DIVERSION OF EVENING.
Delegates Entertained with Concert and
BANQUET.


Banquet.
After a hard days work in discussing
reports of various departments and
other routine business the delegates
were glad to avail themselves of the
invitation to attend the vocal and in
strumental concert which was held in
the Young Mems Christian Association
hall by the Columbian Mandolin, Banjo
and Guitar club, under the direction of
r. w. Neubauer The club. which Is
rapidly advancing in public favor, gave
the following selections: Fantasia"
by Chenet; Belle of New York" and
Liberty Bell"
Miss Ida Garagan. the popular So
prano, sang la Fioraii," and with
Ernest Croft, gave the duet IT Pesca-
tori" Miss Name Jordan. who has a
sweet contralto voice, sang 20 Promise
Me" to the delight of the crowded
house. instrumental selections were
also given by members of the club, all
of which were accorded the heartiest
plaudits of the audience Miss Jemima
G. Jones recited various selections with
great cleverness and was rewarded by
hearty applause.
The principal even. of tho evening
however, was an address by A. b. Say
bolt, ex-state councillor. who, in hu-
merous terms, ap)logizci that upon
such a warm night and in the midst Of
such fine programme, he should be
compelled to inflict an address Cpon
them. He was, however, glad of the
opportunity to present to them the OBJ
ject, aims and purposes of the Order
of United American Mechanics. The
objects were not only in the interest
of the men, but of their wives and chill
dren also, and affected the future desti-
MES Of the orphans of their members.
Mr.. Saybolt drew brilliant picture Of
the love of country which permeated
the breast of every man, and illustrate
ed the love of the Irishman for the
Green Isle, the Frenchman for his gay
Paris. but Americans loved their coun-
try because they had been rocked,
metaphorically speaking, in the very
cradle Of independence, and here they
found men from every cline enjoying
the blessings of liberty. After de-
scribing in most eloquent terms the
sentiment of patriotic American, he
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1895-05-08

said that 1t was with those feelings
that the Mechanics represented the ma
tive-born of this country and banded
together for the perpetuity Of the insti-
tutions of the country.
First Object OF tho Society.
The first object OF the society was to
secure employment for each member,
and to establish sick and funeral
fund. They also endeavored to aid
the incapacitated member. The society
also endeavored to protect the indus
tries OF the country as far as possible
from foreign competition. They also
gave similar benefit as other similar
secret beneficial soclties, and they were
careful in establishing entrance fees
and weekly dues as low as possible, and
yet grant as much support to members
as was consistent.
:. In Pennsylvania, however, their order
had suffered considerably, as in the
time of the rebellion many members
offered their lives upon the altar of
duty to their country.
Speaking of the name OF the order
he explained that 1t was not confined
to mechanics, and was not affiliated
with any labor organization of the

meeting of the Board Of Associated
Charities last night decided to put in
operation the New York plan for the
"Cultivation Of Vacant Lots by the I'm

signed by Colonel e. II. Ripple, presi-
dent, and Rev. Rogers Israel secretary,
Indicates the appeal for vacant lots and
funds necessary to carry on the work:
To the public.
The board Of associated charities. in
response to the needs of the day, and
In accordance with the experience of
many other cities, Is prepared to take
the initiative in providing work for the
unemployed by means of the cultivation
of vacant lots. Many needy have been
made independent. taxes reducted and
benevolent individuals saved expense
ana a wedding out of unworthy appli-
cants have been accomplished by this
plan.
The board therefore appeals for the
use of vacant lots in and upon the
outskirts of the city. and for money to
purchase implements, seeds, etc, for
this purpose. Responses in money may
be made to w. r. Smith. treasurer;
communications giving size and loca-
ton of lots to Rev. Rogers Israel, secre-
tary.
We also desire those who will avail
themselves of this opportunity to pro-
vide provisions for the coming fall and
winter, to attend in person and make
application for the use of such lots at
the Office of the board of associated
charities, municipal building, any

ReV. Rogers Israel, secretary.
Details of the Plan.
recent issue of The Tribune con-
tained detailed description of the
vacant lot plan. Briefly, it is for the
purpose of helping the unemployed to
sustain themselves; 1t abates the tramp
nuisance, relieves charitable institu-
tons, reduces taxes and aids many
needy and deserving persons who do not
ask for money. In New York the cost
OF the plan has been less than $4,000.
1t Is claimed that families can provide
enough vegetables for fall and winter.
and in many cases garden stuff may be
raised for sale.
The plan was brought to the attention
of the board by letter received by
Mayor Connell from Bolton Hall. secre-
tary of the committee which last year
adopted and put in successful operation
the plan in New York. This letter. and
an accompanying explanatory circular,
was read by Secretary Israel last night.

Stop that Cough!

1t may lead to serious conse-
quences. Cough remedies will
not do it, because it means more
than a simple cold. Scott's
Emulsion of Cod-liver Oil with
Hypophosphites will do it, and
at the same time will build UP
and fortify the system against
further attacks.
We are putting up a so-cent
size for just these local diff
culties. For ordinary Coughs
and Colds that quantity will
doubtless cure. If it is deep
seated it may require more.

chanics of the brain and mechanics of
and while it was confined to those of
American birth no sectarian or politi-
cal influences We're tolerated. Men of
all political parties gathered in their
councils, but they restricted the men,
bership to men born on the soil, as they
believed that such men, filed with the
love for their country, were best adapt
ed to hold the reins of government.
They Welcome the Immi grant.
AS an organization they welcomed
the foreign immigrant who was pre-
pared to uphold the best interests of
this great country, but they objected to
those who were the outpourings of the
jails, almshouses and pauper houses of
Europe, who were forced upon this
country; men who could not speak the
language of the country and had un-
pronounceable names. and We're called
by numbers to be distinguished They
were men who brought over large fami-
lies and herded them together in small
rooms like cattle and sheep, and yet
such were the men who came over to
enter into competition with the Ameri-
can workman, and whom the order
strenuously objected to.
In conclusion Mr.. Saybolt drew atten-
tion to the advantages of the order in
its military department, the daughters
of liberty and their system of benefit
insurance, and in eloquent language
urged those of native birth to take ad-
vantage of the facilities offered.
The following were the committee of
arrangements who made the prepara-
tions for the concert: John NJ. Horn
baker, chairman; William Fl. Coons,
secretary; John w. Warner, Ira o. Ives,
Joseph Compton, S. NJ. Sloat, II. NJ.
Beam. J. w. Adams, +. L. Swartz, b. O.
Alt, John 7. Widenor and John w. Ed
niger.
At the conclusion of the concert the
delegates adjourned to Caryrs restaur-
ant, on Linden street, where covers
were laid for 100 guests. An excellent
and choice menu was laid and the
guests enjoyed themselves thoroughly
at the well-loaded tables. Rare flowers
and Easter lilies were placed in profu-
sion mn the tables.
After supper A. b. Saybolt was called
upon to preside and an informal pro-
gramme was arranged. which was
opened by Edward Noppel, who gave a
humorous recitation of French Incl
dent, which caused roars of-laughter.
w. II. Coons, as representing the local
councils, made an excellent speech. in
which he referred to the pleasure af-
forded the local councils in entertain
ing such an honored body as the state
council.
The Mechanics of Scranton had been
fully alive to the honor conferred by
them in selecting this city for the con-
vention of 1895, and they had all striven
to make their guests comfortable, and
to render their visit pleasant and one
which would. he hoped, be brimful of
"reminiscences of happy time. Such a
gathering of experienced and intelli-
gent men would conduce to greater
energy and consequent success in the
local councils so that the result of
their visit would be lasting. Recitations
were delivered by Walter Graham and
Edward Pastorius, and the proceedings
terminated with a speech by J. NJ.
