exceptionally impressive services this

ton of new members. Seventeen per-
sons were received into the church fell
lowehip, FIVE adults We're baptized and
two children.
The pastor, Rev. George +. Guild,
made brief sacramental address, pre-
ceding the distribution of the elements
of the Lords table. He emphasized the
duty of affectionate loyalty to Christ
by the lives which the founder of the
missionary church, Count Tinsendorff,
wrote under crude picture he saw on
the wall of his room at the humble
inn, where he was stopping while on
his journey as a missionary. This
/ have done for thee. What wilt thou
do for me?"
The service last evening was an hour
of gospel hymns and scored music.
Such gospel hymns as II Have a Song
l Love to Sing" keep Thy Faith
Steady" Behold a Stranger at the
Door," "While the Years are Rolling
On" were sung with much feeling and
reverent enthusiasm by the congrega-

TWAIN OF ACCIDENTS.

Yesterday afternon, while returning
from a funeral, Mrs. Miles Philbin, of
% Hale street, met with an accident
which resulted in dislocation of her
left arm, which is very painful. The
accident happened while she and her
son were driving along South Main
avenue, towards home. Just as they
approached Eynon street, a passing car
frightened the horse. The animal
backed up and overturned the carriage,
throwing the occupants out. The boy
was uninjured and pluckily held onto
his horse. Mrs. Philbin, not so fortu-
nate, struck her arm against a pro-
lection and dislocated it at the elbow
She was taken home and Dr. ]. j.
Roberts attended her.

NORTH SCRANTON.
Many Property Owners Discussed the
Paving Question in Feuuer &
Chappeps Hall.

A meeting of the property holders
on Providence road and North Main
avenue for the purpose of deciding
which should be the preference, brick
or asphalt, in the paving of those
thoroughfares, was held Saturday eve
ming in Fenner & Chappell's hall. Long
before the time set for opening the
meeting the floor space of the hall was
crowded with the property owners and
others interested in the outcome of the
meeting.
T. H. Won Storch was chosen chair
man, but he declined and Attorney A.
A. Vosburg was appointed to act in his
stead. j. X. Smith was selected Sec
retary. The chairman then stated the
object of the meeting, and invited dis
cusson on the question.
Several property holders from the
Park Place section were up with their
oppositions against the pave, but their
objections were Immediately ruled out
of order. Joseph Church, the sage of
Bulls Head by his remarks brought
out the wrath of Select Councilman
Wade Finn, and he remained silent
during the remainder of the meeting.
Councilman Finn was called upon for
remarks and responded with an outline
of the city engineers estimates and a
discussion of the materials.
On motion of c. II. Won Storch the
property holders present were request
ed to register their names and the
frontage of their properties, together
with their preference for brick or as
phalt. After the balloting was con-
cluded the names were counted and
found to number SO. A brick pave was
reported to be favorable to the major
ity.
1t was nearly the unanimous choice
OF the property holders between Prov
idence square and the city line that
that part of the thoroughfare be paved
with asphalt

 A NEW SEWER SYSTEM.
Proposition to Bond the Town Car ries by an Overwhelming Ma
 ioritV

SANTA ANA, Feb. 5.-The election on the proposition of voting s65,0o0 for sew CT system in this city to-day brought out the largest vote in the history of the town on any similar proposition. The to- tai vote cast was 9l0, of. which only ten were thrown out by errors. Bonds were carried by a decisive vote of GA to Zio, and there is general rejoicing in the town over the result.
 The plans upon which bonds were voted are for system of twenty miles Of sew CTS, reaching over half the territory or the city and emptying into the Santa Ana River bed two miles west Of town. II IS claimed the sewage from the city Will De disposed of with profit to the city to vege,- table gardeners cultiVating sandy Soll along the outfall. The opposition to bonds was based on the contention that the town did not need so large system and that the plan of bonding the town to con- struct sewers along private residence property was unfair to the property own CTS who will not be reached by the sys- tenn. :.
 The city officials state that the work of selling the bonds and proceeding with the construction of the system will be pushed as rapidly as possible. The plan adopted by the voters of Santa Ana to-day will give the city the largest sewer system or any place of its size in the State.

Workman Employed on the Salinas Sugar Factory Receives
 Bad Fall

SALINAS, Feb. 5.--L. R. Rock, an em- ploye of the Risdon Iron Works, engaged at the sugar factory, was seriously ln- jured just before noon to-day. While at work on the superstructure of the third floor he stepped backward off the large steel floor joist, and would no doubt have been instantly killed had it not been for his extreme presence of mind. Just as the man was falling he grabbed a rope which was used for hoisting timber, and held on to it best he could. at the same time sliding down toward the floor below.
 The friction, however, made 1t impos- sible for the unfortunate man to hold on After he had descended one story he let go and fell two stories to the bottom of the building. He was picked up in a critical condition. There was an ugly and deep cut just over the left eye and exposing the eyeball, the eyelid being al most severed The left leg was badly iacerated, one cut being about five inches long and very deep. The hands. fore arms and legs were badly rope-burned Eight stitches were required on the face and six on the leg.
