RETURNED CONVICT
ATTEMPTS BURGLARY
momas Kane, Who Is Out of Peni
tentiary Only Two Weeks, Breaks
Into Home of Martin Flnlon and
Is Caught In the Act Pleads to Be
'Lot Off, but Committed to Jail
Without Bail by Alderman Jones.
After just coming out of the Eastern
penitentiary, where lie served u term ot
four yearn for burglary, Thomas Kane,
of the West Side, Muds himself face to
,fnce with another stay at Cherry Hill.
Early yesterday morning, about t
o'clock, ho was caught breaking into
the home of Martin Flnlon, on the West
Side, and wos arrested two hours later
by Chief of Police McAndrew and Pn
. trolman William McAmlrew, while
asleep at his brother-in-law's home.
He was arraigned later In the day be
fore Alderman Jones and committed to
the county Jail without ball.
Prior to the hearing, Kane conresseu
his guilt to Mr. Flnlon and begged htm
to drop the case. When arraigned .1
few minutes later, Kane plead not
guilty.
Kane had been aroutul town a few
hours before his attempt at burglary.
He was In a Main street saloon about
11.30, and on leaving was observed by
Patrolman McAndrew. The patrolman
knowing Kane's record, and In the face
of the numerous hold-ups In the city
ccently, followed Kane's footsteps with
suspicion until he was a considerable
listance away from his beat. About 1
o'clock a small dog, scarcely large
enough to frighten a mouse, aroused
the. Flnlon family with his sharp, pierc
ing bark. Mrs. Gllhool, a daughter of
Mr. Flnlon, who was visiting at her
'ather's home, was startled, on being
iroused, to see a man endeavoring to
fcllmb into the window of the dining
room, which led off the room where she
was sleeping. She made a pretense that
some one In the house was armed and
courageously kept up a shout for her
father to shoot. Mr. Flnlon, In the
meantime, himself made his way down
stairs, and, though unarmed and un
aware of how many men might be on
he outside and how they might be pre
ared to resist, he boldly struck out to
Aead off the Intruder. Kane, In the
neantlme, ceased his operations and
darted In the direction of his father-n-law's
home. Mr. Flnlon, who had
Seen joined by his son, shouted to the
"lurrying man to halt. Kane, fearful
that the Flnlons were armed and that
he might be shot, stopped and, turning
to the older Flnlon, muttered some
thing about being his friend. Flnlon,
after he and his son recognized Kane,
told the latter he could go, that his case
would be attended to in the morning.
Kane Immediately struck out for his
brother-in-law's.
Patrolman McAndrew was Immedi
ately notified. He aroused Chief Mc
Andrew and both went to tin Rhlne
vault home, where Kane had made for.
Kane was lying on the sofa, fully
dressed. He made no protest, and was
placed In the city jail.
At 11 o'clock yesterday forenoon,
Kane was taken before Alderman
Jonps. When he entered the olllce he
espied Mr. Flnlon. Reckoning htm to a
side room, he implored Mr. .Flnlon to
ieslst In the prosecution. "For God's
take," said Kane, "don't push this case,
for. it means two or three years more
for me." Mr. Flnlon told Kane, how
ever, that he would not retreat from
the duty he owed his family and the
whole community.
Kane, when arraigned, plead not
Bullty. ,
Mr. Pinion's story was that Kano
must have used a jack or some other
Instrument with which to pry off a slat
of the shutters, which were securely
fastened. After breaking: the slut he
unfastened the catch of the shutters
and then raised the window high
enough to fasten it with the catch. He
was climbing up on the sill when Mr.
Pinion's daughter shouted, causing him
.to retreat. The circumstances of Fin
Ion's recognition or Kano being related,
as given above, the alderman com
mitted the prisoner to jail without ball.
"Thomas," said Alderman Jones,
"your earlier experience which brought
you to the penitentiary ought to check
you, but It doesn't appear to have any
effect."
Kane was released from the peniten
tiary about two weeks ago, and has
spent some time, but not all, In Car
bondale since coming home; lie divided
his time between this city and Scran
ton. During the recent hold-ups, more
or less suspicion was nttached to him,
but nothing was learned that Impli
cated him. His record Is a bad one, and
since it became known, that he was
home, West Side residents have been In
fear of an attack from him. He ap
pears to have a weakness for robbing
places, whether or not his booty may
be of any value to him. Once he robbed
a shoemaker's shop, taking hammers
and shoo nails, which were of no use
.

Children Like Grape-Nuts.

The crime of which he was convicted
and sent to the Eastern penitentiary
was the robbery and assault ot aged
Mr. and Mrs. Nicholas Devlne, of
Hrooklyn, He had an accomplice, who
has since been released, and has ap
parently reformed. Kane was given live
years by the late Judge aunster, but
was released, under the new commuta
tion act, some time before the expira
tion of his sentence. If convicted of
the crime of yesterday, he will be
obliged to serve this unexpired term,
together with whatever sentence the
court may Impose,
Another Attempt at House-Breaking.
Another attempt at housp-brenklng
was made at the home of Deputy City
Treasurer Michael Connor, on Railroad
street, a few nights ngo. Patrolman
Cnrdcn observed a man sneak through
the side gate of the premises, but
though he quickly followed, the man
eluded him. Later, the wntchmnn nt
the Clover Leaf Manufacturing com
pany discovered a man trying to raise
a window of the Connor home. This
wns evidently the same man, who had
leturned, and who was acting In the
belief that Mr. Connor kept an Inviting
sum of money near him.
THOS. O'CONNELL DEAD.
He Was a. Besldent of Carbondale
Half a Century A Well-to-Do Re
tired Merchant.
Thomas O'Connell, a resident of Car
bondale 11 half a century, whose good
fortune allowed him to retire from
mercantile pursuits several years ago,
died nt his home, South Church street
and Seventh avenue, about It o'clock
yesterday forenoon. Death followed a
sickness which manifested Itself In an
attack of stomach trouble about two
years ago. Since then he failed gradu
ally, though the end came yesterday
sooner than was anticipated.
Mr. O'Connell was born In Little
Neck, Long Island, February 20, 1840,
and wns therefore in his sixty-third
year. He came to Carbondale when he
was only 12 years of age, and com
menced to learn the candy trade with
the late Daniel Piendergast. He left
Carbondale when 18 years old, In com
pany with his brother, Andrew O'Con
nell, both being attracted to the gold
fields. His ventures were profitable,
and when he returned In 1860 he had
sufficient capital to go Into the res
taurant business in the Raynor prop
erty, where Boylan & Brennan con
duct a similar business today. This
followed the big lire In the lower part
of the town, which destroyed a large
hotel, thus giving the O'Connell Bros.
Increased opportunities ofsuccess. They
had an Immense patronage and from
the money acquired made some good
purchases of real estate. Among these
were the buildings extending from the
Star clothing store, on Main street,
around the corner as far as the Gillis
building on Park Place. The frame
business block on Sajeni avenue, re
cently purchased by Joseph A. Hoole,
was Included In the holdings, In which
Mr. O'Connell had more than a half
interest. More to keep himself occu
pied than anything else. Mr. O'Connell
kept a grocery store on Park Place
until a Tew years ago, when his falling
health compelled him to retire.
Mr. O'Connell was shrewd and thrirty
nnd was noted for his close application
to business. His name is associated
with the growth and pi ogress or the
town, for he lent his efforts freely to
advance Carbondale's interests, lie was
not active In polities, though he gave
his support, both by his personal en
deavors and his money, to the munici
pal water plant project, having been a
member of the "committee of one hun
dred." Mr. O'Connell's chler interest
was in his family, In whom all his In
terests seemed to center. He was ar
dent In the practices of his faith, even
while sickness was upon him. His circle
of friends wos a large one.
Mr. O'Connell Is survived by his wife,
one son, Andrew J. O'Connell; two
daughters, Misses Mary and Margaret
O'Connell; a half-brother, James Gor
man, and a half-sister, Mrs. James
Morrison, nil or this city. To these be
reaved ones widespread sympathy Is
extended.

HONESDALE PRESS
SAYS GENEROUS THINGS
Editor Haines, of Independent, Pays
Deserved Editorial Tribute to Car
bondale's Delegation of Saturday.
Other Base Ball Echoes.
The delegation of Carbondallaus who
went to the Maple City and enlivened
that respectable village on Saturday,
as It was never enlivened before, will
blush to a man with modesty as this
generous contilbutlou from the pen of
our esteemed co-laborer. Editor B. F.
Haines, of the Wayne Independent', is
read. In discussing the game of Satur
day, ho chose to express himself In an
editorial In yesterday's Issue, as fol
lows. Ye 4114 braves who were with us,
If ye have ears, listen;
Our brother qulll-ilrlvers over the moun
tain are dill caviling and quipping over
baie hall matters or the past and the
present and the merits and demerits of
playeis, clubs and umpire decisions, but
putting alt nonsense and prejudice and
lying aside. Manager Tappun, of the Car
bondale "Pets" and his club are gentle
men and the ciowd of visitors from our
nelghboilng city who accompanied them,
bent on noise, fun and frolic, were to ,110
great extent unbecoming lu base ball
maimers or conduct at the game or dur
ing their 'Hojoiirn here last Saturday. Par
lor proprieties and upper ten social amen
ities are not expected of a throng wit
nessing the national game. The assem
blages that gather to see these games
take In any class fiom the street arab
to the preacher and occasional breaches
or propriety and the peace among the
spectators are apt to be unavoidable and
expected Incidents. Not anything, how
ever, ot it rowdy nature worthy of notice
occurred on Saturday.
In justice to our neighbor over the
mountain the Independent wishes to say
that they gave our lovers of base ball
one of the most Interesting events of the
kind they ever had the pleasure of at
tending and witnessing. Monesdale Is
ready for another fun-stirring time Just
like it.
Our town and Its newspaper men were
impieparecl for the unexpected number
of visitors and did not give them the
hospitable reception and consideration
justly due them. We are in u measure
amenable to criticism for an oversight
In tills lespeet.
Other Honesdale Comments.
The Independent publishes a couple
of columns of smai t comment on the
game, cteatlng opportunities here and
theie to extraordinarily stretch the
truth in order to have some amusement
at our expense. But who would deny
these simple rustic folk such harmless
amusement. A goodly portion of The
Tribune's account is reprinted in the
Independent, including the clever poem
written by Colonel John McComb, which
made one of the greatest of the after
hits of the game.
' We caruiot resist the inclination to
use this paragraph fiom Manager Dltt
rich's favorite paper to confirm what
we said about "Billy" Miller not" being
n resident of Honesdale at the time
that the Honesdale manager wired him
to come to the Maple City to play. Says
the Independent:
William Miller, who played the star
game of tlm day, learned to play ball
In llonewlale, He was coachman for Dr.
O'Connell for several years. Ho camo to
Honesdale 011 Friday night to arrange
for a boot black stand at tho Allen
house barber shop and pioposes to do
business there, lie N not an ex-Cuban
Giant. The Giants tried to sign him this
year, but he refused to go.
' Hurrah for the Striplings I
The Independent's tribute to the
hardy Striplings reads:
The noise makers who accompanied
the Cnibond.ile vlsltois to Honesdale last
Saturday ale organized and trained root
ers under tho name of Amalgamated As
sociation of Curbstone Striplings, No. 4C0.
They added eclat, amusement and excite
ment to tlie game. Without thorn the
play would have been qulot and tame and
devoid of blare, clamor and clatter, ele
ments that never lull to arouo tho en
thusiasm of the populace.
