cURIoslTIes FROM FLORIDA.
Splendid collscion That Is Owned by
Mr. Fuller, Jr.

Splendid Coll5o,i,n That Is Owned by
Mr.. Fuller, Jr.
Mr. Fuller, jr., who is on his vaca-
tion from Floridu, has brought n mis-
celaneous collection of wonders which
are attracting considerable attention.
There are three alligators few months
old. which, although but twelve inches
long, must be kept at the proverbial
arms length. They are fed upon raw
meat aud seem TO take kindly to their
new abode. Mr.. Fuller is responsi BILE
for the existence. 30 to speak, of two Of
these gentry, having procured three
eggs Of alligators. two Of which he
placed in the sands. and his efforts
were repaid in the 'crespers" he has
now on view The other egg Mr.. Full
ler preserved and has with him.
He has also a trophy Of his skill in
the skin of a diamond rattlesnake. one
of the most poisonous in Florida. The
snake was over seven feet long and was
killed by Mr.. Fuller. The skin of a
wild cat and skeleton OF the jaw Of an
alligator are also mmong his collec-
tions, but probably the most interest
ing is the pottery which Mr.. Fuller
discovered in the temple of the mound
builders of Okeehumkee. The relics
must be over 400 years old and the ac.
cepted supposition is that they were the
work of partially civilized races before
the invasion Of that part of the coun-
try by the Indians. A splendid native
worked orange stick is in The collection.
1t is intended for Mr. Fuller, sr. Many
hundreds have seen the collection,
which is exciting considerable interest.

ASPHALT WILL Be USED.

General Manager Beetsm Has Given
Directions 10 That Effect.
The misunderstanding which ex-
isted between Street Commissioner
kirst and the Scranton Traction COM
pany in reference to the manner Of
paving the strip Of street lying outside
the car tracks on LackRwanna avenue,
has been adjusted and the space will
be covered with asphalt at once.
Since last Friday when the street
commissioner stopped tue workmen
from filling the outside space with vi
trihed brick, the trench has remained
open aud been constant menace to
vehicles and people crossing the street.
A settlement of tho matter WAS de-
layed by General Manager Beetem's
absence from the city. Mr. Beetem eX-
planned that the trouble was oocasionej
by misinterpretation to pave with
brick when he had instructed before his
departure that asphalt be used.
The position assumed by Street Com
missioner Kirst was that if the space
were filled with brick without con
crete base, curb or other provision to
guard against the access OF water run
ming beneath the asphalt pave the pay
ing would be ruined

thing About the Iatricaoies of Law.
The sharper giving his name as Cur
tbs. who is detained at the station house
awaiting rsquisition papers to take him
back to Utica to answer for stealing
bicycles, is growing weary OF his con-
finemsnt and will make an effort to be
released on a writ Of habeas corpus.
He says that unless the requisitiou
papers come by Friday they cannot be
secured for some weeks, as Governor
Pattison leaves today on an extended
tour of the great lakes and they must,
of course, be endorsed by him before
they become operative
He believes that it he applies for a
writ of habeas corpus the court will
compel the police department to fix a
day by which the reQusition papers
must be served to prevent the granting
of the writ. He claims that in South
Carolina eleven days and twenty-thrce
hours ia the time allowed by law and
that in many other states a certain time
is fixed. He also went back to tho tine
of King John and the Magma Ch" ia
and descAuted at length on old English
law and the rights of citizens, etc. =,
showing that ne has had considerable
dealing with the law in some shape or
form.
