made up of several articles Of cro-
Cheted and knit work, in a saloon at
Penn avenue and Linden street. He
took TO his heels when he saw the
policemen, who, however, succeeded
in capturing him.
1t is believed that the articles were
stolen, but this is vigorously denied by
the prisoner. For a long time after
he mad been incarcerated in one of the
cells he spoke loudly and bitterly, CIV
ing an elaborate and forceful speech.
He acclaimed his innocence in strident
tones, spoke of the inherent spirit of
honesty coursing through his veins,
and then suddenly burst into a pa
thetic strain, speaking of his home and
mother. From this he rambled on into
a discourse descriptive of the grandeur
OF the Coggins family in general, and
Muggins Coggins in particular. He
clinched his masterful effort by gen.
erous offer to eat his own hat if what
he said was not true.

MEETING OF woMAN's CLUB.
Chief Feature a Paper Prepared by
DR.. Dimful.

The economic section OF the Green
Ridge Woman's club held fortnlghtly
meeting yesterday which was well at
tended. The chief feature of the pro-
gramme was a paper prepared by DIR.
Dimful, of the International Corre-
spondence schools, relating to water
and it's dangers. 1t was scientific in
nature and contained much instructive
and interesting matter.
The writer did not consider that
water had been proved as being the
source of as much danger as has some
times been asserted, but still recog-
nized grave possibilities in the con-
taminat on from certain sources, par
ticularly with regard to typhoid.
DR.. Alfred Mercer, of Syracuse, N.
Y, also made an address. He
is former member of the
New York state board of health
and gave a valuable talk. in the
course of which he stated that in Syra-
cuse the water supply is controlled by
the city, is fitted with residence meters
which cost the working men about 55
year for the water used in his family
He Is strongly in favor of the meter
system, but then, as the ladies ex-
planned, he does not live in Scranton.
The remainder Of the session was de-
voted to discussion. The question Of
the wicked lead pipe was taken up
| and SO much excitement was caused
by the remarks concerning the danger
in school buildings, where water stands
eighteen hours in the pipes, that 1t was
decided to make a protest to the
| board of control. The remedies offered
are iron pipes with galvanized lining,
or a practice Of allowing the water TO
run continuously during the hours
when the schools are closed for the
| night. All of these suggestions would
| be expensive If applied.
| The Providence Water company was
also discussed. A committee has Wis
tied the upper reservoir known as Sum-
NIT Lake, and the members of that
committee have returned with their
noses held high in the cir, as the re-
suit of what they consider extremely
filthy conditions at that rural resort.
A mass meeting will be held this
evening. when many addresses will be
heard and the subject CT water will be
thoroughly discussed.
