COMING INTO TAVOR HERE.
Automobiles are No Longer a Novelty
in Scranton.
Automobiles are coming much Into
favor In this city, and some six or eight
may be dilly seen Hitting up and down
the asphalt. They have become so
common In fact that people no longer
stop and sttetch their necks out of
place watching them disappear in the
distance
In cities where the horseless
carriage Is moie generally In
use, namely, New York and
Philadelphia, a number of the fair
sex are opposed to It for a very pe
culiar ronton. The larger number of
automobiles are run by a series of
small explosions of petroleum. The
waste liquid Is discharged through a
tiny pipe and forms In little streams
on the pavement.

Judge Edwards Is to Supervise the

The filling of the Jury wheel for 1900
will take place Friday next. The work
will be done by Judge Edwards and
Jury Commissioners Frank Dougherty

At the last filling there were 1.6D0
names placed In tho wheel. The same
number. It Is thought, will suffice for
this year.

MAN UNDER THE BED.
Discovery Made by a Servant Girl in
Scott's Hotel.
About 11,30 o'clock last night, Police
Lieutenant Davis was approached by
J C. Scott, who keeps a hotel on (ho
200 block on Lackawanna avenue. Mr.
Scott told his story to the lieutenant,
who, with Patrolman Sartor, went over
to the place and arrested a man found
on the premises.
It seems that as one of the servant
girls of the house was about to retire
for the night, she saw a man's foot
under tho bd. She screamed for help,
and the foot gradually emerged from
Its resting place, together with the rest
of the owner's anatomy. He proved to
be a tall, very dlity and extremely dls
ogrceable sppelmen of the genus tramp,
nnd. In addition to the above-named
qualifications, was beautifully drunk.
When Lieutenant Davis questioned
him as to his name, where he lived,
etc., the wnndercr replied that his homo
was In Scranton as long as he was here,
and when he wasn't It was somewhere
else.
Ho was entrusted to the care of
Patrolman Sartor, who marched him
down to the Centre street statlon.where
he was lodged for the night. He there
gave his name as Jim Raymond, but It
Is probably a fictitious one. Earlier In
the evening he was seen prowling
around Scott's, and It Is likely that rob
bery was his object in going Into the
place.
NEW SECTION OPENED UP.
Cars Are Now Running from Scran
ton to Lackawnnn.
The extension of tho Taylor line has
been completed as far as Lackawanna
station and on Saturday cars were run
for the first time on the section of the
road beyond the Old Forge High school.
It will bo tho middle of January or
first of February, General Manager Sll
llman says, before the road will be
opened up over tho remaining distance.
Only about a mile of track remains to
be laid to connect the extension with
the northern terminal of the Duryea
line of the Wyoming Valley Traction
company, but as tho river is to be
crossed by an Independent brldge.whlch
will also carrv the tracks above tho
grado crossing of the Lackawanna's
"Bloom" division, the work will be
necessarily slow.
Once the line Is opened up, though, It
Is confidently expected to be a big
money-maker. The trip between Scran
ton to Plttston by this line will be
much shorter than the Mooslc and
Avoca route and consequently will tend
to draw many shoppers to Scranton
who now go to Wllkes-Barre, because
of the slow trip made over the old
route. A populous and growing string
of hamlets between Rendham and Dur
yea will be furnished street car facil
ities for tho first time, and it Is safe
to presume they will not be slow In
taking advantage of them. This will
mean a good-sized addition to Scran
ton's contributing territory.
DIED IN NEW YORK.
Police Notified of the Demise
of
James Buckley.
The following telegram was received
by Chief of Police Robllng yesterday:
New York, Nov. 26, 1S55.
Chief of Police, Scranton, Pa.
l'lenso notify friends of Michael Duck
ley business, lather died here this morn
ing. Ask what I am to do with tho re
mains. Thomas Sheehan,
216 East 12Sth Street.
Inquiries weie made and It was dls
coveied that n. Michael Buckley lived
at 116 South Rebecca avenue. Ho had
a brother by tho name of James, a
lather, who formerly lived at 311 North
Sumner avenue, but had gone to New
York.
About 4.30 o'clock yesterday after
noon another telegram, arrived which
stated that the man's name was James
I and not Michael Buckley, and that he
lived In Hyde, Park. Therefore in all
probability It Is the James Buckley
Who lived at 311 North Sumner avenue.

MEMBERS OF AN
ALL STAR ELEVEN
MEN WHO COULD BE GATHERED
. IN THIS CITY.
They Have All Won Glory and Re
nown on the Gridiron and Banded
Together Would Constitute an
Eleven That Would Make It Very
Interesting for Any Foot Bnll
Team In This Country Mon Who
Would Have a Place on the Team,
There are proDaDly few cities In the
United States in which there Is so
much first class material for nn A No.
1 foot ball eleven ns Scranlon. A
team composed entirely of ex-collego
players could bo brought together
which would make any one of the "Big
Four" play Its hardest to score. In
considering such a team let us begin
with the ends.
At left end wo would undoubtedly
plnce Charles Gelbert, tho fleet-footed
young man who was recognized as tho
best end on tho college field when ho
played with tho University of Penn
sylvania. For three successive yer3
he was chosen end on tho All -American
team and was generally considered
as fine a player as was on the field.
For the other end, two Wesleyan men
are In the city and both, Strang? u
say, pedagogues, the one being Pi of.
Schlmpff, of tho High school, and the
other, Pi of. Young, of the HMiool of
the Lackawanna. In nil probability
Young would have tho cholca, as he
had more experience than his oppon
ent, who, however, would glvo him a
close run. Both men are qulok, wiry
and aggressive players and elth -r of
them calculated to drop an opposlnj
runner with tremendous force.
THE TACKLES.
For the tackle positions tho most
available men are George Lathrop,
Harry Lathrop and Dave Owens. Not
one of these men Is properly a tackle,
but still they are all big, powerful
fellows and have all had some experi
ence nt that position. Tho two Ln
throps are both Princeton men and
have played on both the fieshman and
varsity teams. Owens Is a graduate
of State Normal school and la a fler;
hard player who can play In almost
any position. Between these three
men would then lie the choice foi
tackle, nnd It would bo hard to siy
which was the best qualified.
At left guard Otto Wagonhurst
would bo stationed. He Is a hard
playing fellow and was one of the
star men of the University of Penn
sylvania eleven for several years. He
was on tho team nt the same time ns
Charlie Gelbert. At the other guard
tho only available candidate Is Wood
ruff, the Pennsylvania coach, who
made his home with his cousin, Attor
ney Woodruff, of this city, for a tine.
He is a great line-breaker and a man
who probably knows as much foot
ball as any man In tho country. He
may properly be termed a foot ball
Ulysses, nnd Is as wily and sagiclous
In gridiron tactics as ever was the
old Greek In matters of war and di
plomacy. SHOCH AT CENTRE.
Center would be taken care of with
the utmost caution and care by Martin
Layton Schoch, the big fellow of mam
moth shoulders who played center rush
on tho '97 Cornell eleven. He Is still
playing the game and In the eany
part of this season coached the Cor
nell team. At present he Is playing
on the Duquesne team at Pittsburg.
He Is acting ns tackle and putting up
a star game. Beside him Gelbert Is on
the Duquesne team and Wagonhurst
was until a few weeks ago. The trio
aroused universal admiration and ap
plause. So far, so good. Our all Scranton
team has a line which may almost be
termed Invincible. If possible, It Is
even stronger In the back field. At
quarter back would probably be sta
tioned John Brooks. The latter has
made more of a, mark at base ball
than foot ball and as shortstop played
on the Princeton nine four years. He
has had, however, considerable ex
perience at the game and has nil nat
ural qualifications for It. He Is short,
quick and snappy and has excellent
ability In generallng a team.
BLISS AND THORNE.
At left half back John J. Murphy,
the former Georgetown base ball play
er, foot ball player, sprinter and all
around nthlete, Is unquestlonaly the
man for tho place. He Is fast on his
feet, a good lino-breaker and an ex
cellent drop kicker.
At tho other half, Laurie Bliss, for
merly of Yale, Is the man who Is to
gallop around tho Imaginary ends who
will play the team In the distant fut
ure. He Is fast, quick and lively and
one of the best halves that ever wa3
dubbed a "Son of Ell." At full back
nothing more could be asked for. ns
another old Ynleslnn Is to bo stationed
at the position. "Brink" Thorne, one
of the longest punters, fiercest run
ners and hardest line-plungers that
ever hit against n Pilnceton or Har
vard formation Is the man for the
place. Thorne Is both a full and half
back and In the latter postlon was
chosen for the All-Amcrlcan team In
1S95.
This Is the team which could repre
sent Scranton on the gildlron and
which would play tho fastest game
ever seen In this locality. If this ag
gregation of stars could bo Induced to
come out on the field and practice
they would soon be able to put up an

A RACE AGAINST DEATH.
Attendants at the Lackawanna Hos
pital Had an Interesting Time
with Frank Worell.
There was created in tho yard of the
Lackawanna hospital Friday an In
cident, or rather a, series of Incidents
which deserve to bo chronicled on ac
count of the strange Intermingling or
the terribly serious and tho ludicrous
which was presented.
Frank Worell had been brought Into
the hospital In the last stages of mor
phine poisoning. He was entirely un
conscious and the pulsations of his
heart were growing Icfs every mo
ment. The only scientific and effective
mode of saving the patient's llfo In
such a case as this Is to exercise him
und endeavor by all possible means to
keep all tho bodily functions In ac- !
tlvlty. I
Preparations were laid accordingly. '
These preparations consisted, among
other thing?, of four stalwart order
lies, a tub of cold water, a hypodermic
syringe full of strychnine and a pitcher
of steaming coffee. Worell was held
up by tho two orderlies and led out
Into the yard, where one of the most
unique races against death that has
ever been run was engaged In.
A 'track wns maiked of? and the un
conscious man wns run about this by
the two orderlies. Every few minutes
a dipper of cold water would be dashed
down his back or a cup of tho hot cof
fee forced down his throat. This pe
culiar and strikingly bizarre race was
continued for about fifteen minutes, by
which time the two attendants were
about as tired men as one could find
In Northeastern Pennsylvania.
Worell was just beginning to regain
consciousness, however, and the two
remaining men were forced Into ser
vice and the run commenced again. In
the meantime the hospital fence and
tho windows of tho surrounding houses
were lined with people, all of whom
were In all piobablllty wondering Just
what freak of nature had so suddenly
converted so many human beings Into
wild lunatics. The omnipresent small
boy was also on hand in largo quanti
ties hugely enjoying the whole per
formance. Tho doctors and attendants were
nevertheless perfectly serious through
out, knowing that a man's llfo hung In
the balance. After the second duo
of attendants had been also completely
tired out and by tho time tho water
and the coffee had been exhausted,
Worell was desirous, as he expressed
It, of "licking tho whole crowd." He
was then put to bed and Is now rest
ing quietly at the hospital.
The surgeons say that had these
methods not been adopted tho man
would have died In ten minutes. A
similar case was received In Roosevelt
hospital In New Y'ork some time ago,
and as there Is no ground eonnected
with that Institution the patient had
tc bo run around the block, and It Is
said that tho performance was watched
by several thousand spectators.

of 3uv3iu of Railway.
Harrlsburg. Nov. 2C The annual re
port of Major Isaac B. Brown, super
intendent of the state bureau of rail
ways, shows there were 30 street rail
way corporations In Pennsylvania at
tho close of tho fiscal year ended June
30, Inst. The total canltal stock out
standing of operating street railway
corporations Is $103,122,310: bonded In
debtedness outstanding. $31,130,119; our

reduction of the bonded Indebtednesi
of operating street railway compan'es
during the year of $1,131,423. The re
duction In current liabilities wns $1.

MENTION OF SOME
MEN OF THE HOUR
THE HON. CYRUS GORDON TO
PRESIDE IN COURT HERE.
Is President Judge of Clearfield
County Court Clover Work Detec
tive Lcyshon Did In tho Pelozl
Case Succeeded In Havlns Him
Arrested In Italy Ghlof of the Firo
Department Walker Has Mrde
Many Friends Since Entering Upon
tho Dutlos of His Ofilce.
The Hon. Cyrus Gordon, president
Judge of Clearfield county, who will
assist Judges Archbald and Edward-)
In common nloas court this week, la
well known throughout the state to
uoth the lawyers and politicians. Ills
ability as a Judge, coupled with his
energy and readiness, hns caused him
to bo In much demand throughout his
neighboring counties and not infre
quently he hns been called to try Im
portant cases In distant courts. Before
his elevation to the bench In 1891, ho
took n prominent part In local and
state politics. He was a Republican of
the stalwart school and continues ns
such, cvnn In the face of the fact that
his 10 n-tnate nt college nnd life-long
personal and political friend, ex-Governor
Hastings, was a leider of the
opposition. This resulted, ns news
paper readers will remember, In a
series of attacks upon him by the
Philadelphia Press.
Judge Gordon was prominently men
tioned for the Superior bench at the
time the court was organized and at
every time since when there hns boon
a vacancy. Before Judge Gordon's
election, Clearfield was regarded as a
solid Democratic county. He was elect
ed, however, by a large majority. To
dny he will try the case of Fellows and
others against I.oomls, which has been
specially placed at the head of the trial
list.
John H. Walker, the present chief
of the Scranton fire department, is the
youngest man ever placed In that re
sponsible position, and duilng the short
time ho has been connected with tho
fire fighters of this city, he hns not
only endeared himself to the per
manent and volunteer members of the
department, but Iras also won tho
respect and esteem of city offielals,
members of councils and citizens gen
erally. From the first day Chief Walker
took hold of the reins he has been
called upon to face some of the fiercest
conflagrations ever known In this city,
and by his thoughtful performance of
duty has won many words of praise.
His efforts to strengthen the depart
ment and Increase tho supply of hosj
so much needed has met with public
approval, and he enjovs the friendship
nnd regard of every member of tho
department.
The esteem In which Chief Walker Is
hold by the permanent men and tho
members of his own company was fully
attcrted during Inst week, when the
former presented him with a handsome
i gold badge, and the latter with a beau
tiful sliver trumphet.
County Detective Thomas Lcvshon
wns brought prominently to the atten
tion of the people of the county this
week by tho clover work he did In
having Angelo Pelozl apprehended at
Naples, Italy, for tho inurder of An
tonio Splnello at Old Forge, October
29. The nature of Mr. Levshon's duties
subjects him to no little abuse and
very frequently this blinds the public
and prevents them from giving duo
credit for the truly excellent work that
Mr. I.eyshon Joes In making law
breaking unpleasant and unprofitable
among the cosmopolitan population of
this county.
Ever since Splnello wns murdered
on the night of October 29 by Pelozl,
Mr. Leyshon has worked unceasingly
night nnd day to bring tho murderer
to Justice, and his efforts were re
warded bv the arrest of Pelozl as he
was leaving the steamer at Naples,
Italy, on Wednesday last, on which ho
lied from this country.
The detective was approached by
colleagues of the murderer, who of
fered their asslstanee In locating Pa
lnzl. In every instance he learned that
these men were plavlng him fale and
trying to throw him off the track.
Their efforts were unavailing, for Mr.
Leyshon followed out his own theory
and It proved to be the correct one.
After satisfying himself that Pelozl
could be extradited, tho detective set
to work to have every out-g"Ing steam
ship from New York for Italy watched,
and tho very day Pelozl's friends In
formed the detective that tho fugitive
had sailed for New Orleans. It was
learned he had sailed for Italy. A
cablegram 'to the United States consul
at Naples caused the an est of Pelozl
as he was leaving the boat. Mr. Ley
shon has been successful In bringing
many criminals to Justice In Lack
awnnna county, who, but for his per
severance, might have escaped the
punishment their cilmes mcilted.
Thomas Beynon, whoso fine tenor
voice is heard each Sunday In the
Second Presbyterian chinch, Is anx
ious to take a course In voice culture
under the renowned Prof. Sauvage, of
New Yoik, and his many fi lends, xt
slrous of assisting him, have decided
to give him a testimonial concert at
tho Lyceum on Thursday evening,
Dec. 7.
Mr. Beynon has ever been more than
generous with the people of Scranton.
Ills services were always at the dis
posal of tho public for eveiy worthy
charity that gave anything In the way
of an entertainment and It Is only Just
that thoso ho has so often nBslsted
should now assist in making the com
ing concert a success that will make
It a testimonial In more than a mone
tary sense. Mr. Beynon Is a resident
of West Scranton.

TRICE FATATLY INJURED.
Fell from a Train nnd Was Terribly
Crushed.
Fred Price, of Lackawanna,' aged J9
yeais, was taken to the Lackawanna
hospital Saturday night and died about
half an hour after ho arrived there.
Price with his brother and two othr
young men boarded a coal train on
the Lackawanna nnd were stealing a
ride to Scranton. Whllo skipping from
car to car Price slipped and fell under
the wheels, which crushed both hi
legs nnd his right arm nnd hand. Hi
was picked up and carried to the Lack
awannnh ospltal.
