LOCAL INDUSTRIAL NOTES.

The repairs at the Green Ridge Glass
works begun early in July are nearing
completion.
This has been good summer for me-
chanics who are identified with the build
ing trade, and it anticipated that the COM
ing winter will be the briskest in building
circles Of any for years.
Labor Day, Saturday, Sept l, will be
observed with big demonstration at
Mountain park. General Coxey, late
commander -in.chief Of the army of the
commonweal, is expected to deliver an
address.
The collieries of the Greenwood Coal
company have not averaged total of five
shifts so far this month, the poorest time
made in the history of the works. Superin.
tendent Lowering, however, states that in
his opinion the coal trade cannot continue
to keep so dull.
The rumor that the Lehigh Valley Rail-
road company speaks OF extending its road
from Avoca to the West Side of the city,
taking in the towns of Duryea, Moosic,
Old Forge and Taylor, is every now and
then revived by the presence of surveyors
In the vicinity of Taylor. A recent rumor
made the people of that town believe that

through it, when the reality was that the
clVll engineers were merely re-adjusting
the lines Of n few tracts of farm land.
The output of steel rails per week at
the South works Of the Lackawanna Iron
and Steel company keeps on increasing by
small margins. The total amount OF fin
ished rails for the week ended Aug. 1S was
o, I2S tons and IL cwt. The record of the
previous week fell but few tons short of
TINS, the scales showing a total of s, 706
tons, 10 cwt. Of rails. For the week end
ing tomorrow night the management does
not anticipate any record breaking ON ac-
count OF the run Of hard luck that has pur-
sued the mill during the week. But it
VIII be the aim Of the management and
employees to strive and in the near future
produce record for one weeks work that
will top 1000 tons.

FRAUDS WHO SEEK RELlsE.

Aasooiatad Charities

They Should Be Sent to the Agsn. of the
Associated Charities.
The following communication has
been given to the press of the city for
the benefit of the public by the Board
of Associated Charities:
SCRANTON, Pa. Aug. 29, 1894.
To the Public.
In our Investigations we find that there
are at present in the city a number of per-
sons who are making an easy living by
imposing on the charitable public.
They have many pleas, all calculated to
excite sympathy and disarm suspicion.
They are not ordinary tramps altogether
some are young men trying to raise
means to help them through college" "
some ''sick persons recently discharged
from hospitals" some "victims of acci-
dents wanting to get to friends in other
places, with many other stories Of the
same kind.
In nearly all cases they are frauds, and
In some cases thieves, and it would be
better that none should be aided before
their cases have been investigated. We
would suggest that instead Of feeding
them or giving them clothing or shoes,
that they be sent to our agent in the Mu-
nicipal building, who will see that they
are assisted if found worthy.

John I. Blair Celebrated His Ninety
Second Birthday Wednesday.
John l. Blair, the New Jersey multi
millionaire, who is we'll known in this
city, celebrated his ninety second birth
day at his home in Blairstown on We'd
nesday. There was no formal function
of any kind, as Mr.. Blair's physicians
have forbidden anything calculated to
excite him. Several friends called to
offer congratulations and the old gen
:lemau laughed and joked with them.
Since May /, when Mr.. Blair was
first confined to his house by illness, he
has been compelled to refrain from his
trips to New York and elsewhere. His
only exercise has been a daily walk on
the large porch Of his old home, "Blair
hill, which overlooks BIairstown, and
commands fine view of the Paulins
Kill valley. Mr., Blair's physicians say
that with care he may live to celebrate
several more anniversaries of his birth.

Albert Mckinney, whose inhuman
treatment Of Aliens horses was told in
the GLOBE yesterday morning. was arr
rested n arraiRned under a state war
rant charging him with obtaining prop
erty under false pretenses. AS nearly
all of the witnesses will have tt be sum-
moned from Mortified. the case was
continued until next week. Bail was
fixed in the sum of $500, and in default
of it Mckinney was committed to the
county jail. '@ sAai :.
In connection with the case some adj
ditiohal information was secured last
evening from Mr.. Morrison, which in
justice to that gentleman should be pub
iished. Mr.. Morrison states THAT he
purchased the business of. McCabe &
Co. a short time ago. On last Sunday
Mckinney came to him aud invited him
to take a drive to Northfeld. Having
nothing else to do he consented. AMI
thus became an innocent participant of
the affair. While on the road to North
field he repeatedly took the lines from
the hands of Mckinney. who seemed to
be well under the influence of liquor.
The latter, however, who is physically
a much stronger man. persisted in TAX
ing them back. and at each recurrence
used the whip un1nercifuiiy. When
they arrived at Mortified MIR. Morri-
son notified the liyery4nan at that place
not to let Mckinney have the team, it
being bis intention to notify the owners
of their condition. But Mckinney OBJ
tanned the outfit while Mi. Morrison

his condemnation OF the affair, and eX-
pressed little sympathy with the Offend
er when Informed by a GLOBE reporter
that he had .Seen committed to Jail.
