PETER SMITH FOUND
GUILTY OF AN ASSAULT

Peter Smith was found guilty of
assaulting Arnold Thomas with a
deadly weapon by the jury before
which he was tried in the circuit
court yesterday afternoon. Smith, it
seems, struck Thomas with a club in
fight in Moline. Conviction cannot
carry with it more than a Jail sen
tence.
This morning James Gillapp was
sentenced on his conviction for cru
city. Judge Gest imposed a fine of
800 with the costs, amounting to
more than half as much, to be work
ed out on the stone pile at the rate
of $3.50 day.
Court adjourned at noon to resume
the criminal business Monday after

FOUR MORE LISTS.
Five Additional Entries in The
Tribune's Junior Education
al Contest.

Several additional lists of words have
been received from contestants in The
Tribune's Junior Educational Contest
since Thursday morning. These are the
names of the authors of the lists:
Ida Kibler, 624 Cedar avenue.
Daisy Felts, 737 Lee court
William Chandler. iii Linden street.
Philip II. Seamans, Factoryville.
Gladys Reese, 80 Washington street,
Carbondale.
There are three more weeks left for
the nimble witted young people OF
Northeastern Pennsylvania to try for
one of the twenty cash presents offered
to those who make the largest number
Of words out of the phrase "The Home
PAPER"
There is plenty of opportunity left for
any of those who may decide to try at
any time. The first cash present, $40 in
gold, is still unwon and it may be that
some Of those who wait until the con-
test nears it's close may have more cor
rect and longer lists of words than
some Of those who hurried their work
at the beginning of the contest and
thereby overlooked some words that
are admissible.
taken place whether contractions of
words such as "e'er'' and "o'er," and
prefiXes and suffiXes are admissible
under the rules. The best advice that
can be given on this subject is that if
any contestant is in doubt about word
or prefix they should take chance and
write the words in their list. Each list
will be read over carefully, the wrong
words will be erased and the correct
words will be counted carefully. Con-
testants must not be surprised if some
OF the lists shrink while undergoing
this process, for errors may creep into
the most carefully prepared.
These Junior Educational Contests
afford a splendid opportunity for study
by the young people, teaching them the
correct spelling and the right meaning
OF many words they have been ignor-
ant of hitherto.

the other more prominent leaders OF
the organization spent nearly all day
yesterday and a considerable portion of
last night in conference at the Hotel
Jermyn with Attorney Clarence s. Dar-
row and Nelson Lloyd their represent
tatives before the arbitration commits
sion.
Mr.. Darrow, when seen last night,
said that the tabulated scales of wages
prepared by several of the big COM
panies for submission before the com-
mission have been received by the mine
workers and are being carefully gone
over and compared with the similar
schedules prepared by the latter.
He said that it has not yet been de-
cided who will be put on the stand
after the cross-eXamination of Rev.
Peter Roberts. by Attorney John II.
Lenahan, is concluded, but 1t is gener-
ally believed that District President
Nichols will be the man. His testi-
mony will deal with the details regard
ing existing conditions in this district,
which is the largest in the anthracite
field. He will probably be followed on
the stand by District Presidents Fahy
and Duffy.

good, and she came near doing it,"
That's lie, your honor" said Mrs,

the lamp at me and he knows he did
He beat me badly and he'd ought to
be sent up
Gerrity started to reply, but the mag

COUNCILS HAVE NO POWER.
Can't Reduce Sewer Assessment o
Order New One Made.

The sewers and drains committee of
common council was to have met last
night to consider the grievances of cer-
tain property owners living on Alder
street, who object to the alleged eX-
cessiveness of a sewer assessment made
against them, but no quorum was pres
ent.
The members in attendance waited
upon City Solicitor Watson after ad-
journment was taken and We're inform
ed by him that councils have no au-
thority to reduce the assessment or
order q new one made. This power
rests with court alone, he said, and the
only thing the objecting property own
ers can now do is to petition court for
IA new assessment. Their objections,
he said, should have been filed before
the report Of the viewers who made the
assessment was confirmed by court.

Mr. Beams Patent.

Mathew NJ. Beam, of Old Forge, has
secured, through D. b. Replogle, of this
city, a patent on non-refillable bottle.
The device is an ingenious one and it's
effectiveness is absolute.
For years there has been demand
for a bottle that is non-refillable, and
in this invention it would seem that
Mr.. Beam has struck responsive
chord. 1t will be a boon to distillers
and manufacturers who have been
greatly annoyed by irresponsible par
ties refilling their bottles with goods
OF an inferior grade. -

Alleged Discrimination.

1t was learned yesterday that an inn
portant point to be brought to the at
tention OF the commission Is the alleged
discrimination shown against a number
of men who have been refused employ
ment since operations were resumed.
District President Nichols claims
that in this district alone there are
about 1000 men who were employed at
various mines since before the strike
began. but who have been unable to
get their places back since it ended.
He claims that these men have been
blacklisted because they were aggres-
sive unionists.
The company officials. on the other
hand, contend that the number of men
who have been refused work is not as
large as the miners claim it is, and as
sert that the reason for not giving em-
ployment to those who have been re-
fused is that they We're actively en-
gagged in either open lawlessness, in
timidation or boycotting during the
progress of the strike.
The operators and their attorneys will
hold a meeting in this city Wednesday
or Thursday. at which they will decide
upon the manner in which their case
will be presented.

An Utter Falsehood.

In the New York American yester-
day one of the attorneys for the min
ers is quoted as having said, relative to
the calling off of the peace negotia-
tions that c. ID. Simpson, of this city,
had a conference with President Baer
land that Mr.. Baer then went before
the presidents of the coal roads and
told them some interesting news. They
were ready to act as he wanted them to
after they received this news. Further
more, Mr.. Watkins himself was in New
York at the same time. There will he
some startling developments when the
truth behind the move is brought out
before the Strike commission, and we
are determined that this shall be done.'
Mr.. Simpson yesterday said the
story was an utter falsehood and that
Mr.. Watkins was not in New York at
the time he was as stated by the man
who allowed himself to be interviewed
The settlement of the matter in dispute
outside of the commission had to be
abandoned, he said, because the inde-
pendent operators We're determined that
justice should be done them.
