NEW METHOD OF THIEVING
Is Employed This Winter by scran-
ton Lawbreakers with a Consid-
cradle Amount of Success.

\ new and odd method If thicving
has been developed among the Scran-
ton law breakers this winter. and one
of trouble. It consists in the throwing
of stones or bricks through large shop
windows. In most cases theft is the
object, but in other Instances it has
taken the form of pure meanne So, mere
damage to the property being the OBJ
ject.
The first place where this novel
method of robbery was employed was
at the jewelry store OF x. Radin oI,
Penn avenue. The shop window had
Il stone hurled through it, hole being
made about three inches in diameter.
through which the thief reached his
hand and distracted several small
pieces of jewelry. The next place
made the SCENE Of the unkrown's dep.
relations was Schla GER ) store of sport
ing goods on Washington avenue.
Here also Il considerable haul was
made. in both Instances g large stonr
being found on the inside OF tho win d.
dow. The next place visited va tn"
store of MichaClian brothers, dealers
in Oriental carpets and curios, IN
Washington avenue.
Here small tray of valuable orna-
ments was secured. About three weeks
ago a hole was discovered in the large
show window of an empty store ON
Washington avenue, and there seems
to be little Doubt that the mysterious
stone thrower who has robbed thes +,
various places also broke this window.
Last week brick was hurled
through the window of Sheffield &
Nola's barber shop on Spruce street.
but the man who threw it was scared
away before he could secure any booty.
The brick thrown was wrapped care
fully in thick manila paper. and it ia
supposed that this is done to deadon
the sound as the missile strikes tho
glass. The thieves carefuily watch the
patrolmen on the beat and always con-
duet their work when the guardian of
the peace is as far as possible from the
scene OF their operations.

BOARD OF CONTROL APPEAL.
It Will Be Argued Before the Court
on Feb, "a.

The appeal of the Scranton board of
control from Judge X. w. Archbalds
ruling discharging the mandamus to
compel the city controller to counter
sign school board warrants will be
argued before the supreme court on
February "a by Attorney David J.
Reedy for the school board and City
Solicitor A. A. Vosburg for Controller
Howell.
Attorney Vosburg will argue that. In
keeping with Judge Archbalds ruling,
the act of 1874 is clearly unconstitu-
tional. Firstly, because the title Is de-
fectivc, as it does not allude to the sub
ject of schools and secondly, because
there are two subjects legislated upon
which have no connection with each
other. the objects and aims of NUM-
cipaltes and school districts being es-
sentially different.
The controllers of third-class cities
throughout the state are now becoming
interested in the local contest between
the school board and Controller Howell
and If the supreme court hands down
a decision favorable to the latter the
school boards throughout the state
may find themselves compelled to pay
extra compensation for the auditing OF
their accounts.

McCann. in which he decides that the
title to the real estate on Lackawanna
and Jefferson avenues. conveyed to

then descend to his next blood rela-
ton.
Martha s. McCann contracted to pur-
chase a portion of the real estate in
question, but when the time came to
make payment declined to pay, al
leging that NJ. p. Mccain held only q
life interest in the estate and could
not give title. He brought suit and
Judge Purdy decided that he has full
and complete title Just as IL the be-
quest was to NJ p. Mccain and then
his heirs.
Nosburg & Dawson, representing the
defendant. will appeal the case to the
supreme court.
