CONTROLLERS KNIFE.

The bills of the constables for serv-
ing subpoenas in the Langslaff- Kelly
election contest have been presented to
County Controller Jones, and he, in
Wrn, has placed them in the hands of
his attorney, eN-Judge Carpenter with
a view OF securing an opinion as to
their legality,
The total amount of the bills is about
$4,000. This represents fifty cents per
subpoena, and an average of fifty cents
mileage per subpoena. Controller
Jones believes that the constables are
not entitled TO more than fifteen cents
for serving a subpoena, and feels that
the claim of iVa miles travel to reach
each witness Is . Bit eXtrayagant. lie

the growth of the spiritual work is

NEARBY ASSOCIATIONS.

The interest at Taylor. in Lackawun-
ma district, is still growing and the
membership continues to increase.
Educational classes have been carried
| on with marked attendance. There
are temporary organizations at Jer-
nyn, Archibald and Parsons, and these
will soon become permanent. The
outlook for an association at Olyphant
ana Greenwood is promising; these
places have been visited number of
times.
In regard to the foreigners. it is eX-
pected soon that n similar organizu-
tion will be effected for the foreign
speaking men in each of these towns
Preliminary steps have already been
taken at Nanticoke and Forest City.
The plan of the Anthracite Region
committee is admirably adapted to the
needs of the foreign speaking young
men, because, there is mt present no
agency that affords them the oppor
tunty for advancement along educa-
tional and social lines
Very few English speaking people are
fully aware of the great needs of these
men. They are practically destitute as
to literature in their own language, and
one OF the plans of the Anthracite Re-
gion committee, is to put into crcula-
ton Il library in the foreign languages
throughout the entire region so that
they may have the opportunity TO fit
themselves for usefulness in society,
and to make them good industrious
American citizens.
Excellent meetings are being held by
the association. At NantiCoke, on the
9Th inst, there were between 125 and
l50 present. ii was decided at the last
meeting to enter rooms, ana have
everything in order to be occpied ON
the 1st of April. II is wonderful to see
how the men take hold of this work
TIT Nanticoke, and If the future can be
predicted from indications of the pres
ent, an excellent showing may be eX-
pected The rooms at Forty Fort have
been open for some time, and the men
are very enthusiastic i'm the movement.
Educational classes will be started at
this place about April the 1st, and con-
tinue until the last of June.
Y. NJ. G. 4. AT OLD FORGE.
ON the membership lists circulated
at Kingston there are 100 names, which
is IL proof that the men want some
good place TO utilize their spare time TO
good advantage DoTanceton, Luz
zerne borough, EdWardsyille ana other
towns adjacent 10 Wilkes Barre are
taking steps to organize,
Rooms have been secured at old
Forge in the central part of the town
and the same has been carpeted and
furnished. one of the prominent men
of the place was so fayorably disposed
to the movement that he presented the
young band of workers with an organ,
TO be used i'm their services The rooms
are nicely fitted up for meetings, regu-
lar class work and bible study, The

The anthracite region. with it's dense,
heterogeneous population and meagre
advantages for self culture is at last
receiving some thought from men of
recognized association ability. The
cities have had numerous good llbrar-
les. gymnasiums and many advantages
of which the young men of the mining
towns knew very little. There have
been attempts by philanthropic people
in some of the towns to aid the men
in developing themselves but nothing
of II substantial nature had ever been
done until the plans of the anthracite
region committee We're introduced.
The committee is being highly COM
mended on the progress of the great
work it has undertaken
In some hamlets where, about a year
ago. young men could be seen standing
in groups nearly every night in the
week. with no purpose in view save
passing the time. can be found a very
different state of affairs ut present.
Young Mems Christian associations
have been organized; reading rooms
have been opened. and many of the
young men are seizing the opportunity
of improving their time. SO very little
expense is attached to the running of
an association, according to the plans
of the committee, that even the small
est town in the region may share of
its benefits.
EDUCATIONAL PLANS.
The plans for education work have
been completed, and night schools will
be started in every association on the
first of October. and continue until
April i. The examinations will be
given by the International Young Mems
Christian association board of examin-
ers. and the students who successfully
pass will be granted diplomas which
will be recognized by the faculties of
many of our leading colleges and uni
VerSities.
In the Lehigh region much good is
being accomplished. The association
at Freeland owns it's own building, and
young mems meetings are held every
week. a Bible class is conducted week
ly by the field secretary. A class of
boys meet once a week for gymnastic
drill and Bible study. The work at
Freeland shows what can be done in
very short time. 1t is but a few
years ago when the men of this place
came together for the purpose of doing
something for their fellow-men.
The effects of their persistence and
determination for better things are not
only manifest in the building which
they have erected. but in the character
and attachments of some of the young
men of the town. Rooms have been
secured at Tresckow, and a very good
work is carried on by the volunteer
men, aided by the field secretary.
Largely attended Bible classes are be-
ing conducted weekly at Jeddo and
Sandy Run. At Northumberland the
young mems rooms are on the ground
floor: the rooms are we'll furnished
and open every evening. The mems
meetings are doing much good for the
uplifting of the standards of living, and
they are attended by no small percent
age of the male population. a reading
room is open at Minersvile and is be-
ing used to good advantage by the men
and boys of the town.
