OLERCJYMAN FINED BY MAYOR.
Rev. F. S. Ballentlne Rodo His Dl
cyclo Without a Light.
new F. S. HaJlentlne, rector of
Christ's Uplscopal church, nnd four
other gentlemen wore- orralgned be
fore Mayor Molr yesterday on th"
charge of riding bicycles without
lighted lamps. They had been arrested
on Thursday night by Special Officers
Malott nnd Donlln.
Hew Mr. Uallcntlne undertook tho
defense of himself and his four fol
low prisoners. Ho contended that tho
ordinance prohibiting .tho riding of
bicycles without lighted lamps wan nn
Iniquitous monsuro and ho told Mayor
Moir that he should be ashamed to en
force It. He said It was special and
class legislation and that It Interfered
with the constitutional rights of the
Ncltlzen.
-mores a parnuie, saiu .Mayor
Molr, "which 1 have no doubt, Mr.
flallentlne, you have often preached a
sermon upon. It tells about tho wlce
and the foolish virgins, and how the
foolish virgins had no oil In their
lamps. Tho foolish virgins were pun
ished and bo must you be."
"Hut I had oil In my lamp," retorted
tho clergyman.
"Yes," replied tho mayor, but you
did not, like tho wise virgins, have It
lighted. I lino you nil $3 each." Later,
tho lino as to Mr. Hallentlne was re
mitted. RECRUITING MEN FOR
THE STANDING ARMY
Lieut. Howell Has Opened n. Recruit
ing' Office In This City What He
Says About tho Service.
Recent legislation by congress in
creasing tho regular army and the ne
cessity of replacing tho 33,000 volun
teers In tho Philippines has made It
necessary for the war department to
enlist not less than 35,000 men at tho
earliest possible date.
Tho army recruiting service has been
extended, and Scranton, from Its size
and as a railroad centre, has been se
lected as a central recruiting station
for Northeastern Pennsylvania, and a
recruiting office has ibeer opened at 12.1
Wyoming avenue by Lieutenant M. W.
Rowell, Fifth United States cavalry.
In nn Interview, Lieutenant Rowell
stated that it was hardly to be ex
pected that the number of recruits de
sired could lie secured so quickly as In
1S88 nnd 1$U9, when there existed' so
strong a desire to participate In tho
wars with Spain and In the Philippines,
but that no difficulty Is anticipated In
enlisting 35,000 men within four or live
months.
Lieutenant Rowell stated that dur
ing tho last ten years a remarkable
change has taken place with respect to
tho character of men who enlist In tho
army. The men who served In tho
"old" army, Immediately after tho
Civil war, did their work all right in
fighting Indians and In opening up and
protecting tho frontier, during which
service they often uncomplainingly en
dured even hardships, such as the bit
ter cold of tho north, or the scorching
heat or the southern deserts, and tho
living on reduced rations, even being
sometimes compelled to eat the mule3
In their pack trains.
These men, while often rough and ad
venturous, were brave and hardy, yet
there Is no difficulty In tracing tho
evolution of the soldier from this type
to the zealous, Intelligent, honest and
still manly and hardy fellow who to
day Is found In tho ranks, and who,
with little training, often surpasses
the former type In a quick, cheerful
and Intelligent obedience to commands
in fact, an order Is today often an
ticipated. Recent experiences have
shown that tho modern type of Ameri
can soldier, honest, manly, CJod-fear-ing,
intelligent, cheerful and zealous,
and physically active and sound, has
done hlu work well on tho firing line,
has endured patiently weary weeks
lying In trenches, while exposed to
tropical fevers, and has uncomplain
ingly met every hardship and priva
tion to which ho has been subjected In
the tropics.
Those who are in a position to Judge,
affirm that there never was a better
nrmy In tho history of the world than
the corps which Shatter took to Santi
ago In 1S9S, that this army marked the
hlgh-tldo of the efficiency of the Indi
vidual American soldier. This chango
which has taken nlace In the person
nel of the nrmy has been gradual since
tho Civil war, but was most rapid "d.
tween 1S93 and 1S97, when the general
business depression brought Into tho
ranks a splendid class of men the re
cruiting officers during these years be
ing able to select their men nnd actual
ly rejecting about S3 per cent, of tho
applicants, often on slight mental,
moral or physical defects.
However, this Is not alone tho cause
of the improvement. Other causes had
been Introduced nnd carefully fostered
by careful and painstaking company
officers for n number of years, among
which are the following: Tho estab
lishment of a post exchango or sol
diers' club, tho profits of which go to
ward tho Improvement of tho soldiers'
mc?s; tho Improvement of tho barracks
and the sanitary conditions at army
posts; tho introduction of calisthenics
and athletlo exercises, in addition to
tactical training; the garrisoning of
posts near large centers of population,
by means of which tho soldier was
more frequently brought Into contact
with tho people, and particularly the
appointment of commissioned officers
from tho ranks. Of course, there are
other causes which conduced to Uie
health and comfort of tho soldier and
mado the army more attractlvo to
men of good mental and moral stand
ing, but tho abovo aro tho principal
causes, and they are 'being as carefully
fostered today as in tho past. In fact,
the opportunities for promotion from
the ranks, after two years of service,
are moro abundant than over before,
and with the increase of tho army, aro
bound to remain so.
Lieutenant Rowell expects to estab
lish sub or branch Btatlona later In
the spring at towns in Northeastern
Pennsylvania radiating from Scranton.
Recruits aro Just now particularly de
sired for servlco In tho Philippines,
and upon enlistment aro sent to Phila
delphia for clothing nnd are then for
warded to n. western rendezvous for
brief Instruction, when they aro sent
forward, usually via San Francisco", to
Manila.

LOST MINER
FOUND ALIVE
DISCOVERED TOTTERING ALONG
A MAIN ROAD.
Not Much the Worse for His
Six Days' Thrilling .experience.
Thought He Had Been in the Mine
Only a Day or So Supposition
That Ho Encounterd a Body of
Black Damp, Became Stupefied nnd
and Fell Into a Sleep After Acci
dentally Stumbling Upon Good Air.
John Zylankus, tho Polander, who
was lost In the Johnson mine last Sat
urday, has been found. Ho was dis
covered yesterday morning at 6 o'clock
tottering down the main road In tho
third vein guiding himself In the dark
ness by tho trolloy wlro along the roof.
Ono of his own countrymen, John
Nartorlsky, was the first man to en
counter him. Nnrtorlskey was going
to his chamber along the main road
nnd when about half a mllo from tho
foot of the shaft saw a man coming
toward3 him without a lamp and grop
ing his way In tho darkness by run
ning his hand along tho trolley wire.
Nartorlskcy recognized him nt once ns
tho missing Hylankus and rushed for
ward to his assistance.
Kylankus begged at once for some
thing to eat and Nartorlskcy gave him.
a piece of bread and a frankfurter.
Zylankus gulped these down and de
manded more, but Nnrtorlskey would
not let him have It, knowing that It
was dangerous to nlow him to cat any
largo quantity of heavy food until his
system has boon nourished by cautious
dieting.
Another miner came up ns Zylankus
was finishing his frankfurter and gave
him his tea bottle. Zylankus drank
tho whole of tho pint of tea without
taking tho bottle from his hend.
TAKEN TO SURFACE.
Then ho started for the shaft with
the two miners assisting him. He was
hoisted to the surface and as soon as
his eyes became accustomed to the
daylight he walked unnlded to his
boarding house on Madison avenue,
three hundred yards away, nccomta
nled by a largo crowd which g:ov
constantly In number as the news of
tho finding rapidly spread through tho
Johnson's patch settlement. There
was great rejoicing, especially among
Zylankus' countrymen.
Dr. McGreevy, of Dunmore, who wns
summoned by tho company olflcluls,
made an examination of Zylankus soon
after the later reached home. He
found him greatly weakened, of course,
but wholly free from any symptom of
permanent disability. Tho doctor says
he will pull through all right with
proper care.
Xylankus Is 17 years old but large for
his age and ot vigorous constitution.
His hands and aims were cowrid with
cuts and gashes lesultlng from the
groping tactics ho had to adopt when
his oil was exhausted. His knees nnd
lower parts of his legs were badly
contused from creeping over falls nnd
through narrow openings and his cloth
ing was thoroughly soaked with water
and encrusted with oulm.
He hasn't the slightest Idea of how
he came to lose his way or In what
direction he wandered. Most of the
time, he says, he was near a body of
water. This the old miners say would
Indicate that he was In an old working
in the No. 3 vein at a place called
"Shepherd's Dip." This, however, is
only conjecture. It may have been
any one of a number of places In va
rious parts of tho mine wheie there
are permanent lodgments of water. ,
TOOK A SHORT ROUTE.
After he left the fire boss' shanty, he
says, ho went towards his chamber by
a short route through some old work
ings. He had been through them sev
eral times before, when he worked at
the mines seven days last December,
and thought he knew tho way.
Tho route which ho took passes
through oiily about fifty yards of old
workings and is much traversed as the
round about route along the main road
Is three times as far. It Is supposed
that Instead of cutting straight
through tho old workings Kylankus
turned nt a right angle when he wns
half way across and headed Into the
labyrinth or abandoned chambers.
When he realized that he was lost he
turned to retrace his steps and kept
walking as rapidly as ho could in the
direction In which he supposed he had
come. It Is now supposed that Instead
ot beating a retreat he was all the
time pushing on farther into tho work
ings or wnnderlng around Iregularly.
After his oil wus exhausted he threw
away his lamp and diner pall and be
gan groping his way. Ho was In ono
plnco for a long time where the roof
was po low that he was continually
bumping his head nnd finally was com
pelled to crawl on his hands and knees.
He became exhausted, he says, after
a time and took a sleep.. He thinks ho
slept only for a Uiort jhile, probably
a few hours, he pays. 'When he awoke
he resumed his wandering, walking or
creeping, according to the height of tho
roof and feeling ahead, above or
around him with his hands constantly.
TIME NOT COUNTED.
He does not know whether It was
hours or days from the tlmo he woke
up and resumed his wanderings until
ho was rewarded yesterday morning
by discovering the trolley cable abovo
his head. Ho knew this would lead

him to tho foot of tho shaft, and he
proceeded to follow It. The current
hnd not been turned on, us the motor
was not running nt night, and tho day
shift had not yet gone on duty.
One of his first questions upon teach
ing the surfaco was whether or not tt
was Sunday. Ah It was Saturday morn
ing when he became lost, this would
show that he believed ho hud not been
lost more than a day or so.
When this fact wns communicated
genctully, the older minors ono nnd nil
agreed that Hylankus had slept the
greater portion of tho time ho was
missing.
They say he, very likely, wandered
Into some old working where there was
a body of 'black damp, tmt before be
coming asphyxiated got away from It
and accidentally stumbled upon good
air. Tho Wack damp had, however,
poisoned his system nnd brought on a.
stupefaction that lasted possibly four
or five days.
Hy this theory alone can tho failure
of tho searching parties to find htm be
explained. If it was not that he wns
lying In somo out of the way place In
a stupor, the searchers all declare,
somo of them surely would have at
tracted his .attention, ns overy portion
of the mine was visited with lights,
and at every few hundred feet tho
searchers shouted uud listened for u
reply. In somo parts of the mine, whero
the air Is bad, tho searchers were com
pelled to he content with safety lamps.
This gives but a dim. light, and ono
who was senrchlng with ono of them
might almost walk over nn object
without seeing It.
THE DOGS FAILED.
The hunters who went In with the
five trained doqs, Wednesday, aro
wholly at a loss to explain the failure
of their sagacious animals to pick up
tho scent. They are confident that the
dogs frequently crossed nnd re-crossed
Zylonkus' Hall. One of tho dogs, they
say, suddenly darted oft and was gone
for about nn hour, and It was thought
ho had struck the scent, but when ho
returned and was headed 'back under
leash, he refused to work.
Prompted by curiosity, a number of
tho men who participated In tho search
propose to make a hunt for Kylonkus'
dinner pall and lamp, that they mny
be nblo to get some Idea of what part
of tho workings ho wandered Into.
Zylonkus says he did not eat or
drink anything nil the time ho was
lost. When he cast aside his dinner
pall, that he might have the freedom
of his hands In feeling his way, tho
dinner hnd not been touched. He was
too excited to eat, ho says, and did not
think ho was going to be unable to find
his way back to traveled road for six
days,
W. C. T. U. SOCIAL.

BEALE TAKEN
INTO CUSTODY
IS TO BE SENTENCED TODAY FOR
EMBEZZLEMENT.
Was Bi ought in on nn Attachment
in the Ketcham Case nnd Effected
a Settlement, but Court Directed
That He Be Hold for Sentence in
tho Mendo Case nnd Ho Was Re
manded to the Custody of tho
Sheriff Was Later Released on
Ball.
Unless something Intervenes before 0
o'clock this morning to chango tho
current of things, Attorney Ocorgo W.
Bealo will be called upon to pay tho
penalty for tho crime of embezzlement
of which ho wns convicted In Decem
ber, 1S99, in the locnl court.
Through tolerance of the court,
Reulo has succeeded In staving off for
a long time tho visitation of tho penal
ty for his shortcomings, which will
likely come on him today.
Last Monday an attachment was Is
sued by Judgo Archbnld for Healo's
apprehension and Deputy Sheriff H. F.
Ferber was directed to bring him In
to answer for having failed to obey
nn order of court In tho Ketcham case,
In which he wits charged with misap
propriating $100 of a client's funds.
B. S. Ketcham, who Is now serving
a sl'q months' term In the county Jail
for embezzling $IC0 of tho funds of the
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, ot
which he was treasurer, had Beale as
his nttorney.
Whllo the ca?o was awaiting trial,
Ttealo told hla client It would be best
to settle wit h tho Trust company,
which was Ketoham's security and
which wns prosecuting the case. He
thought this could be dono upon the
payment of $100. A. E. Ketcham, a
brother of the accused, came to the
rescue with the necessary hundred dol
lars, turning It over to Beale, taking
his receipt for It, and stipulating that
It should not be transferred to the
trust company until n verdict ot not
guilty was duly entered.
KETCHAM CONVICTED.
The cwse went to trial and Ketcham
was convicted. Then tho brother who
had advanced tho $100 demanded Its re
turn from Beale. Ho didn't get It, nnd
through an attorney secured a rule Oc
tober 5, 1900, to compel Beale to show
cause why he should not pay over the
J100.
Beale made no answer to the allega
tions contained In tho petition on
which the rule was. based, and. linally
court mado nn order directing him to
pay over the $100, at the same time
.Issuing an attachment to enforce It.
Beale made as an offset against the
$100 a claim for $30 counsel fees nnd
brought suit against A. E. Ketcham
before Alderman J. W. Millet and got
Judgment for tho amount. An appeal
has been taken.
When arraigned yesterday under this
attachment Beale effected a, settlement
by giving to Ketcham a secured noto
for tho $100. There was tho Mead em
bezzlement, nlso, nnd Judgo Archbald
directed that ho be held for sentence.
Ho was remanded to the custody of the
sheriff, but secured his release by giv
ing surety in the sum of $300, fur
nished by G. L. Clark, for his appenr
anco this morning for sentence.
In the Meade case Beale stands con
victed of having embezzled about $1,000
from the funds of an estate of which
ho was executor.
R. K. Ellis died In Dalton In 1S91. In
his will he named Beale as executor.
Part of the Ellis estate was $3,100 In
cash, which was deposited In tho First
National bank. A few days after se
curing letters as executor, Beale
checked this money out of the bank.
Tho estate was dtv.dod Into three
equal parts, according to the terms of
the will. Mrs. Esther Meade, a sur
viving daughter, received one share;
the children of a deceased sister In
this city got another shnie, and the
third went to the children of a de
ceased brother in Wisconsin.
CITED TO ACCOUXT.
May 22, 1S93, Beale was cited to make
an account of the estate. His account
showed that $4,921.97 of the moneys
remained In his hands. Joseph O'Brien
was appointed auditor and his report
showed that $1,529.19 of the cash be
longed to Mrs. Meade, About this
time, Mrs. iMeade died and her ron,
Henry Meade, who was nnmed as exe
cutor, secured a rule, 'March 33, 1SSE, to
compel Beale to pay over to him his
mother's share of tho state.
Proceedings under this rule dragged
along till January, 1S97, and finally
Henry Meade lodged against him In
formation charging embezzlement.
Bealo succeeded In staving oft trial un
til December, 1S99, when he was ar
raigned and convicted. His defense
was that Mrs. Meade authorized him
to Invest the money for her In the
Morris Run Coal company, In which
he wns Interested, and that when the
company failed the money was lost.
The prosecution showed that at the
time Bealo alleges Mrs. Meade wns in
his office giving him the authorization
In question she was a bed-ridden In
valid. Beale asked for n new trial, but It
was lefused, and ho was directed to
present himself for sentence. Tho char
ity of the court nnd representations by
Beale'a counsel that ho would settle
up his defalcation, resulted In sentenco
