rents the same year, when they settled
in the North End. His parents re-
sided in that section until 1868, when
they removed to the West Side.
He received his early education in
the Scranton public schools and gradu-
ated from Eastman college at Pough-
keepsie, n. Y, in 1882. Early in his
business life he was interested with
his father and brother in the firm of
ID. d. Evans & Co. until he entered the
shoe business in 1887. He is now one
of the firm of Evans e. Powell, which
conducts the flourishing shoe store on
South Main avenue. near Jackson
street.
Mr.. Evans is a charter member OF
the West Side conclave of Heptasophs
and is serving his seventh year as its
financier, he having been retained in
that office since the conclave was Or
ganized. He is also charter member
of Robert Morris lodge, American Ivor-
ties, and is a past master of Enter
prise lodge, No. q, Loyal knights Of
America.
For many years Mr.. Evans has been
chorister at the Plymouth Congrega-
tional church, in which capacity he has
established the reputation of being one
of the most alert and successful music
| conductors in the city.
Mr.. Evans is considered one of the
progressive and successful young busi-
| ness men of the city. His whole career
| since leaving college has been one of
| activity and usefulness and of a kind
| calculated to win the favor and esteem
| of many business associates and
| friends He has always manifested a
lively interest in the local and national
welfare of his party and, while in no
sense a politician, has been ever ready
to support it's accredited candidates.
If mans worth is determined by
his standing among his neighbors and
near friends, Mr.. Evans has cause for
qualification. In the Fifteenth ward
where he lives, no resident is in better
repute and standing. Expressions OF
loyalty and support have come to him
from all over the city and he has
ample cause to believe ne will be elect
ed school director on Tuesday.

Millar last night in the central city
armory. There was a large crowd OF
spectators, the unusual attendance
probably being due to the fact that the
command was voted as the leading
company in the state up to the time
of the last inspection and still main
tains an enviable position among the
ranking companies of the guard.
One hundred per cent, of the COM
pany membership was present last
night. From the expressed opinions of
the regimental officers who saw the
command go through its course OF
sprouts, it made a very creditable
showing. With Major Millar was his
orderly, Sergeant Keck, of Company
d, Ninth regiment, Wilkes Barre, a
son of Colonel Keck. Major f. w.
Stilwell, of the Second battalion, to
which the company is attached, wit
messed the inspection. The company
was in command of Captain Thomas
Gilman, First Lieutenant w. w. 1nglis
and Second Lieutenant Arthur Foote.
All the Thirteenth's companies have
now been inspected, excepting Com
panies A, G and II, which will go
through the ordeal next Monday,
Wednesday and Friday evenings re-
pectively. During the week of Feb.
20 Major Millar will inspect the Eighth
regiment, whose headquarters is at
Wrightsville, York county, and which
has commands also at Harrisburg,
Chambersburg and Carlisle.

UNION WORKMAN STRUCK.
A Non-Union Workman Was the
Cause OF This Action.

A gang Of union carpenters. num-
bering forty men, in the employ of the
Peck Lumber company, struck work
yesterday because of the employment
of a non union laborer on a seven
block house now building at the cor
ner of Green Ridge street and Penn
avenue. The workman's name Is Thos.
]. Tamblyn. He resides at 1887 Penn
avenue and had been employed as a
carpenter by the Peck company since
last August.
Thursday afternoon. at the demand
of the union workmen Foreman Kear-
ney, who was in charge Of the gang,
discharged Tamblyn. During Thurs
day night, however. there were several
changes and yesterday morning when
the men reported they found Tamblyn
on hand ready to be put at work.
The men rebclled and again demand
ed Tamblyn's discharge. Superintend-
ent Peck, it is said, refused the demand
and the union men left work in a body.
The house is being built for DIR. F. It,
Windt. of Green Ridge.

CONCERT AT BICYCLE CLUB.
Given for the Benefit of the Florence
Crittenden Mission.

The concert given in the Scranton
Bicycle club last night for the benefit
of the Florence Crittenden mission at
tracted a goodly number of lovers of
song and it is probable the audience
would have been larger had not people
generally supposed there would not be
room owing to the conditions of the
audience room of the building. Those
who attended had an evening Of great
enjoyment.
The stars of the occasion were Sig
nor Del Puente and Madam Campbell.
1t was noticeable that Signor Del
Puente's voice lacked something of the
clearness and quality it possessed on
his former appearance here, but it is
still remarkable voice and Is used
with rare intelligence. His chief eff
fore was the Fargo al Factotum"
from Rossini's Barber of SaVille." 1t
was received with such favor that he
was compelled to respond TO an encore
and gave BiZet's "TOreador Song" from
Carmen" in which the tempo was
much slower than it is generally sung.
Nine Campbell, who possesses a rich
mezzo soprano voice, was happy in
her selections, the Aria from "Ungon-
otti," by Meyerbeer and the plaintive
"iAscia Chic Pianga," from the opera
"Rinaldo," by Handel. She responded
to an encore by singing a soothing lul-
laby.
Several relief numbers were given in
a highly creditable manner by trio,
consisting of Fred Widmayer violin.
Harvey Blackwood, cello; Charles Do
ersam, pianist. Each number being
well received. Messrs. Widmayer and
Blackwood also did we'll in their solos,
which were warmly encored, the latter
replying with one of his recent COM
positions.
The duets, La ci Davem," from
Don Giovanni" and the Grand Du-
ett," by ManzocchL by Signor Del
Puente and Nine. Campbell, were
among the most interesting features of
the concert.
j. G. Workhurst, Of Philadelphia,
proved to be most efficient accom-
panist, as did also Charles Doersam.
Altogether the entertainment reflects
considerable credit on Miss Fay SEQ
hey, of Philadelphia, who arranged II
as she also did the concert given for
the mission one year ago.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1898-02-12

recalled and testified that It was the
duty of the building inspector, as he
understood IL, to look after the unsafe
walls inside the building line. The
street commissioner only looks after
the streets and courts.
Mr.. Dunning did not care to venture
an opinion on the duties of the build
ing inspector. He said, however, that
he and Mr.. Nelson had examined the
walls during the day and were to meet
the next morning to decide upon which
ones should be pulled down, if any.
Coroner Longstreet then read depo-
sitions made by Greiser, in which he
corroborates the previous witnesses in
regard to the instructions from the
street commissioner. He himself told
Gogolin that the walls were unsafe, as
will be seen by the following state
ment made to Coroner Longstreet;
Before going home on the evening of
the 4th / had instructions to keep play
ing on the fire with two streams all
night and not to get inside of the build
ing. They also told me the walls were
not safe and not to go into the build
ings.
"who told your tby Coroner Long
street,.
"Schwass, was there. he told u.s.
who besides yourself?'
Nobody except myself"
He also told us that If the fire was not
burning not to play the nozzle all the
time, but keep 1t inside of the building
and let 1t have its own course.
did you tell the other man about the
buildings being unsafe?" Thy Coroner
LongstreeD.
mo, Schwass told them"
"How did you take the hose into the
building?"
From the rear"
81 told Mike Gogoln that there was
no use in going in there as it was very
near morning and the walls were not
| safe. l saw the wall coming and jumped
| behind the post l am a regular street
man and also belong to the fire depart
| ment. That is why they sent for me thai
| morning"
The jury thought it better, befor,
| rendering a verdict, to hear the testi
mony of Building Inspector Nelson ant
| Patrolman Neuls, and accordingly ad
| journed to meet next Friday night.

CHEF HICKEY HURT.
Rusty Nail Penetrated His Foot DUR
ing a Night Fire.

Chief Hickey, Of the fire department,
met with what may prove astrouble-
some injury at the fire on Luzerne
street early yesterday morning. While
directing the work of the firemen he
stepped on rusty nail protruding
from board and it penetrated his foot
to the bone.
Help was necessary to extficate the
nail. The chief was Immediately taken
home in his service wagon and a
physician summoned to treat the in
jury. Yesterday he was unable to
walk, but there were no positive in
dications that blood poisoning would
be caused by the wound.
