POLICE COURT D0INGs
Blower Thief Captured This Morning { and and .Rronpht tn conrt

J1d0W Sl LAuiSA SsiptuHeu LIS AVlAAA5 and .Brought.tn Court. : s < An example would have been made in the city court this morning of a flower thief but for the clemency of one of the injured parties, Paul Ham ilton of BIT East Main, son of the late Captain D. B. Hamilton. The alleged thief was a young fellow named Joseph Delapo. Of all the annOyances the flower theft is the worst. He not only cometh in the night, but also in the morning. when ohe feels like turning over in bed. At 5:15 this morning MT Hamilton, who had been watching and waiting for the daily visit of the thieves, saw the accused and nabbed him. He was handed over to the po- lice without delay. Delapo said he was a newsb0y and that he stole the roses for his customers. Judge Peas ley was inclined to make an example of the boy but for the clemency of the complainant. The case was continued for thirty days with a warning to the boy and all of his comrades. The next flower thief win be sent to jail
 Daniel Kane, about whose sanity there was some question in court, was charged with intoxication. It was thought best to send him to the aims house and let the selectmen care for him, but upon his promise to leave town the case was continued to Mon- day.
 A small boy named Michael Dica1o, homeless and deserted by his friends and relatives, was committed to the temporary home for children until he becomes 16 years of age.
 Mrs Nellie Dawson was charged with breach of the peace. This made the second appearance of the Dawsons in court this week. They live on Charles street. As on the last occa- sion, the husband was the complain ant. This time the evidence was against him. Officer Mclean and other witnesses contradicted his testi- mony that the woman was intoxicated and raised a row at home. She was discharged.

HOT TIME FOR OFFICERS.
Attacked by Woodchoppers in Avon < M Woods. h g1

e<AIluChSh Uy VOoucuOppeIS III AYOn D, M Woods. ai g1 M Hartford. June 22. Deputy Sheriff
 John M. Foote. and Deputy Sheriff
 Charles L.. Heath met with the warmest
 kind of reception in Avon Thursday
 night. As result of their experience
 both were somewhat bruised yester-
 day and MT Heath had splintered rib
 in addition
 There have been many complaints
 from residents of Avon that Joseph
 Laguire, one of a gang of Canadian
 woodchoppers, WAS selling liquor H.
 legally at a hut in the woods. The
 farm hands were in the habit of visit
 ing the place and getting intoxicated and the assistance of the authorities
 was sought tor suppress the practice5
 A warrant was issued Thursday to raid
 the hut and it was given to MT Foote
 and MT Heath to serve. They drove
 out to Avon in the evening and after
 little difficulty found the hut in the
 woods. 1t was some distance from the travelled path to the hut and the team which they had was left in the woods some distance away. After grop- ing their way in the darkness they got to Iue HUI dD0uI . Q CLOCK. IueTe were about a dozen Canadians about the en- | trance. They were somewhat sur prised at the unexpected appearance of the two strangers and as soon as they ascertained the object of the visit. ! they ran into the woods Sticks and stones began to fly at the officers and the fusilade continued about five min
 utes. The Kerosene light in the hut went out and two deputies were in total darkness. The missiles struck
 them. They finally made their way to the hut, reIighted the lamp and took possession of nine and one-haH dozen bottles of lager beer and two bottles of whiskey.
 A When they were about to come away with the seizure, Laguire appeared at the hut. He was placed under arrest on the charge of violating the license law but was subsequently released on the promise of his employer to have him in court when wanted. The date for the hearing has not been fixed but 1 it will come before Joseph F. Futile of this city at Avon as a justice of the peace.

RUNAWAY BOY IN DRESSES.
Parents After Many Experience Adopt
 Old Method to Reform the Lad.

Old Method to Reform the Lad. Newark, N. J., June 22. The old, old method of keeping runaway boy at home has been employed by the par ents of Raymond Brown, 13 years old, of Irvington. They have put hiln in dresses. Until yesterday Raymond was kept on bread and water diet.
 He had run away from home for tho sixth or seventh time, and when found he was locked up. When he was re- leased yesterday Recorder Mayheld re- marked that the only thing to do with such q lad was to put him in dresses. His parents adopted the suggestion, and this morning when Raymond woke up he learned that his usual clothes had been removed and that dresses Lad been put in their place As there are no girls in the family his mother hnd given him some of her old clothes.
 As he got up to dress yesterday, he looked around the room for his clothes, but they were nowhere to be found. Poking his head out through the bed- room door, he bawled:
 Hey, ma, where's my coat and breechesY'
 Your clothes are in your room on, the chair, and you'd better put them on. They're the only ones you'll get,"' was the reply.
 After deliberating for awhile and stamping about the room In high dud- geon, Raymond donned the dresses and went down stairs. It was all his par ents could do to keep from laughing. His face wore sheepish look, and he showed an unusual disposition to keep indoors. Somehow the news of his punishment got abroad, and many of his boy companions gathered in the yard and peeped in the windows. When they saw him they gave vent to pro lopged bowls.

A new TURN
IN SHOP STRIKE
Employees Receive Pay and
Are Dismissed.
Company Will Not Re-em-
pIoy Them Unless They
Sign An Agreement--The
Bluff Doesn't Work.

There was decidedly unexpected turn
in affairs OF the strike of the machinists
employed in the Drifton shops the past
few days, and it is apparent now that
the battle will be a long drawn out one.
Wednesday afternoon the employees
marched in a body from the Municipal
building, whore II meeting had been in
progress, to the pay office at Drifton,
whore they were paid the money still
due them.
The greatest surprise to the men, how
ever, was when they opened their en-
yelopes, to find enclosed the following
notice:
In view of the reorganization of the
forces in the shops at Drifton, your ser
vices as an employe of said shops will
cease from this date. Should you be re-
employed, it will be undor conditions
mentioned in notice posted at the
principal Offices of the said shops. Sign
ed, Coke Bros & Co., Incop."
When the contents Of the notice was
announced, there was considerable ex-
citement among the business people of
town, and while opinion is somewhat
divided, the machinists have the sym
pathy of almost everyone in their battle
for what seems but right and just.
The impression is general among the
strikers that this action on the part of
the company is an effort to frghten
them into submission and declare that
it will fail to produce the desired effect
for they are determined to remain irm
to the end. The company's bluff dosen't
work
The opinion prevails to some degree
that the strike cannot last much longer
as the repair WORK is necessary on en-
gines and other things CONNECTED with
the d. S. e 5. road, are in such shape
as to warrant speedy termination of
the present difficulties.

Resumed Work Today.

The strike of the miners employed at
the Hazlc Brook colliery is at an end,
peace having been declared at a meeting
held Wednesday evening, One week
ago the men laid down their tools, and
since then they have tried hard to get a
settlement Of their grievances, but of
no avail President Duffy remained
with the men all day, and in the even
ing meeting was held, at which was
discussed the terms offered. A vote was
taken on the measure and the men

RURAL DELIVERY.
Wilkesbarre Reporter Finds 1t IA Good
Thing in This County.

About year ago rural freesdelivery
portion of the lower end OF Luzerne
county including the fine farming region
on the Nescopeek mountain. When it
was first inaugurated it was fought
bitterly by the country store keepers,
and OF course the postmasters who were
displaced by the new service did not feel
kindly towards it.
complete delivery is made once
every day by the carriers who are paid
$500 year. These latter have also the
privilege of doing pony express busi-
ness, carrying packages, etc, The
result in the Nescopeck regions has
proved it to be a blessing to the farmer
and his family.
Through the daily calls of Uncle Sans
uniformed messenger the farm has lost
the lonlness and the insolation which
made it hard to bear for the younger
people, and they are more satisfied and
content. Even the morals OF the dis
trict are said to be improved by this
bringing into daily communication with
the world farm and family who had
heretofore been practically cut off.
The farm buildings are being i'm
proved, front yards ornamented, fences
and drives fixed up, and general desire
to be as good as anybody on tho route
is expressed.
Aside from improvements on this line,
the farmer is keeping in daily touch with
the market aud knows when and where
to dispose of his product to the best
advantage. There are numerous other
advantages which have developed from
the mail mans call, not to mention the
many bright little romances between the
farmers daughter and the young men of
the region by reason of the improved
facilities for Communication.
When the hand of aflliction and death
falls, it is no longer several days Of
heart breaking lonlncss that those
bereft have to bear before sympathizing
neighbor learns the news, but it is
carried at once to those who should
know
Rural free delivery, which has helped
to make country life in England one of
much comfort for more than half
century, was slow coming to this coun-
try. Now that it has been started it is
hoped that the service will be enlarged
as fast as possible, to embrace every
state in the union
