THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-FRIDAY, JANUARY 3, 1.902.
i
INDUSTRIAL
AND LABOR
industry wants to come to
this city.
It Is the Universal Tool Htuutlo
Company of Now York and Has
Made a Proposition to the Board
of Trade Scranton Glass Manufac
turing Company Proposes to Start
Up a Plate Glass Plant Altls
Ohalmcrs Company Needs More
Storago Space Board for Today.
An Industry BccinliiRly of a very de
sirable character Is knocking at
Scronton's Bate. It Is the Universal
Tool Ilamllo company, of Now York,
'.flic board of trade lias received u pro
position tor the establishment of a
plant hero to manufacture the com
pany's product and Is giving It serious
consideration.
The tool handle Is a patented device,
manufactured only In Uernumy. Its
chief merit Is that the wooden top
which receives the strokes of the ham
mer and the steel shank In which the
chisel or other tool (Its, are Joined by
a buffer of compressed paper which
cannot split and Is practically Inde
structible. The Universal Tool company con
trols the sale of the handle In the Uni
ted States. A million dozen of them
are sold here annually. The selling
price averages 25 cents. By manufac
turing them In this country a saving
of 35 per cent, ad valorem duty would
make It possible to reduce the price
and still make a big profit.
The company bus an option on the
patent rights for tho L'nlted States,
and Is anxious to locate a plant at
once for manufacturing. A factory
capable of turning out a million dozen
handles, It is estimated, will need $41,
75G worth of machinery and an expen
diture of $120,000 a year for manufac
turlng. distributing and advertising.
The plant will employ ninety bands at
an average wage of $12 a week.
Samples of the handles have: been
sent out to various factories In this
vlty by Secretary Atherton of the
board of trade, to have their worth
thoroughly tested. When he has re
ceived reports from these tests the
manufacturing committee of tho board
will decide whether or not to proceed
with negotiations for bringing the
plant to Scrunton.
Other Industries.
Another new industry, or rather the
revival of an old Industry, is contem
plated by tlic Scruntnn Glass Manu
facturing company. The company, at
present, is devoting itself entirely to
the milking or glass bottles. It pro
poses now to start up tho plate glass
plant which was part of its legacy
from the old Hontii. company. The
jilate making machine is In place,
there is ,i big demand for the product
and all that remains to be done is to
construct a tank for making the glass.
This will be done at once.
The Allls-t'halmers company is In
need of more storage space and wil
take all of the old Dickson works'
vlore house, which it now shares with
the T'eim Store company. The latter
will be boused in the building at G04
310 Penn avenue, owned by Joseph
O'Brien, John .1. Ktiltey and li. Moses.
Jt will be enlarged to a three-story
structure, 40x100 foot.

i Theatrical I
TODAY'S ATTBACTIONS.
AOADKMY. Tlio Aubrey Silock compJiiy. Af.
tcrnooti nnd iiIrIiI.
Mat "The Thoiougtibrcd"." Atlcriioon and
night,
"The Belle of Now York."
Her many seasons has by no means
made "The nolle of New York" stale
and Hat. She appeared at the Lyceum
lasl night as smart and bright as when
she first bowed before an audience In
New York. There was bright music,
good specialties and other things that
go to mtike up an enjoyable perform
ance. The comuuny was largely the same
as tho one seen here last year. Kdward
.T. Connolly was lchabod Bronson, neu
lah Chase Dodge. A'lolet Gray, and
Arthur Deagon, "Wlnky Bill" MoQulrk.
The other members of tho company
gave capable assistance to tho princi
pals. "An Irish-American Cousin."
One of the prettiest comedy dramas
ever presented at the Academy was
"An Irish American Cousin," as pro
duced by the Aubrey Stock company
last evening. The story surrounds the
life of a young Irishman searching for
relatives on the other side. The comedy
and dramatic situations mingle to
gether In a way to form a beautiful
contrast to the everlasting clap-trip
melodrama.
J. May Bennett in the title role was
at his best. One cannot say too much
good of this gentleman's acting.
Franklyn Murrell, Miss ISthcl Clif
ton and Miss Maude Kellct added
greatly to the strength of the cast as
also ,1. P. Tucker us the real "bad
man" of the piece. For the matinee
today "Palace of the Czar" will be the
bill and "Money Mad" Is the attraction
for tonight.
"Thoroughbred" at the Star.
The patrons of the Star theater were
treated to a. surprise yeHterday by
Frank B. Carr's "Thoroughbreds,"
who began a three days' engagement.
The surprise came In the way of an
olio made up of specials acts of more
than ordinary merit, which followed
an opening burlesque that was so
tedious as to be almost unendurable,
While the first act of tho "Thorough
breds" is not of nature to arouse ex
cessive enthusiasm, the specialties were
among the Ilncst ever scon at tho
Star.
Probably the most novel and beauti
ful was the pantomime, "The Demon
and Fairy," in which marvelous elec
trical and scenic effects were produced.
Josie Flynn, the singing comedienne,
infused an unusual amount of ginger
into her renditions and had tho sym
pathy of the front rows from the start.
McCadc and Carow gave a. laughable
sketch; Healey and Farnunt evoked
enthusiastic applause by their dancing;
and Jlackey and Walker sustained
their reputation as fun-makers. Polk
andrresk. the acrobats, broke t lie
record in the introduction of turns that
heretofore would have been classed
among the impossibilities. The Thor
oughbreds will be at the Star, after
noon and evening, for the balance of
the week,
"Arizona."
In "Arizona," which is to be pro
duced nt tho Lyceum Saturday mat
inee and night one of the principal
character!), that of Lieutenant Denton,
is essayed by Lionel ntirrymore, who
Is the son of that well known star,
Maurice Burrymore, unci is gifted with
all of the histrionic talents of a star
young, good looking and standing al
most six feet, ho Is one of the most
attractive actors of the present gen
eration. Young Barrymoro has been on the
stage ever since he was u mere child,
and he has probably played as many
different roles as actors twice his age,
but bo has repeated over t and over
again that he has never been cast for
such a congenial, pleasant role as tho
one he is now portraying In Augustus
Thomas' drama, "Arizona." To say
thnt Mr. Barrynjoro Is eiiual to the oc
casion, would be putting the facts In
a rather too ordinary light, as he is
tho Ideal of the character In every par
ticular, nnd has been repeatedly com
plimented on all sides for the excellent
performance of the part which he
gives. Seats are now on sale.
Eifth of Brockway Course.
The fifth entertainment on tho
Broekway course will be a debate on
"Imperialism," by the Hon. Champ
Clurk and Hon. CharleH B, Landls at
the Lyceum theutre Monday night
next.
Seats for this entertainment nnd re
served seats for tho balance of the sea
son (five entertainments) may be se
cured this morning. Box oftlco opens
at 0 o'clock.
"Foxy Qulller" Coming.
The Klaw and Hrlanger Opera com
pany, with Jerome Sykes as the star
Is to present Do ICoven & Smith's won
derfully tuneful comic opera, "Foxy
Qulller," at tho Lyceum theatre, Wed
nesday, January 8,
For a long time Messrs. Klaw & Kr
luilger have held the proud position of
being tho leading producers of theat
ricals on an expensive scale In tilts
country and In tho present Instance
they aro said to have lert nothing un
done which could bo done to make tho
opera a success. Besides Jerome

''.The Kilties" Who appsar at the
Heart
Disease
Ninety Por Cent, of It Really Caused
from Poor Digestion,
Heal organic heart trouble Is Incur
able, but scarcely one case In a hun
dred Is organic.
The action of the heart nnd stomach
arc both controlled by the same great
nerves, the sympathetic and pneumo
gastrlc, and when the stomach falls to
properly digest tho food and It lies In
the stomach fermenting, gases are
formed which distend the organ caus
ing pressure on the heart and lungs
causing palpitation, irregularity and
shortness ofbreatb.
The danger from this condition Is
thnt, the continued disturbance of tho
heart sooner or later may cause real
organic heart trouble and In fact fre
tiuently does so.
Furthermore, poor digestion makes
the blood thin and watery and deficient
in red corpuscles, and this further Irri
tates and weakens the heart.
The most sensible tl.lng to do for
heart trouble is to insure the digestion
unci assimilation of the food.
This can be done by the regular use
after meals of some safe, pleasant and
effective digestive preparation, like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets which may
bo found at most drug stores and
which contain the necessary digestive
elements In a, pleasant, convenient
form.
Thousands of people keep well and
vigorous by keeping their digestion per
fect by observing the rule of taking one
or two of these tablets after each meal,
or at least after each hearty meal.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain
I'. S. P. pepsin, dlatasc from malt and
other natural digestives which act only
on the food, digesting it perfectly and
preventing acidity, gases, and the many
diseased conditions which accompany
a weak stomach.
When Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
used you may know you aro not taking
Into the system any strong medicine
or powerful drug but simply the nat
ural digestive elements which every
weak stomach locks.
So widely known and popular have
these tablets become that they are now
Mld by every druggist in the United
Klates, Canada and Great Britain.
Lyceum Tuesday afternoon and even
ing have played to thousands in two
hundred of our principle cities, creat
ing everywhere a roof-lifting furore of

The following clippings from some of
our leading papers speak for them
selves: Chicago Blade "Such ti pleasing
band entertainment was never before,
seen or heard in Chicago. All America
cannot produce anything similar."

Itochester, N. V Herald "From the

blood-curdling melodrama which seem
to have, no end In the popular priced

It were. In which a good, wholesome

year, this old standby seems to grow
better tho longer It runs.

Yoang James
And His Bride
JIMMY STEHR was In luck. A
gentleman lmd given him ten
cents for holding ti horse outuldo
Covont Garden market. Jlnimy
turned the coin over nnd over In
hla hand, taking care, however, to keep
the hand hidden In tho pocket of his
ragged trousers.
"I du nn o whether tcr go In for a
good blowout or hurt n quire of even
In' papers, ho was thinking, when IiIb
attention was drawn to a little girl, a
year or two younger, than himself
Jimmy was nine sobbing In a quiet
but pitiable manner outside a cook
shoo. She was rather a pretty child, though
the big bluck eyes, fixed so wistfully
on n great roll of "spotted" pudding,
were swollen up with crying.
"Hallo!" said Jimmy, "who's been
a-punchln' you?"
"Nob'dy. I'm only hungry," she
sobbed,
"So 'in I," Jimmy retorted. "Pin
alius hungry. Where's yer mother?"
Tho question started the little girl
sobbing afresh.
"She's ruuned awuy," she said at
length. "She told me to ask n p'leeco
nmn to take me to tho workbus. but I
don't want to go to the workhus. I've
been there once."
"What's yer nam'?"
"Al's."
Jimmy turned the ten cents over sev
eral times.
"I'm goln' ter have a blowout," he
suddenly said. "Come along. Al's."
Tho hungry mite needed no second
Invitation. Soon she was sitting before
a plate heaped up with pudding. Tho
meal loosened her tongue and she be
gan to ask questions.
Jimmy told her all he knew about
himself. He had neither father nor
mother. Sal Steer brought him up,
but she beat him so that he couldn't
stand It any longer, and he hadn't
been home for more than a month. "I
uln't u-goln', neither," he added.
"Where do you live?" asked Al's.
"Oil, anywheres," was the careless
reply. "There's a doorway in Grecian
Lane I likes best when I haven't got
no 'doss' money."
"Can you take ine? I haven't got
nowhere to sleep."
Jimmy didn't answer Immediately.
"Yus," he said, when ho bad fully
considered the matter; "I'll have to
sleep there If I don't have no more
luck."
Jimmy conducted his weary little
companion to Grecian Lane. It was
poor hospitality, that bleak doorway,
but he had no better to offer, and in
one respect it could scarcely be Im
proved upon. The lane bore such a
desperate character that policemen al
ways walked in the middle of tho road
at night, so occupants of the doorways
and entries generally escaped observa
tion. Next day Jimmy's fortune was no
worse than usual, but he bad two
mouths to feed now, and tho doorway
in Grecian Lane was again their rest
ing place. This was the case for rather
more than a week.
"It can't go on much longer," Jimmy
said one night. ' "I've had lots of pals,
but they've 'all 'been took. Policemen,
or School Board, or Children's Home,
or summat's had 'em nil. I've been
lucky, I have; but I know I'll bo had
some day: then we'll be parted, Al's."
The child nestled closer to him and
.rested her touzlcd llttlo head on his
ragged shoulder.
"I'd die if I was took away from you,
Jimmy." she said. "Nob'dy could part
us If we was married. Mother used (o
toll father so when he snld he'd run
away. How doe's you get married,
Jimmy?"
"ICasy 'nough," Jimmy answered with
all the confidence of superior knowl
edge. "There's a church by Trafalger
Square where folks get married 'most
every day. I've sneaked in once or
twice. They stands In front of .sonic
rallln's, and a man in a long white
shirt reads summat out of a book. He's
the marryor, he Is."
"D'ye think he'd marry us?"
"Not for mitllnk. I've only got five
cents, an' we'll want that for break
fast." "I'm used to coin' without break
fast," said Al's. "I'd rather bo mar
lied." "If we was ter sneak In when the
marryer was miirryln' somo'dy else,"
said Jimmy, thoughtfully, "wo might
get married for uulTink. Rats! Here's
it bobby! Lay close, Al's.!"
Soon after 10 o'clock next morning
Jimmy and Al's might have been seen
hanging about St. Martin's church.
Toward 11 a striiiir of carriages drew
up in front of the church.
"Come on, Al's!" Jimmy cried. "A
marryln's jest goln" ter begin!"
And In the crowd, unnoticed by any
of the officials, they stole Into the
church and toward tho chancel, and,
concealed by a pillar, waited hand In
hand for tho ceremony to begin.
Neither could understand the clergy
man's opening words, but he had no
more reverent listeners than those two
pathetlo little figures, AVhen he nsked
tho question beginning, "Wilt thou have
this woman" and the bridegroom an
swered, "I will," Jimmy wus caught
napping, or perhaps he did not under
stand, but when It came the bride's
turn to answer, "I will," ho was ready
to prompt Al's.
"Say I will,' " ho whispered,
"I will." faltered Al's.
"Nob'dy can part us now," suld Al's
as they descended tho church steps, the
ceremony over,
Twelve hours later Dr. Barnett, tho
well known philanthropist, passed
through Oreclan Lane, accompanied by
the superintendent of one of his homes
and a police sergeant, and followed at
a little distance by a closed carriage,
They wero engaged in rescue work.
From time to time tho olllcer Hashed
his bull's-eye on a doorway or entry,
Suddenly ho stopped. It was before
Jimirty'H temporary home,
"Hero are two, doctor!" he ex
claimed. Dr. Harnett approached noiselessly
and stood' looking down at the ragged
wolfs nesting In their corner.
"Poor babies!" ho murmured,
"HI, there!" cried the olllcer, stoop
ing over them. "Wake up wako up!"
Jimmy started and half opened his
eyes. Al's murmured In her sleep.
"What does Bhe say'.'" asked the su
perintendent. " 'Nobody cun part us,' " the ser
geant answered. "Come now, then,
wuke.upl"
The boy opened his eyes, saw the
dreaded uniform and scrambled to his
feet.
"Run, Al's run!" he cried. "Here's
a bobby!"
He did not attempt to escupo him
self, but stood perfectly still while tho
olllcer took hold of his ragged cuff, Al's
sat uu and beiran to cry.

"Please, sir, don't hurt Jimmy! He
nln't done nufllnk!"
"Nobody's going to hurt hlin." said
the superintendent. "Where do you
live?"
"Along with Jimmy," she sobbed.
"Where does Jimmy live? He's your
brother, I suppose?"
"No, sir," said the nilte. "We're
married. You can't part us."
Dr. Burnett looked at the sergeant,
who In bis turn looked at the superin
tendent. No one laughed. Presently
the doctor coughed. Tho superintend
ent blew his nose.,
"I'm blest!" exclaimed the olllcer.
The carriage drew up at the curb
while the children told their story.
"You ain't going to port us?" Al's
cried.
She allowed the superintendent to
lift her into the cnrrluge without a
struggle. But Jimmy kicked and
fought like a little Turk.
He was "had" at last.
More than fourteen years had passed
A burly young backwoodsman, sun
burnt, hard as nails, to judge by his
appearance, was walking down Mont
calm street, Quebec, studying the num
bers and tradesmen' s names as hq
went. Presently he pulled out a letter
and read It. It dated from London:
"My dear James: I have much
pleasure In informing' you that Alice
Graham went to Canada, with twenty
four other girls in May last. Her ad
dross is care of Mr. Le Croix, 101 Mbnt
ealm street, Quebec. I am very glad
to learn that you are doing so well
and 1 hope you will continue to pros
per. Your sincere friend,
"Hubert Harnett."
This was nt least the one hundredth
time that Jimmy bad read Dr. Bur
nett's communication, as its ragged
state testillcd. .
"I wonder IT she'll know me? It isn't
hardly to be expected. I shall know
her, though no fear that I shan't."
No. 101 appeared to be ii private
house of considerable size. Jimmy
rang. A neat maid opened the door.
"Can I see Alice Graham?" lie asked.
"Miss Graham Is with the children,"
was the answer. "If you step this way
1 will tell her. What name shall 1 give
her?"
"I hud" rather not scud In my name,"
said Jimmy.
Ills reflections In the room into which
ho was shown wero inlertipted by the
entrance of a. young lady. A pusiSilcd
expression was on her oval, dimulcd
face and In her big black eyes.
"I think there's some mistake," he
faltered. "I've called to see Alice Gra
ham," "I am Alice Graham."
Jimmy looked bard at her. Slp was
very pretty and fashionably dressed.
Al's, as ho remembered, bail been
pretty, but the picture In his baud had
little resemblance to the beauty who
now stood before him.
"You must bo another," he said sad
ly. "The Alice Graham I want to sec
came from London."
"I came from London."
"From Dr. Harnett's home?"
"Yes."
"Then I'm afraid the doctor bus made
an awful mistake. He sent me this
letter, but there's something wrong
somewhere,"
The girl glanced at tho address. Next
Instant her arms were around Jimmy's
neck, the red rose In her hair was rest
ing on his shoulder.
"You're Jimmy Steer" sho cried,
"Jimmy who married me. In St. Mar
tin's church years and years ago! And
I didn't know you," she went on laugh
ing and almost crying by turns.
"Whatever have you been thinking?"
And then sho pushed him away at
arm's length and looked him up and
down. "Why, Jimmy, how you've
grown! It's not Kurprlslug that I
didn't know you. You're quite a big
man" And then she kissed him.
About n vear afterward Mrs, Le
Croix lost her children's governess.
Jimmy made another Journey up from
Hamilton. This tlmo ho did not return
