~"FINNIGAN'S BALL"

One ofthe largest audiences which ey-
er greeted a theatrical company in Lar
annie was that which witnessed the per-
formance given by the Murray and
Mack company at the Manager opera
house last night, in fact the house was
unable to hold all those who desired
to see the noted Irish comedians, every
particle of standing room being oc-
cupied and many turned away. The
audience was also a very appreciative
one and the repeated encores given the
performers showed their efforts were
not wasted. Murray and Mack are
clever in their lines and the supporting
company Is above the average. There
is little to the play but it abounds in
wit, fun and good singing and every
one was kept in the best of humor.

Dead Soldiers Will.

For the first time in the history of
Lackawanna county soldiers will
was offered for probate, yesterday. 1t
was the will of Private William Hena-
CHAN, Company K, Eleventh regiment,
United States infantry, stationed at
Columbus, N. Y, formerly of this city,
whose death occurred last May. The
will is dated May 8, 1900.

John Brown, Of 402 Twentieth street,
Scranton, Pa" The will was forward =
ed by Acting Auditor Dan A. Grosven-
or, of the war department, who receiv-
ed 1t from the commander of Fort
Columbus.
The fact that the dacedant signed the
will with "his mark" and that the
witnesses are two soldiers still in SER
vice, delays the grenting of the letters
testamentary to the elected executor.
Attorney NJ. F. Conroy represents the
executor. The estate consists only of
the dead soldiers pay and bounties and
few personal belongings.

Dalton, was yesterday admitted to pro-

The rather unique spectacle Of an
Ice house, filled to the roof with fee,
burning fiercely with hardly a breath
of air to stir the flames, was afforded
several thousand persons yesterday
morning who gathered In the vicinity
of the corner of Ash street and Adams
avenue to witness a blaze which COM
pletely destroyed the large ice house
and barn of the Consumers Ice COM
pany, located at that point.
The ice house was situated right on
the corner and was SOxl4O feet in size
and 30 feet high. Next It, on the north
side, was the barn, a structure 40x120
feet in size. Both buildings were frame
with corrugated sheet iron roofs.
The fire was first discovered about
9.15 o'clock on the south side of the
building, next the tracks of the Erie
and Wyoming Valley railroad. The
flames had then got pretty good start
and an alarm was promptly turned in
from Box 67. Alex. Dunn, jr., also
turned in a telephone alarm from the
residence of Chief Of Police Robling,
nearby.

COLLECTIONS FOR YEAR.
During the Year Ending June 80
$1,s77, 1888 Was Collected for
Uncle Sam in This District.

Internal Revenue Collector T. f.
Penman yesterday completed the tabu-
lation of the collectiorH for the Twelfth
district for the year ending June 80,
1900 They amount all told to $1,S77,-
1888, an increase of $57 7,12662 over the
preceding year.
comparison of the increase of 1900
over 1899, with the increase of 1899
over 1898 would have little or no sig
niticsnce, as the latter increase was
made abnormal by the fact that the
1899 report included for the first time
the war taxes. The increase of $751;
1862 noted above is slightly in ex-
cess of per cent. of increase of pre-
vious years when the collections were
normal.
Appended is a table showing the COL
lections for each month of all kinds,
with the totals for each class and
each month, and the grand total. The
only item omitted is 81 cents for play
ing cards stamps.
