We - fhs
Professor w. Grablaschoff, of Shen-
andoah, spoke yesterday afternoon at
the Young Mems Christian association
rooms on Bulgaria. The assemblage
was principally of young men. Pro-
fessor Grablaschoff is a native of Rou-
mania, and spent most of his life in
Bulgaria.
He spoke with charming foreign
accent and is thoroughly entertaining
Yesterday afternoon Professor Grab
laschoff talked of Bulgaria in its re-
lation to Christianity. There the few
Christians are prosecuted chiefly be-
cause of the ignorance of the people
a condition brought on by 500 years OF
suppression from the tyrant Turkey
He told of it's fine and fertile soil and
Of the beauty of the country where
roses grow in acres space.
Professor Grablaschoff recited many
incidents of Bulgarian life to illustrate
his points. He said that the Methodist

responsible for the introduction of the
Christian religion to the country.

DAVID WElsBURG'S ADDRESS.
Number of Persons Are Anxious TO
Obtain 1t.

A rigid search is being made for
David Weisburg, the treasurer of the
Scranton Clerks association. Weis-

treasurer, but to his recent employers,
Goldsmith Bros. and the bookkeeper
of the firm as well.
Weisburg is in arrears to the Clerks
association. He owes Goldsmith Bros.
$50 for advanced salary, and the book

MISS JUDGE WILL RECOVER.
Was Able to Sit Up Yesterday and
Converse with Friends.

Miss Bessie Judge, the young lady
who met with such a dreadful accident
by the falling of a pane of glass on
Washington avenue last Tuesday af-
tcrnoon,, is able to leave her bed and
sit in chair to converse with friends
at the Lackawanna hospital. DR..
Newbury stated yesterday that to
all appearances the danger mark had
been passed and Miss Judge will prob
ably recover.
The wound on the head will, it is
thought, leave no noticeable mari7.
Miss Judges success in withstanding
the dangerous ordeal is due to her re-
markably powerful physique. The
physicians say that a less fortunate
person would not have survived the
first shock.
A sister of Miss Judge is in the city
from their home in New York.

Richard p. Little, editor, and James
J. Mahon, business manager, joint pro-
prietors of a Sunday paper which for
several months past has been circu-
lated in this city gratis, were arrested
yesterday morning by Chief of Police
Frank Robllng, jr., for violation of the
old blue Laws" dated 1884, which
forbids, among other things, the prac-
tice of manual labor on Sunday. Little
was fined $3.50 by Alderman Millar, two
newsboys who were arrested with him
suffering the same penalty. Mahon's
case will be decided by Alderman Mil
lar at IL o'clock this morning.
The arrests grew out of an attack
on Chief Robling's honesty made in the
Scrantonian, as the paper is called, In
the issue of Sunday, Aug. Is. Chief
Robling did not assign the making of
the arrests to any of his subordinates.
He captured Little and Mahon him.

silverism that many OF its advocates
seem to think that the gold standard
men have some sort of spite against the
white metal and we have seen 1t from
several sources lately that the gold bugs
are rejoicing in the fact that silver has
fallen in price" How childish that Is,
10 be sure. The opponents of free coin
age have naturally felt elated over the
fact that while silver has gone down,
wheat has gone up, thus exploding one
OF the pet theories of the silver people.
They are also elated that prosperity is
returning in spite OF the fact that the
followers Of Mr.. Bryan predicted last fan
that unless the country declared for free
silver. the country would go 10 the dogs
But they are not elated that silver has
gone down.

THE POVERTY HABIT.
Meu Get Into the Habit Of Being Poor Be-
cause They Never Save.


He was one Of these poor unfortunate
fellows, said the prosperous old gentle
man in a tone Of commiseration; honest,
straightforward and good natured. who
never mad anything"
While the old gentleman evidently felt
sorry for the man he was describing. It
was perfectly apparent from his tone OF
voice that he had notion away down
In the depths of his understanding that
tho unfortunate" was not entirely blame
less in that "he never had anything"
When you come to think about IT, was
he altogether wrong? Is IL not about as
easy 10 have something as 20 have moth.
ing II you once get in the habit?
How many OF these poor unfortunates'
spend a hundreds dollars or more each
year On things that they could just as
wen and perhaps better do without?
What Is twenty-five cents a day?" say
they. 1T is not worth saving"
But twenty-five cents a day is more than
six dollars a month and six dollars a
month will carry ten shares in building
and loan association. and six dollars a
month thus invested will in ten years
amount to a thousand dollars. A very
snug sum for a rainy day.
Poverty Is largely habt-the habit or
spending all that one makes. Many PEG
pie live right up 10 their means and even
90 into debt, so that they never have
dollar that they can call their own.
man who has hundred dollars ahead IS
four times as we'll of as a man who IS
hundred dollars in debt. He Is free from
the anxiety and annoyance or DEBT, ne
feels Ike a man Of independence ana oy
paying cash for what he buys, ne IS All
the time saving.
Thrift IS a matter OF habit also very
good habit which building and loan asso-
Citations help 10 acquire.
When once you have acquired the haoil
OF paying monthly dues TO a building ahc

just as naturally as you pay your poaru
bill, or your rent. Try IT ana see IN
this way you not only save, but your saw
ings are constantly enhancing In value
Moreover. YOU have stock that can always
be used in borrowing money should you
get into a tight place or want TO make
cash investment in business deal. Sucn
stock is a most comfortable thing 10

II you invest in a Richmond association
you need give yourself no uneasiness. Inc
Richmond associations are all GOOD ain

With VIRGINIA EpITOKs.

The Peninsula Enterprise fully concurs
in the view Of The Times that the need
OF the South Is a system Of practical edu-
cation that will aid pupils in making a
living.
The Farmvile Herald thinks that Major
Tyler has set the young men of the State
a good example in his persistent candidacy
for the gubernatorial nomination.
He never lost confidence or cheerfulness
saws our contemporary. but kept right
on until he won the prize. That Is the
stuff that succeeds.
In speaking OF the action Of the Old
Dominion Democratic Club OF Richmond
on the question Of the senatorial primary
plan. the Fredericksburg Star says;
This issue is not dead. but the masses

above will show. Notwithstanding mos'
Of the CITY delegates voted against the
urinary plan at Roanoke, the city voters
are endorsing the proposed change

We doubt not that IN this matter the
Old Dominion Club represents the senti-
ments OF Richmond Democracy.
The Henry County Bulletin thinks that
the floating Senator from that county
and Pittsylvania should this time come
from Henry.

tribute 20 ex-senator Stubs:
