Imitation Katzenynmmer Kids Be
fore Alderman miliar.
Joseph Thiol and Will Loughner, two
smnll South Scranton lnds, were ar
raigned before Alderman Millar last
night on the charge of malicious mis
chief, preferred by Mrs. E. M. Stnge, of
Willow street. The latter alleges that
about two weeks ago she canned
eighty-five jars of fruit. At that time
the families of both the Thiol nnd
Loughner boys were tenants In the
same building in which Mrs. Stage
lives, and she alleges the two little
fellowc broke Into the room whore the
fruit wns and destroyed sixty-five of
the cans. The boys were originally
merely on a foraging expedition, but
after eating all the fruit they could,
they smashed this large number of
jars.
At the hearing last night It was
claimed that another boy, Henry Wolf
ram, of Stone avenue, wns Implicated
In the destruction of the fruit and a
warrant was Issued for his arrest. The
boys were held for their appearance at

nizance. MESSENGER BOYS STRIKE.

to $10 a month, nnd they were al
lowed pay for extra time worked.
The boys were under the leader
ship of Paddy Moran, who Is a little
older than the average messenger.
Three of the boys decided to return
to work, leaving seven out on strike,

MANAGER'S OFFICE,
117 ADAMS AVE,
THE CHANGE TO A
SECOND CLASS CITY
IT WILL REQUIRE! MUCH LOCAL
LEGISLATION.
Councilman Rocho's Finn of Having
a Committee Appointed to Draw
Up All Ordinances Which It Will
Bo Necessary to Pass and Report
to Councils Before Jan. 1 Diffi
culty of Obtaining a Copy of tho
New Second Class City Law to Be
Introduced in Next Legislature.
Scranton cannot be changed from a
city of the third clnss to a city of tho
second clnss without n great amount of
preliminary legislation onnthe part of
councils. Select Councilman John E.
lloche realizes this, and he Introduced
a resolution In select council on Thurs
day night providing for the appoint
ment of a special committee of three
to take up the matter and report to
councils before January 1 such legis
lation as It will be necessary to oass.
Mr. rioehe, when seen yesterday by
a Tribune man, sold that while ho had
given the matter very little thought,
nevertheless It hnd occurred to him
that some such committee should bo
appointed as soon as possible, and he
accordingly Introduced tho resolution.
When asked to suggest Just what such
a committee could do, Mr. Rocho said:
"It Is vell known that under the
second class city law many new ofllces
are created and manyof the cxlstlnc
ones dispensed with. For Instance, tho
offices of chief of police and chief of
tho fire department will be done away
with nnd nn office termed the director
of public safety created In their stead.
Tho street cleaning and city engineer's
departments are consolidated and an
official known as the director of pub
lic works takes the place of the city
engineer and the street commissioner.
"While tho duties of these officials
tiro given in a general way in the act
of assembly, It will be necessary for
councils to pass new ordinances ex
actly defining their duties and their
limitations. Then the question of sal
ary will have to be fixed. Many people
fancy that when we become a city of
the second class the salaries now paid
city officials In Pittsburg will (go into
effect as a matter of course.
"That couldn't be thought of for n
moment, for If we did the city fvould
bo swamped. Then agaln.ispeclal elec
tions will have to be provided for the
election of additional common coun
cllmen. Then there will have to be
changes in the municipal building.
Ofllces will have to be moved around
and provisions made for the accom
modation of extra councllmon In tho
council chamber. In fact, a great deal
more In the way of preliminary legis
lation will have to be done than many
people dream of."
Mr. Roche believes that Scranton
will become a city of the second class
next April, and that the committee
ought to get down to business as soon
as possible. He believes that tho com
mittee could take up the question of
having the second clnss city law
amended, nlso, but this would be an
after consideration. .f
Commissions from Pittsburg and Al
legheny have compiled an entirely new
law governing second class cities,
which Is to be presented at the coming
session of the legislature. Mayor Molr
has been making a desperate effort
during the past few weeks to get a
copy of this act, but has been unable
to do so. He has written to the city
solicitors of both cities, but has re
ceived no reply.
It Is thought that both Pittsburg and
Allegheny are perfectly satisfied with,
the new law and are not desirous of
having this city suggest any changes
to it. Could a copy of it bo obtained it
would be found extremely useful, but
it is pretty safe to believe that the
people across the state will not make
It public until It is introduced in the
legislature.
RECEPTION AT A. O. U. W. HALL.
Plttston Delegates Entertained by
Upchurch Lodge Last Night.
Upchurch lodge, No. 222, A. O. U. W.,

TO ALLOW CONTROLLER $60.
Thnt's What the Finance Committee
Decided Last Night.
Tho finance commltteo of the board
of control at a meeting held last night)
decided to recommend to tho board
that City Controller Howell bo allowed
$50 a month compensation for tho work
ho does for tho school district.
David J. Reedy, tho solicitor of the
bonrd, was present nt tho meeting and
informed tho members of the commlt
teo that they wero not legally bound
to allow tho controller tiny compensa
tion, It was decided, however, ns a
mutter of fair play, that ho should be
granted the amount' above referred to.

COLLAPSB OF A
BIG WATER TANK
Hoops Burst and Allowed the Water
to Drop Thirty Feet on to the
Roof of a-Condensory Plant.
By the collapse of a large water
tank surmounting tho Clark's Summit
Condcnsery company's plant last even
ing the roof of the engine room was
wrecked, the Interior turned topsy-turvy
and two of the employes, Morton
Colvln and Ernest Buckley, painfully
bruised and cut.
The condenscry Is alongside the Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western
tracks, near the station. The tank
stands above It on a rack thirty feet
high. It was a new tank nnd was
filled only a few dnys ago. The sup
position Is that the hoops were not
loosened enough to allow for tho swell
ing of the wood and burst asunder
when the strain became too great.
The great mass of water fel almost
In bulk on the roof, nnd, crushing
through the timbers, sent everything
inside the engine room bowling, in all
directions. The two men who were in
jured luckily happened to bo out from
beneath the point of the roof whero
the water struck. They were hurt by
pieces of flying timber and by being
thrown against the side of the room.
The water tank Is used to supply the
boilers.
CITY SCORES A POINT.
Appeal Allowed in the Case of Koeh
ler Against the City.
The Supreme court yesterday allow
ed an appeal from the decision of tho
Superior court In the case of Kochlcr
against tho city of Scranton.
This Is the Mulberry street paving
case. Judge Archbald dectded In fa
vor of tho contention of- the property
holders, on the upper end of the street,
where there was double street car
tracks, that they -cannot be called
upon to pay for more pavement than
was actually laid In front of their re
spective properties. The assessment
was made by taking the whole cost
of the pavement from one end of the
street to tho other and dividing It
pro rata according to the feet front
age among nil the property holders.
The Superior court affirmed the de
cision and City Solicitor A. A. ,Vos
burg made petition to the Supreme
court for an appeal. His ground Is
that the foot front rule, which is held
to be constitutional, permits of no al
lowances being made for a pavement
that may be paid fcr in front of a
property by a street car company, any
moro tlinn it permits of an allowance
for covers of the iriAn hole of a sewer
or any other break In the pavement.'
The Supremo court convened princi
pally to take action on the death of
the late Chief Justice Green, but be
fore adjourning handed down several
orders. The rules of the court were
also promulgated. The rules are tho
same that havo been In force, with the
exception of one, which Is amended so
that tho appellant's attorney In a suit
Is compelled to state the quertlon In
volved in six lines In the paper book
or otherwise tho suit, will bo taken off
the docket.
The Koehlor case was tho only ono
from this county passed upon.

An Answer Filed.
Tho answer of tho Delaware, Lacka
wanna nnd Wesern Railroad company
to the bill In comity filed some time
ago by the Tripp Farm Land company
In Its suit against the railroad com
pany was filed yesterday by Wlllard,
Warren & Knapp, representing the de
fendant company.
The suit was brought 'to prevent the
rnllroad company from filling In a cul
vert Just north of Tripp's crossing, on
which tho main line crosses Bedford
street. It Is contended by tho land
company that It bought the land with
the expressed understanding that this
culvert was to be maintained. It was
provided for, It Is contended, when tho
railroad went through the Trlpp farm
land to assure a safe means of getting
from one section to the other of the
several farm lands.
In the answer It Is set forth by the
company that It Is under no obligations
whatever to keep the culvert open, and
quotes from Its deeds for its right of
way at that point to prove the fact.
Mrs. Miller Is Aggrieved.
Mrs. Eva Miller yesterday began an

Tobacco Boxes, Pipe Racks,
well ns practical, are ever In demand. Women buy them
ostensibly for their liege lord's use, but really, because they
are so decorative, and who can blame them when they can
pick up such nice novelties at our store from 25c Jo 50c?
They really look as though they cost five times as much.
