ANOTHER STRIKE OF SHIVERS
AT WEST RIDQE COLLIERY.
They Allege They Hnvo Not Been
Paid the Amount Agreed Upon.
A Meek Young Man Succeeded in
Defrauding Mrs. Martin Apple
man Two Suspicious Characters
Are Arrested by Lieutenant Spell
man Boy Injured by the Running
Away of a Horse Flag Raising
This Evening.
Another strike occurred yesterday at
tho West Kldge colliery, dup to the
refusal of the drivers employed In the
mines to resume work on r. reduction
In wages. On Saturday Inst they re
ceived their month's salary, and stated
that tho scale on which they agreed to
go back to their work w.i not fulfilled
and yesterday they deemed It advis
able, under tho circumstances to cease
work, which caused a suspension of
operations at the colliery.
If the drivers do not report for duty
this morning they will be Immediately
paid In full and receive their dis
charge. A MEEK YOUNG. MAN.
A meek looking young man with a
glib tongue succeeded In winning tho
confidence of several North End peo
ple yesterday. He worked his ruse In
the Dutch Gap section and used tho
name of James Diown veil known by
the entire community. His scheme was
the presentation of a check purported
to be inudi out to him with Mr.
Drown'e naiio as the one who gave
the check.
He succeeded in winning the confi
dence of Mrs. Martin Appleman and
secured a small amount. He gave the
name of Henry Wllkeson, and was
nbout lx feet In heighth. The police
were notified and are on his track.
SUSPICIOUS CHARACTERS.
Lieutenant Michael Spellman nnd
Roy Brink captured two suspicious
chnracteis at Tripp's crossing last
evening. The nrreot was accompanied
by many dangers, and had not the
lieutenant used a little strategy and
nerve he would undoubtedly have
fared badly.
When searched Immediately after
their arrest, three ugly looking revolv
ers of the Hull Dog type and all cham
bers loaded, also several knives were
found In the pockets of the men, which
leads to the belief that they must have
despoiled a harduaie store. They gave
their names ns Charles Rice, of Lin
coln, Nebraska, nnd Thomas Burns.
TWO ACCIDENTS.
The 6-year-old son of Mr. Horace
Twining, of North Main avenue, nar
rowly escaped serious Injury as the
result of a runaway recently. Tho lad
was overly anxious to procure a ride.
He made a regucst to n, passing fatnr
er, which was granted. During the
rounds the farmer had occasion to step
Into a house. While absent the ani
mal became frightened and dashed
away.
The boy was thrown out and re-

LIVE NEWS OF
WEST SCRANTON
WORK OF REBUILDING OXFORD
WASHERY IS IN PROGRESS.
Removal of the Big Culm Heap
Makes It Possible to Open Up Sev
eral Streets Some Ancient History
About Gammon's Hill Officers
Elected by the St. Paul's Pioneer
Corps Funeral of tho Late Thomas
W. Phillips Will Tako Place This
Afternoon Other Matters.
Before many months have passed tho
now Oxford wnshery will be In oper
ation. Already a large foico of car
penters under Thomas B. Cm oy nnd
Foreman Benson Davles die busy
framing tho big timbers. The work Is
carried on In the vacant plot where
the old culm dump stood before Its re
irnval by the oprntlons of tho llrst
washery, which was destroyed several
months ago by fire.
The second washery will not be as
large as tho one destroyed, but will
bo fully as complete In all the appli
ances of an up-to-date plant. It will
be erected an close as possible to the
point where the former oneiatlons of
culm removal ceased. This will bo
done to avoid a great length of con-"
veyor conduits.
The spot chosen lies to tho right of
the proposed extension of Oxford street
to Meridian, and about 300 yards from
the present terminus of Oxford street
at the Intersection of Ninth street.
Immediately beneath the structure a
bore hole will be made going a depth
of 309 feet and cutting the Clark vein
workings. Into this bore hole will be
piped nil tho slush refuse from the
riant, being washed in by a powerful
stream of water.
A double benefit Is thus gained,
valueless refuse of an unsightly nature
Is disposed of and a wide expanse of
ground redeemed. Also the under
ground passages of the mine becomes
solidly filled, thus preventing the sink
ing of the strata and consequent sur
face dnmages. It will not take very
long to remove the culm lying on the
loft of Luzerne street, and nearest to
the washery. Little of it Is of a mar
ketable value for nny purpose and It Is
very probable that this "little" will bo
used in the boilers at the Oxfoid.
As to the smaller "dump" across
Lucerne street on the right hand side
nothing definite has been arranged,
though ultimately It also will be re
movtd. There Is still less of market
able material in this pile, ns for some
time only "bony" and "dust" have
been dumped on It. It Is figured that
in the course of three years all that
was once an Oxford culm pile will
have been entirely removed. This con
clusion Is based on the method of op
erating tho other washery. About 20
men and boys will be employed in and
about the plant.
Two questions naturally arise in con
nection with the removal of this culm.
The first, will the extension of Oxford
street to Meridian ever be accomplish
ed? There is nbout 1,000 feet of com
pany land and 150 feet of the property
facing on Meridian street and owned
by Mathew Dale which must be secur
ed to do this. If the company will
transfer the necessary right of way
and Mr. Dale will sell for a reasonable
price, Oxford street may yet run
throush.
As It Is, no one knows what the Del
aware, Lackawanna and Western
company will do nnd It Is snld Mr.
Dale wants $i,000 for his property upon
which a house nnd barn now stand.
That the proposed street extension
would be a much travelled thorough
fare Is "Indicated by the fact that ever
since tho culm was removed, and un
til Mr. Dale prohibited trespass acros3
his lot, many have gone that way.
In connection with street extension,
it might be suggested thnt Ninth street
could now he extended from Its pres
ent terminus at Oxford right across to
where the narrow roadway running
along Ansley's planing mill to Meridian
street, now ends. Tho distance Is
about 1.S00 feet and a direct thorough
fare from Scranton street to Luzerne
street would thus be obtained. The
Scranton street hill would be avoid
ed by that route for approach to lower
West Scranton.
The second question Is what will the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
company do with the large area of
vacant land obtained? It would make
an admirable site for car repair shops
ard sidings and It is barely possible
that that is its probable destiny.

FUNERAL OF MISS PHILLIPS.
In silent but evident sympathy with
the family and out of respect to the
memory of the beloved youn? woman,
a large concourse of friends attended
the funeral services of the late Mies
Rosa Phillips, which were held yester
day afternoon ut the Scranton Street
Baptist church.
The remulns were borne to the church

the words recorded by John In Reve
lations, xl:8: "And I looked nnd be
hold, a pale horse, nnd his name, that
Bat on him, was death."
Tho speaker spoke of the Idea that
Death was n living Intelligence, though
only controlled by Jesus Christ. That
Death only came when Christ judged
that It was the opportune time to take
his children home. To his beloved, this
dread messenger came as a welcome
one. No dlscrlmnatlon was shown,
high and low alike received the mes
senger and his summons was Irrevoca
ble. But, the same means would unite
friends here with those who had gone
before.
The pastor also paid a loving tribute
to the memory of her, who had been a
beacon light to all with whom she had
come In contact. The church would
surely miss her. Tho church choir, In
charge of Mrs. B. O. Beddoe, sang the
selections. At the conclusion of the
services, friends looked uunn the face
of the deceased for the Inst time, ns
she lay In tho calm of sweet repose,
her casket almost concealed beneath
tho wealth of floral tributes.
The remains, followed by a large cor
tege, wero borne to the Washburn

Mlsss Carrie Phillips, Bessie Daniels,
Ruth Beddoe. Helen Fowler, Edna
Lang, Edna Taguc, Mamie Dot an and

ANIMAL INFLICTS INJURY.
George Carpenter, of Hampton street,
was severely bitten on the lower part
of the right leg early last evening by
a large setter dog. The animal seized
him as he was passing along Eynon
street. No cause other than pure vlc
lousncss seemed to govern the animal'
uction. Mr. Carpenter chased and
caught the canine, while a friend ran
and notified Patrolman McColllgan.
Before the patrolman could reach
him, however, the dog broke away and
escaped. Not without again biting Mr.
Carpenter on the hand. The nnlmal
belongs to a man named Bowen, and
if possible will be shot.

The prospects of having a company
