TOMMY'S WELCOME HOME.
A Wandering Husband Upon Return TO

Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Forest City, June H.-Five years ago
Thomas Jones and his wife, Mary Ann,
were apparently living in conjugal hap
plness in this borough. together with
family OF several small children,
when suddenly Tommy" disappeared.
His anxious spouse watched vainly for
his return until hope fed, love departed
and she earnestly desired and believed
that she would never see him again.
DutI she did, for on Wednesday last
Thomas Jones bobbed up as serene and
smiling as If he had just been out for
an hour or two with "the boys" and
proposed to his erStwhile better half
that he should again resume his place
in the bosom of his family. Mrs. Jones
9emurred, Thomas insisted, and finally
to decide the question properly the
neglected wife went to a justice of the
peace office and swore out warrant
for 'T'ommy's" arrest on the ground
OF desertion.
The constable and justice interviewed
the wanderer, with the result that he
was held in $500 bail to answer the
charge, and as no one could be found
to go security for him he was placed
in the borough lookup, preparatory to
being taken to Montrose.
The effects of seclusion in the "don-
jon" cooled "Tommys" ambition to be
reunited to his family. and he begged
to be released and promised that he
would leave for "foring' parts and
never more bother his wife or children
On these conditions Thomas was re-
leased. and the last seen of him he had
struck six-day-go-as-you-please-gai gait
to the southwark.

CORNELL WINS EASILY,
University of Pennsylvania Is Just Eight
Boat Lengths Behind in the Freshmen
Races.

University Of Pennsylvania Is Just Eight
Boat Lengths Behind in the Freshmen
Races.
Ithaca, N. Y, June 14.-Once again
is the blue and red of the University of
Pennsylvania trailing under the red
and white of Cornell, for in the boat
race between the freshmen crews of
the two universities today Cornell won
easily by eight lengths in II minutes,
Is 3-5 seconds.
The excitement before the race was
intense, because 1t was believed that
the contest would be close.
Pennsylvania had the inside course,
but there was not much choice in this,
as the water was perfectly calm. Penn
sylvania started with their long grace
full sweep at thirty-six strokes to the
minute, while Cornell started with the
rapid and telling Courtney stroke of
forty-four. For a while the boats were
pulling together nicely, but gradually
Cornell began to pull away inch by
inch. Then Pennsylvania went to
pieces. Lister, at No. 2, Caught a
crab" and falling back into the boat
the whole swing Of the boat was upset,
and 1t was few seconds before Penn
sylvania gathered themselves together
again. When they did 50, 1t was only
to go through just such another exhibi-
tion again, to he repeated third time
little further on. 1t was all done by
Lister at No. 2. Pennsylvania tried
desperately to make the defeat as short
distance as possible. Just before
they were to cross the line, No. again
"caught crab" and went on his back
and stayed. This so startled No. that
he ceased to pull, and the Pennsylvania
boys went over the line with only six
men pulling at the oars-in II minutes,
AZ seconds-Just eight boat lengths be-
hind Cornell. The distance was two
miles.
