oT Good Standing in tho Town's
Soclnl Circle.
An elopement of a prominent young
married mun, Horace Ellis, and his
wife's Bister, Miss Mary uammel, at
Mooslo early Monday morning, has set
that little town by the ears. Added
cause for the gossip is given from the
fact .that the town did not contain
two better known young persons. Tho
elopment followed a discovery by Mrs.
Ellis which would have made It Im
possible for either of the principals to
reside any longer In that vicinity, and
Mrs. Ellis' friends say that the dis
appearance of her husband and sister
was the best conclusion of a bad piece
of business.
Ellis is 26 years old, He was a ship
ping clerk for the Pennsylvania Coal
company. Until a year ago he was
employed at the Hillside Coal and Iron
company's Mooslo colliery, of which
his father, now deceased, was once
the superintendent. After his father's
death Ellis succeeded him as trus
tee of the Moaslc Presbyterian church.
Mrs. Ellis' parents reside at. Moosic
and are well known. She and Ellis
were married elx years ago.
Mr. and Mrs. Ellis were prominently
Identified with nnd were regular in at
tendance at the church services. They
took an active interest in the social
affairs of the church and the town. It
was supposed .they had lived happily
together, but tho two families of the
husband and wife knew that a year
ago there was a quarrel, occasioned
by Mrs. Ellis' suspicions that her sis
ter, Mary, and her husband hau been
indiscreet in their attentions to one
another. There was a family council
and explanations at that time and the
matter was settled without publicity.
Mary, the sister, continued her visits
to the Ellis home with Mrs. Ellis' con
sent. She very frequently accompan
ied Mr. and Mrs. Ellis to church, and
often remained at the house for the
night. That programme was carried
out Sunday night Before morning
Mre. Ellis made her discovery and
Ellis and hla sister-in-law left the
house.
An effort was mad to ascertain by
what means Ellis and Miss Gammel
left the town. That could not be
learned, nor is their destination known.
They were seen in Avoca early Mon
day morning and are thought to have
departed on the Erie and Wyoming
Valley from West Avoca, or the Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western road
from Lackawanna. The two families
have concluded to leave the plans of
the elopers undisturbed.
BLANKET SELLER IN JAIL.
John Itynn, of Princeton, Who Tried
to Illukn n Hnrgnln wilh 11 Knife.
John Ryan was the name of the
tramp who tried to sell a blanket In
Michael Klerskl'a house on River
street Tuesday night and, falling in
this, drew a knife and .slashed at
Klerskl and a boarder. In police court
yesterday morning Ryan said he came
from Princeton, N. J., where he first
started on his career of drunkenness
and sloth.
The blanket, he said, wai given to
him by a small boy. A South Wash
ington avenue merchant -called later
in the mornlnsr and claimed the blan
ket. It was stolen from him, he stat
ed. Mayor Bailey held Ryan "in $300 ball
for court and in default he was sent
to the county Jail.
LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
Under this heading short letters of In
terest will be published when accompa
nied, for publication, by the writer's
name. The Tribune will not be held re
sponsible for opinions here expressed.
Card from Georgo 13. l)uvi.
To the Public;
I wish to offer my heartfelt thanks to
all who In any manner contributed to my
beneilt nt the Lyceum a poor enough re.
turn for their great kindness, but it is
all I have to give. I shall remember with
keen gratltudo Messrs. Reis & Burgun
der, R. J. Bauer, L. B. Powell & Co.,
Reese & Long, Fred C. Hand, F. W.
Martin, E. M. Strong, H. R. Long, J. U.
Reese, J. R. Cohen, Sol Goldsmith, O. 3
Jones. F 11. Robllng, William MeBrldo
and W. S. Millar, also tho artists who
gave tho excellent entertainment, and
whoso names were published In the ad
vance programme; also the tntire press
of tho city, who so unanimously and ef
fectively fostered tho movement, espe
cially Tho Tribune, the Republican,
Truth nnd rimes. Less than one dollar,
1 am told, was expended by the commit
tee for any purpose.
Tho outcome revealed many friends I
hud never krown; but the beneilt also
discovered a brood of calumniators of
such numbers that I urn forced, in justlco
to my friends, to notice them. I expect
to remain In Scranton, If I can iind oc
cupation, und I owe something to mjself
also. I have been charged, by unknown
parties, und behind my back, with rep
resenting that I was In straightened cir
cumstances at tho closo of my business,
when In fuct I was wealthy. It Is
charged also In this connection that I
drew a large sum of money trom my
bank on tho eve of my falluic, and that
I now have It concealed. Other unkind
things havo been said, but these nro tho
principal ones. They ato unriuulllledly
false, and I can conceive of no worthy
motive of their originator or originators.
To Hottlo theso Infamous detractors,
onco for all. I will muko this offer; i'ho
money received from tho beneilt Is still
In the hands of tho commute, and I will
not accept It before Saturday. It amounts
to nearly J400. If uny person will prove
either or both the abovo assertions, or
will prove that I ever, either before or
after my failure, mlsrenresented my
.financial condition in any manner, to the
satisfaction of the committee, I hereby
authorize nnd request the committee to
puss one-half of tho money over to the
board of associated charities, and tho
other over to the party furnishing such
proof,
Any man making such charges against
another In my position should be qulto
sure of his premises, with clear and
abundant prorf ; and If he should be phlt.
anthroplcally Inclined, here Is a chance
for him to benefit a worthy charity and
be paid for doing so. I will facilitate his
good work by now declaring that when
my employes were paid off at my closing,
I did not possees twenty-five dollars In
tho wprld, and nothing else beyond the
museum fixtures, Blnco sold tor rent,
and a few personal effects. After Sat
urday I will pay no more attention to
what may be said, and' the proof must
he offered nnd made by that day, as I am
1n need of the money. If this 'offer had
been made public before the beneilt, un-
doubtcdly It would havo resulted in many
dollars dlfterenco In tho receipts, but I
was unwilling that anyone should con
strue such an offer ns being advertising.
I nm not connected, directly or Indirectly,
with any enterprise anywhere, and need
employment of some kind. Will any one
offer It, after Saturday?

Will EstnbliKli n Stock Company at

Norman H. Brooks, who will open a
theater In the old Davis theater build

now in New York selecting a good

The date of the opening of tho Lin

THEATRICAL ATTRACTIONS.
My Friend from India.
A scream of laughter from beginning to
end Is ono of the ways In which "My
Friend from India" has been described and
It's not very far from being correct either.
The farce was produced at the Lyceum
last night before and audience that
laughed until it was tired over tho ab
surdities with which it teems.
Frederick Bond was again seen last
night In the role of Erastus Underholt,
a retired pork packer, in which he created
so much amusement when tho farce was
last seen here. Thero were many changes
In the remainder of the cast. John F.
Ward as A. Keen Shover, a thoosophlcal
timber who becomes Charles Underholt's
friend from India to tide over an emer
gency but is forced by circumstances to
assume the role permanently, realized the
possibilities of his role fully and made
tho most of them.
Joseph Adelman, Louis Bishop Hall,
Nlta Alecn, Helen Renner, May Vokca,
Meta Maynard and Clara. Hathaway
helped the fun making along.
Tho Girl Irom Pnri.
Edward E. Rice's production of "Tho
Girl from Paris' Is to bo tho attraction
nt tho Lyceum theater for Thursday next,
Feb. 10, and tho fair and fascinating lady
from the French metropolis will no doubt
prove as attractive here as she did for a
thousand nights in London and llireo
bundled nights In New Yolk city, where
the Herald Square theater was crowded
nightly by her admirers. She also aroused
the most pronounced enthusiasm In Phil
adelphia and delighted the playgoers of
tho Quaker city for flfty-slx nights and
will return there for an Indefinite run In
March. "It Is to laugh," Is u phrase that
tho German Inn-keeper repeats a number
of times to tell tho humorous Intent of
what happens In "Tho Girl from Paris,"
but It Is not necessary, for laughter per
vades the performance In the most pro
nounced character.
Miss Kennedy nod Compnny.
Miss Lillian Kennedy the star of all
soubrcttes, the mciry, rollicking, rompy,
effervescent kitten of the stage, full of
smiles, dimples and graces, dancing and
singing her way Into our affections.
Graceful and petite in figure, handsome
and piquant In feature, and winsomo In
voice and smile she flits like a ray of
sunshlno through the performance, and
leaves a never to be effaced impression
on the minds of her auditors. She will
be seen with her company In tho roaring
farce-comedy, "The Deacon's Daugh
ter," at the Academy of Music for the
remainder of this week beginning tonight,
matlness Friday and Saturday. Tho
Wllkes-Barro Times pavs n high tribute
to tho ability of the Kennedy company
and the merits of "The Deacon's Daugh
ter." nhen in Nnpoleon.
"Napoleon" is an historical play, and
It may be pronounced of unusual merit
and interest. It enlists tho attention of
tho audience nt the outset and holds it
with increasing firmness to the close. Jn
incident It liar many excellent points and
the dialogue Is sparkling throughout and
at times exceedingly vivacious and the
performance, as might bo inferred, is in
keeping with the merits of the play.
Rhea is admirably fitted for the tltlo
role and from tho moment of her en
trance she holds the nudlence spell bound.
It would not be posslblo fn tho limited
space nt command to mention ull her
points of excellence. Rhea will appear
at the Lyceum in this play Saturday
evening, Feb. 12.

LITTLE GIRL WAS
TERRIBLY BURNED
Annie Dolphin Thought She Would Help
Her Sick Mother.
SHE TRIED TO RAKE THE STOVE
A Llvo Coal Plow Out nnd Sot Firo to
tho I.lttlo One's Night Drois nnd in
nn Instant SI10 Vm Enveloped In
In riniiics-Olollior IVni Badly
Burned While Trying to Snvo Her
Daughter Irom InJury--Tnllor t!ot
tlngs Wns Also llurncd.
Anna Dolphin, bIx years of age,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Patrick
Dolphin, of 1213 PIttston avenue, was
fatally burned yesterday morning
about 7.45 o'clock at the residence of
her parents. Death came as a wel
come relief about 12 o'clock.
The accident occurred while the little
girl was trying to assist her mother.
Mrs. Dolphin had been ill for several
days and did not rise early yester
day morning. Little Anna crept out
of her bed and went down stairs in
her night dress to llx the fire. Anna
took a raker and as she had often
seen done attempted to rake the stove,
A hot coal fell out and Ignited the
woolen night clothes she wore.
In an Instant the Homes sprang up
and Jier screams brought the mother
to her. The distracted woman at
tempted to smother the ilames by clasp,
ing her child in her arms. James
Gettlngs, employed next door in A. J.
Mulderlg's tailoring establishment,
heard tho screems und ran in. He
seized a strip of carpet and wrapped
it about mother and child. The ilames
were subdued but they had left the
marks of dlstructlon.
Tho child's face was almost unrec
ognizable and tho little hands which
had been used to perform the labor
were denuded of flesh. The lower limbs
and the body were badly bruised.
Neighbors Immediately summoned
medical aid. Druggist D. W. Humph
reys reached the scene in a few mo
ments with cooling lotions, etc. Drs.
Walsh, Qulnn and Haggerty followed
In short order. There was little to be
done other than alleviate the suffer
ings and care for the prostrated moth
er. Anna, however, did not become un
conscious, but seemed fully aware of
tho aifair. She begged plteously for
water. Her demise was no doubt due
to inhalation of the flames and the
terrible shock. She would have been
horribly disfigured.
Tho mother's arms, hands and bos
om are burned in some spots severely,
but not seriously. The shock has com
pletely prostrated her and fears for
her condition are entertained. Get
tlngs, the tailor, also had his hands
slightly burned.
A sad accident in connection with
the affair Is that the father who Is a
conductor In the employ of the Trac
tion company was on the South Scran
ton run and came along cityward just
a few minutes after the catastrophe.
He wns told of the happening but had
to take his car In and return. He
probably will never make such a try
ing run again.

STORIES or CROWNED HEADS.
Storlci ol tho Queen of Portugal, Ex.
Queen of tho Uclglnni.
From tho London Post.
The Queen of Portugal recently.whllo
out walking with a Ladv of Honor in
the environs of Lisbon, heard cries for
assistance coming from a neighboring
wood. She went to nee what was tho
matter, and found that a wood-cuttor
had been injured by a branch of a fall
ing tree striking him on the head.
Queen Amelle, who had studied medi
cine, attended to the man's injuries,
and then, with her companion, assisted
him to reach his cabin. Later on the
Queen called to see how her patient
was. "Then you are a doctor, mndame,
since you know how to take care of
me 7" asked the wood-cutter, who did
not know his benefactress. "Yes, my
good man," was tho reply. "I am very
sorry for that," continued tho wood
sutter, "because I will never be able to
pay all I owe you. But you must glvo
mo your address, and as soon as I can
go out I will bring you a basket of
fresh eggs and butter by way of
thanks." The Queen replied evasively,
and the surprise of tho wood-cutter
may be imagined when ho subsequent
ly learned the rank of his lady physic
ian. Gratltudo of a somewhat similar na
ture inspired the cabman who last
winter had an accident near Monte
Carlo, nnd wns assisted by the Em
peror of Austria, who happened to be
passing on foot. The cabdrlver wns so
pleased that he sold; "I am going
back to Nice, and if you like, I'll give
you a lift. One good turn deserves
another."
The Queen of tho Belgians and Prin
cess Clementine during the summer re
side at Spa, and daily take long drives
in a pony-cart. One of their most re
cent adventures took place at a farm
house, where they called to buy a glass
of milk. Nobody but an old paralyzed
woman was in the house, and she re
plied that no milk was left in the jugs,
and that she wa3 unable to go to milk
a cow. "Never mind," said the Queen,
"If you will allow me I will go to the
pasture. Just tell me where the Jars
are." "But, my dear lady, you are
from the town, and you will never be
able to milk a cow," objected the old
woman. She was, however, mistaken,
for a little later her Majesty returned
with a half-filled Jug. Meantime, Prin
cess Clementine had laid on the table
three bowls, a loaf and the needful
knives and plates. The old farmer's
wife was served by the Princess, who,

Great musicians use Klmballs. Tho
testimony of musicians who command
a salary of from $1,000 to J 2,000 for each
performance must be accepted as hav
ing weight. They, at least, escape the
charge of not knowing what they are
talking about. Lillian Nordlca says:
"The more I use my Kimball piano tho
better I like It." Jean Do Reszke says:
"We have concluded to purchase Kim
ball pianos for our personal use." John
Philip Sousa claims: "The Kimball
piano Is first-class In every respect."
Some of the most beautiful cases in
walnut, mahogany and oak can be seen
here. I have some fine large pianos,
all colors, from $250 to $350, on easy
terms, and a term of lessons free.
