"When London Sleeps," a melo drama along unconventional linrs, was produced to a large audience last evening at the Academy of Music, the matinee attendance being small. The play has iimuj iiiruiing situations ana was warmly applauded. In view of the fact that it is presented at popular prices, it must be said that it is a strong production, with scenic effects that are particularly noteworthy.

The cast is sufficiently strong to cany the story along nicely. Miss Vera De Xoie, a comely and attractive young lady is the heroine and her part requires her to walk a slack wire with a child upon her back, a dangerous feat that is most skilfully executed. The heroic role is well handled by Mr. Frederic. C.

II. Truesdell is a distinct success as the villain, and the shapely Miss Annie Bar clay is a most fascinating adventuress The child actress, little Lillie Havre, scored a pronounced hit. ine play is unconventional in that it present with vivid detail a scene in a London disorderly house, where lewd women appear in paint and scant at tire and chappies are popping cham pagne bottles and indulging in insipid speeches. Not an offensive word is spoken, however, but it remains to be seen whether it is profitable to present in jjuouv entiles representing a shade of life that one would not care to describe public print TAYLOR.

Early, E. FarrelL a THE SCBAXTON REPUBLICAN, TUESDAY MOKNING, SEPTEMBER 7, 1897. At lu0 o'cloca; Mr. Taylor formally opened the institute and addressed the teachers for a few momenta on the programme and what would be expected of them tn helping to carry it out. He then introduced Prof.

H. E. Cogswell of Blnghamton. who will conduct the musical exercises of the institute. The first speaker was Miss Anna Buckbee.

who gave an interesting talk on "Local History." in whicn sne urged the teachers to impress upon the pupils the necessity to know local history as well as of that of foreign countries and the general histories of the countries. Local history is quite as important as any other. DR. BATESOX PAPER. Pr.

J. C. Eateson of this city was introduced to the tfachers by Superintendent Taylor after the intermission, and read a paper on "Temperament as Related to Teaching." The child before birth lives because its mother does, but after. It lives because it has breath. What this Is that gives the life remains yet to be proved by science.

Temperament means an arrangement of the faculties. It is essential that the teacher has a knowledge of the temperament as well as of anatomy and physiology. The temperament is divided into three motive temperament, vital temperament, and mental temperament. The latter includes the mind and brain and constitutes the medium for thought. Every person has the three in combination, some being more prominent than others.

Dr. Bateson gave a description of each and showed how each can be detected in persons and in what persons each is most prominent. The effect of each temperament on the character was also plainly shown. When the mental is predominant and well developed the mind has control over the body, but when it is not devel oped the person is senerall dull of com prehension. It is not the number of children In a family that makes them valuable to the nation, but the kind and quality and the manner in which they are trained for their life work.

It is necessary to good mental work that the mind be supported by a good strong constitution. When a child at tends Sabbath school its moral brain is developed, and when in the day school the intellectual brain developed. The teacher should teach the child the dif ference between truth and untruthful ness. vice and virtue, temperance and intemperance. "This question is one which I hope you will all take an interest in and make it practical." The "Formation of Habit," was the subject of an address by Dr.

Benedict, formerly principal of the State Normal school at Edinboro, Pa. Dr. Benedict is a man of pleasant appearance and an interesting speaker. "I want in the beginning to say that the most important duty of a teacher is to see that her pupils have a chance to form such habits as will make them happy in their old age. While we may not always be able to define habit, yet we all know what it is, and that It costs a struggle to break off.

James says that habit is the immense fly wheel of society. We are all doomed to fight the battle of life according to the way in which we have been trained in our young days. There can be no mental work without a corresponding physical work, therefor when you discuss a mental action you must connect a physical action. The mind is dependent upon the nervous system for its organization, and all habits are controlled by the nervous system. Although persons disagree on the definition of habit, we all know that action becomes easy by ort being repeated.

Walking is hard and dangerous at first, but it finally becomes easy and natural. The man who thinks honestly and acts so becomes honest from habit. A man who meets his appointments regularly becomes punctual by habit. Rememfer that "what a man sows that shall he also TODAY'S PROGRAMME. The programme for today is as fol lows: T.

Whll Returning From tha Labor Day Parada Theodora Raymond' Life la Snuffed Out by Bullets Fired by Laverlo Abbate, and an Attempt on Mrs.

Raymond Results In the Dangerous Wounding of Frank Russo Aasaasln Arrested. At last evening one of the most cold blooded and atrocious tragedies ever committed in this county took place and, the life of Theodore Raymond was brought to an end by the bullets from a murderer's revolver. The nn derer is Saverlno AbbatV, better known as Charles Abbate. Not only did Abbate take the life of Raymond, but he coolly and deliberately made on attempt on his wife. Rosa Raymond, but his aim was bad and as result Frank Russo.

who stood by her side at the time, is now lying in a dangerous condition at the Lackawanna hospital suffering from a gaping bullet vound in the abdomen. MEN WERE DRUNK. The men were all drunk. Abbate. Raymond and two companions, Joe Ablate, brother of the murderer, and Sebastian par no.

were part nig iu the Labor day parade and when it was oer had tilled up on beer and bad vhiskey. which combination no doubt is resi onsible for the crime. The nit all live in a double house at 3li and o'ZO Schimpn's court. Just off Birch street, in the rear of Cedar avenue. Raymond and his family occupied one side of the house, and with him lived Russo and Sparisino.

On the other side together with other ltal ans ieided Abbate. The men were all the best of friends, ate, drank, ana practically uvea together. No words had ever passed between them and in the early after neon they all started out In good spirits and together. They went to the Stone Mason's union, all of them being members of that organization, and with them marched to the central city. Before the time for the parade the men had a few drinks.

After the parade thoy went with their fellow laborers to the South Side. They did not go directly home but instead they went off and indulged in a few more glasses of fire water. How, when, and where the quarrel began no one seems to know. It started evidently while the men were walking toward home. Residents on Birch street near Fittston avenue were attracted by the loud and boisterous chat tering of the men who were arguing something in their native tongue.

THE MURDER. When they reached the corner of Birch street and Cedar avenue, at the corner on which Dr. Kolb's house stands they attracted a crowd of men. No one knowing what the trouble was and seeing no signs of impending violence, they did not interfere, but they were horrified when suddenly and without warning they saw Abbate, who was walking a little in advance of Raymond, wheel about, extend his arm; the nickle on the revolver glistened but before anyone could make a move there was a flash of flame less than a foot away from Raymond's breast, and the latter uttering a groan fell pierced through the heart with a bullet. As he tottered and was about to fall two more reports rang out and two more leaden messengers of death entered his body, one in the right breast and another in the right lower limb.

The crime was witnessed by over a dozen persons. There was a rush for the man who made no attempt to flee at the time. John Wagner, Henry Rorick and George Rosar all siezed the man, but a short range view or the muzzle of the pistol which was poked into his face by Abbate mad Wagner let go. Rosar was pulled away by his children who was" afraid he would be shot too. Rorick, however, kept his hold and by persuading the man that he was goinng home with him succeeded in walking with him.

A SECOND CRIME. Abbate kept the smoliing revolver in his right hand and waited to Schimpff's court, where he turned in toward his house, the second from the corner. The house is lower than the alleyway and at the gate of her side of the house stood Russo and Mrs. Raymond, the latter holding her babe in her arms. As Abbate passel them he shifted the revolver to the left hand, the one nearest Mrs.

Raymond and before anyone suspected what his intentions were he pulled the trigger. The bullet was Intended for the breast of Mrs. Raymond, but by reason of his bad aim it entered the left sile of Russo's addomen and felled him. Seeing he had hit the wrong person the murderer tried to shoot the womanl but the revolver chambers were empty. He then walked into the house.

About five minutes elapsed between the murder and the second attempt. THE FIEND'S FLIGHT. By this time a tremendous crowd had gathered and among them was Officer Geschiedle. He went to Abbate's house, but the latter was notified of his approach, and as he entered the front door the murderer escaped by the rear. He was seen to go out and a shout announced his departure.

A good crowd was soon in pursuit. Competition Sale OR Beginning Wednesday, Sept. 1. Facts count. Those who have watched our progress in the past (while other houses have gone back) must know that there is but one cause for it.

SIEBECER The fugitive fled to the Lackawanna river. Jumped in and was soon on the Hyde Park side. Edward Conway and Patrick Rogan pursued hhn.

He sped across to Luxerne street, around the Oxford dump and finally into Ansley's lumber yard. This proved to be a trap. The men captured him In there. When he was cornered he again pulled the revolwr, hot before he could shoot the weapon was knocked from his hand and he was put under arrest. Constable oelkers, who had taken his horse and Joined In the chase, was soon on hand.

The prisoner was hustled Into the buggy and secured after a hard struggle. TRIED TO LYNCH HIM. Hevas taken back to the scene of the crime and here it was that swift retribution narrowly missed him, and he has the police to thank that he is now alive. Br the time the party arrived at the scene, a large force of officers was on an it Is well they were. No sooner had the man appeared than there were cries of "Lynch him!" and many of the men in the crowd made a rush for him, but the officers succeeded in keeping the crowd back while the prisoner was quickly hustled off to the central police station to aw ait a hearing before Mayor Bailey at 10:30 o'clock this morning.

Soon afterward Joe Abbate and Sparisino were arrested and also taken to the station. They will be wanted at least to appear as witnesses. CORONER AT WORK.
