BOROUGH OF WINTON.
Entered Execution Against Ex-Treasurer
Mack and His Two Sureties for
Alleged Shortage.

An execution was entered against T.
J. Mack, Michael Gallagher and Susan
Mack yesterday by the borough Of
Winton. Mr.. Mack was treasurer of
the borough and the other two were his
sureties. A shortage is alleged in his
accounts and the execution is in the
sum of $1,000 to cover this.
This proceeding became known to the
ex-treasurer of the borough and he i'm
mediately petitioned court for stay
of execution. Mr.. Mack's attorneys
appeared for him and he made the fol-
lowing statements:
When he became treasurer he gave
bonds in the sum Of $4,000. He was
elected to the office. March 2, 1896, and
served faithfully. The sum of SS,024,
together with about $3.50 excess which
came out OF his own pocket. was paid
over as the receipts for the fiscal year
Though having sought an examination
of bis books by the borough auditors
several times. no such audit had oc-
Cured. Therefore, no such execution
can be issued, as he has paid over
all moneys.
He alleges that the probable reason
of the execution is that owing to fac
tional disputes in the Winton council
last March at the time Of organization
he was elected treasurer by one fac
| tion. The other faction, led by James
| Reil, opposed him, and owing to this
| difficulty the execution is probably
brought. He then prayed to be allowed
| to enter q defense.
The petition was heard by Judge
| Gunster and he granted rule to show
cause why Judgment should not be
opened and the defendant allowed to
enter a defense. The proceedings are
stayed meanwhile and the rule made
returnable sec. leg.

for the Session to Be Held
in Wilkes. Barre.

On Thursday a meeting of the COM
mittee of arrangements for the ses-
sion Of the Grand lodge, Independent
Order of Odd Fellows, to be held in
Willles-Barre, next May, was held at
Wilkes-Barre. This committee consid-
cred the preliminaries and District
Deputy I. B. Luce, of Wyoming lodge,
No. 49, was chosen chairman and given
the privilege of appointing chairmen
for sub committees.
Some discussion took place in refer
ence to the seventy-fifth anniversary of
Odd Fellowship in Pennsylvania.
General Edward c. Deans, Of this
city, was present and offered several
practical suggestions regarding the
plans. The committee adjourned to
meet again August II, and it is expect
ed that the final arrangements will
then be completed.
At recent meeting of the Depart
n,ent council, Patriarch Militant, 1t was
unanimously decided to have all the
regiments of the state present at
Wilkes Barre during the Grand lodge
session thus insuring a large number
of the uniformed rank in the parade,
1t is expected that at least 10000 Odd
Fellows will be present at the session
next May.

JOHN T. WATKINS NIGHT.
Scranton's Famous Baritone to BE
Welcomed Home This Evening.

WCICOWtu tIOUt "fo
The friends of John T. watkins, the
singer, who has been studying in Lon
don during the past year, will welcome
him home at $50 o'clock this evening.
Headed by Bauer 8 band and the Scran-
ton Lodge of Elks, of which Mr.. Wat
kins is a member and also a promi-
nent soloist of their duartette, they
will assemble at the Delaware, Laoka-
wanna and Western depot and make
him feel that his homecoming is their
joy as we'll as his own.
He brings home with him new laurels
and prizes, and his voice is wonder
fully improved during the short time
he has been away. He sailed from
Southampton last Saturday and ar
rives in New York this morning. The
assemblage will form in line and pro-
ceed to the Elks' rooms on Franklin
avenue, where an informal reception
will be rendered Mr.. Watkins.
If one wants to observe the Scran-
ton singers popularity in this city and
valley, an evidence of such will be fur
nished at the Lackawanna station to-
night. 1t will resemble the triumphant
march of the Choral Union on their
return from Chicago in '93.
