news OF THE south Side
James Richardson, Who Left Here
Two Years Ago, Is Dead.
WAS KILLED ON THE RAILROAD
His Name Was Familiar to Almost Every
Person on the South Side Third Ami.
ycrsary of the Young Woman's
Christian Association.

James Richardson, who, to almost
every person of the lower end of the
South Side, was known as Morris
Ridge, met his death in an untimely
manner on Dec. q last, by being run
down and killed on the railroad at q
small town i'm the central part of ONO
1t is about two years ago since he left
these parts, and nothing was heard of
him during that time until word was
received by his brother, Thomas Rich
ardson, of Pittston avenue, a few weeks
ago, that man having letters in his
pocket addressed to James Richmond
and postmarked Scranton, was killed
while trackwalking.
Mr.. Richardson sent on description
of his brother and also gave particulars
about certain peculiar tattoo marks
and the scar of a large wound which he
bore upon his body. The remains were
eXhumed and it was found that the
marks were upon the body. The news
was sent back and that convinced Mi.
Richardson that the dead man was his
brother. He received the sad intelli-
gence q few days ago. The dead man
was we'll known and, although he was
of a gruff manner, he possessed kind
and well-disposed manner. He was a
son-in-law of Patrick Corcoran, of
Cedar avenue.

The Weary Willics Fled.

The tool house along the narrow
gauge track in the rear of the Barber
Asphalt plant, on South Washington
avenue, was burned down last night.
1t is called a tool house, but in reality
it is only shUnty for the convenience
of the old men who work at the sand
pit. 1t was owned by the Lackawanna
Iron and Steel company.
There was large cast iron stove in
side that would hold ton of coal. Two
tramps intended to camp there aast
night and they set the fire ablazing;
then both went to sleep and, it is be-
lieved, that both must have been almost
smothered; because the shanty caught
fire and the flames were creeping upon
the roof when they were seen to emerge
from it's walls. They did not wait to
catch their breath, but scuddled across
the snow, fearing lest they might be
held responsible for the destruction of
the shanty. The loss amounts to about

that announcement.
Now James Judge, of the South Side,
comes forward and states that he will
fight Mr.. Carroll at the weights men,
toned. providing the latter can prove

and for purse that will be worth fight
ing for. In other words Mr.. Judge Is

To Make Cut Glass Sparkle.

To keep cut glass always in n state of
sparkling beauty requires time and care.
1t should be washed in warm soapsuds
and then rinsed in hot, but not boiling,
water. Let 1t stand in a pan of dry saw
dust until dry, then brush with a soft
brush and rub with a piece of chamois
and the result will be well worth the

THOSE FROZEN HYDRANTS.
Mayor Conncll Makes Some Suggestions
to District Chief.

District Fire Chief Surdam yesterday
conferred with Mayor Connell relative
to the immediate attention to frozen
fire hydrants in various sections of the
city. Yesterdays Tribune indicated the
useless state of many hydrants and the
possible serious consequences of u fire.
1t is the opinion of the fire officials
that it Is eXpedient to steam out only
such hydrants as are known to be
frozen. 1t is claimed that if hydrant
in good condition is opened in severe
weather it will freeze within few
hours after being closed.
