Order Made by Judge Archibald for Two
Weeks of Criminal Court Beginning
Dec. 2A.
Judge Archibald made an order yes
terday directing that a special term Of
criminal court be held, beginning Dec.
"a and continuing for two weeks. This
special term will give District Attorney
Kelly an opportunity to clear up the
calendar before he retires from office
in January. 1t Is not likely that Mr.
Kelly will succeed in clearing the calen-
der to date, for the criminal trial list
for the past two years has been un-
usually large, but the special term will
enable him to dispose of the cases that
have been on the list for several terms
and allow the new district attorney,
John r. Jones, to enter on the duties of
his office with the business connected
Herewith well in hand. The order
made by Judge Archibald is as follows:
Now, Nov. l5 1894, the public business
requiring it, 1t Is ordered, that an ad-
journed or special session of the court of

ment he was subject to last Saturday

proves that acts of lawlessness are not
altogether confined to the region sur
rounding Scranton
Mr. Hall says that about 1890 o'clock
Saturday night his home was broken
into and himself and wife dragged out
of bed and brutally assaulted. He was
awakened by hearing a noise, but before
he had time to investigate the cause
he received heavy blow on the fore
head with a black jack" His wife
was struck over the eye with steel
knuckles and tainted
Although dazed Mr.. Hall pursued his
| assailants into the street and threw
one of them down. Another blow from
the "black jack" rendered him helpless.
There were three men in the party. but
he was unable to identify any of them.
Nothing was taken from the house, and
he does not believe the object of his
brutal visitors was burglary.
Mr.. and Mrs Hall still bear strong
evidence Of the rough treatment they
received.

ances of the Season.
Manager Davis has at present one of
the successes of the season at his popu-
lar house. "A Social Session." as per-
formed by Miss Kate Sprague's comedl-
ans, will draw crowded houses. Vari-
Gus scenes and oddities are introduced,
which are a source of continual merri-
ment, and the vocal music is of very
superior nature.
Miss Kate Sprague has a pleasing
and refined voice and renders her songs
in a charming manner. ]. Francis
Morgan is also a singer of great merit,
and was heartily applauded. The bur-
lesque quartette were awarded n
double encore, to which they responded,
and entertained their audience in n
most humorous style. Miss Lisetta FL
lani, as the Juvenile Daisy, is a good
actress and deserved the applause
which was bestowed upon her yester-
day. The entire company and the Sc
lections rendered are to be highly COM
mended.

HOLT makes HIS. escape
The Would-Be Negro Murderer of
Hamp Anderson Still Uncaught.
ANDERSON IN DYING CONDITION
DO Not Hold Out Much Hope of His
Recoverable May Live
Week, They Say.

William Holt, the colored would-be
murderer, Is still at large, but the
police are covering all possible chances
of his escape. The belief that he left
the city Immediately after the shooting
is offset by the statements that he was
seen at 8 o'clock yesterday morning on
Scranton street.
His description as the police have it
is as follows: He Is feet inches tall,
and weighs 1856 pounds. His complex
ion is very dark, and, excepting scar
on his left cheek, he is an ordinary look
ing colored man, and has slight mus
tache. He wore gray and black
striped cap.
The victim, William, or "Hamp." An
derson, lies in a pivotal condition at
the Lackawanna hospital. He was
shot three times. The wound that his
death is liable to result from is near the
base of the heart.
! At late hour last night DR.. Rudasill,
of the hospital, said that the chances
are against Andersons recovery. Each
day that he lives, SO much stronger does
his likelihood of ultimate recovery be-
come.
Wife Not Seriously Shot.
The woman who was shot and Is
credited with being Hollis wife gave
her name to the hospital authorities,
where she was taken yesterday, as
Rebecca Ann Mitchell She is suffering
from bullet wound in the thigh, just
above the knee, and will be out in a
week.
1t is thought that Holt had murder in
his heart His wife had been separated
from him and she was living with the
family of pink" Capney at 1882 Wyo-
ming avenue. Holt arrived in town
from Forest City and went to Capney's
house about $50 in the evening. Ile
appeared to be in straltened circum-
stances and was Hospitality invited to
stay for the night.
Was Bent on killing.
| A little after Holt went upstairs Mrs.
Capney heard loud talk. Holt was ar
guing with his wife and asking her to
live with him again. She refused and
he drew a revolver, firing two shots at
her One of them missed her and the
other took effect in her leg. She crept
under the bed and Holt discontinued
firing. He forced her to tell where An
derson slept, as he alleged that Ander-
son had improper relations with her.
Anderson slept in room across the
hallway and Holt burst in the door. He
fired two shots at Anderson and then
made a dash out Of the house, going
down the stairs and through the
Kitchen to the back yard Anderson
after being shot, jumped out of his win
dow fifteen feet to the yard. Holt
reached the yard about the same time
and came face to face with Anderson.
He fired the last shot in the revolver at
him and Anderson fell, shot through
the breast.
Holt then made his escape and is still
at large.
