Connecting ltailroud Interfered with
11 tins of Iiohigli Ynllor.
There wus a hearing In the court
house yesterday before viewers Thom
as Reynolds, J. E. Watkins, A. E.
Francolse, Squire Doles, Fred Fuller
and John F. Murphy In the case of.the
Lehigh Valley Coal company ngalnst
the Susquehanna Connecting railroad.
The Connecting company took nine
and one-half acres of land owned by
the Lehigh Valley Coal company for
Its main line, and the viewers were
appointed to decide upon a fair value
for the land.
The tract owned by tho Lehigh peo
ple, through which the railroad passes,
consists of 2SG acres, and was bought
by them some years ago from the
Spring Brook Coal company for $SG,000.
That company. In 18,'6, sank a shuft
ISO feet deep, but never took any coal
from the tract nor has any been taken
up to this time.
The Lehigh people allege that they
Intend in the near future to take coal
from the opening made In I85C and tho
breaker where the coal will be pre
pared for the market was to have been
located on the land that Is now being
used as a rlsht of way for the new
railroad. Compensation Is asked for
tho additional expense nnd inconveni
ence that will arise from selecting an
other site for the breaker. For this
damages ot from $10,000 to $20,000 aro
asked. For the land from $100 to $125
per acre Is asked.
The land In question Is located on
tho top of the hill northeast of Mooslc.
All of the testimony In the case has
been heard by the viewers, and yester
day the closing arguments were made
by Attorney Joseph O'Brien for tho
Lehigh Valley company nnd Attorney
C. Comegys for the Connecting rail
road. FIVE COUNTY C. E. REUNION.
Despite the Weather, It Was Held at

falling heavily but still the excursion
train went out, although the attendance
wus naturally small. Late trains, how
ever," took many to the grounds and as
the day proved to be delightful the af
fair was a great succes, despite tho
discouragements of the morning. Many
excursionists went from Honesdale,
Wllkes-Barre, Carbondule and other
points. Bauer's band accompanied the
excursion.

o'clock. J. C. Manning, of Plttston,

mittee, presided. Itev. K. F. Stoneelph

pate In n parade at that place.
A resolution was Introduced direct
ing the chief engineer of the fire de
partment to order tho companies out

No. 19 was called up and passed on
third rending. It is intended to drnln

sewered, with the exception of the low
ground on Luzerne street west of Main
avenue. Mr. Fellows wanted to know
If the opinion of the city solicitor had
been obtained with reference to the or
dinance. He thought It would bo un
wlso to crente a district nnd have view
ers appointed and then possibly dis
cover that the ordinance was Illegal.
Mr. Hoche said the boundaries of tho
district were defined by the city en
gineer, the proper ofilclnl to perform
such duty, and Inasmuch as viewers
would not bo appointed under, the or
dinance he failed to see tho weight of
Mr. Fellows' argument.
Other ordinances that passed on third
reading provided' for repairs on the
Excelsior Hose wagon and Niagara
Hose reel, construction of a lateral
sewer on Prescott avenue nnd estab
lishing grade on Mineral strcet.between
Mica and Carbon streets.

To the uninitiated the following des
scrlptlon of this piece of work might
not bo amiss. The central portion of
the cornice, which Is of the Doric style,
Is filled with a group of four life-sized
figures. The group in its entirety rep
resents tho means and fruits of Indus
try, and Is expressive of the purpose
of the Institution whose massive front
It adorns.
The centrnl figure Is the Goddess of
Fortune, and from a cornucopia she Is
spilling stores of wealth. At her left
knee Is a child who Is holding up its
hands to catch the falling store. To

trayed as regards his industry nnd
pursuits. On the right reclines the fig

tisans Is held a wreath, beneath which
rests a shield-shaped tablet, on which
Is Inscribed the legends, viz: To the
left "Founded In 1S02;" to the right
"Hebullt in 1S97." Laurel branches
fill out the remaining spaces. The fig
ure is clothed In flowing draperies and
breast shield. The figures of the two
urtlsans are draped about the loins
with loose flowing robes. The child Is
nude. The only other piece of sculptor
work In the city which was watched

DEATH OF TIIOiMAS GLYNN.
He Had liccn ut the Hillside Home
Over Two Years.
Thomas Glynn died at the Hillside
Home yesterday, where he has been
since June 24, 1S95. Death was duo to

Andrew Knowxooncr Snys Thnt He
Madu n Mistake.
Andrew Knowsooner, who was com
mitted to jail Wednesday night for
contempt by Alderman DeLacy yes
terday, said he did an Injustice to Al
derman John P. ICelly, of the Eigh
teenth ward, when, he said that official
told him to act as he did In Alderman
DeLacy's court. It was Alderman Kel
low that he meant and he signed a
statement to that effect.
Alderman Kellow says that Know
sooner must have woefully misunder
stood matters. The only advice he
gnve in the matter was for the accused
to waive a hearing and enter ball.

When Michael Intimated That 11 11

Ilnnlshcd-.Now Ho Seeks the As
sistance of .Mrs. Duggnn. for Ho
litis Not Given Up tliu IIopo of. link
ing Autiie Q,uccn ol His Home.
Mrs. Duggnn, as agent for the Asso
ciated charities, Is not only the one Into
whose ears tho tales of woe, it would
seem, of all humanity are pouted, but
frequently tdie must be the mediator
in cases which demand grent tact, not
to mention foresight.
Yesterday afternoon she was acting
In the capacity of a marriage bureau
when n representative of The Tribune
called. The applicant, Michael Shlm
berger, was evidently In deep trouble,
and as Mrs. Duggnn had proved to bo
a friend In need on a former occasion
he hastened to Implore her aid In Ills
present straits. It was a case of ro
mantic meeting, love and cruel separa
tion at the hands of an obdurate guar
dian. Michael is 47 years old, with four In
cumbrances under fourteen. The ob
ject of his adoration Is 33. She has
one child, an Infant. Michael lives
over near the West Mountain and
works In the Price mine. Some time
ago he was Injured nnd after being In
tho Lackawnna hospital until he be
came convalescent, he was sent to tho
Hillside Home.
MICHAEL MET ANNIE.
Now begins the love pastoral.
Michael, tending sheep In a distant
mendow, beheld Annie, the fnlr Polish
woman, with her baby on her arm. He
loved her at once and she was vvlllln'.
They could not spenk the same tongue,
but love has a common language, and
she promised to marry him. All H1I3
was reckoning without Mr. Beemer.
When the superintendent found out
the state of affairs he refused to per
mit the marriage and Michael, In his
disappointment, threatened a speedy
elopement, whereupon Mr. Beemer
promptly ejected the would-be bride
groom, who In his despair sought -Mrs.
Duggan's kindly Intervention.
"I want my girl," Michael remarked,
with much oratorical effect. "We
would have married been yet already,"
almost weeping with his emotion.
"Yes," said Mrs. Dugran, "but will
you be good to her? You won't beat
her nor got drunk, will you?"
"Neln! nein!" shouted the excited
German. "Never no mofe will I get
some drink again. I will be very goot."
"But how will you make each other
understand?" inquired his interlocutor.
"You can't speak Polish. She doesn't
know German; you'll have to get an
Interpreter."
HE LOVES HER.
"Ach nein" answered Mr. Shlmber
ger. "I lofe her; yes, she lofe me. We
talk. You help me get my girl."
Mrs. Duggan advised him to go be
foro the poor board this afternoon and
plead his case In person and with the
eloquence which ho appears to have
at his command. She delicately sug
gested that he should don a tie and
endeavor to make a good Impression.
"Ach, yes," he exclaimed. "Ich
haben clothes besser ns this; goot coat,
goot necktie, so; goot shirt, good"
But here the agent of the Associated
charities stopped him before he had
the opportunity to give a complete
catalogue of his wardrobe, but today
he will appear beforo the poor board
to ask the 'hand of the girl he loves.
FELL INTO A CESS POOL
