Caused a Numbcir of Colored Boys to Be Brought to -Alderman Howe's Office Hast Night. Last Saturday there appeared In this city a play not .unknown to fame, and certainly known1 to every youngster, white, black, ycfllow or brown living within this city; a play known the country over as "I'ncle Tom's Cabin." Last niaht thete was a continuation of the performance In Alderman Howe's office, at which there appeared some ten or fifteen tittle darkles, two of whom, Alhert Htamer and Kddle Wil liams, rest undcv the suspicion of hav ing stolen a Robl watch fiom the "Llt tlo Kva" of uhe production, and who were held In ball nn the charge. A walch had been procured' for the 'angel child" as a birthday present from a fond xnient, and sent to her through the nitalls. It arrived at the Lyceum but alas. Little Evh nevttr saw the timepiece. It seems that aflipr Saturday's parade. In which the two "Mniks," a duo of "Topsles," seventeen bloodhounds and "Little Eva" -herself had taken pait, an admiring irrowd of little coloted boys followed the ptocesston to the Lyceum and, managing to e''ade the eagle eves of the argus at the dnoi, proceeded to disport themsOives over the stage, pla',vlng with the chunks of wooden Ice, over which Ella.i Rio, feeding the bloodhounds and otheiwlse Innocently aminlng themselvin. Suddenly the "Williams boy approach ed "Little Eva", and shyly remarked: "Say. you done lost your watch." "Why no 1 didn't, little liny," :e turned the angel child. "Yaas you did. Albeit Itame told me so," was the little fellow's f'spons". This led to an Investigation, which resulted In the police being notified. Chief Tlobling looked Into tin: nutter. and last night arrested th" (turner and Williams boys, nnd they weie given their heating before Aid ;i man Howe, The affair was rather a mlxed-up one, as the other little fellow? who were present to testify were scv badly frightened they did not prove the bent of witnesses. Both the boys have been arrested before. The Case will be given a fur ther investigation today. WOMAN'S CLUB MEETING. Number of Matters Considered at Yesterday's Meeting.

Substantiation Secured for the Alle gations Made Last Week by a Wit ness Who Gave Details Some of the Modes of Approach as Adopted by tho Alleged Solicitors Others May Be Bagged Today Certain That a Dozen Indictments Will Be Returned Jury's Flans. I Seven coiincllinen who. It Is alleged, corruptly solicited bribes for their votes In the recent telephone fight will bp Indicted by the grand Jury. The evidence necessary to convict them. It Is claimed, was substantiated yesteulay. Who furnished the substantiation Is not divulged, but that It was furnished can be authoritatively slated. "Leave ."00 In an envelope at nnd I'll guarantee you you'll get a vote," This Is what one councilman will have tn prove he didn't say to a. telephone lobbyist If he wants to save himself from Jail, Another will be called upon to ex plain away any suspicion that might be attached to the remark, "If you want votes, you've got to play ball," made to a new telephone promoter. One of last week's witnesses, It Is said, accused a number of councllmen of various offenses and gave the Jury de tailed statments of the circumstances surrounding pach case. The Jury set out upon the task ot substantiating these allegations and claims to have succeeded In seven In stances. Today they hope tn add on or two more to the list. So positive are the Jurors that the evidence now in their possession is sufficient and not In need of further corroboration that County Detective Leyshyt was Instructed last evening that It would not be necessary for him to bring In a certain witness who lives out of town and for whom he was In structed to send an ofllcer. One of the Jurors said last evening It can be safely stated that not less than twelve Indictments will be re turned. Today's developments are expected to add to the list. A iepoi-1 from the Jury Is possible t onion ow. U they have not by that time received all the evidence they want they propose to adjourn till next week or the week after, to give County Detective Leyshon time to locatp and bilng In the absent witnesses. Such Indictments as have been agreed upon will be teturned before the recess Is taken. The witnesses examined yesterday were: Ike Seldman, P. H. Durkln, Vic tor Koch, Alderman John J. Ruddy, Ered Durr, CSeorge (', Jones, C. G. (In land, John Lohmann. Alderman John Lentes, W. P. Roland and Thomas J. Langati. Ex-Mayor James (5. Halley Is among those subpoenaed for today. FOR COLLECTION OF ASHES Ordinance That Councilman T. H. Watkins of the Fifteenth Ward Proposes to Introduce. Common councilman T. II. Watkins, of the Fifteenth ward, has a scheme on hand for the collection of aslus in all parts of the city and with this end In view he has had City Solicitor Vos butg diaw up an oidlnance, which In will Introduce !n council Immediately aftei IP-organisation, This oidlnance makes the collection of ashes compulsory and fisses-.es each propel ty owner a certain amount ever year to pay for such collection. It pio vides that the city clerk adveitise and lecelve bids for the removal of ashes fiom each ward. Each ward must bo bid for separately, but any contractor bidding may bid for as many wards as he deslies. The contractors who aie awaided contracts must furnish the necessaiy receptacles for the removal of the ashes and must take them away ut least twice a week. A violation of either of these piovlsons means a for feiture of the contiact. How ninth each propel ty owner Is to be assessed or how the city Is to collect In case they do not pay such assessment has not been decided upon yet. This Is because the city solicitor has not et looked Into the legal as pects of the measure and accordingly does not Know whether the city can collect such an extra tax. Just what Inspired Mr. Watkins to agitate the question Is not known, but It Is understood that he nas become tired of looking at the West Scranton stieets, a large number of which aie sudly dlsllgureU by the practice of dumping ashes on them.

THE 0LYPHANT DEADLOCK Strong Efforts Were Made to Break It, but Without Avail-Up to Mid nightConference Committees. There was a slight change In the borough council deadlock at Olyphant last night, probably due to the fact that all of tha members appeared be fore Judge Archbald In the morning and were told that If they didn't break the deadlock soon new membeia would be appointed. After forty-one ballots had been taken last night with no result, Messrs, Gallagher and Van Sickle, the two can didates for the chairmanship withdrew fiom the Held and Messrs. Gillespie and Lawler were nominated In their places. Thirty more ballots were taken but the deadlock still continued, as each nf the two candidates repiesented one of the two factions. After the seventy-first ballot It was decided to appoint a conference com .mlttee to agree upon a slate. Mr. Gil lespie accordingly appointed Messis. Marks. Blown and Gallagher, and Mr. Lawler appointed Messrs. Van Sickle, Xealon and Hoblnson as members of such a committee. Shoitly after mid night a lecess was taken to allow this committee to draw up the stale. The conference committee was out for about an hour, but could not agree upon a slate. When they leturned thn balloting was lesuined on Iawler and Gillespie. At 1.30 o'clock this morning fifty ballots had been taken.

School Board Decided to Rent Two Rooms for Supply Department at 865 Per Month Despite Mr, Jayne's Vigorous Opposition in the Inter ests of Economy Board Not Sure It Wants Graduation Exercises in Lyceum Several New Teachers Appointed. President H. T, Jnyne, of the boaul of conttol, acting In line with the plan set down by him when chosen to that ofllce, made his first stand for economy at last night's meeting ot that body. The matter was n small one, lo be suie, but he made a strong stand against It only to see the ma jority of -the membeis vote against him. The supply committee presented n report recommending that the loca tion of the supply room be changed to a store loom on the Linden street side of the Williams bu'jdln?. located at tlu corner of Linden street and Washington avenue, the rental being MS n month. Chalrmnn Evans mated that nnother store room on the Wash ington avenue side of the building could be rented at an extra expendl tuie of only U'O a month, piovldlng the two weie taken. He said that the committee was heartily in favor of taking the two rooms, thus allowing the various ofll cers of the board a room for them selves. Mr. Jnyne relinquished the choir to Mr. l.angan and vigorously protested against this plan, showing how It meant an extra expenditure of $240 n year. He found no slipporteis, however, and the board almost unani mously decided to rent the two rooms. ABOUT COMMENCEMENT. Quite a deal of discussion was also caused by the lecoiiiiiiendntlon of tb high and training committee that this ear's high school gtadiiatlng class be permitted to hold Its commencement exercises in the Lyceum, owing to the alleged smallness of both the stage and the auditorium of the new high school, which auditoiltim was built, by the way, for the especial purpose of conducting commencement exei- clses. Mr. Jennings said thut he didn't be lieve in leaving "the beautiful school," as he called It, nnd going to n theater, He had some statistics showing that there are only S40 reserved seats In the Lyceum as compared with 040 at the school. 215 extra chairs could be placed In the aisles of the latter, be said, making a, total of 1155. The ob jection to the size of the stage, he said, could be overcome by keeping the palms and piano off It. He figured out that It would cost in even $.100 extra to hold the exercises In the theater. He also thought that the exercises could be extended over two nights if necessary to give all who de sired a chance to see them. Mr. Gib bons spoke at some length In favor of the lecommendatloii. and the board finally decided to defer action until next meeting and to request the super intendent to be present to give his views on the matter. A recommendation that the Young Women's Christian association be per mitted to use the auditorium on April 24 for the purpose of holdings gym nastic exhibition was granted, as was one directing the superintendent to select n speaker for the commencement exercises at a cost not to exceed $50.
