THIS AND THAT.
"Scranton ought to have an asphalt
repair plant of its own," said Mayor
Bailey as he jolted over the uneven
Euiface of Adams avenue In a car
riage the other day. "In fact If we arc
going to keep our asphalt paved streets
Jn any kind of condition wo must have
a repair plant. Then as soon as a
small hole appeared Jn the pavement
anywhere It would be repaired at once.
Under the present nnangement little
attention Is paid to a break In the
pavement until it assumes some pro
portions. It Is wonderful how rapidly
a small holj In the pavement enlatges.
A few weeks after the first symptom
of a break appears theie In a hole
that will require a square yard of
asphalt to fill and the longer Jt re
mains without attention the laiger the
hole and more expensive to repair It.
During the lecent repairs on some of
the atteets It wa3 found necessary to
replace almost the entire covering so
extensive was the patching. I believe
it would be a great economy If we
could take care of the as-plmlt repair
ing ourselves."
"David Johnson, one of the old re
tired rrlners of this valley, was seen
on the streets of town yesterday,"
says the Wllkes-Barre Record. "His
home Is In Ashley, but he has been
In Susquehanna for some time on a
farm with his brother. Mr. Johnson
Is 66 yeurs of age, Is in excellent health
and Is quite robust for a man of his
age. He returned yesteiday to look
after some of his buslncts. for thirty-three
yeiup he worked In the mines,
and when the Sugar Notch mine disas
ter occurred some eighteen years ago,
by which sixteen men were entombed,
he retired from mining, never to rturn.
Just before the fall or cave he and his
son Jarres heeded the warning and be
ing on the outside of the full they
were Saved from being entombed for
a week with the others, who finally
all escared. It was then that he re
solved never to enter tho mines ngaln.
His tools are still bulled in tho de
bris. Secretary Buckalcw of the Wllkes
Barre Yoi-jr Men's Christian assocla
tlun, has received a call to become as
sistant state iccretary and ho is very
favorably considering it. The state
tecretary Is S. M. Bard, who was for
merly secretary of the Wilkes-Parre
atsoilatinn, njid the duties are such
that an assistant Is needed, there hav
ing" been none for over a year. In
case Mr. Buckalew decides to go he
will probably leave here tame time in
August and his successor will probably
be a young man fiom Pittsburg, who
has been doing some good work In an
association there. Mr. Buckalew has
been eecretary of the Wllkes-Barre as
sociation for about four years, having
previously teen an office assistant,
then going to Pittsburg, where he re
mained for four years, being then call
ed to the association at Wllkes-Barre
when Mr. Bard became state secretary.

BURGLARS AT WORK.
They Made an Effort to Blow Open
the Safe of the T. H. Watts
Company.
Some time early Wednesday morn
Ins burglars blew open the safe In
the office of the T. II. Watts' company
on West Lackawanna avenue. Three
five-eighth holes were drilled Into the
safe and one charge of dynamite was
exploded. Chief of Polio Martin Gur
rell removed nnother charge, which
did not explode. He also found tho
third hole which had been drilled.
The affair was one of the most dar
ing perpetrated In this city for years
but the safe resisted the remarkable
strain and held Its contents secure.
A light is kept burning in the office
of the Watts building all night, but
tho safe set In the wall projects
towards Dockash court. This portion
of the hafe, which Is back of It, Is
boarded In and is In comparative dark
ness. Tho thieves ripped the boards
off and drilled a hole three inches deep
and five-eighths inch wide into the
safe. They filled the hole with giant
powder and fired It, but did no serious
damage. Then they drilled two holes
and filled one of them with dynamite
and connected the dynamite with a
fuse, at the end of which was a per
cussion cap. At this stage of the game
they must have been frightened away.
The safe contained only $20 and even
If the burglars had succeeded In open
ing the safo their reward would have
been small
Chief Gurrell Is of the opinion that
the job was the work of Inexperienced
cracksmen, probably the same ones
who recently visited tho Elmhurst
postofflee.

COMPANY C IS
NOW INJHE GUARD
MUSTEBED IN AT THE AHMORY
BY MAJOR CAMERON.
William Itaub Was Elected Captain,
D. W. Davis, First Lieutenant
and Robert W. Cooper Second Lieu
tenantAfter the Mustering in
Ceremonies Major Cameron Made a
Short Address to the Men He Will
Return Next Week to Muster in
Companies A and B.
Company C of tho National Guard
was mustered In at the Thirteenth
regiment armory last night by Major
Cameron. Eleven members were need
ed when the mustering ofUccrs reached
the armory to complete the quota of 63
men for Company C. This number
was secured nnd the last man was ex
amined by Surgeon Halberstadt and
his name recorded by Sergeant Rice at
0.33.
Major Cameron administered the
oath, after first reading the order un
der which ho received his authority to
muitcf companies for the guard.
The otder of business for the elec
tion of olllcers was next. W. A. Raub
wao nominated for captain. There
were no other nominations and he was
chosen unanimously. D. W. Davis
was the only one nominated for first
lieutenant nnd his election was made
by acclamation.
For bocond lieutenant there was n
contest. Robert W. Cooper, of the
West Side, and Edward F. Kingsbury
wote nominated. The result was 31 to
10 In favor of Cooper. It may bo ex
plained that Cooper had made a strong
canvass for two or three weeks, while
K'ngsbury entered the contest a few
dnys ago. There was a strong rivalry
between them, but the best of feeling
prevailed afterward. Captain Raub
announced that the company will meet
mxt Monday evening for business.
Tne non-commissioned officers will bo
appointed on that evening.
Major Cameron made a short speech
to the company as he was about to
leave. He said his relations with the
old Thirteenth were of the friendliest
character, and he hoped for a contin
uation of that feeling with the now
cuard. He always feels nt home in
Scranton. He Is always well treated
here, and he had a very enjoyable time
on this Inst visit even though the
work of mustering was tedious.
As he was leaving three cheers were
given In his honor, and three cheers
were given Colonel Ripple and Captain
Raub.
Major Cameron and staff will leave
at 6 o'clock this morning for Harris-burg-.
He will return some day next
week to muster In Companies A and B.
Twenty-three men were examined nnd
mustered in last night, eleven of whom
v ere for Company C. The other twelve
were about i-venly divided between the
two companies yet to be mustered.
The major does not know the day
he will return, but expects It will be
next Wednesday. He hopes when he
comes back that the remaining com
panies will have their quotas.
KILLED BY A FALL.
Death of Mrs. Catherine Connell,
of Capouse Avenue, by Falling
From Porch of Her Home.
Mrs. Catherine Conncll, of Sol Ca
pouse avenuo, was almost Instantly
killed at 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon
In an accident that precipitated her
from the balcony head first to the
pavement ton feet below. Her skull
was fractured and her neck was brok
en. She lived a few minutes, but was
not conscious. Her pulse fluttered
only feebly enough to keep the breath
of life In her.
Mis. Connell occupied the upstairs
of the building. She went out to sit
down for a brief rest from her house
hold duties, and leaned against the
railing. From all accounts her weight
caused It to give way. Having her
elbows resting on tho top rail and
leaning face forward her position was
one that gave her no chance to save
herself In tho fall. The rail was about
four teet from the floor.
She was 55 years of age, and weighed
ISO pounds. Her ase, weight and the
hi Ight of the fall combined to make
the accident n fatal one. She Is sur
vived by a family of seven, all of
whom exceut one married daughter,
reside in this city.

Mrs. Gertie May White Begins Pro
ceedings for Her Child.

row afternoon at 2 o'clock as the time

Mr. and Mrs. White are a young
couple and before their marriage Mrs.
White was the belle of Tompklnsville.
White wooed her ardently and won
her, but soon after the honeymoon
waned he thought he discovered that
ho mauled her not because he loved
he but ho wanted to show tho other
young chaps up there that ho could
take her from them.
Their married life has been very
unhappy, and after considerable bick
ering they serarated three months ago.
He took the child with him. Her
mother followed him to the house of
H E. Meade to take the child from
him, and he, It Is alleged, struck her
two or three blows with Ms fists which
litvo confined her to bed since. Tho
habeas corpus proceedings, Mr. Carey
said, will be followed by a libel In

SHE TOOK LAUDANUM.
Lottie White Tried to Kill Herself
at 324 Center Street She Had
Been Despondent.
Lottie White, of Center street, at
tempted suicide yesterday afternoon
with an ounce of laudanum. She was
attended to by a doctor soon after she
swallowed the poison, and consequent
ly Is alive. The Lackawanna hospital
ambulance was summoned. The, size
of the dose she took put a big task on
the doctors at the hospital to keep her
from going Into a sleep that would end
all.
The poison was drank about 5 o'clock.
It was taken In her room In 321 Center
street. Her vomiting created suspi
cion among the other women In the
house and this suspicion was Increased
because she has been despondent since
Monday about some news In a letter
she received. It was not her first at
tempt. Slnco she began her present
career the laudanum bottle was raised
to her lips twice before for the same
purpose, and in both instances she was
fortunate enough to have medical
tientment promptly.
At 7 o'clock in the evening she was
out of danger, but not at all over the
effect of the drug. It still needed the
constant watchfulness of a nurse to
prevent her from lapsing Into a slum
ber which would end In death, If she
were not roused.
The woman gave her name as Lottie
White when she came to the city not
very long ago. She took up her resi
dence at 16 .Lackawanna avenue for a
while, where she made the acquain
tance of Jack Bacon. This was four
months ago. Recently ehe changed her
address to the house In Center street.
She Is a handsome young woman, has
long dark hair and dark eyes. Her
features are regular, nnd her appear
ance and language suggest that she
came of a good family. Bacon Is a
year or two past twenty-one. This 13
the fiecond woman with whom he was
associated who has attempted to kill
herself with laudanum. The other was
Gertie Baker, who claimed to be his
wife. She took a big dose of it as she
was waiting for a train In the Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Westcin sta
tion. She was taken to the hospital
and the stomach pump waa used with
success.
The dose that Lottie took yesterday
was large enough to kill four persons.
Two teaspoonsful make a fatal dose.
There are eight of them In an ounce.
SILK MILL FOR PARSONS.
Scranton Men Are Furnishing
the
Capital for It.
"A deal was consummated yester
day," says the Wllkes-Barre Times,
"which will result In bringing a lace
silk industry to Parsons and be an ad
ditional boom for the valley. The new
industry will be a silk throwing mill,
where raw silk will be spun and pre
pared for use in finishing mills, such as
the one In South Wllkes-Barre and
the proposed silk ribbon mill at New
Empire. The new mill will bo located
adjoining the plot of North Patk, and
along the Delaware and Hudson rail
road at Parsons. The deed wrs deliv
ered yesterday and the new concern
posted a largo forfeit to build the mill
at once.
"The capital, strange to tay, comes
from Scranton, J. II. Gunster, a broth
er of Judge Gunster, of Scranton and
Mr. Watson, private secretary of
James Linen, president of the Scran
ton First National Bank, being laigo
stockholders. The building, to be put
up at once, will be of brick and will
cost about $10,000. Besides this, about
$18,000 will be put Into tho latent ma
chinery and In an electric plant with
which the mill Is to be equipped. It
will be complete In every particular."

FUNERAL OF LATE
PRIVATE PORTER
IMMENSE THRONG ATTENDED
THE SERVICES AT MOOSIC.
Wcro Conductod by
Rev. Richard
Santee, of the Brick
Methodist
Church, Assisted by Rev. Joseph
Madison, of Yatesville Detail
From His Company that Came
With the Remains from Camp Al
ger Acted as the Firing Squad.
Organizations Represented.
"Pity 'TIs- True." that death Is
bad enough but words cannot express
the sadness and impresslvcnes3 which
surround the death of a soldier and
very marked was thle yesterday at
the funeral services of the late Wal
ter Porter, of Company D, Thirteenth
regiment, which were held yesterday
afternoon nl the residence of his par
ents, Mr. and Mrs. Ira J. Porter, at
Mooslc.
There were no accomodations In the
residence for the Immense concourse
of relations and friends who assem
bled to do honor to the memory of the
deceased, and many were forced to
rcmcln outside. The services were In
charge of Rev. Rlchnrd Santee, of the
Brick Methodist church. He preached
a short but eloquent sermon from the
text, Psalms, vlll:10, ."When thou
shalt make his soul an offering for
sin .'"
The speaker's words were In part
as follows: "Tho text speaks of Jesus
giving his life as a; ransom for tho
world. He gave himself for all sin.
There Is a sense In which men also
give themselves for the putting away
of sins. The blessings we enjoy as a
nation we have because men like the
father of the deceased offered their
lives for our country In the time of
Its peril.
"The young men w ho have now gone
offered themselves for the deliverance
of the world from tyranny.
"Deep as Is tho rorrow of our hearts
at the loss of our loved ones, the time
Is yet coming when the world will
rejoice at the deliverance wrought by
the boys who are now giving their
lives In this war for the onpressed."
COULD NOT SEE REMAINS.
Deep as Is the sorrow of our hearts
Prayer was offered by Rev. Joseph
Madison, of Yatesville, and a double
quartette comprising Mr. and Mrs. II.
L. Edsell, Mrs. Nettle La Monte, the
Misses Musette Edsell, Jennie Wllger
and Martha Carey, and Walter Naylor
sang several selections. The floral of
ferings were profuse and very beauti
ful. No opportunity was given for the
friends to view the remains as they
had been shipped hero from Camp
Alger In an hermetically sealed metal
lic casket. This, though necessary,
added to the sadness of the services.
Just at the conclusion of the ser
vices, a heavy thunder shower fell
and delayed the cortege for nearly an
hour. When It slackened the remains
were taken to the Methodist cemetery
and Interred.
Great honor was here evidenced. The
cortege was led by a drum corps
comprising Edward Richards, Edward
Jonea, Fred Evans and Frank Molr,
of the old guard, and Bugler Charles
Thomas, of Company B, Thirteenth
regiment, P. V. Following came the de
tail sent from Camp Alger In charge
of the remains comprising Corporals
Lona Day, Thomas Russell, Jr., and
Privates W. P. Jennings, Charles War
ner, Henry Ives and Edmund Thomp
son, who acted as the firing squad.
Immediately after came a body of
the members of several companies of
the old Thirteenth and new National
Guard. Rifle Inspector Reese Watklns,

of the staff, Second Lieutenant W. C.
Scott and Privates E. R. Faulkner and
