ELKS HAVE THEIR ANNUAL OUTING Fine Wcnllicr and Dig Crowd at Beauti ful Lake Ariel. VERY ENJOYABLE TIME WAS HAD I'm .lien's Hnco tho 1'rlnclpnl I'cnt uro oftho Dny-'It Vns Won by Will Wnlklns--Conccrt bv Unuor's Hand nnd Various Other Entertainments. Day Passed Off Without Mishap or Any Unplcnjunt Occurences. The weather clerk, also, evidently be lieves that the Elks are the best peo- plo on earth. Such weather as ho dealt out yesterday showed beyond peradventuro that ho wa3 as good as his word that ho would make up for his neglect of a week ago Thursday In not acquainting himself with the fact that It was tho day selected for the Elks' annual outing. Twenty-Hvo carH loaus or peopio iook navaiuugu ui mu day to enjoy tho delightful rldo to Ariel and the Invigorating ozono which abounds tbout the lake. Tho crowd went up on four trains, two In tho morning and two in the nfternoon. The train which left tho Erie and Wyoming station at 1:30 p. m. was tho principal excursion train, being mado up ot ten coaches and carrying 600 people. The band camo from the grove to meet It and with a lively quickstep headed the excursion ists In their march or rather rush for tho picnic grounds. AFTERNOON'S LARGE CROWD. It had been rather quiet during the earlier part of tho day, but after the arrlvnl of tho main body of the pleas ure seekers at 2:30 things began to liven up. Extra help was put to work at tho lemonade and other stands and the various entertainment committees rolled up their sleeves and pitched In. To say that everybody had a good time Is unnecessary. The Elks never allow their guests to have anything else but a good time and yesterday, as may bo well believed, was no ex ception. To tell tho truth, the lake was some what of a superfluity yesterday. Maybe It was that the crowd didn't take to Its chief Ingredient or that the grove offered more enticements, but be that as It may, It was poorly patronized, most of tho excursionists satisfying themselves with a cursory glnnco at Its beautiful expanse nnd a casual comment on Its attractiveness. They were, however, to tell the the truth again. Justified In preferring the grove to tho lake, for all the fun cen tered In the latter place and there was no stint of that self-same fun. FAT MEN'S RACE. Chief among the features of the day was tho fat men's race, which was pulled off at 4 o'clock. There were six entries, the contestants and their weights being as follows: W. W. Wat kins, 220 pounds; County Commission er John Demuth, 212 pounds; Tom Jones, 240 pounds; Tom Dunn, 287 pounds; Joe Jeffreys, 264 pounds; Chief P. J. Hlckey, 200 pounds. The course was 25 yards, and tho prize a silk um brella. Watklns nnd Demuth got the start, and as thoy blocked the whole width of the course no one could get past them and they finished in the order named. Dunn took a cut through tho brush and reached the tape first, but ho was protested and after a bit ter wrangle was ruled out by Referee Billy Craig and Starter Alex Dunn. ChlaT Hlckey afterwards challenged the winner and another contest Is like ly. The time was 2:40. Among the other Interesting features were a slack wire exsibltlon by tho Coleman brothers, a lightning drill ex hibition by Professor Frutchy, and last but far from least a concert by Bauer's band, lasting for an hour. The day passed off without mishap or unpleasant occurrences of any kind, nnd the excursionists tpon their re turn, last night, voted, with one accord, that It was, as usual, tho gala excur sion event of tho year. AN ACTION IN EJECTMENT. Drought by Jackson Jtlcrrywcntlicr Agninst Three Defendants. Testimony In an ejectment suit brought by Jackson Merryweather, tho well-known colored barber, against the Scranton Savings bank and Trust com pany, Attorney Mllo J. Wilson and John Clark, of Green nidge, was heard yesterday In the arbitration room of tho court house beforo Arbitrators James E. Watklns, L. P. Wedeman and John F. Murphy. Tho plaintiff was lepresented by Attorneys Vosburg & Dawson and W. E. Davis, and the de fendants by Warren & Knapp. In 1893 tho plaintiff owned two prop erties In this city, one at Green Ridge, and tho other on Gibson street. There was a mortgage against them, held by the Dime bank, and the Trust company had a judgment note.

A tnlo did becomo necessary, and Mr. Wilson, who Is a director of tho Sav ings bnnk and Trust company, as well as Its attorney, bid the property In for the bank. The bank sold tho property to Mr. Clark. Beforo the salo was mode Mr. Merryweather served notlco on Mr. Clark that ho owned tho property. Ills contention Is that the sale ot tho Gibson street property was sufficient to meet his liabilities, and that Mr. Wilson, as his attorney, could not buy tho property for any one but him. Tho bank and Mr. Wilson, It Is held, merely acted ns trustee for the plaintiff. There will Le another hearing Monday. SPITTINQ IN CARS MUST CEASE. Violntors of This Ilulo Will Bo Ejected by Conductors. Tho cfflccrs of tho Scranton Street Railway company have tired of the abuse of tho rulo prohibiting spitting on the floors of trolley caw and have given unusually binding orders to tho company employes. Tho order directs n forcible ejection of persons who per sist In violating the rule. Following Is a copy of instructions furnished conductors yesterday: The attention of conductors is called to a notlco In tho cars regarding spitting on the floor. This order Is to bo enforced within tho limits of tho city of Scranton and con ductors aro requested to carefully note tho following Instructions: In caso a passenger does not observe the order call his attention to tho notlco In tho car, and politely request the- pag scngor to otservo it. Should any pas senger, having been reoucsted to obsorvo tho order, refuse to do so, stop tho car and request such passenger to leavo tho car. If he refuses to leavo the car, coll an oftlrcr and lequest him to remove tho passenger from the car. If there Is no otllcnr In sight, eject him, using only such force as Is necessary, and If necessary calling on tho motorman to asslct. Con ductors must at all times bo courteous nnd not enter Into en argument over tho OTder, which must be enforced. Some time ago pursuant to a resolu tion adopted by the board of health the company posted In Its cars notices pro hibiting spitting on the floors but the rulo has been generally Ignored. As the Jurisdiction c-f the board ot health Is confined to the city limits the order of the company Is likewise confined. BELIEVED TO BE INCENDIARY.

It Is believed by flro department of ficials that Incendiarism caused the fire which destroyed tho dwelling of Charles Katznlger, on James street, Little England, Thursday night.
