"Imperialism' by Fred Penrod.

With the subject Imperialism, the

His subject is a most popular one with
the people and Mr.. Penrod made good
impression with his speech. A portion
of his Grafton is as follows:

EXCURSION OF THE HOME.
Binghamton the Destination and
Sept. Ia the Date.


Through the courtesy of the Della
ware, Lackawanna and Western rail-
road, the Home for the Friendless will
conduct an excursion to Binghamton
on Sept IL. 1t will probably be the
best patronized affair of the kind which
has ever gone out of Scranton. The
said financial straits Of this excellent
institution are well known and the
public is anxious to help the Home.
When a trip which ordinarily costs
$3.50 is to be enjoyed for the sum Of
one dollar, the opportunity is one not
to be lost
For many reasons Bnghamton has
always been the most popular destina-
tion ever selected for these annual out
ings. The beautiful city and its many
attractive suburbs its parks and troll
ley rides afford pleasures for the day,
and, too, the business and social con-
nections of Binghamton and Scranton
are additional inducements to so on
the excursion. The patronage is al
ways select and congenial and the
management is so admirable as to in
vite confidence. 1t should be remem-
bered that this year there is double
need for generous support, as the eX-
curslon funds will provide bread and
butter for the winter.
The kind response to recent pleas for
help have temporarily tided the charity
over a very grave crisis and enabled
the treasurer to meet some pressing
bills, but there is now scarcely a dollar
in the treasury and the autumnal in
tereSt account will soon be due, The
excursion funds are absolutely needed
for food and domestic expenses. The
| management will be out today selling
tickets. Give them your cordial well
| come.

A BRILLIANT SERIES.
Entertainments Arranged for Benefit
of st. Luke's Summer Home.

Scranton will be provided with a
splendid series of five entertainments
this fall and winter by the entertain
ment committee of the Mems Guild of
ST. Luke's parish.
These entertainments will be for the
benefit of st. Luke's Summer Home
for Women and Children on which a
small debt still remains. In arrang-
ing the course the committee wisely
chose entertainments which will APP
peal to popular tastes, by being both
interesting and amusing.
The cost of securing the various at
fractions is such that the profit to aC-
crue to the Home will be comparative
ly small, but the committee correctly
reasoned that if only first class attrac-
tions We're presented. the patrons would
feel a double satisfaction in having
helped a deserving cause, and in hav-
ing received full value in the way of
entertainment for the money expended
The list of attractions is as follows
General John b. Gordon, Fred Emerson
Brooks, Willis Il. Dudley, DIR. Edison
Hoyt L. Conary.
General Gordon, who will appear
first, needs no introduction to a Scran-
ton audience. His splendid lecture on
THE Last Days of the Confederacy,
coupled with his brilliant Oratory and
fervid patriotism, was heard by large
audience in the Young Mems Christian
Association hall year or two ago. II
is safe to say that every person in that
audience will want to hear Genera
Gordon again.
Fred Emerson Brooks, the "Cali,
fornia Poet" comes highly endorsed by
such well known public men as Presi
dent Mckinley, Hon. Chauncey NJ. De
pew, Hon. John Sherman and a host o.
other promenent public men.
Willis L. Dudley is a unique enter
tainer with his illustrated talks on tn,
Adventures of a Kodak Fiend." I'm
agine the description of a "Kodal
Fiend" following Caesars army or IN,
Crusaders.

the United States navy during the lat
war with Spain, and whose magazlnt
articles have been so popular vii! re
late the incidents of the Battle of san
tiagO, as he saw them personally. Thi

interesting manner of delivering il.
Hoyt l.. Conary, the last on the list
is regarded as one of the greatest mirtI
provokers of the day. His "Aruun

tions is one of the funniest produc
tions that could be procured -
