SUPERBA AT THE FROTHINGHAM.
Hanlon BrOs.' Greatest Spectacle
Seen There Last Night.

Hanlon Brothers have in years gone
by brought some beautiful spectacles
to this city. but In their new "Su-
perba" last night at the Frothingham
they quite surpassed what they have
done in the past to entertain the pub
lie. 1t was a marvel of cleverness,
and even the blase Individual who had
seen that sort of thing over and over
again, stopped yawning after the first
act, declared he was surprised and
thereafter gave his undivided atten-
tiOn to the stage.
It's no use trying to describe "Su-
perba." 1t must be seen. There is
a wilderness of scenery and the me-
chanical effects are so perfect and
work so cleverly that one Is tempted
to think that the inanimate things that
move about in such mysterious ways
are endowed with life. At the close
of the second act "Superba" rides down
to the foot lights in her fairy vessel
on a sea of roses" as the house bills
expresses 1t. This scene is one Of the
most beautiful every presented on a
stage in this city by any such attrac-
tion.
Besides the scenery and mechanical
effects there are several very fetching
ballets. living pictures of a bull fight
and sDecialties by Miss Francis Hart
ley. who Is also seen in the role of
"Superba:" the Schrode Brothers, won =.
derful acrobats; Blanche Seymour and
Lowry Lambert.
''Superba" will be repeated tonight.

HORSE THIEF ARRESTED.
He Drove the Animal from Binghamt0n
TO This City...Wanted to Part
with the Outfit for SIS.

About Q o'clock last night smooth
faced. well dressed young man, % years
old or thereabouts, walked into the Of
flee of the Scranton Parcel Delivery
company, at Lackawanna and Wyom-
ing avenues, and desired information
from the manager, II. V. O'Malley.
about whether or not there was an
auction sale of horses in this city every
Thursday. He said he had horse he
wanted to sell cheap.
Mr.. O'Malley told him that the horse
auctioneer Is out of town this week.
and when he learned that he wanted to
sell the horse the worst way to Mr.
O'Malley. He was so persistent that
he got Mr.. O'Malley to go to Riley Ed
wards stable to look at the animal.
The beast was in lather of sweat
and had evidently been driven a long
distance. 1t looked to be u good horse,
a well shaped sorrel. and the carriage
was a good one. So was the harness.
The carriage has a rubber top and mad
red running gear.
He offered to sell the entire outfit for
$50 and reduced his price to SIS. The
reason he was willing to part with such
valuable property for tritle he ex-
planned by representing that he went
about FROM place to place selling car
riage oil and was in the habit of selling
his horse every fall. He had not had
successful season and was very
anxious to get enough to bring him
back home to Boston.
Mr.. O'Malley told him to be around
to the office In the morning, and he left
him to get policeman. The first off,
Ger he met was Patrolman Iona Day.
and they walked on a block and met
Lieutenant John Davis. When the
three went back to the stable, the
young man was seated outside on the
steps and he was placed under arrest
He Is now In the central police sta
tion. In the buggy was found a bag
marked Binghamton, and when the Off
GERS charged him with the theft, he
broke down and acknowledged 1t. but
refused to give his name. saying that II
he was going to suffer his folks would
be none the wiser and he would not
have them share his disgrace.
He admitted that he hired the outfit
at a livery near the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna and Western station in Bing-
hamton yesterday morning and drove
to this city, making only enough stops
to feed the horse so that 1t could make
the journey.

SPROATS CASE UNSETTLED.
Fire Department Committee Again
Fails to Reach n Conclusion.

Permanent Fireman Sproats. late of
the Franklin company, who has been
suspended by Mayor Bailey. will con-
tinue to draw pay indefinitely from
the city If last nights secret meeting
of the fire department committee of
select council Is any criterion. The
committee intended considering the
Sproats case along with other business,
but did nothing beyond discussing the
matter.
1t was claimed by the committee that
the mayor was to have presented in
writing the specific charges which led
to the suspension and the mayors rec
ommenda ton that he be dismissed
The charges were not presented either
in writing or verbally. and 1t is not
likely that the report of the commit
tee to councils tonight will contain any
reference to the matter.

Restoration Of Confidence Gives
Scranton Another Industry.

cCiuutou .huotutl iuuUStrys
On Dec. 10 an application will be made
to Governor Hastings for a charter for
the Scranton Foundry and Machine
company. Those who are asking for
the charter are Eugene Washer, Amos
Washer, E. w. Bishop, Daniel Elsinger
and Theodore V. Konecny.
This industry, and it is practically a
new one, is due to the result of the re-
cent election.
For some time Eugene Washer has
run small foundry near the Carter
works at the northern city line. He
was desirous of enlarging II and en-
gaging in the business more extensive
ly. but feared to do so until the result
of the election of Nov. 3 was made
known. Immediately thereafter q
company with the above named stock
holders was organized. and on Dec. 10
the governor will be asked to charter it.
The old AK factory on Green Ridge
street has been leased, and the busi-
ness Of the company will be carried on
there.
