CONSERVATORY RECITAL.
Programme Rendered in Guernsey
' Hall Last Night.
Tim forty-second recital of Oie Con
servatory of Mtislo was given hy stu
tlnnls Inst evening In Guernsey hall,
to a full house. Tho programme begun
wllh two cnsenible Holeutlons, played
by a class of eight young laities at four
lilnnos.wlth rxceltent elfwt. Katharine
.Tames, of Hyde Park, followed with 11
Utile piece by Webb. Although her
first appearance In these recitals, she
played very well, Indeed.
Martha Richmond, of (ireen Ridge, a
little girl of pel haps eight yea in, played
a group of roiir little pieces from the
Fuolloit rundunienlal louder. This Is
her llrst year of music study and al
ready she Is manifesting unusual mu
sical talent. With an enlho lack itt
self-t'onsclousness she played with great
freedom and with 110 little expression.,
Anna Wnhl, of Scranton, Is another
talented child who played three selec
tions which wen more dllllcult than
tho preceding, In a manner thjit left
no doubt that music Is to her a natural
expression. There was a dellnlteness
and promptness In her work that
prophesies n bright musical future.
A selection by AVIlllunis was played
at four pianos by May Rower, Rertha
Rurgptte, Corn Marvel and Florence
Nichols. Anna JJiivIh, of Jlyde Park,
followed with the Kirunrolgeii by llelns,
which shoWcd direful work on her part,
with due attention to pedalling and
phrasing, N11111111 Price, of Scranton,
played the pleasing Sonatina, Opus SS,
Xo. 1', by Kuhlau, In lis entirety nnd
from memory. Her performance was
very creditable, and gave evidence of
musical talent of :t high order.
.Special mention 1? duo to the playing
of Clara Haas, who may with all
truthfulness be termed n "wonder
child." She played the Inst movement
of Mozart's pianoforte concerto In O,
with the orchestral accompaniment ar
ranged for second piano, played by
Mr. Pennington. This Is a dllllcult
work, yet she played It without a trace
of nervousness, and with such charm
ing elfect as to fairly nstnnlMi the au
dience unil provoke It to continued ap
plause. Of tho older students, Miss Lillian
K rati tor, of Tohyhnnuu, played three
selections with much poetical expres
sion; Miss Nellie Schlatter, of Scran
ton, gave a brilliant rendition of tho
Valso In E Hat, by Duraiid. Tho most
dltlicult solo numbeis, the Impromptu
In C sharp minor, by Tlhelnhold, and
the Tarantelle In A minor by Thome,
were played by Miss Ulldegnrd Conrad,
of West Pittston. Miss Conrad is an
advanced player, and although somef
what nervous, acquitted herself with
great credit.
An exhibition of tho results of a
few months' study under the Faellen
system of fundamental training was
given by Melvln Corbett, Katie Graff,
Curtis Lai kin, Ethel Yost, Mary Bis
blng, Thin low Brown, Florence Kelly,
Edward Kelly and Pearl Pedrlek.
The recital was brought to a brilliant
close by the playing of tho allegro from
Moseheles' "Homage 11 Handel" by Mihs
Browning, Miss French, Miss Wagen
hurst, members of the faculty, assisted
by Miss Bone.
MUST BE AMENDED.
Discovery That the Bond Ordinance
Makes No Provision for the
Payment of State Tax.
Mai It K. Idgar, Recorder Connell's
private secretary, was looking over the
ordinance providing for the issue of
$2S",,000 worth of city bonds on Wednes
day, when he discovered that theie
was no provision for the 'payment by
the city of the stale tax on the bonds.
This was rather it startling discov
ery, because of the fact that the bonds
have already been auvcrtised and bids
solicited, the same to be In the hands
of the city controller not Inter than
April 21, a week from next Monday.
The advertisements .'til contain an
nouncement of the fact that tho city
agrees to assume the payment of all
taxes on the bonds. 11 was originally
intended to have an amendment to tho
ordinance adopted, specifically setting
this forth, but the matter was over
looked. It Is believed that should prospective
bidders become uwaro of this omission
In the ordinance, It would lie Impossible
to secure even par bids, and there Is a
statute which prohibits any munici
pality from selling Its bonds at loss
than par. '
It was accordingly decided to pre
pare an ordinance amending the origi
nal bond oidlnanee, and this was done,
the ordinance being approved by Clly
Solicitor Watson. The state tax on the
issue amounts to four mills on tho dol
lar, or about $1,110, all told. An ordi
nance amending Hit' bond ordinance so
as to provide lor the payment of the
slate tn:: wits lutrotlumd In common
council hist night.

John Tuffey, of Irvine; Avenue, Com
mitted to the County Jail.
John Tulfey, a 2:!-yeur-iild young man,
residing on Irving avenue, was arrested
early yesterday morning at his home
by Detective Delter, on the charge of
bitrglarllug a storehouse or the West
liighousi! company, located near the old
rail mill of the Lackawanna lion and
Steel company.
Tho storehouse was broken Into lust
Sunday night and some nineteen btlcks
of dynamite nnd nliiety-dve exploslw
caps were taken, The hlulV was. sold to
certain parties1 for considerably less
tint 11 Its real value, and In this way tliu
pollen fastened tho guilt on Tulfey. Tho
latter tried tn conceal himself when
Detective Delter went to his house, but
he didn't succeed.
Ilo was arraigned before Magistrate
Millar, and ofi'eted no defense except a
general denial. He Wits committed to

PLEAD GUILTY
TO SCALPING
ADOLPH BLAU HAD NO DE
FENSE TO OFFER.
Had Six Lawyers Representing Him,
but They Were Up Against n Re
cent Flat-Footed Decision of the
Supreme Court nnd Could Do
Nothing More Than Ask for Len
iencyJury Still Out in the Lot
tie Smith Case Number of Im
portant Cases Put Over.
Adolplt Blau, proprietor of the Com
n orchil Lnnu and 'Picket agency, 203
Ltickawaima 'avenue, pleaded guilty,
before Judge Kelly yesterday, of the
charge of Illegal selling of railroad
tickets, preferred by Mark L. Smith,
district passenger agent of the Dela
witic, Ltickuwaniut and Western com
pany. He was fined JM and costs.
Blau was warned by Mr. Smith to
desist from ticket sculping and did so.
Then came the Mun'ulo decision against
the Lackawanna company In equity
proceedings brought to restrain ticket
scalping, and Blau seized upon It as un
excuse to reopen business. "Mr. Smith
again warned him that he was engaged
in an Illegal business nnd that ho
would bo prosecuted If he did not give
It up. He did not heed tho warning
and was arrested.
He engaged O'Brien & Martin, Itlce
& Donnelly, George H. Horn and John
P. .Murphy to defend him, but they
looked about In vain for a line of de
fense and finally advised him to plead
guilty.
It was explained to the court that
Blau was honestly mistaken in his be
lief that the Buffalo decision, which
was In the United States court, gave
him the right to do a sculping busi
ness. Major Wurren, counsel for tho
company, did not oppose the extension
of leniency, and Judge Kelly decided
not to impose a severe penalty.
In passing sentence, the Judge told
Blau that the law in Pennsylvania on
ticket sculping is clear and distinct,
and positively makes It a penitentiary
offense. The nominal lino of $23, the
jttde stated, was not to be construed
as it precedent for dealing with future
cases of the kind. He would not be in
clined to such extreme leniency, lie
said, with the next person convicted
before him of this crime.
Tho Buffalo decision did not decide
anything as to tho merits of the case
ul bar. Tho court decided against the
company on the ground that it wus vio
lating interstate commerce law in its
titink line ticket arrangement, and that
it was, therefore, forbidden a standing
In equity court, under the maxim that
"He who- does iniquity cannot have
equity." The question as to the legality
of ticket sculping was not passed upon
at all. Three months ago, the Penn
sylvania Supreme court upheld the
constitutionality of the law against
ticket scalping, hi an appeal from
Pittsburg.
The Jury In the case of the common
wealth against Lottie Smith, charged
w ith keeping a house of ill-fame, went
out yesterday morning and had not
agreed at adjourning time.
Onll'er Mlenarski. of Old Forge, was

when Sommers went to the defendant's

the case In which Mattliew and An
thony Stroko, of Olyphunt, were
charged with assault and battery on
Joseph Keotlc.
In the case In which Farmer II. S.
Parks, of South Abington, charged his

with assault and battery, the jury re
turned a verdict of not guilty and di

LIZZIE WAS DEFIANT.
Seventeen-Year-Old Girl Found in a
Disorderly House, Refused to Go
Home with Her Sister.
Mr. and Mrs. Michael Dolun, of Jer
myn, walked Into the Centre street sta
tion house about 8 o'clock last night
and told Acting' Sergeant aocrlltz that
they wanted his" assistance In getting
17-year-old Lizzie Hennessy out of
Daisy Miller's disorderly house, a few
doors awny.
Mrs. Dolan said the girl was her sis
ter and that she hod been away from
Jerniyn since last Friday. Lieutenant
of Police Feeney was sent for and
went after tho girl, accompanied by
Patrolman Kurlus and Mr. Dolan. Tlicy
found her In tho house in an upstairs
100m, clad in scant attire.
fhe was taken to the station house
and stepped Jauntily up to her sister,
with a bold, insolent air and the look
of n hardened rounder on her face. She
was chewing a piece of gum when she
came In, and she kept on chewing It
for a full minute before she deigned to
talk.
"Well, what do you want with me,
anyway, she said at last. "It's none of
our business where I go, is it."
Mrs. Dolun looked helplessly around
for a minute, and then turned plead
ingly to her sister.
"Won't you conio home, Lizzie," she
said. "Why did you go to that place?
WhV did you go? Won't you come
back to Jerniyn and live with us?"
There was a fine defiance In Lizzie's
bearing while her sister was talking,
and she shrugged her shoulders inso
lently when she had finished.
"No, I won't go back," she said. "I
wouldn't live with you if you paid roc
to. The last woman I worked for
wouldn't have mo because my brother's
in the penitentiary, and I went to
Dalsle's because I couldn't go any
where else. I couldn't get any work,
and I had" to go somewhere. I won't
live with you, though."
"Well, you'll have to go to jail or
some institution if you don't come with
us," said Mrs. Dolan. "Come, Lizzie,
bo sensible, and come back with us.
Plense do."
"I told you I won't,' and I won't," re
torted Lizzie. The next moment she
was in a cell and Mr. and Mrs. Dolan
were on their way to tho Delaware and
Hudson station.
The girl Is a half-sister of John Kin
ney, who is serving a nineteen year's
sentence in the Eastern penitentiary
for the murder of his wife In Carbon
dale, some three years and a half ago.
She claims to have been led Into the
Miller woman's house on Wednesday
night by an older girl.

GREEK PRIEST
IS ENJOINED
ORDERED TO VACATE THE
CHURCH PROPERTY,
Jttdgo Kelly Grants an Injunction
Against Rev. John Armand, For
mer Pastor of the Olyphant Greek
Catholic Church, Who Was Ex
communicated by Bishop Hoban
for Unpatriotic Utterances in Con
nection with the Assassination of
President McKinley.
Hev. John Armand, tho Greek Cath
olic priest t Olyphant, who was ex
communicated by Ulshop Hoban Tor
unpatriotic utterances regarding the
assassination of President McKinley,
was, yesterday, ordcicd by Judge Joint
P. Kelly to surrender possession of tho
Oreek Catholic church property, which
he has been adversely holding since
Feb. i!J last.
The Oreek Catholic: churches of this
region having no episcopacy of their
own elected to place themselves under
tho Jurisdiction of the Roman Catholic
bishops, and tho Oreek Catholics of
Olyphant, wllh others of their faith
hereabouts, placed themselves under
the jurisdiction of Hlshop Hoban. When
ltev. John Armand was called to the
Olyphant church, ho applied for and
secured faculties from Ulshop Hobnn.
Besides attending to his pastoral du
ties the Greek priest edited a paper
called "Swoba." Its editorials w.cre of
a rather extreme socialistic trend, and
some of them closely approached the
anarchical. When President McKinley
was assassinated the "Swoba" con
tained an editorial which sought to ex
tenuate the crime. Bishop Hoban's at
tention was called to it and he sum
moned tho writer to come before him.
Just what took place Is not disclosed,
but tho action of the bishop, whatever
It was, resulted In Rev. Armand de
claring against the bishop's nuthorlty.
On Feb. 22, after the usual forms had
been gone through with Bishop Hoban
ex-communicated him, and sent anoth
er Greek priest to take charge of the
pastorate.
Rev. Armand refused to give up pos
session of the church property, and
proceeded to establish a now church of
a political-religious character. Those
of the congregation who would not sub
scribe to the new faith were refused
admittance to the church, and recent
ly, one of thoold parishioners was pro
hibited from burying his child in the
church cemetery.
Yesterday, the members of the old
congregation, through a committee con
sisting of George Simiawa, Samuel Ru
sen, Joseph Fechlnn, Alex Tomaska
vlch, Harry Blomyar, Simon Hamar
nlck and Paul Polka, went into equity
court, by Attorneys O'Brien & Martin,
and reciting the facts set forth above,
asked for an injunction restraining ltev.
