HAD HER EYE
KNOCKED OUT
SORRY EXPERIENCE OP A
WILKES-BARRE WOMAN.
u
Assaulted In a Dark Spot On Mifflin
Avenuo by n Malo Companion and
Left Lying Where She Fell with
Her Eye and Consciousness Gone.
Pollco Thought it Was Anothor
Boschitcr or Quinn Case Until tho
Victim Revived at tho Lackawanna
Hospital.
Memories of the Boschitcr, Qltlnn and
other cases of llciullsh assault were
awakened In the minds of the Sernntoit
police, last night, when a telephone
message tu headquarters announced
that a young woman was lying half
dead In a dark place on Mllllln avenue,
as the result of an attack by some
brute bearing the semblance of male
humanity.
The pollco wagon, with Superinten
dent Day, Lieutenant Feenoy, City De
tective Dieter and a squad of patrolmen
was rushed to the scene.
Visions of a night of searching for
the iiKBullant passed before tho eyes
of tho blue coats as they were hastened
down from headquarters, nnd deter
mination to seek no rest till the culprit
was apprehended marked their counten
ances. Tho woman was found as described
In tho telephone message, excepting
that she was not dying. A largo lump
on tho forehead over the eye, however,
attested that she had received some
lough treatment.
Just how roughly she had been treat
ed was not apparent In the darkness
and she, herself, was not In condition
to give details. Consequently tho
Lackawanna hospital ambulance was
summoned.
At the hospital, an examination made
the startling disclosure that tho
woman's left eye had been knocked out.
The socket was empty, and a. glance
told that It had not been empty any
great length of time.
Murmurs of denunciation of tho awful
outrage were heard from tho police and
hospital attendants, but before they
had risen to audible words of Indigna
tion they were hushed by a querry from
tho assaulted lass regarding her loss.
"Where In Is my eye? Oh! my
eye, and I just got It new last month."
Superintendent Day bent over and had
a look. Incidentally he had a whiff.
"Huh! said the superintendent and
"huh" said the doctors. The patrol
wagon was backed up to the door of the
operating room and the victim of the
terrible outrage was carted to the police
station.
One .of the older ofllcers there recog
nized her as a Wllkes-Barre woman-of-tho-town.
When she regained her
senses, she told that a "nuiig man with
whom she went walking n.J .."er with
his fist in a quarrell on Mifflin avenue
and that In falling she struck her head
on the ground and lost consciousness
und her now eye.
Ofllcers were sent out to look for the
assailant and the eye but up to mid
night were unsuccessful In both quests.
The woman gave the name of Katie
Kramer.

The Faelten
Pianoforte
System.
Tho Faelten System of Fundamental Training Is not In tho
pamo category with tho old systoniless methods of teaching
the piano, and should not ho compared with them, except In
tliu results achieved. Subjects lllco scale formations In nil of
tho major and minor keys, and the practical application of
this knowledgo In Transposition, tho ability to play from In
terval notation, and Its practical application In rapid staff
reading, a thorough mastery of nolo values and llmo relations
these arc subjects that hi tho old fashioned methods uro sel
dom and In the majority of cases never, mastered. In the Fool
tern System everything else must await this mastery. Wo
build a house from tho foundation, not from tho chimney
coping. Wo do not attempt mathematical problems until wo
have learned to add, subtract, multiply, and divide.
The New Schuol Year Will Begin Sep. 11.
IMPORTANT ARREST.
Police Tako Into Custody James
Slattory, Wanted at Wllkes-Barre
and Green Island.
James Slattory, late of Wllkes-Barre
and formerly of Green Island, N. Y.,
near Troy, was arrested by Superin
tendent of Pollco Lona B. Day and De
tective Robert Deltcr yesterday after
noon, on the charge of attempting to
defraud his boarding mistress in
Wllkes-Barre..
From letters found In bis pockets,
Superintendent Day has come to the
conclusion that tho capture is an Im
portant one, as there are various Indi
cations that Slattory Is wanted ut
Green Island for more serious offenses
than attempting to take French leave
from his boarding house.
Superintendent Day stated last night
that Slnttery's appearance was very
suspicious, and that he would be held
here until a reply was received from
the Green Islcand police officials, who
have been notified of the arrest.
Slattory has been working in Wllkes
Barre as u bridge builder, and on re
ceiving Ills pay yesterday afternoon,
promptly bought a ticket to Albany, X.
Y., boarded a. Delaware and Hudson
train and shook Wllkes-Barre dust
from his brogaus. He owed a board
bill of $19, and all that the woman of
the house had to show for It were some
rather threadbare clothes which Slat
tery left behind him.
The police were notified, nnd Chief
Jones 'phoned Superintendent Day. Tho
latter and Detective Deltcr arrived at
the station in time to meet the train,
recognize Slottery from the Wllkes
Barre description, arrest and lodge him
In the central station. He was still in
his working clothes when arrested. A
ticket to Albany, $21.67 and n number of
letters were found upon him.

n.rry-maklng, from hundreds of jubil
ant excursionists.
Yesterday several hundred picnickers

Ho Is Succeeded by Chief Keeper
Miles McAndrew of Archbnld.
As n consequence of the Throop In
cident of Tuesday night, Warden Simp
son of the county jail, yesterday,
tendered bis resignation to Sheriff
Schadt.
Yesterday afternoon, a notlco was

nation and tho appointment of Chief
Keeper Miles McAndrew of Archbald,
to till the vacancy. William Klein, of
South Scranton, who has been serving
as a guard of the chain gang for two
years has been appointed keeper.
.
She Was Embarrassed,
A few days ago a society not many
miles from Scranton ran an excursion
toSnio of our pretty lakes, There were
a great many mileage books presented
for fare, They were, of course, turned
down and a regular excursion ticket
demanded. Nearly all who were caught
In this predicament were able to pur
chase their excursion tickets. In ono
ease, however, that of a lady with threo
children, tho circumstances were ex
ceedingly embarrassing'. She bad fig
ured on getting to the lake and back on
her mileage and was not prepared to
put tho cash Into four ticket's. Friends
nearby caino to her assistance, but the
situation, to say the least, was very
annoying, Moral: Do not try to go to
Lnko Ariel with the Jr, O. U, A. M. on
Saturday, August 16, with a mileage
book, as they will not be accepted on
tho S.15 a. in. or 1.33. p. m. trains.
i
"BILLY" CRAIG'S LITTLE JOKE.
Fred C. Hand Was tho Victim
of It.
"Billy" Craig Is nt It again.
Tho city has some few practical
Jokers, but none more confirmed or re
sourceful than tho aforesaid William.
Ho conceives and executes a joke at tho
proverbial "drop of a hat," and In tho
choice of victims Is ns Indiscriminate
as a tax collector.
Fred C. Hand Is his latest victim.
Fred is summering at Elmhurst.
"Billy" with a friend, who Is also
somewhnt of a Joker, were driving out
Elmhurst way the other day und
chanced to. pass tho Hand cottage.
"Let's put up a rig on Fred," sug
gested Craig.
"All right; whafll it be?" said bis
companion.
Billy scratched his gilt-crowned bead
a moment, nnd then with "I've got It;
come on," headed for the Hand home,
followed by his friend.
Entering they found Mr. Hand at
home and delighted to see them. After
the usual formalities, Craig proceeded
to tell, as only the Innocent-looking
Craig can tell, that he und his friend
were a committee from a coterie of ad
miring friends, who had met Informally
the day before and decided to attest,
with some little substantial token, their
appreciation of Mr. Hand's efforts In
giving the people of Scranton a series
of high-class musical attractlons.whlch,
but for these efforts, the city would
never get.
Concluding his prefatory remarks,
Craig drew from bis pocket his own
new gold watch and handed It to tho
"surprised and delighted" Hand.
The circumstances scarcely warranted
formalities, but Mr. Hand could not re
frain from what ho felt was an ap
propriate response in words, nnd then
suiting actions to these words, made
Craig and bis fellow-conspirator par
take of something of everything that
the house afforded In the way of hospi
tality. Tho cigars he offered met with
so much commendation from Craig that
Hund made him take a box of them
along with him.
Towards the close of the hour which
the "committee" enjoyed on the Hand
veranda, Craig, with a sudden self-accusing
slap on his knee, began to apolo
gize for not having had the watch suit
ably engraved. "Ought to be something
telling about tho occasion of the pres
entation and who gave it and that sort
of thing," averred Craig, and so angry
was he with himself for not having
attended to It, that ho insisted on
taking the watch and having the en
graving done that very night, even If
he bud to wake some Jeweler out of
bed to do it.
Craig took tho watch, with nil man
ner of apologies for his thoughtless
ness, and drove away, slashing the
horse as if his anger with himself was
something positively uncontrollable.
It is needless to say that Mr. Hand
is still waiting for the watch.

For the First Time in the History of
the Saratoga Floral Fetes,
which have become world known, an
Illuminated parado will be the main
attraction this year. This will occur
on tho night of Thursday, September
4, and will be one of the most spec
tacular pageants yet presented in
America. Thousands of torches and
hundreds of pretty women mingling in
a panorama of beauty, with a night
sunburst of light, will make a scene as
picturesque as It Is unusual.
This being the first time that n night
foto lias been attempted at Saratoga,
no expense will be spared to make It as
successful as money will warrant.

A Noted Medial Specialist
Speaks for tbe Benefit of
' Hot Weather Sufferers,
He Maintains Hint
PAINE'S CELERY
COMPOUND
Is a Diinlshcr of Dhcruo mid a
Restorer or Health.
A noted medical specialist n physi
cian possessing ample wealth ever
ready to acknowledge worth and merit,
speaks of Palne's Celery Compound, as
follows:
"In summer time, when strength
falls, when that tired, listless feeling
Is experienced from day to day, when
tho digestive organs arc not doing their
work properly, when constipation is
poisoning the blood, when disease with
Iron hand takes possession of the body,
Pnlno's Celery Compound will bo found
a marvelous banlshcr of dlseuse und a
true health restorer."
This strong statement should Influ
ence all weak, run-down and half sick
men and women during the hot August
weather. This remarkable Indorsation
of Palne's Celery Compound by an
acknowledged specialist should at once
convince the suffering' nnd diseased
that Dr. Phelps' great medical discov
ery Is what they need to restore per
fect health. The thousands of lives
fast wearing away can bo saved and
made happy and useful to families and
friends. May Heaven speedily con
vince the doubting and despondent, and
direct them to that unfailing life
giver Palne's Celery Compound.
spent In the preparations for the grand
event and arrangements arc-just pass
ing out of their primary shape. The
presentation of a night pageant In a
way satisfactory to the public, demands
the expenditure of a small fortune, and
the "presentation of such at Saratoga,
where tho people are hypercritical,
means even a greater expense.
If Saratoga during ine summer sea
son Is great, It will be Saratoga the
Groat from September 1st to 1th. The
village will trucly be transformed Info
a place of beauty and grandeur.
No set of floats ever cost more than
those which will bo In this parado at
Saratoga. They were purchased from
tho managers of tho last New Orleans
Mardl Gras, and comprise tho most
magnificent display ever seen in that
city of gorgeous shows. Tho Veiled
Prophets' parado of St. Louis, which
has become famous, does not come
anywhere near being as pretty or as
attractive as the Proteus aggregation
of floats. Those who saw them at New
Orleans this spring, pronounced them
to bo the finest ever displayed In this
country. They will bo shown at Sara
toga on the night of September 4, with
hundreds of blazing lights, Just as they
were shown at New Orleans, when they
won the praise of press, public and
critics.
