VERY SUCCESSFUL CASE.
Lottie Finnegnn, Who Was Operated
on for Appendicitis, Home from
Hospital.
Let tie Kil'iVRau, aged ten yars,
dfiilghter of Mr. and Mrs. M. X. Fin
ncgan, of Pike street, was discharged
yesterday from Kinergenc." hospital,
where lour -oks ago she was oper
ated upon for appendicitis.
The recovery of the nbl Is considered
remarkable, and the hospital statf are
exceedingly gratilled over the success
of the operation, as the case was un
hesitatingly pronounced the most diin
cult to manage of any of abdominal
trouble receive d at the hospital since It
was founded.
The pitleiit. wh-u admitted to the
hospital, was in a condition which in
dicated the mnr ircsenc of death, Eihe
was suite! big from general peritonitis,
the whiil of the intestinal tract being
Involved, This was the consequence of
the dlsp.-iscd condition of the appendix,
the gill having been a sufferer from
appendicitis I'm- over a yenr. though
the seal of the tumble could not be
located. The day she was received at
the hospital, there was but mcagr-
hepe that she would recover. The
chances favoring an operation, this
was carried out by Dr. John Xiles ns
the i hief operator. The appendix was
fi uiiil to Imvp hpis'led ami It was
giadually disintegrating. It required
tin- niiiit delicate skill in handling the
case, and the nurses worn required to
lie exceedingly watchful and attentive
in tliojr care of tip. patient. After a
few days sin- showed signs of improve
r.eiil. which ineieased until she was
si on declared out of danger. She gained
steadily, and Is now at In. me witli her
pai cuts and on the road to perfect
laalth.
While the hospital staff feels quite
Jubilant over the sucoos.-s nf the case,
the parents of the ir, whose life has
beep preserved, rc-arcely know how to
expires the giatiluile t l:t-- feci, and
they desire, tliioiigh The Tribune, to
publielv testify to the olllciene.v of the
methods of Kmcrgency hospital, and of
their warin-henriorl gnuiiude for the
peisional attention and klr.dtio-:- of the
hospital staff.

REPORTED TROUBLE
AMONG CAR MEN
Differences Between Traction Com
pany Superintendent and Em
ployes Over a Rulo of tho Com
pany About Luncheon Hour,
Tlie laying off for thiee clays of one
of the employes of tho traction com
pany, conductor Tlghe, Is reported to
lie the causo of differences between
the men and Division Superintendent
Kelly.
Aeeoidlug to the Information given
out by the employes, Tlghe was laid
oil' this week for a week for an al
leged violation of the company's rules
eating his lunch while tho car was
cnrolltp between Peckvllle and this
city. The elallii Is made bv the men
t'lat toey are not allotted adequate
time for luncheon and must needs
take It when the opportunity orfq-t,
nt on tills occasion, A protest was
made, the Tribune was Informed, to
superintendent Kelly against T.'ulni's
suspension and It was said tint the
mutter would be taken before den
eral Manager Silllinan at Scrim ton
for his consideration and adjustment.
When apprised of this, Superin
tendent Kelly Informed the Tribune
lepresentalivp that there was a con
ductor suspended 'for three days, be
cause he violated a rule of t'ie com
pany by seating himself In Ills car
and enjoying a ride while on duty.
This rule, he said, had been violated
frequently of late, and action was
necessary in this instance, be said
to enforce discipline. Xo commit
tee waited on him, Silperlnlemlen
Kelly s-nlcl, and he was not. aware cf
anv visit of the same lo the Scrantoi
olhc-e of the company.
A meeting of the conductors and nic
tormeii is reported to be called fr
Sunday to discuss the rule which is
said to be the cause cTf the troilbe.
DR. GILLIS IMPROVING.
He Was Able to Join His Family at
Breakfast on Thursday, and Con
tinues to Improve Daily.
It will be cheerful news lo the frbiidf
of Dr. A. F. fiillls. and these are to be
found in every quarter of the city, that
he Is steadily impioving, to the extent
that on Thursday nf this week he was
aide to sit with Ills family at the break
fast table.
Dr. CIIUs has been dangeiously ill,
the attack that prostrated him was of
the Riavest, and his iinpiovenicnt has
necessarily been slow, but since he be
gan to Improve his progress -ow.irds
iree.-ery has been steady and most en
couraging. As evidence of his progress It can be
riled that now there is only one nurse
in attendance, the second one having
been loleased a few days ago.
The affected eye is gi, (dually but
slowly healing. The discharge of pus
Is lessening appreciably and instead of
tlie organ requiring attention and
treatment every quarter of an hour,
the- nurse now needs to dress It but
ence an hour.
Signs of his Improvement are maul
tested in Dr. dills' condition In numer
ous wa, and there will be much cln
lion throughout the city over the an
nouncement of this cheerful news.
ANOTHER "MAD DOG" SCARE.
A Yellow Cur Causes Excitement
Amone; People on Rock Avonue.
Carbondale had another "mad" dog
scare yesterday. This time it was the
residents of Knelt avenue, who were
startled by the supposedly mad can
ine's antics. About !i o'clock yester
day forenoon, a man who was visibly
agitated, told between his short
breaths, that a canine furiously at
tacked him while lie was going along
Rock avenue. The man showed no
marks from the canine's teeth, but he
was quite omphalic about the cur's
fury. The sanitary ollleer lepalrod to
the scene fo the dog's misbehavior and
located a slckl looking cur, which he
made a subject of for the dc-ssleating
works. It is hardly supposed that the
dog was mad, but was suffering from
colic, as theie is a garbage ground
near the place which dogs frequent
and it is likely that the cur came
across some eatable which was too
much for his digestion and was en
deavoring to lelievo himself when he
came across the man who charged the
canine with being mad.
EXCURSION ON MONDAY.
An Event That Will Attract Hun
dreds to Lake Lodore.
An event that will attract hundreds
to beautiful Lake Lodore Is the ex
cursion that the Catholic Renevolent
Women's Legion will conduct to Unit
popular resort on Monday next.

Coughlln, of this city, will be the offi
cial baker of the clams. Mr. Cciugh
lln's skill In preparing ami serving has
often been attested nnd this feature
will undoubtedly be among tho best
patronized of the day.

results.
