To make a perfect setting brighter, tho afternoon wns comfortably watm and no marring accidents occurred to ln terfeie. Wednesday afternoon and evening the preparations were peifccted and the visiting lire companies wcie re ceived and made comfortable by their Intended hosts. At 7 p. m a parade was held In tills the Plttston lire companies took part and with them were the AlcQuolds, of Middletuwn, the West Plttston eompaliy, nnd the nttached and unattached wheelmen. Flievvoiks were set oft and Illuminated signs adorned the lino of mulch. Daily jesteiday morning the final details wete arratiRed for tho day's event. The hour set for the movItiR of the ninicheis was 2 p. in., but not until a half bout later did they start. Then the blowlnR of the general alnim announced the Initial movement. Not since the Plttston soldier boys march ed away or marched home has such a wildly enthusiastic tiovwl congre gated on Main uvenuc ns did yester day. Business of every sort wns aban doned for the tlino being. LIND OF MAUCII.

To cite individual Instances of events that occurred along the Hue and dur ing the li.u ade, would be Impossible. Sufllcp it to s,i.v that it wns one giand ovation fiom the ndmlilug thousands, easily evoked by the geneial up-to-date appearance of the whole department. The visiting llretnen fiom Allddletovvn, N.

SDCOND DIVISION Leading the second division was the Albion band, who headed the Aoca hose comiinj, No. 1. These "boj-s" made a decided hit all around nnd especially with their Japanese Isun shades.

Theie is liable to be a clash between the supply committee of tho boaid of tontiol nnd the special commltteo re cently appointed to Investigate the question of coal supplj. At last night's meeting of the supply committee It was decided to lecnm mend at the meeting ot the board Oct. 10 that coal be delivered at the school buildings between the hours of 8.30 a m. and 3.30 p. in., duilng which time the principals would be In the buildings and ablo to tecelpt for dellveiies. As the action token by the supply committee is one of the points being conslllcied by the special Investigation committee, now tardy In Its leport, It Is Inferred that the latter will tuke ex ception to having some of its thunder stolen.

Benedict, of Green Grove, the Driver, Was Arrested nnd Sent to Jail Without Bail John Harrison, Ten vTcirs Old, the Stepson of H. A. Altlmus, of Vou Storch Avenue, Was the Victim He Was on His Wny Homo fiom School When Ho Mot Doath. John Hntilson. n Gieen Hldge boy, was run over bv a wagon yesterday afternoon and killed. The driver, A. II. Benedict, of Gieen Otove, wus In toxicated. He was arrested by citizens and committed to Jail bj Alderman Bnllcj', of the Thirteenth wind Haitlsou was 11 yeuis old and a step son of H. A. Altlmus, proprietor of tho Junction hotel, 1507 Von Storch avenue, nenrstho Delawaie und Hudson depot. Benedict Is employed In tho geneial stoic of his father at Gieen Grove. Al though ery drunk, ho wns driving when the boj was lun down. B diet's father was also In the wa Bene- agon. The father was sober. The fatality occurred In Lchr's allej', near the Junction of the Dickson City boulevaid and Dast AInrket street. No. 27 school had just been dismissed and scores of chlldten were In the vicinity. Young Harrison and n party of other boys were trooping along homeward when tho wagon bore down upon them at u rapid rate. HF.DLING IN HIS SDAT. Benedict was icellng In his seat, and In nnswer to the Jeeis of u group of hoys flicked his horses with the whip and urged them faster along. Harri son and his companion were In the path of the wagon. They scattered as It approached. The Harrison boy was late In hearing the nlaim. His hesi tation of a moment was fatal. Defoie he had time to escape the wagon pole struck him In the back of the neck und he fell. Benedict continued on his way, but was halted a short distance from the spot by Charles Williams and another citizen. They saw that the hoy was unconscious and detained Benedict. The limp and senseless form of the little fellow was carried Into Thomp son's drug stole, on Dast AInrket stieet, whete he died befoie a physic ian could i each him. Such Indignation was felt against Benedict that his life might not have been worth much If thcie hnd been any delaj In taking him to Alderman Bailey's office Attet hearing the story of the occuirenee, the alderman com mitted the joungei Benedict to Jail without ball The fnther was released. The wagon In which the Benedicts lode was a large one of the store de llverj' type It was loaded with goods which the elder Benedict had bought In Scranton for his Green Grove store. Notification was sent to Coroner Longstreet'.s office, but he was not In tho city, t'nelertnker Jones then took charge of the bodj-. It Is believed that tho Immediate cause of death was con cussion of the hi aln The coroner will Investigate the case todaj. BDNDDICT TALKS. Benedict reached the county Jail at " o'clock, about two houis after the accident occulted He was about sober but showed unmistakable signs that he had been drinking. His appearance, however, was in his favor and Indi cated that, fully sober, he might be a verj decent kind of a fellow. He re alized how seilous was his position. He said the boy fell while trying to catch a ride on the wagon. After making this statement he lefused to talk. LECTURE ON MUSICAL HISTOKY First in a Series Delivered by Mrs. J. Alfred Pennington.
