A mild sensa tion was created In tho court room here last week by Judge Albright, of Allentown, who is presiding in place of Judge Craig, of Mauch Chunk. The lawyers were not pushing their cases to the satisfaction of Judge Albright, and apparently killing time for a pur pose. Judge Albright, after some de liberation, addressed the lawyers, say ing: "Gentlemen, I did not come here to talk to lawyers over the bar, but to try cases; so did the thlrtv-six Jury men. If the cases are not pushed and you gentlemen do not come forward I will non-suit you." The visiting Judge's plain words had a good effect upon the lawyers. LONG RUN FROM DEATH.

WILL IT COME TO THIS ? l'cdcstrliinsilliiktllnvo SomoHogmds for thn ltights of Riders. In the great time that is coming when events Bhall have reached the conclu sion to' which they are now rapidly trending, John Smith expects that the bright young men who write police court proceedings will put their stories about In this wny: "What's the charge, officer?' asked Judge Emperor, as a timid-looking old woman was escorted trembling to the bar of Justice. "This woman, your honor, was walk ing down Main street Without any bell. A young fellow on a wheel came mighty near running over her, and ho would likely have been killed If ho had GREAT WALL PAPER SALE. AVo aro going out of the Wall Paper business and our Qtock mus 1)0 closed out at once, as wo want tbo room for othtjr goods.

The poor woman began to cry, and the Judge softened a little as ho said: "I'm sorry, madam, but tho law Is Inexorable. No person can walkpn tho public streets without a. bell to warn the wheelman, The public safety re quires that no exceptions be mado I shall have to fine you $5." The woman paid the flne amid sobs and left tho court room. The next case was that of n, bluff, gray-whlskcred fat man, who was fuming with Indignation. He was ar rested last night for walking up Dela ware avenue without a lamp, In viola tion of tho ordinance that requires all pedestralns to carry lamps after dark. He had shown a disposition to resist the otllcers, and had spent the night storming In his cell. He was some what subdued now, and it took the Judge but a (cw minutes to learn the nature of the offense. "So you thought you were above the law, did you?' snorted his honor, with flne sarcasm. "Thought you were such an Important man that you could defy the ordinances of our city? I llko to get hold of such a fellow as you are. You're the kind that these laws were made to fit. Just because you happen to be too clumsy to ride a, wheel your self, you think you've got a right to Imperil the lives and limbs of all who do. Nice public-spirited man you arel You pay $15 flne or go to Jail for fifteen days, and don't give me any words about it, either, or I'll withdraw tho option of a flne. I'll teach you fellows to respect the rights of wheelmen." SHE KNEW ABOUT DOGS. Miss Jennie Cook, Who Claims lo Un derstand Hydrophobia Symptoms, Rescues a Terrier from Death. New York, June C Just as the the aters were out yesterday afternoon, a large fox terrier dashed across Broad way in front of the Herald Square theater. The dog turned In Its tracks and began to run around In a circle, yelping piteously. Peculiar action of a dog at once gave rise to the belief that the animal was mad. Leaving the neighborhood of the the ater, the dog raced backward and for ward and across Broadway from Thirty-fifth to Thirty-third street, and finally the men and boys who congre gate at Greeley square started In pur suit, crying, "Mad dog." This was suf Pclent to make every one who saw the animal believe he was really mad, and men and women Scattered In a fright. When tho excitement was at Its height, a tall, well-dressed woman, who was coming down Broadway, stopped and looked at the scurrying pedestrians and then at the dog. It darted across the street toward the place where the woman was standing, and as It reached the sidewalk she calmly stooped down quickly and seized it by the back of the necK and carried the now whining animal to the uptown elevated railroad station stairs. Those who had tied from the dog stared lit the woman in amn.f munt. All unconcerned, however, the b.'gan to pat he head of the terrier and speak to it affeot!onat'y Thi spec tacle of iv womaii fondling a maJ dog was such an extraordinary one that several hundred persons quickly gath ered. They attracted Policeman Hau ler, of the West Thirtieth street sta tion, who pushed his way through them and saw the woman still placidly car essing the dog. "Everybody seems to think this Jog is mad," she said with a laugh, "but I know all about dogs. I know from his cries that ho has evidently lost his master. No mad dog ever laces around In one spot the way I baw him do." By this time .the terrier had quieted down and was nestling close to Its new-found friend. Policeman Hauser made an investigation, and found the woman's theory of the cause of the dog's antics correct. The dog and his master had been separated when the owner boarded a cor. Tho woman, whose presence of mind saved the animal from being shot, said she was Miss Jennie Cook, of No. 318 Webt Fifty-ninth street. "The owner, of this dog can have him by calling at my residence," she said. "I have seen so many dogs killed In summer time without Just cause that I don't consider 'it any particular honor to have saved this teriler from a similar fate. When you get to know dogs you hum that really very few go mad, but are goaded Into n condi tion of hysteria by the behavior of a lot of senseless reoplu who would usu ally drle any human belnj crazy.'

'"rls evening Bishop Hoban ponti ficated at vespers and Mr. C-.nnty of the AVasnlngton university, preached the bermon. The present parish cf St. Leo the 'lieat, at Ashley, was formerly a pait of the parish of St. Mary's. Wilkrs linrre. The first meeting to conclder the question of forming a new parish was called by the Rev. Dennis O'Haran, rector of St. Mary's church, and was held In the school house on the after noon of Nov. 13, 1887. A week later Right Rev. William O'Hara, bishop of Scranton, visited Ashley with the nevs. O'Haran and Hoban to view the lots on Hartford and Manhattan streets, for which a contract had been made, and on Nov. 29 the Rev. M. J. Hoban, to whom was committed the charge of tne new parish, went to Wllkes-Barre to reside with Father O'Haran until a house should be pre pared for him In Ashley. On December 4, the second Sunday In Advent, Father O'Haran and the new pastor drove to Ashley. After having blessed the vestments and prepared an altar In the hall of the school house, a low mass was said by the pastor. Af ter communion Father O'Haran preached on the gospel of the day and closed by Introducing the new pastor to the congregation. On December 7 the Rev. M. J. Hoban went to reside In Ashley, occupying a house on the corner of Ashley and Ross streets. One of the rooms was arranged for a chapel and here morn ing muss was said and the sacraments administered until th temporary church on Hartford street was built. On Sundays mass was said In the school house until February 2, 15S8, when the temporary church on Hart ford street was occupied for the first time. Plans for a brick church 'C0xl30 feet were drawn by Mr. Fred Amsden. of Scranton. The contract for building was awarded to Mr. William O'Malley, of Wllkes-Barre. The cornerstone was laid on June 1, IS'jfl, by Bishop O'Hara, assisted by many priests and surround ed by four or Ave thousand people, many societies having come from Wllkes-Barre, Plttston, Nantlroke. etc. Tho basement having been made ready for occupation mass was said there for the first time on January 1, 1S91, and It was blessed by Bishop O'Hara, on February 1. The debt on the church being com paratively small, the congregation de cided to build a rectory on Manhattan street adjoining the church. Plans hav ing been drawn by Mr. Isaac Will- Hams, of Scranton, the contract for building was awarded to Michael Lynch, of Wllkes-Barre, In 1892. On January 26, 1893, the rector moved into the new house. The debt on both church and house having been gradually paid off, the con gregation decided to complete the main auditorium of the church and began the work In 1896. A large bell, 2,200 pounds, was procured from the Mo Shane Bell foundry and was blessed by the pastor (who had meanwhile been consecrated coadjutor bishop of the diocese of Scranton) on St. Leo's day, April 11. The marble altar was donated by the rector In memory of his father. After many disappointments the first mass was said In the new church on March 7, the first Sunday in Lent, 1897, WIFE AND MONEY GONE. Butler County Mining Ilnmlct Has nn Klopcmciit Sensation, Butler, June 6. The mining hamlet at Muddy Creek, ten mites north of here, has been stirred up by the report of a sensational elopement. George Belghley, a coal miner, who resldea near the mines, was awakened last night by one of tho children crying. He got up to see what was the- matter and found his wife missing. Belghley made an examination of the premises and found that $300 of his hard-earned savings were gone. C. D. Mason, a miner who lived alone in a shanty near the Belghley houso, was also missing. Belghley concluded that the pair had gone together, and ho came to Butler and swore out warrants for both. Ho was much broken up, but between his fits and grief remarked that ho did not care so much for the loss of his wife as he did for the J300. BRAVE COACHMAN QE0RQES. A Hero of I'nrls Disaster nnd III Decoration by tho Government. Paris, June 6. In the accounts of the terrible disaster which a second's care lessness brought about at the Bazaar de la Charlte tho story of tho bravo driver of an ordinary street cab who literally Dulled many people from the burning mass was prominent. The hose used for cleaning the carriages on the opposite stand was dragged across the street five or eight eternal minutes before the Arc engines arrived, and a comrade stood by playing this bit of water over the brave man whose cloths were on fire over and over again as he plunged Into the burning mass. There have been hundreds of medals of various sorts proven out to those who aided In saving the lives on this occas ion, but the minister of the Interior has pinned on the breast of the "cocher Georges" the Cross of the Legion of Honor, and this "enfant du peuple" has the right to wear on his coachman's coat that coveted bit of red ribbon. Even in republican France, however, a chevalier cab driver seems hardly fit ting, and, moreover, the man's right arm is seriously Injured: so the gov ernment has also wisely provided a berth for him. It was expected that one Cross of the Legion of Honor would be bestowed, for several distinguished Frenchmen had Informed the government that their individual decorations were at the state's disposal. This recalls an Inci dent In the Opera Comlque fire of ten years aso, when one of the ministers took his own buttons from his coat to decorate a dving fireman. The Russian government has given a graceful proof of Its friendship by sending seven medals, which are not as yet bestowed, and the young footman who was brave enough to save his mis tress' life and cool-headed enough to protect her from Injury by wrapping a cart of her clothing over her head as he carried her out has received from the family se served since the nice sum of $20,000, a fortune indeed In France.
