A Word About Missions, with
Local Application.

In the course of the special mission
airy exercises of the Grace Reformed
Episcopal Sunday school yesterday. the
following on North American missions
was read.
American missions are to us home
missions, and, like most things, close
Mt hand and matters of daily expert
ence, they excite little interest among
us. II is easy to get together u large
audience, and rouse them to Il fever
heat of enthusiasm over China. India
or Central Africa, but try to gather the
same audience and to arouse the same
enthusiasm over the needs of those
perishing at your very doors, and you
will not be likely to repeat the expert
ment. We need not go outside Scran-
ton for a proof of the correctness OF
this assertion.
"On Franklin avenue. in our own
city. an institution as truly missionary
as any medical mission to Central
Africa, on society for establishing
schools and churches in China. is dying

ton. 1t asks from the people of Scran-
ton less than four cents per head to
reach out and save the lost in Christ's
name, and Scranton practically says It
are cheap today.
when our Lord commissioned His
disciples, he ordered them to begin
their work at Jerusalem. and l believe
that His command to Scranton Chris
tians, to Grace church Sunday school,
is to begin at Scranton

Nothing Doing.

Here is story of the late Eugene Field that
has never before hecn printed: With Mr.. Field
on the Chicago Record up to the time of the
atter's death was William T.. Curtis, known the
world over as Il wonderfully versatile newspaper
correspondent. Mr. Curtis was. and is, tbs
Washington correspondent Of the Record Herald,
and, being in Chicago on visit once, he met
Mr. Field. who had been Injecting up'hwith some
friends and was consequently financially short,
It was but the work oi moment for MIR. Curtis
To stake" his old friend and the two parted
with the understanding that the FIFTY was to he
returned next day. But Mr.. Fctd did not turn
up, and Mr.. Curtis was forced 60 leave Chicago
without seeing him. 1t CHANGED that Mr.. Curtii
did not visit Chicago again ior year or more,
and when he called at the Record office he
found Field buiily engaged, hut with The sIna
old cordial welcome. In the course Of the COM
yersation it developed thst Field had not yet

over this affair that haven't the nerve TO look
you in the face. 10 think that 1 should neglect
am old friend in that way. Dear, dear! What
must you think of me 10 behave like that"
oh, that's all IiglS, Gene" said Curtis. "Nou
can hand it TO me'beicre | 90 away again. Don't
let little thing like that worry YOU" And
the two parted with the understanding that

opened his Record at breakfast he looked over

FOR AN INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL.
Rev. George w. Kincaid in the City
in It's Interest.

Rev. George w. Kincaid, president
and founder of the Negro Industrial
kindergarten and Business school, at
Chambersburg, Pa, is in this city,
soliciting for his school. This is the
only school Of its kind among the
negroes of the north, the character of
which suggests necessity and adapta-
bility. The last legislature appropri-
ated $1,000 to the support of the school,
but executive interference DELAYS it's
payment so that DR.. Kincaid is COM
PEELED to make up for this deficit by
solicitation oe the public.
He has had good success in Pitts
burg, Harrisburg, Baltimore. Bethle-
hem, York, Wilkes-Bure and other
titles he has visited. He comes highly
recommended by prominent citizens of
fhambersburg, where his school is
ocated: Pittsburg and other places,
where his school IS well known. Dr.
kincaid will, no doubt, find sympa-
thetic reception in this city, as the
nature of his work will meet with
popular approval, lie is stopping at
6O6 Lackawanna avenue.
Rev. Kincaid spoke last night in the
African Methodist Episcopal church.
He believes the hope of his people for
the future lies in industrial training
which will fit them for occupations the
doors of which are now closed to them

tive committe to use its best efforts to
secure the passage of the franchise or
dinanCes was unanimously adopted
President DeVine in commenting upon
the action of the union after the meet
ing said:
She Central Labor Union has
placed itself on record as faVoring the
granting of the new franchises but not
unqualihedly so, The majority of the
members believe that the clty's inter-
ests should be properly safe e-guarded
by the imposition Of a tax upon the
gross receipts of the three new COM
panies We believe that the 500, 900 Of
fer made at last Thursday nights
meeting is not made in sincerity and
should not be considered.
THE legislative committee which
shall appoint 10 take this matter in
hand must first receive assurances
from the promoters of the new roads
that work will be commenced at once
and that the employees will be treated
fairly before they Will have authority
10 work for the passage of these fran
chises. You will notice that we do not
insist that union labor be employed.

RECEIVED STOLEN BRASS
Charles Wartoski and His Son Ar
rested on Saturday-Jas. Flynn
Accused of Stealing It.

Charles Waroski and his son, Simon,
junk dealers whose place of business is
located on Hickory street near the
Lackawanna river. We're arrested and
held under bail Saturday on the charge
Of receiving stolen brass. James Flynn,
one of the alleged brass thieves. was
also arrested and held under bail.
The Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western Railroad company has had
large quantities of brass stolen within
the past few weeks despite the fact
that many arrests have been made for
this ofense and that special officers
are continually at work trying to run
down the guilty persons.
Special Officers Spellman and Peel
traced some of the brass to Wartoskis s
shop and called one day last week in
the course of their investigation. While
they were in the junk shop Flynn
sauntered in with a dinner pail full Of
brass which he offered for sale. 1t
was found to be brass from Lacka-
wanna locomotives and a little further
investigation led to the discovery that
Flynn is employed by Contractor
O'Niel, who breaks up old engines for
the company. This led to Flynn's ar
rest
1t was ascertained that Wartoski had
sold a large quantity of brass to the
Everhart Brass Works. A search war
rant was secured from Alderman
Ruddy and nearly wagon load of the
stolen metal was discovered on the
scrap heap. The officials of the COM
pany operating the works admitted
having purchased the brass from War
toski but said they We're suspicious of
the metal and gave him a thirty day
note in payment instead of cash to give
them time to investigate.
Wartoski and his son We're arrested
on warrants issued by Alderman
Ruddy and both waived a hearing and
entered bail in the sum of $500. Flynn
entered bail in the sum of $500. 1t is
understood that number of other
brass thieves will be arrested in a few
days.

NEGOTIATIONS ARE OFF.
Clark Gone Home and the Strike
Still Unsettled.

President Clark of the Scranton Rail-
way company left for Philadelphia
Saturday afternoon at 4.27 without ef-
fecting IL settlement of the strike.
The strikers sent a committee of five
from their meeting with authority to
settle the strike OH certain terms. Mr..
Clark refused to deal with them, say
ing he would only deal with one man
having power to negotiate Il settle
ment.
About three minutes before Mr..
Clark took his train President Shea
rushed into the station and handed him
q written proposition. 1t was to the
effect that the company should take
back all the men, give them a fiat rate
of 10 cents an hour and sign contract
with them. Mr.. Clark looked it over
and said the terms We're impossible of
acceptance. Mr.. Shea retired and Mr..
Clark went on to Philadelphia.
The strikers held a regular meeting
last night in Carpenters hall. Nothing
was given out as to what transpired.
A LuZerne street car was stoned at
s o'clock last night, in front of Nor
ans hotel, ut the corner of LuZerne
and Sixteenth street. where McAuliffe
was fatally wounded in a street car
riot. \ crowd had assembled near the
corner, and when the car sailed by,
some one hurled stone through one
OF the side windows.
Only the motormun and conductor
We're on the car at the time, and neith-
er were injured. The car was not
stopped, but ran up to town, and the
matter was reported to the police, who
are now working on the case.
A South Side ear was also stoned
about the same hour last night on
Pittston avenue in front of the ceme-
terry. TWO windows We're broken.
