he had been named as executor, and
about five years ago his father made
another will in which he was also made
executor. The last will, however, the
one under contest, he stated he had

death. When asked if he had not held
relations with his father,
he said that he had, and that his father
frequently consulted with him about his

The Big EisteddfOd.

The alert interest of every Scran-
tonian will go with the United Welsh
choir which is to participate this week
in the big WillSes-Barre eisteddfod, and
also with the individual and group
singers from this region whose names
are entered In the various competitions.
1t is an unusual thing for the best
voices of the Lackawanna valley to be
collected together in one harmonious
consolidation will be accepted by COM
peting choirs as offering no room for
excuses, and the vocal battle will there
fore be royal one. all along the line.
While we have no fear of the result,
It is we'll to bear in mind that the oppo-
sition has not been idle. The chorus
singers of Lu2erne county have drilled
incessantly and under skilled direction.
They have made all possible prepara-
tion, and will be aided by the active
sympathy of the major portion of the
audience. Having walloped Scranton
at base ball, it will now be the endeavor
of these kind Wilkes-B -Barreans also to
take our eisteddfodlc scalps, together
with the perquisites and emoluments
appertaining thereto. The remembrance
of these things ought to nerve our
amiable singers to a contrary determi-
nation. and to result, all in the best of
fellowship, in another magnificent
vlndication of Lackawanna' suprem-
acy.
Today's sessions of the eisteddfod
will be replete with interest to all who
can appreciate this elevating form of
competition in the finer arts; and the
Scrantonian who can attend them
should not by any means cheat himself
of the opportunity to do so.

The Secret Of Growers Strength.

FROM the Cleveland WOrld
Mr.. Cleveland has risen always on his
negations Knowing less of public things
than the eXigency of the public welfare re-
quired, he has been able to utter the vacui-
ties which would aptly express the inca
pacity of all others who also knew less
about any one public affair than the eX-
igency required Combining all the ques-
tions of which he was ignorant and col
lecting in one phalanX all who misappre-
hended any or either of these questions
he became the sure representative of the
aggregated incapacty on a majority Of
public issues. To make a working sue
cess in administering government out of n
man made great by the multiplicity of his
errors would be as hopeless a task as to
undertake to plow by balloon power or to
arrange a china shop by subjecting the
crockery to placement by the horns of an

Covering Deficits with Bonds.

From the Cleveland World
The present mood of the president is to
teach the American people that "sound
money! means treasury notes issued by
the United States and held up by new is
sues of bonds every six months to for
eign bankers. Each successive issue of
these bonds, however Is n Waterloo for
American finance, of which there can be
but few before abdication and flight.
Neither the Democratic party nor the Re-
publican will regard a continued issue of
bonds as satisfactory substitute for in
sufficient revenue, nor will either party
regard a tariff as working efficiently which
lets in sl9,4i9,56S worth of competing for
eign dress goods for women's and chill
drens wear in the first three months of
Its operation, or as much in three months
as had been marketed during the whole of
the previous year, and nevertheless pans
out deficit in revenue to be met by bonds.

Christianity's Stronghold.

Except in the impetus which 1t gives
to historical study and in the skill
which the exercise of any faculty inn
parts to those who do the exercising, we
are unable to see that any good is likely
to result from the present discussion of
the question: "Did Christ physically
rise from the tomb?" Discussion will
not cause men to agree; 1t will prob
ably simply accentuate and intensity
the points of their disagreement.
The very nature of Christianity would
seem to preclude the possibility Of
reaching final agreement along the
lines Of common evidence. 1t is of rec
ord that wherever Christianity has
waived its prerogative of relying upon
faith in order to meet its opponents
upon their own battle ground of his
torical fact, It has made no progress,
and In some instances has lost ground.
Faith is Christianity's rescue. Skepti-
cism may fire at it ever so vigorously,
but 1t can make absolutely no impress
sion upon It, for faith rises superior to
all of skepticism's arguments, and is as
a balloon poised high in the heavens,
far above the range of the enemy's
guns.

all. The essential truths of the Chris

theology to topple over and fall. The
leaven of materialism can work
changes in the scaffolding which theo-

Our Busy Criminals.

From the Montr0se Republican.
The Scranton Tribune of Thursday con-
tained the trial list for the two weeks
term of court for that county, commenc-
ing June II. A glance at this list demon
strates that Lackawanna certainly has
need for three judges and large court
house. Not less than 2i3 cases are down
for trial, and they cover almost every con-
ceivable phase of crime, excepting only
murder. If crime continues to increase in
Lackawanna as it has during the past few
years that county will have to have a few
more judges and an addition to Its court
house and Jail.

rlr. Oiney's Opportunity.

Secretary Olney enters upon his dis
charge of the important duties of the
state department under exceedingly
embarrassing circumstances. First of
all, he is unknown to the masses of the
people; and It is not customary in this
country, nor is 1t popular to entrust the
most influential position in the eXecu-
tive branch of the federal government,
the presidency alone excepted, to n
comparatively unknown and untried
man. But that apart, the signal fall
ure scored by his immediate predeces-
sor and the obvious inability of the
president who appointed him to get in
line with patriotic American sentiment
upon details of our foreign policy stand
out as danger signals ominous in their
portents of new disaster.
At the same time, however we real
ize the essential unfairness of con-
demning a man in advance. Mr.. Olney
is not to blame for having, until re-
certify. been unknown. The most of
his official associates are in precisely
the same predicament. Neither is he
responsible for what his predecessor
failed to do. He begins with the ne
cessity confronting him either of over
mastering these and other adverse cir
cumstances and thereby placing him
self among the truly great state secre-
taries of our history, or else of falling
ir.o a rut of hopeless mediocrity SINH
lar to the ruts into which each of his
fellow members of the cabinet has
fallen and complacently accepted.
While we fear the latter consumma-
tion, we hope for the former, and our
hope is shared by every American who
can appreciate the need, in our diplo-
matte dealings with other nations, of
firm, consistent, vigorous and uniform
policy, the same under Democratic as
under Republican administrations
policy as far removed from dyspeptic
sensitiveness to slight annoyances as 1t
is from an imbecile lack of stamina in
critical emergencies-a policy which
will not vary from dignitied cham
pionship of American privileges and
American rights, whether the opposi-
tion come from clustering Britain or
sea. If Mr.. Olney can approximate to a
realization of such a policy. his name
and fame will be gratefully remem-
bered both now and in the years to
come.

JOURNALISTIC.

A number of merry wights In Buffalo
have begun the publication of n satlrical
journal called 1.-THE Philistine," modelled
in form and Typography after the Chap
Book. In the first number City Clerk
Mark S. Hubbell Is represented by u
trenchant article in which he tugs Justify

literature, as illustrated in the insipid
stuff that fills many of our older maga-
zines. Mr.. Hubbell until elected to office
a few months ago. was one of Il. II. But
ler's staff of bright young men, and he
still retains an active interest in the in
ner workings of Buffalo newspaperdom.
The noticeable recent Frightening in the
appearance of the Scranton Times is due
to the assumption by w. r. Bell of the
editorial wand. Mr.. Bell has passed
twenty-one years of his life in the news
paper and printing business, and can fay
a fraud or make up form with equal ease
and completeness. The Times circulation
list has, 1t is said, already outgrown its

concerning northern Ohio.
"It," Wikes-Barres clever illustrated
