SOUTH SCRANTON NOTES.
7"
Euchre Party Conducted in St. John's
Hall on. Stone Avenue Julian
Cooper's Lucky Escape.
St. John's hall on Stone avenue was
crowded with young people last even
ing, the attraction being the first ot a
series of euchre parties, which will
tako place weekly during the social
season, the proceeds to be donated to
the new church being erected on Or
chard street.
The young ladles of the parish have
taken up the matter of raising funds,
and one member in each family will
have entire charge of the weekly gath
erings. Miss Tessle McGoldrlck had
sole charge last evening, and the young
lady won many econlums for the effic
ient manner In which the arrangements
were carried out. Fifty tables in Ave
sections were set about the hall for the
players, and at 10 o'clock every one
was occupied by Interested players, all
striving for the various good things do
nated as prizes.
The winning lady was presented with
a cologne atomizer, and the leading
gentleman received a pair of silk sus
penders. The booby prizes were palm
lilies for the lady, and a suit of doll's
clothes for the gentleman.
During the games a short musical
programme was rendered. The Misses
Annie McDermott and Annie Thomas,
of Hyde Park, sang several selections
in a charming manner, and piano selec
tions were also rendered by Harry
Walsh. Miss McGoldrlck was assisted
by the following young ladles: The
Misses Mary and Kate Cavanaugh, of
Carbondnle; Mary and Bridget Judge,
Sarah Kilcullen, Mamie Marley, Lizzie
Cawley and Jessie McGoldrlck.
Cooper Was Lucky.
Julian Cooper, who terrorized the
residents on Brock street, Wednesday,
and who after shooting at his brother-in-law,
fled to the mines, was yesterday
arrested on a warrant sworn out by
Charles Aylesworth, and locked up In
the Alder street station house by Pa
trolman James Qulnnan.
lie was given a hearing before Mag
istrate Storr last evening, and after
talking over the affair with the plaintiff
the charges were withdrawn, Cooper
agreeing to pay all costs.
An Old Man in Trouble.
John Du Bottcs was brought before
Alderman Lentes last evening, on the
charge of obtaining money under false
pretences. The charge was preferred
by John Nowlcky, of Elm street, who
stated that some time ago he bought a
property from Du Boltes, which Is lo
cated on South Vebstor avenge.
The consideration was $850, and he
paid $33 on account. When the deed
was being prepared it was found by
the records thut the property had been
nlrcady disposed of to persons residing
In Philadelphia. A demand was then
made for the return of the deposit, but
Du Bolts was unable to pay.
He explained at the hearing that
some time ago he mudo nn agreement
with a relative, whereby he gave them
tho property, they to keep him in
board as long as he lived nnd pay him
besides $2 a month. Later this party,
although having secured a deed of the
lot, moved to Philadelphia, and since
that time have failed to keep tho agree
ment. For this reason the defendant was
ot the belief that tho property was his,
and as he is In feeble health proceeded
to sell as abovo described. After
hearing both sides the alderman held
the defendant for court In $300 ball, but
It Is likely the case will bo settled.
Pleasantly Surprised.

home of Mr. and Mrs, Morrison, on

deserting his wife and was directed to
pay her $10 per month. He nllcges that

henrlng on a rulo to show cause why
he should not be finally discharged.

My Lady's Fall Attire
Is the subject of every day conversation among well
dressed, well bred Avoincn now. Fashion Plates showing
styles for fall Avear have been out for a month, but pictures
arc so misleading that one cannot discuss fashions depicted
in them intelligently.
The New Fall Walking Skirts
Arc all in now, while many Avorthy examples of
New Fall Tailored Gowns
For street Avear or traveling, arc also on exhibition and
the stock Avill be fully complete Avithin the next ten days.
Many Ladies' are averse to Avcariug rcady-to-wcar gar
ments, because they have read so much about the dirt and
squalor of the "sweat-shops."
Wc have simply to say that Ave are thoroughly familiar
with factories and .work rooms Avhere all our Ready-to-Wcar
Garments are made, and can assure our patrons that there is
no cause for fear on the grounds mentioned above. Every
garment offered by us is made
work rooms, where the sanitary arrangements are perfect, and
the work people clean and well paid. Wc can prove this state
ment if need be.
