Bourke and John H. Bonner represented the defendant nnd Beale & Boylo the pros ecutrix. It appears Mrs. O'Horo and her nep hew bargained to divide the returns of a policy she had on the life of a Mrs. Brady, In consideration of Evans having helped her pay the premiums while her husband was out west. The woman died recently and tho company In which the insurance was held sent on a check for $560. For fear Mrs. O'Hora's husband would interfere In the bargain between herself and her nephew It was agreed that the letter should be delivered to Evans' house. Letter Carrier Jenkins did this but when Mr. O'Hora heard of it he threat ened prosecution and the carrier went back to Evans to get the letter. Evans refused to give It up and still retains It. Mrs. O'Hora. It is alleged, agreed according to five witnesses that Evans should endorse the check with her name, get It cashed and divide the amount. When her husband Interfered she went back on the alleged agree ment and yesterday at the hearing re pudiated the whole alleged bargain. Alderman Howe said he felt satisfied that the case would get Into court sometime and decided In order to save all parties extra annoyance to send it there at once. He accordingly held Evans In $700 ball to answer at court. T. F. Leonard became his bondsman. OBITLJARY.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. Under this heading short letters of in. terest will bo published when accompa nied, for publication, by the writer's name. The Tribune will not be held re sponsible for opinions here expressed.) AIivrvs Gives Justice. Editor of Tho Tribune. Sir: Tho article In the Times of this evening under the caption of "Alderman Kellow's Action Criticised" seems to bo the act of an over exhllerated person, tho main facts being that In civil cases tho alderman after hearing every witness (without being a member of the honor able Lackawanna bar) gives his Judgment according to tho evidence brought to bear upon the case. Alderman Kcllow always tries to render Justlco to all comers and without a doubt, If allowed by some promising young attorneys, will succeed. George F. Kellow, Alderman. Scranton, Pa., July 22, 1897.
