"Where aro you going my pretty maldV"
"I'm going a-votlng, sir," she said.
"But you can't vote, don't you know?"
said he.
"Ah, can't I though?" with a laush cried
she
"Just you watch mo now and see!"
And the way she did it was Just this way
She never stopped near tho polls that
day.
But a-shopping instead to her heart's
content
In Its magical mazo sho merrily went.
And the way she voted wus Just this way:
"I want you to vote the way I say"
That's what she said on election day,
And the nlco young men who were glad
to obey
Just voted to plcaso tho fair llttlo maid
And that's how tho ballot sho cleverly
swayed.
Tho Homo for tho Friendless concert
will bo a great success. Tickets are being
sought and It now seems that a full
houso is assured. Tho diagram will open
tomorrow morning nnd those who have
bought tickets ns well ns those who
haven't will bo obliged to go to tho box
ofllce as soon as It opens In order to se
cure choice seats. Tho programme ns
heretofore given is ono of tho best ever
presented to a Scranton audience. The
object alono should crowd tho theater,
but when la added such nn attraction
In the way of llrst-clnss talent no ono
run nffnrrt in tnlaa tuta r..nn. .,ni
event of tho year. Many theater parlies
are being formed and the auditorium will
present a brilliant appearance on that
occasion.

Leon Olchcfskl, against whom a ver

on Sunday, has "Jumped" his hail and
disappeared hi tho direction of Can
ada. The district attorney's office has re
ceived information, believed to bo re

Olchefskl'3 bondsman, Ignatz Pretz,
Is liable for the $1,500 security he fur

block on Stone avenue and three houses
on Remington avenue. Pretz has given
considerable aid to the authorities In
tracing OlchefskPs movements since he

TEARING DOWN THE WALLS.
Workmen Attack tho Ruins ot the Y.
M. C. A. Ilitllding.
Contractor Conrad Schroedcr put a
force of men at work yesterday tearing
dov. n tho walla that remained after the
Young Men's Christian association
building was destroyed by fire. By
nightfall portions of walls that were in
any danger of falling had been taken
down. The big chimney was allowed
.to btnnd. It was examined by Bulld
lnjr inspector Nelson who found It in
almost perfect condition. The lire had
affected It very slightly.
Today the street commissioner can
hegin to clear up tho court In the rear
of the ruins and open It for travel. A
temporary sidewalk will at once be laid
on tho AVyomlng avenue front and a
five-foot fence erected to prevent per
sons from falling Into the cellar. It Is
the Intention to take down the wall
alongside tho Powell building to tho
first story to prevent the possibility ot
injury to the Powell building In case
the wall should topple Into tho cellar.
Building Inspector Nelson hna decid
ed that th'e Gorman stable on tho Stew
art property, facing Spruce street, was
more than half destroyed by lire and
It will have to bo torn down as the
building law provides .that a frame
building within the fire limits which
is more than half destroyed by fire can
not bo rebuilt. Just what kind of a
building will be erected on the site
cannot be stated nt this time. The
work of tearing down .the remnant of
th'e stable will probably begin today.

THE COLLINS-HALE TROUBLE.
Defendants Mnkc Answer to Vnn
Dylic-Collliis-Vnn Dyke.
The defendants In tho Colllns-Hale
Manufacturing company litigation, C.
E. Spoerl, John Koshenbach and E. C.
Hale, yesterday made answer to tho
complaint of the plalntlffp, AV. AV. Van
Dyke, A. S. Collins and AV. F. Vnn
Dyke.
They claim thnt Messrs. Koshenbach
and Snoerl were duly elected to suc
ceed AY'. AV. and AV. F. Van Dyke ns
president and secretary-treasurer re
spectively, nnd that It Is not true, as
nllegeu, that at the directors' meeting
on Jan. 7 tho Aran Dykes were agreed
upon for these olllces but afterwards
expelled and Koshenbach nnd Spoerl
chosen In their stead. The A'an Dykes
held these offices last year and re
ceived $1)00 and $2,000 respectively for
their services. The new directorate
thought this an unnecessary expend
iture and when Messrs. Koshenbach
and Spoerl ugreed to do the work for
nothing Hiey were given the olllces.
They further say It Is not true that
the new directorate Intended Increas
ing the commissions for 1897 of Messrs.
Hale and Collins, the salesmen.
Accompanying the answer was a
formal petition for a modification of
the Injunction so as to permit the
treasurer to pay the running expenses
of the manufactory. Court granted the
petition.
DEBATE DID NOT OCCUR.
O'Rollly Council Old Not Put in an
Appearance.
Tho debate on the question "Resolved,
That Home Rule for Ireland is De
sirous," which was to have taken place
In Green Ridge Inst night, between the
Phil Sheridan nnd John Boyle O'Reilly
Councils, Young Men's Institute, did
not eventuate, owing to the failure of
the O'Reilly council's champions to ap
pear. James Itoche, AVllllam Lewis and
Henry Hart, of the Sheridan council,
volunteered to pit themselves against
the debaters who had prepared to meet
the O'Reilly's orators, and as a con
sequence the large uudlence that had
gathered was treated to a very lively
debate. Dr. A'. H. McGreevy, J. J.
Varley and C. P. Powderly, who com
posed the regular team, had the affirm
ative. The "scrub" team had the
negative, or rather they tried to refute
tho arguments of the nlllrmatlve, for
as the chairman of the evening, Rev.
P. J. McManus, paid, there Is no nega
tive side to the question.
The Judges, J. J. McTaguo, John P.
Brown and John Phillips, gave the vic
tory to tho regulars. AVhlle the Judges

AVHAT CHAIRMAN SATS.
Chairman C. E. Chittenden of the
Republican city committee said last
night that he was confident of tho elec
tion of the six Republican school di
rectors today. The only danger to he
apprehend, ho said, lies In the pos
sibility that some Republicans may
refrain from voting because not fully
Impressed with the Importance of the
contest.
The prohibition candidates flooded
the city yesterday with letters making
a plea for an Independent school
board and as a basis for such an or
ganization asked that tho three pro
hibition candidates bo chosen the re
maining three to bo selected from
the best men among the Republican
and Democratic candidates.
The Republican city committee will
receive returns tonight in the central
