John McCloskey, OF South Scranton,
awoke yesterday from a four-days'
stupor. He is at the Lackawanna hos
pital
II was not deep dream of peace.
McCloskeys sleep was broken by the
widest visions and pains from what
the hospital physicians say was pois-
oned stomach. The police have been
notified of the facts of the case and
the result may be the arrest of some
person or persons now known only to
McCloskey, the police and the hospital
physicians
At 6 o'clock last Sunday evening
three young men were returning to
their homes in South Scranton. AS
they were passing under the railroad
arch on Adams avenue, below Lacka-
wanna, one of the young men stumbled
over the PROSTATE body of man. 1t
was McCloskeY. He was carried into
the quarters of the Phoenix engine
house on Lackawanna avenue, near
by. and laid out upcn the floor.
Something about the appearance of
McCloskey caused the permanent men
at the Phoenix to send not for police
officer, but for the Lackawanna hos
pital ambulance. At the hospital a
stomach pump was used. The con-
tents of McCloskey's stomach were
| subjected to an analysis, the result Of
which was a conclusion that McClos-
key had been "doped' or poisoned.
The next day, Monday, when friends
of the man called, they further con-
firmed the idea of foul play by saying
| that McCloskey was a total abstainer
and had never in his life drank liquors
| of any kind. Yesterday McCloskey re-
| covered sufficiently from the effects of
| the drug to tell of his whereabouts Sun
! day. The information CLEANED will be
| placed at the disposal of the police.
! McCloskey is still very weak, physic-
ally, and shows an inclination to avoid
| talking of the matter. He is 30 years
of age

route will be met on arrival at Dearborn
station, Chicago, by corps Of uniform
sttendepts who will assist passengers to
omnibusses, street cars or direct them to
the cab Office. Other duties Of the attend
ants will be to carry hand baggage and to
perform any other light service. Their
assistance will be particularly grateful to
the aged and infirm and to ladies travel
ing alone or accompanied by small chill
dren. As it is absolutely free there
should be no hesitency in making full
use Of the service. Guides will wear
blue uniform and a red cap.

The end of the feud between Editor
Brann and the Baylor Baptist Univer-
sity il thoroughly compatible with what
some people consider ''chivalry." Four
men now lie in the local grave yard at
Waco, four widows and sixteen or
phans weep and mourn as the results;
and the facts as to the truth of Brann's
charRes have been no nearer deter
mined than the day after his article
appeared. If his article was true it
deserved co be made public. II not
true, mObbing and killing was poor
way to resent injuries to an institution
supposed TO teach the doctrines of Him
who said "rurn the other cheek
Brann was one of the most brilliant
and witty writers of the times. His
irony was qlirkiug and punRent beyond
almost any rival and was usually di-
rected against something which de-
served to be Laughed out of exist
ance." But mixed with 1t was strain
of vulgarity bordering on the forbidden
which subverted the good he might
have done. Had these elements been
eliminated from his writings without
detracting from the piquancy of his
style, he would have been one of the
most truly, remarkable writers of the
age. But perhaps that would have
hamperad his individuality until the
product would have been tame. In
other words he would not have been
Brann. Some men of genius seem born
to a certain sort of work which train
ing most skillful can not change and,
unfortunately perhaps, the work may
be altogether laudable, altogether rep
rehensible, or mixture of both.

certainly be favorable to the United

navy is nearly, if net quite the equal Of
our own, and in some particulars is SUI
periOr, notably in the matter of torpedo
boats. Further more the relative value
of the different departments Ofthe navy
is entirely nOw-a.d days matter of con
lecture as it has been so long since a

made In battle. that no one knows to
what extent naval warfare has been

and SIX children, He has done great
deal for that fellow. But when He
gives him a society woman and poodle
He has thrown off on him. l have had
some of these little old society women
shake hands with me; l had as soon
shake dead fshes' tail. A man said
to a society woman: 4 hope I'll see
more of you.' She said: Come to the
ball tonight You old sisters wear
high collars around your necF-that's
modest and comedy. But deliver nae
from the society women who button
their collars around their waists. In
cutting off the top Of their dresses for

left. You preachers talk about the
