Tramps ate infesting tho Hill to the
great annoyance nnil frequent alarm of
the housewives. Thoy seem to travel
lit pairs, and when one appears at the
back door another lings the bell at the
front. They want food, clothing: und
often demand money.
General Manager Sllllman, ot the
Street Hallway company, did a moat
graceful thing on Saturday, when lie
sent a special ear to the door of the
Home for the Friendless, which con
veyed to the Lyceum all the old ladles
apd children 'who were able (to go to
see "Uncle Tom's Cabin," returning'
them in tho same way. It was a very
disagreeable day, und otherwise the
family would have been deprived of
the treat afforded by the Lyceum man
agement. The managers are exceed
ingly grateful for this courtesy so gen
erously given.
The end of the "Art Course" In
which so many fair Scrantonlans are
Interested, is not yet. As ha9 been
noted In theso columns on previous
occasions, several who were caught
have expressed their Intentions to the
effect that they do not propose to fin
ish paying for the course which was
bo misrepresented. A number had al
ready advanced sums ranging from
one to six dollars, and had felt that It
was preferable to lose these amounts
rather than to add tho remainder of
tho twelve dollars alleged to be the
price of the book left in lieu of the
pictures and lectures. A prominent
social leader In the city has recently
received a most Impertinent letter
from the "American Art League,"
which by the way seems like the
ghost In the poem to "Have no dwell
ing moro on sea or shore," but only In
a postofllco box In New York; a fact
rather suspicious in Itself, aa it woula
be difficult for a delegation of angry
victims of a bunco scheme to descend
a-nd wreak dire vengeanceonamythlcal
individual or league whose only
known abode is a postofllce number.
The letter mentioned Is evidently writ
ten by a woman whose education In
English has been neglected, however
"up In art" she may be. "With much
underscored sentiment it contains the
Information that the complainant's
signature was supposed by the
"League" to bo revered by Its owner
as would be her honor, etc., and that
tho remainder of the $12 must bo
forwarded by return moll or "radical
measures would be taken to collect It."
It has been discovered that promoters
of this enterprise are now working Al
lentown. Bauer's band held a rehearsal yes
terday afternoon at the Lyceum and a
few of the organliatlen'8 admirers
qultoly filled tho loges to hear the
music which was brilliantly rendered

GOT A PLACE TO SLEEP.
Engineer DeWitt Und n Very Un
pleasant Experience.
The Job of night engineer at a work
ing electric plant Is awfully lonesome.
The engineer either gets deaf from tho
noise of tho whirling wheels and buz
zing dynamos or stands It at tho ex
pense of a change In the color of his
hair. ImaglnePhillpDewitt.the engineer
at the Scranton Electric Light com
pany's power house In tho unpopulated
region below tho gas house.Rlttlng In his
char at 3 o'clock yesterdny morning
when through' the door stoggeis a
hairy face, bad looking man. Engineer
Dewltt partly arose "Well, what do
you want?" he nskod of the intruder.
' Xawthln, only I'm coin to sleep
here."
"You are, eh! what makes you think
so."
"Oh, nawthln," said' the fellow, at
tempting to sit on a chair; "Only I
don't see what's going to stop me."
"You don't believe that anyone will
h'ave to help you. out,' suggested the
engineer mildly.
"Well, I'd like to see it tried." said
the other defiant'y.
Engineer IJewltt arose fioin his chair.
As he made the movo th hairy-faced
fellow made for him, landing a blow
with his llbt on tho engineer's face.
The engineer retaliated knocking the
fellow to the lloor. Then he dragged
h'im through the door and dropped him
at tho bottom of the cteps.
Engineer Dewltt, saying "Well done,"
to himself, resumed his chair. A min
ute or to passed and tho strancer
ogaln came through the doer. This
time he was crazed. He staggered to
wnnl tho engineer. He stumbled, fell
and his head just grazed one of the
huge revolving wheels. The engineer
wits upon him In au Instant. Drag
ging tho fellow to the middle ot the
floor Dewltt pressed the fingers of one
hand in his throat while with the oth
oi he opened the drawer of a desk and
took out a t-tioiur roue. With th'ls he
tied the follow'u hands and legs and
in turn tied tho two ends of the lope
to a ling In the bide of the building.
Then he went to th. telephone and
henl woul to police lu-vjquartci's. Pa
trolmen Hawks and Palmer responded
und succeeded in landing the man In
a cell. Yesterday he had not recovered
Mitllclently for u hearing and could not
gho his name or address.
A GIRL WAS "if THAT'S ALL.
Story of the Tnvlor Outrage from
Another Standpoint.
In relation to the article deFcrlblns
an alleged outrage at a wedding in
Taylor, whei e a crowd of drunken rev
ellers attempted to denude a young
girl, a statement has been rerelved
from Anthony Zubach, in whoso house
the aftair occurred. In which he sets
f ot tli under oath that the carryings
on which Constable Tiernej mistook
for an outrage were nothlnr moie or
leas than a common parlor game,
commonly Indulged in at Polish
weddings. This game Is some
thing like this: The ladles re
tire and one of their number wrapping
herself tightly In a big sheet returns
to where the gentlemen are congregat
ed. The one who first succeeds In dis
covering tho Identity of the masquer
ader U the hero of tho evening. The
gentlemen also take n turn at the mas
querading and the ladles then strive
with each othar for tho honor ac dis
covering who is In the winling sheet.
Instead of being in tho net of un
dressing a gitl, as Constable Tierney
supposed, tho gentlemen guestc of the
wedding wore simply trying to unwind
a sheet from the reison of a young
lady who was "it" at the time.
All of the above Mr. Zubach swore to
in the presence of Justice of tho Peace
William P. OrifHths, of Taylor.
VARIOUS COURT MATTERS.
It required only half an hour for a
Jury to ilnd a verdict for tho defendant
in tho caso of Parrar & Trefts against
William M. Sllkmnn. The case was sub
mitted at 11 o'clock Saturday morning
by Judge Gunster. after having been on
trial since Thursday afternoon. The
suit was to recover for somo machinery
sold to nn oil company In which Mr.
Sllkmnn had stock. One of the active
members of tho firm, A. Mandel, of
Wheeling, W. Va., was tho principal wit
ness for the plaintiff. The claim of the
defendant was that Mandel and the oth
ers who had roped Mr. '"'lkman Into tho
oil well scheme, wore now trying to
make him shoulder Its debts alone. Tho
Jury evidently took this view of tho mat
ter. Major Everett Warren and Hon. C.
P. O'Malley, of Wlllard. Warren &
Knapp, represented Mr, Sllkmnn, Car
penter & Fleltz were tho plaintiff's at
torney. Tho Superior court will begin its sec
ond wpek's session at 11 o'clock. Tho
Judges wore In consultation Friday af
ternoon and Saturday, and It la expected
they will hand down u number of opin
ions today. As thero uro only seven ap
peals remaining to be heard, It Is quite
likely that the business of tho session will
be concluded by tomorrow,
In the case of Ilrldgct McDonald
against Joseph and Mary MoNamara,
tho Jury returned a verdict for the plain
tiff. It was an Interpleader case to re
cover goods which were levied upon by
the defendants as the property of Mrs.
McDonald's husband.
The second week of common pleas
court, which begins this morning, will
have Judge Archbald, Judge Qunstcr and
Judge Love, of Center county, presiding,

LIQUOR AND LOAFERS
ARE DUNMORE EVILS
Burgess Powell's Administration to Be
gin w!tu Publication.
PERSUASIVE PLAN TO BE TRIED
Saloon iUon Hnvd Itecn Asked to
Keep Their Places Closod on Sun
day, and l'io Comer Lonior Ilni
lieon Ordered to llent a Iletront.
.Movement Is Not a Crusnilo.
Saloon Men llavo Promised to Help
nnd IJnrgos Powell Pools Satisfied.
Dunmore Is undergoing a period ot
moral nnd material purification in ac
cordance with tho wishes and efforts ot
Daniel Powell, the Republican who
was elected burgess of the borough a
year ago, but who wns not nble to as
rume tho ofllco until very recently.
The returns, it will be remembered,
showed Victor Uurschell, chief of tho
(Ire department and a Democrat, elect
ed, but after a long and expensive con
test In the courts Mr. Powell and oth
er Republicans were permitted to oc
cupy the offices to which they had been
fairly elected.
Dunmore has 'been "governed" after
a fashion by Democrats for many years
hut Republicans claim and many
Democrats admit that the "govern
ment" has been very nominal. Tho in
adequacy of th'e borpugh's officials or
their Indifference was In no respect
moro In evidence than In wide-open
saloons on Sunday and corner-loafing
at nlgh't time. While many tovn3 and
cities aro too-evldently afflicted with
thefce tyo evils they have been prob
ably moro general in Dunmore than in
any other large town In tho county.
When Uurstas Powell assumed office
on Jan. 4, he concluded his Inaugural
message with this paragraph:
A QUIET SUNDAY.
Let mo ttato that while I consider It
very Important that we should look well
after the material Interests of tno bo
rough. It Is also of vital importance that
uo do what wo can to promoto tho moral
tone of our community, and with that
end In vlow, therefore, I would suggest
that our police olllcers do their whola
duty In tho matter of closing the saloons
which aro being kept open upon tho Sab
bath contrary to tho laws of our land.
Tho street corners must also bo kept
fiee from the crowds who nightly con
gregate nnd by their language and uc
tions tend to mako affairs most unpleas
ant. A novel feature of Burgess Powell's
plan Is that he has been assured the
aid of the licensed saloonkeepers and
Is hopeful of being wuccessful In put
ting down tho two evils. Well-known
lesldents of Dunmore Informed a Tri
bune teporter last night that the bor
ough had been more orderly and quieter
during yesterday and the Sunday pre
ceding than on any Sabbath In sev
eral yeais.
Yesterday It was possible to refresh
the Inner man with Intoxicating liquids
If one had the price, but the number
of places open were few and their traf
fic was conducted with extreme cau
tion. There was some corner-loatlng,
too, but the ranks of the Idler were
perceptibly thinner than three weeks
ago, their tobacco spitting was less
voluminous and there wns a total ab
sence of loud, profane talk and Insult
ing remarks to women.
It Is not Burgess Powell's Idea to
make a crusade. He realizes that thero
is a sufficient respectable element of
all parties In the borough to give moral
support and weight to his course. He
has personally visited several saloon
men and secured promises fiom them
to keep their places closed on Sunday
nnd has directed Chief ot Police P. J.
Haley and the three other policemen to
make the request general.
In an Interview nt his home last night
with a Tribune reporter, Burgess
Powell said: "It Is too early to talk
In detail of the success of my efforts.
The result has been observed on only
two Sundays, but I am highly pleased
with the way things have gone thus
far and If I didn't say anything else
I would want to express my thanks to
the saloon men themselves for helping
me. 1'Voin reports made to me and
from personal knowledge I know they
are disposed to abide by my request.
AGAINST ALL OP THEM.
"It would be manifestly unfair to
Insist on one saloon being closed and
make no attempt to lose another and
that is Just what I do not propose to
do. My efforts will be directed ugainst
all of them. Yes, the 'holes-In-the-
wall,' bo called, are Impeding our work,
but as the saloon me,n are just as anx
ious as the authorities to abolish those
places I guess tho problem will work
out all right.
"One of Dunmoro's greatest eyesores
has been Its 'corners.' Here have con
gtegated on idle days and all evenings
scores of loafers whose profane talk,
insults to women and tobacco-spitting
have been a curse to tho community.
AU this I certainly shall have abol
ished if it is tho only official act of
my administration. A borough isn't
worth the name if it submits to that
kind of nuisance on a few street cor
ners and suffers the spectacle of hav
ing Its women unsafe without escorts."
Since Sunday, Jan. 9, tho Sunday
closing movement and other proposed
reforms have formed the chief borough
topic of conversation In the business
places. From Information gathered by
a Tribune reporter last night the bur
gess ha enough moral support back
of him to encourage him to success and
to make It unpleasant for any who may
openly oppose the plan.
POLICE DEPARTA1ENT WORRYING.
Maxtor-Key That Will Open Any
Station Houfo Ilni Disappeared.
Tho police department and particu
larly John Thomas Indulged In no lit
tle worry yesterday. Patrolman
Thomas lost his bunch of keys and tho
possibility of them falling into the
hands of a rouge or mlschlcvious per
son was to the minds of tho "coppers"
something terrible to contemplate.
One key will open any station house
in the city and another is a fire alarm
key. Unless th'e keys are found, it will
be necessary to cliango the locks on all
the station house doors.

HEATINQ AND VENTILATING CONTRACT
It Hns Been Awarded to tho Hunt A:
Council Company.
The Colliery Engineer company has
awarded the contiact for heating and
ventilating their now office building to
the Hunt & Connell company.
The system as planned Is very com
plete. It is what Is known as the
"Plenum" and Is designed In every de
tail to bI'ow tho highest art of the
trede. There will be a large steel plate,
trree-quarter housing fan for driving
the air through underground brick
ducts to the base of the vertical flues
leading to the soveial Moors. This
manner cf conveying the air through
undergtound ducts 19 ci.isluetecl by ex
pert cnsinceis far iupcrior to tho old
method of overhead duets, as It leaves
unobstructed head-room in basement
and icduoes the friction and loss of
heat to a minimum.
The fan will be driven by an eleetrio
motor mid will be adjusted to such
speed as to deliver and change both
hot or te npored n!r to the several rooms
three to four times per hour. The sys
tem Is practically tho same as that In
the High school building and also In
Nos. 15 and 28 school buildings.

C. II. Zolnulcr, tho Company's Now
Prcildont--Proportr Is Valued nt
8175,000 Exclusive of Mnchlncry.
The Dickson Manufacturing com
pany has offered for salo lta valuable
site and shops In Wllkes-Borre. The
value of the land and buildings Is about
$17C,000.
One of the first lines of policy adopt
ed by C. II. Zchnder after ho was made
president was to concentrate the com
pany's departments nnd shops which
In this city and Wllkcs-Barre were
thought to be scattered over too great
a territory. The plan to dlsposo of the
Wllkcs-Barre establishment Is a con
tinuation of this policy. It yvas urged
to tho board ot directors by President
Zehnder beforo ho left for Europe two
weeks ngo and wns approved by the
board and referred to Its real estate
committee. The privilege of salo wns
given to W. J. Raeder, the Wllkes
Barre real estate man.
The WIlkes-Barre property Is on
Washington, Fell and Canal streets
north of the Lehigh Valley depot and
nearly In the heart of tho business sec
tion of thei city. It comprises about
thirty lots, the plot containing a ma
chine shop, foundry, blacksmith shop,
pattern shop, storehouse, stable and
dwelling. It is not known what total
value the company has placed on the
property, exclusive of machinery, but
It Is thought to bo not far from $175,
000. TO SELL THE PROPERTY.
The real estate agent has been In
structed to sell nny part ot the land,
whether It contains buildings or not,
at figures furnished by the company's
real estate committee, or to sell the
whole property to one purchaser, the
salo to bo made by the company If the
machinery Is purchased.
Aside from President Zehnder's plan
of concentration, the sale has been
suggested because of the fact that the
shops contain machinery and equip
ment of too gioat value and complete
ness to be used for manufacturing the
ordinary kind of product which hns
been made therein. The plant was
originally designed to meet the wants
ot the Wyoming and Lehigh mine
trade, but has developed to nearly as
good a comparative equipment as the
Scranton shops. The latter are much
larger, however, and contain more of
tho newer Ideas In the machine-manufacturing
trade and It Is believed that
tho exclusive use of the big Scranton
plant will result in a greater propor
tionate profit.
OFFERS REJECTED.
Offers to purchase parts of the
Wilkes-Bane property have been made
several times during the past year.
One of considerable importance wns
made a month ago, but the offers did
not meet the company's figures. It
was only during last week that the
matter yvus placed In the hands of the
agent.
About 150 men have been employed
recently in the Wilkes-Bat re shops.
