Mr.. HARRIS, DETECTIVE.
He Made II Extremely Unpleasant for a
Pickpocket He Caught Plying His
Trade at the Circus.

There are two men who will not for
get the circus for some time. One of
them is David Harris, of North Gar
field avenue, and the other a pick
pocket. While Mr.. Harris was taking
in the sights of the side show young
woman touched him up.p the shoulder
and told him that man had twice at
tempted to pull her skirt loose and
as he (Mr. Harris) was the only one
she knew near her would he please
watch the man."
Harris told her to step back 70 the
place she had vacated and he would
watch the fellow Carefully stealing
up behind the rascal, he caught him
Just in the act of committing a third
attempt Selling his fellow with his
left hand by the collar and straighten-
ing him UP, Harris plunged his right
hand into his face. Then followed a
football scene in which the pickpocket
was ball and the bystanders were
players. In attempting to get away the
football ran against Harris again and
in striking him an upper cut, Harris
broke the knuckle bone and the meta
carpal bones of the little and third fin
gers. ..rr.
The pickpocket was seen again in
the evening asking Patrolman Saul
on the west side for place to sleep
He was offered a cell and cot, but die
not seem to want that as he ran OF
down Jackson street and was last
seen going up Lackawanna avenue
without coat or hat.
In the excitement of the scrimmage
no one thought of handing the fellow
over to an officer but his injuries were
enough to be a reminder of his Scran
ton visit. They consisted of gasl
over the right eye, both eyes black
chin cut, lip split and several othe
minor injuries.

SERMON OF REV. JAMES HUGHES.
He Filled the Pulpit of the First
Welsh Baptist Church.

Rev. James Hughes, the South At
rican missionary, who is visiting his
brother, John r. Hughes, occupied the
pulpit of the First Welsh Baptist
church yesterday. He took his text
for the morning sermon from Mark i'll
"The beginning of the Gospel of the
Son of God" During his discourse
he said in part:
Most of you, i presume, know that the
word gospel means good news. Every
man with a heart will say it is good, the
best he has experienced in this world,
he never experienced any so inspiring,
enobling and elevating as the gospel.
Every man with a heart win say 1t Is
new, every man with an understanding
mind will say it is new-the newest thing
in life. There is in our day a craving
for novelty, a moroid tendency for new
things. We have in the Bible a. perennial
newness. The gospel is the first and the
last of its kind. The gospel is divided
into sections, Mathew, Mark, Luke and
John. We speak of all these sections as
the Gospel. Each section has special char
acteristiCs. Mathew is the gospel of the
King 1t is regal from first to last.
