Emil Paur, with his New York Sym
phony orchestra, will be at the new
armory, January 13, to give the great
est orchestra concert ever heard in
this city. 1t Is a satisfaction to note
that our people are taking vivid in
terest I'm this musical event, not only
on it's own account, but because of the
fact that the Young women's Chris
tian association Is to receive the bene-
fit thereof. If there is an organization
in this city which deserves the un-
qualified approval of the community it
is the one which provides IA safe and
attractive place where young girls may
lunch at n nominal cost, may be en-
tertained for nothing and may enjoy
the rest. the refining surroundings and
the culture which are there afforded.
To continue the beneficent work needs
more money. The association has not
asked for help in a long time. This Is
the occasion when it's friends give as
sistance and at the same time receive
a treat In the way of fine music. Our
city is becoming noted for it's musical
taste. 1t is willing to pay for good
concerts, and there is every prospect
that Emil PaurS superb orchestra will
have another big house to listen.
His men are the New York profess
sionals who have sometimes appeared
as assistants at our local orchestra
concerts. On this occasion u great at

The Bachelors ball of 1901 will long
be remembered as one of the most pic
turesque in the history of Scrantons
social life. The accessories were more
elaborate than anything heretofore at
tempted, and it almost seems that
nothing in the future can surpass
many of these details. One of the fea-
lures which added much to the appear
ance of luxury in a building which
must naturally be severe in it's in
terror, was the great profusion of Orl-
entail rugs. One collection was worth
at least $4,000, and was loaned for the
occasion by NIichaelian Bros. There
were also many other elegant rugs,
loaned by friends of the committee.
The young people danced until 4
o'clock, and say that they had the
