Marshwood Mine? Who Was Doused with BolUnfj Watr by His Sister-ln-Law, Mrs. John Rusnoek, Two Weeks Ago Last Friday, Expires at the Lackawanna Hospital from the Result of ths Burns Quarrel About Hl Board Bill Led to the Assault No Arrest Yet. Michael Rusnoek, of Mnrshwood, a laborer employed by the Mooslc Msun tnin Coal company, fled yesterday morning at the Lockawauna hospital from Hcnltls Initiated te nlht f Fri day, Aug. 17, by Ma. John Rusnoek, his sister-in-law and boarding Bits tress. Tho two had a disagreement oer Rusnock's board bill nnd It was ter mlntcd by Mrs. Rusnoek seizing a .'1 dron of boiling water and emptyltvr the contents over her brother-in-law. She has not been arrested as yet. Kumnock was not In the country very lonif. He secured work In the Marsh wood mlno and proved lilmsvlf an in dustrious, hard-working man. Ha lived with his brother, John Rusnsck, and lira wife. Friday, Alter. 17, was pay day at the mine, and when Itueuock went home for the night his Blster-to-law de manded money from him to pay fior the month's board and lodging. Tho other lodgers In the house tell varying stories of what occurred at this Junoture. Some say tkat Rusnoek objected to paying tho bill on the ground that It was exorbitant, and that Mrs. Rus noek then Hew Jnjo a passion and as saulted him with the kettle of bolHng water. Others claim that Rwnock on enter ing the house told his sister-in-law that he Intended moving from tho placo at once imhI peeking otSier lodg ings. He then began to gather M property together, and, when present ed with a bill, refused to pay It. Another isrid the most generally dif fused story Is that the entire nffilr was the outcome of a drunken brnwt. Ah a result of It behig pay day tho grog shops wer well patronized by all the miners, and the boarding house was full of drunken men. Mrs. Rus noek approached her brother-in-law while he was In this condition and again brought up thu subject of the bill, which had betci dlecusued warller In the day. A warm argument ensued between the two nnd, on Rusnoek making a threatening gesture, the woman selaed the kettle of boiling water and thrv Hie contents over him. He fell to tho ground with a deup groan, and lay there tKtorlng sound of awful agony. This partially so bered the onlookers, who placed him upon his bed und tried their biMt to sooth his pain. The next day he was removed to the Lackawanna hospital, wliere It was seen from the very outset that his lr Jurles were of a very grave nature and that there was little chance of his recovery. Rusnoek was 35 yesrs of age nnd unmarried. OPENING OF LYCEUM SEASON. The Bill Will Be Dan Hart's "Tho Parish Priest."

Williams said: 'Illy efforts to enforce the law against tho sale o Intoxicating drinks at Lake lodore and Lake Ariel has brought OHt quite a newspaper cor-rosponde-nce. That people may have the facts, am glad to give them. "August 12 I spoke In the Methodist nplscopnl nnd Haptlst churches In Plonesdale. While there I called at the county court house nnd asked for the county Judge, Pherlff and district nttorney, but was Informed they were all out of the city. "1 left word that ns n representa tive of the Anti-Saloon League, I would request them to do what they could to suppress the Illegal sale of Intoxicating drinks at Lake Ariel and Lake Lodore. I then called at the of fice of the prothonotary and asked hlm If there had been a license Issued at Lake At lei and Lake Lodore. After examining the records, he Informed mo there had been no license Issued for Lake Lodore or Lake Ariel. "There bad been a license granted for Canaan, which had been trans ferred, but did not cover the sale of liquor at Lake Lodore. Mr. John Jor dan, In nn Interview yesterday, pro duced n license made out in his name, which he says he thinks was this transfer referred to. There seems to be a mistake somewhere, and I will take steps to get the matter right, In Justice to all concerned. "I then went to the picnic grounds nt Lake Lodore and found they have a government license framed nnd hung up In the place where beer Is sold. "Lake Ariel hns no such license. To make sure that Lake Lodore had n government license, nnd to be sure that Lake Ariel had no such license. I called at the office of the Internal revenue collector in scranton. I was Informed that Lake Lodore had a gov ernment license, but Lake Ariel had not. I have written two letters to the revenue ofllce, railing their nttentlon to tho sale of liquor at Lako Ariel. "On August 22 I addressed the Wayne County Uaptlst association at Damascus, Wnyne county. At tho close of my address a resolution was passed nsklng the Judge and sheriff of Wayne county to enforce the law against the illegal sale of liquor at Lake Lodore and Lake Ariel. We also asked them In this resolution to suppress Sabbath desecration nt each of the lakes named. If there Is no Sabbath desecration or Illegal selling of liquor, then the resolution will mp apply. "I tried to find out where tho con stable for Lake township wns, while nt Lake Ariel and I could find no one who even knew who ho was, so I walked out to the Justice of the peace and he gave me his name, I then wrote him a letter calling his atten tion to the violated law nt Lake Ariel. "All the Anti-Saloon League asks Is tbnt tho law bo enforced, as It now stands." POOR DIRECTORS' CONVENTION. Twenty-sixth Annual Session to Be Held in Wilkes-Barre.
