Het-llnck-. Amendment .Undo to tho
Plumbing Impcctor Measure, In
tending llio Period of Service.
' lloutalnrtha l'Jlli Ulitrlct Scivor.
In select council Inst night the or
dinance for paving North Main nve
nue and natt of Providence road, In
volving nn expenditure of nearly J100,
000, was Introduced- the ordlnnnce ad
justing th" iay of peimanent firemen
was passed finally; the ordinance giv
ing gratis a valuable franchise to tho
ltnin Sprinkling and Street Cleaning
company got n serious set-b.'lck; a
number of Important concurrent meas
ures weie considered, and a big batch
of ordinances passed third reading.
Mr Manley. who has often been
agreed upon for chairman pro torn,
was selected for that position last
night In the absence of President San
derson. As Mr. Manley has a penchant
for guiding the deliberations of coun
cils In a way calculated to expedite
matters, the business last night occu
pied but a comparatively brief space
of time
Tho North 12nd paving ordinance was
Introduced by Mr. Finn and along with
It a petition from nearly every prop
erty owner along the proposed toute
which Is on Piovldenceroad north from
Comt street and on North Main ave
nue, from Piovldenee road to tho city
line. The petition and ordinance pro
vides for a brick pave excepting for
Oft) feet for which asphalt Is stipulated,
KST1 MATED COST.
The cltv engineer's estimate of .the
cost was' about JS2.000 but $100,000 Is
apptopi Intert by tho ordinance "or as
much thereof as may be necessary,"
the city being Indemnified by assess
ments to be made against the proper
lies according to the foot-front lule.
The oidinnnte was leferred to com
mittee. Over a dozen permanent firemen were
In the gallery anticipating action on
the common council ordinance adjust
ing the pay of tegular paid firemen.
The measure provides that after April
1 regular paid firemen shall be paid at
the rate of $G0O per : ear for the fltst
year's service and $720 per year there
after. The measure passed third and
final reading and now awaits only the
mayor's signature to become operative.
At leapt a temporary black eye was
given the Dunn Sprinkling and Street
Cleaning company ordinance which h'as
pnssed the lower branch and was call
ed up for third nnd llnal readinc. Tt
gives the company the exclusive right
to spi Inkle the streets, permission to
use city lire hydrants at Us own ex
pense and liability for damages and
repairs of hydiants as well as their
teplacement where deemed necessary
by the chief of the flic depot tmont.
TWO MEMBERS OBJECTED.
Mr. Fellows moved that th'e ordi
nance be tabled until the next meet
ing' and Mr. Chittenden offered an
amendment that action be definitely
postponed, giving as his reason that,
nslde from his opposition to giving
away a valuable franchise, ho wis op
posed to sprinkling asphalt pavements.
He had contended at a previous meet
ing that water and dust combined to
foim a minding powder which seilous
ly wore the surface of asphalt and
shottened Its peilod of usefulness 10
per cent. At that meeting his amend
ment excluding asphalt from the ordl
nnnca met with defeat.
Mr. Chittenden's amendment last
night to Indeilnltely postpone action
en the ordinance was defeated by the
follow Ing vote of C to 7:
Ayes Hoss, Thomas, Chittenden, Fra
blc. McAndiews, Williams -K votes.
Nays Finn, Koche, )un Manley,
Schroeder, Burns " voles.
Mr. Fellows' motion to postpone ac
tion until the next meeting was then
ndopted,
. When the select council oullnance
creating the oillce of plumbing inspec
tor was called up on second reading
Mr. Chittenden offeied an objection to
one of Its provisions limiting the per
iod of Kervlce to one term of three
years, lie put his objection In the
form of an amendment making the
term of net vice unlimited, explaining
that the city should have no obstacle
to keeping a good appointive olllclal
In oillce.
MB. MANLEY'S IIFMOB.
"Oh, that's all right, Chaille," ex
claimed Chairman Manley, to the
amusement of all the members; "they
want to keep such fellows us you and
me from plotting to be too long In of
llce." The humor of the comment ap
pears In the fact that Mr. Manley, nf
ter serving eleven years In the coun
cils was on Tuesday defeated In the
Twelfth ward for re-election
Mr. Boche presented the argument
that Inasmuch as tepresentatlve plum
bers had diafted the ordinance that
It be considered according to their
wishes. He did not think nny mem
ber should advocate any change and
thus possibly destioy some reform the
designers of tlio measure had In mind.
The amendment proposed by Mr.
Chittenden to extend the tetm of the
office was adopted by the following
vote of 8 to S:
Ayes Boss, Finn, Thoinus, Williams,
Durr, ChltterUen, McAndrews, Fellows
8 votes.
Nays Kearney, Hoclie, Scinoe.ler,
Burns, Frable 5 votes.
Tho ordinance passed second leading
as amended.

12, 1S97, in which ho gave to his wife,
Minnie Gallagher, his hotel property, in
Jessup, and one-half of the lot on
which the hotel pioperty stands.
To two of his children, James and
Mary, he left the double house and tho
lot appurtenant thereto on Maple stteet
In the borough ot Blakely. A single
dwelling house and lot on Main stteet,
Blakely, he gae to his sister, Mrs. 11.
J. Cummlnga; a single dwelling house
and lot In Throop he gave to his
brother, Patrick II. Gallagher. To his
daughter, Margaret Gallagher, he gave
the single dwelling, situate in the rear
of the hotel piopeitv In Jessup, and
one-half the lot on which the two
bulldlng.i are located; also a house near
the Giassv Island shaft, built on land
leased from tho Delawaie and Hudson
Canal company. He also bequeathed

The remainder of his estate he di

Patrick II. Gallagher and Bernard J.
Cummlngs, brother and brother-in-law,
lespectlvely, of the decedant, weie
named as executors and Daniel G,
Jones, James II. Lally and George
Mountford were the subscribing wit
nesses. Attorney James J, O'Malley
drew up the Instiument.
The will Is contested by Michael Cor
coran, guardian of James, Mary and
Maggie Gallagher, the minor children
of the decedant, and by Mrs, Minnie
Gallagher, the widow. They claim that
the bequests to the decedant's brother
and sister were biought about through
the use of undue Influence and that the
decedant, because of his drinking hah
Its, was not In a testamentary capacity
when he signed the will. They want
the will set aside and the propeity dis
tributed according to the statutory pro
visions In ruses where there Is no will.
Attorney O'Malley and the three sub
scribing witnesses testified, yestetday,
that Gallagher was sober to all ap
pearances when he signed the will. It
was drafted, Mr. O'Malley said, from
dhectlons given by the decedant and
was rend und explained to him befoie
he signed it.
Mrs. Gallagher, the widow, and vari
ous other witnesses testified that Gal
lagher was drunk on that day and thnt
he wus habltuully drunk, lendeilng him
unlit to make a will.
The decision was reseived, C. E.

SCRANTON WHIST
CLUB IS JiO MORE
On March I It Will Have Ceased
to Exist.
ADSORBED DY THE DICYCLE CLUB
Whist Orcnnlntion llronclicd tlio
Pin u nnd Special Coninilttoen from
the Clubs Agreed Upon tlio Condi
tion! .llondnr Afternoon.-Last
Mslit tho lllcyclo Club Ratified the
Arrangement nnd tho Whist Club
Mill Noon Do tho Knmn 1'lilng.
An arrangement has been concluded
whereby the Scranton whist club is to
be absorbed by the Scianton Bicycle
club.
The matter wus consummated last
evening at a special meeting of the
bicycle club, convened to hear a re
port from Its special committee re
cently appointed to confer with a slm
llar committeo from the whist club,
The committee negotiations were en
dorsed. President D. B. Atherton pre
sided. The rules were suspended and
the whist club members who did not
already belong to the bicycle organi
zation were elected to membership. The
whist club will unquestionably rntlfy
the arrangement ns the proposition
originally came from that club through
its special committee.
The whist club, composed of thirty
two members, is to wholly lose Its Iden
tity, the members becoming fully en
titled to nil the bicycle club privileges.
The regular Initiation fee will not be
demanded, In view of the transfer of
the whist club's furniture and equip
ment, but the whist club members will
continue to pay the bicycle club's stip
ulated dues of $12 per year, Ton of the
thirty-two whist club membets pre
viously belonged to the bicycle club
EFFECT OF THE PLAN.
The whist club Is to relinquish 11h
looms in tho Mears building March 1.
Its membeishlp In the American Whist
league will be tiunsferred to the bi
cycle club, In which the whist players
will have no more nor less distinction
than the other members of the club,
excepting as they may participate In
whist mntches. It Is likely that a
whist committeo will be added to the
list of bicycle club standing commit
tees. B. P, Connolly, chairman; F. E. Beers
nnd "Wallace M. Ruth, comprised the
bicycle committee, nnd J. W. Dusen
bury, chairman; and J. F. Broadbent
and T. II. Dale, the whist committee,
which brought the arrangement about.
There wns no quibbling over the de
tails of tho plan, as each organization
realized It had something to gain. The
two committees met together and
reached a quick conclusion Monday af
ternoon. The bicycle club gains twenty-two
new members of splendid standing In
the community, a quantity of furni
ture and whist supplies comparatively
new, added prestige as an organization
nnd some of the best material in the
state for a whist team.
WHIST CLUB GAIN.
The whist players gain the advant
ages of a more commodious home, re
duced expenses, a playing resort more
accessible to their homos, and the
assurance that they can play nightly,
If desired, instead of at stated inter
vals, and can always obtain good play
ers to "1111 In.'"
THEATRICAL ATTRACTIONS.
The SportliiK Duchess,
Tho success which greeted the original
production of this drama remains no mys
tery when one as seen it. Tho play was
evidently constructed for hat purpose,
and to make sure, its authuis have in
troduced about every situation, arttllee
and spectacular effect known to the melo
dramatic trado It combines high lite, se
ductlon, horse-racing, estrangement and
divorce, tho auction block, tho cigarette
smoking adventuress, the little Lord
Fauntleroy son nnd we forget what all,
yet so deftly and with such a swittnVss
of action that tho effects are fully as
thrilling as if tho ingredients were less
nnclent. In no sense Is the play one to be
taken seriously as a bit of dramatic
literature, but ns a symposium of melo
dramatic odds nnd ends woven together
In u ilist-ciass fabric with a thrill at ev
ery seam, it Interests tho student and
whnt is much mere to tho point, enriches
the box ofllce. Last evening's audience
was one of tho largest which has gath
ered In tho Lyceum this season and from
Its frequent bursts of laughter und ap
plause it Is fair to infor that it was also
one of the best pleased. The cast was
only fair.
