PRETTY OUTING COSTUMES.
Duck Suits VIII BE Much Worn the
Coming Season.

Duck suits are being much worn. Last
year plain white. and black and white
and blue and white stripes were almost
the only varieties to be found. but this
season there are many more kinds. These
costumes are usually made up with a
plain skirt and close-itting Eton
jacket or short blazer and are trimmed
with braid of various sorts or rows Of
stitching. They are very useful. as the
goods have substance enough not to be-
come limp after one wearing, and yet
may be washed as frequently as is nee

Rev. Mr. WlsSWaGSser Has Not Returned 10
His Wife and Family.

n0oka

For several days rumor has been
current 10 the effect thatthe erringRev.
Q. L. Wisswaesser had returned TO his
wife and family. The fact is, Mr..
Wisswaesser has not returned, and,
further, although this is the third
time since his disappearance he is said
to have returned, not even single line
has he written 10 his wife or family.
The rumor had it that the ex-
preacher was in the city visiting his
family, but keeping himself behind
screens. The result Of this rumor at
tracted to Mrs. Wisswaesser's house a
motley crowd of people, from the
common street arab to the man Of a
family. Their conduct has made the
life of herself and family miserable.
She, with her two daughters, is living
with her mother at 420 Hickory street.
Her father, Fred Pfeifer. their only
support, has been at the Lackawanna
hospital for eight weeks, and his de-
bilitated condition does not give en-
couragement that he will be soon well
and able to work again, To add further
to her burden she is besieged by in
quisitive neighbors. and the crowd
that congregates in the street boot and
yell and throw stones and tin cans at
the door.
A TRIBUNE reporter called at her
house last night and was obliged to
edge his way through Heterogeneous
group Of humanity. After being ad-
mitted 10 the house, the family was
found in a terror stricken condition.
Tue reporter learned from Mrs. Wiss-
waesser that her husband not only was
not home, but had not sent one letter
to her in his absence.

Mr.. MooOY'S WORK.

Evangelist d. l.. Moody left at midnight
Tuesday for his home at Northfield, Mass.
Mr. Moody is at the head OF u powerful
mission force which at various times has
made itself felt over large portion of the
world and the present work Is but small
part OF the great mission work which is
being carried out in Pennsylvania. The
staff comprises besides it's great leader
Mr.. Moody, the eminent Evangelist Bliss,
who has 30 successfully labored on the
West Side; Evangelist Schiverea whose
work has been 80 singularly blessed in
Pittston, and Major Whittle. another
evangelist OF great renown. The musical
services are in charge Of George @. Steb-
bins, the composer Of many well known
sweet gospel tunes, whose cultivated
voice has accomplished SO much to help
Mr.. Moody in the great work, and Mr..
Weeden, a gifted and able musician who,
although young in years, has done sub
stantlal work IN the great movement.
Mr. Moody, however, has been the cen.
tral figure in Scranton, and any one who
attended but few of his meetings must
have been impressed with the fact that
Mr.. Moody's leading trait was that which
is essential to successful revivalist, viz:
truth. No one escaped his preaching, from
ministers to the humbleSt member of Gods
kingdom. No trade, no profession but
their weak points were touched upon: no
conscience but was reached. The direct
benefits of Mr.. Moodys invaluable services
cannot be seen or weighed, but no Impair
tial man would for a moment doubt that
immense benefits will accrue If the
churches will but take advantage of the
great wave Of religious enthusiasm created
by the evangelist. If there is time-serv-
ing minister in the city, the words Of Mr..
Moody must have cut him to the quick,
and self examination must follow. There
must be large number of church mem.
bers to whom the sermons would be di-
rectly applicable, and here lies the great
point in the evsngeiist's words.
*&E
To quicken the converted, to stir up the
Indifferent church members. If Mr.
Moody has not accomplished this in the
last twelve days. then the effect of his
work has been mi,,judged. Here, then,
will be the opportunity to realize one great
benefit of the mission. Mr.. Moody laid
great stress on the quickening of the con.
vel ted. 1--WE want more good Samarit ans
in our churches" said he, land the
churches will soon draw" This is the pith
of the whole question. This is the real
test of the success of the mission-an in.
crease in church membership. Mr.. Moody
has only commenced the work, and it re-
mains in the hands of the churches to fol-
low it up. He has shown the way even to
painful details almost, and it now rests
with the pastors and churches of Scranton
to decide. Shall the mission be in vaini
Mr.. Stebbins will leave to assist Major
Whittle in a series Of services at Mauch
Chunk. Mr.. Schiverea and MIR. Weeden
will continue the services at Hyde Park
and Mr. Bliss will conduct services at
Providence, where the tent now in Pitts.
ton will be erected.
