SURVEYORS AT WORK,
Are Now Locating a Line Between
Scranton and Pittston for the
Rapid Transit Road.

The force of surveyors under Civil
Engineer James II. Rittenhouse, who
have been surveying for the construc-
tion of the street railway of the Con-
nell Park and Speedway company, be-
tween this city and the Speedway, yes
terday left that part of the work AMI
commenced the work of surveying for
the line between this city and Pitts
ton.
What the reason Of this change IS
could not be learned but the impression
prevailing is that the company desires
the construction of the road between
this city and Pittston before work or
the other line between this city and
the Speedway Is commenced.
William f. Mates, who has charge
of the work Of construction, said yes
terday that he believed things would
be in such shape in a short time as
to warrant the letting of contracts for
a part of the work. He thinks that
the actual work of construction will
be commenced this fall but will not
say where it will be commenced.

MR.. J. G. HAMLIN.
A Prominent Manufacturer and Cap
italist, SAYS:

Il may be visionary, but II has long
been known that no such water power
exists elsewhere on the face of the
earth. The tendency Of the times, as
you have doubtless observed, is toward
the employment Of combinations of
capital and accumulations of wealth in
all permanent and successful manu-
featuring and producing enterprises.
Now suppose that there two factories
of great size, both equal in every re-
spect, each requiring immense power
to carry on Its business. There is no
difference in the conditions affecting
the cost of manufacturing the pro-
duct, excepting that one factory obs
tains its power at a cost Of 10 per
cent. less than that which the other
factory is compelled to pay. 1t is only
question of time when the weak one
win have to go to the wall You can
anticipate what is coming from the
fact that Niagara Falls is being able
to generate electric power constantly,
| every day, year in and year out, at a
cost undoubtedly so per cent less than
it can be produced by any known
! method.

Herbert Putnam, librarian of congress,
Washington d. c.; William c. Lane,
librarian of Harvard college, are
others who have held this office.
Last year Reuben G. Thwaites, su-
perintendent of Wisconsin Historical
society, was the president, and in
some respects he has the widest repu-
tation of any in the category. He is
the editor of the famous Jesuit Re-
latiOns," a work of eighty volumes or
more.
Mr.. Carr brings great ability and long
experience to the office of president
of the National association and it is
safe to predict that it will gain added
prestige under his direction. His SER
vice in connection with the Scranton
Public library has given him little OPP
portunity for completing the literary
work which it is hoped he may yet
accomplish. He has original plans
and aims for the next annual meeting
which will give a new impetus to the
library interests of America.

HAD TO USE A DERRICK.
Woman Weighing 800 Pounds Gave
the "Coppers" Trouble.

Mrs. Charles Thiel. of Center street,
a fair dame weighing not much more
than 300 pounds, yesterday afternoon
gave Patrolman Iona Day and Detec-
tive John Moir a very lively time,
until the arrival of Sergeant Bob Del
ter and the patrol wagon. Then, by
using an improvised derrick. Mrs.
Thiel was hoisted into the wagon and
removed to the central police station.
Mrs. Thiel was glorlously drunk yes
terday noon and while in that con-
dition ran her arm through a pane
of glass in the rear of Saunders mar
ket, on Franklin avenue. She cut her
self badly in so doing, and proceeded
to raise a disturbance, which was not
quelled when Patrolman Day and De-
tectiVe Moir appeared.
She resisted arrest desperately, and
managed to tear Days coat, and to
cover the detectives countenance with
blood from her wounded hand.
Mayor Moir will hear Mrs. Thiels
story this morning.

Wise Elephants.

The baby elephants, members of the
Famous Gentry Dog and Pony Show
this season, are said to be the brightest
specimens of their sort ever exhibited
In fact, it is said they are capable of
going through their performance with
out one word Of command from the
ring master, Their part of the pro-
gramme lasts nearly fifteen minutes,
and comprises some Of the most difl-
cult acts ever attempted by dumb
animals. In addition to their bright
ness, they are the most docile speci-
mems ever seen. Very fond of children
and as playful as cats. They play
many jokes upon the dog and pony
members Of the company, such as
stealing their feed, pulling the dogs
tails, and things of that sort. They
We're imported direct from India by
Prof. Gentry, and nursed on bottles
at his farm in Indiana, until they
We're strong enough to go on the road
with the show. ~

MEN FOLKS HAD A SOCIAL.
Enjoyable Innovation at the Adams
Avenue Chapel.

Rev. James Hughes and his friends
arranged for meeting of men only
In the Adams Avenup Chapel last
night, There was large attendance
sixty men being present, all OF whom
appeared to enjoy themselves very
much.
During the evening Messrs. RANKIN
and Jones sang duet and received
a hearty encore, to which they suit
ably responded. Mr.. u. Jeffrey sang a
solo and gave suitable recitation.
Mr.. Harber gave a song and was re-
called, and Mr.. Hazleton interested the
men with a flute solo. Mr.. Hughes
and Mr.. Chandler delivered short ad-
dresses, in which they gave very
cordial welcome to the men present,
and intimated that the chapel could
be placed at the service of the men
one night q week for social and In
tellectual recreation, If they desired 1t.
Those present were then literally
regaled with ice cream and cake. The
meeting was a great success, and a
good augury for the future.
Rev. James Hughes, who does ex-
tensive pastoral work in that district,
saw that the men had no club room,
or any hall used for social purposes,
where they could meet at the close
of their daily toll to spend a pleasant
hour in friendly conversation and he
suggested to his co-workers the de-
| STABILITY of getting up a mems social,
and his officers cheerfully acquiesced
in the suggestion and pormised the
| pastor their hearty cooperation.
1t is expected that this movement
| on the part of the minister and MEM
| bers of the Adams Avenue chapel
which appears to be so highly appre-
ciated by the men present, will be
| productive of great good, among the
| fathers and sons in that district
| There will be another social gathering
| for men only on the 18th of next
month when it is hoped there will be
a still larger number present.

Her Sons Illness.

New Castle, Pa, Aug. 22.-Mrs. Elizabeth
Clark left for Salem, Ind, today for the bedside
Of her son, whom she dreamed was seriously i'll.
The boy is Is years old and lives with uncle.

them and told the physician of the fact. "What;
have you taken those tabletsI" said he, 81 gave

A MIDTOWN SLEUTH.
Frank Jones Charged with Larceny
of Poliskey's Coat.

Michael Poliskey, of Midtown, COM
planned to Patrolmen Sartor and Per-
ry Tuesday night that he spent the
night in a convivlal manner with a
friend, Frank Jones, and that Jones
left him late in the night, and at the
same time a new suit of clothes he
(Poliskey) had been carrying disap-
peared.
BY the use of a series of deductions
which would put Sherlock Holmes to
blush, the Midtown man connected
the two disappearances and was eager
for Jones arrest. The latter was
taken into custody and yesterday ar
raigned before Mayor Moir, who re-
manded him for further hearing.

A number of local capitalists and
residents of Ubly, Michigan, have
banded together and organized the DR..
Hand Condensed Milk company, with
a capital of 100000.
Dr. d. b. Hand, Of this city, is presi-
dent of the association, and it's head
quarters will be established in Scran-
ton, on the second floor of the Rook-
cry building on Washington avenue.
c. E. Rogers, formerly general mana
ger of the Scranton Dairy company, is
one of the local directors and was
elected general manager of the con-
cern.
The plant of the Huron Condensed
Milk company at Ubly, has been pur-
chased, and will be operated by the
new company.
On Tuesday night a meeting was held
at DR.. Hands office, at which the fol-
lowing board of directors was elected:
Dr. D. b. Hand, Charles W. Matthews,
S. b. Thorne, and c. L. Rogers, Of
Scranton: A. e. Sleeper, J. B. Madill
w. Beach, and A. r. Schell, of Ubly,
| Mich. These officers were elected:
President, DIR. d. b. Hand;
vice president, j. b. Madill treasurer,
| A. L. Sleeper; secretary, c. W. Mat
| thews; general manager, c. e. Rogers.
| The superintendent of the plant at
| Ubly will be Mr.. Schell.
TO BEGIN AT ONCE.
Application was made for a charter
some time ago, and 1t has now been
received and the new company will
| take charge of the plant and begin
business September l.
The four Ubly directors were the
most prominent members of the Huron
| Condensed Milk company and con-
tribute half the capital to the new
| concern.
| The company will also have an office
| in New York, from which the sales
will be largely conducted. j. II. Jones.
of this city, will be in charge of the
| New York branch.
| The plant at Ubly is a building
| equipped with all the most modern
machinery, and is splendidly provided
| with the latest facilities and con-
trivances for carrying on the business.
1t is large brick structure and en-
| ploys sixty hands. 1t is admirably
| situated, being located in the heart of
| a very healthful, dry section of land
| as excellent a site for a condensed
| milk establishment as tnefe is IN rnt
| country. It's daily output is 20C
cases. Each case contains forty-eight
one-pound cans.
| A SPECIAL FEATURE.
The present intention of the COM
pany is to place upon the market both
| condensed milk of the ordinary kind
and a special brand, the formula OF
which is supplied by DR.. Hand. The
| latter consists of a selected milk, tC
| which are added certain phosphates
and hypo-phU. phites which, in con-
junction with the nutritive qualities
of the milk, supply a food especially
adapted to the nurture of nursing in.
infants, to invalids and to persons OF
depleted vitality. This formula is the
result of years of study and expert.
ment on Dr. Hands part, and that il
is likely to supply a general want i:
assured from the fact that withou
advertising and wholly on it's merit!
the preparation has already, in the
few communities where it has beef
introduced gained a remarkable pop
ularity, the sales increasing surprs
ingly.
The capital of the new concern j!
fully subscribed.
