THE GRIFFIN ART COMPANY.
Latest Addition to Scranton's Long
List of Enterprises.

A well-known business house in this

will be received with surprise Refer
ence is made to the Griffin art studio
and gallery, which for years has been
successfully directed by it's proprietor,

This establishment is no more, but
has been merged into "rhe Griffin Art
company" owned and capitalized at a
large figure by stock company made
up of some Of the most prominent busi-
ness men of Scranton, with G. L. Grif-
fin as manager.
The business is to be vastly enlarged,
and the high standard of art goods will
be still more marked, The photo

under Mr.. Griffin's direction, but the
chief innovation is a product of his in
ventive genius, which will be known

lished reproductions of the most famous
pictures Of the world in water color of
an exquisite type at prices far below
anything ever before seen in works of

new departllre of the COmDany prOm
ises to be something which in every
respect will rebound to the glory OF

EVIDENTLY OF NOBLE BIRTH.
Examination of the Effects of Rev.
John KoWala-

An examination of the personal eff
fects of the late Rev. John Kowala,
who was found dead in bed Saturday
morning at his apartments on Summit
avenue, was conducted yesterday by a
committee of the Lutheran minsterium
with a view of ascertaining some
knowledge of his family connections.
From letters found in his bunk It
was Cleaned that he has a son and
daughter living in Silecia. Austria, and
an uncle who is or was an officer in
the Austrian army. The character of
the correspondence would indicate that
the dead minister was from a family Of
noble birth.
Diplomas and certificates found
among his effects disclosed the fact
that he was a graduate of the Vienna
Theological seminary and the Royal
University of Erlangen, and that he
was accorded high honors in his
classes, especially in the languages,
having certificates of excellence in
Latin, Greek, French and Hebrew.
He was born in Nedeck, Austria,
May 81, 1S45 and was, therefore, 81
years of age. His children will be noti-
fled at once of his death.
The funeral will take place this morn
ing at 1890 o'clock. Services will be
conducted at the Holy Trinity Lutheran
church by Rev. c. G. Spieker. Inter-
ment will be made in Dunmore ceme-
terry.
