Tho letter Is as fol lows: lacknwnnna Co. Jail, Scranton, Pa March, 26th, 1899. To Tho Hon. Board of Commissioners. Gentlem: I am Incarcerated In the Lackawanna County, Jail or the iast two months for tho statutory burglary of V and IS cents. Oentlem. It Is my first offence, and, It will be my last. I huvc never heretofore done anything detrimental to my character. And would not hnvo been In my present predicament but for drink. Drink. Which 1ms n tendency to drive any man to that Imbecility which presages extermination I have a poor widowed mother entirely dependent on me for sustenance. I run truly say that not a day pusses (perhaps. 1 might with equal veracity say un hour) In which I do not think of mother. Hut its ex traordinary how I was so foolish as to precipitate myself Into my present en tanglement. I have nlwnys lived a good and unimpeachable life so far, and have never committed any net of the sllchtest nature derogatory to my character. My confinement in u prison cell for the past three months, Includ ing. The time I was waiting for Court, Has, entirely put me In a weak and dilapidated condition, especially, as I hnvn't got no recreation since my term of imprisonment 1 have a sltuulion waiting for me until next Wednesday. And If I am not liberated then. I shall In nil probability have lost It. I havn't a dollar to my name Neither has my poor mother.I am therefore ap pealing to your Honorable Hody to lib erate me, us, I am not able to pay the costs of the prosectutlon. My term of Imprisonment expires on thu 29th Inst. And if your Honorable Hody, leaves me stay in Jail for the costs. It will bring my mothers gruy hulls down with sorrow to nn early grave. I am her only Joy and comfort, to cherish her declining years. 1 am therefore! asking your Honorable Hody to forgive me the costs and liberate me I am begging the favor In gods name, God, who In his lust moments on the cross on Mount Calvary forgave his enemies, When his blood ran down In great drops to ground. Ko also, I ask your Honourable Body In Gods name and for Gods sake to forgive me and lib erate mo from n felons cell. And in conclusion 1 will mention That. If your Honourable Hody discharges me. I Shall turn over a new leuf, for in deed, I have enough of prison life and dlclpline. I therefore promise your Honourable Body. That if liberated. I Shall never bother this court ugnin. Hut try and lie a valuable acquisition to my poor Mother the remainder of her time on this earth. And equally so try nnd da right with god and man through my future welfare, LAKE AIUEL.

It was written while he wus sick with the fever at Suntlogo and was dated a few days be fore his dputh. It ends abruptly and Is not signed, evidently not having been finished. His tentniate, It Is presumed, found It after his death and forwarded it. In the letter he speaks of his serious condition and expresses the hope that he will live until August 3, when he would be a full year In the urmy. Ho died August ). Another evidence that he leulized death was approaching was furnished by a letter received by Mrs. Pease fiom a lady In Tampa, Fla. When the sol diers were In Tampa, this ladv met Private Pease and gave him a bible. He promised to send It back to her as a souvenir when the war was over. During the month of August this lady received her bible- back.

WAS A LIVELY RUNAWAY. Cusick's Undertaking Van Makes Good Time on Linden Street. Cusick's large white team, attached to the undertaking van, ran away yes terday afternoon causing a big com motion. In coming out of tho barn on Penn avenue the horses narrowly escaped being run down by a trolley car and were in consequence much nettled. They were driven to the corner of Mul berry street and Franklin avenue nmi left standing without being tied, while tne unver was loading up some chairs. Something started tho already badly frightened animals nnd they dashed down Franklin avenue ond up Linden street nt a breakneck men Timv ex ceeded In avoiding a collision until Wy oming nvenuo was passed. Contractor Michael Ruddy was driving in a single carriage between AVas'nlngton and Wyoming avenue towards the on-coming runaways. He turned aside to escape them, but they bore directly down upon him.

The runaways kept on up Linden street, scattering pedestrians right and left nt the crosswalks nnd causing drivers to turn in at slrtestreets cr pull up hurriedly to the curb. Dozens of men tried to etop the run aways all along the lino, but It was not until Monroe avenue was reached that a successful attempt was untie. A young man, who modestly refused to divulge his name, cnught the nigh horse by tho bridle nnd running along with them, turned them Into Monroe avenue and dually stopped them. No damage resulted to the runaways or the van. CHANGE IN SECRETARIES. Mr. Pent sail Departs and Mr. Adair, His Successor, Arrives. Mrs. und Mrs. F. W.

Men Who Bobbed the Carbondale Power Station Believed to Have Been in the Vicinity of Sus quehanna Arrests Here. Nothing positive was accomplished yesterday In the way ot Identifying the burglars who visited the power station nt Caibondalc last Sunday night. The following is from the Sus quehanna Transcript: Wo are Informed by a citizen nf Sus quehanna that the gang of itinerant burg lars who operated at Carbondale, three of whom were shot tit Ararat, had for a long time previous to the robbery nvidu their headquarters off and on in and around Crtnavan's Island, this place. Last Sunday nfternocn, between 4 and 5 o'clock, tho gang took passage on a Jefferson divlsloi coal train and landed In Carbondale In time for the robbery which occurred eary Monday morning. The names of the gang nnd their "par ticular business" were enshrouded In mys tery. However, It Is said that they would disappear niybterlously at intervals and return plentifully supplied with good clothes and pocket money. Tho Mime gang Is undoubtedly guilty of the Maloney robbery. A local bum by the name of Burke, who is listed in tho police archives as a member of the old Dellevue "Growl er gang" is being held at headquarters ay a suspect. He went to Dr. J. J. Walker, of Dellevue, yesterday to be treated for wounds on his left hand and left leg. The wounds looked as If they could have been made by bird shot and thinking he might bo the member of the Shannon gang that Sta tion Agent Rroad believes ho peppered, the doctor called In the police and had him arrested. P,u"ke claims that the wounds ar-3 burns and that he received them by rolling against a boiler at the Diamond mine, while sleeping in the boiler room about two weeks ago. The wounds are on the knuckles of the left hand and the side of the left leg below tho knee. Tho police are Inclined to believe Burke's story. The prisoner bears old scars of u knife wound and bullet wound. Another man who called to see Burke was held as a suspect. He peddles pen tils nnd needles from house to hous.j and Is known to be n pal of Burke. Ho Is held on tho charge of peddling with out a license. Chief Robllng yesterday received a ciicular from New Brighton, Beaver county, offeiing $100 reward for Infor mation of a gang of five or six men who robbed the Beaver Valley Traction company's station at that place last Sunday night. It Is a remarkable co incidence that the operations of the gang in this case were exactly similar to those of the gang that robbed the Mayfleld station on the sumo night. They overpowered the workmen and were shot at by the night clerk. He, too, was overpowered and his levolver taken away from him. Unfortunately there was no "Bill" Leach in that neighborhood. Detective John Molr Interviewed Zeby and Leonard at the county jail yesterday but couldn't get anything out of them. - m Coffee Economy.

Attended a Meeting of the Local Union Last Night and Gavo His Official Sanction to the Proceed ings Thus Far Communication from the Master Carpenters' Union Not Fully Accepted as Being Official Expect Matters Will Bo Amicably Adjusted by June 1. Nearly ull of the t00 members of Local union, No. EG3, of tho United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners were present at their regular meeting In Carpenter's hall, Wyoming avenue, last night, to discuss the enforcement of the new rules, prescribing an eight hour dny at the rate of thirty cents an hour and viiiIoUh other less Important Innovations. John N. Williams, of Utlcn, N. Y national president of the brotherhood, was In attendance ut the meeting and gave his approval to what had been done so far in carrying on the move ment. The communication, purporting to come from the Master Carpenters as sociation, refusing to acquiesce in the now rules Mas rend and discussed. There was a disposition to Ignore It lo 'ausc It was not signed by any mem ber of the association, but simply by "The Master Carpenters' Association of the Builders' Kxchange." The meeting was U session uutll It o'clock. When It was over the press committee gave It out that "The union Instructed Its committee- to continue In Its work to secure the eight-hour day." The new rules are not scheduled to go In effect until June 1. In tho Inter vening two months It is very likely that matters will be so adjusted us to obviate any extreme measures. The carpenters, however, are determined upon making this an eight-hour city. Their business agent, John M. Know! ton, said yesterday: "The carpenters' unions In this cltv have a membership of GOO, and are tracked up In their de mands for nn eight-hour day by all tho unions alllllatcd with the building trades, if the demands of the carpen ters are not acceded to the conse quences will bo far reaching." The carpenters' committee believes that no small percentage of the master carpenters are willing to grant the brotherhood's request und that in due time these fair-minded ones will pre vail. President Williams will return to Utlca today. S'SOVE WORKS CHANGES. Foreman Resigns and an Increase of Ten Per Cent, in Wnges Ordered.
