The German frauleln pines away In silence, the French girl laughs, 'Pouf, there are as good flsh In the sea as wero ever caught,' while tho Ameri can damsel immediately consults a lawyer regarding her chances of win ning In a breach of promise suit."

The woman ap peared ueiore Alderman Millar with her face literally nmnsiherl fm Vio- husband's brutal assault.

Tho registration of students at the Scranton Conservatory of Music still continues and everything points to a largo attendance this term. Visitors and students speak in the highest praise of the beautiful rooms occupied by the Institution, and their admirable adaptation to tho purposes of the Con servatory. A CiKNTLU ItUMJNDUU of tho value of an advertisement In The Tribune's cent-a-word column can be verified by a fair trial. Empty houses aro quickly supplied with tenements; persons wanting boarding houses and rooms do not waste their money in making known their needs.

NOT APPRECIATED Common Council Repudiates Air. Sweeney and Ills Colleagues. SAID THEY WERE A BIT TOO FRESH Hnd No Itlght to Go Smelling for Vlco nnd Immorality ns n Committoo ol Couucil"Mr Sweeney Replies by Averring Thnt His Opponents Don't Want tho City to He Nice nnd Clean, Mornllv Speaking. Common council sat down hard on its vlco and immorality committee last night. It told Mr. Sweeney and his col leagues that they were too officious and by their over-ofllclousness had made tho common council tho laughing stock of the town. A good many other things wero also said and one of the commit tee's critics said In an insinuating kind of a tone that there were a good many things unsaid that could be said. This is the report submitted by tho committee that caused all tho bother: Scranton, Pa., Sept. 9, 1807. To tho Chairman and Members of the Common Council; Gentlemen. Your committee beg leave to report the following: Immediately on our appointment steps wero taken to ascertain the number and location of gambling shops within the city limits. This was no dinicult task, as Chicago In Its palmiest days did not keep open houso with such effrontery as tho Scranton gamblers. After compiling a census of tho establishments, notices wero sent to each. In tho namo of tho committee, and with one exception all obeyed tho mandate to close. Tho ex ception Is a man named Seamans, who Is doing business on Lackawanna avenue. Ho is located on tho second floor of the building known as 220 Lackawanna ave nue, and Is open day and night. His ln solenco is nnnoylng and wo can como only to tho conclusion that his rooms aro being visited by thoso In authority. Tho committee docs not desire to constltuto Itself a public prosecutor, and for that reason makes this report. If, however, council desires tho committee to do work which should properly como under an other head your committee stands ready to assume tho responsibility. AFTER A NEWSPAPER. Thero Is another matter which wo de sire to call tho attention of councils and tho respectlvo heads of departments, of which It would como under Its jurisdic tion, that is a particular Sunday paper that is given away gratis. In our opin ion and thoso wo have consulted with, wo believe It to bo a most corrupt sheet. No man is safe, no matter what his standing in public ltfo may be. They havo attacked our Honorable Mayor and our most worthy chief of tho police de partment. Such vile slandering of honest officials would not bo tolerated In any city but our own. Your commltteo docs not fear any of its criticisms but will do their work honestly and fearlessly as they find It. However, wo think It about tlmo that such unprincipled and blackmailing prac tices of honest citizens should bo stopped by thoso who havo Jurisdiction over such matters. Most respectfully yours, M. J. Sweeney. Thomas Norton. R. J. Sheridan. Captain Moir, Mr. Keller and Mr. Oliver basted the committee right and left for going out and making itself a laughing stock of the community and bringing the council into disrepute. Mr. Sweeney and Mr. Gilroy argued for tho report and expressed great surprise that good Christian gentlemen should hesitate to help Sweeney et ai. to put the thumb-screws to vlciousness and Immorality. REPORT NOT ADOPTED. The vote on'the motion to adopt the report was as follows: Ayes Messrs. Reese, Regan, Gilroy, Sweeney, Noone, Sheridan, Farber, Nealls S. Nays Messrs. Thomas, Walker, Flan agan, Molr, Wenzel, Wlrth, Jackson, Oliver, Zeidler, Keller 10. Among the new measures Introduced was an ordinance Increasing perma nent firemen's pay to $60 after the flrst year; asking for plans for paving San derson avenue, between Marlon and Market streets; Capouse avenue, be tween Ash and Green Ridge streets, and Green Ridge street, between Ca pouse and Sanderson avenues. A resolution Introduced by Mr. Wen zel, forbidding the use of the swings and merry-go-rounds at Nay Aug park on Sunday, was passed by a vote of 12 to 5, Messrs. Walker, Regan, Gilroy, Norton and Nealls voting in tho nega tive. E. S. Williams was awarded tho con tract for remodeling the Center street station house. His bid of $1,975 was the only one to come within the appro priation, $2,000. Complaints were received from the board of health concerning various un sanitary' places about the city. A com munication was received from Samter Bros, asking that the electric light in front of the Commercial building be removed to some other corner, as they want to put In a circular curb at that point. Both these matters were re ferred. The resolution ordering the police committee to Investigate the Bellevuo riot was tabled on motion of Mr. Noone. INJURED WHILE AT PLAY. Alfred Roll Poll from the Roof of tho .11 nr vino ilrciilicr. Alfred Bell, a boy about 11 years of age, employed at the Marvlne breaker, had a narrow escape from death yes terday by falling from tho roof of the breaker, a distance of twenty-live feet. It Is customary for the boys employed at tho breaker to utilize their spare time at noon In running on the roof. Bell, with several companions, was en gaged in the above way yesterday when he slipped and was precipitated to the ground. Ho was picked up In an un conscious condition, but regained his senses after restoratives wero admin istered. He was taken to .his home on Throop street, where his injuries were found to consist of a badly lacerated face and several bruises about the body. FLYNN & SHERIDAN'S COMPANY. Hognn a Thrco Day's Eugngemcut nt Duvis' Yesterday. Intense as was the heat of yesterday, large audiences visited Davis' theatre, afternoon and evening, to see Flynn & Sheridan's Big Sensation Double Show. It is the best and brightest attraction that well-known theatrical firm has yet brought to this city. Thero aro really two distinct per formances, ono given by tho white members of the company nnd another by the colored folks. Both contain, many rare interesting features.

The young son of Mr. and Mrs. Jo seph Cook, of .Margaret avenue, had a narrow escape from death yesterday af ternoon. He was playing with match es and threw ono of them Into a pllo of paper which Instantly blazed up. The boy tried to put out the flro and his clothes bcame Ignited. His mother throw n cloak about htm and smothered the flames, but in doing so had her hands severely burned. An alarm of fire was turned In from box 84 for the flro young Cook started, but it was extinguished without the aid of the fire companies. NEW ROUTE PROPOSED. Sclicmc to Parallel (nc Ablngton Turn pike Comes Up Again In a Alorc Fcasablc Form. The project .to build a parallel road to tho Ablngton turnpike Is being resurrected. Yesterday William Chap pell, of Providence; B. F. Ackerly, Wil Hami Streeter, G. W. Finn, of Chin chilla and G. R. Clark, of tho central City, met with Mayor Bailey and Street Commlsloner Dunning in tho Mayor's ofllce to talk over tho pre llmary steps. Last year tho counsels votod $1,500 to Improve .the portion of the proposed now road that lies within the oity limits. Messrs Leach and Streeter who are foremost In the movement had offered to do the necessary work for .that amount, and were prepared to proceed with it, but at the last moment they discovered that the D. L. & W. company would not agree to a grade crossing over Its tracks and the scheme therefore had to be abandaned. Now It Is proposed to select a new route, crossing the tracks at Vinegar hill with an overhead bridge and con tinuing along the westerly side of tho railroad all tho way to Clarks Summit. This will entail more ex pense, but It will give an Infinitely bet ter road as It will do away with the hill that on tho originally proposed road would dip to the railroad level. According to the proposition which tho farmers will submit, the city will be required to build the bridge across tho tracks and take care of the por tion cf tho road between the bridge and Main avenue. They will take care of the road on the other side of the bridge all the way to Clarks Summit. A 75 foot bridge that will be required at the outlet of the Summit lake has already been provided for by the county. MEETINQ OF UNIVERSALIS. Held in tho Church at Brooklyn, Sus quphnntirt County.

Conrad, secretary of tho state mission work, delivered an ad dress upon the work of the society and urged a good attendance at the state meeting to bo hold next month in Honesdale. This gathering, Mr. Con ard said, depended greatly upon the members of tho Ablngton association for success. Rev. F. B. Dobbins, D. D., secretary of the American Missionary union, de livered an address, during which ho said: "It is an obligation for every Christian to do all In his power to give the gospel of Christ to the whole world. The obligations for missions remain the same at all times." The doctrinal sermon was then preached by Rev. M. J. Watklns, of Factoryvllle. ABOUT MISSION WORK. Tho home missionary committee made their loport, which was followed by addresses of the missionary pastors of the association. Rev. A. B. O'Neal spoke of the work which has been dono In tho Dudley Street Baptist church, Dunmore, during the four years of his pastorate. A short time ago a number of Italians began attending the church, which has placed the thought of mis sionary wor In his mind among the Italians.
