A Wife,s Treacherv.

A Polish man of the First ward, over 60
years Of age, was before Squire Monaghan
last night, charged with committing rape
upon a l2-year-old girl, but hearing Of
the case established the mans innocence
and he was discharged. 1t appears that the
man quarreled with his wife and she, in a
spirit of revenge, told the marie sister of
the little girl who was brought into the case
the story that led to the arrest Upon the
hearing the wife declared that her story
was groundless. All the parties concerned
were Polish.

A young girl named Savila Shirey,
residing on North White street, became
sixteen years old to-day. She closed her
fifteenth year by figuring in a sensational
affair, in which two members Of the Arling-
ton Minstrel company figured.
The minstrels arrived in town yesterday
morning and Savila, who has been making
a rendezvous Of the Lehigh Valley depot,
was among those who watched them leave
the train. The girl is under size but has a
plump figure, a face that is not unattrao-
tive, and she dresses neat. She soon had a
speaking acquaintance with the minstres
and she followed them during the parade.
At about p. m. she left town with two
members of the company. Her mother,
who had been warned started in pursuit

constable approached Savila ran over the
hill in the direction of st. Nicholas, while
the exponents OF negro miDstrelsy gave a
natural imitation of two men hurrying of
in opposite directions. Constable Phillips
had no warrant for the men, so he started
after the girl, but lost her in the brush and
returned to town without her after three
hour search, While the performance was
going on in the theatre last night Savila
was arrested by Phillips at the stage door.

THE COMING BOOM
MORE NEWS CONCERNING THE
ELECTRIC RAILWAY.
PLANS FOR ITS CONSTRUCTION.
The Borough Council, at It's Meet
ing Tonight, Will be Asked
to Make Concessions on
Liberal Terms.

No stones are being left unturned by the
management of the Mahsnoy City, Shen-
sndoah, Girardyille and Ashland Street
Railway Company in their efforts to bring
about the early construction and compile
tion of the electric railway.
-"
The materials, part of which are to be
shipped this week, will be unloaded at tho
siding of the Kohinoor collery, and from
there hauled to the points in town and
vicinity where they may be needed.
-
1t has been decided that the ties of the
track will be inch face, inch thick and
II feet long in the ordinary highways; and
in the boroughs the size will be 8-inch face,
inch thick and u feet long. The poles
in the boroughs will be 80 feet high, 7
inches in diameter at the top, and ten
inches thick six feet from the butts They
will be planted six feet in the ground and
located 1876 feet apart. The poles outside
the boroughs will be 25 feet high. The
contract provides that the poles shall be rs
straight and neat as possible.
-
Tonight the company will ask the Bor-
ough Council to permit the laying of "I7'
rails in the town, providing the members
can be satisfied that such rail makes
track suitable for wagons and other vehicles
to cross easily.
This can be demonstrated to the street
committee if Council will authorize it to
visit Scranton and Wilkes. Barre, at the
expense of the company, to inspect the
electric railways of the two towns.
~
The company is also willing to incor-
porate in its stipulation that at the end of
six months, should Council deem the fiat
rail more desirable, the "T' rail will be
taken up and replaced by the fiat rail.
And, further, when the borough paves
streets with block, cobbe or asphalt, the
street railway company will pave between
the tracks and Is inches on the side with the
same material.
So
1t will not be long before one of these
styles of paving will be adopted by the
boroughs of the valley and the company is
satisfied that the revolution will be hastened
by the construction of the electric railway.
sa*
The company is also satisfied that the
electric railway must increase the business
Of the towns through which it will pass, as
the facilities for travel afforded by such
railways have demonstrated themselves
beneficial to all municipalities that have
been fortunate enough to secure them.

1t will be very expensive to construct the
road for traffic over the mountains from
Shenandoah to Mahanoy City but, in the
language of the president and other officials

Repu blicans in Pennsylvania Now
Well Equipped for the Skirmish.
Everybody who has followed the
course of the Philadelphia Evening Tel
egraph will appreciate that it is one Of
the fairest and most independent jour
nails published in this state. Probably
there has been no paragraph written
since the campaign opened which better
sizes up the situation in this state than
that in which this influential journal
said:
"Another consideration, and one es-
pecially worthy of note, is the fact that
before the people of the state this year
the Republican party has acquitted it.
self with especial honor. Its nominees
for state offices have a just right to ex-
pect the united support of the party in
this great Republican city, and every
one well knows that unwisdom in the
local conventions would have had a
most depressing effect upon the Repub-
lican prospects in the larger arena. So,
therefore, the action Of the Republican
nominating conventions is such that all
Republicans and all good citizens can
contemplate with entire satisfaction.
In some respects the contest in Penn
sylvania and in Philadelphia this year,
preliminary to the great national battle
of next year, is of exceptional import
ance; and it is, therefore, the part of
political wisdom, no less than because
the public interests demand il, for the
Republican party to acquit itself most
worthily at this time"

The practice Of boys climbing the scaf-

is becoming dangerous for the workmen,

Should the scafoldng become loosened

be disastrous. Complaint is also made by
