BOY DROWNED IN
THE ROARING BROOK
He Was Charles Ridgeway, tho 12-
Year-Old Son of Mrs. L. M.
Ridgeway of Adams Avenue.
Charles Illdgcway, tho twelve-year-old
son of Mrs. I M. Kidgeuav, who
conducts the Aldlne, at 420 Adams ave
nue, was drowned yesterday morning
In the Lackawanna It on nnd Stool
company's dam, on the Roaring I3iook,
Just below Nay Aug Falls.
IMdle Doeis and Clarence Foster,
to young lads, wcie walking near the
dam In the morning about 10 o'clock,
when thev noticed a pile of boy's
clothing lying on tho bank, but no
sign of tho boy. Some little distance
away they saw two boys In a state of
nudity, picking berries.
They called to these lads nnd asked
them where the other boy was, and
were told that he was In swimming,
they thought, but when they saw that
there was no trace of him, cald he
must bo drowned. The two boys ex
plained that they had been In bath
ing with tho Ridgeway boy nnd that
they had quit the water to pick ber
ries, leaving him still bathing.
Thev had not seen him drown, they
explained, and the first they knew
that anything was wrong was when
Foster and Devers called to them.
All four dived after the body, but
failed to secure It. whereupon Foster
nnd Devers came down town and noti
fied tho boj's mother and tho police.
Tho names of tho two boys who wete
in bathing with young Ridgeway are
not known, but that they were fi lends
of his Is evidenced by the fact tint
they knew his name.
Patrolman Bloch and Schmidt were
dispatched to tho scone and lecovered
tho boy's body shortly after 4 o'clock.
Deputy Coroner Paine was notified nnd
decided after viewing the remains that
an Inquest was unnecessary. The body
was removed to the home of tho boy's
mother. Tho funeral arrangements
have not yet been made.

BROWNIE CAMERAS FOR Sl.OO.
JSR.
KEMP'S STUDIO
DIFFICULTIES OF
SLATE MAKING
ENCOUNTERED BY THE DEMO
CRATIC LEADERS.
At An Early Hour Tills Morning tho
Work of Selecting a Ticket Had
Been Completed and It Will Bo
Presented to the Convention To
day for Ratification Considerable
Difficulty In Getting Candidates for
Some of the Offices Slato as De
cided Upon.
With a question mark after the Jury
commissioner tho following Is the tick
et that will bo nominated at today's
Democratic convention:
Congress M. F. Conry, Scrnnton.
Judge Hon. John P. Kelly, Scran
ton. District Attorney James J, O'Mnl
ley, Olyphant.
Treasurer C. G. Boland, Scranton.
Prothonotary Matthew F. Norton,
Carbondale.
Clerk of the Courts Thomas Law,
Archbald.
Recorder Fred W. Wnrnke, Scran
ton. Register William Koch, Jr.,
Scranton.
Jury Commissioner Andrew
Healey, Dunmore.
It was 1 o'clock this morning beforj
the ticket was completed. Tho letd
oi s got together early In the night at
the St. Chnilcs, and proceeded to 1111
In tho three aeant plnces dlstilct at
torney, piothonotaty nnd clork of the
courts.
When It was seen that neither John
J. Murphy nor Hon. John P. Qulnnan
would take tho nomination for district
attorney, Mr. O'Malley was picked
upon as a likely candidate, and shottly
after midnight agiced to go Into tho
light.
Fiank Thompson, P. J. Hlckey, Ben
son Davis and E. J. Boblnson, who
weie tho possibilities for clerk of the
courts, did not come up to tho te
qulrements, nnd after a good deal of
fiddling It was decided to let Thomas
Law, of Archbald, have another ti
for tho place. There was no one elsa
looking for prothonotaiy, and Mr. Nor
ton was put on the slate.
There was no one slated for Jury
commissioner, the slate-makers said,
and this was probably true, but the
general trend of opinion was that
Mr. Healey would win out from the
big list of seekers for this place. In
an open fight, however, such as It Is
claimed this will be, any one of a
half-do7en other candidates especially
M. E O'Malley, John Flnn or Wlllla.n
Knne, Is liable to catry the day.
Mi. f'onty was nt tho headquarters
for a few minutes, but did not evince
any desire to participate In the mak
ing up of the ticket. He seemed con
tent that he would head It, slate-makes
and no slate-makeis, and em
ployed his time In Intensifying this
contentment by circulating among the
delegates on tho outside, rather than
hobnobbing with tho leaders.
Ev-Mnyor James J. O'Neill, of Car
bondale, was agreed upon for chair
man. ARRANGING FJR
A POULTRY SHOW
Preliminary Steps Taken Last Night
nt a Meeting of Fanciers Held
at E. C. Rickert's Store.
F:om present indications, if all goes
well, Scranton will be the scene of a
laigo poultry show this December,
probably In the week between Christ
mas and New Year. A laige number
of local poultry fanciers and general
lovers of the feathered race gathered
last night at E. C. Hickea's store, on
Adams avenue, and formulated plans
for a permanent oiganlzatlon and the
holding of a show In December.
About twenty gentlemen, all of them
fanciers of no small note, assembled
last evening at the meeting place nnd
after talking the matter over for
awhile, effected a temporary oiganlz
atlon. Mr. Rlckert was elected chair
man, and the subject of the poultry
show then brought up. Several com
mittees on organization were appoint
ed, which will make their report next
Monday evening, when the members
will meet again nt tho same place.
George N. Pryor, one of the club's
most enthusiastic members, received a
letter regatding the exhibition In De
cember, which proved a most welcome
encouiagement to the enterprise. It
Is fiom Homer Davenport, of Orange,
N. J., tho world famous cartoonist.
Although It Is not generally known,
Mr. Davenport is a great lover of bluls
and fowls and Is one of the greatest
poultiy fanciers In the country. In
his letter he piomlses to bo in tho city
In December nnd to bring with him
for exhibition his great stock of pheas
ants Mr. Davenport has what Is
piobably the finest collection of pheas
ants In the country.
Funds are now being talsed to de
fray the expenses of the exhibition
and about $100 has already been sub
scribed. A giand piano will be put
up ns a prize for tho best all around
display It Is expected that fanciers
from all over the United States and
Canada will compete. Tho exhibit will
not be for poultry alone, although that,

IN MEMORY OF KING HUMBERT.
Protestant Italians to Hold Memoilal
Services This Evening.
In the lecture room of tho First
Presbyterian church this evening at
7.30 o'clock u memoilal service will bo
held expressive of the regret of tho
Protestant Italians of Scranton and Its
vicinity over tho untimely death of
King Humbert. The arrangements for
this meeting have been made by Rev.
Leonard D'Annn, who, with Antonio
Mllanesl, of Plttston, art associate In
mission work, will have charge of tho
devotional portion of tho exercises.
Tho Italian consular agent In this
cltv, Mr. Tortunato Tlscar, has con

SHE BATTERED HER
AUNT WITH A CLUB
Miss Julia Sullivan, of Ninth Street,
Inflicted Serious Injury on Her
Aunt Was Greatly Enraged.
A woman named Mrs. Sullivan, le
sldlng on Ninth stret, near Jackon,
was the victim of an assault at noon
yesterday, and as a lesult she Is In
a dangetous condition.
It seems that her niece, Miss Julia
Sullivan, who resides nearby, took ex
ception to some icmaikx made by her
aunt, and to demonstrate the force
of her objection, picked up a club
and proceeded to batter her aunt's
head.
The girl would probably have bat.
tcred Mis Sullivan's binlns out, but
for the timely Interference of sevoial
spectators. As It was. the woman Is
so badlv injuiod that the police, a
phvslcl.in and n priest were called.
The police failed to make an airest
nnd Dr. J. J. Can oil, who was called,
stated that tho woman's Injuries are
not necessarily fatal.
SHIRT WAIST MAN
HAS COME TO STAY
So Mr. White Believes and Ho Has
Designed a Shirt Waist for the
Special Benefit of Men.
Theodore A. White, of this city,
president of the Theodore A. White
Manufacturing company, manufactur
ers of men's shlits, having realized that
the shirt waist man has come to stay,
has designed what Is undoubtedly the
llrst really tiuly men's shirt waist seen
In tho cast. There have been tumors
of something of this sort having been
designed In some of the big enstein
cities, but Mr. White avers that they
are only lumors and that he Is the
first to design this article of diess.
The shirt waist men who have so
far appeared hero have been simply
vvenrlng their ordinal y outing shlrt3
without a coat, but Mr. White ap
pealed on the streets jesterday In his
new waist, which Is not an ordinary
outing shirt by any manner of means.
It closely resembles the shlit waists
worn by the small boy, being equipped
with a row of buttons around the waist
to which the trousers nio buttoned.
The belt cun then be placed around
the waist and If the wearer has not
got nn especially large embonpoint It
stead of pulling his belt until It neaily
squeezes him to death all that will be
necessary will be to pull It just tight
enough to keep it on.
The cuffs aie made exactly like or
dinary link cuffs, but are, of course,
fastened permanently to the sleeves.
Thus the disadvantage of having to
put on detachable cuffs Is done away
with. Mr. White says the company
will not manufacture any of tho waists
until next season and he expects that
they will then have a very laige sale.
HEAVY MORTALITY RATE.
There Were Fifty-three Deaths,
Twenty-six Being Children.
That the hot weather last week
played sad havoc with the lives of the
little chlldien In the city was evi
denced, yesterday, when the secretary
of the board of health's weekly report

of age had died last week from 'vari
ous complaints, superinduced by tho
heat.
There vveio fifty-three deaths alto
gether, which just equals this ear's
highest weekly record. Theio were ten

Four Men and a Woman Wero Taken
Into Custody and at Hearings Yos

Imposed Upon Them by Mayor
Molr Testimony That Was Offered
in the Cases Mayor Well Satisfied
with the First Days Work Other
Arrests to Follow.
"We are In earnest, about extermin
ating this speakeasy evil, and will not
rest until we have cleared the city of
them," lcmarkcd Mayor Molr to a
Tribune man yesterday, and the r?c
ord of the day was Btrong testimony
to the truth of his assertion. Five pro
prietors of tippling houses were ar
rested and all fined heavily.
Frank Hnsselawski, of River street,
Mrs. Bridget Ruane, of 324 Larch
stieet, and John Dubee, of Tourth
stteet, were each fined $50, with the
alternative of spending thirty days .n
the county Jail. Stephen Flanagan, of
1710 Luzerne street, was fined $73, nnd
In the case of Edward Bush, of 113
Seventh street, sentence was postponed
until 3 o'clock Monday, August '.'0.
Rush's attorney, ex-Judge Knnpp,

that an application for a license to b
gianted Rush hns already been filed
Until ho secures it, his place will be
closed.
The arrested parties were nil given
their heatings yesterday afternoon,
with tho exception or Rassclawskl,

Gteenburger In the morning, and ai
lalgncd before Mnyor Molr. Several
pei sons testified to having tmrehascd
Intoxicating liquors In his place, and
Mayor Molr then lmpoed a $50 fine.
GIVEN HEARINGS.
At 3 o'clock In the afternoon Mrs.
Ruane, Flanagan and Dubee were
given their hearings. Flanagan denied
ever having sold any beer or liquor of
any sort In his store, nnd loudly pro
tested his Innocence.
Officer Greenburcer was the first
witness. He testified to having been
in the place August 9, and while there
took a dilnk with a friend. Flanagan,
when he heard this evidence, carefully
looked Greenhurger over, nnd then flo
riated that ho never saw him In his
life.
Chnrles Anderson testified that he
was In Flanagan's establishment with
Greenberger, nnd while there had a
drink of beer. Mayor Molr then mild
ly remarked to Flanagan that he
would be compelled to pay $73 Into the
city treasury.
Flanagan smiled genially and statt
ed for the door, only to be lecalled by
Chief Bobllng telling him that he
would have to pay his fine first.
"What," exclaimed Flanagan indig
nantly, "not oven ten days' giace?"
"Not a day," answered the chief.
"Well, I'll take an appeal, then,"
said Flanagan.
"All right," said Mayor Molr, "but
flist you will have to pay your fine."
Tor Mayor Molr has found tint
while In these cises the accused speak
easy keepeis can take an appeal, they
must first pay thtlr fines. Then, If
tho decision of the mayoi's couit Is
leversed, the money Is, of course, re
funded. MRS. RUANE'S CASE.
In the case of Mrs. Ruane, John
Brvant, of Now York street, nnd Mrs.
Biace, of Larch street, were two of tho
witnesses called, and testified to hav
ing pui chased beer nnd whiskey In
Mrs. Runne's house on Sunday and
week-days. Mrs. Ruane, thtough her
counsel, nsked that the minimum pen
alty bo Imposed, but Mayor Molr said
that a very large number of com
plaints had been received about her
establishment, and ns It was consid
ered to be the source of a great deal
of trouble In that part of the cltv, he
could not dismiss the case without
fining her nt least $50.
