BALTUS COULD NOT APPEAR.
Constable Who Went to Arrest Him
Found Him In Bad Shnpe.
Andrew Hcrz, the Ptone avenue?
grocer, appeared before Alderman
John Lentcs, of tho South Side, yester
day nnd swore out a warrant for tho
arrest of John Haltus, of Gil Elm street,
for assault nnd battery.
The story ho told was a doleful one
and the list of Ualtus misdoings Ions.
Sundny night, llcrz said, l:o was
peacefully going home when Haltus
pounced upon htm and hit him with
such forcp ns to render him uncon
scious. When he revived h" resumed his
homeward walk, but again tho cruel
Haltus attacked him. Finally the
peaceful Hern reached his home. Ho
entered and thought he was nt last
free from his enemy. Hut no, Haltus
even tried to break Into the place.
This was the su.ry of Ilerz.
Constable Woelkcrs took the warrant
and went to Haltus' home. Hut lo and
behold! Haltus was found completely
laid up. His eyes were both closed, his
nose sliced, his face cut nnd one leg
swollen to double the size of the other.
Ills wounds were apparently made
with a knife and are very serious. Tho
case has, therefore, been postponed by
the alderman until the defendant Is
able to appear.
SEWER CONTRACTORS' ARREST.
Donahue and O'Boyle Interfered
with Running of Trolley Cars.
Contractors James O'Hoyle and
Michael A. Donahue were yesterday
arrested at the instance of the Scran
ton Hallway company for Interfering
with the running of tho company's
cars. Tho warrants wore sworn out
before Alderman John T. Howe.
The contractors are building a sewer
on North Main avenue nt tho corner
of Jones street. It seems that the
trench extends under tho car tracks
and undermines them, making the run
ning of cars at that point dangerous
and difficult.
.The company did not wish to push
the case, but desired to ascertain its
rights In the matter. The alderman
after hearing the evidence placed tho
costs upon the defendants and dis
missed tho case.
The parties interested came to an
amicable understanding.
MERTIE PEEK IS DEAD.
She Frequently Gave Exhibitions in
This City.
Mrs. P. H. Hoffman, better known ai
Mertle Peek, died at Silver Lake, near
Kingston, Mass., Sunday night. She
was considered the greatest hnrR.-.
woman of her day, nnd was well-
known here.
About ten years ago she paid fre
quent visits to this city with her man
ager, Harney Demarest, and gave ex
hibitions of her power over horses at
the Driving nark. Durlntr one Miimm,,
she made her headquarters In this city.
Christmas Doll Free.
Nothing so delights a child at Christ
mas time as a great big doll, a dolly
largo enough even to weal- baby'.s
clothes. This Is just the kind of .1
doll that the Cook's Flaked Hico Co.
are giving away free. The doll that
they are giving away is two and one
half feet high, being as largo as a child
two or three years old. Comes beauti
fully colored on inuslln. with directions
for mnklng so slmnle tlmr nnv mnti,,
can sew It together making an Indo-
nuuL-uuiu me size uoll that baby'a
clothes will fit.
To get this doll write to tho 'Cookv.
Flaked Hico Co., No. 3 Main street,
Matawan, N. J and enclose them ten
cents for mallage and one coupon,
which Is to bo found In every package
of Cook's Flaked Hice, which Is sold by
all our grocers.
A company must have very great
faith In their product to give so much
nway just to get people to use their
first pneknge, but wo are told that It
pays the company to do this, for when
a family once gets using Cook's Flaked
Rice they Und It so easily prepared
and so delicious a food that they are
forever a customer.
Security in Niagara Falls Property.
Well selected property in a rapidly
Browing city Is the safest of securities.
Tho rule Is that when a city doubles
In population Its real estate quadruples
In value.
Andrew Carnegie asserts that "more
fortunes havo been made from rise in
real estate than from all other causes
combined."
The Niagara Power Company owns
1.G00 acres of land In the eastern and
southeastern portions of the city, and
the Hydraulic Power and Manufactur
ing company own 70 neres of land on
the west bordering on tho river.
These lands nre to be occupied by
Industrial establishments located by
tho mngnet of cheap power ahd unsur
passed shipping facilities, perfected by
ample capital to supply all required
conveniences to the manufacturer.
The area available for residences
nnd business purposes is confined to
such small limits that Investments
therein nt present prices are safe, with
prospective profltH unusually large.

POUR NEW OPINIONS
BY JUDGE GUNSTER
AFFIRMS THE VERDICT IN
RARRICK CASE.
Awards n New Trial In tho Grny
McCormack Ejectment Suit nnd
Strikes Off Two Municipal Liens
Which the City of Carbondalo Ir
regularly Filed Largo Number of
Orders Made by the Court Going
Over tho Argument List Decree
in Divorce Granted.
One of n number of opinions sent
down by Judge Ounster yesterday re
fuses the motion of the defendant for
a new trial In tho case of George liar
rlck against tho city of Scranton nnd
P. J. McMnnatnon. Tho latter, who Is
park policeman, arrested the plaintiff
for committing n nuisance at Nay
Aug park. Tho plaintiff secured u
verdict against the city and the po
liceman, on the ground that the ar
rest was illegal, the olllcer not having
seen the offense and not having a war
rant. In refusing tho new trial Judge Gun
ster says: "1 regret very much to oe
compelled to nftlrm a verdict against
a police olllcor of this city, but tho
olllcer, In making the arrest without
warrant, was clearly In the wrong."
A new trial was granted by Judge
Gunster In the Gray-McCormack eject
ment suit. In which the plaintiff se
cured a verdict. He says: "Tho diffi
culty with the verdict and the In
structions of the court to the jury l.i
thnt the evidence falls to show hov.
when, where or how much land Gray
purchased from McCormack of the land
which McCormack had purchased of
Merrlf.eld."
OPINION ON LIENS.
In making absolute the rule to strike
off the lien In the cases of city of Car
bondalo against Alexander Glllls and
Thomas O'Connell, Judge Gunster says
that municipal liens in third class citle.i
are regulated by the Act of 1S99 an I
that the Act of 1S91 must yield when
ever they come In conflict.
The liens were for tho construction
of the pavement on Park Place, In the
city of Carbondnle, which wns done
by Contractors Hlnlr & Kennedy. The
laying of the pavement was done with
out the petition of the abutting prop
erty owners under an ordinance of the
city councils. The contractors under
stood the circumstances and assume
tlio responsibility by commencing me
work. When the work was partially
completed they tried to raise some
money from the Carbondalo banks, but
tho banks would not take the im
provement bonds that were issued.
Then they stopped work op. the pave
ment, but tho city came to their re
lief and guaranteed tho payment of
the bonds, and the contractors finished
tho work. The city solicitor llled liens
against tho property owners, and two
of tho owners. Dr. Glllls and Thomas
O'Connell, who opposed tho laying of
the pavement brought suit by their at
torney, John P. Murphy, to have the
liens filed by the city solicitor of Car
bondalo against their property stricken
off. The matter came up for argument
nt the last argument court. Tho city
of Carbondnle will havo to pay tln
whole expense of the pavement. City
Solicitor Stunrt, however, snys he wlil
carry the matter to tho superior court.

CITY'S MILK SUPPLY.
Woman's Club of Green Ridge Yes
terday Gave Some Consideration to
It Other Reforms Discussed.
Having succeeded In getting a better
and more wholesome qual.'v of water
for Green Ridge the householl eco
nomics section of the Green Tlldgo Wo
man's club at Us meeting 3, sitordav
turned Its attention to tho nature of
the city's mill: supply, ths danr of
public funeralu and tho necessity for
a curfew law.
There was a large attendance aMd at
the close of the public meeting a busi
ness session was held at which the
matter of contagious diseases waj dis
cussed and the grave situation of the
city In this respect was deplored.
It was stated that a case of diph
theria had existed for some time in the
club house of the Green Ridge Wheel
men, but that the building Is not pla
carded, although the board of health
had been notified.
It Is proposed to make nn effort
toward a crusade against nnhllr fun.
crals In eases of contagious disease.
the meeting of the afternoon was
addresses by Dr. Helmer, the well
known veterinary surgeon. He gave
an excellent paper on "Milk; Its Rela
tion to the Production and Distribu
tion of Disease." He dwelt upon the
Importance of a pure milk supply as
the perfect food for infants, such a
large proportion of whom die under five
j ears of nse. Aside from tho danger
from typhoid and tuberculosis com
municable In milk Is the lack of nour
ishing quality, resulting In Inanition,
marasmus, etc. Dr. Helmer's p.ipr
was chiefly In tho form of an outline
which nt a later meeting Is to be given
moiH in detail.
At Its close, G. A. Dounce, of the
Scranton Dairy company, made re
marks corroborating tho KntiUmontn
Just expressed and urging investiga
tion ot tlio dairy under his supervision,
also inviting tho fullest rrltlplsm nt
any unsatisfactory conditions which
visitors mignt unci there.
Mr. Dounce was followed by an ex
cellent paper given by Dr. II. V. Lo
gan on the "Curfew Question." He
urged the necessity for such an ordin
ance In Scranton, where he believed
marked results would ensue from
obliging young girls and boys to re
main Indoors at night. He quoted nu
merous opinions from mayors, chiefs
of police nnd various officials In cities
where such nn ordinance Is In vogue
which In unqualified terms acknowl
edged the great benefit to public mor
als which had thus been obtained.
At the next fortnightly meeting the
subject of milk will be further dis
cussed. A Card.
