Around the Lackawanna Shops.

The new pattern making and cabi-
net shop, in course Of erection, is
nearly completed and Master Car
Builder Garfield expects to have 1t
ready for occupancy by the first OF
next week. The machinery will be
operated by electricity, and several
motors have been ordered. A new
panel paner will also be installed.
Two hundred and twenty-five Of
the new twin hopper coal cars for the
Lackawanna railroad have arrived
from the American Car company's
shops at Berwick, and 500 from the
Detroit shops are expected by De-
ccmber t. The total order was for
1000 cars.
The employees of the Lackawanna
car and machine shops at Buffalo,
Scranton and Dover will begin on the
nine-ho winter schedule of working
hours today. The shops have been
run on ten hours during the summer
months, but owing to the short days
and insuiiiciency of light it is neces-
sary to knock off work an hour ear
lier.
Work has been very brisk at the
shops during the past month. owing
to the number of cars turned In for
repair during the idleness at the
mines. When work is resumed at the
colieries. there will be plenty of cars
to handle the coal.
Two. passenger coaches have re-
Gently been remodelled into combina-
tion postal and baggage cars, owing
10 the increased demand for postal
service.
The company is about to ask for
bids on two or three siXty-foot COM
Dnation mail and baggage cars, to be
placed in the service.
Two sleeping cars now out of SER
vice will be remodelled into dining
cars. The dining service on the
Lackawanna road is much appreciated
by its patrons.
New air plants arc being installed
along the main line and at Hoboken
there is being erected pneumatic
wheel pits, for removing wheels from
trucks with the use of hosting jacks.
a similar plant will be erected in the
Scranton yard.
The passenger car equipment on the
I.ackaWanna railroad is now in better
shape than ever, and Master Car
3uilder Garfield is determined not to
permit any of the rolling stock to be
out on the road over fourteen months
without being overhauled.
The improvements made in the
tracks at Hoboken will save in thu
neishborhood of a $1,000 Il month in
The car department alone.
The new boiler house in the Lacka- :
wanna yard is nearly completed, and
four BOO horsepower Heine safety
boilers have been installed for heat
ing, lighting and other steam APP
pliances.
The foundation for the new paint
shop, between the round house and
machine shop, is nearly completed
and work will soon be commenced on
the superstructurc. The building will
be a one-story brick structure, 13SX71
feet. and fitted with plenty of win.
dows OF the dormer pattern. There
will be six tracks on the floor for en-.
gines to be painted on.
An order for six switch engines has
been placed by the L.ackawanna com,
pany with the Dickson Manufactur,
ing company. They will be used
around the yard.

BISHOP MADE AN ADDRESS.
Newman Club Enjoyed Visit from
It's Honorary President.

Especial interest attached to last
nights meeting of the Newman Maga-
zine club by reason of the presence Of
its honorary president, Right Rev.
Bishop Hoban. and the fact that 1t was
the last meeting to be attended by It's
moderator, Rev. j. j. Loughran. :. Il.
L., who leaves today, in company with
Rev. j. w. Malone, of Green Ridge, for
an extended course of study in Rome.
The regular literary programme was
set over till the next meeting, that the
club might hear from Bishop Hoban
an account of his travels in Europe
which he graciously consented to give
at the clubs earnest solicitation. The
bishop preceded his address by paying
glowing tribute to the late lamented
moderator and originator of the soci-
ETY., Rev. D. j. MacGoldrick.
His death was a great loss" said
Bishop Hoban. "He was my right
hand in many activities, and I do not
know how I can fill his place. He was
one of the brightest of men. I knew
him, possibly, as none of you knew
him. He discussed topics with me
which probably you did not hear him
on. The brlliancy of the man was
velous was the humility kindness and
gentleness that was coupled with his
intellectually. I do not know when
shall meet his like again"
Referring to the approaching depart
ure of Rev. Loughran, the bishop spoke
in warm terms of commentator of the
young priest who succeeded Father
MacGoldrick as the head of the soci-
ETY., and expressed regret that he was
to sever his connection with it. "Father
MacGoldrick's mantel fell on worthy
shoulders" the bishop said. You will
miss him, too" In concluding. he as
sured the club of his deep interest in
it's work, and that he would constitute
himself sort of step-father to see to
it that the work inaugurated by Father
MacGoldrick and continued so ably by
Father Loughran, would be prosecuted
zealously.
He announced that one of the tasks
he would have them undertake was a
study of sociology. Such a study, he
said, would have a tendency to incitc
an interest that would be prolific of
great good. Bishop Hoban is very
close student. or it might better be
said, an eminent scholar in sociology,
and should he direct the clubs study
in this subject the members will be
accorded rare treat.
On motion of Attorney John j. Muir
ply. seconded by r. G. Wills. a rising
vote of thanks was rendered the retir-
ing moderator. Rev. Father Loughran
responded fittingly, and Rev. j. j. Coro-
ner. of Towanda, who was one of the
visitors. spoke a few words of COM
mendation Of the work of the organ
iZation.
The bishops account of his European
trip was given in an informal way and
was along the lines of the interview he
accorded The Tribune yesterday.

TRIBUTE TO sTURGES.

"When Mr.. Sturges gave his name
as jury commissioners, the least sought

did 1t solely for your good and for

telling her that he scarcely thought
it would pay her to come over in

not desuade her from coming, and
the following evening he happened
to be at the hotel when the stage

Farmers Institute

The openini of the first Farmers
Institute OF Gilmore county, took
place at the court house, last Mon
day evening With very good at.
tendance. 7 lie Institute was called
to order By Ilt,n. ] A. Purtill, the
chairman. vlo delivered the open
ing addrt and introduced Prof
French. q ne Idaho State Univer-
city, the &. ld,e,tor of the Institute.
Judge A. NJ. Sinnott was elected
and duly installed secretary.
A man. olin and guitar duet was
then rendered by Mrs Reed and her
daughter, Miss Ora.
Prof. French then addressed the
meeting, dwelling on the impor-
lance of this kind of work as a
school of instruction for the farmer.
The farmer, he said, is becoming a
member one of the learned profess
sions, as agriculture has become a
science and schools for such science
are now in all our universities.
From the teachers Institutes comes
that of the farmers, and from the
scientific plan of farming comes the
successful farmer. In our state the
institute is yet pioneer work. In
other states, it is hard for the states
to meet the demand for organizers
of institutes. The professor graph
ically described the workings of the
agricultural school at the state uni
versity as well as the experiment
station close by, using screen work
and magic lantern pictures to illus
trate his work.
The institute adorned to meet on
Tuesday at 10 o'clock, A. M.
The institute re.convened at 10
O'Clock, A. M, at which session
Prof. French discussed the livestock
question.
At 2, P. M, another session was
held, at which time potato culture
was ably discussed by Prof. French
and Scion Mccoy, of Little Camas.
Mr.. Mccoy gave his experience on
potato culture, showing universally
fine specimens of tubers as the re-
suit of his system of potato growing
At $50, P. NJ, the last session
was held, when the court house
was packed to standing room. The
poultry question was handled by
Prof. French and Messrs. Mccoy
and Gipson.
Editor A. e. Gipson, of the
Gem State State Rural, of Caldwell,
read an interesting paper on farm
home life.
The session closed by stereoptican
views of various kinds of livestock,
with lecture accompanying. Among
the views exhibited were those of
specimens of Jersey, Guernsey, Her
ford, Poll Angus, Swiss and Hol-
stein cattle, and Merino sheep. The
most interesting picture was that of
the old typical long horned Texas
steer now extinct. The institute
then closed. The following COM
mittee was appointed to arrange for
the next institute: ]. A. Purtill,
Seth Heath. Scion Mccoy, Mrs. J.
H. Brady, and Mrs. J. W. sullo-
way.
The institute has been an affair
of pleasure, profit and instruction.
The agricultural press was repre-
scented by A. E. Gipson, of the Gem
State Rural, and w. M. Meehan, of
the Salem, Ore, Pacific Homestead.
