THEY TORE THE FLAG.
Three Bellevue Boys Have Got Into
n Heap of Trouble.

"InjurinG, removing, pollutinG and
mutilating an United States flag was
the rather serious charge on which
three Bellevue boys We're yesterday ar
rested on a warrant issued by Alder
man Millar.
The boys, Thomas FOrkin, Robert
Walton and Thomas Jones, from u to
IA years old, are accused Of hauling
down a flag from a pole in the yard OF
the Jewish church in Bellevue and
tearing the Colors. Fortunately for
them their act was suggested by spite
against the owners Of the fiag and not
against the emblem itself or more Sc
we're punishment would await them.
They pulled the flag down and tore it
Sunday afternoon. Il. Weiss and J.
Brandt, of the congregation, are the
prosecutors in the case.
Patrolmen Walsh and Feeney made
the arrests. The boys parents waived
a hearing for them before Alderman
Millet, who held them under $500 bail
to appear at court. John G. Jones and
p. J.MahOn became their bondsmen.
The charge is one of the most serious
in the statutes. The act of April, 1897,
provides severe punishment for the Of

DEATH OF BRILLIANT HAL LEACH.
He Had Many Friends and Relations
in This CITY.

The news which reached here yester-
dav OF tho sudden death Of "HaI
Leacn in San Francisco shocked many
people in this city whore he was born
and where ho lived for many years.
1t is but few months since resi-
dents Of Scranton called upon him dur
ing visit to California and found him
pleasantly situated and enthusiastic
over his journalistic work.
Harold Leach younger son Of the late
Ebenezer Leach, of Providence, was
born in 1856. lie graduated from Wy
oming seminary and studied law in
Judge Willard's Office, being admitted
to practice in 1850. He had q rcmar-
kably fine mind and was a gifted ora
tor. His political speeches were quoted
far and wide and won much commen-
dation. His many brilliant qualities
were so well recognized that Il great
career seemed to await him.
He always had a fondness for news"
paper work and FOR a time was a
valued writer on several Philadelphia
papers Later he returned and took up
the practice Of law in f. l.. Collins
office. About twelve years ago he went
to san Francisco. was admitted to the
bar and also did important work on
the Chronicle of that city.

MEETING OF PAvEMENTS COMMITTEE
Property Owners of HYDE Park Ave.
nue. Had Il Hearing.

The paVcmentS committee Of select
council last night met and heard sew
eraI property owners who object to
the laying Of the Hyde Park avenue
pavement for much the same reasons
as prevailed in connection with the
proposed Providence pavement.
The ordinance for paving Hyde Park
avenue between Lafayette and Divis-
ion streets is now on it's passage.
Property owners between jackson and
Washburn street recently petitioned
councils not to permit the laying Of
the pavement until the sewer on the
avenue was enlarged or some other
steps taken to increase the present
sewer facilities which are undoubtedly
inadequate. The sewer is only twelve
inches in diameter and performs a ser
vice wholly out Of proportion to its
size.
1t was suggested by the property
owners last night that if the sewer
could not be enlarged some relief might
be obtained by making connection
with the Jackson street sewer.
The committee could not encOurag ge
the latter proposition as the Jackson
street sewer, which cmpties into the
Main avenue sewer, is but eight inches
in diameter and is none too large to
properly serve the territory dependent
upon it. 1t does not extend to the
Hyde Park avenue corner, its western
terminus being thirty feet away from
the latter thoroughfare.
While the pavomcnts committee was
anxious to accord the property owners
cy possible consideration they were
una ic to reach any definite Conclus-
ion last night in the absence of infor-
nation from the city engineer 1t is
possible that he may be consulted to-
day and a report may be made to
select council tonight,
Chairman O'Boyle and Mcssrs. Nc

! bers Of the committee present to hear

OLD RELIABLE GAMES.
The aIedoninns to the Front for the
Fourth of JulV.

For thirty-one years the Caledonian
club, of this city, has run games here
annually, and none can say that they
yet failed in an agreement they made
with the public. For this reason when
they announce a startling attraction it
can be relied upon to be as advertised.
a more startling attraction was never
announced in recent years than they
advertise for the Driving Park on July
4. 1t combines all the excitement of
balloon ascension and parachute
drop, together with the firing of a
cannon which has for a shot the aero
naut, who afterwards desCends with
the parachute. The usual games, with
larger prizes than ever, will be given.
Remember and go>to the Driving Park
on the Fourth. The admission is only
25 cents.
