EXCELLENT ZNTERTAIMMXXT.
Conducted Last Evening in the Ball
at Holy Cross Church.
A St. Patrick's eve celebration was
last evening conducted by Division No.
20, Ancient Order of Hibernians, who
conducted a most enjoyable and thor
oughly successful entertainment In tho
basement of Holy Cross church on
Fifth street.
The fenture of the evening was an
excellent address by Rev. James Ma
lone, of St. Paul's church, Green Rldire,
who spoke on the life and deeds of St.
Patrick, tho apostle of Ireland. Tho
St. ThomaH College Oleo club, which
Is fast making a splendid reputation
for itself, also rendered several selec
tions. A piano solo was given by Miss Rose
Conway, and vocal solos were rendered
by Master Wnhburn, Thomas Thorn
ton. Frank Riley", John Lynott and
James Cummlngs. Miss Knto Walsh
and Master McNally gave recitations,
and P. J. Douglas gave a Yankee Im
personation that was well received.
Rev. William O'Donnell, the pastor of
the church, acted as chairman of the
evening, and Aloyslus Colllgan was ac
companist. Tho evening was concluded
with the singing of "God Save Ire
land," by the entire audience.
HEAVY SNOW STORM.
Employes of Street Railway Company
and the Street Commissioner's
Department Kept Busy.
The heaviest snow storm of the year
ceased between 4 and 6 o'clock yes
terday morning after .having continued
almost unceasingly for over twelve
hours. The average depth at its cest
satlon was about ten Inches. A few
hours later the clouds all cleared away
and the sun came out In all Its glory,
soon producing that awful condition
Known as a "spring thaw."
The snow had drifted In many places
to a depth of three and even four
feet and extra work was furnished
many in the clearing oft of sidewalks
and roofs. The street cars were kept
running all night at long Intervals
where the tracks were not too heavily
blocked and this prevented serious de
lays in the morning. The Providence
lines were tied up, however, and the
cars didn't commence to run until
about 9 o'clock, causing Providence
road to be a very crowded thorough
fare for a few hours, those whose
business was in the central city having
too walk to work.
Street Commissioner Thomas didn't
begin the work of clearing the cross
ings in the central city until the early
part of the afternoon, and, as a con
sequence only two were cleaned at
nlghtfull, but he Intends to continue
the good work today.
The walking was,. as a general rule,
very bad, the snow melting quickly
under the sun's rays and producing
slush of the very slushiest kind.
HAT TRIMMING SOCIAL.
Was Given Last Night at All Soul's
Universallst Church.
The Young People's Social society of
the All Souls' Universallst church met
In tho church on Pine street .last night
and conducted a highly enjoyable hat
trimming social. Preceding this tho
regular annual meeting of the congre
gation was held, the chief ev?nt of
which "was the re-electing of Rev. Dr.
Beardsley, pastor.
After this enjoyment and' pleasure
reigned supremo. The hat titmmlng
consisted In each male member of the
party compounding a hat from the
various elements, such as ribbons,
feathers, etc., assigned to him. The
results were wonderful to behold, be
ing creations fcuch as any Parisian
'milliner might 'envy'. 'Archie Ufiijanitn
took first prize by constructing a most
marvellous ladles' bonnet, while Mr.
Horan, of Towanda, was given a con
solation prize, as the hat of which he
was the artist would be spurred by
even an Indian squaw.
Refreshments were served and tho
party broke up about 10.30 o'clock.
FOREHEAD WAS CUT.
sMan Injured in a Drunken Brawl
on Penn Avenue.
About 6 o'clock yesterday afternoon
two men engaged1 In an altercation at
Penn avenue and Linden street. Tho
quarrel arose out of some trivial cause
and was culminated by the one man
strlklnEho other with such force that
he fell heavily on the sidewalk. He
struck his forehead against the curb
and It bled copiously, a severe gash
being made.
Special Ofllcer TerwIUIger and CltUen
Eugene May took the aggressor In the
quarrel to the Central police station
und his injured companion was shortly
nfterwurd taken there.
Dr. Fulton was Eummoned and he
put three stitches Into the cut In the
man's forehead. Both were retained
at the ttntlon and will be given a hear
ing this morning.

IRA H. BKADhR
CHOKED TO DEATH
WAS EATING A HAK SANDWICH
AT THE TIKE.
The Distressing Accident Occurred
In the Lunch Room at Fenn Ave
nue and Linden Street at 10.30
Last Night Physician from Lack
awanna Hospital Were Summoned
' but .When They Arrived Brader
Was Dead He Resided at S17
Olive Street and Was Harried.
Ira H. Brader, of S17 Ollvs street,
choked to death last night about 10.30
o'clock In Burrough's Lackawanna
lunch room at Penn avenue and Linden
street while eating a ham sandwich.
Brader entered the lunch room short
ly before 10.30 o'clock and called for
a ham sandwich. The lunehman rays
that while eating this Prader catlad
for a glass of water.
He claims that when Brader hud fin
ished eating some five minutes ho sud
denly fell over oh the counter In an
unconscious condition.
Someone nearby rnn to the Lacka
wanna hospital and summoned Dr.
Busch, the house surgeon, who imme
diately responded, arriving Just after
tho man had died. Dr. Busch's exam
ination shows that Brader died from
strangulation and Indicates that the
lunchman's statement of facts Is hardly
correct.
The doctor says that Brader's mouth
was full of chewed-up food and that
his face was purple, one of the always
present indications of food lu the wind
pipe. Tho doctor believes that he mitBt
have been aftllcted with heart disease
and that the exertion used to cough
up tho food brought on heart failure.
None of the Indications of apoplexy,
he said, were present.
The remains were taken to Cuslck's
undertaking establishment and Cor
oner Roberts was notlfltd. Brader was
about 40 years old and wat murrlod.
He Is survived by a wile only. He
was employed ns a clerk at Bittenben
dei's on Franklin avenue, being a son-in-law
of Abraham Blttenbendur. -
Coroner Roberts made an examina
tion of the body In Cuslck's morgue
early this morning and decided that
Brader died from strangulation, and
that no Inquest was necessary.
POOR BOARD MEETING.
Contract for New Greenhouse Was
Awarded to Hitchings & Company
of New York for $3,975.
The poor board In regular session
yesterday afternoon awarded the con
tract for the construction of a now
green house at the Hillside Homo to
Hitchings & Co., of Now York, their
bid of $3,aT5 being the lowest of ony
received.
At least two of the inembeis were
opposed to the payment of so much
money for a greenhouse, but when it
was explained that th structure would
be built on a steel frame and would
be thoroughly substantial in every le
spect they changed their mlmls and
the contract .was awarded by unani
mous vote.
The bill of $1.1 sent In by Blown, the
druggist, at the last meeting, "and
which was then held up, was ordered
paid. The blll,was for antitoxin, which
was ordered by the agent for the As
sociated Charities, the bill being or
dered sunt to tho i oor board. Quite a
deal of discussion was Indulged In yes
terday before tlu board decided tto
order tho bill paid, and It Is under
stood that In the future no bill of this
mi tin e contracted by anyone outside
the boaid will be allowed.
Tho quarterly expense bill for the
care of state Insane was sworn to by
the members and will be sent to Hor
risburg. Upwards of a dozen appli
cations for outdoor relief were heard
and acted upon.

A DAY OF PRIMARIES.
Republicans and Democrats Will
Have a Lively Time of It To
day in This County.
This Is to be a day of great political
activity In Lackawanna county, all
four legislative districts having either
Republican or Democratic primaries
scheduled, some of them having both.
Interest centers In the Republican
primaries in the First and Second dis
tricts, where the antl-Quayltes are
making the most strenuous efforts to
gain two recruits for the Insurgent
column and prevent the renomlnatlon
of Speaker John R. Farr and Repre
sentative John Scheuer, jr.
The lines are clearly defined In both
districts, each candidate having allied
himself with candidates for state dele
gate, who are avowedly for or against
party wrecking. ,
In the First district Mr. Farr ha-
for his running mate Charles H. Von
Storch and D. D. Evans. On the ticket
with T. Jefferson Reynolds, the anti
Quay standard bearer, aro William H.
Reese and Harry Blrbeck.
JRepresentatlve Scheuer's allies are
M. W. Lowry and Louis Schwass, while
Frederick Connell, the anti-Quay can
didate for the leglslateur Is running
with George Wlrth and W. L. Doug
lass. The Second district antles have sus
pended banners across the streets at
various points announcing that they
are the representatives of the Craw
ford system, whatever they mean by
that, and crying out for the people to
"down the machine." Last night they
had a band out In a bob-sleigh carry
ing transparencies with these same In
scriptions. The Crawford dounty system of pri
maries will be used for the first time
in these districts.
The First district Democrats will
have primaries for the election of dele
gates to a convention In Cosgrove's
hall Tuesday afternoon, when three
delegates to the state convention -aUll
be chosen. District Chairman John E.
Gaffney, County Commissioner John J.
Durkln, County Auditor P. W. Costello
and Joseph Taylor nre the most promi
nently mentioned candidates.

ing state delegates. Among those
mentioned for the 'honor are Editor E.
J. Lynott. of the Times: C. G. Boland,

GRAND JURY IS TO
LEXQW CITY HALL
SESSION CONTINUED TO NEXT
WEEK FOR THAT PURPOSE.
Following the Example Set by New
York, the Grand Inqueet of Lacka
wana County Proposes to Summon
Before It Witnesses Who Kay Be
Able to Throw Some Light on Al
leged Corruption, and it a Prima
Pacle Case Is Established, to Re
turn Indictments.
The grand jury will investigate the
alleged corruption In city hall.
This was decided upon yesterday,
after the matter had 'been discussed
dally since the Jury convened last Mon
day morning. The Jury will conduct
the Investigation of its own accord.
Witnesses will be subpoenaed through
County Detective Leyshon, and it suf
ficient evidence can be secured to es
tablish a prima facie case In any In
stance, an Indictment will follow and
the accused will have to face a jury
of his peers -and whatever incriminat
ing evidence the commonwealth, In the
Interim, can secure.
Just what evidence the grand jurors
expect to be ablo to lay their hands
on Is not known, but It Is said that
certain newspapermen, claiming to
have Indubitable evidence of gross
frauds, have signified their willingness
to allow the grand Jury to avail itself
of what they know, and, If It lu all
that It Is said to be, It will be suffic
ient to call for some explanations, to
say the least, from certain men In high
places. The power of the grand Jury
In the premises ts almost unlimited.
In his charge, Monday mo.rnlng,
Judge Edwards, either accidentally or
knowingly, correctly anticipated this
contemplated action by the grand jury,
and told the Jurors, without particu
larising, that they had authority, on
their own motion, to Investigate and
report upon any matter affecting the
Interests of, the public, either in the
county at large or any municipality
within its boundaries.
Yesterday afternoon, when the Jury
had made it third return, Judge Ed
wards asked: "Have you decided, as
yet, whether or not you will want to
nwet next week?"
District Attorney Jones answered for
them that they would.
The "public business" could not be
concluded by tomorrow noon, he added
In a tone that was both guarded and
significant.
Judge Edwards, forthwith, made an
order continuing the sessions Into next
week.
Tho allegation that slot machine
owners bought' protection from city
hall, and that money was used to se
cure the passage of certain measures
recently enacted by councils, will be
the principal matters Inquired Into, It
Is said.

EXTRA ELECTRIC LIGHTS.
City Controller Will Sign for Pay
ment of Only 010.
City Controller Howell stales that
he will positively refuse to sign timing
the coming year for any more electric
lights than are Included In the general
appropriation ordinance, namely, 610,
the number paid for during the fast
year.
In a communication read In select
council on Thursday evening he
warned councils against passing any
ordinances providing for additional
lights without Including the samo In
the appropriation ordinance, and show
ing how they would have to be In
cluded in a deficiency appropriation
next year.
There have been during the year or
dinances providing for four lights
signed by Mayor iMoIr and he now has
ordinances providing for four more In
his hands. An he has already vetoed
several ordinances of this kind It is
hard to prophecy what hu will do with
those now In his possession.
There are now pending In councils
ordinances providing for upwards of
twenty more Hants, and whether coun
cils will heed the controller's warning
and refuse to pass them before re
organisation Is a thing to be seen, al
though It Is pretty safe to prophecy
that they will be passed for various
leasons.
