successor in Punch" Is Phil May, WIKI is
described as having been hitherto the
clown In that Punch opera bouffe com-
pany of which Du Maurier was the tenor.
Mr.. May may take Du Maurier's place in
a way, but the true successor OF
"Punch's'' lost tenor will be more apt to
be developed by the necessities Of the sit

He has succeeded in placing the Tues

night he will undertake a new scheme,
which is no more nor less than combin-

City Clerk Lavelle yesterday turned

The duplicate has been completed
since the first of the month but pending
the decision in the Hotel Jermyn case,
the city clerk has held it back. so that
the trouble and expense of revising it
might be saved, in case of an adverse
opinion, which as will be seen in another
column was handed down yesterday by
Judge Gunster.
The valuation this year is $50. 1861

City Pastors Think That the Sunday
Sacred Concert Should Be Pro.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Adopted.

A resolution was passed by the Pas
tors union of the city yesterday morn
ing condemning the practice of holding
sacred concerts in parks about the city
on Sunday The resolution was intro
duced by Rev. F. A. Dony week ago,
but action on 1t was deferred until yes
terday when the following were present:
Rev. James Mcleod, D. D.. Rev. Thomas
Bell, Rev. John p. Moffatt, Rev. w. G..
Watkins, Rev. G. l.. Aldrich, Rev. Mr..
Dorsey. Rev. A. B. O'Neill, Rev. w. J..
Ford, Rev. c. A. McGee, Rev. F. A.
Dony, Rev. G. T. Price, Rev. William
Edgar, Rev. John Davy, Rev. H. H.
Harris. Taylor; Rev. Mr.. Levisee,
Clark's Summit. The resolution reads
as follows:
Resolved. That the Pastors union OF
Scranton and vicinity respectfully but de-
cidedly protest against the holding OF con-
certs, sacred or otherwise in Laurel Hill
park, or any other of the parks or the
city, on the Christian Sabbath. believing
the same to he demoralizing rather than
beneficial to the city.
Resolved, That committee of five men,
bers of this body be appointed to wait
upon the officers of the Traction COM
concerts, and endeavor to secure the i'm
mediate discOntinuance of the same.
Rev. Mr.. Dony spoke in defense Of the
resolution. He said that he sent an
agent to Laurel Hill park Sunday who
found the merry -go-round running, ar
ticles being sold on the ground and a
nearby saloon running full blast. These,
he said, are accompaniments Of the
sacred concerts. DR.. Mcleod, in an OBJ
lection to the resolution, said it was
either too broad or too narrow. The
resolution gives ground for criticism of
churches. for at some of them instead of
the preaching of the gospel the service
is sacred concert. The condemning
of the merry -go-round and of the SELL
ing of beer he thought could not be
made too severe. DR.. Mcleod closed by
saying that If the resolution passed, he
desired to be recorded as being opposed
to it. 'rF
The resolution was adopted and Revs
G.. E. Robinson, d. D., William Edgar
w. J. Ford. 4. b. O'NeaI and j. p. Mof-
fatt were appointed a committee to car
ty out the instructions of the resolu-
ton.

in value or total destruction of the prop
erty. 1t Is settled by a long line Of
authorities that the fact that property
has ceased to exist after the assessment
is made is no defense to the tax. AS.
for instance. a tax now assessed and
levied on the Hotel Jermyn cannot be
defeated in whole or in part by showing
that the building was destroyed by are
later in the year.
CAN BE TAXED NEXT YEAR.
mo reason has been suggested why
an exception should be made in this case
to the general rule. The improvements
made by the plaintiff since the begin
ming Of the year are no doubt a part Of
the property assessed. and will in due
time become a legitimate subject of
taxation, but it must not be forgotten
that they were only part of the gener-
al improvements made, and being made
during the year. and which are not and
cannot be taxed before the beginning of
a new tax year.

parties wish formal decree. let coun-
sci prepare and submit the same"

WANTS TO STOP THE SALE.

Spring Brook Water Supply Co. Asks
for an Injunction.
EX-Lieutenant Governor L. A. Watres
and Hon Lemuel Amerman, attorneys
representing the Spring Brook Water
company, began an equity suit yester-
day against County Treasurer C. H..
Schadt, County Commissioners S. w.
Roberts, John Demuth, and Giles Rob-
erts, praying the court to grant an in
junction restraining the defendants
from selling the Jasper Ewing tract in
Lackawanna township for unpaid taxes.
Judge Gunster granted a preliminary
injunction and fixed Saturday next at
0a. m. for the final hearing.
The plaintiff company sets forth in its
bill that it was incorporated on March
2, 1896, and leased the property, rights
and privileges of the Spring Brook
Water Co. for a term of so years. At
the time of the lease and since March 4.
1892 the lessor was owner in fee Of the
Jasper Ewing tract Of land and con-
structed a water dam costing $50, 900 on
this tract.
The tract and dam Is part OF the capt.
tai stock Of the lessee and the state tax
has been paid on the capital stock. but
Notwithstanding this, alleges the plain
tiff, the county commissioners caused
the tract to be assessed during the years
1893 and 1894 for state and county tax.
The tax was not paid, and now the tract
has been advertised at treasurer's sale.
The equity suit prays that the sale may
be stopped and perpetually enjoined. 1t
Is alleged that the commissioners had
no legal right to assess the tract, that
the payment Of state tax by the plaintiff
on its capital stock paid the tax on the
tract. The amount of the tax Is $95.14.
