A HERO OF SANTIAGO.
Came Home to Attend the Funeral
of His Father, Patrick Mon
Afghan, Late of Dunmore.

Scranton can boast of the presence
within her limits of hero from the
cory field of Santiago in Cuba in the
person of James Monaghan.
He is a wounded hero, too. having
reen shot in the left arm during the
last days fighting after having passed
safely through all the other fracases.
Monaghan was summoned here from
Key West when he had been removed
to the hospital, by a telegram an
nouncirg the death of his father. Pat
rick Monaghan, of Dunmore. The par
ent was killed last Friday morning in
the Dunmoro yard of the Erie and
Wyoming Valley railroad. The wound
ed soldier was granted immediate
leave of absence and reached here
yesterday morning via the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western railroad.
He is sun-hurned and shows the evil
dcnces of his sufferings but his spirit
remains undauntei. He has been n
private in the regular army for four
years and was sent to Santiago with
detail of sharp shooters from the
Eleventh United States infantry the
main body OF which is now at Tampa
florida. The detail were to be used
AS o guard for the hospital, but every
regular was used in the fighting before
Santiago ana thus he received his
wound.
He speaks highly Of the bravery dis
played by his comrades in arms but
has little to say about himself. for he
is a very modest young man as becomes
brave soldier. The officers, he says
cannot be praised too highly. In some
manner he dropped his furlough and
other valuable papers somewhere be
tween the Delaware. Lackawanna ano
Western station and the Western Unior
telegraph Office on Lackawanna ave.
| nue.. The finder will confer a grea
| favor by returning these articles to hi;
| home in Dunmore.

NUNS ALMOST FATAL INJURY
Sister Christina, of st. Johns
Church, Pittston, the Sufferer.

Sister Christina, of st. Johns con-
vent, Pittston, was almost fatally in
jured Sunday morning while attending
to her usual duties at the church. The
sanctuary lamp, which is her especial
care, fell from its fastenings and struck
her on the head, infiicting an ugly
wound and rendering her unconscious.
She is in the care of DIR. Barrett and
is doing we'll under the circumstances.
Sister Christina had filled and pre-
pared the sanctuary lamp, which is
suspended before the main altar, and
was in the act of raising II to the Gus
tomary suspended position when the
heavy weight which balances the lamp
broke from its fastenings and the lamp
thus freed descended on the sisters
head, causing the injury. She was re-
moved to the convent on Butler street,
and the physician called.
Only on July last the injured sister
was prostrated by eating something
containing q poisonous substance and
had not fully recovered. She was
| known to the world as Miss Kate Nc
| Gowan, of this city. Her relatives are
with her.

CHAIRMAN SELECTED.

Saturday night the conference COM
mittee held its first meeting and did
little save name p. F. Mccain as chair
man. He is one of the select members
of it and the other two are T. c. Mel
vim and II. T. Fellows. The common
council is represented by Luther Kel-
Ter, 7. b. Jackson and +. w. Zizel-
man.
Mr.. Keller was unable to be present,
and as a courtesy to him the other
members of the conference decided to
adjourn until last night when all the
members were present..
After a good deal of discussion. some
| of which was somewhat heated, Mr..
Keller offered as a compromise that
| the new company put its wires under
| ground al once in the business district
of the central city, which is bounded
| by Washington avenue, Linden street,
| Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
| railroad and the Lackawanna river.
! This called forth another big batch
of arguments pro and con, but the
| members of the committee would not
accept the compromise and at 1890 ad-
| journed until Thursday evening, when
they will hold another session just
before the council meeting.
There is very little likelihood of ar
agreement being reached and if the
differences that exist between the two
branches are not harmonized the ordi'
nance is practically dead.
1t has occasioned the lveliest fight
in council that has occurred since the
| passage of an ordnance granting a
| franchise to the Valley Passenger
Railway company.

If indications are to be relied upon
the new telephone ordinance will die
by being crushed between the mill
stones OF the two councils.
Select and common council are un-
able to agree upon the form of an or
dinance granting a franchise to the
Lackawanna Telephone company and
each branch appointed a committee Of
three members to meet and endeavor
to reconcile the differences of the two
branches.
The select council believes the new
company should be compelled to lay its
wires underground at once in the ter
ritory embraced within a radius of 1000
yards of the court house. This provis-
ion the officials of the Lackawanna
Telephone company say would be pro-
hibitive and prevent the erection of a
plant.
Common council took this view OF
the situation and amended the ordi-
nance to the effect that the new COM
pany should be compelled at the out
set to lay only 1900 feet of wire under
ground.
Members of the select refused to look
| at the question in that way and COM
mon council was equally obstinate In
refusing to appreciate the 1,0O0-yard
radius proposition.
