Justice Mestrezat, of the Supremo court, handed down an opinion of in terest to all those who use the high ways. The court reversed the lower court of Philadelphia In a suit, in which the plaintiff, who sought dam ages for personal Injuries sustained by being run over by a wagon, was non suited. The plaintiff was riding a bi cycle and the defendant a wagon. Both were going at a moderate speed as they approached. The plaintiff runs his bell, but the defendant heeded it not. The former In dismounting fell and a wheel of tho tatter's wagon passed over his foot. Hence the suit. The case was non-suited. An appeal was taken and Justice Mestrezat, In directing a new trial, quoted the ordinance of Philadelphia council of February 2, 1S97, requiring "all persons driving or riding to do so on the right side of the street and to pass all vehicles traveling In the oppo site direction on the right side and those going In the same direction on the left side," and said: "The rights of the boy and the driver were reciprocal, nnd each was required to obey the law of the road and con form to Its requirements. There was no apparent necessity In this case to apply tha exception to the iuIo that a l(ght vehicle or bicycle must give way to a heavily loaded wagon. Under the Act of April '23, 1889, the boy had the same right and was subjected to the same restrictions In the use of his bi cycle as a person using a carriage drawn by a horse, and the driver of the wagon was required to accord to him the same privileges and rights in the street as though he were using a carriage. "The boy was wheie he had a right to bo and where the law required him to be in traveling northward on Seven teenth street. When no one was ap proaching with a desire to pass him with a vehicle the driver had the right to use any side of the street, but when he turned abruptly on Seventeenth street In the manner shown he was taking tho chance of a collision with a vehicle going northward."

Sherlock Holmes was pretty good In Iris palmy days, but it is hard to work up any great amount of enthusiasm over Dr. Doyle's alleged hero, when one has an Intimate acquaintance with "Jack" Tierney and his doings. If It wasn't that Jack Is bo modest, many good stories would fall to the lot of the local reading1 public and simul taneously there would be a very marked dropping off In the sale of tho Doyle stories, for it la safe to assume that an appreciative reading public such as Scranton Is blessed with would infinitely more prefer true stories of cleverness nnd adventure to romances dealing with the same Ideas, especially when the Instance would be another corroboration of the adage that truth Is stranger than fiction. Jack nnd Sherlock work along the same lines, of course, but this must not be taken to mean that Jack has been reading Doyle's books. Jack doesn't do that sort of thing. It Is simply a case of great minds, etc. One of the chief characteristics of Holmes' modus operandi, or more prop erly speaking, his chief stock In trade, was making a mental note of every thing coming under his observation, that his biographer might need later In working out a story. Same way with Jack. For- Instance: Last week, Mrs. Duggan received a letter from a chief of police, down tho state, soliciting her aid in finding a runaway girl who, It was supposed, had headed Scrantonward. A descrip tion of the girl accompanied tho letter, but as It was presumed, and rightly too, that tho girl had changed her ap pearance as much as possible by bleaching her hair, pencilling her brows, rouging her cheeks and paint ing her lips, to Fay nothing of adopt ing a different style of dress, the de scription of her outwafd appearance was not to be taken as a very reliable aid to her discovery. But the down-the-state chief of police sent along another clue to her Identification. The clue was furnished by the girl's aunt, by whom shi had been raised from Infancy. It was that she had been vaccinated fwlee on each arm. "Cert," said Jack, when the case had been laid before him. He drew from his inside vest pocket a little red-covered book, nonchalantly ran his thumb down the indices till it came to "M," opened the book, studied the page a minute and then, writing something on a slip of paper, said: "Go to that ad dress and ask for Madge." The instructions were forthwith car ried out, and that night the young girl was started for her home In custody of an olllcer. FUNERAL OF W. H. STANTON. Requiem Mass Was Celebrated in St. Peter's 'Cathedral. At 9 o'ejock yesterday morning the funeral of the late Hon William H. Stanton was held from the residence on Clay avenue. All day Thursday the body could be seen at the house, and was viewed by numerous friends. The remains were yesterday morn ing taken to St. Peter's cathedral, where a requiem mass was celebrated by Rev. P. J. Gough, after which he read a selection from the Scriptures. In tho sanctuary were Rev. J. A. O'Reilly and Rev. D. J. MacGoldrlck. As the casRet was borne from the church, Professor Schilling played "Flee as a Bird." The remuins were then taken to the Cathedral cemetery and there inetrred. Among the out-of-town relatives who attended tho funeral were Michael Stanton and W. B. Kear ney, of Wllkes-Barre. The floral tributes were many and beautiful, bouquets of lilies, roses and carnations nnd handsome pillows, wreaths and crescents being dumb souvenirs of the esteem felt for the departed. Especially handsome was the large floral crescent and wreath, sent by the Lackawanna Bar associa tion. The pall-bearer?, who were selected from the members of the Bar associa tion, were: Robert M. Murray, M. W. Lowry, L. B. Carter, C. S. Woodruff, C. W. Dawson and L. M. Bunnell. TWO BUJLDINGS BURNED. Fire at the House of Ernesto Genaro Yesterday Morning. At about 4 o'clock yesterday morn ing, flro broke out In the two-story dwelling of Ernesto Genaro, at 517 Brook street, A still alarm was sent to tho William Connell Hose company, whose quarters are located nearby. When tho Connells arrived the fire had gained considerable headway, but tho firemen fought the flames heroic ally and about 5 o'clock had them well under control, when suddenly a can, containing some kind of an explosive, which was on the upper floor, exploded and again the fire spread rapidly. Seeing the impending danger to ad Joln'ng property, the Connells Immedi ately called out the other South Side companies. Tho Neptunes and Cen turys promptly responded, but owing to poor water pressure little could be ac complished, and the building in which the Are originated, together with a one story structure next to It, also the property of Ernesto Genaro, were com pletely gutted and nothing remains but the walls of the main building. Mr. Genaro places his entire loss at $1,500, partly covered by insurance. OUR FLAG BEYOND THE SEA. Subject of the Lecture Chaplain Pierce Will Deliver. Kev. Charles C. Pierce, D.

GRAND JURY MAKES ITS PRESENTMENT COURT RELIGIOUSLY GUARDS ITS CONTENTS. Officials and Jurors Admonished Against Divulging Any Informa tion Which It Contained Various Reports as to .the Number of Parties Indicted in the Present mentIndictments Will Be Passed Upon This Morning and a Report Made Before Noon. It Is probable the grand Jury will adjourn Its Lexow at noon today and by that hour the report of Its findings will have been made public. At 3.30 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the Jury came Into court with Its presentment. Judge Edwards re ceived it In the superior court room, read it oVer carefully, directed Clerk of the Courts Daniels to mark It "filed" and then turned It over to Assistant .District Attorney Thomas with In structions to draw up the Indictments. strict orders were given from the bench to the court officials and the jurors that they were not to divulge any Information concerning the con tents of the presentment. As the court delivered Itself of this admoni tion It looked a meaningful look to wards the table at which the reporters were grouped with double-pointed pencils In hand, and the court officials and Jurors followed the court's gaze. The mass of Information concerning the contents of the presentment which appears In this article tells eloquently tne effect of the court's look. INDICTMENTS PREPARED. The presentments developed Into bills of Indictment under the manipu lation of Assistant District Attorney Thomas last night, and when the jury reassembles this morning It will pass upon the Indictments. It Is confidently expected a report will be made be fore noon. Whether or not the Jury will con tinue its sessions into next week Is a question. Tho matter was discussed yesterday, but no conclusion was reached. Some of the Jurors want to continue In session till the absent wit nesses are secured. Others feel that they should adjourn, unless there Is something approaching a reasonable assurance that the absent witnesses will be forthcoming. This matter will be decided after the Indictments are passed upon this morning. Even the number of parties Included In the presentment could not be as certained with any degree of certainty. One "reliable source of information" put It at seventeen, with seven coun cllmen Included. "One in a position to know" said it was not over eight and that two councllmcn only were Included. Another "whose evidence could not be doubted," said It was two and that no councllmen were In cluded. The reader who Is not content to wait until noon for the official dis closure can take his choice of the above. "One who has watched the proceedings closely" suggests the first as the best guess. EXAMINED YESTERDAY. City Clerk M. T. Lavelle, C. G., Bo land and Andrew Healey were the svlt nesses examined yesterday. Mr. La velle produced the minutes of councils to show how 'the different members voted on the various telephone ordin ances and the electric light contract. It was stated yesterday by a mem ber of the Electric City Light and Heat company that If corruption or fraud is shown 'n connection with the passage of the electric light contract, proceedings will be Instituted to have the contract annulled and new bids advertised for. m THEY MUST KEEP OUT. Working Boom of Postofflce Will Be Strictly Private. The custom heretofore prevailing to a greater or lesser degree, of allow ing outsiders to circulate through the back or working room of the potoftlce has been stopped. A strong railing has been erected Inside tho rear door, and beyond this no one not connected with the ofilce can pass. This action was taken on account of the abuse of a privilege granted to the friends of postofflce employes. A strong iron cage Is also beln built for the local office and this will be placed around the money orler nnd registered letter departments to pre vent any daylight hold-ups, such as have occurred In other cities. HELD IN 8300 BAIL. Harry Granville Accused of Theft by L. B. Fowler. L. B. Fowler, of 1211 Swetland street, yesterday swore out a warrant for the arrest of Harry Granville, on the charge of theft of a $20 bill. Granville was arrested and entered ball for his appearance at court. At the hearing the strongest witness against Granvllla was little six-year-old Lulu Phillips, his niece. The child, it seems, found the bill in the road and going into Granville's house, showed It to htm. He took tho bill and, remarking, "Oh, that's a counterfeit," put It in his pocket. Fowler heard of this and going to Granville demanded the money. The latter denied having it, and the warrant for his arrest was then issued. oooooooooooooocoo Fancy Jersey Eggs 14c Per Dozen. E. G.

" At last inflammation of the womb and ovaries resulted and then I suf fered agonies, had to give up my pro fession (musician and piano player), was confined to my bed and life became a terrible cross.

" One day my husband noticed the ad vertisement of your remedies and im mediately bought me a full trial. Soon the pain in my ovaries was gone.

Will Gibbons, a twelve-year-old boy, living at 1910 Prospect avenue with hW uncle, Michael CUbbons, was taken to the Lackawanna hospital at 11,30 o'clock last night with a cartridge In his abdomen, as the result of another of the series of apparently Inexhaust ible didn't-know-lt-was-loaded epi sodes. The boy had found In his uncle's room the latter's 22-callbre revolver. With this he stole Into the cellar, to there examine it at his leisure. Of course, the trigger struck against something, there was a flash and a crack, and the boy fell on the floor with a bullet In his body. The blood poured out freely, and members of the family hearing the shot, ran downstairs and carried the boy to his room. Dr. M. H. Qutnn was called In and stopped the flow of blood. It was later decided best to take the boy to the' hospital and the Lacka wanna hospital being notified the am bulance was sent for the lnlured lad. At the Lackawanna he was made easy for the night, and early this morn ing he was resting comfortably and did not seem to suffer much pain. He will be operated upon today and the bullet removed.

Street Commissioner Thomas first yearly report will be presented to coun cils next Monday, Immediately after reorganization. In addition to a re sume of the work done during the past year, the commissioner will outline his plans for cleaning the streets during the coming summer. It Is understood that he has a plan of organization In view which will pro duce far better results than have here tofore been obtained. This plan con templates, it is believed, the perma nent employment of certain ,men, In stead of the present system of employ ing a new gang, of laborers nearly every day, to satisfy the whims of councllmen who think that this. is the proper way to look after their Inter ests. The present system makes It impos slble to fix the responsibility for any dirty streets on any one person, where as If tho same men are permanently employed the year round each man will be responsible for a certain section of street.

' NO PROSPECT OF TAX LEVY BEING REDUCED SCHOOL BOARD ESTIMATES ALL VERY HIGH. They Were Considered Last Night at the First Meeting of the Finance Committee of That Body In Near ly All Instances Big Increases Over Last Year Are Asked for. Building Committee Not Yet Heard from New Buildings May Be Asked for. There will be no reduction of the school tax levy during the coming year If one Is to judge by the estimates tursed in by tho various committees of the school board and considered by the finance committee of that body at Its meeting last night. In almost alt Instances these estimates are above those of last year. The high and training committee wants $41,550 or $45,000 if a new heating plant Is Installed, The appropriation allowed this committee last year was $30,677. The committee didn't touch this estimate last night, deciding to leave it until they meet again. The teachers' committee estimated that they require $186,000 where $156,000 only was appropriated lost year. The committee's estimate includes the sal aries of 'fifteen new teachers. This Item was cut to $164,000. Tho estimated expense of maintain ing night schools for the coming year Is $8,ouO, where it cost $9,400 last year. Tho committee decided to leave this item alone. Tho salary of officers and clerks is placed at $9,160, where the appropriation last year was $7,420. This Increase must be allowed, as It Is caused by increases in salary fixed by tho board. The Item of Janitor's salar ies Is $9,160, or an increase of $1,740 over laBt year. The committee allowed this Item. FOR NEW FURNITURE. The estimated cost of new furniture for tho coming year was placed at $7,000, where only $3,000 was appro priated last year. The increase Is ex plained by reason of the new buildings, which must be finished. The item, however, was cut down to $5,000. The estimated cost of rents for the coming year is $2,500, or $1,000 more than last year. This Item was allowed, as was the estimate of $13,000 for sup plies, an Increase of $3,000 over last year. The coal and wood estimate is $7,000, the same as last year, and was of course allowed. The Item of gas, water and telephones was $3,000, or $1,000 less than last year, and the estimate of $300 for the de livery of supplies was also the same as was tho one of $1,000 for printing and advertising. All of these were allowed to pass without cutting. The item of legal expenses was placed at $800, a reduction of $700 from last year. This was accepted by the committee, as was also an Item of $200 for tax refunding, which was $100 less than last year. The text book committee didn't send in an estimate, but the committee supplied one for them, making it $11, 000, the same as last year. The insur ance committee's estimate wib $3,000, where only $500 was appropriated last year. The chairman of this commit tee happened to be present and ex plained things so that the committee was allowed the Increase but immedia tely took revenge by lopping off $600 from the Incidentals appropriation, leaving It $1,000, the same as last year. BUILDING COMMITTEE YET. The committee ceased Its labors at this point, as the building committee has not yet presented its estimate, which Is the most Important of all. The size of the tax levy will depend to a considerable extent on this com mittee. There are some members on it who think that no more new schools should be built during the coming year, while other members want new schools and want them badly. In addition to the other expenses the board will have to appropriate funds for the payment of a deficiency amounting to something like $40,000.
