ENGINEER'S MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.
Ilcmnincd nt His Post After nn en
gine licit tho Truck
To plungo twenty-flvo feet down an
embankment on a locomotlvo and live
to tell tho tale Is an experience prob
ably vouchsafed to no man until yes
terday, when John Bryantt a Delaware,
Lackawanna and "Western engineer,
went through all thl3 and emerged
without 01 scratch.
He has chargo of engine No. 81 nnd
yesterday was engaged In shitting
cars between tho Meadow Brook and
National collieries of Connoll & Co. On
this branch road, in tho vicinity of tho
axle works, there is a llfty-foot em
bankment that descends at a declivity
of about forty-five degrees. While go
ing at a lively speed about 10.15 o'clock
yesterday morning tho engine ran
through an open switch nnd ploughing
through the short space intervening
between the trncks and the edge of tho
embankment, plunged fairly headlong
down tho steep decline. Halt way
down It careened over and anchored
In the ashes of which the embankment
In principally composed, the stack be
ing down and the wheels up.
When the engine come to a stop, ho
felt himself over nnd finding that he
was not only alive, but unhurt, crawled
out through tho cab window nnd clam
bered up tho bank, where he sat for
half an hour before he fully recovered
his breath.
The fireman, Charles Dlppre, who
jumped from the tender In time to es
cape the exciting ride, thoughtfully
hastened to the overturned engine and
pulled the fires, preventing a possible
explosion. Tho engine, It Is thought,
Is not damaged to any great extent.
It will require several days for tho
wrecking crew to get It back on the
track.
DOES NOT EXPIRE UNTIL JUNE.
Onmowoll Contract Htn Yet Ilight
Months to K1111.
October 13 has heretofore been sup
posed to be tho day on which
tho contract between tho Game
well FIro Alarm company and
tho city expired but an examination
of all the papers shows that the con
tract does not expire until June 1,
180S. Tho ordinance providing for tho
erection of tho fire alarm system was
signed Oct 13, but did not go into
effect until June 1 of tho following
year.
This extension of time will give tho
next estimate committee time to
provide money for the purchase of tho
present system or the erection of a
new one.

CONVENTION OF
BOARDS OF HEALTH
Afternoon and Evening Sessions Held in
City Hall.
MANY INTERESTING PAPERS
Itcnd by Dr. John C. Price. County
Superintendent of Schools J. C.
Tnylor, Dr. D. A. Cnpivcll, Ciilvln
It. Parsons, Dr. J. L. Ken nnd Dr.
IS. Edgar Dcntio-Othcr Matters Mint
Eugnpcil tho Attention of County
Snuitnrlnns.
The semi-annual convention ot tho
Associated Boards ot Health of Lack
awanna county was held yesterday In
tho City Hall. At 3 o'clock tho af
ternoon session was called to order by
Dr. F. J. Van Sickle, of Olyphant, pres
ident of tho aspoclated boards. In his
address he reviewed tho work ot the
year, nnd referred to the recent opinion
of the deputy attorney general of tho
state, which places boards of health en
tirely nt tho mercy of city councils.
Ho said that It Is apparent that the
city councils have enough to do with
out saddling upon themselves duties
that now devolve upon the boards of
health' nnd In which members of coun
cils usually tnke little concern. He re
ferred to tho teaching of hygeno and
physiology In tho public schools, and
said It was important that there should
bo a reform In teaching these studies.
Tho text books now in use, ho said,
are, as a rule, loosely written, inac
curate and misleading. He though that
hygene and sanitary science should bo
taught but that better textbooks ought
to be used. Ho was not sure that a
series of lectures by physicians would
not be better than tho plan now pur
Hued. He closed by commending the
course of the water companies of Lack
awanna county In providing a pure nnd
adequate supply ot watrn-, and it tak
ing steps to preserve tho forests around
the sources from which the companies
get their supplies of water.
PAPER ON CONSUMPTION.
President Van Sickle announced that
they would somewhat transpose tho
printed order of business for the meet
ing by nllowlng the reports of com
mittees to go over until a later hour.
He asked Dr. John C. Price, of this
city, to read his paper on "Consump
tion." Dr. Price spoke of consumption
as nn infectious disease, and remarked
that it is a product of civilized life.
The Amerlcnn Indians never suffered
from consumption until the white came
heie and began to impose upon the
Indians the restrictions ot civilized so
ciety. Now it Is the most prevalent
cause of death among the Indians. The
doctor dwelt at length on tho manner
in which people fall victims to con
sumption. Children contract the dis
ease by drinking milk taken from cows
suffering from tuberculosis. The germs
sent forth from dried saliva expector
ated by consumptives was also men
tioned as one of tho most prevalent
causes of tho spread of consumption.
Dr. Price gave it as his opinion that
If proper restrictions were imposed on
consumptives and all animals suffer
ing from it wcro killed that consump
tion would be a disease of thk past In
a few generations. Dr. Price, at the
close of his paper, produced a micro
scope and gave those present an op
portunity of studying consumption
germs taken from tho saliva of con
sumptives. The paper was discussed
by Dr. J. C. Bateson.
"Ventilation of School Buildings,"
was the title of a paper read by Prof.
J. C. Taylor, county superintendent of
public schools. He said the best au
thorities give it as their opinion that
a room should be so ventilated that
each person will have 2,000 cubic feet
of pure air an hour. Ho said the im
portance of good ventilation is not re
alized by the average person. Because
bad air does not kill quickly and Is not
followed by any immediately noticeable
111 results the evils that follow the
breathing of bad air for hours at a
time are not fully realized. In this
county during the last ten years some
gratifying progress has been made In
ventilating school buildings, but much
yet remains to be dono. Window ven
tilation Is not safe and It is doubtful
If it is any bettor than no ventilation
at all. It should bo the duty of sani
tarians to see that every public build
ing erected Is properly supplied with
ventilating apparatus. Discussion fol
lowed by Secretary D. W. Brown and
Calvin H. Parsons. Questions wore
asked of the essayist by Dr. Hellman,
of West Pittston.
DISPOSAL OF SEWERAGE.
Calvin H. Parsons, sanitary engineer
ot this city, read a paper on "The Dis
posal of Sewerage in Villages." Ho
held that the general system employed
of turning tho sewerage Into streams
not only robs and Impoverishes tho
land, but makes tho stream Into which
the sewerage is turned very offensive,
besides setting free great quantities of
offensive gases. Ho hold that tho dry
earth system Is the best now known
to sanitarians.
Attorney Van Wormcr, of Montrose,
who with members of tho board of
health of that town were present for
the particular purpose of hearing Mr.
Parson's paper, said that Montrose Is
now confronted by a serious problem
with reference to tho disposal of the
sewerage of that town, as It Is impos
sible for them to turn it Into any of
tho adjacent streams. Mr. Parsons
said ho thought tho only method open
to tho people of Montrose Is irrigation.
Dr. D. A. Capwell, of this city, read
a paper on "Sanitation from a Physic
ian's Standpoint." After citing many
cases that camo under his notice as
physician, he said it Is nothing less
than a crime for the municipal author
ities of this city to allow tho cesspool
to exist wherever sewerage can bo
turned into tho city sewers.

EVENING SESSION.
Tho evening attendance was aug
mented to an appreciable extent by the
presence of tho county medical society,
which attended tho convention In lieu
of tho societies regular meeting, which
wns scheduled for last night.
Tho first business was tho receipt of
reports from the allied boards ot health.
C. M. Hathway, of tho Blakely board,
paid his borough was in good sanitary
condition, and that the pcoplo support
and encourage tho board. Georgo Coop
er, of Prlceburg, had nothing to com
plain of excepting the throwing ot slop
wntcr on tho streets. John O'Hara, of
Throop, reported having had an epl
denilc of scarlet fever anil measles,
which the board handled very success
fully. No member of tho Scranton board
was present at either session.
Dr. J. L. Rea read the first paper
of tho evening. His subject was "Anti
toxin." Ho gave a very Interesting
treatise of the question, saying among
other things that had antitoxin been
employed generally In tho United
States, during the past five years, tho
lives of 150,000 diphtheria patients
would havo been saved. In his own ex
perience ho used the antitoxin in 109
oases nnd It was effective In every
instance but one, and In that cape tho
patient had been treated for five days
by a doctor who was not favorable to
antitoxin. Dr. Rea virtually said that
If antitoxin Is used within n, reason
able time after diphtheria is contract
ed it Is simply nn Impossibility for tho
child to die of diphtheria. He pooh
poohnd tho idea that antitoxin has a
deleterious nftcr-effect.
Dr. Dean, In commenting on tho pa
per, said that boards of health should
mak provision to supply nntltoxln to
those to whom it is beyond reach be
cause ot its expenslveness, on the same
principle that a community makes
small pox a matter of general public
interest.
Dr. G. Edgar Dean rsfid an able prac
tical paper on "Good and Bad Lights,"
treating on the relative merits of the
different forms ot Interior Illumination.
In speaking of shades, he said red
llght3 were very trying to the eyes,
tnd that light green, nature's own
shade, was the easiest on tho eyes.
"When Should Drinking Water bJ
Boiled and AVhy?" was tho subject very
interestingly treated by Dr. F. D.
Brewster. Ho answered these ques
tions by saying that vvheiwer it is
suspected that water contains patho
genic germs, that Is nnlmal or vege
table poisons. It should be boiled, as
heat destroys those germs and makes
tho water wholesome. When an epi
demic Is raging It Is absolutely neces
sary that water should tie boiled. The
discussion which followed tho reading
of this paper developed tho fact that
malaria Is quite prevalent in this city
this year, something never known be
fore. Dr. W. E. Allen, who was to havo
spoken on "Fumigation," and Dr. H. V.
Logan, whose subject was "Bicycling,"
fallrd to put In an appearance. Nono
ot the chairmen of committees were
present in the evening, and the reports
consequently had to go over until the
next reml-annual convention In April.
SHE USED A WHIP.
Mrs, John Evans, a Jealous Wife, Holds
Up Lena Faust and Slashes Her
with a Whip.
Miss Lena F&ust. a young woman,
living with her parents on Chestnut
street, West Scranton, was horse
whipped last evening by Mrs. John
Evans, of C22 West Lackawanna ave
nue. The affair created great excite
ment In the neighborhood.
At about C.4G o'clock, as the Faust
girl, accompanied by her sister, Emma,
were passing a storo on West Lacka
wanna avenue, where John Evans con
ducts a grocery business, Mrs. Evans
rushed out and struck Lena, the eld
est, several times with a horsewhip,
saying: "I will not have you flirt
with my husband." Miss Faust denied
the accusation.
Mrs. Evans stopped wielding tho whip
and talked excitedly to the girl. She
threatened to tell her father. Miss
Faust said that she, also, would tell
her father. Miss Faust suggested that
Mr. Evans be brought out of the storo
to confirm her (Miss Faust's) defense.
This was not done.
A crowd quickly gathered, but the
parties to the affair disappeared. No
arrests were made.
HAYDN EVANS' RECITAL.
An Organ Entertainment that Wns ot
Unusual Merit.
An organ recital of unusual merit
was given In the Penn Avenuo Baptist
church last evening by the church or
ganist nnd music director, Haydn
Evans. He was assisted by the church
quartette, Mrs. L. II. Brundage, Miss
Margaret Jones,' Philip Thomas and
Joshua Johns.
The selections wero all of French
composition. Mr. Evans played tho
following: Sonata No. 1, op. 42 (Gull

Early next month Mr. Evans will

Away from IIomoCrlffin to Uo
Manager.
There will be an Eastern league baso
ball club In Scranton next season. That
was decided yesterday when the pres
ent owners gave an option to a local
stock company for the purchase of the
franchise. Tho option Is to expire Dec.
1 and tho purchase price is to be $2,
500. Tho junkettlnc of tho league presi
dent, P. T. Powers, to Worcester and
New Haven and other New England
cities nnd through Now Jersey was
authorized by tho Scranton owners.
They named a price supposed to be $3,-
500, for the franchise. President Pow
ers failed to secure a bidder at that
figure and the deal was called off.
The purpose'of tho owners to sell to
a home company at a price $1,000 lower
than away from homo was suggested
by local pride.
It Is probably a question of only a
few weeks before the sale Is mado to
the stock company, whose active head
Is City Assessor Charles Fowler. He
has secured pledges for 73 of 100 pro
posed shares ot stock at $30 each, which
will give $5,000 to purchase the fran
chise and meet tho early expenses of
the season. The subscribers, without
exception, represent tho well-to-do and
prominent patrons of baso ball in
Scranton.
THE DIRECTORS.
Messrs. T. R. Brooks and II. P. Simp
son, of the present owners, have agreed
to take stock In the new company. An
effort will bo made to induce Mr.
Brooks and two others to assume the
directorate. The directors are to have
full swing In tho management of the
club.
The club will play Sunday games
away from home. "Sandy" Grlfiln will
bo retained as manager.
It has been stipulated by tho present
owners that they are to profit by any
draft that may be mado for Bonner or
Walters, but not by tho sale of those
or any other players. Philadelphia has
already offered $230 for Bonner's re
lease, but the offer was declined.
It is thought that with a new third
baseman, shortstop, two pitchers and
possibly a left fielder the club will be in
good shape to begin next season.
