geon at the Lackawanna hospital, will te
tlre from that position the latter part
of this month, when his year will nn.-o
expired. The rules of tho hospital will
not permit a physician to remain thero
longer than that period. During the lrst
six months ho Is a junior houco surgeon
and during the last half of his, year ho
curries tho title and responsibilities of
benlor house surgeon. Dr. Newbcrrylsnm
bltlous and studious with a natural apti
tude for his ptofesslon and Is well fitted
to win laurels for himself wherever ho

his homo In Jersey City, almost Imme
diately after completing his medical stud
ies and has won many warm Irlends

of Ave years. Mr. Glldea has been a jus
tice of the peace In Archbald for years
and the stories that aro told of hid ad
ministration of Justice would mako an
Interesting volume. Ills honor's court
was noted for the absenco of red tapo
and the strong common sense that per
vaded his decisions. Last February ho
was a candidate for re-election but
through a misunderstanding his name
did not appear on the ticket and his op-
ponent. a man named Dougher, was elect
ed. Then Glldea bethought him that
Archbald was entitled to another justice
and he prepared a petition and had It
presented to Governor Hastings, who ap
pointed him. Several yeart, tgo tho
'Squire created a sensation by nppcaring
among the dudes in the Hoffman house

CAPTAIN RODLINQ'S SWORD.
Mayor llalley Chosen to Present II,
nnd n Wnteh to Lonn Dnv.
Chief Gurroll and the police force,
with tho exception of a few patrolmen
who could not ho spared from day
duty, met Saturday nfternoon In head
quarters to arrange for presenting tho
sword and accoutrements to Captain

sult a superior officer to go ahead and
attend to It to the best of their Judg
ment. In that way they will get credit
for prompt and effective work.
HE DSEDHISIIEAD.
Or. D. 11. Hand Showed n Crowd i
Practical Wnr of Getting a Ilorso
Out oi n Hole.
Dr. D. B. Hand went to Dunmoro
Saturday and had an accident that
might have cost him one of his horses.
On Cherry street a ditch for a water
pipe was dug from one of the houses
to the center of the road, at which end
there was a hole large enough to per
mit tho plumbers to work In tapping
the pipe. There was a hitching post
on tho opposite curb, and the space be
tween the cost nnd the hole was just
barely wldo enouch for a vehicle to
pass. On his way up the doctor passed
safely enouch, but on his return trip
he did not.
As the horses' hind legs were on a
line with tho ditch the one on that side
began to prance and side-step, and
down it went backwards Into the hole
until its head was all that was above
ground.
Several men came quickly to render
assistance, nnd then it was the doc
tor's practical common sense was dis
played. The men helped to unhitch the
other horse first and then to loosen tho
traces of the fallen animal. One man
said ho knew where he could get a
rope and tackle, but the doctor said no.
The idea of how the thirsty crow got
a drink out of the deep pitcher camo
to him. He thought If the crow raised
the water by dropping pebbles in tho
pitcher, he could raise tho horse by
filling up the hole gradually. He di
rected the work of two men with
shovels and little by little the bottom
of the ditch was raised until the horse
was able to step out. With every two
or three shovelfulls he would spank
tho horse gently to make It lift lis
legs and pack down the dirt. It took
Just fifteen minutes to extricate the
horse by this method.
SWEENEY MADE A MISTAKE.
Ho Thought Patrolman Flaherty
Could Not Arrest film.
At 2.30 o'clock yesterday morning
John Sweeney and Michael Dougherty
were loafing around the Scranton
House. Patrolman Flaherty told them
to move on. Sweeney got saucy. He was
told what to do If he wished not to he
arrested, but ho lemarked that he
didn't think Flaherty could take him.
Suiting tho action to tho word ho
mado a quick attack and struck Fla
herty a heavy blow In the eye, black
ening It. He no sooner did than the
club descended with Flaherty's might
on his head. Dougherty took a hand In.
He caught the club and tried to pre
vent Flaherty from using It on Swee
ney. The latter broke away, but
Dougherty was held and turned over
to Patrolman Goerlltz, who had to
bring his club Into service.
Flaherty gave chase to Sweeney and
rounded him up with the assistance of
Patrolman Karlus, under the Linden
street bridge. Sweeney and Dougherty
are ubout 27 years old. They were
committed by Mayor Bailey to jail for
20 days.
AGU SENT TO JAIL.
Unll Was Not Forthcoming nnd He
Wns Henl Up to Await Trlnl.
Frank Agll. the special officer who
permitted a prisoner committed by Al
derman Millar to Jail to escape, was
himself committed to jail Saturday.
Ho was given a hearing Friday and
could not give ball. He begged hard
to bo allowed a day or so to hunt up
a laondsman, but tho best tho alder
man would do was to send him to tho
Center street station until the next
day. Ball not forthcoming he was eent
up to awult trial.

OF BONTA HISTORY
Capital Stock ot Olosi Pipe and Condlt
Company to Be Sold.
MAN WHO HAS INVESTED LARGELY
IN STOCK OF TWO BONTA COM
PANIES SAYS THE SALE IS FOR
THE PURPOSE OF PUTTING CON
TROL OF COMPANY IN HANDS OF
A MAN WHO WILL BE ABLE
TO GIVE PROPER ATTENTION TO
ITS MANAGEMENT.
Notices are posted on the poles at tho
corners of court house square and have
been advertised In the city newspapers
concerning the sale of tho capital stock
of tho Ront.i (litis Pipe and Conduit
company next Thursday forenoon nt 0
o'clock In the arbitration room. The
stock will be sold by the sheriff to
the highest bidder.
A Scranton man who Invested con
siderably In Homa stock was asked by
a Tribune reporter last night what the
meaning of these notices Is. and he
said the sale Is for the purpose ot
putting control of the majority of .the
stock In tho possession of one man, who
has promised to run the company on a
business-like plan.
For nearly a year the Glass Pipe
company has been at a stand still. The
reporter's Informant said that there Is
no question ubout the success ot the
operation of making glass pipes. The
concern, he said, has not been prop
erly managed, but It will be after this
one man takes charge.
The Plate Class concern Is a thing
of the past. Everything that belonged
to the company has been sold, except
the patents which are hold by the
stockholders. He stated that the
manufacture of glass pipe Is a success,
If propetly managed.
PREPARING TO PAY THE DEFICIT.
Representatives ol United Irlsh
Amcrlcnn Societies Met.
Representatives of tho United Irish
American societies of the county, under
whose auspices the field day events
were scheduled for July 4 in Athletic
park, met last night In John Boyle
O'Reilly council rooms. The yocletles
do not form an amalgamated federa
tion, although a meeting will be held
on Sunday evening. July 31, to effect
a permanent organization.
Some months ago a party of proml-
nnt Irishmen decided to Interest the
Ancient Order of Hlbernlnns.the Younj,
Men's Institute nnd tho Temperance
societies In tho plan to hold a celebra
tion In honor of the centennial of the
Irish uprising of 170S. As many of
them as were favorable to it were In
structed to send delgates to a meet
ing the time of which was appointed.
Conscious of tho vagaries of Fourth of
July weather the delegates pledged
their irspectlve societies to make good
any deficit that might result.
It rained on thi Fourth nnd tho
games postponed to the following Sat
urday drew nn attendance of less than
200. The games went on Just as If the
park wero crowded, nnd twenty-four
medals were won, fourteen of them,
gold, costing 510 apiece, and other ton
being of silver at $3 apiece. The de
ficit all told amounted to $325.
How to pay this off was the topic
under discussion last night, and the
decision was to raise the money this
forenoon on n note In one of the banks.
The societies that took part In the
preparations for tho celebration will
pay their pro rata share to meet the
note. Tho hills will 1c paid this week
and tho medals secured and presented
to tho winners.
