ltuddy yesterday afternoon.
Lazzar is employed at the Dodge
mine, and continued at work in order
to support his family. Several attempts
have been made to wreck his home.
and it has been necessary to have some
one on guard at night to insure safety
for the occupants.

Maple street. came to Lazzar's house,
broke a window and through 1t passed
Il quart bottle filled with powder, in
which three mine squibs were placed
and lighted.
The explosive was placed on Il table
inside the window. and was discovered
by La2zar. who aroused his nephew.
Mat Lazzar. and the latter, at the risk
of his life. succeeded in eXtinguishing
the lighted squibs before they eXplod

Seven people were in the house at
the time. and all their lives We're in

I'm constant fear of violence. Piznofski
was placed under arrest and at the
hearing it developed that he is already
under bail for previous similar offences.
He was held in $1,000 bail for his
appearance at court. Altogether. Piz-

Colonel Watres came to Scranton.
yesterday. and while here had inter-
views with number of attorneys con-
Cerning the powers of the militia in
the matter of anticipating trouble.
The colonel is satisfied that at the
Ridge. Sterrick Greek Grassy Island
and some other places there are men
OF anarchical tendencies who ncite
others to breaches of the peace and in
one instance that there is drilling going
on among foreign strikers. The colonel
does not believe it is necessary for him
and his men to wait for Il demonstra-
tion of lawlessness on the part of these
people before taking steps against
them. and proposes If the law is on
his side to do some preventative work.
THEY ARE NOT DREAMS.
That some of the reports along this
line which come to Colonel Watres are
not idle dreams was proven Sunday
when he sent Major Robling and two
companies of soldiers to search the
house of Guisseppi Paprllo at the
Ridge. 1t was reported to the colonel
that foreigners at the Ridge were drill
ing daily: that every man in that re-
gion owned a shot gun and that a large
consignment of ammunition had been
received by Paprllo. Sunday, Paprillo
was arrested while skulking about
Company LIS outpost. armed with a
shot gun and eight rounds of shells.
When his house was searched 1000
rounds of ammunition were discovered.
Joseph Paprillo, alias Giuseppe Pap
rillo. who was arrested at the Ridge,
Archibald, on Sunday. for attempting
to shoot soldier named William Hell
Ter, was held in $1,000 bail yesterday
by Alderman kassOn. Joseph Cassesse.
Of Lackawanna avenue, qualified as
his bondsman.
1t is remarkable and almost marvel
Gus that the Thirteenth regiment hos
pital has not as yet had a patient.
Some few men with Indigestion, or
something of that kind have been in
for few hours a time. but not one
of the four cots has yet had an occu-
pant for twelve hours at stretch.
Major Keller. the chief surgeon at
tributes the healthfulness OF the sold
iers to the fact that the camp is we'll
situated as regards hygiene: that the
water is good, and that the soldiers are
taking extra precautions because of the
bad weather. What is most remarkable
of all, in this regard, is that no soldier
has been doctored for cold.
The shower baths have been installed
and are now in working order. The
men can go into warm building, and
enjoy bath in warm water.
EIGHTH'S QUIET DAY.
The members of the Eighth regiment
spent another quiet day yesterday. re-
ceving no calls to suppress any disorder
and passed both morning and afternoon
in drills.
Colonel Hoffman was i'll during the
day and as consequence no further
action was taken in the case of the six
soldiers whom he claims We're unjustly
arrested by Chief of Police Cosgrove
last Friday night. A formal demand
for the money paid over by the men
Will be made today and the arrest of
the chief will probably follow The
court martial of the soldiers for break
ing through the guard line was also
put off till today.
The Eighth regiment had its fourth
call for duty since II has been camped
in this region on Sunday night when
Sheriff Schadt requested that COM
pany be sent to the Lawrence cOlliery
of the I.ehigh Valley company which
is just barely within this county.
TWO Italian women had arrived in
