Property.

.afE.tNF
AN attempt was made this morning by the
Cansoddatedt Traction Company to plant a
pole at Foye place and Montgomery street
in front of John Daley's property. Mr..
Daleyaswo5re that he would dig up the pole
and throw it in the street. After a hot argu-
ment the men filed up the hole and disap-
peared.d q
Mr., Daley is the owner of that triangular
piece of property bounded by Bergen av-
enue. Montgomery street and Foye place.
This property has been encroached upon by
the company for some time. They nave
planted several poles around it, and Mr..
Daley is determined they shall plant no
more. Not long ago they left two empty
cars standing near the curbstone, blocking
traffic and damaging the property. Mr..
Daley says he paid $500 for the paving of
the street, and he thinks he has something to
say about it, He lives at No, 755 Montgom-
cry street, where the company nave planted
a pole also. He is thoroughly determined
that they shall plant no more poles on his
properly, and if they attempt it he viii dig
them up.

GOOD ENTERTAINMENT.

"The Old District School" a most interest
ing sketch, will be given tomorrow evening
in the Claremont Presbyterian Church by
that most versatile of artists, Miss Adele
Weber. Not only will there be this piece OF
dramatism, but there will be music from
such able artists as Mrs. j. H. Gilmore, Mrs.
F. Fl. Molten. Mrs. William j.. Machin. with
Mr.. Louis r. Dressler as accompanist.
Surely such an array.of talent ought to draw
a large audience, even forgetting that the
proceeds derived from the sale of tickets are
to be devoted to the renovation OF the
church.

JUDGE BRADLEY has decided that
women cannot vote in this State,
even upon local questions. 1t is very
well that they cannot. Very few OF
them understand public affairs suffi-
GENTLY to be useful voters. and those
who can are to be deplored as mis-
takes of Providence rather than en-
couraged as standards of womanhooo.

SOME wiseacre has discovered that
the marriage license law of Duke
BillyThompson is faulty, and trumpets
the tidings TO the State. OF course II
is faulty, it is one huge mistake; but
the flaw found in it by the wiseacre is
only comical. The first section for
bids persons residing in other States
from being joined in marriage, or
entering into a contract therefor,
until after they shall have procured a
license from the clerk of the county IN
which the marriage is to take place.
This, it is commended by some OF the
ministers, will prevent foreign lovers
from popping the question to New
Jersey sweethearts. The asking and
consenting to a marriage by the
young couple is, they assert, the only
marriage contract known to the New
Jersey law.
N%onsensel This is making a con-
tract of marriage and a contract to
marry n and the same thing. There
are about a thousand decisions, especi-
ally in States where the so-called
common law marriages" hold good.
carefully differentiating the two. A
contract of marriage-which IS the
thing referred to in the Thompson
BILLS as it were an ordinary trans
action in goods for present delivery:
a contract to marry is a sort of specu-
lative deal in futures-a combination
of put and call as it were, in the
language of Wall street.
The whole bill is idiotic and vicious
because it tends to develop immor-
atty, while it only checks folly. 1t
is probably unconstitutional besides.
But the point raised against 1t, as
stated above, is as foolish as the bill
itself.

TUNNEL Oh A VIADUCT.

That Is the Only Way Delaware and Hud'
son Company VIII Consent TO Traction
Company Passing Its Tracks at Moosie
The Scranton and Pittston Traction
company has an obstacle in its path
down the valley that sizes up to mat
ter that the courts will be called upon
to decide. The company is building
line of electric road to Pittston, and
along the route the trolley road will
have to cross the main tracks of the
Delaware and Hudson Canal company.
The electric road is now built to the
Luzerne county line, the poles and
wires are put up and the road is ready
for passage except that two crossings
are not put in, one at the Moosic depot
and the other half mile further down
the road at Stark's Patch.
Delaware and Hudson Object.
These crossings would be in place
now IL the Delaware and Hudson Of
ficals were willing to allaow it, but
they are not, and there comes the trou-
ble Mr.. Amerman. president of the
Traction company, is out OF town and
could not be seen. General Manager j.
r. Beetem, of the Scranton Traction
company, was interviewed and he stat
ed that his company has nothing to do
with the corporation building the road
other than as lessees of the road Whenit
is constructed. He drove over the road
yesterday afternoon and expects to run
a car for a trial trip today If the cross
ings are In.
Superintendent c. r. Manville, of the
TNaln In q ClK w
the difficulty amounted to. What he
said Is of special consequence and will
seriously interfere with the extension
of the road. He said that the railroad
company was not willing to grant the
Traction company the privilege of
crossing their tracks at grade, and no
permission would be given until the
electric company consents to tunnel
the crossing or build viaduct. One
of these propositions must be complied
with The courts may, If the matter is
carried there, rule that the railroad
company cannot exact that much from
the electric company but If such rul-
ing is made, the Delaware and Hudson
officials shall be willing to live up to it.
Reasons for Attitude.
Mr.. Manville gave the following rea-
sons for opposing grade crossings:
There is too much danger in this age of
activity to passengers on both the rail-
road trains and the street cars. Public
opinion has long ago condemned grade
crossings and the frequent causalties
that happen would not occur If via
ducts were employed to cross tracks,
1t is not alone at crossings where a
street car track intersects steam rail-
road track, but the danger is even
greater where two steam railroads
cross each other.
Mr. Manville was asked If the COM
pany would accept nothing less than
either a viaduct or tunnel, and he
said positively that such is the alterna-
tive.
From the position Of the Delaware
and Hudson it appears as IL the open,
ing of the Greenwood extension is a
fact that the dim, distant future will be
called upon to deal with. Mr.. Man
vile said that the question Of competi.
tion did not enter into the case at all.
The question of safety to the travelling
public, he. asserts, Is paramount to
pecuniary consideration.
