1t was supposed that all had been saved,
but when Rumpler had revived in the
open air and began to lock around for
his family Emma was missing
At that moment the young woman ran
to one of the front windows in her night
attire, and, had she stayed there, she
would not have lost her life. Instead of
remaining at the window until rescued.
the young woman returned to her room
to recover her jewelry and she did not
again appear. She was overcome by the
smoke, and when the fire was out her
burned body was found. She was u
years old. The other occupants of the
building escaped without injuries.

SOUTH SCRANTON.

Thomas Kelley, whom the leaders of
Democracy in the Nineteenth ward
have during the past week figured upon
as the candidate for common council to
combat against William j. Smith, the
Republican nominee, may not be the
choice of the Democrats for that honor.
The result of the ward caucus, held at
Donnelly's saloon Friday night, has
brought about surprises. The candi-
dacy OF julius Troy for the nomination
was considered as joke, but julius on
the first count received but two votes
less than Kelley, and he then made a
howl, finding two votes of his under
the table. A second tally made Troy
and Kelley tie, each receiving 143 votes.
Saturday and yesterday the leaders
and friends of the two candidates came
together to effect compromise. Both
sides were obdurate with regards to
concessions. The conference ended by
the agreement that Kelley and Troy
remain out of the fight, and another
caucus be held today. Martin j. May,
the grocer and undertaken, of Prospect
avenue and River street, is being
strongly urged to become the compro-
mise candidate. He will accept the
nomination if rendered to him by a
unanimous vote. Attorney John ].
Murphy, committeeman has issued the
call for the caucus today, to be held
at John j. Moran's place, on Prospect
avenue, between the hours of and Z
o'clock.
James, the three -year-old son of John
Breen, of 1917 Pittston avenue, received
an injury near his home yesterday that
nearly resulted in his death. The little
lad, in company with several children,
was playing, and, when chasing about,
he fell, landing on his face. When
raised to standing position his face
from the lower lip to the chin was
found to be laid open. Blood flowed
from it in streams. The boy was re-
moved to his home and DR.. John j.
Walsh hastily called. 1t required the
Doctors utmost efforts to stop the flow
Of blood. James was rapidly sinking,
and for an hour his death appeared
certain. He rallied later, and the cash
was closed with the insertion of FIVE
stitches.
The annual masquerade ball of the
RinggOld band will be held at Matters
hall on Wednesday night. The commit
tee of management of this leading and
popular musical organization is making

GREAT AUDIENCE OF MEN.
Listened to State Secretary s. M
Bard, of the Y. M. G. A, in the
Lyceum Theater Yester-
day Afternoon.

The fine weather brought out a great
audience OF men at the Lyceum theater
meeting yesterday. That the ministers
of the city are back of the movement
represented by these meetings was evil
dent from the number present at yes
terday's meeting.
The association orchestra rendered a
striking overture by Weber and a
trombone solo with orchestra accom-
paniment, Romance" by Bennett, was
played by John Turn. The Schubert
quartette, composed of Messrs. Bey-
non, Stevens, Jones and Watkins, sang
three selections, Onward and Up
ward" "A Land That Is Fairer Than
Day" and 1.-TWO Paths" The perfect
stiffness all over the house as these
three numbers We're being rendered
testified to the thorough enjoyment
of the audience.
State Secretary s. NJ. Bard spoke
briefly, but with great Clcarness and
force on the theme, And l II | Be
Lifted Up Will Draw All Men Unto
Me-" This passage, he said, referred
back to a well known event in Jewish
history when for their sins they were
smitten with a plague of serpents.
Many of them We're bitten and were
dying, but God commanded that a
brazen serpent be lifted upon a pole,
and said that he who looked upon it
would be healed.
To men in the nineteenth century
who are smitten with the virus of sin
Christ says: Look unto Me and be ye
saved all the ends of the earth" Just
so sure as the look at the brazen SER
pent in obedience to God brought
healing in the old uays, so he who
now looks at Jesus, whether he be a
big sinner or a little sinner, will fni
the sin poison stamped out and. new
life coursing through his nature.
A large number remained for an af-
ter service at which there were thirty
or more speakers who crowded their
remarks into ten minutes, and at the
close of this service a number of men
stated before those present that they
had determined to look to Jesus. and
hereafter live for him. In many re-
spects this was the best meeting yet
held and many men seemed to be vet
under the power of tpe remarkable ad-
dress by Dr. Lansing, which they had
listened to the week before.
A rousing meeting Of the Christian
workers and all who are interested in
these meetings is to be held tomorrow
evening in room 81, Connell building.

UNCONSCIOUS INFLUENCES.
Subject of Rev. James II. Ben
ninger's Discourse in the r.
r. Y. NJ. @. A. Yes
terday Afternoon.

At yesterdays regular Sunday after
noon gospel meeting of the Railroad
Young Mems Christian association, an
address was delivered by Rev. J. II.
Benninger. He spoke of "Our Uncon-
scious Influence"
Mr. Benninger began his talk with
reference to the visit of Peter at
Jerusalem and the scene at Soloman's
porch where an excited crowd had
gathered to witness the apostles work
among the sick and afflicted who had
been brought to him there. Mr.. Ben
ninger continued:
Each individual exerts an influence.
quiet, perhaps, but resR unconscious but
certain. The poisoned garment of Her
cules, in the legend, chung no closer to
him than does the shadow Of influence
to every one OF us. B. i. Hallock said,
Not what we have, but what We are
gives force to character" We are all in
danger OF thinking more what we will
do than what we will be. The motion of
the earth is not noticed by common OBJ
Servatton. No one can see how the moon
attracts. but 1t does attract and does it
silently though unconsciously to us.
Our influences, If evil will blight ami
curse other lives. We often hear 1t re-
marked that "time is the great destroyer
much as man. Man is the great destroy
er. History reveals the ruined empires
and cities and palaces and stately ca
thedralS all ruined by hand of man.
Scientists tell us that If you drop a peb
BILE on the beach of the ocean it will pro-
duce a ripple which will expand until
il touches the opposite shore of the ocean.
So great is the effect of little deed.
Men may preach and eXhort but after
all II is character which influences and
moves the world. What a given man does
In a community is more than what all
others say, because the deed comes be-
fore words and if the deed is evil II not
only affects the man but it will blight
! and curse other lives.
For our influence we are most solemn
ly responsible. To dodge a question does
not answer it; TO hide our guilt does not
pardon 1t. In like manner, to think We
have no inufience does not lessen the rc-
sponsibility. We ere most solemnly re-
sponsibe for our influence for three rea-
sons: First, because we are accountable
for what we are; second. because we have
the possibility within for doing good:
third. because if we would We cannct
perish alone.
Our influence if good will cast shad-
ows of blessing. This thought should
swceten all our lives, encourage hope and
brighten existence. We cannot, like
Peter, heal the sick in the temple, but We
can so live that into whatever homes we
may go our presence will bring a smile
of pleasure and a shadow of blessing.
