A terrific hail and wind storm passed over this city and portion of Leb anon county yesterday afternoon leaving de struction in Its wake.

Captain Weaver Discusses tho Reor ganization Question. Captain Peter Lyle Weaver, mili tary editor of the Philadelphia In quirer, pencrally resarded as tho most expert military writer In the state, haB this to pay recording tho contem plated reorganization of the guard: "Theio Is still nnother matter In whlrh an nttempt to cnuso trouble In the Guard Is being made, nnd that U the comments upon tho announcement that the Eighth Infantry would prob ably bo disbanded, It being utatcd by the enemies of the Guard that this jeglment was to be wiped out solely for political reasons. This Is another of those mischievous lies which Bhould not be allowed to go without contra diction. Tho facts are that more thnn a year ago when tho Guard was be ing reorganized, It was determined that the organization should approxi mate that of the army. "There were fifteen regiments of In fantry, twelve of which uero com posed of eight companies each, and three regiments had ten companies each; In addition there was a sepai ate battalion nnd an Independent com pany of Infantry. Tho army system cnlls for regiments of twelve compan ies each, and four regiments to the brigade. To accomplish this and muk tho brigades In this state equal In strength, and, also, more even tactical units, It was necessary to disband three regimental organizations. Geo graphical conditions were first consid ered, nnd then tho ofllclencv of the regiments was taken Into account. "It was outlined many months ago thnt two regiments should bo disband ed In tho Second bilgade and one In the Third brigade, thus allowing but four regiments In each brigade. Tho separate battalion of Infantry in tha First btlgade ns assigned to nn eight-company regiment nnd the In dependent company was disbanded. One regiment, the Fifteenth Infantry, In the Second brigade, was disbanded and the companies assigned to other regiments. "Another regiment In that brigade Is to go, nnd rumor places the Four teenth as tho one. Of course, a hard fight will be made by tho regiment and Its friends In the western part ot the stato to retain It, but If the Guard Is to bo put upon the pioper tactical basis then all wire-pulling will have no effect, and the Fourteenth or one other command will be dropped. In the Third brigade It was predict ed In the Inquirer more than a year ago that either the Twelfth or tho Eighth would be wiped out. nnd It now seems to have narrowed down to Col onel Hoffman's command. It Is sheer nonsense to claim that the authorities are actuated by mean political mo tives. Their course in the past has always been for the good of tho Guard, and what Is now contemplated is di rectly along the line of the greatest good for tho body at large." HIGH WATER RATES. Mr. Costello's New Ordinance Based on Mr. Melvln's. The ordinance establishing water rates for the cltv, and which was In troduced In selee t council on Thurs day night by J. J. (' -tclln, of tho Third ward, differs matt ly from the ordi nance Introduced last year by T. C. Mclvln and which never got beyond the branch In which it originated. Mr. Costello's ordinance Is, to be sure, based on Mr. Melvln's measure, Inas much as all the peculiar classifications Included In the latter are also Included In tho Costcllo measure, but the rates fixed are. In nearly all Instances, very much higher than in Mr. Melvln's. In the first p,ucc, the rate for a dwelling house with a single family Is jilaced at $C Instead of at $3.75, as in thd original ordinance. Tho $6 rate Is the one now In existence. The rate for each additional family of more than two persons Is fixed at $3 instead of $2.50, and for additional families of two persons only at $3, Instead of $1.23. The rate for a hotel bar, with or without water. Is $12, which is an In crease of $t over tho figures In the Melvln orldnance. For a drug store counter fountain tho rate Is $10, In stead of $2.50, while for barber shops the rate Is $3 for the Must chair, $2 for each additional chair and $3 for each bathtub. The Melvln rates for these Items were $1.50, $1.75 and $3, respect ively. The rate for each tub In a public bathing establishment Is fixed at $S in stead of $3, while ft uniform rate of $12 for photograph galletles Is provided for. The Melvln ordlnnnce fixed the i ate of bottling establishments from $15 to $50, according to size, but Mr. Costello believes there should bo but one figure, and that this should bo $50. The meter rates for water In laigs quantities are tho ones which Mr. Chit tenden brought in when he succeeded In amending Mr. Melvln's ordinance. They nre as follows: Kor a dally average of betneen 10,0M and 20, OCO gallons, 8 cents per thousand. Tor a daily a(cngo of between 20,000 and 60,. 0V) gallons, 0 cents per thousand. For a. dally average of oer 60,000 gallons, 5 cents per thousand, Mr. Costello Is especially sangulno about the ultimata fate of tho ordi nance and says It will pass, but there are some who believe that In attempt ing to get It through councils he Is, In the lnnguago of the street, "up against It for fair." ALLEGED CRUEL TREATMENT. John Reighart Accused of Brutally Beating His Child. Alderman Kasson Saturday Issued a warrant for tho arrrcst of John Iteig hnrt, of North Ninth street, who Is chaiged with brutally beating his 10-year-old daughter, Lulu, with a braid ed wire whip. Ho will be given a hearing today. The warrant was Issued by Mrs. Duggan, agent of the Associated Chailtles, who was notified by some of Ilelghart's neighbors that the child was being brutally tieated. Mrs. Duggan discovered that Reig hart was a widower with one child, Lulu, when he married his present wife, who was a widow with a young boy. He made an agreement with her, It is claimed, that the girl should be chastised by him alone, and the boy by her. The little girl misbehaved herself last week, and Friday night the father punished the child. Ho beat her with a wire braided whip. It la alleged, In such a way that the child's back, arms and lower limbs are now covered with welts and bruises. Saturday morning the girl was treat ed to a turpentine bath to case her pain,, and the additional smart caused by the burning liquid, caused such shrieks from the child that the neigh bors visited the house and learned the story. Reighart is employed by Drayman Brown. m hi Read the full description of The Tribune's Educational Contest on fourth page. HE'LL GET WHAT'S A 'COMIlY TO HIM SO SAYS MR. VAUQHAN OF DR. SITTERLY. Says Ho Can Have All Ho Wants If Ho Desires to Tako the Horso Deal on His Shoulders Claims SI 70 In stead of 8100 Was Paid for ft Team and S35 Instead of S25 for Another Horse, nnd Wants to Know Whore This Extra S80 Has Gone To. "Dr. Sltterly Bays there's no man owns a hair of his whiskers," said Select Councilman D. AV. Vaughan last night. "Well, If ho wants to take this thing on his shoulders, he'll find out thnt he'll lose a whole bunch of hair before he's through." Mr. Vaughan wns In a talkative mood nnd was discussing tho firo de partment horse deal, tho Investigation of which he started. Ho Is determined to get tho report of the Investigating committee recommending the removal of Dr. Sltterly, adopted by select coun cil, come what may. It will bo lemcmbcrcd that tho mo tion to ndopt tho report was lost last Thursday night by a tie vote. Mr. Vaughan Immediately moved that the report bo received and filed and be fore any one realized the effect of this motion It was carried. Had nny one raised a point of order tho motion could hnvo easily been ruled ut, In asmuch as the first adverso vote dis posed of It. No one raised tho point, however, and Just as soon as Mr. Vaughan gets a safe mnjorlty, and he says he can easily get one, ho Is going to move that the report be adopted. He's also going to fight Frank Cobb's bill, on the floor of the councils. This bill passed tho auditing commit tee safely enough, hurt there Is a clause In the rules of councils which provides for the consideration by councils of any bill or bills, providing any councilman files a protest with tho city clerk. PROTEST FILED. Mr. Vaughan filed a protest to Cobb's bill nnd It will accordingly have to bo passed upon by councils. He contends that the pilco charged for the horses, $200 each, Is altogether too high and intimates that he knows what the extra charge was for. He contends that the talk of the city hav ing to pay six per cent, on the ac count Is all bosh and claims that no provision for any rate of Interest was made. "They can claim all they want to," said Mr. Vaughan last night, "that I want to put a man In Sltterly's place, but any fool knows there's nothing In that. I have nothing to do with tho appointing of such an official. The mayor does that, nnd I don't think ho would be Inclined to consult me If he m.ide an appointment. "We've had just about enough of Dr. Sltterly, however, and the sooner the city Is rid of his services tho bet ter for the city. He has been allowing diseased and worthless horses to creep Into the fire department ever since he has been In the city's employ. Go around to the different hose houses nnd find out what a fine, high opinion of his ability the various permanent men have. "I had a. little personal experience myself not long ago. I bought a, horse from an auctioneer for $123 and nfter I had him out once I found that he had heart disease so bad that a veterinari an whom I called In said he might die any moment In harness. I took the animal back and got another In ex change. "A little while later I learned that ex-Chief Walker had purchased the anlmnl a few weeks before I had for his own use and the city had paid $210 for It. The horse had been subjected to a trial and an alleged thorough ex amination by Dr. Sltterly before It was purchased and had been pro nounced O. K. by him. CHIEF RETURNED HORSE. "The chief, after using the animal a few times saw that he was worthless and returned him, as I did, later on. "I've got more sensations to spring In case they need any more. I think I can prove that $170 was paid for the Franklin team Instead of the $100 turned In to Cobb. Tho name of the man who bought that team Is Broken shaw, and ho lives on Deacon street. I heard about this part of the deal, and, in fact, got my first intimation that there was a deal at all In a very peculinr way, "One of the prisoners working on the chain gang on one of the roads told mo that while at work ho had over heard Brokenshaw's brother tell an other man that his brother had Just got a line on a fine team of horses which he had purchased from the city for $170 and that he had lent him $170 to pay for them. "That set me thinking and I have since discovered other facts thtU would tend to prove this. Not only this, but Wade Finn told me last Thursday night that he had seen Dave Nichols pay $35 for a horse, whereas Frank Cobb says the councilman only turned $23 Into nlm as coming from Nichols. Where did that extra $10 go to?" ACADEMY OF MUSIC. Braunig Company Opens the Theat rical Season Tonight.

Hvery attention has been paid to de talls, so tho production of "Credit Lor- ralno" tonight should be witnessed by a large attendance, Thero has been no shows nt this house slntjo last May, so no doubt the patrons are as anxi ous for plays as the management of the theater ato to give It to them. Nothing but tho best of repertoire companies will appear at the Academy this season. Tho house has been thoroughly renovated and every posl bio thing has been done to secure com fort for the patrons. Matinees will be given dally, com mencing Tuesday. On that day "The Secret Enemy" will be the bill. Tho price for matinees Is 10 cents, with a few choice scats reserved at 20 cents.

During the week such well known plays as "Tho Social High wayman," "Iron Master," "Friends," "Lights and Shadows," and tho "Clo menccau Case" will be produced. Ladles will be admitted this evening for 15 cents If seats are secured befoiv 6 p. m. Tho house should, and no doubt will, be packed to tho doors. THREE BOYS CAUGHT LOOTING A STORE Street Car Men Discover Them in Florey & Brooks' Establishment and Capture Them. An attempt wns made to burglar ize Florey & Brooks' Sporting Goods store on Washington avenue, by throe young boys yesteiday afternoon. Two of the boys, whose names on nccount of their families, will be withheld, wore caught In the act by some of tho men employed nt the stteot car bain, and taken to the bain where they were given a thoiough senro, and then re leased with the warning that If ever agnln they were found In the neigh borhood In a like act, they would bo given a severe drubbing. The nttempt to enter tho store wn made at about 4 o'clock yesterday nfternoon. At tho rear of the second floor one of the panes In the window is broken. Tho boys placed a long board against the wall, and while tho largest of the trio remained on wntch, one of the others climbed up tho wall by the aid of tho board, and then climbed up to the window, using the Iron grating of the window on the ground floor ns a ladder. He leached the window, unlatched It by putting his hand through the pane, and then sprang Into the room and down the steps, opening the rear door and letting In his companion. Tho two boys were In the building when the street car men, who watched the entire proceedings, made their ap pearance. Tho tall boy, who was act ing as outpost, saw them as they an proached, nnd took to his heels with out giving his more unfortunate com panions any warning. The car men then entered the store and brought one boy out. They played Nemesis with a vengeance however on the boy who did the climbing act. After his companion was out of the building they made boy No. 1 lock thu door behind them, nnd then making his egress from the building in the same comfortable way that ho made his entrance. They then took the boys to the car bain, and there put them through a course of humiliating nctlons, after which they released them. Tho police were very much chag rined that tho boys' captors took the law Into their own hands, instead of taking the offenders to tho police sta tion nnd lotting Justice be meted out to them In court. 'It was learned by tho guardians of law nnd order that before the boys attempted to burglarize Florey & Brooks' establishment they were seen tamiterlng 'with the windows lof a livery stable In the neighborhood. They were seen by one of the men about the place however and fright ened away before they could effect an entry. - OLYPHANT WATER SUPPLY. Rumor That Gas and Water Company Will Control It.

That Body Yesterday Afternoon De cided to Direct All Union Men Un der Its Jurisdiction to Refuse to Purchase Goods from a Clerk Who Is Not a Member of the Clerk's Union Arrangements for tho La bor Day Parade Are Being Pushed Rapidly Forward. The demure young Bhop girls of this city need not bo n bit sut prised ft few days hence when they approach pros pective malo customers and ask them If they can show them anything, to have the said customers say: "Yes, you can show mo your working card, ceitlfvlne thnt you're a member of the clerks' union." Now, If the girl Is a real good girl and If she wants to make a sale real bad she will go down In her pocket nnd produce such n card, showing that "Miss Sadie Cash Is a duly qualified member of Clerks' union, No. 41, nnd Is to be recognized ns such." If the young lady can't show swh a card and If she Isn't a. member ot tho union her lot will be hard Indesd, for according to the officers of the Central Labor union, tho customer will turn on his heel and walk out. A clerk's union has been organized In this city since last winter, but has not been very successful Inasmuch as the membership Is now only fifty. Some few months ago the Central La bor union took up tho question of boy cotting those Arms not employing union clerks nnd nfter giving It care ful consideration took definite action nt yesterday afternoon's regular meet ing. UNION ORDERS IT. It was then unanimously decided to have each delegate report back to his local union that the Central Labor union has ordered that hereafter no union man Is to purchase roods of any description from nny clerk not a member of tho Clerks' union. While not a direct boycott of the firms employing other than union help this movement Is nevertheless Indi rectly one. Tho labor leaders are con fident that thev will meet with suc cess In unionizing nil the clerks In the city by this plan. "We expect to treble the membership of the union before Labor Day," said one of them yester day. At yesterday's meeting further pro gress wns made In the arrangements for the Lnbor Day parade and picnic. Assurances were received from the of ficers of forty-five of the local unions that they will participate In the par ade, which will be, It Is expected, the largest procession of workers cv.t seen In this city, even surpassing last year's big event. In adlltlon to the forty-five city unions above mentioned nil of th Mine Workers' unions from Archbald to PIttston, numbering about twenty five, will be in line. The grand mar shal of the parade will be George Gothlor, whoso chief of staff will be P. W. Tolan. PARADE OFFICIALS. The grand marshal's aides are to be John J. Clarke and John Dempsoy. There will be two divisions to tho par ade, the Building Trades council divi sion, in charge of P. F. Holton, nnd the Industrial division, In charge of W, S. Brain. Any merchants desiring to participate In the paiade arc request ed to address Mr. Brain at 106 Keyser avenue.
