had long ago determined to never go
on a sick call with the idea of prepar-
ing a man to die. He would rather
prepare a man to live. If man Is
ready to live right, he is ready to die
right.
What proved an especially interest
ing feature of the lecture was DR.. Con-
wells narration of his experience on
an assignment given him when he was
! working as a reporter on the Tribune.
Mr.. Greeley gave him list of promi-
nent men and women of advanced age
who We're extremely active and di-
rected him to interview them, with an
idea of finding out in what way they
accounted for their virility. Henry
Ward Beecher, the first man he went
to, told him that a jolly heart made it
possible for him to work arduously.
This suggested to the interviewer that
he would ask each of the great per-
sonages he was to see if he was in the
habit of laughing, and what he par
ticularly laughed at.
Alfred Tennyson, Lydia Maria Childs,
Mrs. Whitney, General Burnside. Ralph
Waldo Emerson, Harriet Beecher
Stowe, were some of the celebrities in-
terrogated. All agreed that they We're
refreshed and invigorated by laughter
and the thing that each thought fun
niest We're amusing from their very
simplicity, as. for instance, Emerson,
usually supposed to be unalterably
grave, having his risibilities stirred to
the rollcking point by the contempla-
tion of the story about the young man
who got his letters mixed up and sent
to his sweetheart one intended for his
washerWoman.
The fund of stories with which the
lecture was embellished, most of them
being personal experiences or observa-
tions of the lecturer, made it extremely
entertaining. and, all in all, it is safe to
say Scranton audience was never bet
ter pleased.

AN EXCELLENT CONCERT.

y really excellent concert was given
last night in the Knights of Columbus
club house by the newly organized
Catholic Choral club, a singing society
formed from among the leading Catho-
lie singers of the city and directed by
Prof, John Y. Watkins. The concert
was given under the auspices of the
Catholic Historical society and was at
tended by large and enthusiastic au-
dience.
The music rendered by the club was
entirely sacred, and, considering the
small number of rehearsals which had
been conducted prior to last nights
concert, the results accomplished We're
wonderful indeed. In that grand
swinging chorus from Rossin's "Stabat
Mater beginning ''Stabat Mater Dolor-
oso JuN ct Crucem Filius," the work of
the chorus was exceptionally fine.
Other selections from the "Stabat
Mater" We're given by James Langan,
who sang the tenor solo, "Cujus AMI
man." ana John w. Jones, who rem
dered the PRO Peccatis" solo with
splendid robustness. Miss Kathryn
Mongan's beautiful soprano voice, with
it's wonderful clearness in the higher
register, was heard to great advantage
in the 'Infiammatus Est"
Mrs. Joseph O'Brien sang two num-
bers in her usual gifted manner. The
second song, an Easter anthem by
Woodman, was so eXquisitely rendered
that she was forced to respond to an
encore. Miss Mary INLAND sang duet
with Miss Mongan in the early part of
the evening, and displayed talent of no
mean order.
Prof Watkins conducted, and Bauer's
enlarged orchestra furnished the oc-

WOULDN'T APPROVE BILL
Auditing Committee Believes Sink
ing Fund Commission Had No
Authority to Seek Advice.

Some months ago, when the sinking
fund commissioners were considering
the advisability of taking up $4,000
worth of park Improvement bonds, they
requested former City Solicitor James
II. Torrey for an opinion as to the
legality of the issue. Mr.. Torrey sent
In an opinion, and an accompanying
bill for S25. This bill was held up last
night by the joint auditing committee,
which refused to approve it.
When the bill was read, Chairman D.
w. Vaughan requested Clerk Evan r.
Morris to read that section of the "rip-
per" bill bearing on the question, which
is as follows:
mo department of the city shall en-
ploy any other solicitor (but the city
solicitor), but assistant counsel may be
employed in any particular matter or
cause by the city recorder, with the
consent of councils, but he shall be Sc
lected by the city solicitor"
There's no use in arguing about
this said Mr. Vaughan. "These peo-
pie went ahead and secured outside
counsel with absolutely no right or au-
thority, and they alone are responsible
for the payment of this bill. We have

of furnishing a proper opinion as any
one else" The bill was held up.

Last night it was returned without the

by a letter in which he announced his
inability to approve the bill because OF
an item of s44433 for valves and sleeves
which he did not order. and because
the pavement charged for has not yet
been laid. The bill was referred back
to the company for correction.
Another bill referred back to Director
Roche at a previous meeting was one
for $3221S from the same company for
moving water mains in the Eleventh
ward to make room for a sewer. The
director refused to approve this also,
and in another communication eX-
pressed himself as believing that the

The last scheduled games in the sec
ond series of the Northeastern Penn
sylvania Bowling league were rolled
last night but the final result is still in
doubt, because of three postponed
games which yet remain to be rolled
between the Electric City and West
END Wheelmen, and upon the result of
which depends the championship to u
certain extent.
The Backus bowlers, who have the
lead, and who have been looked upon
for the last two weeks as sure thing
winners, fell down in most deplor
able manner last night at Wilkes Barre
and lost three straight games to the
West End Wheelmen, with a total score
of only 2,079 for the three games, or n
drop of nearly 100 pins each per man
from the last game rolled by the team
There were two scores of less than 100
and BILLY" Hopkins made only 100 in
the second game the lowest total ever
chalked up after his name in a match
game this season.
1t is said, in explanation Of the small
scores, that the alleys suffered from the
recent flooding they received, but then
the West Enders had the same condi-
tions to contend with. If the Electric
city Wheelmen can manage to win
their three postponed games, they will
be tied with the Backus team and will
have a. chance to play off for the
trophy. OF course, the Backus bowlers
have the advantage. but they may yet
lose the championship. The story Of
the Wilkes Barre games may be

TIE STRENUOUS LIFE.
A Great Strain.

No one disputes the fact that we are
living In a rapid" age; IL Is rush, rush,
rush from morning until night, and
competition is SO fierce that the strug-
gle does not cease until the machine is
worn out. Women, to, even when SUR
rounded by every comfort, become in
fected by the common spirit, and what
with their clubs and many social du-
ties, have no time to give though to
their physical well-being, until they
are suddenly brought to sharp realiz-
alton of the fact that nothing in their
lives is so important as attention to
correct, or rational living. 1t may sur

the pave was not properly laid by the

THAT COAL ASSESSMENT
City Solicitor Will Decide That 1t
Should Be Classed as Third
Glass Property.

City Solicitor Watson will today fur
nish the board of city assessors with a
written opinion dealing with the uues-
ton of assessing coal.
The assessors asked Mr.. Watson TO
decide whether coal should be classed
as frst-class property or whether it
should be placed in the same class as
the surface overhead, several of the
coal companies having objected to the
assessors method of procedure in fol-
lowing the former plan.
1t is understood that Mr.. Watson will
advise the assessors that coal should be
classified as third-class property, or
placed in the same class as agricul-
tural land. This opinion will be based
upon his belief that coal cannot be con-
strued to come under the specifications
fixed by statute for tirst-class or built
up property.
If the coal companies persist in OBJ
jecting to the classification now made,
the assessors will follow the city solic-
itors advice and will classify all coal
as third-class property, but they will
devise IL new method of valuing it. The
present valuation is $3.50 per foot per
acre. The method which it is proposed
w s''oi't, II tiic toii lS tliSSeu as tnlru-
class property, is to assess it in Il mmp
sum at so much per acre. taking into
considerat ton the average depth of the
veins
This would mean an increased ynm-
atiol, ana IL Is generally understood
lhat the coal companies are not overly
anxious to see such plan put into
iorce ana VIII agree TO abide by the
present valuation and classification.
The position of the assessors is that
the present valuation is not high, be-
cause the city has to take the word OF
the companies as to the amount of coal
owned by them, there being no appro-
priation to pay for the work of taking
measurements and making examlna-
