Young Mems Christian association.


The statement that the Young Mems
Christian Association of this city is EN-.
barrassed has proved true. A representa-.
tive of the MORNING HERALD called at the
rooms of the Association on Saturday night
and learned from the Clerk that the EN-
barassment was not very great, only seventy
five dollars, which is owing for rent, and
this would not have been but for the fact
that there are two hundred members of the
Association out of employment who have
not been able to pay up their dues. But the
members of the Association have arranged
q plan that it is is thought will be success
full Each one takes so many envelopes
which he distributes among his friends. In
each Of these envelopes will be placed a
penny day, and are collected daily by the
association. In this way an amount suffi-
cient to liquidate the Indebtedness of the
concern can be easily collected. Funds will
also be wanted to assist in putting in fur
nture and making Improvements that are
needed. The rooms now present very
neat and cheerful appearance, and during
the past winter were patronized numerous
". The membership is large, and but for
the large numbers out of work who are un-
able to meet their obligations to the associ.
alton, it would be free of Indebtedness. It
is to be hoped those who can will furnish
contributions, for as an inscription upon the
envelopes sent says. ''It is more blessed to
give than to receive"

BOGUS DIPLOMAS.

A trunk full Of bogus diplomas was cap.
tured at the Appraisers Department ofthe
Philadelphia Custom House, on Wednes
day last. A box was opened for e1amina-
ton, and was found to contain large lot
Of beautifully executed certificates to the
effect that the holder had attended all the
important clinics at the Hospital of the
University. The certificates are attrac-
lively printed, and well calculated to invite
the attention and investment of the army
of scamps who traffic in the sources of i'm
mediate medical graduation. Police off.
GERS are in search of one Doctor John
Buchanan. 1t is probable from the char
acter of the offence, and the attempted in
vasion of the laws of the United States,
that steps will be taken in the matter by
the Government, and national detectives
will soon be after Mr.. Buchanan. Besides
Mr.. Buchanan, it is reported that there are
other Philadelphia gentlemen who revel in
luxury and enjoy the confidence of the
citizens, who are partners ofMr. Buchanan
in this nefarious business, and if he is
caught it is thought he will not stand the
entire odium of the fraudulent diploma
business.

T.F. Bdyard on Taft's Order,

In answer to the inquiries of an inter-
viewer as to what he thought of Attorney
General Taft's laft order turning over to the
South to military law, Senator Bayard Of
Delaware said:
"No document so partisan, so reckless OF
all constitutional limitations upon power, so
regardless of historical truth, so utterly in-
subordinate to the decisions of the Supreme
Court of the United Stated, has in the his
tory of our country issued from depart
ment; not only acting as all departments
should act, under the sanction of the law,
but look to all other departments of the ex'
ecutive as itself the fountain of law for
them.

The widow Of Michael Noonan.

Mrs. Letitia Noonan, aged ninty years
died at her home iu the Big Woods, Har-
ford county, on Monday afternoon. She
was the widow of Michael Noonan, an
American sailor, who was impressed into
the British service at the breaking out Of
the war of 1919. Learning that war had
been declared he refused to fight against his
country. For his refusal he was cruelty
beaten by order of the British commander,
and thrown into Dartmoor prison. He took
part in both the unsuccessful attempts to es-
cape from that terrible place, and carried
the scars of his captivity to the day of his
death, which occurred ten or twelve years
ago.

Philadelphia politics are becoming yer

Philadelphia politics are becoming very
much snarled. There is an ENHANCEMENT
in each party. The Republicans have
started up an internecine war which
promises to culminate in the disruption Of
theparty at the December primaries, if not
before the Presidential election, and the
leaders Of the Democracy are fighting as
to which faction shall control the party
machinery and let it out to the highest
bidder.

BEER SALOON TROUBLES.

Before Esquire . O'Neill. acting May
or, last night, David Wilson had a
hearing on q charge of assaulting and
using abusive language towards Mrs.
John Schmuck. The plaintiff testified
that Wilson came into her husbands
saloon, and gave her hard shove, and
told her to 'go TO hell" Defendant
produced witness who testified that,
though close by he did not see the al ,
ledged assault, or hear the offensive
remark but that he did see Schmuck
throw beer.glass at Wilson, for what
cause he did not know. The defend.
ant asserted that Schmuck followed
him on the street and threw another
beer glass at him. narrowly missing
some passers-by. After hearing the
evidence and the various statements
the Esqaire decided that both sides
were somewhat TO blame 30 dismissed
the case.
Wilson left the hall, when he was
met by constable Hickman. with 6

One Moro Unfortunate.

Almost every day thep papers chronicle
the suicide of some unfortunate whose
mind has been enfeebled by dyspepsia,
over whose earthly horizon q heavy
gloom has gathered from the untold and
untellahle agonies of this cruel com.
plaint. Dyspepsia ia one OF the most
depressing diseases affecting humanity
1t is cosmopolitan in its nature-no coun.
try is exempt from ITS svisitations, no fami.
ly free from its attacks. There is balm
in Gilead it comes in the shape of the
Peruvian Syrup. For years it has been
scattering its blessings abroad. There is
probably, no disease which experience
has So amply proved to be remendiable by
the Peruvian Syrup as Dyspepsia. The
most inyetcrate forms cf this disease
have been completely cured by this medi.
cine, as ample testimony of many of oul
FIRST citizens prove.

After the conclusion OF Mr.. Farrell g
remarks the meeting grew very disorder
ly, and renewed their vigorous cries for
speakers. Mr.. Bourke responded to
numerous calls. and made short, sensi-
BILE speech, telling his hearers they did
not exhibit the proper spirit for men who
were asking for bread or work. He ad-
vised them to patiently await the return
OF the Water Committee, and conduct
themselves like men.
His remarks fell unheeded On careless
ears, and the meeting continued as tur-
bulent as ever.
Then came The crowning point, and
Charley Alexander, the well known col
ored oootoiack, was persuaded to take
the stand. At first he appeared to be
pnabled to say anything, and the Presi-
dent whispered to him q few suggestions
as to what he should say. Finally he
seemed to be seized with an inspiration,
and starting off with bound, he plunged
at once into half hours discourse which
kept the meeting in continuous roar OF
laughter. He jumped and stamped, and
thumped tho desk until the boards
cracked. His remarks were at times pc
culiarly apt and expressive, but his
whole speech, in it's oddityof er preston
and ridiculous construction, fairly ex-
celied any stump speech made by
Hushey Dougherty in his palmest days
The audience applauded him tremen
| dously, and among all the orators and
speakers OF the evening Bootblack
Charley carried off tho palm.
| How long he would have continued to
talk it is impossible to say, as his re
marks were cut short by the return OF
Mr.. Pyle.
Mr.. Pyle said that Council had deter
mined to resume work on the reservoir
on Thursday morning, a id that 100 mer
| would be put to work-each member tt
select tive men. These men will be EN-
ployed for week. and another hundred
and 80 on from week to week In regarc
to continuing the work, Council will de
eide ON Thursday night.
The announcement was received with
applause, and the meeting adjourne>
until Friday night.
