He doesn't really need the exercise, and much time, not to mention shoe leather and strength, Is consumed. A Madison avenue lady had recently began negotiations with a cook who had not yet put in permanent appear ance at her new victim's residence. One day this week she had occasion to send her daughter, a small girl, to the home of the lady In question. The lat ter asked the child If her mother was not as well as usual, when the latter day youngster pursed up her lips and remarked, with decision: "Ma said I wasn't to tell everything I know." There is still a vacancy In the domestic economy of a Madison avenue estab lishment. A well-known resident of this city, who is incidentally somewhat absorbed in politics, missed his eye-glasses yes terday morning and after a vain search, called up a messenger boy and sent home for them. The boy returned after a more or less reasonable length of time, announcing that the missing property could not be found, for the sender's wife had looked everywhere. The prominent citizen fell to making sarcastic refrences about tho way wo men look for things, dwelling particu larly upon tho fact that ho told "her" to fix that guard the day before, which of course she failed to do. After spend ing some time in lamentations and an noyed discourse over his loss, lie was asked by another man, who happened to be In the room, If he couldn't man age to get along for a whlleVlth those glasses, Indicating a pair that lay on it V. 5V y Early Fall .Shapes and Colors.

A halt-score of anxious-browed girls and boys met In a High school recita tion room yesterday to take examina tion. There wnsn't a breath of fresh air In tho great npartment and It was a long time before anybody ventured to open a window. It wns much like the occasions Inst year when about fif teen teachers were gathered In a close, stilling room where, whenever they opened a window, It was promptly closed .by the Janitor, because the High school was fitted up with a costly sys tem nf ventilation, which, although It didn't work for a month or two, was alleged to ventilate, and therefore had to afford the ventilation, Imaginary or otherwise. The only circulation allowed was that necessary for the bonds. PERSONAL;. Miss Esther Moses, of Multye-rry street, hns returned from Atlantic City. Itev. I A. Delurey, O. 8.

WAS A BIG BROTH 0' A BOY IN '98 Mnrlln Moran, ol Providence, Lived to Pass (he Century Mark. HIS SUPPOSED AQB WAS 117 YEARS Kept n Snloon Ncnrlv All Ilia Life nnd Wns Seldom Soon Without Ilia l'ipo in His .Moiith-.Shavcd Him self Until n Few Years Ago nnd Up to About Two Years Since Ho Could Itcnd His l'rnvor-llook. Hns llccn in tho Country Over 00 Ycnrs. Martin. Moran, of Providence, who who easily Scranton's oldest citizen, and possibly the oldest man in the state, died yesterday morning at G o'clock. Just how old ho wns no one knows, except possibly the keepers of the par ish records In Westport, County Mayo, Ireland, where Moran was christened some time towards the wane of the last century. That he was over 100 years old Is certain but how much over It enn only be conjectured. Ills grandson, John F. Moran, a con ductor for the Scrnnton Railway com pany, snld Inst night that his grand father wns 117 years of age, but other members of the family doubted this, ftaylng that no one could say with any degree of accuracy how old he was. Tho grandson bases his assertion on a statement made to him by the old man about two years ago, that he was then about 115 years of age. The two were having a chat and In a casual way the grandson asked the old man to try and flgurn out how old he wns. "Well," the old follow replied, "I don't know, to tell the truth, but I must be according my 'best calculations, about 11 !i years now." RECKONING HIS AGE. From two fixed facts Moran's age can be figured out to be all of 117 years. When he was married in Ire land ho was 40 years of age, which he remembered from tho fact that his birth record was looked up at the time. Ills three sons were all born in Ire land, nnd there is a difference of about ten years between the age of the old est one, Hugh, and tho youngest, Thom as. He came to this country and spent a short time In Philadelphia, at which port he landed. He walked from Philadelphia to Car bondale and remained there for some time. Then he moved to Sport Hill, Punmnre, and opened a saloon. He of ten told that tho only hard "day's" work he ever did In his life was a half a day he worked in Leggett's gap, when the Delawnre, Lackawanna and Western read was being put through to Great Bend. He quit because they would not allow him to smoke on duty. The Leggett's gap road was built Just about fifty years ago. Adding forty, tho ago at which he was married, to ten, the number of years he must have remained in Ireland after his marriage, and fifty, the time that has elapsed since he worked on the Leggett's gap road, he would be an even hunedred, but to, this must be added the years that he spent in Philadelphia and Car bondale, before he settled in Sport Hill, which would easily make his age any were from one hundred and ten to one hundred and twenty years. RETAINED HIS SENSES. In addition to being the oldest man in the region, Moran was possibly the most remarkable old man that has been ever called to public attention hereabouts. Up to about two years ago he had as good use of his senses as al most any man of half his years, and it is less than three years, so his sons say, since he ceased shaving himself. He could read his prayer-book, as ho used to say to himself, "as well as the priest," and he had but one eye at that, the sight in the other having been destroyed by a cataract which formed when he was aboard ship coming to this country. Moran was a saloonkeeper nearly all his life and was what might be called a steady drinker. He was an Inveter ate user of tobacco, his pipe and him self being Inseparable companions from his boyhood days until a week before his death. Two sons survive him, Hugh, who Is between 55 and CO years, and Thomas, who is nbout 48. Neither knows his age positively. The third son, John, who died four years ago nt the age of 40, left two children, John F. Moran, of Providence, and Mrs. Hannah Kelly, of 431 Lackawanna avenue. The other grandchildren are Hugh, Mary, Kate and Martin Moran, children of Thomas Moran. The centenarian's wife died about five years ago. She, like many extremely old persons, had no accur ate knowledge of her age, but It Is sup posed she was about S3 years old. The funeral will take place Thursday morning from his late residence, 503 Oak street. A requiem mass will be celebrated at Holy Rosary ohurch and Interment made in Hyde Park Catho lic cemetery. DOCTOR'S HORSE RAN AWAY. It Trnvorscd Several Illocks in the lliisiiiess District. A runaway horse, owned by D-. Bernstein, created no little excitement yesterday morning while the owner was making a professlor.nl call on Penn avenuo the animal became frightened and ran through Linden street to W yo ming nvenue. In rounding the Wyoming avenue corner the horse headPd toward Lacka wanna avenue, but collided with tho curb in front of the St. Cloud hotel ond was caught. Tho hind legs of the horse were Injured. WHERE THE BOOTY WENT. The Hoys Who Hroke Into tho No. 2 School lluilding Hold tho .Stud". In Alderman Millar's spacious court room last evening nine little black birds sat In a row: Edward O'Brien, William Creedon, John Murray, James Moriarlty, John Flynn, John Feeney, Patrick Ryan, Palmer Uurke and John Connery, all under 15 years, and some barefooted. They were present ns spectators in tho case where flvo of their boy friends had been arrested for breaking Into tho No. 2 school building on Orchard street. Frank Ryan and Mlko Burke, 13 and 12 respectively, were discharged, they having turned state's evidence. Frank Rynn'a. mother drew down upon her head a fine of $2.50 for contempt of court, becauso she was prompting her son when Alderman Millar was ques tioning him. Patrick Callahan also was discharged. John Kelley, 14 years old, denied hav ing anything to do with the robbery. The boy was nlono at tho hearing, his father not taking enough Interest to at tend. Tho boy was held under $300 ball to nppenr at court nnd tho case was declared dismissed. The nine little blackbirds nnd twenty other spectators were going out when Dennis Kelllher, with his mother, ar rived. Dennis was tho only other de fendants. Ho told a straightforward story to Alderman Millar. Ho nnd Kelley had effected an entrance to tho school last Wednesday by lifting a window. They cut oft fifteen feet of lead pipe and took tho pendulums from six clocks. They also carried away flvo bells. Tho lead they sold to Gunsmith L. W. Tlsdel, of Wyoming avenue, for $1.30. There wns thirty pounds. Tho bells nnd pendulums were sold to a Junk man, Benney by name, of Raymond court, who paid the two boys twelvo cents for the lot. A warrant will bo Issued today for Benny's arrest on a charge of receiving stolen goods. Thomas Conery, who prosecuted tho case, merely wanted to locate tho stolen goods and havo tho fixtures replaced. Ho has withdrawn all further prosecu tion against tho boys. Mr. Conery's wife is Janltress of No. 2 school build ing. MONEY FOR THE STRIKERS. Through tho Central Labor Union 925 Wns Contributed Yesterday.

President Flaherty immediately mail ed the check. The delegation from the strikers, W. W. Plasterer and Edward Fox, who are in this city, aro meeting with great success. Over $150 has been forwarded. CLARK VEIN ABANDONED. Mine Inspector Orders Work to Cease at the Von Storcb Slialt175 Out of Employment. Inspector Pytherlck recently visited the Clark vein of the Von Storch mines and declared It In unsafe condition for further operations. Tho mine is operated by the Dela ware and Hudson Canal company, and this vein has given the company much trouble recently on account of contin ual "squeezing." The inspector deemed it very dangerous, and to avoid a prob able repetition of the Twin shaft dis aster, notified the company to 'that ef fect. The employes, 175 men and boys, were yesterday Instructed to remove all their tools, ns they will abandon tho work ings In this vein. There is some likeli hood of the coal being worked from the Leggctts Creek shaft, and It Is possible that nearly all of the men, who loso their places In the Von Storch shaft. will be employed at the Leggetts Creek and other mines. NEW SHOE CONCERN. Sol. Kline, Well Known Here, Is nt Its I lend. Mr. Sol Kline, who is well and favor ably known In local business circles, is at the head of a new business enter prise, known as the Kline Store com pany, which has purchased the stock SOL KLINE. nnd goodwill of the Famous shoe store, at 326 Lackawanna avenue. Mr. Kline successfully conducted a large mercantile establishment in this city several years ago, and became one of our most popular merchants on ac count of his fair dealing and business like methods. Mr. Kline announces a great clearing sale, commencing Thursday morning, and In order that the entire stock may be sold out, to make room for the new goods, which the company havo al ready purchased, the Famous stock will be sold at astonishing low prices. In fact, lower than ever heard of here abouts. Some Idea of the magnitude of this sale can be gained by a perusal of the display advertisement of the Kline Shoe company in this issue.

Pearl Roberts, uged three months, In fant child of Mr. and Mrs. Steven Roberts, of Frlnk street. Funeral this morning und Interment at Jermyn, wft ONE WAS KILLED AND TWO ESCAPED Two Serious Accidents Yesterday on the Railroads. DURYEA WOMAN INSTANTLY KILLED ShoAvns Wnllilngon tho D., I,. & W. Tracks Ncnr Tnylor--l'linctoii Con taining Mrs. 1'. W. Gallagher nnd JUiss Cnislo Jones, of Dickson Cltv, Struck by n Conl Trnin nt tho .llnr vln Crossing--Vclilclo Wns Demol ished but Its Two Occupants Wore Uninjured. One woman, Mrs. John Nally, of Dur yea, was 'killed on the railroad tracks yesterday. Two others. Mrs. P. W. Galla gher, and her sister, Miss Casslc Jones, of Dickson City, the latter a saleswo man nt the Globe Warehouse, narrow ly escaped death in a second accident. The accident to Mrs. Gallagher and Miss Jones happened at 7.30 o'clock at the Marvin' crossing of the Delaware and Hudson company, on North Main avenue. Their escape was marvellous. The carriage In which they were driv ing wns demolished by a train of cars, and the two women were thrown out, but both escaped serious Injury. The Marvlne crossing has always been considered a dangerous point. It Is used to move cars from the main Delaware and Hudson tracks to the LeggcttB Creek colliery, west of Provi dence. Approaching the crossing on Main avenue the track dips, slightly increasing the danger of the place. It is necessary, at that point, to back the cars In to the colliery switches. THE COLLISION. This was what was being done last night. Engine No. 78 was pushing a long train of empty cars and the first car was within ten feet of the cross ing when the phaeton In which the two women were seated came In sight. The horse they were driving was a spirited little animal and when Mrs. Gallagher, who held the reins, saw the light from the brakeman's lantern, as he sat on the first car, she cut the animal with the whip, Tho horse and front wheels of the phaeton cleared the track, but the train struck the rear wheels and pushed the buggy a distance of twenty feet across the road to a high bank, where the two women were thrown out. The horse was knocked down, but regained Its. feet, broke away from the buggy and sped awny toward Dickson City. The train passed on. Patrolman FInley Ross, who wit nessed the accident from a point further down the road, rushed to the aid of the two women. They were un hurt, save for a few scratches by con tact with the ground. An Idea of the narrow escape of Mrs. Gallngher and Miss Jones may be known from the fact that the rear axle of the carriage was bent until it re sembled a pair of scissors. Both of the rear wheels were broken oft and smashed. MRS. .NALLY KILLED INSTANTLY. Mrs. John Nally, of Duryea, was struck and instantly killed near Tay lor station yesterday afternoon by pas senger train No. 10, duo In Scranton at 5.48 o'clock. The details of the fatality arc very meagre, owing to the haste In which the remains were removed to Duryea, and the fact that but few peo ple witnessed or knew of the accident. Tho woman was In the stone cut a few hundred yards below the Taylor station when she met her death. The place Is dangerous, owing to the short nnd decisive curve there. The woman's body was horribly mangled. Engineer Roberts brought the train to a stop and the remains were picked up, placed In the baggage car and brought to this city. It was learned on the way that the woman's home was In Duryea, and when the train reached this city the body was taken from the train and carried across tho station platform nnd pluced on passenger train No. 5, going south at 6 o'clock. Coroner Longstreet Is out of tho city but Deputy Coroner Pennypacker, when the case was mentioned to him last night by a Tribune reporter, stated that no report of the death had been made to him.
