HANDLEY WILL DISPUTE.
Lcgatee Student Makes Claim for
Extra Allowance.

DR.. d. b. Hand, guardian of George
f. Walden, son of the late DIR. Walden,
yesterday complained to court that
the executors of the estate of the late
Judge Handley are not complying with
the judges behest in the case of the
Walden boy.
He is one of the young people whose
education the judge provided for in his
famous will. He was to be prepared at
the School of the LaCkaWanna and then
sent to some university to study law
or medicine as suited his choice. The
executors pay his tuition and are will
ing to continue paying it, but refuse
to be responsible for anything further
The complainant alleges that Judge
Handley intended and specified that in
addition to the tuition tAe legatee
should receive a reasonable allowance
for board, clothing, laundry and such
sundry expenses as are incidental anG
peculiar to student life.
Court gave the respondents ten days
in which TO file an answer. Ward & Horn
are attorneys for the petitioners.

pied a warm place in the hearts of the
people of MOSCOW, an ovation which he
himself said repaid him for the little
sacrifices" he had made.
Mr. Everett is well advanced i'm years
having been an engineer for nearly half
a centdry, but he is quite as sprightly
and twice as CHEEKY as the average
person twenty years his Junior. He has
Il pleasing address, speaks direct and
to the point and has a prominent fea
ture a happy faculty of telling excellent
and very apt stories.
He took as his subject "The Opportu-
mites of the Hour" contrasting the pres
ent times with the days Of fifty years
ago, telling of the trials and vicissitudes
of an ambitious hey or girl of the
early days and pointing how thankful
the youth of today ought to be for the
many blessings that the advance of
modern civilization affords them.
MADE SOME COMPARISONS.
AS an introduction to this line of
thought he compared this locality as
it appeared to him fifty years ago when
he passed through it in stage coach
bound from Harrisburg to Broume
county. n. v, and the way it presented
with an evidence of unusual power of
observation the changes that time has
wrought and the difference between
the facilities for living and the pursu
ing of happiness.
In his day, he said no boy or girl
except. those of the wealthy classes
could secure the blessings of a good
education such is NouChsafed to any
ana every one now by the free and
open door of schOCl houses on every
hill top end every plain and valley.
"The Mill will Never Grind with the
Water that is Passed" was recited 10y
Mr., Everett as an incentive to his
hearers and particularly the young peo-
pie to take advantage of the opportuni-
ty Of the hour.
Following the entertainment there
was supper served in odd Fellows
hall by the ladies of the Epworth league

SAD DURYEA CASE.
Joseph Cramer, Aged IL, in n Criti-
cal Condition with IlydrOphobia.

From the Pittston Gazette.
News comes from Duryca today of a
very sad case in the family of John
Cramer, a Well known resident of the
back road in that town. Mr.. CramerS
son, Joseph, a boy about II years of
age, is in a very critical condition with
what his attending physcions declare
to he clearly hydrophobia.
About three or four months ago a
mad dog from Avoca visited Duryea
and bit several persons among them
the Cramer boy. No evil results seemed
to follow the incident until this morn
ing at A o'clock, when the boy was
taken violently ill. DR.. a. j. Baker was
called, and he says that the boy had all
the symptoms of hydrophobia, snap
ping and snarling at the people around
him, and being so violent as to make it
impossible to hold him in check. 1t
was necessary at last to use straps to
hold him down, and three men are
present to prevent him from doing
bodily injury to himself.
This afternoon DR.. Stegner. of Rend-
ham, consulted with DR.. Baker in re-
gard to the case. They give no hope
whatever of the boys recovery saying
that he is already in the second stage
of the disease.

the state The board Is represented ex-
ofiicio on the museums board of Off
GERS and has from time to time given
it's APPROVAL of the projects of that new
institution for the advancement of the
export trade. \ communication from
the Museums read last night asked the
adoption of resolution urging legisla
ton from this district to support the
request for the appropriation of $780,
600.
President May relinquished the chair
to Mr.. Keller in order to debate in favor
of the proposition and was supported
by Mr.. Lansing and Mr.. Dickson. The
opposition was voiced by G. II. Zehn-
der, president of the Dickson Manu-
featuring company; Colonel H. NJ.
Boies, Sol Goldsmith, Colonel Hitch
cock and II. E Paine. BY d vote of
10 to 8, President Mays motion that the
resolution be adopted was lost.
WANTS THEM CALLED STREETS.
Mr.. Dickson came forward with ND.

ish the word Court" in distinguishing
alleys from streets and to adopt the
word street" His argument was that

of the Scranton poor district and an al
legged elaborate and usclcssly ornament

houses.
Mr. RiChmond's letter was not ac-
corded a very hearty welcome. After
it had been read by the secretary, a
motion that it be "received' was car
ried without comment.
Colonel Hitchcock, who has for sever
al years been Il delegate to the ma
tional board of trade meetings and
who is a member of the latter body's
finance committee, was directed to at
tend a meeting of that committee called
for the near future at Washington.
The call is for the purpose of petitioning
President Mckinley and congress to

tigate and suggest n money plan, as
|. recommended by the president in his
recent message.

to 81 per pole. II was adopted.
