Yesterday.-lllpli itlnai with Speclnl
.Music.
Yesterday marked the twenty-fifth
anniversary of the ordination of Kev.
V. J. McMnnus, of St. Paul's Itomnn
Catholic church, Green Ridge. The
occasion was quite elaborately celebrat
ed and Father McManus' general pop
ularity makes it safe to say that tho
Jubilee would havo been even more
elaborately celebrated If Its approach
had been known In due time.
Father McManus made no announce
ment of tho event hut his congregation
learned of it n few .lays ago and at
ones began preparations to observe It.
Tho newspapers made note of its ap
proach and despite the modesty of the
Jubllarlan tho day was made to him
one that he will ever cherish.
On the eve of tho Jubilee thi children
of the parcchlnl school gave an enter
tainment In his honor at tho school
hall. Father McManus occupied a seat
in front of the stnge, his assistant Kev.
J. P. Dunn, and Kev. J. S. Mollltt, of
St. Jchn's, South Scranton. sitting on
either side of him. The hall was filled
to overflowing. The piogramme open
ed with a tong of greeting by the chil
dren. It was entitled "P.lnsr Out Glad
Bells" and was composed and set to
music for the occasion Ijy the sisters
of the parochial school, who also pre
pared all the other numbers with which
tho children entertalnirJ.
ADDRESSES AND PRESENTATION.
There were addresses, allegories, dia
logues and choruses, all prepared es
pecially for the occasion, and a presen
tation of a. old pyx and oil stocks by
the graduating class of 1897. The en
tertainment concluded with an alle
gory in which twenty-five little girls,
each representing a year of the quar
ter of a century Father McManus hns
been in the priesthood, offered con
gratulations. Father McManus, when called upon
for nn address, spoke feelingly of the
Joy tho occasion afforded him and
thanked the children and the Sisters
for their kind remembrances and well
wlshes. He said he regretted that he
had not made his Jubilee of a public
nature, that all his friends might have
enjoyed the pleasure which the even
ing had afforded him.
Yesterday morning Father McMnnus
celebrated a high mass In honor of the
day. The altar and sanctuary were
beautifully decorated and the music for
the mass, which was of a high order of
merit, was rendered by the children's
choir. A jubilee hymn, composed by
tho Sisters, was rendered during the
mass and at its conclusion the Te Deum
was sung.
During the day Father McManus was
the recipient of many congratulations
and substantial remembrances. The
Blessed Virgin's Sodality presented a
set of library furniture, the Angels'
Sodality also gave, furniture; a tea and
coffee set was received from the ladles
of St. Joseph's society; a silver water
set from the Sisters of St. Joseph's
Foundling Home; a burse and stole of
gold embroidered white silk from the
Sisters of St. Paul's school.
MANY REMEMBRANCES.
There were also presents from many
individuals of the parish and from
priests of other parishes; also letters
of congratulation from a number of
Protestant neighbors and ft lends.
Last evening the girls of the gradu
ating class tendered a dinner at the
convent In honor of the Jubllarlan.
Father McManus was ordained at St.
Peter's cathedral, July 14, 1872, by Rt.
Rev. AVllllam O'Hara, D. D. Five other
priests were at the same time raised
to holy orders. They were Rev, P. J.
Murphy, of Olyphant; Rev. P. C. Hurst,
of Lovelton; Rev. T. J. Rea, of Sugar
Notch; Rev. P. J. O'Rourke, who died
in Olyphant some years ago, and Rev.
John McDermqtt, who died In Plains,
ten years ago.' Rev. Father Rea, of
Sugar Notch, had a big celebration of
his jubilee yesterday, a parade of the
Catholic societies being among the fea
tures. TO DETECT "LEAN" MILK.
Unbcoclc Tester Secured Yustcnlny
by Pood Inspector Ciillun.
Food Inspector Culicn yesterday re
ceived a Babcock milk tester, which
he was authorized to procure dv the
board of health at Its last meeting.
It !b a chemical-mechanical tester
and Is said to bo infallible. A sample
of the milk to be tested is mixed with
sulphuric ncld which causes the fat
and oaselne to separate from tho other
substances which may be In the milk.
The whole mixture Is placed in a
long-necked bottle and this bottlo Is
pet in a pan which is made to revolve
rapidly by means of multiple wheels.
After being churned in, this violent
fashion for seven minutes the pan is
filled with hot water and whirled
ngaln for another minute or so.
This causes the fat w&ich is the
lighter of the two materials to pack it
self In the long neck of tho bottle and
by means of a scale marked on the
bottle, after the manner of a. measure
on a pharmacist's vial, the percentage
of fat Is readily dlscernable.
Inside of ten minutes the inspector
can tell if old "Rrindle" has been fed
on the surplus potato crop; if the milk
cans were left out durlnsy tho rain
storm, or If tho big hearted dairyman's
wife skimmed off a little cream for
Tabby and the little ones.
STACK WAS OVERHEATED.
Sot l'lro to Roof of Boiler House at
Richmond Colliery.
An overheated stack leadlnc from a
furnace set fire to thfi roof of tho boiler
house at tho Richmond colliery near
tho Dickson City line, at 3.30 yesterday
afternoon.
The roof was entirely destroyed but
no other damage was done by the
fire.

CITY FATHERS HAVE AN ENCOUNTER.
Commonor Shcrldnn Attacks Select
man Robinson nt I.uno's Cnfe.
After the Joint meeting, or attempted
joint meeting of councils Tuesday
night, a number of the Democrats ad
journed to Lane's cafe on Spruce Btrept
and while lunching Select Councllmnn
Robinson dropped In. Common Coun
cilman Sheridan, of tho Nineteenth
ward, mndff pome slighting remark to
the effect that Robinson was a rene
gade Democrat.
Robinson retorted by calling Sheri
dan a boodler. Sheridan rejoined with
a blow that sent tho selectman to
the floor. Friends Interfered at this
Juncture nnd prevented further dam
age. MORE WORK FOR MINERS.
Ten Hours Now Constitutes a Day's
Work at the Collieries of tbe
D L. and W. Co.
Orders have been Issued by General
Coal Agent W. R. Storrs, of the Dela
ware, Iaekawnnna and Western com
pany, directing the collieries of that
company to work 10 hours a day and u
full week. Tills order will continue
for nn indefinite length of time so far
as any one knows. The officials seen,
state that It represents really nothing
more than the usual summer demand
which comes this year later than usu
al. To all appearances the bituminous
strike has nothing whatever to do with
the increased demand for the effects of
the strlko arc not yet apparent here
abouts. There has come a. general demand
for nearly all sizes of coal and this ac
counts for the Issuing of the Increased
time order. The William Connell,
William T. Smith and Pancoast col
lieries will also work full tlm
Tho conclusion to work about threo
quarter time In the Delaware and Hud
son collieries had Just been reached
when The Tribune reporter appeared
yesterday. This time which stands for
the present may at any time be in
creased to full time In all collieries. It
entirely depends ujion the continued
demand now current for nil Lizes.
In tome casea this demand is great
er than the supply. In other cases a
winter surplus Is available to a cer
tain limit. In answer to tho question
as to how far the bituminous coal strike
effected them, it was stated that no
effect whatever is felt.
The Delaware and Hudson coal trade
Is far removed from soft coal influence
and exists in ft hard coal burning terri
tory so that it will not be influenced
by tho strike unless lontr continued
and then probably only so far as a de
mand for small sizes might exist.
HE WAS AFRAID TO Q0 HOME.
New VorkLnd Picked Up Hero After
Trnmpinu for Six Weeks.
Lieutenant Spellman and a squad
of officers from the North End pre
cinct picked up a gang of five tramps
in a freight car on the Ontario and
Western road near the Park Place
station early yesterday morning.
One of them was a thlrteen-year-old
boy who gave his name as Emll Swart?,
and his residence New York city. He
told the police that he left home six
weeks ago. He went to Coney Island
one day and because his chum who
rad the fare got separated from him
and left him at the Island over night
lie feared to go home and started out
to seek his fortune.
He failed to find it in Jersey City,
Port Jervls, Lackawaxen or Hawley.
0 he decided to move farther west.
He was thitherward bound when
halted by the police. He says he does
not know the four men who were in
the car with him and avers that they
came there after he had arrived.
His father, Frank Swartz, a cigar
maker living at 124 Stanton street,
was reached by telegraph and will
c'ome on for his truant boy. The young
wonderer is at present occupying a cell
In tho woman's ward of the central
station hou3e.

Slashed Peter Donahue In the Side with
a Keen-Edged Razor.
INJURED MAN IN THE HOSPITAL

Running from tho Shoulder Ulndrt
to tho End of tho Klhs--I)ontihuo
Remonstrated with Clymcr Uccnuso
tho Latter Hud Threatened to Kill
His Sister, Mrs. Uczlc Smith-. Cut
ter Placed Under Arrest.
The dwelling house situated In the
renr of the llmo yard, near the
West Lackawanna nvenue crossing
of the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western railroad, has again come under
police surveillance. A few weeks ago
It will be recalled a man who was In
the habit of calling at the house struck
one of Keller's drivers with a brick on
the head, Just In front of tho house.
Last evening Peter Donahue, who
boards there with Mrs. Bezle Smith,
was assaulted nnd slashed with n, razor
by Jacob Clymer. Clymer is a brother
of Mrs. Smith and boards with her.
Donahue was seen at the West Side
hospital, whero he was taken by tho
police to have his wounds dressed, and
he said that there had been no fracag.
CLYMER MADE THREATS.
He came home from work shortly be
fore and found Clymer, Mrs. Smith and
Bridget Joyce, of Dodgetown, who was
visiting there, all engaged in conver
sation. Mrs. Smith told him that Cly
mer had threatened, for some unknown
cause, to kill her. Donahue sat down
at the table and remonstrated with
Clymer, as a friend, for making such
threats. Jncob soon afterwards got up
and went to his room and coming back
with a razor, told Peter he would dis
embowel him on the spot.
He followed his words by slashing
Peter In the left side from the end of
the shoulder blade to the end of the
ribs. The keen blade cut through
clothing, flesh and muscle to the bone.
The wound Is about eight Inches in
length and at the lower extremity quite
deep.
The police had to force an entrance
through barricaded doors and all four
parties were arrested. They seemed
more or less under the Influence of
liquor.
DONAHUE IN HOSPITAL.
Donahue was taken to the hospital
by Lieutenant Williams and Patrolman
Gurrel and the rest were confined In
the station house. Clymer immediate
ly went to sleep, apparently uncon
cerned. They will be given a hearing
In the morning.
The injured man cannot account for
his assailant's vicious assault. "Why,"
said he, "I kept that man in food and
home all winter, and what should he
cut me like this for."
THE ROAR OF CANNON.
It Will Ho One of tho I'entnrcs of Huf
Inlo Hill' Wild Wcit Show.
Have you ever heard the roar of
cannon?" The "rattle of musketry" Is
quite common enough, but how about
the "roar?" Every man, woman and
child, who can read at all has read
about It. Those' who live in the vi
cinity of military posts have heard
mcrnlng and evening the' sunrise and
sunset guns. But have even the3e
hcara the real roar of artillery in ac
tion? Not many. Well, you can now
both hear and see the real thing, for
tunon the many novel additions made
to the programme of Buffalo Bill's
wild West and Congress of Rough
Riders of the World are batteries of
flying artillery, and it is Uncle Sam's
own crtlllery, too.
You will see these modern cannons
handled exactly the same as they are
upon a field of battle. The horses will
dash onto the Immense arena with the
enormous guns, the cannon will be
unllmbered, sighted, loaded, aimed,
you will see the lanyard string pulled
and the gun fired, you will see the re
colfl of the gun; tho steam-like puff
of vapor at the muzzle, caused by the
smokeless powder; in short every ab
sorbingly interesting detail of the most
effective, destructive and awful war
faie will be seen more clearly than
it could be seen amid the smoke and
crash of a battlefield and you can see
it all without having to witness the
terrible carnage and dreadful horrors
of actual war.
Tins one feature alone will more than
repay any one for tho visit they may
make to this entirely unique and mar
velous exhibition. It will be here on
Friday, July 30.
