but one to Mr. Many's, sliw'tcd on the
1 etui n Journey throttnh the hip Held
about !i. I.'i o'clock p. in. They had pro
ceeded about seventy-live yards into
the dark Held when they espied a man
sttolliii"; on ahead of them. They al
tered their course somewhat to 11 void
passim? near him, and w'te roIiik iiIoiik
unmindful of harm and without further
thought of Ihe man, who ha i been lost
sight of in the darkness, when Middenly
from a hollow, which they were Just
about to cross, the dark llgure of a
man spuing up belore Ihem and made
nil attempt to .seise the neare.--t girl.
He stumbled as he was about to lay
hold of her, and she thus escap'-d his
clutch. Mefore he could make another
grab, the gills were iipeeding away In
the direction when they came, shout
ing at the top of their voices for help.
Secretary Mahy heard the screams,
and taking his revolver, rushed out to
Investigate. The girls by (his time had
reached Qulncy avenue again, and al
nui'.t ran Into Mr. Mahy as he emerged
ftom his front gate. The villain still
inif-ued them, but when he saw them
reach a point of safely ills disappoint

lly a largo cobble, which nairowly
missed one girl's head and bounded
ueioss the stieet.

stood stolidly watching .Mr. Mahy

was within Ill'teen yards or so, when
he raised a pistol slowly and deliber

halt 111 111. Leveling his own revolver,
he routined the lire, while advanclns;
on a inn, and as the whiz of the bullet
and the Hash of the powder showed
that it was not a case of filing in the

low and scooted down the hill. Mr.
Mahy followed, firing as he ran, till the
live chnmbcis of his revolver were
empty, but as on the occasion of a visit
from a. burglar live weeks ago, the
shooting was all in vain, and lief 01 e
they had half crossed tlte commons the

the aid of his terror- Inged heels, that
he succeeded 111 losing himself la the

A SPIKE MILL
FOR SCRANT0N
NATURE OF INDUSTRY SECURED
BY BOARD OF TRADE.
The Name of the Firm Is Timrncs &
Hecht, nnd They Are at Present
Located in Brooklyn, N. Y., Where
They Operate a Big Spike Mill and
Galvanizing Plant They Will Es
tablish, in Addition, a Rolling
Mill In This City Buildings Will
Cover 32,025 Squnre Feet.
The exact nature of the new Industry
which Is to bu located In tho Kovscr
Vnlley, lu West Scranton, through tho
efforts of the board of trade, as previ
ously mentioned In The Tribune, can
now be disclosed. It Is to be a rolling
mill, with a splko mill and n gulvnnlss
Ing plant In conjunction.
Tlie niiino of tho firm Is Tlmmcs &
Hecht, und they come from Hrooklyn,
N. Y where they nro at piesent
located on North Sixth street. Mr.
'Ninnies and his father befjorc him have
been In tho same business for sixty
years. Mr. Hecht Is a now partner,
taken In within the past two months.
Mr, Tlmmcs was in tho city vester
dny with tho plans and specifications
for the foundations for the buildings to
be erected, and was to have met a
number of local contractors In the
morning. He discovered, however, that
a change would have to bo made In the
plans before lie could secure bids, and
ho accordingly left them with a local
architect for alteration.
He left on the 3.30 train for New
York, leaving Instructions with Secre
tary Atherton to secure bids on the re
vised plntiH and forward them to him
for consideration. Ho will return here
next Monday, when ho will confer with
Mr. Hecht, and award tho contract,
Mr. Heohl will arrive the latter end of
this week and will permanently locate
here.
TO HUSH BUILDINGS.
The Idea Is to get the foundations of
the buildings completed before the
snowy weather sets in, so that the
work of erecting the superstructures
can be commenced in tho spring, as
soon as tlio weather permits.
Tharo are to be live buildings and
after a glance at tholr dimensions It
is not surprising that 4 1-3 ncrea of
land were purchased by Messrs. Tlm
mes and Hecht. Tho buildings and
their dimensions are ns follows:
Rolling mill, 200x80 feet; spike mill.
l.'iOxijO feet: galvanizing plant, 125x23
feet; warehouse, I5i)x;'.0 feet; office,
liOxuO feet.
All the buildings will be of frame
construction, one story high. On ac
count of the nature of the Industry
it is probable that tho ceilings will be
at least twenty feet high.
In the rolling mill, the machlnery
for which is being now purchased by
Air. Hecht, the Iron rods for the manu
facture of spikes will be prepared. The
fit m .manufactures railroad, boat, ship
and dock spikes of all kinds and all
sizes. At present they buy their bar
iron already prepared, but they have
decided that it will ba cheaper to pre
pare il themselves.
'galvanizing plant.
In the galvanizing plant, whiidi is a
new industry in this valley, they will
galvanize certain varieties' of their
spikes and will be prepared to do any
and all kinds of galvanizing work
which may be sent them.
They expect to have their plant in
operation by the early part of next
summer. It Is undei stood that Sec
retary Atherton's estimate of the num
ber of men who would be employed
was much too conservative and that
when operations are commenced no less
than ISO men will be given employ
ment. For Sale.
