LUTHER C. SMITH, Superintendent. ••The Stowaway." Few plays produced within the last ten years possess more gonuine human interest than "The Stowaway," which is hooked for the Grand opera house tonight. Its success lias been phenom enal, exceeding that of any English melodrama over brought to this country. Its story appeals to the best emotions in man, and it presents a series of picturesque and realistic scenes illus trating life, not only in the mysterious depths of London, but in the sweet and fragrant countryside as well. Its exciting incidents, natural in the developments, betray the hand of a master in dramatic construction and win applause from all classes. The eye is pleased witli the vivid realism achiev ed by the art of the scene painter and the ingenuity of the stage mechanic, who have contrived to give to "The j Stowaway" a more elaborate setting than was ever before givon an English drama. The lover of sensationalism in its best and dignified sense will find the blowing open of a burglar-proof safe by those two expert but now reformed cracks men, "Spike" Hennessey and "Kid" McCoy, one of the njost thrilling inci dents in the wholo range of the drama. The company is classed as one of the strongest on the road and has been recently notably reinforced by the en gagement of "Rig Hill" Royd as under study to "Spike" Hennessey.

BRIEF REVIEW OF ELEVEN-YEAR LACKAWANNA CONTEST. l>iuiiKe Suit Which W. Trleil and ltc- Triril and in Which tlie KnpiitatlunH of I'romiiicnt Men Were Often Involved. Kud Came I.a.t Week. As announced in tho TKIBUNK 011 Thursday the case of John G. Jennings, of Minooka, against tho Lehigh Valley Railroad Company had been settled out of court. The settlement was announc ed at Stroudsburg, where the case was to have been tried by certification from the courts of Lackawanna county. Nothing definite has leaked out as to the terms of tho settlement, but there is a fairly well authenticated rumor, says the Scranton Times, that Mr. Jenningsjroceived a substantial sum of money and most people will bo glad that he did. No legal proceedings ever instituted in the courts of Lackawanna county gave rise to so many sensational inci dents as tho cases hased on the injury to young John Jennings in the disaster at Mud Run on October 10, 1888. The lirst sensation came in the original trial of tho case of the injured young man, when, after a verdict had been render ed in favor of the defendant, the late Judge Connolly summarily set the ver dict aside as being against the evidence. After that sensation followed sensation in such quick succession as to make tho case colcbrated, not only in the county, but throughout the state. It even received columns of space in the great metropolitan newspapers. Thero was a direct clash of expert testimony as to the seriousness of young Jennings' injuries, and Mr. Jen nings and his attorneys claimed that the railroad company had procured somebody to falsely porsonato the in jured boy and undergo examination be fore tho doctors whose testimony in dicated that the injuries were slight, and that the malformation of tho breast, the chief basis for damages, was congential and not a result of the acci dent. The truth of this allegation was never established. Dr. F. R. Gulick, a physician of good repute, was a witness at ono of tho trials. Ho testified 011 tho part of the company and was severely cross-examin ed. On the day following the city was stunned by the announcement that 110 was dead from tho result of a gunshot wound. Tho gun was in his own hands and it was claimed by his friends to bo accidentally discharged wliilo he was cleaning it. But he was known to be in a highly nervous condition and thero has always been an impression among tlie public that tho ordeal of the witness stand unbalanced his mind and that lie shot himself while in an irresponsible condition. Thero were direct charges of jury packing in tho case and charges of conspiracy against the plaintiff, in which all the judgos of tho Lackawanna courts, all the county officers who had anything to do with, the case, and about a .dozen of tho foremost attor neys of the city were arranged as the conspirators. A number of tho per sons so charged brought suit for dam ages against Cornelius Smith and John G. Jennings for defamation of charac ter and a judgment which was recovered for a large amount against Mr. Smith was set aside and tho case is still pend ing in tho courts, as Is also a suit for damages brought by Mr. Smith against his opponents. The upshot of the many charges against the court was tho disbarment of Cornelius Smith, tho attorney of Jen nings. Mr. Smith appealed from the judgment of tlie lower court to tlie supremo court and got a favorablo de cision to tlie extent that ho should be re admitted after one year, if ho should not offend within that time. A much longer time than a year found him still on the outside and it was only after making an apology satisfactory to the court that he was allowed to take up tho practice of his profession once again. Other incidents of this most remark able case were two petitions to tho legislature asking for tho impeachment of all the judges of tho Lackawanna courts and the candidacy of Cornollus Smith for judge last fall. Now that tho cause of all the trouble has been amicably arranged between the parties in interest, the collateral litigation will probably be settled, too, and the Jennings-Lehigh Valley cases will pass into history. It will bo very lively and entertaining history at that. Meeting of Itorough Council. The borough council met Thursday evonlng with Messrs. Kline, Keck, Davis, Schwabo, ltuto and DePiorro present.
