legc was given with great success in
the handsome hall Of the Columbia
Female college Thursday evening,
Oct. 81. A large and representative
audience filled the room and everyone
OF the numbers on the program was

Lucy Shannon has a pure, sweet, high
soprano voice, which shows evidence
OF high cultivation and careful train.
ing. What is seldom the case with a
high soprano, her low notes are as
clear and well sustained as those Of
high register. The accuracy and dis

larly captivated the audience.

Wednesday at o'clock the fall term
of the Circuit Court of this county con-
vened, Judge James H. Neville presid-
ing and Hon. w. A. White, District At
torney.
After IS good and true men were
sworn and seated in the jury box as
grand jury, Judge Neville in clear,
comprehensive and impressive manner
charged the jury on the law, which is SO
often violated and trampled under foot.
The Judge paid special attention to the
Sunday law and urged the jury to look
into its violations in this county, par
ticularly as he was informed that every
whiskey saloon in Scranton sold liquor
on Sunday, except one. Market houses
and green grocers kept open on Sunday
He dwelt at some length on the crime OF
gambling, rafting, selling lottery tick
cts and the meaness of our population
generally. 1t was the warmest shaking
up of the evil doers of this place thai
ever fell from the lips Of any Judge thai
ever presided over the courts OF this
county. We believe the charge OF Judge
Neville will produce good fruit.

CAN CONDEMN LAND.
Corporation Counsel McDer-
mott Says Water Pipe Lines
Can Be Laid.

Yesterday afternoons session Of the
Street and Water Board was short. Wal
lis, Edwards and Bumsted, attorneys, re-
presenting the Jersey City Water Supply
Company made their sixth application
for permission to condemn certain lands
for laying pipe to carry water from the
new plant at Boonton. This application
was accompanied by an opinion from
Corporation Counsel Allan L. McDermott
that the Street and Water Board had the
right to grant such permission if it
deemed it wise.
A communication was received from the
Lafayette Citizens Association, composed
of property owners, notifying the Board
that at a recent meeting the association
adopted a resolution favoring the Van
Horne site for park in the Lafayette
section. The property is bounded by Com
munipaw avenue, Van Horne and Lafay-
cite streets, and the owner wants $4,000
for it. The communication was referred
to the Committee ON Parks and Buildings
The Board decided to proceed with the
Improvement of Stevens avenue, from
Hudson Boulevard to Ocean avenue. The
specifications of Milton avenue, from
Griffith street to Lincoln street. as pre-
eented by the Engineer, were approved

new VICE CHANCELLOR.
Eugene Stevenson of Paterson
Secures the Prize.

Word was received at the Chancery
Chambers this morning that Eugene
Stevenson of Paterson had accepted the
appointment of Vice Chancellor, which
had been offered him by Chancellor Magic.
Ever since the question of the appoint
ment of additional Vice Chancellors was
broached a strong movement has been
under way to secure one of the appoint
ments for Paterson. The members of the
Passaic bar had been complaining for
some time of the arrangement which COM
PEELED them to go either to Newark or
Jersey City or even to Morristown to
find a Vice Chancellor every time they
wanted a little order. They argued that
as Paterson had grown to become a first
class city and the amount of legal busi-
ness which arose in Passaic was very
large they should have a judge of the
Court of Chancery in that city. The
Chancellor seems to have taken the same
view of the situation fer he has named a
Paterson man as soon as he was author
lied to do SO.
Eugene Stevenson is one of the ablest
lawyers of the New Jersey bar and his
appointment gives general satisfaction.
He is a Democrat of the safe, conserva-
tive kind and one of the leading citizens
of that section of the State. 1t is under
stood that ne will hold court in Paterson.
Mr.. Stevenson was appointed under the
Hudspeth act which provides for two
new Vice Chancellors. The other posi-
ton, it is generally conceded, is to be
held open until next January, when it
will be conferred upon Foster Voorhees,,
when he lays down the office of Governor.
The term of Vice Chancellor is seven
years and the salary is $1,000 per annum.

jurors at the trial of William Horn for
granddaughter, which occupied the atten-
ton OF the Court of General Sessions
Monday and yesterday was not satisfied
with the evidence adduced by counsel, but
visited the scene of the tragedy himself
and made inquiries among people living
there in regard to the case, the verdict of
guilty of assault and battery returned at
midnight last night, may be set aside by
Judge Blair.

suited IN Madden's death at the City

The evidence a6duced was to the effect
that the two men had quarrelled in Mad

finally Madden fell striking his head on
the curostone and fracturing his skull.

Police Jndge James j. Murphy, who prov

Blair would direct a verdict of acduittal,
and everyone believed such a result would
be quickly arrived at after the jury re-
tired at noon yesterday. Much surprise
was expressed when they failed TO come
into court until midnight last night, and
then returned a verdict of guilty of as
saut and battery
| This morning eleven of the twelve jur-
ors appeared at the Court House and
handed the following statement to Clerk
Dolan:-
I'VE, eleven of the jurors empanelled
to try tne case of manslaughter against
William Horn would respectfully beg to
state to your honor the following facts
and circumstances in correction Herewith
| as follows:-
I'm about twenty minutes after CONVEX
sing in the jury room we agreed upon a
verdict but one, the twelfth juror assert
ed that sooner than agree after much rea-
soning as to the evidence as adduced and
charged by your Honor he was not SUB
Ject to reason in any particular, and fur
ther that he admitted that he sought out
the neighborhood of the alleged crime and
| received evidence from hearsay as to this
case, and had it noted down and referred
to it several times. Altogether he acted
stubbornly and obstinately as to place
himself in the light of an inexorable
crank, thereby keeping us together from
the time of entrance to the jury room at
u Nj. yesterday.
"Signed-John McAtavey, foreman; John
Crosby, John Berger, John McDonough,
| Silas Opdyke, Thomas Nichols, Michael
Dosson, John Orr, Charles Smith, Patrick
McCabe and Myles McCarron.''
| Police Justice Murphy said this morn
| ing that if the verdict is not set aside
and sentence for assault and battery is
| imposed on Horn he would certainly APP
