In Ascots London Budget written to

John Jermyn, formerly of this town, and
after whom the place was named:
John Jermyn, of Scranton. accompan-
led by his interesting family, sailed on
Saturday last in the Campania.
A good deal of attention was paid the
worthy old gentleman. who is never tired
of relating to his English friends how
he arrived in Scranton fifty odd years
ago with a few pounds i'm his pocket
and began digging coal; and how he con-
tinued TO dig coal with such success
that he has been able to build a $1,000
600 hotel in Scranton, of course and that
notwithstanding this formidable eXpen-
diture, he could at q stretch realize
sufficient odds and ends in the way of
mines and other insignificant property
| to enable him to write his check for nine
additional millions of dollars. Mr.. Jer-
| myn was quite a humorist in his way,
| and appreciated the eleemosynary cock
tails which fell to his lot as the CUSTOM
| airy tribute which somehow the rich gath
err from the poor. One of the weekly pa
pers publishes his portrait this week and

DROPPED ON FENCE PICKETS.
Awful Death of n Domestic Who Was
Cleaning Windows.

Atlantic City, N. j.. Sept. 22.-It was
a terrible fate which 19-year-olo Caroline
Bretinger met this afternoon. The girl
was a domestic in the cottage of Emil
Petroff, No. 1902 Pacific avenue, Chelsea.
She was cleaning a window on a stair
leading to the second story Of the cot
tage.
She lost her balance and fell, landed
on an iron fence and the sharp pickets
penetrated her skull, forcing one eye
from the socket and tearing half the
scalp. The unfortunate girl was taken
to the city hospital, where she died in
an hour without regaining consciousness.
The coroner will hold an inquest. The
girls home was In Philadelphia.

STRUBLH ROBBED THE BANK.
The Evidence Indicates suicide by
the Cashier.

Shepperd, Mich, Sept 22.-Some start
ling disclosures were brought out in the
evidence today at the Struble inquest,
1t was shown from the bank records that
the dead cashier had at different times
made sham entries of deposits In his
books amounting to nearly $4,000, and
that but for these fictitious deposits the
books would have shown a deficit in the
bank. During most of the time when
these figures were on the books Struble's
funds at the bank were very low. seldom
over $50 and sometimes nothing.
Prosecuting Attorney Mcnamara testi-
fed that all Of Struble's private papers
were missing.
Ihe preponderance of evidence today
decidedly favored the suicide theory.
