A TERRIFIC
RAIN STORM
MUCH DAMAGE DONE YESTER
DAY AFTERNOON.
Rain Flooded the Streets Through
out tho City .and Transformed
Many of Them Into Small-Sized
Streams Little Girl in Oreen
Ridge Nearly Drowned While At
tempting to Cross Columbia Ave-
, nue Part of Ontario and Western
Tracks Washed Out.
A terrific downpour of rain, which oc
curred yesterday afternoon, shortly
nfter 5 o'clock, turned many streets
throughout the city Into mlnlnturc
canals and cutised more or less damage
ut many points.
It began to ra'ln shortly after noon
nnd It kept up a sort of cross between
a real, genuine shower nnd a drizzle
until a little after 5 o'clock, when witter
literally began to pour from tho over
hanging clouds.
A number of streets In the central
city soon overflowed, the sewers prov
ing too small to carry off the water.
Linden street wus a good-sized lake
from Adams to Penn avenues. A break
In the pipe nt the corner of the former
thoroughfare caused a quicker over
flow than usual. The wnter backed up
on Washington avenue as far down ns
the Republican building, completely
coveting the sidewalk in front of the
federal building.
The basements of a number of busi
ness places along Lackawanna avenue
were flooded by wnter backing up from
tho sewer. A large stock of provisions
In the basement of the Coyne house
was destroyed by the water.
Many streets In Green Ridge were
flooded, also. Green Ridge street, be
low Sanderson avenue, resembled a
river, and the water flowing down
spread over the Green Ridge flats. A
little girl named Dickson, whose par
ents live on Deacon street, attempted
to cross Columbia avenue, near No. 27
school, and wns carried off her feet by
the swift current. She fell, and was
struggling in the water when a passer
by rescued her.
Surface water swelled the creek run
ning under the Ontario and Western
tracks near the Love Road and washed
away the embankment for a short
space. Section hands repaired the
damage in a few hours. None of the
other roads experienced washouts.
Street car truffle was blocked for an
hour or more on several lines by tho
tracks being covered with dirt and
causing cars to become derailed. Cars
were off the track on the Dunmore.
Providence, Green Ridge Suburban and
South Side lines. This occurred just nt
the time when big crowds are home
ward bound and as a consequence there
were hundreds of belated suppers.
Phelps street, between Washington
and Wyoming avenue, is always flooded
during a heavy rainstorm, but it was
never flooded as badly as It was yes
terday afternoon. The Inadequate spwer
accommodations in the neighborhood
cause the flooding.
The storm seemed to have its center
in Seranton. Rain fell eastward as far
as Washington, N. J and northward
as far as Blnghnmton. Moosie, on the
south, had no rain in the evening.
CEMETERY IMPROVEMENTS.
Pipes Being Laid to Carry Water for
Sprinkling Purposes.
Extensive improvements nre being
made In the Dunmore cemetery under
tho direction of Superintendent of
Grounds Henry Beyej. Among the
most Important is the laying of pipes
all over the property for the purpose or
furnishing water for sprinkling pur
poses. A car load of lead nine Is mm- nn
the grounds. It will be laid about two
reei under the surface. Tho trenches
nre now ready to receive them. It will
be arranged so that the water can all
be drawn from the pipes during the
winter season.
Several excellent springs on the m-nn-
erty will furnish nearly all the water
neenen, out connections will be made
with Seranton Gas and Water ram.
pany mains und arrangements made for
using from this source when the springs
uroe auincient. it Is expected the cost
of tho work will bo in the neighborhood

RECITAL OF PUPILS.
It Was Given in St. Luke's Parish
House Last Night.
This town will wnke up one of these
mornings to the realization that some
extraordinarily nlie voices are being
developed In the vicinity of Seranton
and that people Willi some natural vo
cal ability nre now enjoying opportuni
ties here such ns any city might well
be proud to claim.
The pupils of Madame Tlmbermnn
Haudolpli gave a recital Inst night nt
St. Luke's parish hull when seventeen
soloists gav6 a fascinating programme.
Some of tho singers have not been
heard In public, nnd nt least three of
them fnlrly astonished tho largo au
dience present with the unexpected
benuty of their voices. Nearly all have
received the chief part of their musical
Instruction from Madame Tlmbcrman
Itnndolph nnd the marvelous progress
which could bo noted by those who have
watched their advance for the past
three or four years Is Indeed signifi
cant. The choruses last night were directed
by J. M. Chance and thnt is enough to
say that they were the perfection of
choruses. The brilliant "May nueen"
number and "O Blest Redeemer" were
sung with exceeding smoothness and
finish. A feature of the programme
wns the presence of Charles Doersam,
who played some of tho accompani
ments. Mrs. Genevieve Baker wus ac
companied most of the numbers, was
very satisfactory In her work.
Miss Grace Spencer again delighted
her friends with her superb singing of
the "Sommell" solo and "Spanish
Romance."
Miss Eleanor Reynolds who most cer
tainly has a career for her choosing,
made a sensation with her great solo,
"O Divine Redeemer." Such a big
'round resonant contralto Is seldom
heard.
Miss Llda Garagan seems to sing with
more charm every year. Her work In
the trio and duet was no less excellent
than In the splendid solo of "Dellbes,"
so suited to her tones. Miss Elizabeth
Bunnell sang most sweetly in the duet
with Miss Garagan nnd gave a pleas
ing Interpretation of the Rossini Idea.
Miss Ethel Shoemaker Is one who will
yet be heard far beyond this commun
ity. She has a singularly flexible and
lovely soprano which has all tho re
sonance which Madame Timberman
Randolph succeeds so well In Impart
ing to her pupils. Miss Shoemaker Is a
niece of W. W. Berry.
Miss Alice Burns was among the most
attractive soloists. She sung two pret
ty little songs In a sweet and limpid
voice which shows many possibilities.
Miss Rose D. Gallon made a distinct
hit with her solo, "Protestations,"
with Mr. Wldmayer's violin obligato.
Her lower register is particularly musi
cal and attractive. '
Mrs. Bertha Cohin Lister, who is
such a favorite soloist in the city, sang
a spring song exceedingly well.
Miss Isabel Clarke, stately and beau
tiful, sang that exquisite "Song of
Thanksgiving," by Allltsen, with re
markable charming effect. Her voice
has so many possibilities that it Is in
teresting to watch its development and
she Is heard far tno seldom in our city.
Miss Henrietta Harris Is a little maid
of sixteen but she has temperament nnd
a beauty of tone that made her songs
among the favorites of last evening.
Miss Clara Langford of West Plttston,
who has frequently been heard her,e
nnd always with pleasure, gave the
solo, "Grass and Roses," with excellent
effect. Mr. Wldmayer played an obli
gato for this number.
Mrs. T. C. von Stnreh has an excep
tionally sweet and vibrant voicp. She
sang two numbers, "Du Blst Wle Eine
Blume," and the beautiful "In Blossom
Time," by Needhain, and her songs
were among the distinct successes of
the programme.
Miss Eleanor Doud sang a lovely
"Spring Song" by Well, with taste and
charm. Ralph D. Williams, who Is al
ways heard with pleasure, never sang
better than In tho two fine solos by
Schumann and Strauss. His middle
tones have gained much in the past two
years.
One nf the best selections of the eve
ning was the Verdi trio by Miss Spen
cer, Miss Garagan and S. II. Kings
bury. Mr. Klnttsbury's voire came out ex
ceedingly well in the solo work and the
three blended beautifully.
No encores were allowed last night
and although the programme Included1
many numbers It was not long.

SAMTER BROS.
ANDERSON WAS
DISCHARGED
WAS NOT ENOUGH EVIDENCE
AGAINST HIM.
Assistant District Attorney Thomas
Said That There Seemed to Be
Nothing to Definitely Connect
Him with the Murder of Mary
Qulnn and Refused to Appear
Against Him Superintendent Day
Advised Discharge Attorney
Scragg Said Police Acted Hastily.
Bert Anderson, of Keyscr avenue,
who was arrested on Sunday, on sus
picion of having been Implicated In the
murder of Mary Qulnn, wns discharged
from custody late yesterday afternoon
by Magistrate Millar at the request of
Superintendent of Police Day, who
made tho arrest.
The police court room In the munici
pal building was crowded with Inter
ested spectators when the case wn3
called before Magistrate Millar. Ander
son, when brought out from his cell,
was exceedingly self-possessed nnd
seemed to be bored by tho proceedings,
for he yawned several times In a tired
sort of wav.
Assistant District Attorney W. Gay
lord Thomas had been called up to the
municipal building to represent the
commonwealth at the hearing. He had
a conference with City Solicitor Wat
son nnd Superintendent Day. When the
evidence against Anderson was outlined
to him he refused to have anything to
do with the case, insisting that It would
bo a waste of time to bother with a
hearing.
City Solicitor Watson, on behalf of
Superintendent Day, said thut tho latter
had no desire to have the case go to a
hearing. It had been decided, he said,
that the evidence against Anderson
was not at all sufficient to hold him on.
There were discrepancies In the state
ments regarding his whereabouts on
tie night of tho murder and his actions
at that time, which looked suspicious,
but the police had nothing more to
offer than these "naked statements," he
said. The man's home nnd all the
buildings In tho rear of it had been
searched by the police, but nothing of
an Incriminating nature wns found.
Attorney John F. Scragg, who ap
peared for Anderson, said that while he
did not like to criticize the police, he
nevertheless believed that they acted
too hastily In this case. They should
have been thoroughly assured that they
had sufficient evidence to hold Ander
son before arresting him. Tho Injury
done to his reputation by the arrest Is
one which it will take years to repair,
he said.
"If the police." said he. "go on ar
resting every Tom. Dick and Harry
they will wenken their case. It is n
well-established fact that the more in
nocent men you arrest charged with
committing a specific crime, tho more
you weaken your case against the guilty
man. should he ever be caught. These
gossips who brought these stories to
the police should bo censured, too. Bert
Anderson Is as Innocent of the murder
of Mary Qulnn as I am, and I ask his
discharge."
Magistrate Millar took occasion to re
mark that the police only ilid their
duty In arresting Anderson, and com
plimented them for being "active, zeal
ous and faithful" in the discharge of
their duties. He discharged Anderson,
who was immediately surrounded by a
crowd of sympathizing friends and
relatives.
