FORBADE THE OPERATION
Gertrude Reddington's Aunt Sent a
Dramatic Mandate to the
Lackawanna Hospital.
Gertrude Iteddlngton. of Olyphant,
the young woman who swallowed a
plate of false teeth and Is now receiv
ing treatment at the Lackawanna hos
pital, suffered such great pain yester
day that It was decided to operate
with a view to removing the disturb
ing molars.
Miss Hedillngton was perfectly will
ing to submit to an operation and last
night was set for its time. The X-rays
machine was placed in readiness, all
the physicians were present and the
operation was soon to be begun, when
at the last moment the patient's aunt
forbade tho doctors from undertaking
any such course.
The girl's guardian, however, favors
an operation, and It Is likely that it
will be conducted today.
THIRTIETH PUBLIC RECITAL.
It Was Given by the Conservatory
Pupils Last Night.
The thirtieth public recital given by
the Conservatory last evening was the
fourth of their extended closing series.
The audience missed tile genla! pres
ence of tile director, Mr. Pennington,
who is ill at his home. At lirst the ab
sence of tho man whose personality
has made possible this institution, was
felt to bo a distinct loss. As tho pro
gramme proceeded, however, and each
number was rendered with verve and
accuracy, the excellence of Mr. Pon
nlngs' assistants and tho thoroughness
of all the student work stood out in
bold relief.
One class in general training, two in
sight playing and one in ensemble
work gave very delightful number.
Solos were played by many students
from ten years old up, and every one
showed evidence of the most careful
instruction. The most ambitious num
ber given was tho first movement of
Mozart's Concerto in C major, played
by .Miss Wngenhurst, who, besides be
ing an advanced student In the Con
servatory, is one of the successful
teachers of this cily.llii T. Huffinastor
played tho orchestral parts upon a sec
ond piano. Miss Clara Urownlng, who
played the "Spinning Song," by Jvlioltr,
deserves special mention for her bril
liant rendition of a dlfllcult number.
A. G. Morse, the now business man
ager, announced the engagement of
.Miss Kthel Annie Stone, of the Kaelten
Pianoforte school, as an additional
teacher in (lie Conservatory next year.
Mr. Morse also explained the system of
annual public tests and reports, the
first of which will be given next week.
Professor Pennington, it Is expected,
will resume his work In a week and
will conduct the remaining closing re
citals upon Saturday afternoon, Juno
--, and Thursday evening, June 27.
HER MIND UNBALANCED
Effect Upon New Nurie of Sight of
Physical Suffering.
Miss ICdna Hailey, of Carbondalc,
who for a short time recently was a
probationer at the Lackawanna 'hos
pital training school for nurses, has
been taken to an asylum fur treatment,
as her mind is completely unbalanced.
This Is duo In a large measure to the
effect upon her nervous system of tho
unaccustomed sights of physical pain
and suffering which ctinio under her
observation at tho 'hospital.
Her condition was noticed by the
superintendent, Miss Kraemer, who
notllied the young woman's father and
three days after her entry Into the
hospital sho was taken hack to her
home,

STRAIN WAS
TOO GREAT
Mrs. Bevilacniia, the Accused Mnr
dercsfiot Mam Rose, Collapses
on the Witness Stand.
SAD SIGHT PRESENTED
Likelihood That on Account of Her
Shattered Health, tho Case Will
Be Terminated by a Plea of Man
slaughter Believed She Cannot
Live Many Months Even with tho
Halter from Around Her Neck.
Testimony for tho Defense. Tonds
to Show That There Were,as Usual,
Two Sides to the Story Mrs. Bev
ilacqua Carried a Revolver on
Account of Her Fear of Mrs. Rose.
t'tter physical collapse has come
upon (ho unfortunate Josephine Uevll
aenun. who Is being tried for the kill
ing of Mary Rose, and the probabili
ties are the trial will be terminated
today by tho acceptance of a plea of
manslaughter.
Yesterday afternoon, while on the
stand, Mrs. P"vllacfini twice fell into
ft state of coma and finally, complete
ly exhausted, she swooned away. She
was cared for In the law library by
Coroner Roberts mid after being re
suscitated was taken back to Jail. In
the meantime a proposition was being
discussed to terminate the case by
entering a plea of guilty of man
slaughter. Xo conclusion was arrived
at. but this morning the conference
between the attorneys will be resumed,
and in all likelihood the trial will be
brought to an end. l
It Is believed Mrs. Hovllnoqua can
not live more than a few months at
all events. The terrible strain she is
undergoing now has tended consider
ably towards shortening her days, and
In the opinion of some, if she is com
pelled to undergo this Intense strain
to the end of the week, there is dan
ger of her dying at any minute.
She was in a weak condition, from
confinement at the time of the shoot
ing, and when she was cast Into a
prison cell and left alone with the
thoughts of her awful crime for seven
months, her system began to grow
weaker ami weaker, until Dually, about
n month ago she was so reduced in
vitality that fainting spells frequent
ly prostrated her, and heroic, meas
ures had sometimes to bo adopted to
bring her hack to consciousness.
During the four days of the trial,
preceding tho time she was called to
the stand, Mrs. Rovllaequa, seemed to
evince little nr -no concern about what
was going on around her. She sat
with bent head and closed eyelids, per
fectly motionless, for long stretches
of time. The deathly pallor of her
features and her generally emaciated
appearance gave her n death-like look,
and before the first day of the trial
was over there was a general opinion
she would not live to go tn tho scaf
fold, even though convicted of first
degree murder.
A PITJARLK SPKCTACLK.
X'o more pitiable spectacle was ever
beheld in the court house than that
which was presented yesterday while
Mrs. Rovllaequa was on the stand. No
man who ever knew a mother or sis
ter could look upon it without suffer
ing a shock.
A commonwealth, with nil Its great
power and resources, was seeking to
assuage its offended peace, by sending
her to the gallows. Its representa
tives, reluctantly of course, but with
a. stolid determination, born of their
sense of the sworn obligation upon
them, wore trying to bring out from
her own lips admissions that would
tighten the baiter already about hor
neck. The relatives of the woman she
had slain were grouped not for in
ftont of her to keep alive in her ex
cited mind, Hie horrible thoughts of
the deed which brought lier to tlio
soul-racking position she then was oc
cupying. The jurors, lawyers, the
Judge, court attaches, witnesses and
spectators crowded close about her to
catch her faintly-uttered words and
served incidentally to Intensify in her
mind's eyo her hopeless Imprisonment.
So weak wero her words that tho
Interpreter had to bend his ear to with
in a few Inches of her lips to distin
guish them, Not Infrequently be
would have to repent n question two or
three, times before he could bring her
to understand It. It would seem at
times that she became stuplfied and
wholly oblivious of everything, On
these occasions her eyes would he tlxed
straight ahead, her hands would ho
clasped tightly at her bolt, and appar
ently even her respiration had censed,
"I cannot mako her hear me," tho
interpreter would say. There would
be a wait, a minute would pass, and
tho closing of tho eyelids would be a
sign that the woman was coming out
of her coma. Thou tho question would
bo repeated. Her lips would be seen
to move, thoso sitting near could hear

n few whispered words, and tho Inter
preter, straightening tip, would an
nounce "She says she does not remem
ber," or whatever tho answer hap
pened tn be,
addkd to inert SORROW.
Her lirlght-fiiced little babe, a child
of il ycnrti, toddled about the court
loom chumming with whomever she
chiinced to encounter, trying to clam
ber on the laps of the spectators, the
chairs nr Jury railing, and onco hud
dling up on the floor against the moth
er of tho woman her mother hud killed.
Most of tho time Mrs. llcvllnequn was
on the stand, however, the child played
about the witness box, Onco tho lit
tle one nestled her head on her moth
er's knees and dozed there for several
minutes. The mother did not sconi to
notice her until the babe, who evident
ly had fallen fast nsloep, slid from Its
resting place it ml rolled 1 1 the lloor
The mother opened her eyes, looked
nt the nbe, gave n start and then
uvi i! en the Hyiiiploms of nop 'oaclnng
O'll.'l.
The Interpreter, who was fanning
her nil the time, redoubled his efforts.
Attorney Jones hastily brought somq
water nml tried to get her to drink,
but she only stared straight abend
Into vacancy, with every muscle seem
ingly dead. Her husband enmc hur
riedly over with a cup of water and a
small vial containing a stimulant that
Jail Physician Sultry lmd proscribed.
A few drops from tho vial wore placed
In the cup nnd somo of the mixture
poured between her lips. If she swal
lowed any of It the act was seemlngTv
done Involuntarily. It failed of Its
purpose for she sat stock still, staring
straight ahead, hearing nothing and
not responding oven to her husband's
queries,
When several minutes had passed
and there wore no signs of her revival,
It was decided to question her no far
ther for the present nnd the interpre
ter was told to Inform her that she
might leave the stand. She gave no
Indication of hearing what was said
to her, and the Interpreter took her
by the arm to lead her from tho box.
Still she sat like as If dead. Her hus
band, the Interpreter and an Italian
friend gathered about her, raised her
up tenderly and carried her to hor
chair at tho defendant's table. As
soon as she was seated, every muscle
In her body seemed to suddenly relax
and she sank limp and motionless Into
the chair.
CORONKR TRBATKD HKIk
Coroner Roberts hurried to her side
and tried to administer some of the
stimulant, which had been prescribed
for hor nt the Jail, but by this time
tlie facial muscles began to twitch nnd
before the mixture could be made, her
lips wero firmly compressed In a fright
fully distorted position.
It was feared she was dying, and
Judge Halsey directed that she be re
moved to the law library and given
medical attendance. Two tipstaves
carried her out in tho chair and Cor
oner Roberts sent for some medicines.
This was at ikl." o'clock. At
4.110 she was brought out of the
swoon and carried back to jail. She
was reported, last night, to be im
proved and will likely bo able to be
taken back to court In tho morning.
As a murder trial can only be pro
ceeded with in the presence of the de
fendant, the case bad to be adjourned,
the moment Mrs. Bovllacqua swooned,
as in tho eyes of the law unconscious
ness is equivalent to absence.
Wlui t little testimony was adduced
fiom the defendant proved that while
tho crime was wholly unjustifiable
there was a side to the story other
than that told by the commonwealth's
witnesses. In effect It was as follows:
Mrs. Revilacqua. and her husband
came to this country three years ago
last Juno, and went to live In the
same house with the Rosos, on New
York street, the Rose's occupying the
upper and the Revilacquas the lower
apartments. An enmity sprang up
between tho two families. It grew out
of a trifling incident. The Roses kept
a vegetable garden. The Revilacquas
kept chickens. The chickens scratch
ed ii it some tomato plants and the
trouble began. Mr. Rovllaequa offered
Mr. Rose $.", to settle the damage, but
Rose would not take It. The next
day two of tho chickens were found in
the Bevilncqiin. yard with their heads
wrung off. Mrs. Rose picked one of
them up and exhibiting it to Mrs. Rev
ilaoqun said: "That's what I'll do to
your neck, too."
GOT INTO LITIGATION.
Tho quarrel grew apace until, finally,
they got Into litigation, This tended
to make matters decidedly worse. One
day Mrs. Rose threatened to kill Mrs.
Revilacqua with an ax. Mrs. Bevll
acqua was in constant dread of Mrs.
Rose, and just a short time previous
to tlie last mentioned Incident, made It
a habit, when she bad occasion to go
out in the yard, to slip Into her skirt
pocket a revolver which was kept In
a trunk, used Jointly by her husband
and his brother. When Mrs, Rnso
canio towards hor with the ax sho
drew the revolver and displayed It
to Mrs. Rose to scare her off. She did
nut point it at Mrs. Rose, she said on
cross-examliiatiou.
So threatening did Mrs, Itose become
that tlio Revilacquas finally resolved
to leave the premises and move to
some other house. One day while the
Revilacquas wero out looking for oth
er quarters, Mrs. Rose invaded their
apartments witli nu ax and broke up a
lot of their furniture.
They finally secured a house on tho
other side of tho street and moved
thither, hoping to he free from tho
molestations of tho Roses. Rut they
reckoned wrong. Mrs, Roso would conio
down to Rnvllacqua's house 'and bernto
nnd threaten Mrs, P.evilacqua by tho
hour. More litigation was all the time
Intervening and, although Mrs. Roso
was bound over to keep tho peace to
wards Mrs. Revilacqua, sho seemed tn
only grow tho more annoying, the more
sho waa arrested.
A very few days at their new homo
satisfied tho Revilacquas that they
could never have peace whllo living on
the same street with tho Roses, and
again they moved, this time taking the
upper part of the Sykes tenement on
Capouso avenue, in which the Morrsco
family was occupying tho ground floor.
In this they wero unfortutiuto, for
Mrs. Moresco was godmother to Mrs.
Rose's child and Mrs, Rose was thus
given nu excuse for following them
up. Mrs. Rose would come down, ear
ly In tho morning, to tho Moresco
home, nnd when Mrs, Revilacqua
would bo encountered, a resumption
of the abuse and threats would follow.
The Revilacquas had no stove, but
made use of the stove In the Moresco
apartments to do their cooking. Fre
quently, when Mrs. Revilacqua would
come down stairs to do her culinary
work and would discover Mrs. Roso
there, she would turn sway and go
back up stairs.

There were no changes In the posi
tions of tlio various ieaders in The
Tribune's Kducntional Contest yester
day. Schwenker brought in u few more
points tbap Lewis did and thereby
gained a little on him for first place.
Arthur C. Grlflis.of Montrose, succeeded
in breaking his tie with K. J. Sheridan,
of Ilawley, and thereby became pos
sessed of a clear title to thirteenth
place. i
It will be noticed that in the above
list of contestants that there is but
one of tho entire sixteen who hails
from the central parL of tho city of
Scranton, and Unit there are but seven
within the entire city linos. The young
men and women in the suburban
towns seem to have grasped the fact
that a gi-anci opportunity was offered
to them much more universally than
their city brothers and sisters. There
Is a splendid territory right in the
heart of Scranton still left uncovered
by any contestant. Now that tho ex
aminations in tlie schools are over and
the students will have an abundnncc
of time for themselves, some of them
should try to see If they cannot win
one of tho great special rewards
offered by The Tribune to them. Four
year scholarships in Lafayette and
Swnrthmore, a three-year scholarship
In the Stroudsburg Normal school and
other incentives for active work are to
be given to tlioso who work for The
Tribune in this contest. Its second
month began yesterday; there are
more thnu eleven weeks remaining
ample time In which to crowd the
present leaders from their positions.
Tlioso who are thinking of joining
tlie contest should read the advertise
ment on the fourth page of this morn
ing's Tribune. It contains much ad
ditional Information about tho contest.
