It Was Skelly's Last Day and Ho
Didn't Caro.
"Gentleman Jack" Skclly'a Hon Ton
Is no longer in control of "Gentleman
Jock." After repeated and vigorous
efforts Mrs. Hand, tho owner of the
place, succeeded Inst evening in oust
ing tho gentleman nnd securing pos
session of tho premises. She proposes
to ask court lo transfer the license,
which wns taken out In the name of
Prank Hotter, to J. Flaherty, of tho
South Side, who is desirous of secur
ing tho lease.
Skelly fnlled In business twice nnd
was threatening to fall again, when
tho crusade ngalnst Sunday beer sell
ing was Instituted. Since then he has
been Towing rich. The fear of hav
ing tho place go llcenccless prompted
the landlady to piocecd to get Gontlo
mnn Jack out of it. She had pur
chased his pictures and nrt gallery nt
one of his failures nnd le.ised them
to him. Frldny lust she rcplevlncd
them as n prccautlonaty measure and
on Saturday offered Gentleman Jack
$100 In cash and the beautiful $10,000
oil painting, "Love's Awakening," If
he would get out peacefully at 12 o'
clock. He agreed, but didn't live up
to his end of the agreement.
Mr nnd Mrs. Hand nnoV their at
torney, W. J. Buddy, were on hand to
iccelve tho keys and take possession,
but Skellv, with a gang of his frlendH,
locked themselves in nnd refused to
hold converse with the key and pos
session scekets Skelly got In nn ex

Wilson nnd his men were watching the
place all day, theio wasn't a quart of
stuff left In tho house nt 5 p. m.
Skelly cleaned out tho cash drawer,
gathered up his personal belongings
nnd quit. No attempt whatever was
made to disguise the fact that liquor
was being sold, except that the front
door was not open. This led to a
story that Skelly Intended to skip. Ho
was still In tho city at midnight.

A lepiesentnthe soldier of Pennsyl

a bra e and Judicious lender, Colonel
Wint has few peeis in the countiy. Ills
icord fiom hojhood up scintillates
with biavc deeds. Hi? has engaged In

San Juan hill at the head of his dusky

nlrv, on which occasion he was wound
ed In the thigh by a Mauser bullet. Tho
countiy Is pioud of him, Pennsylvania
Is proud of him and his friends, too,
aie so proud of him that they have

pmniotlon tobilgndiei general.
"Colonel Wlnt entered the army dur
ing the Civil w.ai, when but sixteen
eais of age, and went through nil the
giades by regulai promotion. There is
not one maik against his lecord. His
ablllt is concomitant with his biavery,
and his modesty is in keeping with
the gie.U deeds he has pet formed.
"Fi lends who nie anxious for tho

In part:
'"I desire to lecommond Lieutenant

OPPORTUNITIES FOR
CHRISTIAN WORK
SERMON Or REV. II. O. M'DER
MOTT, OP ONEONTA.
Ho Spoko in tho Elm Park Chinch
Last Night, nnd Urged the Neces
sity of n Great Revival of Con
science Tluoughout tho Land, Thnt
Wo May Successfully Grasp tho
Opportunities That Aro Now Bo
foro Us Islands Havo Bcfen Given
Us ns a Sacred Trust.
Rev. II. C. McDcrmott, D. V., a.
prominent Methodist clcrginan, of
Oneonta, Is. Y., preached two eloquent
sermons yesterday at the Him Paik
church. In the evening he told of the
wonderful opportunities for Christian
work opened up to the people of this
country by the acquisition of our Island
possessions, and urged the necessity of
a gient revival of conscience through
out the length and breadth of tho land,
that the people may successfully grasp
these opportunities. He spoko, In patt,
as follows:
"The question Is whether or not wo
nie going to meet these opportunities
as they should be met. These Islands
have been placed In our hands as a
sacred trust, they have been given us
by a divine Providence, nnd It Is our
duty to carry Christian civilization to
theso peoples, and not the shiploads of
rum, which, I am sorry to say, we tire
now sending there.
"If we go to theso people with
patience, bringing them our glorious
free schools nnd our open Bible; If wo
go, as St. Paul went to the Corinthi
ans, for souls nnd not for gold, it will
result In Infinite blessings for 0111
sclves nnd Incalculable blessings to
others.
THRCI1 GRHAT POSSIBILITIES.
"I was deeply Impiessed by a recent
magazine nitlcle I read, In which the
writer pointed out what he conceived
to be the three great possibilities of
the future. The llrst was that the yel
low races would peifect themselves In
the nit of war and overrun the woild.
"The second was that theie would be
such a great revival of the military
spit It In Russia that bIip would con
quer Europe and Asia. The third was
that the Engllsh-spenklng peoples
wouiu make such rapid stiides that th
Inevitable icsult will be the extension
of Piotest.mt civilization over the en
tile world.
"As to whether or not this last pos
sibility will ever materialize depends
hugely upon the progress of Christian
ity in the United States. As goes
Ameilca, bo goes the woild. We must
conquer our own Ices before we ex
tmd 0111 hands to help others to con
quer theirs, or we must continue to
fold our arms about our own selfish
ness nnd hug tho viper to our
bi easts.
"Theie must be a co-opeiatlon be
tween God and tho people This
pluase contains the sectet of our suc
cess In the past nnd tells us what is
necessary for success in the futuio.
Thete must be 11 combination of Intel
It etunl patriotism and pure molality
In our public affairs. Befoto we use
our providential oppoitunitles we mum
conquer tho foes within our own bor
ders. We must bo a Chiistinn people
In fact ns well as in name.
"There Is n gieat and pressing need
at present for a broader, deeper and
moie comprehensive 1evlv.1l of out
national conscience than any which
hae gone before. The people must be
brought face to face with God nnd
duty. There must bo a levlval of
honesty, a revival of liberality; a te
newal of sympathy.
MUST STIR SOCIETY.
"It must bo such a revival as will
stir society to Its eiy depths If
America Is to be the wot Id's evangel
ist. If this country is to cany out its
great destiny the saloon must be either
abolished or theie must be at least
a serious cuttallment of Its Influence
and power.
"This national evil Is a font of mis
ery and wiotchedness, but It Is also
a font of power. It has wonderful
social and political Influences and un
til Its power Is broken we Hhall never
be worthy ns a nation to undertake
the evangellatlon of the world.
"I bless God for the wonderful 1
rlllty and power of tho Protestant
Chilstlm church In this country to
day and I cannot too ui gently urge
that wo must ns a church meet these
responsibilities that God Is tin listing
upon us."

FELL 1HIRTY-F1VE FEET
Exciting Adventure of Charles Claw
ford nnd Pamlly, of Cumberland
Street, in North Scranton.
To think that a man, woman nnd
child could go over a thirty-five foot
embankment In a buggy and live to
tell the tale Is wonderful, but to think
that only one should be Injured Is hard
to believe. Yet such was the adventute
which befel Charles Craw ford and fatn
11, of Cumbeiland street, ns they were
dilvlng on Saturday night near their
home.
They were riding In a single buggy
along Cumberland street, near Wet
Market, about 11 o'clock, when the
horse became unmanageable and
dashed for the side of the load. Theie
Is a sheer embankment nt this point
about thlitv-llvo feet deep, and down
this the hoise plunged befoie Mr.
Ct aw foul could hold him back.
Down, down they plunged, landing all
In a heap at the bottom. The child, t
tin ee-v ear-old boy, climbed out fiom
undiinenth the box of tho binken
wngnn, a moment after It stiuek the
bottom, entliel uninjuied. Mr. Craw -foul
sustained onh n few biulses, but
his wife was badly hint.
One of her arms wns broken In two
place s and one of her shouldeis wns
dislocated. Shewas sutfeilng. of couise,
fiom a seveie nervous shock, alo. Pi.
J. P. Stanton was summoned and
diessed her Injuiles. The wagon wns
b idlv smashed, but tho hoise was un
scathed. BOTH WILLS PROBATED.
Contest Likely to Follow as o. Result
of Colonel Watres' Failure to
Estop tho Second Will.
Both wills of the late Mrs. Ella M.
Amerman are now probated, the llrst
In Scranton nnd the seond In W01
cester, Mass, the heating on the cav
eat filed to the second will by Colonel
L A. Waties, executor of the first
will, having lesulted adversely to the
supporteis of the Scianton will. The
latter will now he called upon to go In
to the Massachusetts couits to con
test The second will differs from the fitst
mainly In that It 1 educes from $10 000
to $i,000 the bequests made to her
blood lelatlons, cuts off the $15,000 be
queathed to tho Aniciman Memotlal
chapel, lnci eases the estate that goes
to the Ameiman children by nbout
$70,000 and sets aside $10,000 In ti list
to Rev. Joseph K. Dixon for the caie
of her pug dog and horses.
While testlfIng at the hearing In
Worcester, Colonel Waties, who, un
der the will he opposes, Ir named ns
guai dian of tho Amerman child! en,
was asked by the Judge If the second
will did not lncteaso tho bequest to
the children by $70,000. Following
Colonel Waties afiltmatlve reply, the
judge deposed him from tho guaullan
shi and appointed In his stead a Wor
cester attorney named Men HI. Per
sons familiar w Ith the full facts of the
case can le.adlly ste that tho judge
took tho action under a misconception
foimcd from silt face Indications
An equity case has been Instituted
In the Massachusetts couits to Inval
idate the trust fund of $'0 000 estab
lished by Mrs Amerman for tho ben

Major J. B. Fish, who Is now devot

the head of "Burgess of Plttston.
Of recent ears the greater paft of
the mnjor's tlma has been devoted to
tho Providence Gas nnd Water com
pany, of which ho Is supeilntendent
and though mutiy and severe com
plnlnts have been entered against tho
supply of thnt paitieulnr company In
diis gone by, It can bo said that tho
major did much to lmpiovo the quality
of tho water, and that the mntteis
that Induced the complaints were be
yond his power to tectlfy.
The movement for n bank, which ho
started, has met with great success
nnd there Is every teason to believe
that within a short time Notth Scran
