Rats Have Full Sway.

The slaughter of dogs and cats which
was started when the smallpox broke out
in Plymouth, in order to prevent their
spreading the germs from house to
house, has resulted in very strange
dilemma. AS the dogs and cats have
been dispatched the rats have increas-
ed, until the town is overrun with a
horde of bold and daring rodents, whose
nightly visits to the pantries of every
household have caused unspeakable hor-
ror among the housewives.
In fact, the feminine contingent are
so alarmed that they are praying for the
advent of another "Pied Piper of Hame-
lin to drive the rats into the river. as
he did in olden times.
Meantime, in order to check the i'm
pending peril, the slaughter has been
discontinued by the health authorities
But the havoc has been wrought. the
shotgun of the quarantine officer has
done its work, and it is feared their
precautions are too late.
The mongrel ours whose yelps and
fights enlivened the streets and furnish
ed fun for many mischevious lads have
disappeared: only a few of the more
valuable dogs remain. Hundreds of
tabbies have crossed the river of eter-
nifty, the few survivors being zealously
guarded by the spinsters, who have de-
fed the quarantine shotgun.

Boiler Broke His Fall.

An amusing incident due to slippery
sidewalks occurred. on South Centre
street one day this week. A newly
married couple were making purchases
of household goods and among the lot
was a washboler of large dimensions,
which they apparently needed for i'm
mediate use and were taking 10 their
home
People on the street were suddenly
attracted by ringing thud. The man
had slipped, but being a quick thinker,
he shuf1ied his bundle to the rear when
he found himself falling and lit on the
sidewalk with the wash boiler between
him and the ice. He arose uninjured
and picked up the boiler, which had
Jared very badly, being almost fattened
by his weight.

LABOR'S ENEMY
IS ON TRIAL
Scranton Street Car Mana
ger Gave Brides.
How the Big Lackawanna
. Trolley Company Secured
the Right of Way Through
the County.

Frank Siliman, general manger of
the Scranton Railway Company. was
placed on trial yesterday to answer the
charge of bribery, growing out of the
securing of franchises for the extension
of the company's line through Old Forge
borough. His counsel made strong
effort TO quash the indictment, alleging
it was defective.
The alleged ofrense of bribery happen
ed nearly three years ago, and in one
particular instance says that each of
the ten councilman OF the borough receiv-
ed $500 on one occasion to influence
their votes
Judge Wheaton. of Luzerne, who is
specially presiding, overruled the motion
to quash, and the case went to trial,
great care being taken In the selection
OF a jury.
When the case was called for trial
last December the defense claimed in
ability to get fair trial because of the
street railway strike and secured CON
tinuance.
Attorney P. w. Gallagher, formerly
claim agent of the company, was the
chief witness against Slliman.
Gallagher said he was asked to handle
Councilman Munroe. The company
had agreed to give three of the five
borough councilmen $lOO as election ex-
penses, Gallagher said, but Munroe
wanted $500 and Silliman agreed to pay
after Gallagher had explained the situa-
tion to him. The ordinance failed to
pass, and with reference to what fol-
lowed Gallagher testified as follows:
when the ordinance failed of passage
Mr. Silliman sent me a note written with
blue pencil, and in it Mr.. Silliman
said: we will see four centuries before
we will relinquish our efforts. | asked
him il he meant by four centuries s4o0
a vote, and he said that was what he
meant. | handed the note back to him
aud remarked that | did not think it
would cost that much"
Gallagher said further that it was on
June 2S that he and Mr.. Silliman had
a talk and he told Mr.. Siliman that
it would take $500 to secure the passage
of the ordinance He said he prepared
voucher for that amount, which Mr..
Silliman approved. After the ordinance
passed finally Gallagher testified that
Councilmen Munroe, Stephens and Gal
lagher met him and he paid them the
money.
The case goes to the inrv today.
