"I'll keep on pclllnff In spite of you,
Judge IMwnrdH and tho devil," Is what
John Heyden 1h paid to have said when
Sirs. Annie lioeglo warned him ngnlnst
continuing his speak-easy down nt
Itendham. When Mrs. lioegle, In the
role of prosecutor, repeated this defi
ance before Judge Kdwnrds and n Jury
In the main court room yesterday there
was. n. t'oneral hearty laugh. In which
tin second person of the defied trinity
genially Joined.
Mrs. Hoegle, It nppenrs, has a hus
band who wa In the habit of spending
all Ills earnings at Heyden's hole-in-the-wall.
She told Heyden to stop sell
ing to her husbnnd or she would re
port him to Judge Kdwnrds. He made
her the answer contained In the first
larngraph.
Heyden had no defense and could not
rotftradli't the witnesses who told of
having bought drink at his place Sun
day. Monday nnd every other day.
Judgi Kdwards commended him for
lofrainlng fiom going on the stnnd and
pn'Jot'lng himself, and out of consid
eration of this, imposed the minimum
senttni e $.,0i) line and thiee months
In the futility Jail for selling without a
license and $1 line and twenty days'
Imprisonment for selling on Sunday.
When he was being taken away to
the prisoner's dock, Heyden remarked
In halr-audlblc tones: "I had to do
something for a living. 1 can't work."
"What's that'.'" Judge Kdwards
nsked
T say I enn't work and have to do
something to make a living."
' It would be better for you to go to
the poor house thnn to be engaged in
an Illegal business nnd breaking up
homes," snld the Judge. "I thought
we grantod enough licenses down there
In Old i'ni-go to make holes-In-the-wall
unproiitalilc," rejoined his honor.
Co.-'Th ON THE COUNTY.
Jus, ph Durkott was going down Ox
ford sir.-t In company with his 8-year-old
boy, one evening In August
lust, wi-en a crowd of young loafers
coninii need stonlns him and followed
It un i.y giving him a thrashing, lie
had John Murphy and Thomas Moran
arrested for the offense, but when the
case came to trial before Judge Kd
wards. yesterday, he could not show
that the.e were the boys who did the
deed, and the jury said not guilty.
The costs were put upon the county.
John J. Murphy was attorney for the
defendants.
J Cohen did not appear to prosecute
the charge of assault and battery ho
had preferred against Aneurln Wil
liams and a verdict of not guilty was
tlii-refiiiv directed by court.
Tlu- euse in which W. S. Hodney was
c harged by Fuller Johnson with break
ing a fence was settled out of couit.
erdlct of not guilty was returned
in the three cases against Adam Yona-lonis--assault
and battery, carrying
'luealed weapons and attempt to kill
and the cases were placed on the
prosecutor, Michael Androlovlteh. The
evidence of the defense showed that
Androlovlteh followed Yonalonls and
his wife into their bedroom with the
evident Intention of thrashing the hus
band. The husband very properly
threw him headlong Into the street,
and the Jury said "well done."
CARIJIKD AWAY TIIE MEAT.
Harry Mlnnuch and Andrew Georgle
were charged before Judge Arehbald
with larceny nnd receiving by I',
Svvnrtz, an Old Forge storekeeper. The
statement of the prosecutor was to tho
effect that he had refused to give the
men credit nt his store, but they came
there notwithstanding and tried to get
"tMt" for sixty pounds of salt meat.
While he was parleying with them a
customer came In the .store nnd ho had
to go Into the cellar to get something
that the newcomer wnnted. While ho
was away the two men took the moat
and skipped. The defendants said they
were granted credit on tho meat anil
that this prosecution Is simply an ef
fort to make them pay an exorbitant
price for It.
They claim that he has had them
sued In a civil proceeding and also in
an nction of slander, each time en
deavoring to use the prosecution as a
lever to force them to pay the exor
bitant price which ho charged for the
meat. John T. Martin nppeared for
the prosecution nnd AY. It. Lewis nnd
F K. Uoyle for tho defense.
William Jones, of tho West Side, told
Judge Arehbald and a Jury in No. 3,
that while going through the Diamond
field one Sunday last summer lie was
set upon anil subjected to shameful
treatment by n crowd of boys who
had congregated there to play cards,
David Williams and Jerry Davis being
two of them. The boys claimed that
J-ncH annoyed them and that they
simply drove him away. The Jury said
not guilty, but don't do it ngaln, cr as
tha verdict was recorded "not Kiillty;
but pay the costs." M. W. Lowry rep
resented the commonwealth nnd W. R.
Lewis, the defense.
ADMITTED KICKING A HOY.
Uefore Judge Mel'herson in No. 2,
Domlnlck Ambioslo, of Austin Heights,
was arraigned to answer the chnrgo of

Kato Stearns, In unother case, charged

stable. Tho whole bother grew cut of
the serving of landlords' warrants.
Judge Mel'herson dismissed nil four

roots nnd exhibited u bald spot on her
head to provo her assertion. Mr.
Kline claimed that Mrs. Maloney as
saulted her with a chnlr. The Jury was
out at ndjeurnment. M. J. Wnlsh rep

Kobosnlck, but had to pay tho costs.
In the case cf Charles Getz against

ttfBBETT AND FITZ MAY MEET.
It 1 Thought Tunt tho Wife of the
Chniiiploii Will Clinngo Her .Hind.
Milwaukee, AVIs., Dec. !). It Is al
most a certainty that Itobert Kits'.
Simmons, the present champion pugil
ist of the world, and Jaim J. Cor
bett, ex-champion, will meet in the
roped arena, ugaln. This fact was
pained by an interview with Mrs. Fltz
simmons, who Is in this city. Before
the contest last March Fltzslmmons
promised his wife that he would nevvr
enter the ring again without her con
sent. AVhile Mrs. Fltzsimnions does
not come out openly nnd say there will
be another battle, it can be readily
seen that she Is not anxious to put a
block In the way of her husband as
regards his plans for the future.
"I do not care to stnnd in my hus
band's way," Mrs. FitzImmon.s said,
"and If he thinks It better to give
Corbett another chance I may change
my mind, but until I do there Is no
prospect whatever of the two men
meeting, nnd nil this talk about
matches being arranged, etc.. Is with
out the slightest foundation."

ter .linn in Every Itcspcct Thnu tho
(Junker City l.nd.
Tommy Ryan, the Philadelphia boy,
who got a decision over young Griffo
and Jack McAullffe. was fought off his
feet by Jlmmle Judge, the Scranton
comer, In twenty rounds at Music hall,
last night. Eight hundred admirers of
the fistic art, representing tho two val
leys from Wilkes-Barre to Cnrhondnle.
saw the mill and declared themselves
highly satisfied with the whole affair,
and particularly the result.
There wus no room to question the
decision; In fact, tho bell was tho only
thing that saved Hyan from a sleep
In the last three or four rounds, and If
the last round had been about two
blows longer the demands of the Judge
shouters for a put-out would have been
complied with. AYhllo It wns Judge's
tight from tho outset, there wns never
a time In the first fifteen rounds but
what ho had to do his level best work
to keep the I'hlladelphlan in subjec
tion. Several of the middle rounds of
the fight were "honors even," or in
Kyan's favor, but in these rounds, as
a rule, there was not much heavy work
done. AYhen Judge got a round he got
it with a vengeance.
Ryan did but little of the leading,
being content to wait for a chance to
daze his opponent nnd then open up,
as Is the fashion of come-on lighters.
The opportunity ho waited for, how
ever, never came. Judge was too much
for him to begin with, and besides thl,
proved himself so exceptionally clever
I'n protecting himself after a miss, that
Ryan's plan of campaign went askew.
RYAN A GOOD FIGHTER.
Ryan Is a good flhter though' nnd
proved himself n. far llter mnti Minn
he v is given credit for by those who
saw him in the fiasco with McAullffe.
He is great on a rally, has wonderful
pluck and endurance and fights well
with both hands. His blows however,
lack the force, tli'nt nrr unoriorl in i.u..
tlt-for-tat with a stronix puncher like
Judge.
Tho contest was Incidentnlly for the
welterweight championship of the
state, but principally for the dollars
and dollars-and-a-half that Manager
Jack Skelly took In ut the head of the
stairs. There Is no kick coming on
that, though, it might lie added paren
thetically, for everybody got their
money's worth.
Tho men were to fight at 110 pounds,
but each of them wus a little over
that, not more than two pounds how
ever. Both were In good condition nnd
looked ready to do battle for their
lives. Judge had a little the better of
height nnd reach' and also was the
shiftier on hU feet.
Tho fight wns called at 10.45. Judg
had as his seconds. Bobby Dobbs. of
Minneapolis; Pat Hopkins, of this city
and J. A. Turnerwalt. of Philadelphia.
In Ryan's corner wera Kid Brown, of
Hartford, Conn.; Jack Tonkin, of As
toria, N. Y.; Tommy Robb and James
Reynolds, of Philadelphia. Ed. Cole
man was referee and tho timekeepers
were Percy Gibbons and Tom
O'Rnurke.
The men started In very cautiously,
Judge confident and Ryan a little on
tho wnrry. Judge did the aggressive
work, but did not nppear overly anx
ious to mix matters, and it was not
until the fifth round was reached that
any fighting wus done. Ryan took
good ndvantngo of every chanco nnd
beveral times punched Judge hard nnd
fast after the latter missed a lead.
In tho sixth round Judge commenced
to get the upper hand nnd from that
on he forced matters. Ryan persisted
In using his knee, and tho crowd
tumultously demanded of tho referee
that he caution htm about the foul
tactics. Rvan wns cnnllrmni i.... .
had no effect, tho knee would come
up viciously every time Judge came
In on hlni.
In the beginning of tho seventh
round Ryan made a rally that caused
tho onlookers to think thnt the scrap
was Just about to begin. Judgo recov-c-red.
however, and had far the best
of the latter part of tho round.
Roth men were weak in tho eighth
and ninth rounds but both fought well
with honors easy. Judge took things
easy In the tenth, and then went at
his man hammers nnd tongs fashion
In the eleventh, scoring a clean knock
down and starting Ryan on tho tobog
Ean. In the twelfth Judgo put Ryan
through the ropes and tho latter wbb
nbout to tumble from the stage when
Judge caught his hnnd and saved him
from falling. Judge smiled sheepish
ly siiien he thought of what he had
clone.
Ryan was badly worsted In the thir
teenth, but strange to say had the best
of the fourteenth by long odds.
From this on each round would wind
up with Ryan groggy, and in the last
three rounds, while Judgo wns dex
terously engaged In administering the
ether the bell would Interrupt and
Ryan would be rescued. He never quit
and in .the llrst part of the twentieth
round fought hard, fast and strong.
He wns generally done up, however,
and after about two minutes of light
ing would become a chopping block.
The last blow of the mill sent Rynn
staggering ngalnst a post and anoth
er would have settled him. The bell,
however, sounded Just then, and Ry
an was saved to hear tho cheers which
greeted them both.
Neither man showed outward signs
or punishment, a cut lip on Ryan and
a swollen nose on Judge being the
ci.ly badges of the meeting they will
wear today.
A preliminary bout of six rounds
between Mike McLaughlin, of this city,
and Paddy Gibbons, of 1'lttston, was
won by the former. It was a slug
ging match from the start to finish,
and, nlthough outweighed, McLaugh
lin did the best work all through.

DEPRESSION IN COTTON.
Proposed Cut in Wncs nt Fit! I Itivor
Itegnrdeil n n Hud Omen.
Boston, Dec. 9. Although Boston is
the centre of the cotton mill business
of New England, tho men prominently
connected with the trade would have
little to say concerning the action of
tho Fall River manufacturers In voting
to reduce wages beginning January 1.
Tho treasurer of ono of the Fall
River mills, who was willing to discuss
the matter, said he regarded this cut
as the beginning of a serious time, not
only for tho Fall River print mills, but
for all the cotton mills both there and
throughout the state. The kev to the
whole situation, he said, Is the rela
tive cheapness of southern labor.

From tho Buffalo Commercial.
The nudnclty and wit of the Amer
ican tramp are proverbial, and un
doubtedly they oftrii save him from
harsher treatment Uian his merits and
demerits entitle him to. A country
house near Buffalo recently received
a call from one of these species. Tho
man wns dirty, unkempt and unmis
takably n tramp. He also boro the
signs of addiction to strong drink and
general worthlessness. The humorous
touch .that finished tho picture, as he
came up with a genial smile nnd n
good deal of manner, was a round and
fresh clerical collar, which, had evi
dently been lifted very recently from
tho premises of the neighboring col
lege. "Madam," he said, "I nm a mission

15 cents this record of my mission

The fellow made his speech with n
look In his eyes that showed his en
joyment of the game. The volume
was a dirty castaway, rescued from
an ash barrel, but still "The Llfo ot

The Wanamaker Idea
i never to speculate in merchandise. When our buyers strike a particularly
rare bargain, we pass the benefit on to our customers. Not a penny is ever
added to price because goods are worth more than our cost. The Wauamaker
History Club illustrates this. By undertaking to sell One Hundred and
Fifty Thousand Dollars' worth of Ridpath's History of the World avc secured
an entire edition at unheard-of figures.
This history has never been sold for less than $48 to $175 per set, accord
ing to binding. Over 50,000 sets have been sold at these prices. Would
50,000 people pay more than worth ? A very slight reduction would have
sold out the entire edition in our two stores but our policy Cuts the Price
in Half. Nor is this all to make this entertaining and educational work
available to everyone that cares to kuoAV the characteristics and achievements
of the men and nations Avho have made the world what it is today, we have
organized
Tim WANAMAKER HISTORY CLUB.
Join it before our edition is exhausted; pay the membership fee,

the whole eight-volume set in any binding is delivered at once, you agreeing to
make 15 monthly payments first payment 30 days after joining for the

The edition, though large, is limited, and the club will close without notice
