THREE HIGHWAYMEN
TO ANSWER AT COURT
Edward, Alios "Skinner" Devlne,
James Purcell and James Connors,
Arraigned Before Alderman Jones.
1 , Purcell Out on Ball J the Other Two
Go to Jail The Story of the Mid
night Hold-up Not So Brigand-like
as Appeared at First Blush.
! Tho midnight hold-up on Fullbrook
street, on Thursday night, developed
.yesterday to bo In detail as told ex
clusively In Tho Tribune or yesterday.
The happening however; was stripped
somewhat of Its gravity, when tho facts
.and L'trcuhistniices were sifted ut yes
terdtiy'9 hearing of the- trial before Al-
dermlnf 'Jones:
AM" Hinted In The Tribune, the partici
pants were Edward, alias "Skinner"
1 " Devlin?.' .Trillion Purcell and James Con
nors". They' were arraigned together.
Hen Fancher, 'their victim, told his
story, which was substantially the same
that he told Immediately after the hold
up, on which The Tribune's report was
based.
None of the three displayed a
weapon, rancher said, though" the old
est of the trio, Connors, said something
about shooting. They got no .money
from him, Func-hcr went on, because
lie hud none to give them; neither did
' they attempt to rllle or go through his
pockets.
Devlne, he said, grabbed the horse's
reins. In front of Charles Schlmmell's
house, and Purcell und Connors pulled
him or forced him out of the buggy.
Devlne walked behind him, the other
two on either side, until they reached
tho Arlington house, on Duuduff street,
and Fancher began to shout so lustily
that he attracted .Patrolman Carden,
who was nearby. The Urio, Funchcr
said, represented they wpre ofllcersS and
Insisted they would take him to jail
unless he produced $5. His horrfe he
found by the roadslde.when he returned
after the capture of the, trio by the
police.
Alderman Jones was not impressed
by the evidence that there was any pre
meditated plan on the part of any of
the accused to rob Fancher. They hap
pened upon him on the roadway. The
three had been drinking. Seeing Fan
cher was partly asleep und knowing
him, they held him up for n drink or
two, and half-urged and half-forced
him along to the nearest saloon they
might Mud open. In the meantime,
Fancber's shouts' drew the police nnd
upset the men's calculations.
The alderman, while impressed with
the belief that 'theie was no intent to
10b, sternly rebuked the trio for their
Intercepting Fancher on the highway.
Tills of itself constituted a misde
meanor, and opened possibilities of the
'commission of a felonious act. The
public should be protected against such
molestation, even though It was cloaked
by the motive of procuring another
drink, He then held the three on three
charges highway robbery, attempt at
felonious assault and impersonating an
officer.
The total bail was $'.i00 in each case.
Purcell's father went his son's secur
ity, but neither Devlne nor Connois
could-get bail and were taken to the
lounty jail by Chief of Police McAn
drow on the r,.23 Delaware and Hudson
train last night.
Devlno and Purcell are natives of
Carbondale and live In the Dundaff sec
tion. Connors Is a comparatively new
comer. He lived in New York until
about a year ago, when lie moved to
Carbondale. He has a handsome face.
and though not large In stature, he is
, well-built, and has the bearing of a
soldier. He has strikingly good looks,
V but In his shabby clothing and his be
ing arraigned on the charge he was,
made Ids appearance in Alderman
Jones' court not a trifle Incongruous.

One Way to Make Lawyers.
You can dig up the lawyers and put
them on their leet if you feed them
right, but they are like other people,
they don't thrive on poorly selected
food,
A lawyer from Seneca Falls, New
York, says: "When I went Into a law
office I was in lino health huvlng had
much out-door exercise, but at the end
of the second month's study and work
I was disheartened to llnd myself In
poor health and failing every day.
After reading a short time I would
become so nervous thafl would be com-
peiieu to stop nor could I remember,
io any extent, what I read.
4 The study of Joy, .which at Ilrst was a
, great pleasure, .became u burden, and a
first-class physician told mo that I nev--eFwoitrd
be able to serve a full term in
a law olllce, ana advised me to give it
up If I wanted, 'to enjoy life. When
upon (he point, of doing so I wus tuik-
, Jug one day with one of the ilrm who-
nuviseu mo to make n, change In food
and recommended very highly your

Delaware & Hudson Company Trying
to Break Up Michevious Practice.
Brakeman Struck Under the Eye
by Missile.
Tho Dolawaie & Hudson company,
through Its detective, Martin Crlppcn
Is endeavoring, with earnestness and
vigor, to effectually stop a mlschevious
and dangerous practice of lads along
tne Honesdale branch, who stone pas
sing trains, choosing passenger as well
as freight as their targets.
As the llrst step In this direction,
Detective Crlppcn yesterday, had n
quurtette of boys, the oldest ten years,
arraigned before Alderman Jones.
The specllle charge was a serious one.
as a stone hurled by one of tho boys,
struck Brakeman John J. Murray, of
Honesdale, under !he eye, almost per
manently affecting his sight. The
stone was hurled at the freight train
on Wednesday afternoon, while it was
rounding the curve at the Carbondale
Metal Working company's plant. Mur
ray saw tlie stone Hying, but could not
dodge the missile. It weighed about
six 'ounces and struck with greater
force because of the speed of the train.'
There was no way of identifying the
guilty lad, nnd It was only through
Constable Neary's shrewdness that the
boys who were arraigned could be
taken in.
Even after an examination, no ab
solutely sure evidence was adduced.
Arthur Glbbs, of Park street, one of
the three arraigned, was tho only one
held. Ho was detained on the evidence
of n companion, Fred Tuttle, who
swore positively that Glbbs threw the
stone. Glbbs himself swore as positive
ly that he was at the ball game at
the hour of the stone-throwing, and
he was corroborated by Ernest Barnes
nnd Edward Lord, who said they were
with him at the ball game. Tuttle's
story, however, wus given credence ns
against the others, nnd Glbbs was held
in ball for his appearance at court.
Detective Crippen made quite a
statement at the hearing in which he
stated that the company was determin
ed to break up the practice, thereby
protecting the lives of the br.ikemen as
well as its passengers. It was a duty
the company owed the public, which it
would not shirk. Passenger trains as
well as freight have been stoned. The
boys aim at striking the car wheels,
and other portions of the train. Fre
quently of late stones have crashed
through passenger coach windows,
causing passengers to narrowly escape
being struck. A short time ago, a
timid woman passenger sustained a
severe nervous shock by a stone com
ing through the window, showering
the glass on her.
Last Wednesday, Mr. Crippen stated,
three trains were reported as stoned by
boys. Tho danger In the case of the
Brakemen Murray was in the possibil
ity of the stone striking with such force
as to stun, causing tho brakeman to
fall from the box cars and under the
wheels.

A Delightful Social Event.

teacheis of the primary department of
the Frst Presbyterian Sunduy school
by two of their number, Mrs. A. F.
Fey and Miss Anna Belle Watorfleld.

NOT AN ENVIABLE ONE WAS
THAT OF THIS VETERAN,
It Caused Private Draper a Great
Deal of Misery How a Friend
'.Come to His Aid.
One of the Best Numbers.
The Tribune, yesterday inadvertently
omitted one of the best numbers at the
commencement exercises of St. Rose
academy on Thursday evening, tho
vocal duet by Miss May Moflltt and
Willie C. Price. It was air. Price's first
public appearance as a vocalist, and
his sweet singing was keenly enjoyed
and received with hearty annlause.
Miss Moflltt whoso voice in solo work
Is regarded as a part of the Important
recitals of the city, was characteristic
ally splendid. Miss Moflltt and Mr.
Price had to respond to a hearty encore.
Dr. James Clune's Departure.
As was announced in The Tribune a
few weeks ago, Dr. James Clune, son of
Mr. and Mrs. John Clune, of this city,
has accepted n highly remunerative
offer to practice dentistry, in South
Africa, and will leave In a few days
with Charles Henley, of Lynn, Mass.,
for Pretoria, South Africa. Dr. Clune,
who has just been graduated from the
University of Pennsylvania, hopes to
recuperate his health while awav.
Many well wishes go with him for his
safely and success.
Charles J. Draper, of South Shafts
bury, Vt who served In Company D,
Fourth Pennsylvania regiment during
the Spnnlsh-Amcrlcan war, brought
home with him a relic which caused
.him a great deal of misery. He tried to
riu nimsoir of It but was unable to do
so until a friend came to his aid with
what proved to be a valuable sugges
tion, Mr. Draper tells of It as follows:
"During tho encampment In Georgia
I became very 111, probably from Im
pure water, poor food and the climate.
After eating even tho lightest food I
would bloat to a great extent. My bow
els were In a very serious condition and
my heart, was so weak that a few min
utes' walk would exhaust me. could
only Just drag myself around and some
times I would have to stay In bed for a
few days. 1 was treated In Georgia and
In Porto Itlco by our company surgeon
und later by the doctor at home. They
both told me It would be months before
I could expect to see any Improvement.
"I had been in tills state of misery
for about four months when a friend
recommended Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
for Palo People. He had been benellted
by them nnd thought they might help
me. I began taking them nnd felt re
lieved In three days. I took them for
two months and they made me well
and strong. I keep tho pills by mo all
the time though I have had no need of
medicine for a long while."
Stomach trouble and nervous debility
always yield readily to the potent In
fluence of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for
Pale People. These pills nre a positive
specific for nil diseases arising from
poor blood or weakened nerves. They
cure locomotor ataxia, partial paraly
sis, St. Vitus' dance, sciatica, neuralgia,
rheumatism, nervous headache, the after-effects
of tho grip, palpitation of
tho heart, pale and sallow complexions
and all forms of weakness either In
male or female. Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills for Pale People are sold by all
dealers, or will be sent postpaid on re
ceipt of price, fifty cents u bax, or six
boxes for two dollars and fifty cents
(they are never sold In bulk or by the

THOMPSON IS SINKING.
Younger of Smnll-pox Patients Suf
fered Collapse Last Night The
End Is a Matter of Few Hours.
Another Son's Suspicious Symp
toms. Thomas Thompson, the younger of
the two smallpox patients, is sinking
fast. Late last night the- end appeared
to be not many hours off.
Early In the evening tho youth suf
fered a collapse. His heait, weakened
under the toxio elfect of the disease,
became so feeble In its murmurs that
the pulse was hardly discernible. The
physician and the nurse, under his di
rection, administered powerful heart
stlmulents, to which there was a sur
prising response. About midnight the
lad rallied surprisingly,, though he re
mained In a semi-conscious condition.
The reaction was probably due to the
heart stimulants, and another collapse
Is likely to follow soon. At any rate
the Indications point to the sufferer sur
viving but a short time; the end seems
certain to como before another da v.
During the past few days young
Thompson has been In terrible dlstiess
and sulfeiing during his more conscious
moments.
Tills patient Is the second one whu
was stricken. He Is about in ycurs old
and more frail than his elder brother
who Is making good progress towards
lecovery,
Tim other son Is now being caiefully
watched by the physician, as he has de
veloped symptoms within twenty-four
houis that are suspicious. He was vac
cinated some days ago, and while his
symptoms may be the effect of this, his
sufferings are watched with some ap
prehension as they are akin to those
of approaching smallpox.
