NORTON'S BULLETIN.
Fine Wall Papers
At Half
the Regular Prices.
having finished our nnnual inventory
of stock we find a lot of Bemnnnts
and nmnll quatltiea, enough for
one or two rooms of each, which we
want to clear out to make room
for larger quantities of other
patterns, and offer them at half the
usual prices while they last. This
is a good chnnce to get real
bargains in fine Wall Pnpcis
where small quantities ate wanted.
The variety of patterns and colors is
large, but the quantity of each
is limited. We want to get them
out the store before spring trade
begins.

GORY LIST FOR
THE GRAND JURY
RECKLESS DISREGARD FOR LIFE
IS STRONGLY EVIDENCED.
Review of the More Serious Shooting
and Stabbing Affrays Which Have
Occuried Recently and Which the
Grand Juiy This Week Will Be
Called Upon, to Consider In Every
Instance the Killing or Attempted
Killing Was Without Anything
Appioachlng a Just Provocation.
If this week's grund Jury should be
called upon to render a sort of general
verdict at tho conclusion of Its sit
tltiKS It doubtless would bo that life
Is held rather cheat p In Lackawanna
county. They nie going to hear of a
whole lot of blood-letting.
Kit st on the list Is tho .Tcssup mur
der of Jan. 22. There was n christen
ing the day ptevlotts at the homo of
Ulovaiinl Glllardl. It passed oft with
out us much In the way of customary
comtnonioi.itlon as n cracked skull.
Peter rhlprlano, u good friend and
well-wisher of the family and one of
the sponsors of the child thought this
hardly fair to tho babe, so tho next
night, when tho festivities were le
newcil he shot tlnee men, killing one
and soveiely Injuiying two.
The dead man Is August Ksconla.
Amengo Maria Angello was shot In the
right arm and August Bannnla le
eched one bullet In the shoulder and
another In tho leg. A fifth bullet cut
a hole In another man's hat.
Tho shooting wus done without the
slightest piovoeatlon, as far as can bo
le.iined. Chlprlano accused Kseonla of
maligning him and when Ksconln said
something In leply he was laid low
with u bullet In his lieait. Four other
men lushed at Chlpilano and three of
them were shot.
t'liipiiuno was afterwards cjptuied
by i mob and roughly handled. Ho
said ho shot tu self defense, but as
yet has given no explanation ot what
ho was defending himself against.
OAK HILL SHOOTING.
The Oak Hill shooting affray of Feb.
2:: Is still fiesh in the minds of the
leading public, Martin Allen, of Moo
sle, stepped out of his cimiago to
stialghten n leaning post on his line
feme dhlding a property ho owned
ftom one which David S. DaU owned
and occupied. Thete was some enmity
between the two men, growing out of
.i dispute about this lino fence, and
Allen's ait so emaged Davis that he
came out of his house with a shotgun
and without a word filled Allen's back
and legs with No. 10 shot. Allen was
pionounced out of danger Tuesday,
and Friday Lals was released on
?MHl ball furnished by Oscar H. Decker.
One of tho most pronounced instan
ces of muiderous lecklessness that will
come to the July's attention is found
in the case of tho two anarchists,
.Jean Gullhot and Francis Mcillcr, who
shot Policemen Kays and Snyder In
Dunmnre last July. They wero bent
on blowing up a coal opeiator's lesi
denco one night about 11 o'clock, an 1
when tho policemen happened to meet
them and question them about their
prowling around at that hour one of
them, Oullhot, Impatient nt Mot Iter's
dalliance, grabbed the revolver which
Meritor had drawn and shot both offi
cers. Kays lecelved a bullet In tho
abdomen and It was only after sevoi.il
months' hovering between life and
death that ho lecovered. Snyder was
only slightly wounded.
A bomb made of gas pipe filled with
dynamite and supplied with a. string
by which It could be suspended from
u door knob was found near the scene
of the shooting by Sergeant Hldgway
the next morning. The murderous
pair boasted ot their escapade ufter
leaching niontreal, Canada, and ai"3
now In the county Jail. They admit
their aullt.
CAUBONDALK AFFRAY.
February 10 Robert Mat shall enteied
John Powlka's saloon In Carbondale
and challenged his friend, Thomas
Phllllp, with whom he had worked
on the Gi.nlty road for twenty yeais,
to engage. In a wrestling match. Phil
lips who Is u poweitul man, weigh
ing 20 pounds, laughed at the propo
sition of his comparatively diminutive
ltlend, but, as the lutter persisted in
having u wrestle, he was accommo
dated. With the greatest ease Phillips bent
the smaller man double and playfully
loweied him to within a few Inches
ot" the lloor, lepeatlng the feat several
times. This and Phillips' accompany
ing lemaift that he didn't want to put
him all the way to the lloor bjijuse
them would be no gteat credit In
tin owing hlni or something to that ef
lect illcd Muish.ill to such an extent
that he piled some moio whiskey lnto
himself and, watching an oppoitunlty,
stole behind Phillips and aimed a knife
tin ust at his throat.
Powlka, the hotel-keeper, who saw
the i.iised knife, grabbed Marshall'
aim, but succeeded only In averting
the blow fiom Its vital target. The
blade passed under Phillips' arm and
Imbedded Itself In the muscles along
side the shoulder blade. Phillips lett
his bed for the first time Wednesday
ot this week.
The Luddcu ease, from Old Fotge,
while it will not come befoio the stand
juiy, ho already having been Indicted,
may fittingly bo Included In this car
mine category, as It will bo on the
same tilal list as the othcis at the
next term of quarter sessions.
MANY OTHER CASKS.
Thete aie a number of other felon
ious wounding eases to bo passed up
on, but, as the wounder did not sue
iced In wounding tho woundee suffi
ciently to give him a peep Into the
gieat beyond they do not attracumueh
attention. Hardly a term of court
passes but what several of these Inten
tional murderers do not escape with
little or no punishment.
Judge H. M. McClure, of Lewlsburg,
who pieslded at several sessions of
criminal court In this county, cx
piessed astonishment at the number
of cases he was called upon to try in
which theie weio assaults with deadly
weapons. He said In u casual conver
sation that In sentencing a man con
victed In a 'case of this kind he gave
hlni a year to begin with for simply
having a deadly weapon In his posses
sion. His dlstitct hud this same cilmc In
abundance when he tlrst went on tho
bench, but now It Is seldom ho Is culled
upon to tiy a shooting or stabbing
affray and In portions of his district
ho has the same conditions to contend
with that we have In cosmopolitan

MORTON'S DISCOVERY.
He Says the Region Hereabouts
Abound in Umber and Sienna
of the Purest Quality.
All this region round, according to
Chemist Charles Morton, of North
Washington avenue, is rich In deposits
of tho purest quality of umber and
sienna, two ot the most valuable of
the Ingredients that go Into the com
position of 'the finer grades of paints.
Theio Is only one mill In the whole
United States for tho prepaiatlon of
umber and sienna for the market and
that mill Is conducted by Mr. Morton.
It mtiy be that dealets In these ma
tcilals will dispute Mr. Morton's state
ment about his mill being tho only
one of Its kind In tho country. Re
that as It may, ho says It positively
and ho talks like a man who knows
whereof he speaks.
He says theie weio 701,000 tons of
umber and sienna, manufactured last
year In France, Italy find Canada,
each ot which countries has one ot the
only other three such mills In fie
wot Id that Mr. Morton knows of. New
York city alone handled half, a million
tons of these two materials last year.
The question Mr. Morton would raise
Is, where did tho New York Jobbcis
got this half million tons of umber and
sienna? He answers It by saying that
they made It from lampblack and oth
er mateilals.
If the raw mateilal for the manu
factuio of umber and sienna aro to bs
had for the mete shoveling, as Is tho
case hereabouts, why should any one
make an Imitation article? a person
naturally Inquires.
Mr. Morton's answer to this Is that
the work of making the Imitation arti
cles Is a simple trick, white the means
of niaiiufuctuilng tho real thing is n
secret known to few. Mr. Morton
claims to bo one ot these few and that
tils two sons arc being taught the
secret as a legacy that will, he hopes,
prove to be a rich one.
Mr. Morton learned the secret In
France and perfected himself In prac
ticing It In Canada. He came to these
parts a quarter of a century ago and
began prospecting, being a mineralo
gist as well as chemist. He says ho
has walked the valley and mountains
on either side from Carbondale to
Plttston. "I can start a mill nny
whete In this region," said Mr. Mor
ton, "and not have to carry my raw
material more than three miles."
Peckvlllo Is particularly rich In these
deposits and a large vein Is found In
Tilpp patk. Over near Connell pajk
Is another big e!n and down Moostc
way it Is nlso quite plentiful.
Twenty-one years ago Mr. Morton
attempted to establish a manufactory,
but through lack of funds the enter
prise fell through. Recently he or
ganized a stock company with a capi
tal of $0,000 and Is at present manu
factutlng In a small way at Throop.
He can turn out two tons a day, but,
us he has not as yet gotten the goods
on the market he has little call for
anything more than samples. He Is
also manufacturing Van Dyke brown
fiom a dlit found near Connell's park.
This Is also very valuable, Mr. Morton
says.
The umber and sienna, or the stuff
being sold for ''umber und sienna In
this country, costs 10 cents a pound
In Its unptepared state. Prepared with
oil It costs In cans about twice that
much. Mr. Morton says he can make,
prepaie and can the real article at
four cents a pound und get rich on It
If he can only get It going once.

CONFERENCE ABOUT
PROPOSED VIADUCT
HELD IN THE OFFICE OF THE
CITY SOLICITOR.
Present Were Chief Engineer Mc
Farlaud of the Lackawanna Road,
General Manager BUHman of the
Scranton Railway Company and a
Number of Officials of the City.
Various Plans for Viaducts Over
the West Lackawanna Avenue
Crossing Weic Considered.
Anybody who has been labcnlng
under the Impression since February "0
thnt the viaduct proposition In dead be
yond recnll would have had that Im
pression speedily lemoved had he been
present at Saturday afternoon's meet
ing of tho Joint' sttcctK and bridges
committee, held In City Solicitor Vos
burg's office, In pttisuance of the pro
visions of a Joint resolution of coun
cils lately passed. Viaduct, viaduct,
viaduct, was all that was talked for
about two consecutive hours. Theie
was nothing but talk, however. No ac
tion was taken.
The Joint lesolutlon lefetred to above
wus Introduced by Mr. Godshalt and
provides that the matter of a viaduct
be left to the Joint streets and bridges
committee with Instiuctlons that that
body have plans and specifications pre
pared for the structure; that they pre
pare an accurate estimate of Its cost,
secure options on nil property to be
condemned, If any, and present this
Information, together with a new via
duct ordlnnnce, to councils.
Saturday's meeting was held for the
ostensible purpose of conferring with
Chief Engineer McFnrland, of the
Lackawanna company, with a view of
heating that gentleman's Ideas on the
question and also to decide upon a loca
Hon for the viaduct. Present tit the
meeting, in addition to Mr. McFnrland,
wero the following: Major Everett
Warren, representing tho company's
Interests; Goneinl Manager Sllllmun,
of the Scrnnton Railway company;
City Solicitor A. A. Vosburg, City En
gineer Joseph P. Phillips, Street Com
missioner Roland Thomas and Coun
cllmen George Sanderson, J, A. Lans
ing, J. J. Schneider, K. M. Tewkesbury,
W. V. Griffiths, Frederick Phillips and
T. F. Morris.
MR. M'FARLAND'S. PLAN.
Mr. McFarlund presented a plan
which ho thought was the most suit
able ot any and tho cheapest for tho
city. This provided for the construc
tion of a viaduct seventy feet wide
from the centre of tho street south,
thus lequlrlng the condemnation of
only thirty feet of private property, as
tho stteot at this point Is sixty feet
wide and the sidewalk ten feet. Mr.
Warren thought that It such a viaduct
was erected the people on the north
side of the street could claim no dam
ages. Mr. Vosburg was not so suie on this
point and said that as the crossing
would bo closed they might claim dam
nges, and referred to the Robinson
street cases, whore the street was only
partly closed at one end, yet Judge
Edwards allowed the damage cases to
go to the Jury without legally settling
this point, showing that the law was
not clear on It.
Mr. Warren suggested that the best
plan to pursue would be for the com
mittee to decide upon a width and a
location for the viaduct; then let the
city engineer, acting In conjunction
with tho engineers of the railroad and
street railway companies, draw up a
set of plans and present them to the
new stieets and bridges committee
with a statement from the officials of
both companies showing how much
each would contribute. The commit
tee could then secure options on prop
erty to be condemned and an estimate
of the damages to be incurred, and
guided by this Information diaw up a
suitable oidinance.
COULD NOT AGREE ON PLAN.
This plan seemed to be acceptable to
all piesent, but they couldn't agree on
a location. Some wanted It covering
the entile street; some wanted it to be
constructed from the centre ot the
street south und some from the curb
line south. Mr. Schneider piesented a
beautiful scheme by which he pro
posed that the Lackawanna company
buy up all the propeity bounded by
West Linden street, their present
tracks, Nealls court und Ninth street
for extra yard loom. A btldge could
then be elected over the tincks and
the pioblem solved. This looked very
nice, but Mr. McFarland dissipated It
In u moment by saying thut the curve
Into the stone bridge would bo entirely
too sharp to bo used and that besides
It would cost the company something
ltke $100,000.
Though the committee could not
agiee upon a site, there was one thing
they did agree on and that was that
the next viaduct ordinance should pro
vide explicitly and plainly that the
crossing be closed. It was also thought,
that the next ordinance ptepared
should state distinctly wheie the struc
ture was to bo built, as the phrase "on
tho south side of the street" was con
sldeied too vague. A number of those
piesenf were Inclined to think that on
account of these two omissions the last
oidinance was defeated. Some one else
suggested that It was lost because It
was not voted upon at a special elec
tion, while Mr. Calpln, who was pres
ent, made bold enough to say that It
was defeated because the two com
panies didn't offer to contribute enough
towards its construction.
MEETING ADJOURNED.
After two hours of explanations, ar
guments and general talk, the com
mittee decided to adjourn sine die. Mr.
Warren said that the only thing Mr.
McFarland had accomplished by com
ing on from New York was the "meet
ing of a number of very delightful
gentlemen." It Is very doubtful as to
whether the present committee will
again consider tho question, but the
matter will undoubtedly bo taken up
by tho new committee after reorgan
ization, for, us stated befoie, the via
duct is still very much ullve.
As an Instance of how easy a mat
ter It Is for other cities to erect via
ducts, the fact might bo mentioned
that Blnshaniton will soon commence
the election of an Immense $300,000
structure over the Chenango street
crossing and that tho cost will be di
vided as follows: Lackawanna Rail
road company, 150,000; Erie Railroad
company, $50,000; state of New York,
$50,000; city of Ulnghamton, $50,000.
That's because there's a New Yoik
state lnw which specifies who shall pay
for erecting viaducts that do away
with grade crossing and what propot-
Hon of the cost they shall pay.
HE WOULD SHUT OUT OLEO.
Selectman James Inaugurates a Cru
sade Against It.
No less than ridding the city of oleo
ma! gorlne Is tho task Select Council
man Edward James, of tho Sixth ward,
has put upon himself. How this Is
going to be effected he himself does
not definitely know, but ho Is deter
mined that It shall be donn If there Is
a way of doing It, and he has taken
steps to discover If there Is a way.
His first move was nude nt Thuii
day's meeting of council, when ho In
troduced a lesolutlon directing the food
Inspector to report to council tho namon
of all parties who have taken out n.
government license for the sale of oleo.
This having been accomplished, Mr.
James proposes to follow It up with
legislation to accomplish looking to
tho end ho has In view.
Mr. James says he Is piomptcd In
this crusndo solely by his deslie to pro
tect honest merchants. Unscrupulous
dealers, h- says, palm off the Imita
tion butter as the pure creamery pro
duct to the hurt of the honest dealers
who handle the real article.
Tho federal laws goVernlng the snlo
of oleo prescribe that It shall be la
belled "olcomargerlne" In letters of a
stipulated size and that every place
where oleo Is sold a notice to that ef
fect shall 'be posted. Mr. James, from
a cursory examination, Is pretty well
satisfied that the federal laws arc In
feveral Instances disregarded, to say
tho least, and ho purposes to show this
by the food Inspector's report which
his resolution of last Thursday called
for.
A heavy special tax on the sale of
the much legislated against stuff is
one of the things Mr. James has In
mind. If this can be done, and he be
lieves It can, an effective cure ot the
evil Is obtained. Mr. James' conduct
of this crusade will be watched with
Interest.
