Alex. Btroff with his wife and year old babe were riding down Lackawanna avenue hill behind a spirited horse, which became frightened at the stone crusher which is standing near Ninth street. The horse dashed down the hill aoross the railroad track9, at a fearful pace. The animal caught the bit between his teeth and became unmanag able. When the switch near Seventh stroot Was reached the wheels got in the grooved track and followed them until the east end of the Dridge was reaohed where the sharp curve overthrew the buirgy and dashed the occupants to the hard pavement.

The woman and child escaped with but slight Injuries; the baby received a slight cut over the eye, while the woman was scratched about the face. The man fell beneath the carriage when it was overturned and was dragged a considerable distance. The horse was stopped and Btroff was taken from beneath tne overturned carriage and carried into the St. Nicholas, where it was discovered that he was painfully injured. His head Was braised and gashed, his face was scratched and his wrist was severely cut.

I)r. Leet was summoned and dressed the wounds. The horse and carriage belonged to Stroff, who lives at Bull's Head. He purchased the horse about a week aeo and was not aware of his spirited nature. The carriage lav all afternoon in front of the St.

What could have been a serious accident occurred yesterday afternoon on the hill north of the old street car barn on the Cross' town Electric line.

Car No. 6, with eighty passongers on board was descending the steep bill at a rapid rate. As the car proceeded it gained increased mo mentum, and whon about half way down it had attained au onormous speed. The mo torman tugged at the brake, but, on account of some difficulty with the chain, was unable to slacken the speed. He then endeav ored to reverse the machinery, but to his amazement found the power shut off.

The rapid speed had thrown the trolly from the wire ana tnere was no way possible now of stopping the car. It dashed on at lightning speed until it struck the sharp curve at the foot of the hill. Here it loft the track and ran along the soft earth until it collided with a tree about fifty feet from the tract. The thoroughly frightened passengers drew a breath of relief when they found themselves safe although experiencing a bad shaking up. None of the passengers complained of having received the slight injury, not even a soratoh or bruise.

This is mainly due to tho soft earth impeding the progress of the car just before It struck the tree. The car was but slightly damaged. Business Notice.l Buy your Fourth of July shoes of A. C. Nettleton, 411 Lackawanna avenuo.

YOUNG PEOPLE'S DAY. Interesting Services at the l'enn Avenue Baptist Church. Yesterday's services at this church were of great interest, not only to the membership of the ohurch but to all who attend the house of worship. The last Sunday in June is set apart each year for special services and designated as "Young People's Duy." There were large congregations at each of the three services, that of tbe evening crowding the ohuroh to overflowing and an excellent printed ordor of services was carried, out The pastor, Kev. Mr.

Partridge, preached in tne morning from prov. 4.23: "Keep thv umit, wiiu mi ior out oi it are tne issues of lifo," and in the evening from Acts zi.ia, xaui answered, wnat mean yo to weep and to break mine heart; for I am ready, not to be bound only, bu talas to die Jerusalem ior tne name of the Lord, Jesus." Both the sormons woro addressed specially iif juuus I'Dupiei, nuu were given witn great earnestness. The exposition. illustration and application of the thought developed in connection with these texts was beautiful indeed and. most encouraging to the young, and may uo ufunneu no nuiuuK me reverend gentleman best efforls in the Penn avenue Church pulpit, i The musio at both services was led by the Young People's Choir of fifty young people from the church and bible school, under ihe direction of Mr.

11. A. Browning, as chorister, and Miss Graoeugals at tho organ. The anthems were exoellontly sung and reflected oredit utton the choir, and especially so, considering that only one week was given them for preparation. Iu the afternoon tho bible school held' extra exercises Hu the audienco room und a well prepared programme was followed.

The Superintendent, Mr. Luther Keller, presided, assisted by Dr. D. A. Capwell and Mr.

L. Post. The singing by the school, under the dlreotlon of Mr. Whittemore, was from the new book recently placed in the school, and was, If possible, a little in advance of any formor oocasion. Indeed the singing of this school is at all times an inspiration.

In the programme there wnro readings by Miss Margaret Finley; the Golden Text of the last quarter by Miss Gortle Long: reoltationi by Miss Lillian Sherman, and Mr. Julian DeGraw, a duet by Misses Annie and Grace Itose, and several musical selections by the Primary Department. All these numbors were appropriate and in hnr mony with the splflt ot the dav. Hon. L.

Amor man, formerly superintendent of tbe school, gave a splendid talk, followed by the pastor in a few short and happy remarks, full of encouragement and goou cheer to all connected In any way with this department of Christian work, which is one of the greatest Importance.

THE SCR ANTON REPUBLICAN, MONDAY MORNING, JUNE 30, 1890. THE PATTISONJUNDAY, EX GOVEBNOK'S MEN OWN SCRANTON FOB A PERIOD. MATTERS MAY CHANGE TO DAY. Wallace Boomers Slow to Arrive A New Set of Delegates in tlm Field in Scranton Chat With Ex Postmaster Ilarrity Convention Notes and Personals. When the Pattison Democrats of this clty, and the few from abroad, rolled out of bed yesterday morning and pinched themselves to see that they were alive, they were eon fronted by a surprise in the shape of a report in the Free Press that a new set a new set of delegates were in the field.

The report read as follows: "A meeting of the representative committee of the city of Soranton was held at Whyte's Hotel last evening. There were nineteen of the twenty one members of the oommlttee present. They transacted general business of tbe committee, and elected John Shea and Edward F. Blewi tt delegates to the State. convention for the Second Itepresentative district, and Thomas O'Boyle and F.

M. Vundling delegates to represent the First district in tbe State oonveniion. The oommittee have their individual preferences for the candidates for Governor, but as the State convention is held In this city we want to receive all delegations respectfully and kindly.and show no partiality to any one. The delegates are not instructed for any individual candidate, but to vote for those they deem best." When this had been thoroughly digested, there was a smile of exultation oh the faces of the Wallace men, but the brow of tho Pattison howler was as dark as a thunder storm. It was understood at once that the "indi vidual preference" of the delegates referred above, were Wallaceward.

It was the old light made in Ihe Lackawanna County Committee a few mouths ago over again. The Wallace men were determined to follow up their defeat in the the committee and to throw themselves upon the mercy of the con venuoii, in tne nope that mat would be dominated by the partisans of the Clearfield statesman. A few inquiries made b'v a representative of ihe MEPCBLiCAji anions: the local Democratio workers, revealed another surprise. No one seemed to know anything about this rnvsteri ous visit at Councilman Flanaghan's hostlery oeyoua wnat tnoy naa neard ana read. Chairman Vandlinc said that the news of bis selection as a delegate was a surprise to him.

He knew nothing of the meeting. Citv Engineer Blewitt winked knon ingly and said that he would surely get his seat. When pressed with interrogations, he contented himself with answering, "Do you think that we would nave done It if we nadn known what we were doing?" and with that the ou nous newspaper man had to be content. Councilman Flanaghan said that he knew tnatsuoh a meeting really took place at his hotel. He had heard nothing of it before.

Secretary Sando had heard rumors on tho street that the meeting was to be held, but that was all tbe information ho had. The quest was then given uo in disgust. It is stated that the men who met on Satur day evening were tbe members of the old representative committee which controlled matters before the reapportionment. It re mains to be seen what attention will be given ineir nominees Dy tuo committee on contested scats. Tbe following amendments to the rules of the Democratic party were adopted at the uigior convention held in Harnsburg on August 28, 1888, and will be quoted in the aisprovat oi tne contests, said to number forty nine iu nil, which will come before luesday gathering.

"When a delegate is selected by any other duly authorized body than the County Commit tee, iii snati do necessary ior nun 10 procure, addition to the foregoing (an ordinary certificate), and It shall be the duty of the County Committee to furnish a certificate in duplicate, executed and sworn to by the officers, or a majority of mam, ol ine uounty tjommittoR, Deiore notary public, magistrate, or justice of the peace, certi lying that to the bestol tbeh' information, knowledge and belief, such delegate was fairly, regu imiy uu uuiy elected according to ine rules or the Demix ratic narty. When such delecate is selected by the county Committee the certificate of election must also state that the delegate was seiectea Dy tne county committee, which is rec ognizeu as legal ana regular by the state ten tral Committee." "Any person desirine to contest the seat oft delegate shall bo requited to give notice, iu writing, of such Intention, together with the grounds of content, to the chairman of the State central committoe, within ten days Of the date on wuicn tne election was neld; and such person Burnt, upon giviug nonce, ue nccorueu au opportunity of havlug his claims heard by the Com mittee ou Credentials when appointed by the uoiivouuon. The above printed extracts from party rules would seem to dispose of these contests, and also that of Asa A. Nichols in the Third district. Notification was not given Chairman Kisner within ten days following the election.

So the friends of Mr. Pattison claim. PATTISOM CHIEFTAINS AHJUVE. Chairman Donnelly of the Philadelphia City Committee, Postmaster Herritv. and several others, reaohed the oity a few minutes before twelve o'clock Saturday night and were given a cordial welcome.

They were accompanied by George J. Brennan, of the Philadelphia Inquirer, the first visiting newspaper man to roach the scene ot battle. Mr. Brennan is fresh from the mighty crowds of Harrisburg which he wrote up graDhlcallv and entertainingly for his able and pushing papor. Chairman Donnolly is one of Mr.

Pattison's chieftains and talks nothing else but the chances of the ex Governor. "What do you think of Mr. Pattison's prospects?" was asked by a Kepcdlican man yesterday. "Why, he will be nominated, of course," ne nnswerea. "You seem pretty sure of that." "Well," said Mr.

Donnelly with great earnestness, "You are sure the eun is shining, aren't you "Certainly." 'Well, I am just that certain that Mr. Pattison will be the nominee oi tho bcranton convention." EX POSTMASTER HAHB1TV. Later In the day a reporter for The Republican called on ex rostmaster William T. Harrity at his suit of rooms lu the Westminster. Mr.

Harrltv is the leader of tlm Tattison delegation from ihe Quaker City and uue oi ins ciusestana most iaitniui adherents, lie is a man of commanding nirure, band some In feature and of most pleasing and gentlemanly address. Decidedly lntellootual, his questions and answers proved him to bo a close student of politics, and very familiar with all the features of tbe Pattison campaign. "What do you think of Mr. Pattison's chance," the reporter asked. "I think be will be nominated," Mr.

Harrlty said. "I think that we have a large majority of the instructed delegates, and that we have a fair proportion of the delegates who will come unlustructed. It is my impression that those who have not yut decided who to vote for will bo influenced toward Mr. Pattison when they discovor that the tide is settling in his direction." "You nre quite positive." "We think that we have roason to be. Wo ore very frank in our claims and have poiuted out in the public print where we are to got our delegates lrom.

In nn nun hm there been An assertion that we have falsified tho figures. There cannot be, for we have not done so. On the other hand the Wallaoe claims are general and accompanied by no figures. They deny that our olaims are oor reot but they present no proof to show that they are not. Of course thev dare nnt admit that we have fuirly defeated them, else one iiuii tne ueiegates Who now favor thnm would scramble in our dlreotlon in exceeding haste to get in out ol the wet." "Who will place Pattison before the "That we have not decided.

"Have you any Idea who your faotlon will favor tor chairman?" "I cannot positively state. We will be sat islled with any fair representative matt in tho party. Senator Eckley 11. Coxe would not oe oojflotioimblb to us. He is fair and claims to have no preferences as between Wallace und Pattison.

We will be satisfied with auy man who does his full duly." "May not the chairman, by his selection of the Committee on Contested beats, defeat you in tbe convention?" "Ko, tie cannot do that under our party rule. They provide that the oommittee shall be selected, one from each Senatorial district by tbe delegate from the dristriot' Mr. Harrlty thinks that th.e ten delegates pledged to lilucK will eventually throw their strength to Pattison. Between the two men. Mr.

Black's choice would be the ex Goy ernor. WHAT WALLACE MBIT SAT. Everything was Pattison about the olty yesterday and the Wallace men were not happy. They were not despondent however. "I will admit," one of them remarked, mat it loots very mucn nice 1'atttson now but it will not to morrow evening when the wanace men oegin to arrive.

The t'attison leaders were fortunate in reachiug here first with their little boom. To morrow a hull dozen representative Demoorats will be on from Philadelphia to show that Pattison does not own tnat town. HOW PHILADELPHIA WILL VOTE. It is only too well known that the Phila delphia delegation, of delegates is not a unit tor any man. claims that he can count upon two thirds of them but this Is denied by the Wallace men who siiy that at least twenty live oi them have pledged them selves to tne ex aenator.

CONVENTION NOTES. Pattison will have his headquarter in par lors i ana at tne Westminster. A majority of the delegates are expected to arrive tnis atternoon ana evening. Chairman Eisner Is not jn good health and rested the greater part of yesterday. The indications now are that there will not be as many visiting clubs as were expected.

A delegation of two hurdred are expected from Clearfield to day to howl for Senator Wallaoe. ine uentrai Democratic Club kept open house yesterday and entertained a number of tne visitors. With Postmaster Herrlty eame Michael Magee and George Thomson, both of the (Junker city.

Bryant, an attache of his office, arrived yesteruay. Ihe Pattison and Wallace factions have nearly agreed upon Eckley B.

Coxe, of Drif ton, for temporary chairman. No one has been prominently mentioned for the permanent chairmanship. All of the arrivals yet seen have expressed delight that the convention Is to be held in Scranton instead of Harrisburg. The city on the Susquehanna does not seem to be extraordinarily popular. The local committee hopes that the people ui ourauton win appreciate tne occasion and will decorate properly, regardless of politics.

The reception of the delegates has been made a purely non pan izan affair. Wallace and Pattison are both expected this afternoou. So are Eckley B. Coxe, Hon. Chauucey F.

Black, Wailiam L. Scott, ex Chairman Hensel, ex Congressman Sowden, Hon. llichard Vaux, the successor of Samuel J. Randall, Bobert Emmet Wright and a iiusi oi outers. Arrangements which Chairman Kisner declares nre imperative will rob the newspaper boys of some of the space assigned them.

Miss Hughes is an ancient maiden who Is "a little oft," partially deranged In faot. She talks like a windmill, looks like a scare crow, and dresses in a decidedly old fashioned style. When called to testify in her own defense she told an incoherent story of her alleged wrongs. claiming that Bond had attempted to poison ber by putting Paris Green in her well, and alleging other abuses. Bond's explanation was a very simple one.

She bits be.iu a great annoyance for years.aud among other things keeps three savage dogs which sne will sometimes set upon onildren as they pass by. Recently she assaulted Bond with a huge Stone.

"Don't be winking at me sir, tho court sternly said and Bond looked freightened. Judge Connolly was puzzled what to do with the wo man. It was, he said, a snag. Ha finally de cided to hold her in bail to keep the peace to ward uouu ior three months. Business Motice.1 ON THE FOURTH.
