Edward Scott, who boarded on Pike
street, is !: sprinter from way back.
"a runner from Runnervlle' is
what Alderman Morrison says he is,
and the alderman knows. for he saw
a remarkable display of SCOTS ability
in this direction yesterday afternoon.
Scott was taken before the alderman
on the charge of false pretenses pre-
ierred by d. Singer. from whom it was
alleged he procured Il suit of clothes
on the strength of bogus representa-
tions. Constable Martin Garden APP
pretended Scott yesterday and took
him before the alderman in the after
noon Scott took Il seat outside of the
railing, While the constable went in
search of MI Singer to appear against
the accused. The alderman turned
from the desk where he was busy with
some papers. and made suggestion
about the charges against Scott. The
latter when the alderman tinisht q,
quietly arose and sncaked To the door.
He made II noise at the threshold that
distorted the alderman and caused him
to look. lie shouted to Scott to come
back, the latter replying that he was
only going outside. In an instant, he
Was off ana down Eighth avenue like

In the meantime. Constable Garden,
who had not traversed Il half Il block,
was upprlsed of SCOTS exit and in
another instant he was pursuing the
fleeing bird, who was Wiplng his rect

behind him. AT the alley below River
street, Garden made Il turn hoping to

crossing of the Delaware " Hudson
Scott however, didn't take to the rall-
road. but continued on up the hill and
had no difficulty in eluding the con-
stable through the numerous puzzling
lanes on the West side.
Though Scott made Il lively dash, he
was becoming winded and but for the
circumstances that the constable turn
ed into the alley he would have over
taken his man.

before now, Mr.. Honesdale Hard Hitter,
but it's only this day that we recovered
from our humiliation of retiring to the

regret we had in taking our back seat
was that we met bunch of Honesdale

had worn holes in the seats, they had
been there so long. In the meantime,
we will wait with patience FOR the goods
that Honesdale say 1t has and knows
how to deliver.
