The News of Carbonda1e.

spent Saturday in a breaker at the
lower end OF Carbondale; that he was
nearly frozen and to warm himself out
he started n big fire which thawed him
out in good shape. at made as big u
fire as the Northwest" the witness
swore Dresser told him.
Murty Meehan, the foreman ut the
Northwest, swore that Dresser was at
the head of the breaker on the night ii
burned down. He had n mine lamp on
his head, which was not lighted. Dres-
sen said he came after coal, and was
ordered away. Shortly after the break
er was discovered to be burning.
Dresser, when sworn, said he did
not leave the house that night until
after the breaker commenced to burn
His first knowledge of it was when he
observed the glare of the flames
against Dayson's house. His testi-
mony throughout was In contradiction
to the other witnesses and also differed
from what he said earlier in the day.
The authorities feel confident that 1t
was Dresser WHO fired both breakers
and that he also set fire to the repair
shops ut the Northwest which We're de-
stroyed one night just week before
the breaker burned.
Dresser was taken by Constable Ed
ward Neary. who got him in Archibald;
where he was arrested with several
trampS.

Big House at the Grand.

An audience that filed all but Il few
seats enjoyed the many good features
of THE Village Postmaster" at the
Grand last plight, The fact that there
was such large attendance following
the pastoral play of new years night
when "Our New Minister" was pro-
duced, showed that theatre -goers were
not surfeited with the character of
play or the two productions candor
compels one to say that our New
Minister" is better play: it has
greater merit, and teaches lesson
which 1.-The Village Postmaster" fails
TO do. When compared with "Our New
Minister the most that can be said Of
THE Village Postmaster" is that it
was highly enjoyable.
The rain scene and the threshing
machine in operation gave decided
touch of realism to the piece.
AS 10 the cast it was generally ac-
ceptable, Miss Angela Russell, the tall
ented Scranton girl, won many admir-
ers by her cleverness.

GLASS TABLE WARE.
Competition Among Manufacturers
to Get the Best Designers.

to Get the Best Designers.
From the Pittsburg Post
In spite of the assurances among the
tableware glass manufacturers that an
agreement has been secured to prevent
a price war after January |, Il good
many of the independent concerns are
looking forward to a lively season in
1902. The meeting of the jobberS during
the present week in this city and the
partial exhibit of new designs of glass
ware by a number of the manufuctur-
ers resulted in the placing OF some large
orders. Tt is claimed they We're placed
at prices below what has been con-
sidered the standard. There is Il NUT
tering of discomfort and a threat of
breaking away from rules in force
The chief point gained by the indie
pendent concerns thus far, according
to some of the iobbers. has been their
designing effects. The trade seems to
have drifted away from the standard
of greatest economy in production, to
the best designing for its stronghold
New designing departments have been
established in nearly all the plants, and
special efforts have been made to outdo
each competitor.
one Oh the manufacturers SAID the
race among the trade for fine designers
and art decorators has been so keen
that the best of these had been stolen
from one factory by another. until
scarcely one old hand retains his po-
sition for any length of time.
Owing to this condition of affairs. it
is said that the larger companies have
been forced to reorganize their depart
ments considerably. The National
Glass company, which inaugurated the
competitive design contest and offered
prizes last year for the best art shown
by designers, laid the foundation for
the present struggle for supremacy, and
all of the other concerns have followed
the big concern with enthusiasm. The
result of the designers work is to be
exhibited at the general display of all
manufacturers, which takes place here
in January.

SOLDIER" in TROUBLE.

the theft of Il horse and buggy from

of the thief as William a. Clark ana
furnished description that lifted tn
soldier lad who was enjoying himsa
i'm this city. Yesterday morning the
chief decided on Clark's arrest and
placed him in Jail pending news from
the authorities at Hamburg.

atives here. but thought the town de-
sirable for rest. He formed several
acquaintances among the young men
OF the town who We're exceedingly hos
Ditable to him. Clark denied that he
intended to open Il recruiting Office in
this city and that he made representa-
lions of this sort in order to get credit
or as a means of security for his board.
Chief McAndreW, however. has strong
evidence that Clark made these rep
reSentationS and he has evidence. also
that the soldier lad used his uniform
to get all the credit and attention he
could. Clark admitted that he would
have to stand for these things if they
could be proven.
