The discussion of the matter of In
specting mine woikeis' cauls, which
closed two collieries during the week,
the Maltby of tho I.ehlgh foal company
and the Woodward of the l.aika-
anna, took up a great part of the
f-ession. The committee appointed by
the men of the ltellevue colliery re
volted seeing Superintendent I.nomls
nnd asking him whether the men could
have pet iniion to conduct these ex
aminations of the canls. They le
eelvecl no dhect answer, hut claim
that they were told the matter would
be given duo consideration.
It was also reported that trouhl" was
experienced Monday nt the Dickson
colliery of the Delaware and Hudson
company, wheie the foreman forbade
the men taking up caids nt the head
of the shaft.
SliCHETA ft VS STATHMKNT.
Secretary Deinpk?y stated to The
Tribune man that tho notion of both
th Lackawanna anil Delawniu and
Hudson companies in taking up cards
Mas not unlvcisal. Said he:
"They aie allowing us to take them
at sevctal of the Delawaie, Lacka
wanna and Western and Delawaie nnd
Hudson mines, and It seems that they
leae the disposition of tlie matter
largely to the discretion of the fore
men. We have experienced no Hon
hie In previous months over tills (pies
tlon, and on July I tho cards weie
taken up at a gieat inajnilty of col
lieries tluoughout the valley."
Tlie dockage question and other mat
ters In which the miners believe them
selves to have been unfairly treated
were also discussed yesteiday at No.
l s con icntlon and Monday at the scs
fd'ili olNo. !". Speclllo action will bo
taken upon them Thursday. Another
subject which will come up for ills,
cuslon will be the grievances of the
llienien.
Lai go numbeis of them have Joined
th mine workers sliue tlie dlsastious
teiminatloii of their leccnt strike, and
they claim that the companies have
discriminated ag.mst the men who
went out and In a number of cases ic-
nin-u in lemsiaie mem, ineie is a
meeting of the national ho.ud of tho

THEY HAD A WILD TIME.

Finished Them All.
Spltzer it Co., bottlers, received nn
order last week for four kegs of beer
to be furnished for u clambako to bo
given this week by a party near Web
ei'.t grove, West Seranton.
The driver, when ho went to deliver
the heei, was unable to locate the man
he was to deliver It to, and decided to
Ie.no It In the possession of John l.of.
tits, of Horatio avenue, who promised
that he would caie for It until the
pioper person called for It. The dilver
was only too glad to get ,omo one to
take care of tho boor, to save him a
second long trip, and ho assuied Lof.
tus that tho firm would tiny for the
storage.
When one of tlie men who had or
deied the beer showed up nt Lof tus'
place, the hitter said that only two
kegs of beer had been left with him,
and turned them over. The man be
came suspicious when he i eat lied hoiue
and decided to tap one of tho kegs. He
did so, and found that It contained
nothing but water. Tho other one was
tapped and was also found to contain
nothing but aiua pura.

HE WAS A NERVY BOY.

from a Locomotive in the Yards.
Joseph Hlegel, u 12-year-old boy, re
siding at "10 Second street, was caught
yesterday morning In tho Lackawanna
yards unscrewing valve caps and

a locomotive with steam up which was

MAKING OF ASSESSMENT
Ono Assessor Believes It Will Take
a Year for tho Board to Do
the Work.
The city assessors are In another
quandary.
One of tho members of the board has
been doing a little calculating and he
has arrived at tho conclusion that it
will be a physical Impossibility for the
live assessors to visit every property
ifi tho city and personally assess ouch
in the four months which they will
have at their disposal.
lie lias figured out that It took the
averag" ward assessor In tho past at
least sK weeks, and In some Instances
two months, to assess a ward, and on
this basis he calculates that It would
take the live assessors lonsldeiably
over ti year to assess every wind, pro
viding they alt go around together, as
Recorder Council lias said ho desltes
them to do.
The n cot dor believes that If each
member of tho board passes Individ
ually upon each property In tho city,
the lesponslhillty for each assessment
will fall upon the whole board and no
one member will bo complained about
and murmured at.
The member who has figured out
that It will take over a year to make
the assessment if this plan Is followed,
Is alone In his contention, the other
members maintaining that If they ap
ply themselves assiduously to their
wink, the Job can bo accomplished in
proper time.
No dellnite conclusion as to the
method to be adopted has as yet been
anlved at.

SYLVESTER A
VERY BAD BOY
FATHER SAYS HE IS UNMANAGEABLE.
The Boy Is Only Elevon Yoars of
Age, but at a Hearing Before Judge
Carpenter Yosterday It Was De
cidod to Send Him to the House of
Refuge Mrs. Mary Marcinkovick
Sues Her Nolghbor Anthony Bon
nett for $3,000 Damages-Other
Court Matters.
Sylvester Golunblcskl Is only 11 years
of age, but he Is as wicked as his
name Is long and unpronouiicable.
He Is so bad that his father cannot
manngo him, nnd yesterday Judge J.
W. Carpenter decided that a trip to
the House of Hefugo for a few years
would bo a good thing for him, and
thither ho will go as soon as the
sheriff can nrrango to take him there.
At present Sylvester Is In the county
Jail.
He Is only a mite of a boy andwhen
tho hearing was on In Judge Carpen
ter's chamber yesterday, his head was
only slightly above the top of the desk,
Sylvester does not look like a des
perado In embryo.
Yesterday ho was very mild man
nered -in 1 aside from the self-willed
expression of his fare, there was noth
ing to Indicate that ho was In tialn
Ing for the position of bold, bad man,
Sylvester's father, who lives at 1039
South Washington avenue, testified
that for two years he has been unable
to ilo anything with the boy, who
seeks evil companions and often-tlines
disappears from his homo for a week
nt a time. All last week he could not
be found by his father. Tho hoys'
.sister said ho sometimes stole things
nnd other witnesses testified that the
boy seems gicatly to prefer the down
hill rood to thu stialght and narrow
path.
The youth looked on all the time,
as it he couldn't quite understand
what all the fuss was about, and when
turned over lo the .sheriff, he walked
off us stolidly as If ho had been with
sheriffs many times before and was
not so wonderfully Impressed with
their greatness.
