THIS AND THAT.
There Is one thing tho police depart
ment should do right away break up the
remnant of the gang of highwaymen who
for several years have mudo tho western
end of Luzerne ttrcct u legion to be
dreaded after nightfall. Several mem
bers of the gang are now In the peniten
tiary and others would bo there If tlio
criminal court Jurors who passed upon
their cases did their duty. Numerous
complaints still corao from that region
showing that the backbone of tho gans
has not yet been broken. The police au
thorities say that officers enough cannot
be spared to propeily protect tho infested
territory. That Is not the proper way
to Maw the situation. Wherever crlmo is
rampant there Is the greatest need for
officers and there they should bo sta
tioned until the law breakers are driven
behind prltcn bars or cueiced Into giv
ing UP their evil ways. Nothing to BUiely
deters the criminal os the certainty that
he will be punlthcd for his transgressions,
So long as the Luxerne btreet gang is
convil.ced that Nitre Is a reasonibie
chance of escaping ditcctlon and punish
meut Just so lorg will its members con
tinue to hold-up and tob people. The
minute they realize that tho odds of the
game are very much against them they
will stop.

SCRANTON ENTERPRISE.
New Engineering and Construction
Company Organized with A. II.
Dunning at Its Ilcad--Plnn of
Operation.
A new Scranton enterprise which
promises to meet with peculiar suc
cess has been launched under the title
of the Dunning Engineering- and Con
struction company. It Is a stock cor
poration in which innny well known
Scranton men are interested. A. Jl.
Dunning, tho well known civil engineer
and surveyor, Is manager of the com
pany. He has surrrounded himself
with a corps of competent ensln'rs
second to none in the country.
The purpose of the1 company is to
conduct a general engineering busl
nei in all its branches throughout the
country and to promote and construct
any private enterprise. Mr. Dunning
hits placed on the staff of the com
pany the mofct competent engineers In
tho country to bo Known as "consult
ing engineers." In this number Is Col
onel George Waring, until recently su
perintendent of public works In New
York city, and an engineer of marked
ability and author of several works.
He will have several corps of engineers
fully equipped nnd is prepared to start
out on any work at any point in the
country within a fow hours from the
time of notification.
Th? ofllces of the company are on the
eighth floor of tho Mcars building.
Three rooms jto occupied for the pres
ent. New In-itruments and other equlp-
pago is coming in daily and this week
Mr. Dunning expects to have a com
plete outfit for several corps of engi
neers. A long dl&tance telephone is
being placed In the rooms which will
be open from 8 a. m. until 6 p, m.,
every day except Sunday. Mr. Dim
nlng's ability as nn engineer is too
well known In Scranton for superflu
ous comment, but to those who do not
know him it may be said that he is an
engineer classed among the best in tho
United States.
Among other things the new company
will give specJal attention to measur
ing coal lands for the benefit of lot
owners and will also furnish the best
form of expert testimony on any branch
of engineering in a court case. The
company is now ready for business
with the scope of Its operations unlim
ited. i
LAKE ARIEL TODAY.
Aflords tho Greatest Enjoyment in
tho Land.
Two strong features will attract
thmisands to Lake Ariel today. First,
it is the coolest, nnd most beautiful
tesort In the land, and for real com
fort and pleasure.lt cannot be equalled.
Go there and free yourself of tho sti
lling city air. Secondly, tho greatest
aquatic exhibition overseen In this sec
tion will be given at tho lake today
by the celcbiatedPaulRoynton World's
ater Show company. The programme

been arranged betweeen the best ama
teur clubs. Trains will leave tho Erie
and Wyoming depot every hour. Tho
beet accommodations have been made
for the comfort of all who spend to

sort. A fact that should not be lost sight
of 1? tlmt no charge Is made to see thl3
most wonderful exhibition. Your ticket
to tho lake entitles you to enjoy the
many advantages today.
MANY QO TO SEE "NANA."
Thursday Afternoon from 3 to
O'clock Set Apart for Ludios.
"Nana," tho beautiful painting
on
exhibition at the Mcars building, has
been viewed by a great many people
since Its arrival In this ct. It is
pronounced the finest specimen of fig
ure painting that has been produced
in modern times, and In delicacy of
treatment, manipulation of color and
artistic quality It has no equal.
The face and head are perhaps the
chief parts, and as one sees the lips
parted, the bright blue eyes spark
ling and tho whole face wreathed In
smiles, ono expects monentarlly to hear
a silvery laugh echoing therefrom. But
still after contemplating the other
parts of the picture, one insensibly
turns one's gaze back to the face, It Is
hard to believe that "Nana" is only a
picture, Its realism and fidelity of
treatment aro so wonderful. It is a
picture that, once seen, can never bo
forgotten.
At the request of a large number of
influential patrons to have a distinct
time set apart for ladles to view
"Nana" tho management begs to an
nounce a special matinee on Thursd' v
next, between tho hours of 2 and 6 p.
m. for that purpose.

the supply, scores of orders continued
from banks, merchants and lawyers.

but the breeze was only slight. The
small shower at night helped matters
somewhat. Nay Aug park was
crowded. It was tho only place
that afforded retreat from the weath
er. The street car company rose
up to the occasion and kept plenty of
cars In progress. A flve-nil'jOte sche
dule was In effect, and every car was
loaded with pasbengers.
Tho Sunday trains on the Delaware
and Hudson railroad were well patron
ized, especially those northward bound.
Crowds went from here to Carbondale,
and from thence to Crystal lake. The
livery stables were well patronized,
and all roads leading towards cool re
sorts such as Mountain Lake, Elm
hurst boulevard, Lake WincJla, and Lily
Lake wete frequented by many peo
ple. No matter where one looked yster
day up to 5 o'clock In the afternoon
there wasn't a flag floating, but every

were watcrfcoaked. There was not a
breath of air stirring. The weather
Indications are that rain will visit this
section tomorrow.
A year ago this time the heat was
almost as oppressive, but it fell two or
three degrees below what It is now.
HIS CONDITION WAS ALARMING.
Intense Heat Has Ureallr Aggravated
Chief IIIcltOT's Cute.
The condition of Chief Hiel.cv was so
alarming yesterday morning tnat his
attending physician, Dr. Haggerty,
gave explicit instructions to the nurse
attnndlng Mr. Hlckey that no one was
to be allowed to see him.
Dr. Haggerty remained at his pa
tient's bedMdo all morning. At noon
he was much relieved, though it was
feired that Mr. Hlckey would succumb
to the intense heat during the morn
ing. About noon a largo electric fan,
throwing a currrent of rcfre&hlng air
was placed in tho room, and the re
mainder of the day was passed in
comparative ease. A Tribune reporter
was received last evening by Chief
Hlckey. He told the reporter he was
doing nicely, and would be about agin
shortly. He Is unable to move his left
leg- and his left arm Is badly discol
ored and bruised. Tho bandages were
removed last evening from his head.
FIREMEN WILL BE PROMPT.
Fires That May Drenk Out Today
A ro to Do CHrniully Looked After.
Aftlnt; Chief McManus of tho fire de
partment said yesterday he had Issued
no special crders to the vurlous cots-panl-s
(or Fourth of July duty. He
hopol fcr a mor) liberal do.vniall of
rain than occurred last night to render
the roofs of buildings less combustible
and less liable to ignition from fire
ctackers and sky rock'ets. Eveiy com
pany will bo in readiness to respond to
alarms as quickly and effectively as it
is In their power to do so.
Tho supply of fireworks and pyrotech
nics is considerably smaller this Fourth
than in any of recent years, and Chief
McManus does not look for the neces
sity of extra precaution.
An alarm comes without fall every
Fourth from box I!5 at the1 corner of
Main avenue and Jackson street.
REORQANIZINQ THE GUARD.
Major S. D. Cameron, Muttering Offi
cer, Will lie llore Tomorrow.
Preparations are being made for the
visit here tomorrow of Major Simon
B. Cameron, who is coming to direct
the reorganization of four city com
panies of the Thirteenth regiment.
These will bo Companies A, B, C and
D.
Captain Stokes, who has been enroll
ing men for Company D, has secured
the minimum number, fifty. Lieuten
ant Itaub, of Company C, has arranged
for adding to that company's roll the
men signed for Company F, of the
West Side, which section of the city
would not otherwise be represented In
the reorganized regiment, it being in
tended to recruit Companies E, F, G
and H, of the Second battalion, from
Honesdale, Allentown, Stroudsburg
and Kaston..
Major TV. S. Millar may be selected
for tho captaincy of Company B, which
Is being recruited by Lieutenant Scott.
This company already has the mini
mum number of men onrolled. Cap-
tain James O. Dlmmick Id directing the
recruiting for Company A.
The reorganization of tho Thirteenth
and other regiments is being encour
aged and facilitated In every possible
way by the state authorities who do
not wish to be without n homo guard
In tho event of the need of such. Fur
ther, they arc anxious to bo prepared
for tho expected president's call for
more troops. In the latter event tho
guard would bo turned over to the
government as before, the members
saying "yes" or "no" Individually and
the reorganization of tho guard would
begin over again.
Tho state makes an annual appro
priation of $200 per company for Its
National guard. This would provide
JS00 for the four new Scranton com
panies. THE IRISH CELEDRATION.

FIRE ON WVOMINQ AVENUE.
Dnmage to tho Extent of 92,000
Donn tho Anthracite lintel.
Hot coals from a range In tho kitch
en of the Anthracite hotel at the cor
ner of Wyoming avenue and Center
street burned through the floor and Ig
nited some boxes in the cellar. A
fierce fire began to rage, and had n
good start before tho arrival of the
Crystals, Chemicals, Nay Augs and
Hook and Ladders. The alarm was
sounded at 3.40 yesterday morning.
The fire spread up thtough to the
second story and burned between the
partitions. An hour's attack by tho
companies conquered the blaze. The
dam? go will amount to $2,000 to tho
building and furniture. The barroom
escaped with a slight scorching. The
building Is owned by the Welthel
estate, and the hotel business is con
ducted by M. J. Norton.
SUNDAY TRAINS ARE POPULAR.
Those Run on the Delaware
nnd
Hudson Were Crowded.
The popularity of Sunday trains on
the Delaware and Hudson railroad
was attested In the large number of
passengers that availed themselves of
the opportunity to travel ye&terday
between Wilkes-Barre and Carbondale.
The six trains each way were crowded.
Not as many cars were used on each
train as on weekdays, and on some of
them the passengers had to stand up,
being unable to find seats. One coach
and a combination baggage car and
smoker made up each ttaln.
The Ontario and Western railroad
began tunning Sunday trains a week
ago yesterday, and Its trains yesterday
were likewise crowded.
JUDGE FELL FROM SWINQ.
Ho Was Dadly Cut and Bruised About
the I'ncu.
John Judge, the 17-year-old brother
of Jim Judge, the boxer, fell from a
swing Saturday In Nay Aug park and
met with a painful injury to his face.
He was twelve feet from terta lirma
when he lost his grip and tumbled from
tho awlnir.
He struck on his hands and knees
and with such force that his face
bobbed against the ground and his
nose was cut along the ridge. He was
taken to the Lackawanna hospital, and
three stitches were necebsary to bind
'ip the cut. He' was otherwise bruised,
but the extent of his Injuries will not
keep him in the hospital mote than a
week.

MEN'S STATEMENT OF CASE.
A Ftrlke is on at Storrs No. 1 shaft
of the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western company, by tho withdrawal
of twenty-one drivers employed In the
14-foot vein. The cause Is a grievance
arising over wages. Preliminary Fteps
were taken by the drivers Friday when
six of them quit work. Their action
Instilled tho spirit of striking in tho
other drivers who went out Saturday.
Heretofore the drivers have received
for a full day's work $1.25. but recently
they were Informed that the price
would be cut down to $1.05 and H 10.
This, they state, does not compensate
them for their labor. In addition to the
time for the day's work, they fre
quently work half an hour overtime,
they say, and receive no extra pay.
The strike threatens to spread to No.
,2 shaft, where a large number of driv
ers are employed. It may possibly ef
fect the gate tenders.
Tho drivers' strike on Saturday did
not suspend operations In the mines
as the men's places were filled by com
pany hands and other operatives.
A general strike Is announced to be
gin tomorrow, as those now out have
much bympathy from their fellow
drivers in the adjoining Bhoft. Thev
predict n general tie-up unless their
grievances are Bettlcd.
LITTLE FINGER BLOWN OFF.
Accident to Tommy Gardner, ol Itatl
road Avenue, Ucllovuo.
The first Fourth of July patriot Is
Tommy Gardner, of Railroad avenue,
Bellevue. He is 10 years old, and
made of stuff that wins battles.
Himself and some companions were
shooting fire crackers yesterday morn
ing on the street near his home, and
the little finger of his right hand was
blown oft with a charge from a 15
cent cannon, that he didn't know was
loaded. Ho picked the cannon up to
see how it worked, and obtained the
Information in painful shape.
He was taken to the Lackawanna
hospital. During the operation of
dressing the wound he exhibited great
courage, and was more put out be
cause he cannot be with his compan
ions to have a good time today than
because he will go minus a finger the
rest of his life.
OBSERVANCE OF JULY FOURTH.
There Will Do No General Celebra
tion in Scranton Today.
There will be no general celebration
In Scranton today, but the city will
bo by no means dull for there are in
numerable small events that will pro
vide pleasure and excitement for those
who desire to participate In them.
Saturday night there was a very lib
eral display of fireworks about the
city and last night the bombardment
of the heavens was continued, though
to a lesser extent. Tonight, If the
weather proves favorable, there will
probably be the greatest private dis
plays of fireworks In the history of the
city.
The war excitement has given the
Fourth of July a new meaning to
thousards and It will be observed with
something more nearly approaching the
true spirit of the day than it has been
In years.
In many of the churches of the city
yesterday the services were of a
strongly patriotic character. Fre
quent and eloquent references were
made to the heroic conduct of tho
thousands of bravo American soldiers
who are dying for their flag before
Santiago and prayers for them were
oflored up.
