Hardenburgh, of Honesdale, Hon ored by President James Arch bald's Advice Largely Influenced L. B. Stillwell to Take Up tho Study of Electricity Hospital Or derly Dougherty, "The Oracle." Captain Frank ltobllng will resume his position nt tho head of the imiIIco department today and there Is a strong probability that he will retnuln there for thr next three years at least. When Captain Holding Hist took up the duties of chief of police ho had scant knowl edge of the requirements of the posi tion, or what authorities with refer ence tu police work consider the best method of doing things. Hut lie pos sessed shrewd common sense and en ergy and soon had a linn grasp on the duties of his ollice. Ills success at the head of the police department was greater than even his wannest friends had hoped for. and leads to tho belief that much excellent work may bo ex pected from him in the future. Captnln .Molr, who will become mayor of the city on the first Monday In April, and Captain Holding have for years been fast friends. When Captain Molr was In command of Company C, of the Thirteenth regiment, Hobllng was ono of his lieutenants mid suc ceeded Captain Molr as commander "f the company. The strong bond of friendship between the men, coupled with the fact that Captnln Hobllng has .lust returned from the service of his country, are pointed to by those close to the mayor-elect as strong evi dence that he will remain at the head of his department during Mayor Molr's term of ollice, although they are mem bers of different political households. Raymond W. Hardenburgh, who was last week made a second lieutenant of the Fulled States regular army by President McKlnley, is a sou of Sena tor 13. II. Hardenburgh, of Honesdale, and one of the five young Pennsylvn nlaiis honored by the president with appointments under the provisions of the army reorganization bill. He Is a graduate of the Pennsylvania Military academy at Chester, and since his early youth has had a taste for military life. When the war broke out ho was a cor poral of Company K, of Honesdale. and entered the services of the United States In that capacity when the Thir teenth regiment became a member of I'ncle Rain's volunteer army. While the regiment was at Camp Al ger there was an urgent call for en gineers and young Hardenburgh, who longed for active service, was trans ferred to the Third regiment of United States Vc untcer Engineers, which was then bell g recruited. Mo was made sergeant major, and after the work of recruiting had been completed, was honored with a second lieutenant's commission, which Is now made a com mission of equal rank In the regular army. Lieutenant Hardenburgh Is lo cated at Pinar del Rio, Cuba, with his regiment. His letters from that place indicate that he likes the country and the service In which he is engaged. It was largely through tho advice of James Arehbnld. who Is at tho head of the engineering department of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western company, that L. H. Stillwell turned his attention to the study of electricity. Mr. Archbald had the keenness to per ceive the bent of the young man's mind and It Is due In some measure to his foresight that the world of elec trical research was given one of the brightest minds that Is today solving tho Innumerably knotty problems the practical application of electricity In volves. Mr. Stillwell. It will be remem bered, was last week selected as the head of tho electrical department of the Manhattan F.levated Hallway com pany, of New York. Ho prepared for college with one of Mr. Archbald's sons under the tutoring of I.. G. LaRar, then principal of the Scranton High school. Soon after en tering fhe employ of the AVestlnghous-c company at Pittsburg. Mr. Stillwell In vented, a light regulator which has been widely adopted and lias proved of great value. Since be became electrical di rector of the Cataract Power company at Niagara Falls ho devised the plan by which the power of the company Is carried along overhead wires n distance of twenty-one miles to the city of Ruf falo. It is also used for Illuminating Tonawanda and other towns In the vicinity of Ruffalo. Much of the colos sal work at Niagara power plant was done in conjunction with DcCourcey May, who is now associated with the Dickson Manufactuting company of this city. The Lackawanna hospital has an orderly who Is somewhat of a marvel. The doctors of tho hospital refer to him as "tho oracle." Ills name Is Richard Dougherty, and he has been night orderly at the hospital for several years. A mighty good one ho Is, too. Although Orderly Dougherty knows little about the theory of medicine and has only the fragmentary knowledge of anatomy his presence In tho operat ing rooms has given him, be seems to possess an Intuition that enables him to mako predictions that the lea-ned physicians could not deduce from their exact scientific knowledge. "How long do you think the patient will live?" said one of the hospital physicians one dny, as he observed tho orderly watching with deep Interest a man wnose case was Known to be hope less and who was patiently waltlns the final summons. "I don't think he can last longer than Thursday," replied tho orderly. It was then Tuesday. At 3 o'clock Thursday morning tho spirit of the suff.r"r passed to tho great beyond. When Gleason, tho burglar, who was Miot by Postmaster Hauser at Dela ware Water Gap. was brought to the hospital the surgeons realized at ence that ho was a grievously wounded man, but hoped his strong constitution lr.lght enable hlni to win bis way back to health. Tho orderly, however, felt that Gleason was a doomed man rnd con fided his fears to the Hm-ifons. Many similar Instance nmvo that Orderly Dougherty Is at least a shrewd guesser, and around the hospltul there Is u growing respect for the opinion of the quiet, unobtrusive little man who al ways seems to he Just wliero he Is needed and Is never Jn tho way.

William Harbor, of Wllke?-Rarre, cm ployed ns a machinist In this city, wan arrested hero last Friday on a war rant Issued by the far-fumed Squlro Donohuc, of Wllkcs-Harrc. Hnrber was charged with desertion and non-support by his wlfo who Is still residing In the above city. A constable took Uarber from this city to tho alderman for a hearing. The latter remarked upon Harber's ttyllsh clothing and asked why he did not alto wear diamonds. At tho hearing Mrs. Barber stated that her husband has not been near her or assisted licr and the children since January, 1SDS. The husband sim ply said "she never asked for any money." Ho was sent to jail for the nlslit and next morning agreed to give ten dollars toward the support of his family. As be was discharging him 'Sqtilra Donohue remaik'-d to tho prisoner" "It Is your duty to support your wife and chlldicn without being asked. You will have to quit being a dude and buy les1? fancy togs for yourself and buy more ham and eggs for your children. Mind If you don't send the $10 every month I'll bring you down from Scranton In less than two jeiks of u lamb's tall and make you pony up. Support yntir chil dren and all will bo well." WANTED TO LOSE HIM. Prisoner from Plains Was Smuggled Across the County Line and Railroaded Into the Lack- wanna County Jail. The practice of a certain class 'if storekeepers of bringing criminal pros ecutions against their Ignorant debtot-3 tb enforce settlements was carried to the limit by one Samuel Smolovlteii, of Miners Mills, it would appear from some developments of last Saturday. One John Columba, of Moffatt's Patch, In Plains township, owed Smolo vltch a good sized bill for groceries and the like. The storekeeper was unsuc cessful In his efforts to collect It and had a warrant sworn out for Columba's arrest before 'Squire Ross. One week ago Saturday, according to the story of Coltiniba's 18-ycar-oUI so;), Smolovlteh and two other men rrive out to Moffatt's patch at 12 o'clock at night, took his father out of bed, read a warrant to him and compelling him to get Into the wagon with them, drove away. On Monday the lad went to Wllkes Rarro and engaged Attorney James Shea to secure his father's rcleas.-. Mr. Shea secure a writ of habeas corpus returnable on Wednesday and notit'.eil the Luzerne prison authorities to have Columba In court on that day. ord was sent back that ther" was no such party at the Jail. Thinking there must be some mistake Mr. Shea, and the Columba lad visited the jail. They made a careful search of th dockets and also looked Into every cell occupied by foreigners, but there u:.s no Columba to be found. Three days passed and nothing could bo learned of the missing man's where abouts. Finally, when Smolovltz would not give the searchers any satisfaction, Mr. Shea had him arrested for abduc tion, the Columba boy being named as prosecutor. At the hearing Friday eve ning Smolovltz disclosed where Col umba was by remarking: "Oh, he's all light. He's living on broad and water in Scranton." Officers canio here and founl Col umba In the county jail awaltlnsr trial on a charge of larceny preferred by Jacob Nieuman. He was committed to jail March 12 by Alderman Millett, of tho Sixth ward. In default of $300 ball. Tho ball was furnished and Col umba taken back to Wllkes-Harre to testify against his abduction. It appears that Instead of taking Col umba before tho locnl 'Squire Smolo vltz and his confederates drove hi in ncross the line Into this county and then nrrested him on a warrant sworn out before Alderman Millett. Attorney Shea will prosecute the case to the end with a determination of punishing every offender connected with It In any way. m D. & H, R. R. Excursion to Scranton.

He Is the Sou of Mr. and Mrs. David P. Williams, of Tenth Street, and for Somo Time the Reason for His Disappearance from Home Was a Mystery Gang of Tramps Pound Him Very Useful to Them Was Taken Into Custody by Officers. Since word was recelvid in this city regarding tli-j whereabouts of the run away son of Mr. and Mrs. David F. Williams, of 433 Tenth street, which was mentioned exclusively In Saturday's Tribune, mora light has been shed on the boy's Whereabouts. The following from the Munch Chunk News gives an ivcount of the lad's doings and his as sociations: "Through the efforts of Chief of Po lice Isaacs, of liust Mnuch Chunk, flvj of the hardest looking bums in the profession are locked up in the Car bon county jail on a charge of vagran cy. The men weto all nrrested Satur day afternoon. Their arrest wns brought about by means of a small boy whom the tramps had In their com pany. "Their method of working the boy. who Is an Intelligent lad about 13 years of age, was by sending him out to beg. He did a thriving business. At somo houses his parents wore dead nnd would tin? lady kindly give him a few pennies to help hlni support his little sisters? At other places ho said his father was dead and his mother very HI. He also carried a small quuntlty of linen thread on spools .that he was selling. It has since been learned that the money lis gathered during the day was spent evenings for beer. Their living they begged. "Mr. Isaacs came across tho lad on North street, Fast Mauch Chunk, and by close questioning1 got the whole story from hlni. as to who he was, what he was doing and who he was doing It for. He told Mr. Isaacs where to Und the tramps. "One of the number, a man giving the name of John Webber, was waiting for tho boy In the vicinity of Heckhardt's shanty on River street. 'Squire Foster committed him to jail and soon after wards Mr. Isaacs apprehended another at the east end of the Fast Mauch Chunk bridge. He was committed by 'Squire Iieckhardt and gives the name of Amos Millard. . "A short tlmo later Mr. Isaacs and Policeman Douglas McLean captured two on Susquehanna street. They were conveyed to the jail without commit ment for the tlmo being: On Mr. Isaacs' return to Susquehanna street ho found No. ", a man who, the boy says, goes by the name of Rums, There Is only ono more at large. The boy says his name is 'Whitey.' After the tramps were all in Jail, Mr. Isaacs took the boy to his home, gave him supper and then handed him over to Sheriff Cres lln, who Is holding hlni. He Is cer tainly a genuine hobo and confesses to having a liking for tramp life." ANOTHER CAVE-IN. Roadway Along North Main Ave nuo Drops Into an Airway. Patrolman Rodham, while walking along North Main avnue about .1 o'clock Saturday morning, discovered that a portion of the avenue, a hun dred yards blow the Inteisection with Green Ridge street, had disappeared, making a large hole directly beneath the Scranton Hallway company's tracks. The hole Is about twenty-live feet long, ten feet wide and fifteen feet deep. Watchman A. W. Woodward, of tho Wesit Ridge Coal company, was notified and found that tho roof of tho return airway which runs ulong1 the company's slope had fallen In, causing the tave In the street. The airway Is onlv thirty feet below the surface. Mine Foreman Simpson Wharton, of the Coal com pany, rnd the otllclals of the Street Railway company were notified and danger signals were placed to prevent any person driving1 Into the hole. At daylight, the Railway company erected a trestle work and succeeded In Setting: their car service for points above In operation about 9.30 o'clock. Superintendent II. S. Klngsley, of the Coal company, had a gang of men put to work and the cave-In will be cleared away by tonight it Is expected. Tho colliery, meanwhile, will be Idle. City Engineer Phillips has notified Street Commissioner O Boyle to direct that stone arches be placed in tho airway and the slope, both of which run be neath tho avenue. This Is to prevent further caving In the roadway especial ly after the proposed power and paves are In position. Tho company's officials tlenipr somev hat to this proposition, saying that to put In arches now would take sometime and delay tralllc Inside and outside. This work they say could be done later, Just as well. A CHANCE EOR INVESTORS. Set Forth in the Prospectus of the Bunsen-Rumford Company.

Larger engines and la'rcer hauls la the epitome of tho new president's Idea in this legard. At present tho Dela ware, Lackawanna and Western en gines aro of ordinary size, carrying a pressure of one hundred and llfty pounds to the squnre Inch. No more of these engines are to be built. All tho present models are to be discarded nnd every new engine will be the larg est type, being capable of carrying a pressure of two hundred pounds. Without waiting for the new engines to supplant the present one. larger runs for engines will be put In vogue. At present engines are relayed about five hours on first-class trains and about every eight hours on second and third-class trains. Scranton and Washington are the re lay points on the innln line nt present. Puder the new system there w 111 be no relays between Scranton and Hoboken. What will constitute a continuous run north of Scranton has not yet been re ported. These longer hauls will, of couis-o, mean fewer engines and less engineers and firemen. As may be believed, there Is no end of worry among' the present crews as to whom the cutting down will affect. LYCEUM MEETING. Storm Prevented n Largo Attendance Yesterday Afternoon.
