REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS.
Hunt Resldenco and Elm Park Tri
angle Change Hands.
A real estate deal of considerable
Importance was recently concluded by
which Frank M. Vanillins becume the
owner of the beautiful homo built and
occupied by A. IS. Hunt, at the corner
of .Ipfforson avenue nnd 1'lno street.
The house Is one of the most nt
ttactlve In the city and has been built
but a few years. Mr. Vandllns pro
poses to make a number of changes
In the property and will probably tako
possession about the first of the year.
The consideration for this Una prop
erty Is not made public, but It Is sup
posed to be somewhere In the neigh
hot hood of t:."i,000. It Is understood
that Mr. Hunt Intends continuing In
his own name the business conducted
for some years as the Arm of Hunt &
Council.
Another real estate affair which will
Interest a largo number of people Is
the acquisition of the triangle adjoin
ing Elm Park church by Messrs. Char
les Schlager, John T. Porter, C. D.
Jones and O. P. Reynolds.
That particular spot of ground,
though not large, has been the sourco
of much concern to many residents
outside the congregation of Elm Park
church, who'have feared that tho beau
tiful property would be marred by
some unsightly building If the church
did not secure possession of It.
In fact, plans were drawn by one
set of owners to build a caravnnsory
llke tenement house close up to the
rear of the church. For some reason
the arrangements were not completed
and now all suspense will be at end,
as the property Is In hands of mem
bers of that congregation.
It Is not yet made public ns to
whether the church will purchase tho
land, which would make such nn at
tractive addition to that fine site.
There was a time but a few years ago
when It could have been bought for
$8,000, and not a few members of the
ofllolal board regret that such a step
was not then taken. The recent own
ers, Dr. J.. M. Gates and J. W. Brown
ing, paid $10,000 for the small bit of
land nnd It Is understood have made
but little on Its sale.
CAUSE OF THE DROUGHT.
Weathermen Clarke, of Blnghamton,
and Paine of This City Inter
viewed on the Dry Spell.
The long-continued drought and the
particularly dense fogs which have
visited this city and valley within the
last few years are becoming topics of
general conversation and great con
cern Is being manifested as to the
probable duration of the former.
united states weather Observer v.
II. Clarke, who Is stationed In Ulng
hamton, was In the city yesterday at
the request of Willis Moore, chief of
the ' weather bureau, and consulted
with Secretary D. B. Atherton, of tho
board of trade, In regard to the fur
nishing of weather maps and reports
to those In this city who may desire
them.
In speaking of the drought Mr.
Clarke said that It was general
throughout the entire country and
that In this particular vicinity there
Is no hope lor any relief In the shape
of a heavy rainstorm for tho present,
at least. He said the absence of rain
was caused by the deflection of storms
originating In the northwest at the
great lakes. These storms generally
come east, but for some unknown rea
son they have stopped at the Great
lakes for some time past. Mr. Clarke
said that a fog coming on nt 8 o'clock
In the evening, as the one Wednesday
night did, was an especially peculiar
freak of nature, and he offered no ex
planation for Its cause, stating that
he was Ignorant of local conditions.
H. E. Paine, the local weather ob
server, when seen yesterday, said that
he thought the fogs were caused by
the large amount of moisture which
has been in the air for the past few
days and which was quickly con
densed by a sudden slight drop In tho
temperature. Mr. Valne also stated
that there was no immediate prospect
of rain.
The weather maps which Mr. Clarke
makes are Issued dally and give up to
midnight on tho day previous tho high
est maximum and lowest minimum
temperature of all places In the United
States where there nre weather stu
tlons. They nlso give the velocity of
the wind nnd the amount of rainfall
in these places. Not only this, but
tho general state of the weather In all
of these points at S o'clock in tho
morning of tho day on which the re
port Is issued Is also shown.
The map Is made from these reports
and ut a single glnnce shows the tem
peraturo of the entire country. These
maps and reports will be sent from
Blnghamton on the train leaving
there at 11.02 p. m. and nrrlvlng hero
shortly before 1 o'clock. Any business
man desiring one may have one mailed
to him every day free by communicat
ing with Secretary Atherton and
agreeing to display them In a promi
nent place.
These reports and maps are of Incal
culable benefit to wholesale merchants
and shippers of perishable goods,
showing them whether the climatic
conditions which their shipments
would have to pass through were fav
orable or not.
SPECIAL MASS MEETING.
Interesting Services Will Be Held at
the R. R. Y. M. C. A.
On Sunday at 3:45 p. m. the Railroad
Young Men's Chrlstlnu association will
hold a special mass meeting at their
rooms. The speaker will bo H. O. Wil
liams, of Richmond, Vn., ono of tho
International railroad secretaries and
a good speaker.
Two selections will be rendered by
tho Orpheus club, which will afto play

quest, "If With All Your Heart," from

CAVE-IN OF SEWER TRENCH.
Edward McManus, of Plttston, Al
most Buried Alive.
Edward McMuqus, of Plttston, was
digging a trench yesterday morning
on Bennett street, und was about ten
feet below tho surface when suddenly
tho earth on both sides caved In, and
burled him beneath it. He was for
tunately, able to keep his head above
th dirt and was removed by his fol
low workmen.
He was removed to hlsjiomo on Un
ion street and on examination by n
physician he was found to be budly

FOG INTERFERED
WITH THE GOLFERS
NEARLY NOON BEFORE IT WAS
TOSSIBLE TO START.
Interesting Contest Between Travis,
the New York Crack, and A. Z.
Huntington Three Scranton Men
Fell Down in . the First Round.
Four Locals, 'However, Succeeded
in Winning a Place in tho Semi
Finals One Golfer Got Mixed Up
in the Fog and Bramble Buhses.
Tho second day of the golf touma
ment was not a day at all until about
noon. For nil practical purposes to the
golfer It might a well have been mid
night and he might fur better have
stayed In hU little white bed nnd in
sleep guinea additional sticngth and
endurance for the contest ns the fog
was so dense that it was In.posslblo to
see at a distance of llfty yards. Tho
pine trees loomed up gigantic In size
through their blunkot-llke s'wathlngs.
and the disconsolate golfers wandered
round losing themselvc? in the dull
gray mist und wondering why soma
smart person had not Invented a phos
phorescent ball which could bo dis
tinguished from tho all pervading
chaos. There wus something extreme
ly depressing about that fog and It
made tho visitors think of various
somebodies they had left at home who
would be a comfort If they were hero
and had a tendency to cause nil the
testless golfers to lt down by the fire
and tell ghost stories more suited to
All Hallow's eve- than the great day of
a tournament.
At about half past eleven tho sun
began to dispel tho gloom und the play
ers started off." It. Is a wonder that
some of them or some of tho eager
spectators haven't been killed, for in
that fog it was impossible to see whero
a ball would land or to dodgo Its track
If it happened to go wild. In many
respects the l omuls of Wednesday and
yesterday were a game of blindmnn's
buff, but splendid golf has been played,
notwithstanding the disadvantages,
notwithstanding the dlsadvintasos.
BOTH PLAYED WELL-.
Much Interest centered In Mr. Travis
and his contest with A. S5. Huntington.
It was ono of tho most beautiful
matches ever seen on any links. Both
played magnificently. It wus such an
even game that they halved the four
teenth hole but afttr that Mr. Hunting
ton began to lose. The round was won
by Mr. Travis by two strokes only.
Today he will play with Mr. Blair In
the seml-linnls while Captain Brooks
plays against Mr. Taylor. With all
due deference to the excellent game
put up hy the latter It Is confidently
expected that tint finals tomorrow will
be between .Mr. Travis and the popular
captain of the Scranton golf team. It
good wishes nnd the utmost nnxlety
on tho ifirt of a multitude of friends
can help John Brook3 to win there
will be no doubt that the County club
cup will be kept at home. Scranton
people are generally very polite to vis
itors but much as they admire Mr.
Travis and marvel at his fine playing
the majority will not bo Inconsolable
if he is defeated.
Mr. Travis is a man of fine physique
and a face whose firmly Jet lines indi
cate determination seldom so evident.
He probably possesses nn outfit of more
cut glass and silver than the most for
tunate bride beneath the grade of a
princess. He gathered In spoils last
year to the amount of llftv or mora
cups nnd when it is-romembered that
a "cup" means anything from a plain
two handled affair on an ebony stand
ard, to a glorified punch bowl, or a re
splendent repousse tankard two or
three feet high the nttraotlveness of
the Travis treasure vaults may bo im
agined. LOCAL PLAYERS OUT.
In tho first round yesterday three
Scranton men fell down. They were
Messrs. Sliafer, T. It. Brooks and W. J.
Torrey. But four local players, Messrs
T. H. Watklns, J. II. Brooks, James
Blair, Jr., and F. C. Fuller, won. The
result of the championship first round
was as follows: Kilmer defeated W. J.
Torrey :i up, 2 to play; Travis defeated
Huntington 2 up; Blair defeated Young
4 up, 3 to piny; Johnson defeated Wood
ruff 1 up; J. H. Brooks defeated Love

noon. Travis defeated Kilmer i" up, 4
to play; Blair defeated Johnson 2 up, 1
to play; Brooks defeated Fuller 4 up, 3
to play; Taylor defeated Watklns 3 up,
2 to play.
The consolation match was also deep
ly Interesting.
Mr. J. H. Torrey won by default, his
opponent, Mr. Farnham, of Wllkes-
Barre, being unable to play, owing to
a business engagement which detnlned
hlin at home.
Parsons defeated Turner 5 up. 4 to
play; Hudnut defeated Storrs 1 up on
the nineteenth hole; Law Watklns de
feated O. W. K. Fuller 9 up, 8 to play;

Tho links were rather deserted by the
ladles during tho nfternoon, owing to
the rlvnl attractions of the Illng-Bes-sell
wedding. It would take a truly re
markable game of golf, In which nearly
every woman expected to win a cup by
proxy or otherwise, to draw her away
from a beautiful wedding, but throngs
hustcned to the Country club as soon
us the ceremony had been concluded.
The logs In the big fireplace glowed
cheerily nnd cast rosy lights over the
glittering prizes spread out In bravo
array above the chimney piece. There,
too, In the place of honor was the "thorn
cup" won by Mr. J. L. Taylor. That
gentleman on the previous day had en
deavored to emulate the example of the
Individual famed In tho nursery rhyme
for being wise and nlso for Jumping
Into a bramble bush. Although Mr.
Taylor did not go to the length of
scratching out both his eyes, ho bit
terly lamented the grievous nflllctlons
he received from tho thorn bush Into
which ho landed, because of the fog,
nnd wns considerably chaffed thereat.
Yesterday, ntter his victory, he was
presented with an Ingeniously con
trived cup of thorns, the ceremonies
pertaining thereto being of nn amus
ing chnracter. Sir. Taylor, his wife and
daughter nre guests of Mr. and Mrs. T.
H. Watklns. ,
Mrs. J. BenJ. Dlmmlck, Mrs. H. B.
Reynolds, Mrs. 11. C. Shafer, Miss Mc
Lcod and Miss Linen were among those
who assisted In serving tea nt the club
In the afternoon.
Today the putting contest nnd tho
men's foursome will be played, which,
with the excitement of the semi-finals,
will le of great Interest. Tomorrow
the finals In both championship nnd
consolation matches and the driving
contest will be played.
Iist night a number of the visiting
golfers and friends were entertained at
a dinner at the Jermyn.
RING-BESSELL NUPTIALS.
Pretty Church Wedding at St. Luke's
Yesterday Afternoon Large
nnd Fashionable Assemblage.
Every church wedding Is decided by
the people who attend to be "tho pret
tiest they ever saw " This well worn
phrase surety wns never more appro
priately applied than yesterday when

daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Ultimo
Bessell, was married to Mr. deorgo
Stuart Ring, of East Orange, N. J. The
ceremony was performed in St. Luke's
churoh, which more than any other
cacred edifice of Scranton seems, with
Its severe eccelcslastlcal lines enriched
by the lovely Gothic ornamentation,
peculiarly .fitting as a frame for a brid
al picture. The Episcopal service, too,
with its sublime diction und the addi
tional lmpresslveness of the advance
Into the chancel accompanying tho
solemn rite.
The bride, preceded by her sister Miss
Mary Bessell entered with her fath
er, following tho surpllced choir, whose

The bride's gown was exceptionally
pleasing and -was fashioned from heavy
Ivory satin with court train, the bodice
richly trimmed with point applique
and pearls. She wore n veil of rare
old point, and as she Is a slngulatly
beautiful girl, made a raro picture.
The maid of honor wuro a lovely
frock of white tulle striped with sat
in over white taffeta. She carried
white chrysanthemums. The maids

precisely alike in the soltrst, prettiest
shade of pink crepe dechlno over pink
taffeta, slipped far down over the
shoulders over a luce yoke and sleeves,
the bodice defined by a loose twist of
the crepe. They wore picture hats of

South Side Sewer Operations Are
Again Interrupted.
Pity Engineer Phillips visited the
scene of the construction of the Seven
teenth district main sewer at South
Scrunton, yesterday, and ordered Con
tractor Coons to suspend work until he
gave him permission to resume.
The cause of Mr. Phillips' action wns
due to many complaints which have
been made to, him, that Coons Is using
on tlie work sand that Is taken from
the dirt excavated along the line of
the sewer.
This allegation. Mr. Coons stated to
u Tiibune reporter last night, was un
true. Me says the sand used Is pro
cured from Plttston and Harrlsburg,
and hns met the approval of the cltv
engineer.
Work will be again resumed this
morning. Mr. Coons stated, Mr. Phil
lips having made nn examination of
the Rand and became satisfied that lt
was up to the standard, and that the
complaints made to him were not well
grounded.
