The Bradford (Pa.) Star of a recent
clato says the following pleasant things
of a younV Scrantonlan; "ltaymonrt
Sanderson, the 14-ycar-old son of
DruRKlst Harry Sanderson, of Scran
ton, formerly of this city, called on
Charles Green this morning at Pagnan
& Green's drug store. Mr. Green was
with Mr. Sanderson for years at Tso.
1". Main street. The little fellow, after
answering Inquiries as to his father
and the family, began asking questions
himself. Ho wanted to know all about
trade conditions In the drug Una in this
city and discussed the business In a
manner that would do credit to a. vet
eran and he told of the remarkable
growth of Scranton and of the Im
provements being made In that bust
ling city."
The Colliery Engineer's new building
Is bald to be on the best foundation
yet laid under a structure in the city.
The printing department was moved
last week and as soon as the motors

be flnlshpd by April Five magazines

Colliery Unglncer," "Home Study Mag

Trades," "Home Study for Electrical
Students," "Home Study for Machin

for workitigmen who have not had the

liave not formed habits of thought and
have almost no knowledge of arith
metic. Miss Marion Crane, of Carbondale,
who Is at home during vacation, la
(studying at the Art Students League,
New York, and is a most promising
student, displaying remarkable talent
in her chosen career, which seems to
be in tho direction of magazine illus

a charming picture. Qlbsonlsh In style

Elizabeth Davenport.
SUB RESIDES IN TUB NORTH END
Her 1'nrcnts Married Secretly mid
Her I'ntlicr Disappeared Yc.nrs Ago
n ml lias Not llccit llcnrd from
Slncc--Hls I'ntlicr Died and Much
of Ills I.nrgc Tortuno Aw nits Hither
tho Aligning Son or the I.uttcr's
Daughter.
A fortune valued at about $150,000
seems about to be bestowed upon Eliz
abeth Davenport, a 15-year-old miss,
who resides with her grandparents In
the northern section of the city. Tho
story of her prospective wealth in
volves the romantic marriage ot her
parents about sixteen years ago and
the disappearance of nor father a short
while afterward.
Tho romance began In Plymouth
when S. Irvln Davenport, youth of
10, wooed and won Ellzubeth Davis,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas
Davis, who then resided In that town.
Daveniort was of good parentage and
well-to-do but he was a worldly young
fellow and a match with the Davis
girl was opposed by his parents though
she was attractive, accomplished and
had a voice of such excellence as to bo
In great demand for tho better class of
concerts down the valley. It ended,
os many c. romnnco ends, in a secret
marriage, at Plttstou, by Justice ot tho
Peace Gibbons.
DAVENPORT DISAPPEARED.
The Davis family moved away from
Plymouth about the time the marriage
took place and located at Plttston.
Young Davenport disappeared but re
turned toon after a child was born to
the secretly married couple. Tho mar
riage was then made known. Tho
mother died and the little girl, Eliza
beth, continued living with her moth
er's people, now residents of the North
End.
But tho voung father. He again dis
appeared and this timo for good, Re
ports of him In the groat west were
received but were too meagre to insure
much credit. His parents were well-to-do
and spent considerable money to
llnd a trace of him but to no avail. A
large sum was deposited in a "Wilkes
Barra bank to the son's credit and has
been accumulating Interest ever since.
Not long ago Irvln Davenport, fath
er of the missing son, died at Plymouth
and left quite a fortune bahlnd him.
His only direct heir was tho son.
Recently the grandparents of Eliza
beth Davenport, on her mother's side,
and other relatives obtained authentic
proofs of the secret marriage by
'Squire Gibbons at Plttston and a few
days ngo legai proceedings were in
stituted through Vosburg and Dawson
to recover the missing son's share of
the Davenport estate.
COITRT APPEALED TO.
Applications was made under an old
statute to court to declare S. Irvln
Davenport dead. This old law provides
that after a person has been absent
from homo and unheard of for seven
years he shall, after certain notice and
publication, be declared dead.
In addition to the principal and in
terest deposited In tho bank to the
missing man's credit, he is entitled to
other portions of his father's estate,
making a total of $lf.0,000. The young
daughter and prospective heiress Is
desc: Ibed as a, bi ight and attractive girl
and popular among her playmates In
the neighborhood of the grandparents'
North End home.
AIR. SCRANTON WAS TURNED DOWN.
Then Ho Trained His Batteries on
the Street Commissioner.
Those who read the Scranton Re
publican yesterday was possibly puz
zled to understand the severe criti
cism made upon Street Commissioner
Dunning. The editor of the Republl
can called the street commissioner into
his sanctum last week and told him he
wanted ex-Prothonotary Henry Som
mers appointed to the position of assis
tant street commissioner, as he alleged
had been agreed upon in a deal with
the city hall ring.
Mr. Dunning disavowed having been
a party to any such agreement and
stated further that it would be Im
possible to make the appointment for
the reasons that there was no such
position provided for by ordinance and
again Mr. Summers Is ineligible to hold
office In this city as he Is a resident
of Dunmore.
This did not restrain Mr. Scranton
In his demand but only caused him
to show some anger and make threats.
Yesterday's attack was the fulfill
ment of the threats.
RODHAM-LACKEY NUPTIALS.
Ceremony Performed in the Bride's
Homo on Washington Avenue.
Miss Georglanna Lackey, daughter
of Dr. II. B. Lackey, and Dr. Thomas
B. Rodham, of Purl; Place, were mar
ried yesterday morning at the bride's
home, &23 Washington avenue, by Rev.
Charles Prosser.
lilts Margaret Rodham was brides
maid and the groom was attended by
the bride's brother. After a weddin:;
breakfast Dr. and Mrs. Rodham left at
noon for New York city.
ROBBED OF FIFTY-TWO DOLLARS.
Tnkon from lliirtondcr Klotz's
Clothes While Ho Wns Sleeping.
Henry Klotz, a bartender employed
at John Lohmann's on Lackawanna
avenue, was relieved on Sunday after
noon of a pocket-book containing $52,
It was taken from his trousers pocket
while ho was sleeping In his room on
the third floor of the building.
The suspected thief was traced by
the police to Wilkcs-Harre nnd It is
fjiilte likely he will be arrested.
PLANS FOR SILK FACTORY.
Unvu Been Received and Contract
.Will Soon lie Let.
Plans have been received in this city
for tho new silk ribbon factory of
Levy Brothers o New York proposo to
erect In the Twentieth ward.
It la likely that the contract will bo
awarded within a week. Work on tho
building will then be pushed rapidly
forward,
WAS IT EDDIE BROTHERTON ?
Boy Supposed to llnvo Been Soon
Ncnr VUiito H liven.
Jeremiah Huff, a resident of Ashley,
believes that Eddlo Brotherton, who
mysteriously disappeared from Ashley
on Jan. 19, 1SD4. still lives and that ho
was seen on Saturday at Tannery, a
nillo below "White1 Haven. The boy's
father Is now searching the vlcnlty of
White Haven for tho organ grinder
with whom tho boy Is said to bs.
Young Brotherton left hit home on
Hartford street, Ashley, to play. Rep
utablo witnesses sworo they Baw him
standing In frot.t of an organ which
was played by Rocco Ballatcrlo, a one
armed Italian. Other witnesses test!
fled that they caw a boy o similar
description In company with Hocco and
his daughter Rosa at the corner of
Park avenue and llazlo street, this
city.
Hocco was not arrested until Jan. 27
and had abundant time If he had the
boy to cot him out of sight. Tho ar
rest was made In Raymond court, this
city, by a Wllkes-Ilnrre officer. Im
mediately after tho arrest of Rocco
and his girl Rosa they wore separated
and the little girl wns taken Into the
otllce ot Chlet-of-pollce Simpson whero
she was thoroughly questioned regard
ing the movements of herself and fath
er. She said they took tho boy to
Luzerne but further than that refused
to mako any statement. Rocro was
tried In V likes Barrs and acquitted.
BICYCLE ORDINANCE.
Draft of the Measure as It Will Probably
Be Presented to Councils by
the Committee.
Bicycles are not to be registered,
labelled and taxed. At least not If
councils will agree to tho ordlnanco
which tho streets and bridges com
mittee of the upper branch has pre
pared. There is a question as to tho
constitutionality of such a provision
and this coupled with tho fact that
Rochester, which was the first city
to try it, has repealed it, prompted the
committee to leave It out.
The ordinance as it will be presented
Is given below. Mr. Chittenden, who
was delegated to embody the com
mittee's Ideas, finished drafting the
measure yesterday. The question of
speed, he says, Is as yet an open ques
tion and is liable to be changed be
fore It succeeds In tunning the guant
let ot committees and councils. The
clause limiting speed to four miles
an hour on the left hand sldo of the
street Is an Idea, original with Mr.
Chittenden, but he feels that It will
receive the endorsement of the other
members of the committee as they
were looking for some means of com
pelling the bicyclists to keep to the
right. This Is the ordinance as It
will probably bo submitted for coun
cils' consideration:
Tho following acts aro declared acts of
nuisances, and the following penalties are
attached:
The riding of any bicycle, tricyclo of
unlcycle on tho public streets without a
bell that c.in bo heard at least thirty
yards.
The riding of any bicycle, tricycle or
unlcycle on the pudlc streets after dark
without a light, which sha)l bo plainly
visible in front and on both sides of the
rider.
Riding u b!cclo without ono hand on
tha handle bar.
Riding a bicycle crosswise or curving
to or fro, without control of tho ma
chine or in any way so as to Impede
travel on the public streets.
Riding without keeping at least one foot
on pedals or coasting on any of the streets
or highways of tho city.
Bicycle rldprs falling to ring bell In ap
proaching intersections ot principal or
paved streets.
'For failure to give name and address
when asked in caso of collision with foot
passengers on crosswalks.
For riding a bicycle, tricycle or unlcyclo
at a grcter speed than ten miles an hour
on tho public streets, between Intersec
tions, for crossing intersections of any
paved street at a greater speed than five
miles an hour, and for turning any corner
of a street at a greater speed than threo
miles an hour, or for riding faster than
four miles an hour when on the left side
of tho street.
Tho throwing ot any tacks or glass or
crockery In tho public streets, or neglect
to Immediately remevo tho somo by per
sons accidentally dropping them in the
streets.
For riding more than three bicycles
abreast without permission from the prop
er authorities.
Riding a bicycle, tricycle or unlcycle
on the sidewalks of tho city day or night.
Any person or persons who shall com
mit, advise or abet any of tho aforesaid
acts of nuisance shall forfeit and pay to
tho said city for the uso ot tho city a sum
not less' than two ($2) dollars and not more
than ten ($10) dollars for each offense to
bo collected before the mayor or any al
derman ho may designate: and all arrests
under tntf ordinance shall bo by tho po
lice on sight or by warrant icgularly is
sued. A meeting of the committee will te
called in the course of a week to pass
upon tho measure before It goes to
council.

WANT TO DISPLACE
SENATOR M'DONALD
Democratic Councilmcn Believe He Can
not Be Elected.
ANOTHER CAUCUS TO BE HELD
Tliono Who Think tho Ei-Senntor
Has Hnd His Dny Will Present the
Names ofOthor Candidates for the
Consideration of tho Councilmcn.
Tlicro Is Not Much Likelihood That
Thoso Mentioned Can Command n
Larger Following.
Dissension has brokemi out In tho
Democratic councllmanlo oamp and
the hertofore likely retention of Mr.
Torrey as city solicitor Is now virtually
assured.
For somt timo past there has been a
spirit of restlessness pervading tho
camp. Some of the more restless ones
believing It Impossible to wield tha
Democratic majority with McDonald as
the candidate have been In divers
ways throwing out hints that he ought
to got down and out and let some ono
else make a try. Thoso of their num
ber who are staunch adherents of tho
senator's cause were wont to become
very much wroth when such an ar
rangement was oven whispered, and as
a consequence thoso who favored a
change of candidates dared not do
much more than simply think their
views.
HAVE BECOME BOLDER.
Lately, however, particularly since
tho last ineffecutal attempt at an elec
tion, lost Tuesduy night, these timor
ous ones havo become a trifle bold.
Fit st they made? the suggestion. In a
round about way and with, not a little
fear and trembling. Then they be
came more daring and openly and di
rectly said a change was the only
chance of escaping defeat. Within the
last few days the restless ones have
besn actually rash, not even stopplns
at suggesting a caucus to choflo a
standard bearer In place of McDonald.
The suggestion took tho shape of a
call and "before next Tuesday night the
Democrats will get together to fight
It out.
While all this was going on the Mc-Donald-flrst-last-and-always
men have
been vainly trying In every manner
they could devise to stem the now
candidate tide. They argued and rea
soned and coaxed and then seeing
these efforts futile began to make
threats. Now affairs have come to
such a pass that the one party Is say
ing "we will havo a new man and the
other la saying with equal emphasis
"You'll have McDonald or no one," "no
one," of course, meaning with no re
flection Intended Republican victory.
Each side is accusing the other of con
templated treachery and all In all
things are looking anything but rosy
in the fold of tho enemy.
THEY ARE CALM.
The Republicans on tho other hand
are sitting calmly by, with their man
to all Intents and purposes elected,
worrying not c whit about the solidity
of their ranko and confident that by
the time the vacation season is over
and all their forces can' be once more
