In spite of tho regret tho members of

In tho fact that there loss Is another

antness between tho North and South.
It Is probable that a very pleasant
surprise will bo given tho captain at
the barracks on Price street.
TRUCK LEFT THE' RAILS.
The Scranton Traction company has
experienced considerable trouble lately
with the large vestlbuled cars used In
Its service. Yesterday afternoon about
1.40 o'clock an accident happened to
Car 303, of this class, which was Inward
bound, in charge of Conductor Daniels
nnd Motorman Bunnell. The scene of
tho accident was on the grade on West
Lackawanna avenue, Just above the
Delaware, Lackawanna nnd Western
crossing. The car, as Is the custom,
was brought to a standstill at the head
of the grade, whero a sharp cure leads
off Ninth street onto West Lackawan
na avenue. In running out of the turn
Into tho straight line the rear truck
left the track and ran along on tho
Belgian blocks with which the street is
paved. The truck fortunately moved
in a parallel line with tho rails, though
about two feet outside of them, and the
car traveled for some distance in this
wny before it could be stopped.
The wreck car was soon on tho scene
and the truck replaced. A delay of
about forty-live minutes occurred, but
the passengers of the cars moving in
both dlicctlons wero transferred.
SCHOOL BOYS CARRY REVOLVERS.
That there is law prohibiting the
carrying of concealed weapons does not
seem to deter boys from violating it.
This fact is evidenced by the discovery
of no less than three revolvers upon
the persona of an equal number of boys
of about fourteen years of ago in ono
of tho rooms of public school No. 18,
Friday. The discovery was brought
about by an investigation into tho
cause of the firing of shots in Roberts
court, which runs Immediately along
side of the lot on which tho building
stands. The firing was done during the
period of recess and was reported to
Principal John T. Jones by tho teacher
of tho room In which tho lad, who had
been pointed out to her as the one who
fired the shots, was a pupil.
Principal Jones requested the deliv
ery of the weapon to him, and further
Investigation proved the presence of
0 other two. The weapons are of a
cheap, ordinary type and small calibre,
but none the less dangerous.
A BOLD THIEF THIS.
Pedestrians passing along West Lack-
awanna avenue, near tho Central Rail
road of New Jersey depot, about G
o'clock Saturday afternoon, witnessed
a bold attempt at highway robbery,
which dumbfounded them and gavo the
would-bo highwayman his needed op
portunity to escape. Tho gentleman
upon whom tho attempt was made Is
Passenger Agent J. S. Swisher, of the
Central road. Ho was waiting for a
street car to carry him to his residence
on South Main avenue, and drew his
purse from his pocket to tako tho
amount of his fare. He was thus en
gaged when a dark, forblddlng-looklng
Individual who was passing by, tried to
seize the purse.
With a quick backward swing of his
left hand, Mr. Swisher knocked tho
fellow from his feet Before Jio could
be detained, the thief scrambled to his
feet, rushed across tho bridge and dls.
appeared along Cliff street.

Rev, Francis Hodur, pastor of St.
Stanlslus Polish church, of Locust
street, who has been in Europe for tho
past two months, reached tho city at
12.15 yesterday over the Central road.
Ho was met nt the station by his as
sistant, Father Szumowskl, and n com
mittee of his parishioners, and Editor
Langowskl, of the Strag, a Polish
weekly.
Four carriages were in wnitlng nnd
tho party was driven to tho resldenco
of Father Hodur, on Locust street, and
awaiting on him was his large congre
gation. A demonstration took place.
From Pittston avenue to the residence,
up Locust street, tho societies of the
church stood with open ranks, while
tho carriages passed through. After
lunch, Father Hodur received his par
ishioners. A Tribune reporter called at his resi
dence at the close of tho evening ser
vices nnd wns granted an interview.
The reverend gentleman told In detail
of his visit to Russia, Austria, und
Rome. His trip to the latter place was
of the greatest Interest to his people
and) tho Polish people throughout the
valley. Father Hodur said:
"I have been away for two months,
and reached New York city yesterday
at noon, on the steamer New York. My
mission to Rome, you know, was an
Important one. I went there as the
special representative of my congrega
tion, St. Albert's church at Prlceburg
and the Blessed Virgin congregation of
Philadelphia, to present to His Holi
ness, Pope Leo, through Cardinal Van
atelll, a petition signed by committees
of these congregations nnd by a com
mittee of the National Polish alliance,
of Chicago, an organization ot 14,000
members, to ask tho pope to bring
about many needed reforms in tho
church affairs of tho Polish people of
this country. The petition was sent to
His Holiness Feb. 28, last month, and
In the document we nsked for tho con
sideration of these four Imperative re
orms: First, that a Polish bishop be
sent to America; secondly, self-government
among the Polish people, nnd new
rules in the mnnaglng of church funds
bo adopted; thirdly, that church prop
erties shall be In the name of the con
gregation, and not deeded to the bishop
of the diocese, nnd the last, that the
Polish people select their pastors. To
explain these points clearly let me say
that we do not object to be under the
Jurisdiction of the present bishop of
this diocese, but the Polish people are
difficult to understand, hence It Is ap
parent why a bishop of our tongue Is
needed. The affairs of our people are
badly managed, and we feel that the
Polish people themselves should select
their priests. All those changes are
needed to put an end to discord and
bad feeling so prevalent among our
people In this country."
RELATIVES HAVE A FIGHT.
Murk Coyne wns arraigned before Al
derman Ruddy, Saturday night, charged
with assault and battery and attempt
ing to kill his brother-in-law, Martin
Corbett, who was too badly Injured to
appear, and in his absence Mrs. Cor
bett was present at the hearing and
gave testimony against her brother.
She stated that tho defendant and a
friend, James Corcoran, visited her
home Saturday and after much pleas
ant chatting her brother suggested that
a pall of beer be sent for, and he offered
his services to go for the beverage.
The suggestion nnd the Invitation were
accepted. Accordingly, Corbett went to
a nearby saloon nnd soon returned with
the beer. All partook of It, and with
out any cause her brother ordered his
friend from her home, and to be agree
able Corcoran left.
Coyne became Indignant at the au
dacity of his brother-in-law and com
manded him to leave his house. A
quarrel and a tussle was the outcome,
and both men landed In the yard and
began a battle royal, and In the con
flict Coyne seized a good-sized stone
and unmercifully beat his opponent.
Several gashes in Corbett's head and
face were Inflicted and his right hand
was chewed. Alderman Ruddy held
Coyne In $1,000 ball. E. P. Williams
qualified as. his bondsman.

Carlsbad Water
a Natural Alterative
Carlsbad Water is in no sense
a mere purgative, as most people
believe, but is an alterative and
climinativc remedy, which dis
solves tenacious bile, allays irrita
tion and removes obstruction by
aiding nature, and not by sudden
andcxccssivcstimulation,as most
cathartic remedies do. Its action
is certain and a cure when effected
is permanent. Not infrequently
patients have to use the Carlsbad
Sprudcl Salt, in addition to the
water, as a laxative.
Beware of imitations. The gen
uine Carlsbad Water and Carlsbad
Sprudel Salt must have the seal
of the City of Carlsbad and the

NORTH SCRANTON.
Two Now Churches.
Two congregations In this end took
piellmlnary steps towards the erection
of new churches yesterday. The I'.rst
was that of the North Main avenue
Baptist church. After dismissing the
congregation at the morning service
a short business session was held, at
which tho advisability of erecting a
new edifice was discussed. Action on
the matter, however, was deferred
until this evening when it will be de
cided whether it will bo better to
build on the site of the present church
or to secure another location. u.ne
church as It now stands wns erected
thirteen years ago. When Rev. W. G.
Watklns, present pastor, took charge
about six years ago. ho found It heav
ily encumbered with debt, but by his
energetic and untiring efforts the lat
vistage of debt was swept away some
time past. His eloquent discourses,
have attracted large congregations and
the attendance has reached such a
mark that It was found almost Im
possible to seat them.
The second congregation was that of
the Welsh Congregational. Nothing de
finite was decided upon at yesterday's
meeting, but it can be stated authori
tatively that a new edifice will be
built in tho near future. The prob
abilities are that a centrally located
site will be procured.
TWO FUNERALS.
The funerals of Miss Lizz'o Hodg
son, wife of Thomas Hodgson, and
Charles Manor Perry, infant son of
Patrolman and Mrs. Perry, were held
yesterday. The remains of both were
conveyed from their respective house"
on Parker street to the First Chris
tian church on North Main avenue.
Hero services were conducted by the
Rev. R. R. Bulgin, pastor of the
church. Tho presence of two bodies
of persons in life so closely related
moved many to tears.
Mr. Bulgin, in his funeral oration,
expressed words of comfort to the
mourners. A choir of well trained
voices rendered several Impressive
Tho floral offerings were beautiful
and many. At the conclusion of the
services the funeral cortege proceeded
to the Dunmore Protestnnt cemetery
whero Interment was made.
MINER PAINFULLY BURtfED.
