Patrolman Lona Day Put Them on the Right Road. Patrolman Lona Day was chuckling Joyously all yesterday afternoon, over an Incident which occurred about 2.30 o'clock. The big blue coat was stand ing at the corner of Lackawanna and Franklin avenues when he was ap proached by a very young-looking man and young woman, who. came from the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western station. Tho two walked up to Day, and then the young lady blurted out, "Say, Mr. Officer, can you tell us where to go to get married. We want some Methodist minister." Patrolman Day directed them to the residence of Rev. Richard Morns, on Gibson street. The young couple thanked him profusely nnd walked hurriedly up the nvenue. They re turned In about an hour, both of them wearing rather uncomfortable expres sions. As a token of his gratitude, the groom, whose name Is Tillman Rrlnton, nnd who lives near Lake Wlnola, asked Lona to enter the Scran ton house with him and "have some thing," which offer the patrolman courteously refused. Mr. Iirlnton was so surprised at this that he dropped a handsome umbrel la belonging to his wife, and shivered Its china head Into dozens of pieces on the sidewalk. Mrs. Iirlnton was formerly Miss Tessle Walters and also lived near Lake Wlnola. THEY DON'T WANT SIDEWALKS. Residents of Throop Street File Peti tion with Councils. A number ot residents of Throop street tiled a petition with common council on Thursday night asking that body to reconsider Its action In pass ing tho ordinance providing for tho laying of flng stone sidewalks on that thoroughfare. The reasons given for this request are many. It is claimed that the street has never been accepted by the city; that It has never been graded, and finally, that not a single property owener living on the street Is finan cially able nt present to pay for tho laying of walks on account of the heavy sewer assessments now charged against them. Council reconsidered Its action, nnd Indefinitely postponed nny further consideration of tho ordinance. R. R. Y. M. C. A. EXCURSION. Will Be Run This Year to Heart Lake on Labor Day.

The ordinance transferring $7C9 from the Judgments and Incidentals appro priation Is not likely to pass select council ns easily as It passed the common branch, but some of the se lect councllmen think they see a way clear for the installation ot a few of the new lights provided in the meas ure. They figure that there will be a sulllclent balance In the appropriation for street lighting to provide for nl least seven or eight extra lights. This balance will result from the rebates made for lights found not lighted dur ing the year. These rebates so far this year amount to about JUfiO and are in creasing In size monthly, the police men who report the lights out appear ing to be growing more observant as the months roll by. The ordinance awarding the contract provides that any light found extinguished, no mat ter for how long, shall not be paid for on that particular night. That the ordinance will not pass select council easily is apparent from tile opposition ulready manifested to It by several members of that branch. Select Councilman Vnughan, when seen In the city hall yesterday and questioned as to what his position on it would be, was very outspoken. "I won't vote for any such meas ure," he said. "It provides for a light for my ward but that's not golns to make me vote for It. This way they have of creating deficiencies for next year Is something I don't approve of." The agitation caused by this ordin ance is likely to militate to a certain extent against the passage of the or dinance transferring $2,12.-1 from vari ous unexpended balances from lS'JO, to the use of the lire department for the remainder of the fiscal year. Luther Keller, In tho course of his investigation of the judgments and incidentals account, has discovered that tlie controller, Instead of trans ferring nil balances of appropriations from last year, except those made for street repairing, pavement and sewer cleaning, printing, stationary and in cidentals, to the judgments and Inci dentals appropriation, hns carried them over to their corresponding appropri ations for this year, thus making It possible for this transfer for fire de partment purposes to be made. The general appropriation ordinance distinctly directs tho transfer of all balances, except those mentioned above, to the judgments and inciden tals account and Mr. Keller Intends to bring up this argument when the fire ordinance comes up on third reading at the next meeting of the common council.

Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad Company nnd the Scran ton Railway Company Offer to Con struct a $70,000 Viaduct Over the Lackawanna Avenue Crossing Without n Cent of Expense to the City Happy Consummation of the Board of Trade Committee's Work. Tho West Lackawanna avenue via duct Is now n possibility. The Dela ware, Lackawanna and Western Rail road compnny and tho Scrnnton Rail way company will build It free of cost to tho city. All that the city need concern Itself about Is the con sequential damages to property. As the viaduct must come some time, and these dnmnges met, Is is not unlikely that the city olliclals will conclude that they might best be met now, while the offer of tho two companies Is before them. Tho offer was the result of a confer ence yesterday morning between Presi dent W. H. Trucsdnlu and Chief En gineer W. K. Mt-Fiirlln, of the Lnckn wnnna, and President C. M. Clark and General Mannger Frank Sllllmnn, Jr., of the trolley company. They had had considerable correspondence on the subject of jointly building the via duct and It was a matter of a very short tlnn after their coming together before nn agreement was reached. Forthwith they called together the city's representatives and made known their proposition. The meeting was held In the offices of Wlllard, Warren & Knnpp Just before noon. There were present Mr. Truesdnle, Mr. Clark, Engineer McFarlin, Mr. Sllliman, Colo nel F. L. Hitchcock, C. R. Kinsley and A. 13. Dunning, of the board of trade streets and highways committee: City Engineer Joseph Phillips, City So licitor A. A. Vosburg and ex-Judge H, A. Knnpp, counsel for the companies. AGREEMENT PRESENTED. The proposition was laid before the Perantonlans, plans of the proposed viaduct were displayed and an agree ment made to give tho city a bond to build the viaduct In tho quickest possible time after the permission Is forthcoming. Tho city's representatives agreed to present tho offer to councils at onco nnd urge its Immediate acceptance. City Engineer Phillips heartily ap proves of the Idea, and says the plans are In every way acceptable. The structure, he estimates, will cost $70, 000. The offer Is the result pf negotia tions conducted by the committee on streets and highways of the Scranton board of trade. This committee set Itself upon the task of abating some of the death traps connected with our streets, and tackled the West Lackawanna nvenue crossing first. An interview published in The Trib une with Mr. Sllliman of the Railway company, elicited a proposition from that company to build a viaduct over that crossing for their own use, nt their own expense. If the city would permit It. This was reported to the board of trade and the committee was authorized to communicate with the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western people, and, If possible, secure the co operation of both companies in build ing the viaduct. The committee was most cordially received by the oflleers of both com panies: several conferences were held with them and with the city engineer and city solicitor, and the outcome Is the offer of yesterday. riRST-CLARS STRUCTURE. The plans agreed upon call for a sixty foot viaduct, covering the whole roadway of West Lackawanna avenue from Seventh street to Ninth street. Under these plans tho structure will not only bo a substantial one, but a handsome, thoroughly up to date bridge, which will make the hill climb very much easier than now. The grade from Seventh to Ninth street will be but a trifle over six per cent, against eleven per cent, from the tracks up, now. The Lackawanna people have made a concession In the crossing grade, which has made this easy grade pos sible. The viaduct will go over tho tracks at a height of a little more than seventeen feet, whereas twenty one to twenty-two feet has been re quired heretofore. . The proposition is certainly highly credltnble to both companies. Sim ilar structures over crossings in New ark, lilnghamton and Elmlra are now being built, and the cities in each case pay part of the cost as well as the resultant damages to abetting prop erties. Less liberal propositions have here, tofore been made to Scranton, but the committee realized that If the city was to be saddled with nny portion of the cost of the viaduct, nn Indefinite time would elapse before It could be built, for the reason, that no funds are avail able for that purpose; and to raise funds meant another bond ordinance and n vote of the people thereon, with the possible constitutional debt limit blocking the way. This condition of affairs was franklv stated to the two companies, and they were told that the only way to get a viaduct was to build It themselves, which they havo handsomely agreed to do. Tho question of damages to abut ting properties can be settled In the HE A DQUA RTERS. 100 to 200 Baskets Fancy Peaches dally Jerseys, 50c Up, Delawares, 75c Up Mountain Rose.

The city Is to bo congratulated on tho happy solu tion ot this most difficult nnd long mooted problem, and on tho probable speedy closing up ot one ot the worst deuth traps to bo found nnvwhere In the country. It Is safe to say tho city fathers will meet the proposition of the companies, In tho spirit In which It is made, and promptly pass the requisite ordinance, permitting tho erection of the viaduct. Tho plan ot the contemplated via duct calls for a structure 720 feet long and covering the entire roadway.from curb to curb, between Seventh and Ninth streets, excepting a forty or fifty foot space opposite Eighth street, where an opening will be left to allow of communication between Eighth street nnd Dockush pluce. An Iron bridge, 216 feet long, will span tho railroad tracks. It wilt bo supported at either end on solid walls of masonry and In the Intervening space by seven sets of Iron plllnts. The approaches on either side will be of solid stone work. Tho steepest grade ot the viaduct Will bo exactly one-half the present grade of tho hill between tho tracks and Ninth street. ANOTHER BOOK WAR IS BEING WAGED Controllers Intend to Do Away with a Grammar nnd Agents Are on Hand to Help Them. Another big book ngent fight Is en gaging the attention of tho members of the board of control. All the large publishing houses making a specialty of school books, have agents on the ground nnd a battle royal irlvnlllng that of a year ago. Is under way. Under the state law, n school board cannot change a text book oftener than onco In three yenrs. Last year was the trlennlnl venr. In this regard, for the Scrnnton district, nnd a whole sale chnnge of text books resulted. One of the changes was In the gram mars. The district had been using Tnrbell's language lessons. Superin tendent Howell did not like this book ns well ns some others and was dis posed to recommend another author's work, when the publisher of the Tnr boll grammar came In with a propo sition to revise the book to meet Su perintendent Howell's Ideas and, if tho revised edition was adopted for three yenrs, to replace nil the grammars the district hnd on hand with tho re vised edition. MUCH UN EVIDENCE. The proposition was accepted, but the agreement was not satisfactorily carried out, and the board decided to adopt some other book. This nw announced to the publishers and In n Jiffy the agents commenced to flock hither. They were very much In evi dence at the board of control rooms last night, when the text book com mittee had a meeting to arrange the preliminaries for selecting the new book. The law provides that the selection of the books shall be left to a com mittee of seven teachers. The text book committee last night arranged that each of the five members should select a teacher, nnd these, with two to be appointed respectively by Su perintendent Howell and President Jayne, be made the committee to pass upon the merits of the different gram mars. The teachers are to meet next Mon day morning In the board of control rooms and give nudlence to the differ ent agents. They will then make a recommendation for the consideration of the text book committee and if It meets with the committee's approval. it will be reported to the board for adoption. Monday night. The names of the teachers who arc to serve on this committee are, for obvious rea sons, withheld. KINDERGARTNERS RE-ENGAGED. There was a meeting, nlso, last night of the Kindergarten committee. All of last year's teachers were re-engaged and It was agreed that the schools In session last term should be continued. Miss Underwood, the supervising klndergartner, nnd Miss Gregory will have charge of the Providence school; Miss Mlnnhan will be In Green Htldge; Miss Peck at No. 19, West Scranton. nnd Miss Rice at No. 7, South Scran ton. The building committee likewise had a meeting nnd decided to report favor ably upon the disputed bill of Frank J. Johnson. BAUER'S BAND CONCERT. Programme to Be Rendered at tho Park, Today.

We have Just received a copy of tho catalogue of the State Normal School at Ulooniflburg, I'n. This school Is recognized as one of the best In the United Stutes, and, as proof of this fact, draws a patronage that extends from Maine to California. In fact, we are Informed several students from Japan and Porto Rico, and probably from other foreign countries will be In attendance during the coming year. This Indicates that the school has an International reputation. This high standing Is the result" of correct meth ods nnd thorough teaching by college and university trained specialists.

He was arrested yesterday morn ing by City Detective John Molr, and arraigned before Mayor Molr. A $M line was Imposed. Mnyor Molr Is highly pleased with the success so far of the antl-speak-easles proceedings. Ten persons have been arrested so far and sevepnl hun dred dollars added to the city treasury, while In some Instances tho guilty parties have been unable to pay their lines and accordingly have been committed to the county Jail for thirty days, the maximum penalty. Ills honor declnres thnt every day fresh evidence Is being accumulated, nnd that dally arrests can be now ex pected for nn Indellnlte period. He reiterates his previous statements thnt he will root out every speakeasy in the city, nnd from the business-like way In which thing are nt present being conducted, It certainly looks as though the unlicensed liquor house will ut no distant date be a thing ot tho past. One of the first men nrrested was Edward Rush, but he was released, on his attorney, ex-Judge Knapp, In forming Mayor Molr that he had ap plied for a license, and that It would be granted within a week from the date of the arrest. In the meantime Rush kept his place of business closed. A Jlcense was granted him, from which the city realized about $400.
