ANOTHER KIND
OP CALENDAR
KOSII RECKONED BY THE GRE
GORIAN YEAR.
St. Mlclmel's Day Didn't Tall on
November 21 According to Dis
trict Attorney Lewis' Calculations,
but the District Attorney Calcu
lated a According to tho Julian
Calendar While Kosli Goes by the
Other Kind Street Car Striker
Convicted Other Court Notes.
The twelve (lays' difference In the
GreKOi-lan ami Julian calendars llg
ured prominently In the ilefcne of an
Important cape In criminal court yes
lot day.
Mlko Ktish, a young Russian from
the province of Gallclii, in what Is
known as Red Russia, was on trial be
fore Judge Kelly on the charge of
placing obstructions on the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western tracks with
Intent to wreck a train.
The principal witness for the piosocu
llon was Frank Jones, a switchman,
testified that on Wednesday, November
if), 1U01, at midnight, he saw the do
fondant place something nu the track,
about ISO feet north of the West Lacka
wanna avenue crossing. He hurried to
the spot and discovered- several large
burrs or nuts on the rail. Kosh and
his companions had gone on their way,
but Jones succeeded In overtaking
them.
He caught Kosh by the arm with the
Intention of arresting him, but Kosli's
companions Intel efered nnd Jones lot
him go, with the Intention of having
him arrested later on u warrant. Af
terwards Jones found more burrs and
a bolt on the track some distance far
ther up. A passenger train passed by
live minutes later.
The next day, Jones says, he saw
Kosh pass by again and following
him learned that he woiked In the
Mt. Pleasant breaker. The next day,
in company with an olllcer, Jones
watched- for Kosh and when be came
along placed him under arrest.
ENTERED A DENIAL.
Kosh admitted he passed the point
In question on Monday at noon, but
he and the four men who were with
him denied that he placed anything
on the tracks. That he passed there
the next day was absolutely denied
by all five. The next day was St.
Michael's Day. they declared, and all
of them, being Greek Catholics, re
frained f i om working and attended
church.
If this was true, it would go a great
ways towards discrediting Jones' iden
tification of Kosh. District Attorney
Levis lecognlzed this fact and east
about for some way of contradicting it.
A Llthuaulnn prayer book, containing
a church calendar, was secured and
offered in evidence to show that St.
Michael's Day does not fall on Novem
ber 21. The attorney for the dorense,
Joseph V. Gllroy, at this juncture
called attention to the fact that the
defendant and his companions are Gat
Iclans, and members of the orthodox
Greek church which uses the Gregorian
calendar, and ns the prayer book of
fered in evidence conformed to the
Julian calendar it was not evidence.
The prosecution withdrew the offer.
Judge Kelly delivered a lengthy and
very carefully worded charge to the
jury because of the seriousness of the
offense. The maximum penalty Is u
line of $10,000 and ten years Imprison
ment. The jury was one of the four
that were out at adjournment time.
JENNINGS ON TRIAL.
One of the street car strikers, James
Jennings, of the Seventh ward, was
committed before Judge Edwards o
committing assault and battery on
Harry McLaughlin, of Dunmore, who
had the temeiity to ride on a car to a
ball in St. John's hall, on Capouso ave
nue, Clulstmas eve.
The prosecution presented the testi
mony of McLaughlin and the two la
dies who accompanied him, Miss Logan
and Miss Toohlll. They admitted they
had been guilty of riding on the car.
When they entered tho dance hall, they
noticed they were being made the ob
jects of some attention, and before
they had been theie long, they were
hissed and greeted with opprobrious
names, while demands were made In
loud tones they be put out.
McLaughlin and his ladles left the
hall. As they were going out they

passed Jennings standing on tho porch.
He called them names nnd made
threats. A large crowd followed them
to the sldewnlk, Jeering and hissing.
Jennings, It Is alleged, was especially
aggressive along this Hue, so much so
that he made McLaughlin lose his po
liteness. McLaughlin told Jennings he
would be pleased to meet him at any
place or time, he would deslgnnte, after
he had- escorted his lady friends home.
The crowd had been closing In gradual
ly and by this time Ilia foremost ones
wove close upon McLaughlin. Some
one knocked off McLaughlin's hat. As
ho was stooping to pick It up, Jennings
hit him a blow In the eye. McLaugh
lin got his Indies homo and then went
to Dr. O'Mtilley's office to have his eye
treated.
WAS FOUND GUILTY.
Jennings, his sister, and two other
witnesses swore Hint Jonnlnss was
dancing In a sttiare dance at the time
of the trouble, and never left the hall
for a moment while the trouble was on.
The jury was not long In finding a ver
dict of glllltY.
Judge Wen nil Imposed a Hue of $..0
on Miss Cassimlro L'hlktewlez, of l'rlce
burg, who was found guilty of striking
her sister, Mrs. Wlndyslnw Wnjua, on
the head with an umbrella. Tho jury,
lu reporting Us verdict, conveyed to the
judge n. rotiuesl that he be as lenient
as possible.
James Drool;, of South Scranton, who
has been in the penitentiary once and
the county jail lreuuently, for thiev
ing, Avas convicted of stealing two
chickens from Mrs. Mary Drier, and
sentenced to six months In the county
jail by Judge Edwards. Ho pled guilty
of defrauding Mrs. Brier out of a board
bill and A-as given thirty days for It,
the sentence to run concurrent Avlth the
other.
Drool; boarded at the Drier house for
some lime, but tjtilt without paying his
bill. A few weeks later, on the night
of December 10, 1901, ..Mrs. Drier and
her 14-year-old son heard a noise in the
back yard. The dog Avas barking and
some one av.is calling, "Keep quiet,
Prince; He down, Pi ince." They thought
they recognized Diock's voice, nnd,
opening the door, Mrs. Drier called out,
"James, what are you doing here?" At
this a man, Avlth a chicken under each
arm, darted down the path. Mrs. Drier
and the boy followed and shav that It
Avas Brock. She asked him Avhat he
AA-as doing Avitii the chickens. He ie
plled that he didn't intend to steal
them, that he was only bori owing
them. At that ho stepped on a box,
vaulted over the fenco and made off,
still retaining the chickens.
SAID HE WAS DRUNK.
Urock denied the charge and claimed
he Avas on a drunk lu Wllkes-Darre tho
night of December 10.
Attorneys W. W. Daylor and U. II.
Soper, avIio are btothers-in-liiAV as well
as brothers in the I.-iav, had u rather
unfraternal sort of a time in No. 3,
during the afternoon. Mr. Daylor Avas
for the prosecution, and Mr. Sopor for
tho defense, in a case lrom Denton, in
which W. Jesse Travis Avas charged
Avith the theft of two props from ids
neighbor, A. L. Stanton. Mr. Soper re
ferred to Mr. Baylor as being a pro
duct of Benton and In other ways at
tempted to hold him up to ridicule, be
sides characterizing his conduct of the
case as unpiofesslonal. Mr. Baylor, in
his address to the Jury, declared that
despite the fact that the counsel on the
other side was married to his sister, he
was constrained to say he was dls
renutabli'. Tho case Is one In Avhich the entlie
population of Benton is evincing a deep
Interest. The farmers there cut mine
pi ops, pile them along the road, and,
at their convenience, haul them to
Scranton. A number of the farmeis
had been missing props from their
piles, and they Aeio on the lookout for
the thief.
Mr. Stanton, James naught and Allle
Siscoe, neighbors of Travis, were sus
picious that It Avas he who was steal
ing the props, and when they learned
one day last November that he and his
son Aveie to start for Scranton at 2
o'clock the next morning, decided to
watch him.
Stanton secreted himself at a pile of
props near his home. Raught tool; a
station at another pile owned by Stnn
tou and located near tho school house.
Siscoe watched his own pile, farther
down the road.
TOOK PROP,
About 2 o'clock a. in., according to
the pioseeutlon's witnesses, Travis and
his son i-ame along Avlth a team nnd
tool: a prop from each pile. After they
had gone out of sight, Siscoe and
Raught followed In a light wagon,
caught up Avlth them at Waverly,
passed them out, and bccurod a war
rant for their arrest from a North End
alderman. Tho warrant only charged
the offense of stealing lrom the Siscoe
pile. Raught did not care to take Jt
upon hlnibelf to havo Travis arrested
for stenling from .Stanton. An offer
Avas Hindu to show that Travis settled
with Siscoe by paying for tho prop and
the costs of the proceedings before tho
nldcruiau. This evidence, however, was
ruled out. It Avas-Mr. Baylor's alleged
continued references to tho Siscoe
prosecution that caused the tilt be
tween lilm and Mr. Soner.
Tho defense was somewhat novel.
Travis admitted taking ouo prop from
Stanton, but averred that It was owed
to lilm, and that he tool; it Avlth the
permission of tho owner.
Ten months before, according to
Travis, he traded an old gun Avlth Stan
ton for an old wngon. Tho lock of tho
gun was broken and Stanton enmo to
him to get one to replace it, Travis
had a gun lock he had no use for and
agreed to Jet Stanton havo It. Travis
didn't know Jiiht wlmt It wus worth
and didn't euro much, iinyhoAV, about
putting a pilco on It. Stanton Insisted
on paying something for It, and finally
Travis said, "Well, noma day or other
I'll take n prop." That was agreeable
lo Stanton, and so the bargain closed.
The next time ho Avns bound for Scran
ton, ho btopped nt one of the Stanton
prop piles and helped himself to a prop.
This prop was that prop. Tho Jury aviis
out at adjourning time.

EXCEPTIONAL SUCCESS.
Achieved by tho Ponn Mutual Lifo
Insuranco Company During tho
Past Year.
A noteworthy example of what can
be nccompllseu' by careful nnd Intelli
gent, business management Is afforded
by the Ponn Mutual Life Insurance
Company, tis set forth In Its llfty-fourth
annual report. Tho past year AVas tho
most successful In tho history of the
compuny, and tho Increase In the vol
ume of business Is truly phenomenal.
The assets on January 1, 1002, were
3 18,979,021.1,1, being larger by $1,780,872.45
than those of the previous year. The
reserve fund nt 3,& and 4 per cent, lo
re-Insuro risks aviis Increased by $4,
325,015, and hoav amounts to $42,181,C07.
During 1901 the premiums and annuities
received were $9,032,902.33, Interest re
ceipts, etc., $2,330,231.09, dividends to
policy holders, $623,223.51, to which
should be added $392,730.12 alotted to
deferied dividend policies, making tho
total apportionment of surplus during
the year $1,017,933.90. Losses paid,$2,7C6.
281.23, matured endowment and annui
ties, $9Il,07S,7o. There were issued 26,
249 policies, Insuring $02,453,037, against
19,309 policies Insuring $32,232,810 in
1900. The total number of policies in
force is 99.0S3, Insuring $242,031,6G2.
Since the organization of the company
there has been paid to policy holders
the enormous sum of $G2,S27,323.74, a
fact which of Itself affords indisputable
evidence of tho company's financial
strength. The Penn Mutual Is now so
firmly established in public confidence
that It AA-ould be Impossible to predict
that measure of success the future has
in store, but it is safe to assume that
It Avill be greater than eA-er. The busi
ness in this state Is very large and this
is to a great extent due to Messrs
Bourne & Durham, general managers
for Northeastern and Central Pennsyl
vania. The last year Avas by far the
most successful In the history of the
agency its Issue going considerably be
A'ond the thiee million matk, and thus
bringing the firm In the front tank of
producers for the Penn Mutual. With
ofllcos and able representatives In
Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, Easton, Allen
town, Williamsport, Blnghamton, N.
Y., and in all the principal cities
throughout their teritory, ns avcII as an
effectlA-e force in Philadelphia, their
success is easily understood, and to tho
cordial co-operation and earnest orforts
of its representatives and the supreme
excellence of tho company, Bourne and
Durham attribute the magnlflcient
business of the agency for 1901.
The company Is very efllciently repre
sented In this city by George AValil,
district agent; S. J. Oi-ons, Joseph
Speicher and P. A. Loubignac, special
agents, with ofllces In the Board of
Trade building, and-also by P. P. Smith,
special agent with olllce In the Mears
building.
