MUSICAL NOTES.
The need of comlo opera llbietton seems
to bo riowIiir dally. It Is said that
score writers maj be had for the aslc
InR. and thnt manauers llnd the Rreat
est dllllculty In Undine suitable books for
the opera. An Instance of the mod of
librettos was Riven In Scrnnton on Thurs
day ivenltiR, when a meritorious com
pany saiiR some really Rood music to
that unendurable heart-reiidlnR dramatic
chestnut "Shanitis O'Urlen." It Is clll-
llcult to understand how any manager
would llsk launehinR nn opein under
that wornout title or Imagine that the
public could be persuaded to c ndurc an
other done of "Shamus O'Hrlen" oven If

that the takntid nienibus of the quar

thnt thilr eftoits have bun appreciated
by the musical people of Scranton.
There Is said to be a close resemblance
between (Jrc'oi wltih, the Itusslan violin

STORIES OF THE TOWN.
lln Una Not Dent.
The best thing of tho week happened
at tho buttling of a house In Forest
point, AVcdnesdny night. Everybody
was excited. The people who live in
tho building wcro particularly agi
tated, which la pardonable, nnd In
direct contrast to these should bo tho
policeman. Ho should he to the popu
laco as water to tho fire.
A woman who lived in a part of the
double dwelling was conversing with
n leporter. She wns expressing her
fear that lire was burning under the
Moor in one of the upstairs rooms. She
told tho reporter how she had tried to
convey her feats to her husband.
"Hut," she said, "he can't hear he's
deaf."
At that moment a. policeman came
near. Ho henrd the woman say some
thing nbout her husband's auricular
defoimlty. "What!" he exclaimed,
nnd he spoko with nn necent; "what!
your husband 'deef,' you can't make
him hear where Is he, where Is he?
Come, bojs, come quick, there's a man
In the building!" He addressed this
to a group of ilremen.
They all rushed upstairs to the room
Indicated. It wns a "spare" loom; the
only thine In it was the skeleton of a
bed. '
"Where is the man!" yelled tho
policeman. "Lndy, lady, where is your
husband?"
Then the explanation wns made. Tho
excitement had apparently made the
man deaf, and the policeman disap
peared down a back stairs at a great
risk to his health.
Tales of Two llpccnr.
Two men, tho presence of each un
known to the other, were standing- In
the shadow of the trees around the
cathedral on Linden street one night
this week. Of a sudden one man made
a move. Immediately tho other dropped
upon two clutches he hnd held under
his arms and looked In the dlieitlon
of thu sound.
Theie, not five ynuls away, stood the
other man, also on two clutches.
They glaied at each other in silence
for a minute or to, and then one said:
"Here, ou, get on the other side of
the street; this is my side."
"I was here afoie you came."
"Why didn't jou say somethln,'
then?"
"I didn't see you; how could I say
somethln"."'
"Well, beggais Is no choosers, I
s'po.se, let's toss up for it."
"All right."
"If I wins, you go over to the other
side."
"All rluht."
The two mendicants placed their
crutches ngnlnst the fence and went
out to the middle of tho street, where
the electilc light shown. Then one
drew from his pocket a 50-cent plec e.
"Naw, not fifty," said tho other,
pooh-poohlnRly; "50 cents aint big
enough to see. Here, I've got a dollar,"
and he produced a silver elide.
They tossed this In the night air and
when it fell, the thrower shouted,
"Heads!" and the other beggar won.
So, tucking his clutches under his
arms, the loser ctossed to the other side
to await a soft mark.
Ptetty soon along came n woman,
a confident, fearless, dignified wo
man. At the right moment the
beggar got on his crutches and
hobbled In front of his prey. He
spoke the set speech of the begRar,
hard luck, and all that, and his man
ner to the woman was at once penitent
and lommandlnR. Hut she was a fear
less woman and she evidently took
compassion upon her bending peti
tioner. "Here, mv good man," she said in
tones of milk and honey; "here Is my
card, I have no money with me, But
If vou will call at the addiess on the
caul you shall be piovlded for." Then
she passed on.
The beRRar dropped his crutches and
in glee went into the light. And he
nad the card: 'Mrs. AV. U. Duggan.
agent for the Hoard of Associated
chnilties."
He hasn't called.
Ho C housed His llcil.
One Frcdeilck Mink was a candidate
for the olllce of constable of the Ninth
w.ud. Even body thought Mr. Mink
hailed from somewheie in South Scian
ton and almost everybody was sur
pilsed to see his name as a candidate.
"Why, wheie do ou live?" was
asked of Mr. Mink.
"In the Ninth ward, sir," said he.
Investigation moves that Mr. Mink
did llvo in South Scianton. Hut last
Katuiday ho decided to east his for
tunes and incidentally his voto in the
Ninth ward, so he moved his cot to an
unused room In the rear of Aldetman
AViight's olllce, in the Price building,
nnd at once sent out the news that lie
was In the light to stay. Seven bun
dled and nine votes were polled at the
caucus. Mink got 47.
Would Not Co Homo.
Thomas Jones entoted the police sta
tlon at an eaily hour yesterday morn
ing and looked beamingly at Patrol
man Thomas Lowry, who was acting
as desk sergeant. "Hello," said Jones;
"kin I sleep here?" He was advised to
go home.
"Me, home!" exclaimed Jones Indig
nantly; "I'd like to see the man who
can tend me home." He said further
things of the same tantalizing nature
and Patiolman Lowry locked Mr. Jones
In a cell. He slept well during the
'night und paid $2 room rent to Mayor
Halley In the morning
