NON SUIT GRANTED City Declared Not Responsible for the Accident to Sears Xo Verdict in Cow Case. JST BAPIDLY DISPOSED OF A non suit was granted yesterday in the trespass suit in which C. H. Sears seeks to recover from the city of Scran ton damages for injuries received by him on West Market street, in June, 1898. The hearing was resumed before Judge Albright.

Sears was driving a team along the street when the horses became frightened at a steam road roller, which was buing operated by employes of the city. The horses became unmanageable and ran ayay, throwing Sears out of the wagon. His right shoulder and arm were permanently injured and he received other i serious injuries. The city contends that its employes were guilty of no negligence in operating the roller at the time of the accident, the roller was standing on the highway when Sears' team passed by, and that nothing was done that should have been avoided. At the close of the plaintiffs case.

City Solicitor Vosburg moved for a nonsuit, for the reason that no negligence was shown upon the part of the city, and that the plaintiff was guilty of contributory negligence. The court sustained both of these reasons and granted a compulsory non suit. OVER SALE OF COW. The case instituted by Richard Robinson asrainst C. W.

Dean was given to a jury yesterday afternoon, before Judge Kelly. The suit grew out of the sale of a cow, which the purchaser alleged was misrepresented. C. H. Soper, appeared for the plaintiff and Attorney R.

H. Holgate repre sented the defendant. The jury will render a verdict this morning. No other cases were ready for trial before Judge Kelly and court adjourned early in the afternoon until this morning. A verdict in favor of the plaintiff for $187.90 was taken in the case of Wary E.

Lynch against Celia Gillespie. The suit was brought to recover a balance due on a book account for groceries sold to the defendant. The defendant did not appear and was not represented by counsel. BEFORE JUDGE ALBRIGHT. The Peck Lumber Manufacturing company were the plaintiffs in a case placed on trial before Judge Albright, wherein Horace B.

Smith, of Blakely, was the defendant. The plaintiffs alleged that Smith owes them 118.10 for lumber and materials furnished to him in the erection of a house in Blakely. The suit was brought upon a mechanics lion filed against the building. The lumber was ordered by Morgan R. Thomas, who, the plaintiffs alleged, was the contractor who constructed the building, and that the material was furnished on the credit of the building.

Smith denied that Thomas was employed by him as a contractor, and contended that the lumber was ordered by Thomas'on his own responsibility, and. therefore, Smith alleges Thomas is liable for the payment of the material. The case was given to the jury during the afternoon. Attorneys Alworth and Olver represented the plaintiff and Attorney J. J.

O'Malley appeared for Smith. CASES SETTLED. The cases of J. R. Murphy against the Scranton Railway company and Vito Petrello against the Scranton Railway company were settled out of court.

The suit brought by the Green Ridge Lumber company against Collins Brennan was continued until the June term. THEATRICAL Haverly's Minstrels. A large and appreciative audience enjoyed the performance given at the Lyceum last night by Haverly's Mastodon minstrels. The star of the company is George Wilson, who thoroughly drsprves the flattering notices bestowed upon him by the press. His monologue work is superb and repeated encores were demanded.

Excellent solos were also given by Eddie Mazier. Fred Gladdish. Dan Allman and Charles H. Wesley. The company is made up of clover talent, is well balanced and gives a tirst class, up to date programme.

Tim iirpliy. At the Lyceum to morrow night Mr. Tim "Murphy will present "A Bachelor Romance" for the lirst time in this city. Mr. Murphy's work 're is well known and appreciated, and his appearance as David Holmes has been looked forward to with a groat deal of interest.

It Is said that he plays the part of the world weary monk of letters in an original way, and makes of it a touching, tender character. Miss Dorothv Shorrod as Sylvia, the ward, is commended everywhere for both her bsauty and this new demonstration of her broadening powers. The Sol Smith Russell company supports Mr. Murphy this Friday Night Marie Dressier has caught on as a star and had caught it most emphatically w'th "Miss Prinnt," which conies to the Lyceum theater next Friday night, it la just the sort of a show mar one is a chaser of the blues. Miss Dressier is really a public benefactor, for a comedienne that is able to cheer the multitude as she does Is nothing short of that, Hhe has been seen here in many a success in the past, but In nothing thai could compare with "Miss Prinnt." She is a "good fellow." the programme tells one, but that does not begin to give one an Idea of what she does in the course of the piny.

She springs jokes innumerably; she sing. i clever ana catchy songs, she dances with It's a Short Road from a cough to consumption.

Next Saturday afternoon and night will be a gala night at the Lyceum when "The Belle of New York" blossoms into view. Glorious is she in new finery, new scenery, and with a battalion of new comers in the cast. She is practically the same invigor ator. blithesome, rollicking "Belle" that captivated the country two seasons ago, and then crossed over to London to play havoc with the scores of nobility, again proving it to be a fact that we Americans are beginning to do things as this better than they do themselves.

"The Belle" will hold the boards for one matinee and night at the Lyceum, but whether the house can accommodate the multitude that will seek an entrance to the performance, is a. problematical theory. Beulah Dodge is the beautiful, demure Salvation Army lassie, and is more debonair than ever. As the sleeping, flirting little ParisK nne. Mae Sailor will be seen to excellent advantage.

Wills Bros. The Wills Brothers continue to draw large crowds to the Academy of Music to witness their farce comedies; Yesterday afternoon "The Two Old Cronies" was repeated, and last evening their new comedy "In Atlantic City" was the attraction, both plays pleased immensely. This afternoon "In Atlantic City" will be repeated and to night "Bosom Friends" will be offered as the drawing card. "Tbo Tide of Life." Blood will tell. This is well illustrated in "The Tide of Life," the realistic drama to be produced at the Academy of Music next Thursday.

Friday and Saturday. A girl is stolen from a luxurious home when a child, and made to consort with thieves and rascals of all kinds. But she remains pure and honest through it all, and when she is restored to her parent in the last act he has no reason to be ashamed of her. The dramatist had no occasion to depart from real life in showing this, for it is a principle exemplified in the world at large every day. VAUGIIAN BILL PKOTEST, Governor Stone Assured the Local Committee That he will Give a Hearing'.

Rev. James McLeod, D. and Attorney Charles E. Daniels, who represent the local committee on the protest against the Vaughan bill, returned from Harrisburg last night. In view of the probability, if not certainty, that the bill will pass the House this week and that the protest to the representatives would be unavailing, they secured an audience with the governor and Attorney General Elkin and were promised a hearing before the governor took final action on the measure.

Governor Stone assured the committee that he would send ample notice of the time when he would be ready to hear the protests. It is expected that the bill will pass final reading in the House tomorrow. The governor has 10 days in which to take action and he incidentally remarked to Dr. McLeod and Mr. Daniels that he saw no reason why he should be in a hurry to dispose of the matter.

Attorney General Elkin will be present at the hearing to advise the governor as to arguments that are to be made regarding the constitutionality of the bill. LACKAWANNA BOARD. The following runs are ordered by the Lackawanna board for to day: WILD CATS EAST. a. m.

THE SCRASTON KErUBLlCAN. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 27, 1901. GARBONDALE. The last of the series of organ recitals to be held in Trinity church was given last evening. It was under the direction of Prof.

Hadyn Evans, assisted by Mrs. Brundage and Mr. Wat kins, of Scranton. It was a very pleasing concert. The proceeds of the course of recitals will be added to the organ fund.

There has been a large attendance at all of the entertainments and the enterprise has proved to be most successful. A MOCK TRIAL. The High school literary society held one of the most interesting entertainments of the year last evening. A special feature of the meeting was a "Mock Trial." The judge attorneys and a jury of girls, together with the prisoner and witnesses had been preparing for the event for some time past and the trial was very cieverly acted. THINK DEMANDS WILL BE GIVEN.

As noted in The Republican on Monday, the employes of the D. H. locomotive shops refused to do any night work last week without a guarantee from the master mechanic of "time and a third" for all over time. A meeting of the master mechanic and the foremen of the several departments was held Monday noon in the Main street office, but no inkling of its result has been given out. The men, however, confidently expect that their demands will be granted, as at present there is a great deal of work to be done.

OUT WITH THE BOYS. A farmer named Wells, from Clifford, was taken before Mayor Kilpatrick yesterday morning after spending the night in the city jail. He was run in by Officer McAndrew for raising a disturbance on Main street. He seemed to be a big, good natured fellow, and as he was very humble and had no money, the mayor was lenient and discharged him. Wells has been in town for several days and in that time has been relieved, he says, of his cash and a gold watch valued at over $25.

Among his escapades was a visit to Jack Jones in Simpson, and he and three local male toughs and one female tough returned to the city in a barouche. It was during this hilarious ride that he thinks his watch was taken. He says that next time he fills up on Carbondale grog he will be careful of the company he keeps. MAY BE POSTPONED. The fair and firemen's reception of Cottage Hose company, which is scheduled to open in the Burke building on April 15, will in all probability be postponed until later.

A mission which will last two weeks, will open in St. Rose's church, on April 14, and the firemen think that the attendance at their fair would be small on that account. DOGS BEING POISONED. In their efforts to abate the dog nuisance, some over zealous citizen has been poisoning animals with a free hand In the vicinity of River street, and several valuable dogs have been done away with, in addition to a few worthless curs. John Kirkwood lost two fine hounds and J.

J. Simpson lost a valuable blooded dog 1 ast week. There are entirely too many dogs about the streets, but there should be some way of ridding the city of them without having people resort to poisoning the animals. Constable Moran was obliged to shoot a mad dog, on Main street, Monday afternoon. TO PROTECT THEIR MILLS.

The slowness with which the city councils took up the matter of allowing the owners of the Klotz silk mill to connect with the firm alarm system has led the mill owners to seek other means of protection. To that end proposals are being received for the erection of a water tower, which will have a large storage tank and a pipe from it, which will be automatically controlled. This, it is thought, will furnish sufficient protection for both the Klotz and Empire mills. BRIEF NEWS NOTES. The funeral of the late Patrick C.
