DUNMORE DOINGS.
Shoe Store of Pasquale Demara Bur-
glarized-An Unique Entertain
tainment Planned.

The little boot and shoe repairing
shop on Chestnut street, conducted by
Pasquale Demarco, presented a sorry
sight yesterday morning when the pro-
prietor opened the door preparatory
to resuming work for the day.
Boxes and accumulatlons of several
months were scattered promscuously
about the interior, but the repairing
tools, several pairs of boots and shoes
and some other job vHk could not
be found. After diligent search the
cobbler was Obliged to lock up the
shop and start cityward to endeavor
to purchase tools. Who the party or
parties who broke into the shop and
distracted the contents are there
seems to be no knowledge of, but it is
thought that the chicken stealing and
other depgedations on Bunker Hill
and this theft can all be traced to the
same source.

us also make the most OF the passing
hour. for ii is all we can call our own
for the night cometh when no man can
work"
A duartettte composed OF Misses
Elizabeth and Barbara Lewis, Messrs
John Evans and William Hughes, sang
q pleasing selection, and Miss Cora
Roberts. of North Scranton, read
paper on Failure and Success" The
substance of her composition was alonS
the following lines:
whether we fail or succeed in our
Christian work or life depends entirely
on our relation to Jesus Christ. AS
traveller depends on his guide, an army
on its general, so the Christian depends
on Christ. The very first lesson we
ought to learn is this: Except the
Lord build the house, they labor IN
vain that build it,
"'ro succeed we must not be cnam-
ored with our own ideas and methods,
hut always follow Gods beaten path
and prescribed ways. Self directed ef-
fort in christian work of any kind will
not and cannot succeed. The lesson
TO us is clear and may we all learn it
well and never forget IL. Whatever
We do in life our success in It is not
of chance. One Of the essential things
to success in christian work is to be
in touch with Christ, and cur labors
should be performed cheerfully and
| willingly.
ALWAYS PATIENT.
"We must always be patient and not
! fret about results, as they come slow
| ly. FrettinE often spoils the work al
| ready done and make us unfit to do
| that which is necessary to carry on the
work until the time comes to gather
| in the fruit Don't pluck the fruit be-
| fore It is rire Do as God does and
success will be yours. We must also
| have faith in ourselves. our methods
| and above all faith in God, and we
| must successfully live christian life
| in order to succeed in christian work"
Miss Roberts address was followed
| by a pleasing tenor solo by John
| Evans, and President Edwards pre-
sented the Scranton society with the
| prize banner offered by the board of
| managers of the union to the society

CREATURE OF GROWTH.

"Man is a creature of growth. Under
favorable circumstances. he may grow
and advance forever. AS a creature of
growth, his end is symmetry OF being.
To realize this. there must be n per-
fection Of parts. These parts may be
designated as the factors of mans abil-
ity. The truest rsecration of this
ability would consist of these factors
The best smethod then is the unfolding
of ones self into these harmonious
blending of powers.
ITO realize this perfection of parts,
man must have the right ideals and be
governed by healthy principles. The
best supplement to any ideal is n true
system of education. The truest con-
secration Of ability is it's perpetual in
crease for the highest aims in life. And
further. it Is the giving of the actual
self to attain the ideal self. II is not
sacrifice, but devotion. and the object
then is better personalities in better
society. The advance of society is the
Increasing liberty and power of the in
dividual, and therefore a more varied
and richer life for ALL"

Vaughn, of Ashland. gave an ad-
dress on "Christian Stewardship" She
spoke. in part, as follows:

countable for all He has given us and
some day we will be asked to give an
account OF our actions.
THE FAITHFUL STEWARD.
"The faithful steward Of God is he
who does his bidding in the right way,
and uses his money, time and talents
as the Master would have him. 1t is
required of a steward that he be found
faithful and let us be faithful and use
our talents as God would have us use

Miss McGreevy Tries to Cause
a Sensation.
HER STATEMENTS DENIED
She Tries to Break Up a Wedding and
Injure an Innocent MALI
Her Peculiar Actions.

Annie McGreevey, who about two years
ago figured in the courts as the plaintiff
in a breach of promise suit against ex-
Alderman Thomas Murray, and was de-
feated, is still looking for a husband. At
the time of the McGreevey-Murray
breach of promise suit the case attracted
considerable attention from the fact that
the defendant was an old bachelor, and or
that class of men not liable to triHe with
a woman's affections, still love runs SO
blindly at times that the public cannot
always tell. However, it was the verdict
of the jury and the belief of the pubic
that there never was a promise OF mar
riage between Miss McGreevey and Mr..
Murray. She is evidently one of those
persons who does not propose to remain
single while there are good men unmar-
ried, because four days ago she laid siege
upon another man and worst of all he
was a groom-elect. Her plot against this
man was a dark one indeed, for she
claimed she was already married to him,
which was proven to be absolutely false.
She was persistent against the state
mentS of her brothers who came forward
and said she was not married to Charles
Nelson. The records at the court house
We're searched at Mr.. Nelson's request,
but no record of a license could be found.
She claimed Father Pirnat had married
them at St. Peters church, but the rec
ords proved it false. Mr.. Nelson's mar
riage with an estimable young lady,
which was set for last night at St. Paul's
church was solemnized, but about two
hours earlier than the McGreevey woman
expected, so as to avoid any ~enbarrass-
ment at the wedding from the possible
appearance of a woman who seems to be
insane on marriage. 1t was we'll this
p~recaution was taken, because Miss Nc
Greevey appeared at the church at I
o'clock and walked up and down the mid
die aisle waiting for the wedding party
church several times and looked up and
party was coming. When the Wedding
party left the church a few moments be-
fore their many friends had showered
them with rice at the church door, and
through this Miss McGreevey waded in
her wrath. She was watched by a few
who stood outside and one of them re-
marked that it was a new fad to scatter
rice at the church door before a wedding,
which caused the enraged woman to fair
ly stamp the rice under her feet, little
thinking her wait was a useless one, and
that her persecution of an innocent man
on his wedding day was liable to lead
her into deeper trouble. After s o'clock
she went away.
If her d becomes more
she will be arrested and booked for in
sanity.

A HAPPY

Mrs. frankie Wilson. a colored woman
residing On Front street just off Birch.
is the happiest mother in Anaconda over
the return of her daughter Fossle. a
pretty 9-year-old mulatto girl. after a
separation of six years. Another woman,
also colored, named Scott. who halls from
Helena, appeared at the county Jail office
this morning and praised the goodness
and beauty of the child. Fossie. and inn
plored the sheriff to do what he could
to get the child out of the slums of Ana
conda. which she terms the locality in
which Mrs. Wilson resides. The story in
part is as follows:
During the year 1878 Mrs. Wilson mar
ried the father of the girl. His slave
name was Taylor. but he took the name
of Wilson upon becoming free. In course
of time two children were born to them
a boy, who died. and Fossie. who was
born nine years ago. Wilson died shortly
after the birth of Fossie. He was a
Pullman porter. After his death Mrs.
Wilson came west and placed the enid
in care of Mrs. Vaughan, who resided on
a farm six miles from Helena. She con-
tinued to pay for the support of the child.
Mrs. Vaughan finally died and her daugh-
ter. Mrs. Scott of Helena. took Fossie
and was paid so much per month for her
care. Three years ago Mrs. Wilson came
to Anaconda and began keeping board
ers. Last April the child was adopted
without the consent of Mrs. Wilson by
a Mrs. Parnell of k~alispell. On learning
this Mrs. Wilson, through her attorney.
w. H. Trippett of this city, commenced
an action in the district court of Lewis
and Clarke county to set aside the adop-
ton, and asked for a writ of habeas cor
pus for the delivery of the child in court.
which resulted in the adoption beng an
nulled and the child ordered delivered
to it's mother. Mrs. Wilson. The child
was brought in last night by Sheriff Con-
ley and turned over to its mother. whose
joy knew no bounds. Mrs. Scott of Hell
ena came over on the same train. Last
was spent by her in the same
.neishborhood. which esulted in her MAX
complaint this morning about the
of Anaconda in an idle attempt to
the home of the child in the
hope of securing the child from its
mother
