City Treasurer Brooks AcQuiesces in the
Request of Councils.
City Treasurer Brooks has acquiesced
in the request Of councils for an extern
sion of time for the payment of city
and school axes. 1t Is not without
some hesitation that Mr.. Brooks has
agreed to his. :
Although by law September is fixed
as the latest date on which taxes can be
paid without penalty councils each year

benefit. He gathers his money together
as best he can and as a rule pays the
taxes as soon as he can In order to have
the burden off his mind.
The corporations, with big landed in
terests and private individuals of ex-
tensive means, are the ones who are
benefited by the city's charity.
The treasurer's office during the last
few days has been visited by scores Of
these people who, instead of paying their
taxes. which are already two months
overdue, inquire II the treasurer intends
to honor councils request for an extern
sion of time and finding that he Ices

months interest.
The big corporations have not yet
paid their taxes. few Of the smaller mes

which nearly all the wealthy men have
property interests, has not paid as
much tax so far this year as some of
the outlying wards whose contributions
come in $40 and $50 Jumps.

Ono Of the Sad CONSCIOUSNESS of q Neces.
.-. sary Evil.

Ono OF inc qua consequences OF q NeccSe
sary Evil.
One of the bad features of the law Is
that which Omits to provide some other
mea than Imprisonment for witnesses
who cannot furnish bail for their APP
p%earance when wanted. In this county
the consequences have been particu-
larry regrettable in many cases, especi-
ally in the Italian and Polish murder
trials in which a number of witnesses
have been locked up to await a final
disposition of he case, which means
for some of the witnesses an imprisOn-
ment for nearly a ear simply because
they were unfortunate enough to be
chance witnesses of the crime.
Yesterday a sad example of the conse-
quences Of this necessary evil was
brought to light in the office Of the
board Of associated charities, where
Mrs. Angelo Camerto, wife Of a princi-
pal witness in the Paretto murder trial,
came with her two children looking for
ale. The husband has been locked up
for six months and there is no telling
when he will be released, as the sem
tence has not as yet been imposed and
even after that he will have to answer

His wife has been living on the char

SATURDAYS GREAT GAME.
It VIII BE the BE Most Memorable Foot
Ball Game of the Year.

No little interest has been caused by
the announcement in yesterdays Trib-
une that a foot ball team from the
Alumni of the School Of the Lackawan-
ma will play the regular eleven Of the
school Saturday afternoon at h Base
Ball park. The Alumni team will be
made w of such Old-time favorites as
'Porkey' Brooks. Cricket" Gunster,'
"Lankey" Moffatt, "~Sprinter" Murphy,
Handsome Willis" Kirkpatrick,
"Stuff" Hunt. "Car-wheel' Boies,
Magnet Simpson, Banker" Kirk

Decker, Bridge Dickson, Mick"
Stahl, Mort Fuller, Tub" Brooks,
Beet" Hunt and 'Chappy" Blair.
Two or more alumni men have been
provided for each position, and by re-
lieving each other will be able to play
the game out. Black and blue are
their colors. but these shades are not
intended to have any reference to the
marks that will be welted into the own
ers Of the colors. Crimson and white
are the colors of the regular school
team. The statement that a doctor
has been engaged for the game Is made
as a matter Of fact and not in the
spirit of humor.
The school players are confident Of
victory. but this feeling has spurred
the Alumni men to an effort to win at
all hazards. The game has been SO

1T is A MODEL L
Something About Ono Of the Best ia
New York City.

New York City.
Hotels in New York city change
hands frequently. Strange faces, new
management, and new methods seem
to take away from them the comforta-
BILE, home-like atmosphere to which the
traveller has become accustomed. Here
and there, however, there are success
full establishments which continue to
hold their own under the same manage
ment.
The st. Denis is a hotel Of this char
acter, and under the direction of its old
time proprietor, William Taylor, con-
tinues one of the most pleasant and at
tractive hotels In the city. The new
addition which was finished a few
years ago has doubled its capacity. The
beautiful colonial dining room Is an at
tractive feature Of this part Of the
iouse.
1t is located corner of Broadway and
Eleventh street, directly opposite
Grace church, in the center Of the city,
The Broadway cable-cars pass the
door, affording quick transit either up
or down town. For families as well
az business men 1t Is most convenient.
Accommodations are ample for a large
number Of guests. and the service
prompt and 'unobtrusive. Connected
with the hotel is the famous "Taylor's
Restaurant" one of the most popular
rt.sCrts in the metropolis for luncheon
and dinner parties. The menu is most
elaborate. both in American and
French cookery. In season and out Of
season there Is nothing wanting to
tempt or satisfy the most exacting
cpicure or accomplished bon vivant.

G. BEN JOHNsONS IDEA.

Bel.ves That . Big Factory Building. por.
lions Of Which Could Be Rented to
Small Manufactures. wouid De o Good
Thing.
It's a peculiar fact that a novel plan
for increasing the number of Scran-
toms industries Is suggested by q
Wilkes Barre man. c. Ben Johnson
has the idea and expressed 1t during
casual conversation among a party of
friends In the board of trade rooms
yesterday, and. although he is not the
first father Of the thought in its appli-
cation to Scranton, his idea may be
worthy Of consideration.
Mr.. Johnson believes that a transfer
might be made to Scranton of a batch,
or several patches, of small industries,
each employing from five to twenty OF
twenty-five hands, who are now hived
in one building in such large cities as
New York and Philadelphia. There
their power, shafting. light and water
are furnished them at a cost proportion
ate to the space occupied. In the ma
jority Of cases the power for these
nests Of small manufacturers is pro-
cured by the owner Of the building
from some other plant. maybe half a
block distant.
Now, Mr.. johnson wants to know
why Scranton men cannot erect a five
or six story building capable of o n
tanning a dozen or more small indus
trial plants, equip the building with
power, light and shafting and rent the
various apartments or floors at a fig
ure based on 6 or 6 per cent. of the cost
of the thing.
The Wilkes Barrean says the scheme
Is profitable in large cities. but that
Scranton is better equipped for such n
venture on account Of its cheaper fuel,
cheaper light and better facilities for
Offering cheaper living to employees.
Yesterdays discussion did not take
a serious turn, but Mr.. JohnsOn's O n
~versation seemed to receive an affirm
alive reception from those present. 1t
was remarked that a similar plan was
considered among a few Scranton bust
ness men several years ago, but was
abandoned.
