Thomas Deerfield, who gave his residence as Avoca, was arrested last evening shortly before 6 o'clock, charged with the theft of an overcoat from the store of Shalnlck Bros., on North Main stroet. Deerfield saw a coat on a clothing dummy that seemed just to suit him and when he thought no one was looking he took it. Mr. Shalnlck was notified of the theft by a witness of It and he lost no time in following Deerfield. He found him with the coat near the Sinclair House. He took the coat and then handed the man over to Officer I'endergast. Effort Mark Twain's Views on The council of the borough of Duryea at a meeting last evening, passed a resolution ordering the borough attorney, W. H. Gillespie, to apply to the coiirt to have the office of tax collector of the borough, now held by 'SqtJlre Gllboy, declared vacant. The cause of the resolution Is the alleged failure of the tax collector to comply with several provisions of the law governing the office. 'Squire Gilboy, It is alleged has not made a complete return of the taxes of 1904 and, In addition, has failed to present a bond for the collection of taxes of 1905 and, therefore, the duplicate has not been given over to him. As 1905 Is nearly out the council determined to ask for the removal of the present collector. The hearing in the case will be held Monday morning in court. The ladles of the First Presbyterian church have been preparing for some weeks for a bazaar and supper, and the affair was held last evening, proving a greater succcss even than had been anticipated. From 5 o'clock until 10 the Sunday school room, in Which the event was held, was crowded with people. The members of the Congregation entered heartily Into the work of the evening, and the visitors were well provided for. Supper wa.4 served at half u dozen tables, and a host of ladies looked after the needs of tho3e who came. An excellent menu was served. Besides, there were a number of booths, neatly decorated, at which a large variety of useful and fancy articles in the line of needlework was offered for sale. There were also a table for the sale of home made candy and a "Rebecca at the Well," where refreshing drinks were served by young ladles. The visitors apparently brought their poeketbooks along and the patronage was generous. Some 600 supper tickets were sold, and by 10 o'clock practically all of the articles in the various booths had been disposed of. The ladles were elated at the success which attended their effort. ThCj Melanie chapel orchestra furnished excellent music from 8 to 10 o'clock. YVrfile the accounts have not yet been settled, It is known that $100 will be cleared. Thanksgiving Day. York University.

"Every year every person in America concentrates all his thought upon one thing—the cataloguing of his reasons for being thankful to the Deity for the bleysings conferred upon him and upon the human race during the expiring 12 months. Yale, Harvard and Pennsylvania were not aniang the institutions invited to attend the convention. Princeton and Columbia were on the list. The Mataafa, which left her barge behind half a mile out of the harbor, attempted to run the canal locks. She was caught by the waves and dashed againBt the pier heads. In attempting to go about to get back into the lake the great sea lifted her bodily, poised the ship like a top and then dashed it with crashing foree upon the lock of concrete masonry. At a hearing this morning Deerfleld was held under $600 bail for his appearance at court. In default of bail he was committed. Walsh was fined $2 and costs and was released as soon as he settled up.

No one ever seems to thing of the Deity's side of it. Apparently no one concerns himself to inquire how much or how little he has had to be thankful for during the same period. Apparently no one has had good feeling enough to wish he might have a Thanksgiving day too. There is nothing right about this.

The servants for that government, In patriotic obedlenco to its commands, have lately killed and wounded 50,000 Jews by unusual and unpleasant methods, butchering the men and women with knife and bayonet, flinging them out of windows, saturating them with kerosene and setting flro to them, shutting them up in cellars and smothering them with smoke, drencljlng children with boiling water, tearing other children asunder by tho methods of the middle ages. Doubtless the most that he can be thankful for is that the carnage and suffering is not as bad as they might be. the Shooting. Indications are Good For a Mrs. Ellen Hussle, sister of Rev. John P. O'Malley, rector of St. John's church, died this morning at 7:30 at the' residence*of Father O'Malley. Death came after an Illness of more than a week from an internal trouble. Mrs. Hussie was in the 65th year of her age. Frank Vallore died at the hospital at 5 o'clock this morning from shot wounds in his head. Five hours earlier the man who shot him was captured at the Lehigh Valley station, after he had made a desperate effort to escape on a train bound for Buffalo.

The indications point to a very successful event, both in'regards to the quality of competitions and the attendance. The opening session starts at 10 o'clock in the morning, and will be a juvenile session in which about 25 children will compete for various prizes, besides the juvenile chorus of 7fD voices. This session should be attended especially by every child in Pittston and West Pittston ,and they will be admitted at 15 cents each. The news of Mrs. Hussle's death was a great shock to her friends, as up to within a few weeks she had been in apparently line health. The new protection piers at Sujierlor were swept away for the second time this season.

A week ago last Friday Mrs. Hussle left hf.-r home In Wllkesbarre to come to this city, in order to attend the services in honor of Father O'Malley's 40th anniversary as a priest. This event took place a week age last Sunday. She was taken 111 the day aftor she arrived and was unab'«C tn he present at the chuch 'services. It was soon evident that her ailment was of a serious nature, and her nephew, Dr. Joseph O'Malley, of Philadelphia, was sent for. He came here and several consultations were held.

No hope was held out that he would recover, as he had three bullets in his head. He lingered until the early hours of this morning. The body is still in the hospital and a post mortem will be held this afternoon. The military officers at St. Petersburg admit that no reliance can be placed on the line regiments, not even on those now stationed in the capital. The spirit of revolt pervades the whole array from Vladivostok to the Kuropean frontier, and the MauchuHan forces are almost openly revolting. Why Harvard and Yfile Are Not In It.

Mr. Masl had been trying to locate Defazlo since the shooting and heard last night that he was to leave for Buffalo. The rumblings of another general strike are becoming louder. The post and telegraph officials at Moscow hove already gone out. and the 'strike has spread to twelve other cities.

Seven soloists have entered in the contralto solo competition, and the best three Prior to issuing the call for the convention Chancellor MacCracken had asked President Eliot to lead such a movement, and the head of Harvard refused on the ground that he did not think it expedient to call a meeting of college presidents about football. The general workmen's council has summoned a conference of the leaders throughout the empire to discuss a national strike in sympathy with the locked out workmen of St. Petersburg. Political Siim'Uh, It is said that 'Defazlo hid In the house on Parsonage street from the time of the shooting until last night. About 9:15 last night he went Into the Lehigh Valley station and purchased a ticket for Buffalo. As soon as he got It he left the station and walked down the Lehigh Valley tracks. He then secreted himself among some cars near the Valley freight station and waited for the midnight Buffalo train. Chief Loftus and Mas! took up their watch some time after 10 o'clock and they, too, waited for the midnight train. Masl knew Defazlo and kept a sharp lookout for him. When the train was due the watchers took a stand on the platform. When the train pulled Into the station there was no sign of Defazio. Chief Loftus and Masl stood near the front of the train, as only the forward vestibules were open. Just as the train was about to pull out a foreigner rushed up from the rear end of the platform and attempted to Jump on. He was recognized at once by Masl, who made a funge at him and caught him. The man was terribly excited and he called out to let go.. Then he started to tight, but Masl held onto him and the chief put an end to his resistance. Defazlo was taken to the city hall and searched. A large revolver and two knives, one of them a stiletto, were found on him, also a ticket for Buffalo and $9. He was placed In a cell.
