IN LOCAL THEATERS.

Joseph Arthur's New York fire engine
drama, The Still Alarm" will be pre-
scented at the Academy Of Music Tues
day. Feb. L, by probably the strongest
company that has ever presented this
play and upon the most favorable con-
ditiOns Its popularity has. as yet shown
no signs Of waning, a fact due to the
spirited manner in which it represents
scenes with which most Of US are famil-
lar and in which all Of US are inter-
ested. Nothing could be more spirited
and exciting than the reckless dash for
the fire in this play. Men, horses
everybody seem to be in a fever OF
excitement and this spreads to the au-
dience. This is the annual benefit of
Crystal Hose company and a full house
will no doubt greet it.
Sc
"Kentuck," the play which holds the
stage today, tomorrow and Wednesday
Of this week, Is a sensational and hui
morous play describing life and scenes
in the Blue Grass regions Of "Old Ken
tuck" 1t is described as high-class
performance, and has hitherto been pre-
sented only at full prices. 4 race scene
Is one of its features. The press every
where speaks Of the company in the
most hattering terms, and the theater
should be crowded at each performance.

BARRIERS implements to the value OF

ton, had ample time to prepare for the
arrest. His destination was surmiscd
from the fact of his having a sweet
heart at Bryn Mawr.

S. REWARDI !

delivery have reached us, which
we have traced to stolen papers,

EXPENSES.
PRIVILEGES Arc Il Godscud.

The figures are an average for several
years and show how cheaply hundreds
of Scranton young men are accorded
certain privileges. The regular and
sustaining members are asked to pay
only 40 per cent. for an educational,
athletic, religious and social godsend,
which might very justly be likened to
buying clothing, groceries or meat at
less than one-halr of the cost.

Comparison of Numbers.

"Only about 5000 missionares-men
and women-in all the heather world
today, and this small number are
against one billion and five hundred
million who know but little of Christ,
and must be evangelical before the
worlds twilight brightens into its lat
ter day glory. Forty millions of Pro-
estant church members today give less
than $4,000, 900 a year for this great
work of human redemption. Eight
thousand missionaries and $4,000. 900 is
all the response that the whole church
of Christ is making today to the bitter
cry of the billion and five hundred mil
lions of shackled human souls
as this response that the church is
making adequate? Does it meeC the
loud crying and imperative need, and
is 1t keeping pace with the spirit of the
age? Nay, nay. A radical change
must speedily come. A more aggres-
sive movement must be made. Minis
ters must glow with more ardor toward
this work of missions and the laity of
the church, facing the bright fact that
no outlay of men, money and means
ever brought returns so rich and rapid
as when devoted to missions, must he
persuaded by the argument and elo-
quence of this fact as well as by their
personal obligation to God, whose loved
and trusted stewards they are, to make
contributions commensurate to the
needs Of the rapidly ripenlng harvest

When the advertising atmosphere is so
heavily charged with exaggeratiOn, it
is well to remember who the honest
advertisers are. Windy assertions about
GREAT reductions advertising goods
at impossible prices, find no lodging
place in the minds Of intelligent people.
Dull trade throughout the legitimate
business season may make necessary,
wild statements from some clOthierS 70
attract trade, but the schemers will
have to scheme harder and find new
DISCUSSES for their lame excuses before
they can stop the people from coming
TO this store for honest values. The
triumph Of this store is the triumph OF
intelligence, and YOU have made it 50.
Trade has been up to the mark here,
vet there's touch Of attractiyeness in
the STYLES and aSsortments. We've add
ed another and more taking attraction

things here at this season; LOWER
PRICES than yOu find ELSEWHERE.

In connection with the finances Of the

in detail how the funds are divided.
The figures are indicated in the follow

What IT costs PER Year
Amount of Money 1t Takes to Run the
!. N. {. A. in all Its Departments.
MEMBERS PAY 40 PER CENT.
II Is Like Buying Groceries for Less Than
Half the Cost-Sixty Per Cent. of
the Expense Is Contributed by
Generous Subscription.

If a merchant or a banker had busi-
ness which did not sustain itself he
would probably dispose of It, If he con-
tinued his enterprise at loss it would
be because he had some good reason
for his action. These observations sug-
gest u comment on the finances Of the
Scranton Young Mems Christian asso-
citation. 1t costs between $4,000 and
$4,000 II year to conduct the association
and yet over half the amount, about
co per cent, has to be obtained by sub
scriptlOn-in other words, by free gifts.
TO many unacquainted with the real
character of Young Mems Christian as
sociation objects ana accomplishments
many persons might wonder why the
association Is allowed TO be run at Il
yearly loss of 60 per cent. Business
men would close up shop under the
same conditions, so it must be inferred
that there Is some good reason for main
tanning such an institution at 50 great
a loss.
Ncighty Facts Concisciy stated.
There are reasons offered for this
condition which will be readily under
stood as follows: First, because very
important and very expensive part Of
its work, ie., reading room, employ
ment bureau. boarding house register,
gospel meetings, song services, etc, Is
free to all men; second, because the
membership fee is put at less than half
the actual cost of privileges provided In
order to reach young men who could
not afford to pay club rates for member
ship privileges, and as result of this
an examination Of the membership rec
ord shows that 46 per cent. of mem
bers are mechanics, 1G per cent. clerks
II per cent. merchants and business
men, IS per cent. professional men, II
per cent. students; third, because the
association in its efforts to reach men
must compete with evil resorts which
lavish money in gilded attractions re-
gardlcss of expenditure. Thus 1t can
not afford to ccOnomiZe ON light, on
reading matter, on music, etc, but must
make its building homelike, attractive
and interesting.

An Amazing Spectacle.

The announcement that the presidents 's letter ia the interest of the gold monom- etslIism campaign In Illinois ia to be fol- lowed by speeches from Secretaries Gresham, Carlisle and Morton, Post. master General Wilson, Assistant Sec. retary Wike, Assistant Postmaster. Gen eral Jones, Comptroller E@kels and q host of minor officials is amazing news,
 Last fall when the Democratic party was engaged in losing struggle with tue enemy and was Tn desperate straits, IL appealed in vain 10 the administration for help. The president wrapped him. sell in eilence as with a garment, Not 4 word would he utter in behalf of the party Nor would he permi, any mem Der of his cabinet or any prominent administration officeholder to participate in the campaign. Secretary Carlisle was compelled 10 forfeit his pledge To deliver a speech in New York He and all the rest were dumb and inert The democ- raev was left to it's fate.
 But now when tle money power through clique of it's tools is trying 10 choke of the voice and lhwart inc wiil of the sof democrats, all is changed The dumb suddenly recover their voices. The president writes keynote letter and his cabinet and bnreau chiefs are to be sent scurrying to tbe stump 10 crush s traditional principle of democracy in support ot the gold propaganda Of Wall street. .
