FUNERAL OF MRS. SCRINE,
Impressive Services at the Elm Park
Church Yesterday.

A large number of sympathizers were
present at the funeral services of the
late Mrs. Daniel Scrine, of 1917 Vine
street, which We're held at the Elm
Park church yesterday. Presiding
Elder Eckman delivered an impressive
address in which he stated that a week
ago last Sabbath, although suffering
severely from Illness, she wended her
way to the house of prayer. Although
weak in body her heart was strong to
the last in joining in the songs of Zion.
She had been loyal and faithful men,
ber of the church for many years and
had now gained her reward in going
from the church militant to the church
triumphant. She had done her work
well on earth. and the sweet memories
of her days would cheer the heart of
those left in sorrow behind Her eX-
ample and devotion should encourage
them and they should be cheered by the
hope that in the hap. y home loving
hearts would again me I where Christ
reigned and partngs W Id be no more.
Rev. w. Fl. Pearce oke of Mrs.
Scrine as a quiet, though vi and loving
Christian woman and 40 had been
a noble wife and a Christian mother.
She was tender and charitable in ma
ture with a heart full of Christian love
to all in distress. Her death left wide
place in the house and in the church.

and reverent spirit would always abide

a Christian or not, is dependent upon
the energy, the faithfulness, the honor
and honesty of those whom he employs.
He prefers the young man to whom he
looks for success, come to his counting
house, his store or his shop with clear
eyes, ruddy cheeks and clear brains,
and not the young man with the dull
eyes and muddled brain of the de-
bauchee, or one who has been out all
night in a beer saloon or billiard par
lor, or other place of dissipation.
The business man are ready to admit
that the Young Mems Christian asso-
citation is the only organization in any
of our communities which stretches out
it's hands expressly to young men in his
employ. He cannot but recognize that
the churches are organized for a diff
ferent, larger and more general
purpose, while the association, by its
mere existence, demonstrates its adapt
ability and availability for this pecu-
liar and important work.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1895-02-01

Business men have but to consider
that in all our cities and towns the
young men in the offices, stores and
shops are living in boarding houses, in
unpleasant rooms oftentimes, amid un-
congenial surroundings, and that when
their work is done they have no re-
sort but the streets, and they can readily
appreciate how important it is that
there should be places of resort free
from the temptations of the saloon and
the houses whose doors are always open
on the way to ruin and oftentimes pre-
mature death.
The Young Mems Christian associa-
ton is the only organization that main
tains such buildings, hence their i'm
portance to business men of Scranton

great need of this special work Al
most, if not all, business men know
something of the temptations which
beset young men in the towns and
cites-the temptations to intemper-
ance, impurity, impiety and infidelity.
and there are influences probably not
so glaring or open, but more insidious
and dangerous, which need not be men,
toned. 1t is of immense value to a
young man to get away from his sur
roundings where temptations beset him
ON every side to a place where the very
atmosphere indicates that there is
something higher and nobler in life
than the selfish enjoyments of every
day life. This is just what the asso-
citation furnishes and business men are
forced to admit that it is to them an
invaluable agency as well as to the
community in general, besides the
blessings which are acknowledged
heartily by the young men themselves.
Every business man, whether he be

men of the city, owing to a want Of
knowledge of the work accomplished,
may not realize the full value of the
benefits accruing from the establish
ment of the institution.
One reason is suggested why the as
sociation commends itself to business
men, and that is, it is organized for
definite and distinct work. In the days
of its infancy many outsiders had the
idea that it was organized to carry on
work which there was nobody else in
the neighborhood to do; that any work
the churches would not undertake, and
which there was no association organ
lied specially to attend to, Young
Mems Christian association ought to do
Some We're also possessed of the idea
that it was promoted to accomplish
general evangelistic work among the
masses. Others thought that it's mis-
sion was to stir up the churches to do
the right kind of work. There We're

American engineers are prone to pass
adverse criticism on English locomo-
tlVes at llrst slght, proDably by reason
of the different manner in which they
are designed. Englishmen visiting the
States often express their amusement
at the "top-heavy, clumsy-looking puff
ing-blllles," but upon closer examination
they confess that American locomo-
tives have some points of. superiority.
Notably Is this the case with regard
10 the protection afforded to engineers
by the well-bullt cabs in which they
are snugly ensconced. Their English
brethren have practically no protection
of this kind. The inevitable cow
catcher is not to be seen on the English
locomotives, for the good reason that
the railroads are so carefully fenced
in that cows and other quadrupeds
find 1t next to impossible to trespass on
the tracks. English locomotives. after
all, have some redeeming features.

LIFE IN AbWAR PRISON.
Discussed by Colonel l.. II. Ripple at Penn
avenue Baptist Church.

Colonel Ezra II. Ripple delivered an
interesting lecture on his Personal
War and Prison Experiences" to a
large audience at the Penn Avenue
Baptist church last evening. After re-
citing several incidents of deep interest
he concluded his lecture with the fol-
lowing remarks, which are brimful of
a patriotic spirit:
"As We came to the pontoon bridge,
over which we We're to pass, l could
see in the distance the Stars and
Stripes flying from the steeple. / had
not noticed them before, although we
had passed through a number of camps
in which they must have been, and this
first sight of the old flag was too much
for me. ! had had all | could hold of
joy before this came, and this was
more than / could stand. On looking
around at my comrades, / found that
there was not one that could restrain
the tears of joy that came willingly
to his eyes at the sight of the old flag
Oh, how we had learned to love it in
the months that we had spent outside
of it's protection and how much it rep
resented to us now. Liberty, home,
friends, protection, civilization, Gods
laws and Gods country-everything
that was worth living for, everything
that was worth dying for. We had
attested our devotion and loyalty to it
and now We were going home ITO enjoy
all that the supremacy of that flag
would guarantee to u.s.
Rev. Warren G. Partridge said that
on behalf of the Boys brigade, for
whose benefit the lecture was given,
he desired to thank Colonel Ripple for
his magnificent address, which was
more thrilling and interesting than
anything he had read in magazines or
books. The portrayal of the indescrib-
able sufferings which had been borne
in the war made him love his country
all the more

found in almost every church, cranks,
who were out of sorts with the congre-
cation or the pastor, who entertained
the notion that the association was a
good place for them wherein to air
their grievances. They found the at
mosphere chilly, however, and the
workers are no more troubled by their
unwelcome presence.

These notions dispelled, it is evident
to business men that the Young Mems

under a misapprehension. be supposed,
"A jack k-of-all-trades"-a real good fell
low who can do a little of everything
but never amounts to much. The asso-
citation aims to be master of one trade
to save and shield the young men- and
it, therefore, commends itself to bus-
ness men because it aims to do di-
rectly the work for which it was or
gani2ed.
Another reason is because there is
