GILMORE'S GREAT BAND
VIII open Laurel Hill Park with Concerts
Next Saturday.

Old-time friends of Gilmore and Gill
mores band will probably never lose
their affection for both, for they fairly
earned the rich reward of public good
will which was given. 1t is intense
satisfaction to all such friends to know
that the famous old band Is in q most
prosperous condition in every way, and
has taken new hold on public conf
dence and esteem by the magnificent
showing 1t Is making under the direc-
tion of Victor Herbert, the young Mo-
zart of the period
When Herbert consented to take the
leadership of the old organization he
got back most Of the old-time famous
soloists and artists Of Gilmores day
and u lot of new ones from both sides
of the Atlantic, and put them through
a long course of orchestral training.
with the old Gilmore library and his
own to draw from, some thousands OF
copies of the best music in existence,
he has now repertoire that can
scarcely be equalled on earth. And
the old band is playing as 1t never
played before.
The people are wild over it every
where 1t Is heard. 1t will play at the
great Pittsburg exposition next fall and
also at the Atlanta exposition.
1t will open Laurel Hill park for the
season next Saturday with concerts.

Waldron Coming to Scranton.

Waldron. the great Canadian horse
dealer, Is coming here with two carloads
of the best horses ever offered in this
market for sale. One car will contain
work and business horses, the other will
have high knee actors, coachers, trotters
and PAGERS, and some extra fine combina-
ton saddlers. He will arrive about We'd
nesday next and stop at the Cusick stables
on Washington avenue, where they can be
seen, tried and driven by those intending
to purchase. This is the man that sold
sixty odd horses in n little over one hour
at Utica, N. Y, something never before
accomplished. OF course the fact that he
handles Canada horses Is what enables
him to make such quick sales. He will
sell them at public auction for what they
will bring regardless of cost or valuation
When a horse enters the auction ring he
must be sold at some price, win or lose,
and that alone Is what made his sales so
successful whenever he sells. The Canada
horses have n world wide reputation for
their strength and working qualities, as
the are long living and healthy horses.
Among the string will be some fast ones
with records below 2.SO. If you want a
horse of any description walt for the
Canada horses.

ATTORNEYS FILE ANSWER.
Mako Denial of Charges Preferred by
Peter Mullen

Peter Mullen, of Greenwood, on Sat-
urday, May 4, represented by Attorney
NJ +. Mcdonald, began an equity suit
in court, praying for an injunction to
restrain the law firm Of Watson & Zim-
norman from circulating a petition to
which his name had been signed. The
petition conveyed the power of attorney
upon the firm to begin trepass pro-
ceedings for damages against the Lack
awanna and Old Forge Street Railway
company.
Among other property owners of
Lackawanna Mr.. Mullen signed the pc
tition, but he afterward regretted his
action and went to Watson & Zimmer-
man requesting them to erase his name.
They did not do so, and he applied for
an injunction. His bill of complaint set
forth that he had been induced to sign
the paper through fraud, trick and
artifice." .
The defendants filled their answer
Saturday in court. They make a gen
eral denial of every allegation in the
bill of complaint. They said they did
not know Mr. Mullen's name was on
the paper which they or their agents
had In their possession in reference to
the conveyance of power of attorney
to them emitting them to enter suit
against the street railway company.
They did not promise to erase his name,
for they did not know that his name
was on the paper.
They did not circulate paper solicit
ing persons to sign their names and
enter into agreement with them i'm ref
erence to bringing suit for damages.

to provide for the poor at Thanksgiv-
ing and Christmas time. Owing to the
accident to myself just before Thanks
giving, l was unable to do the usual
good work for the time, but did what
l could by letter, and, in that way,
provided for five families, and some
friends outside of the church cared for
six families more. thus providing for
eleven families.
At Christmastide we provided for
seventeen families, sending them the
usual basket of substantials, and top
ping off IA few luxuries In way of pie
cake, fruit, nuts, candies, and bits Of
holly. We also gave toys, etc, to sew
enty-three children. We were supplied
with toys and storybooks by the chill
dren and friends during the year, 80 we
had what we needed. Our Industrial
class made n dozen garments The
Willing Workers, the Young Ladies'
Missionary band, contributed toward
the Christmas good cheer, and with the
help of the sunshine committee OF the
Junior Christian Endeavor we pre-
pared a number of little baskets of
fruit and holly and sent them to our
two old ladies in the home, to some in
the hospital and to several institutions.
The Christian Endeavor made q
donation of provisions and various
other useful things that have been a
great help during the year. The Bap-
tist Publication society sent us seventy
five Bibles and Testaments for dis
tribution, which have been most ac-
ceptable. We gave out twenty-four of
them in homes that were without the
word.
Interesting Statistics.

Statistics after all tell but little; at
best they are but poor index Of labor
performed. They can never count the
answers to the earnest prayers that
are daily made, nor tell the cheerful
sSlf-sacrefice of those filed with the
Masters spirit, who so faithfully have
tried to do all this Service in His name,
for this Is your work, not the report of
one PERSONS labor only.
We feel that we have but half re-
ported the years WOrk-there Is so
much untold--but the Master knows 1t
all and will reward and bless those who
serve Him with the heart. Notwith-
standing all our failures, 1t has been
our desire that Christ be in every home,
that each may be "a Bethany home. for
there Is love, true love, and the heart
grows warm when the Lord to Bethany
comes.

SHORE ACRES TONIGHT,
1t Will Be Seen ut the Academy o
Music

1t viii Be Seen ut the Academy Of
Music.
Mr.. Herne has clearly demonstrated
In his interesting play, shore Acres"
that it is not necessary to have an in
tricate plot and a series of thrilling
and startling climaxes to gain the ap-
plause of the theater-gong public
With but a single exception the scenes
in Shore Acres" run along as smooth
ly and quietly as the waters of 4 tiny
brook.
The tragic sides of the story are de-
veloped naturally, and the denouement
could hardly be improved upon. I'm
like almost all other plays that treat of
New England life. Shore Acres" is
consistent throughout and never does
it appeal for approval through the in
PRODUCTION ofdancing or singing. There
are nearly thirty speaking parts in
"Shore Acres,' and an unusually large
dramatic company has to be employed
to interpret them. The play is an
nounced for the closing attraction of
the season at the Academy of Music
this evening.
