HER POINT OF VIEW.
I am not a bit superstitious," re
marked a lady the other day who Is
iceosrnlzcd among her acquaintances as
a person possessing uncommon sense
and strong practicality. "Neither am
1." "Nor I." "Nor 1," chanted tho
chorus made up of others more or lers
strong as to mind and purpose, though
not given to violent yearnings after the
ballot.
After this brief Interruption the
speaker continued: "1 am not a bit
superstitious, but I've recently uctcd
upon monumentally superstitious prin
ciples." The others all listened with
interest.
"Years ago," she went on, "I, among
n number of other girls, had my fortune
told by a gipsy. It was during tho war,
and the old party, after consulting a
remarkably grubby pack of cards, made
the announcement that I should marry
a soldier. Now, this was not nn as
tonishing prediction, since there wasn't
a man left outside the service whom a
girl would bo willing to marry, and I
explained the fact to tho old woman
She continued in an Ill-tempered fash
Ion to foretell my future, disclosing the
Information that 1 should some day
have two houses and that If the newer
ono should bo built of brick, my hus
band would Immediately die after Its
erection.
"As I say, this was long ago and I
had forgotten tho prophecy until late
ly, since we started to build. My hus
band was possessed to use brick in tho
construction of our new home, but sud
denly tho old crone's warning came to
my mind after tho lapse of years. "No.
we don't,' said I, with decision. 'You
may think I'd make an Interesting
widow with a big brick house as u
setting, but we'll have It stone and
head off that gipsy's prediction.'
"That accounts for the chuugo In our
plans, I suppose you wouldn't have
been so silly," she added as she looked
around the croup of Interested listen
er?. "I wouldn't have brick, either," slow
ly remarked ono after another of the
non-superstitious friends, after a
thoughtful pause.

BOYS SKULL FRACTURED.
Andrew Heen Sustained a Terrible
Fall While Playing in New No.
3 School Building on Pitts
ton Avenue.
Andrew Heen, the seven-year-old son
of Andrew Heen, of 6:'4 Klrst court.
South Scranton, Is at the Lackawanna
hospital suffering from a double frac
ture of the skull and dislocation ot
the right collar bone. IJu was In
jured ot 5.30 o'clock last evening ttt
the now No. 3 public school building
now In the course of construction at
tlie corner of Pittston avenue and
Hickory street.
The scene of the accident has been,
since tho excavation for tho founda
tion, the playground of hundreds of
boys from the South Side and not
withstanding that every available ef
fort has been made to keep boys from
about the building the youngsters have
found a way to elude being caught.
Yesterday afternoon when tho classes
were dismissed from No. " school on
River street a number of bovs, Heen
among the number, waited until the
carpenters went home. As the last
man passed out of sight a rush was
made into tho structure, which Is
now in a comparatively skeleton shape,
nothing being erectea tin the founda
tion but the framework. Young Heen
climbed tho top, two stoiles high, and
while running across the Joists ho miss
ed his footing nnd was precipitated to
tho cellar. Tho boy landed on his head
and shoulders Into a pile of stone.
When picked up he was unconscious
and was hastily taken to his home.
Dr. Kolb, who had learned of the
accident, hurried to the Heen home,
arriving there as the Injured boy was
being taken Into tho house. Fpon
examination he found tho Injuries to
be as above noted. Some one tele
phoned to the Lackawanna hospital
from the Century hose house at the
time of the accident and when the am
bulance leached the scene, and later
went to tho Heen'.s house, Dr. Kolb
advised tho parents to have their son
taken to that Institution nnd accord
ingly tho boy was removed.
At midnight ho was yet unconscious
and not the slightest Indications were
apparent that would give any hope
for his recovery. Dr. Corset- stated
that It Is not probable that the boy
would live three days.
ASPHALT REPAIR QUESTION.
Comes Up in Councils Tonight for
Consideration.
The asphalt repair question will oc
cupy the attention nf councils tonight.
Each brunch will meet, the select In
adjourned and the common council in
regular session.
In common council Mr. Keller's ordi
nance wilt bo reported from committee.
Opposed to it will appear the Roche
measure which on account of its bond
feature was Improperly Introduced In
the upper branch. This ordlnanace.
revised by tho city solicitor will bo In
troduced. With It will bo tho Joint
opinion of tho city solicitor and Wil
lard, Warren and Knapp, that it Is
11 legal measure. Ovpr a choice be
tween the Roche nnd the Keller plans
there seems bound to be a controver
sy. Tho Keller people will probably aim
to send the Roche ordinance and Us ac
companying opinion back to the upper
brunch. They claim that tho finance
figures on which tho opinion was based
are wrong and that tho opinion Is,
consequently, In error, They say the
city has really reached Its limited In
debtedeness and that further bonds
cannot be Issued without the consent
of tho ilectora. Further, they allege,
there Is no question as to tho legality
of the Keller ordinance.

Tho house was packed with sport-loving
people ho had become Interested
through Rocber's failure to throw Mo
Ice Tuesday night and his loss of $M
thereby.
Mcttcc Is better known as "Atlas," of
Hoston. Under that name he has given
champions and aspiring champions lots
of trouble and has won much of th
hitters' money during tho past few
years. He knows every trick in tho
wrestling trade, Is n man of prodigious
strength und. while not claiming tho
ability to throw the champion, has
rlrlted his money on the proposition
that Rocber could not throw him. Put
ho made a mistake In not barring th
strangle hold for last night's match.
Ry the use of it Rocber choked McGee
until he was blue In the fnce and had
his two shoulders on tho mat after
21 mlnutps nnd 20 seconds from the call
of time.
RnFIRKP. SELECTED
Thet 1' was no repetition of Tuesday
night's delay In selecting a referee.
T1k principals knew that In the audi
ence was "Wily" Roche, of New YotU
city, manager of "Mysterious Hilly"
Smith, who Is to box Jim Judge In this
t ity nest Monday night. They ngreed
upon him .ind be was called to thf
stage. According to the articles sign
ed at the Westminster hotel Tuesday
night no holds were barred and Hying
and rolling falls oft tho mat were
not to count. Only pin falls were to
count nnd It was agreed on the stage
that throe seconds down must elapse
to constitute a tall.
At the call or time the men fiddled
for .v hold for the space of a minute.
McGee finally went down nnd for four
or ih-e minutes prevented Roeber from
finding a hold. McGee finally wrig
gled off th- mat and nftcr n brief de
lay work was resumed. McGee again
chose the defensive and after slipping
out of a hnlf-Nelson secured a body
hold on Roeber from tho rear. The
champion was occupied nearly two
minutes in breaking It.
MeGee had been angered by an elbow
blow In the fnco and rushed Roeber
oft th niut and against the arch at
the left of the stage. McGee's temper
wa? no better when they were colled
to the center. He rushed the cham
pion again, this time to the rear ot the
stage and under the curtain. After re
turning to tho mat McGee quickly
sought a prostrate position. Ho broke
a sacond and then a third-half Nelson
nnd finally a half-strangle hold.
GOT THF STRANGLE HOLD.
Roeber worked bis left arm into an
opening and twisted McGee almost
upon his back. Rocber got one arm
free and secured a full stomach hold.
Roeber was In a sitting position with
McGee's back upon his left knee. Tho
champion's muscles began to contract
and McGee's eyes to protrude. Tho
latter'o face grew darker as Roeber
continued to strangle and to force bis
opponent's head downward to the floor.
The head finally dropped from Roeber's
kne but with a last grand burst of
strength he kept his shoulders above
the canvas. The strain, however, was
more than he couid stand. Gradually
his shoulders sank and at last settled
squarely on tlie mat.
Referee Roche waited the full three
seconds and gave his decision to Roe
ber after 21 minutes and 20 seconds nf
wrestling. During the progress of tho
bout the audience was wild with en
thusiasm. The sympathy was with the
beaten man. At the conclusion of tho
match, Skel'y in McGee's behalf chal
lenged Roeber to wrestle for $250 a
sld ot Music hall next Monday night
f s a curtain raiser to tho Smith-Judge
boxing contest. Roeber was forced to
decline as the bookings for his com
pany Interfeied with such an arrange
ment. BILLY ROCHE HAD MONEY.
He Came to Scranton to Make Poor
Use of It.
"Wily" Roche, of New York city,
manager for "Mysterious Wily" Smith,
came to Scranton yesterday In the in
terest of the latter. Roche said ho was
satisfied with all the arrangements
made by the American Sporting club
for the contest between Smith and Jim
Judge next Monday night. He s.ald the
bout had aroused much Interest In New
York, where sporting men were won
dering what kind of a Scranton world
beater was so anxious to go against
the champion.
Tho New York manager spent much
of his time while hero In looking for
Judge money. Most of It offered to
him was at unsatlsfactoiy odds. He
said that never In the recent history of
tho ring had odds as long as 3 to 1

been offered on a favorite nnd he was
not disposed to break the Ice. It was
his opinion that while stacks of Judge
money abounded, the owners were
standing off for better odds than can
now be obtained.
Scranton sports were gleeful over the
disposition of Smith's manager to hold
his money for more generous odds.
They argued that his caution was nn
evidence that he believed the mysteri
ous William was to come In contact
with a proposition dlfllcult to solve.
Roche will return to Scranton Saturday
or Sunday with his champion. He will
probably be given. 11 chance to dis
tribute his wealth before tho gong
sounds on Monday night.
Word comes from Judge's training
quarters near Carbondale that the
Scranton boy Is In the best ot trim and
nearly at weight. Roche Is non-committal
about Smith. The former says
little except that Smith will enter the
ropes a champion and will finish tho
bout under the same title. Roche re
turned to New York early this morn
ing. EXPRESSMAN ARRESTED.
