Scranton to Supply All the Coal.

Every pound OF anthracite coal on
exhibition at the St Louis exhibition
will be from Scranton, and 1t will con-
stitute all the state exhibit of anthra-
cite coal from Pennsylvania
The honor conferred upon Scranton
by the state comes as the result Of the
state commission appointed to arrange
the Pennsylvania exhibits at the eX-
position After the commission was
appointed it decided that instead of
sending exhibits from various mines.
one exhibit in the shape Of massive
arch, built entirely of anthracite, be
sent TO be placed in the hall of min
ing. The question as to where the coal
could be secured was easily solved by
the commission inviting LackawaLna
county to furnish the anthracite,
which it readily agreed to do. All the
coal has been mined in the bellevue
colliery and is now being dressed and
polished. The arch will be the main
feature in the hall OF mining and Will
be sufficiently large to admit of a
team and coach being driven under it,
In addition Scranton will furnish a
miniature breaker for the exposition,
which Will be a marvel of mechanical
ingenuity. 1t will be perfect coun-
teIpart of the modern breaker, and will
be equipped and lighted by electricity
and, while in operation, every portion
of the machinery will be exposed SO
that the actual process of preparing
the coal may be seen and understood
10y the visitors.
Another unique exhibit will bc a
large handsome glass pier displaying
the various sizes of anthracite coal,
from the largest chunks to the small
est " birdseya.

INTERESTING
MEETINGS

The cyangelistic meetings at the
Mahoning Presbyterian church are at
tracing large congregations nightly.
Excellent results are apparent, several
persons having already united with
the church
Rev. DR.. Thomas Of Lewisburg, no
is conducting the meetings this week,
is a strong and magnetic speaker. His
sermon last night was founded upon
Romans, Sth chapter, 9th verse For
to be carnally minded is death aud to
be spiritually minded is life.
The speaker explained what con-
stitutes the carnally minded" man,
what he seeks after and what the con-
sequences are, passing on to the spirit
ualiy minded man whose nobler life
and higher aims stand out in striking
contrast.
1t is Impossible for the "carnally-
minded" man to become a 'spirit-
ualIy minded" man without divine
aid There is no natural development
from the former state unto the latter,
Intellectual culture will not accom-
plish it. 1t is only by the grace of God
through a new creation that the car
nally minded man can become spirit
ually minded.
In conclusion DR. Thomas made a
strong plea to the congregation urg-
ing those who had not been born again
to seek divine aid that they might
shun death and become men and wo-
men pure and spiritually minded
Dr. Thomas subject tonight will be
The Ready and the Unready. "
Next week Rev Dr.. W. d. Roberts

A CNV RCHS
FINE SHOWING

The United Evangelical church, East
Front street, closed its conference year
Sunday evening.
Der Of members have been lost TO the
church this year through being oblig-
ed to leave town for the sake Of en-
ployment, vet the United Evangelical
church has not only held its own but
has forged ahead along many lines.
Following is brief synopsis of the
pastors report, which was read at the
close Of Sunday evening S services: >
Regular sermons preached by tho
pastor during the year, 81; special
evangelistic sermons, 3D. total l2I
Sermons by the Presiding Elder and
others s. The pastor was absent but
one Sunday during the year. He made
5G4 pastoral visits Children baptized,
20 adults, , marriages performed, 9.
He officiated at II funerals.
As to membership, one died during
the year. Fifteen moved away with
certificates, making a total loss OF l6,
There was a gain of % members dur
ing the year, all Of whom were receiv-
ed by confession of faith. The total
membership at present is I12, which
shows a net gain of over the mem.
bership of last year During the year
there were So conversions; 1 were re-
claimed.
As to finances: Money paid for local
work, S1ll for bpnevolences, $50. Con-
tributed to the missionary cause,
$?4247; total sum raised and paid by
the congregation for the conference
wear, Sl02l47. The aggregate drops
below the total amount raised last
year Tut Rev. Dunn explains that
there is good reason for this, as the
people had employment only about
onc-third of the time ard that taking
this and other facts in consideration
they did as well if not better than dur
ing any year III the past.
The Sunday school, keystone League
of Christian Endeavor aud the three
missionary societies without exception
made general gains along all lines Of
work. 1t is generally conceded that
from a spiritual standpoint the United
Evangelical church was never IN q
better condition than at present. All

Winter at Hospital

Upon no set OF people has the long
and cold winter been harder than the
many hundred insane who are shuv up
at the Hospital here.
During the summer the condition OF
these unfortunate people, deprived OF
their liberty, is much improved by
their frequent excursions out Of doors,
Winter even of the milder sort carries
with it some restrictions IN the way
OF exercise, many of the weaker ones
being kept in doors altogether and
even those who are robust taken out
only on days that are relatively fair.
The present winter however, be
ginning with November has afforded
very few days when any but the very
hardest could be taken cut while
there were many intervals when out
OF door exercise was cut of altogcth-
er. There are PAGES in the building
provided for exercise but tho patients
miss the fresh air and the revivifying
effects of contact with nature such
as is felt by stroll over the fields.

THE CROWLEY

Court to have the non-suit stricken of

Engineer Callahan, who had charge
of the engine of the Buffalo Flyer
when it killed Joseph b. Cromley and
his little son at Watsontown, was him
self killed at Harrisburg on Friday
when the Buffalo Flyer collided with
freight car.
The dead engineer was relied upon
as one of the principal witnesses in
the event of the case being Toinstat-
ed. His testimony was not heard when
the trial was commenced, as the non
suit was ordered before any OF the
witnesses for the defense were placed
on the stand.

SEVERAL NEW
FEATURES

The new directory of Danville,
Bloomsbury and Berwick gotten up by
A. Z. Sholes Of Bethlehem is now out
and is being distributed. 1t contains
many excellent features anu is the most
complete that has been yet issued for
these towns.
In addition to the usual appendix re-
latiug to the Borough and Poor Dis
trict giving 70 Il information on church
es, secret societies and the like there
is a street directory Of each of the
three towns, giving the dwellings in
their order, each number Icing fol-
lowed with name of the o.cupant
This arrangement will be found of
great service to those who wish to
make a canvass of the town or to send
out advertising matter.
In the general directory the names
of the wives are given, which is an
other feature that will prove very use,
ful. A glance at the page reveals
which of the males are the heads of
families, the husband S name in every
instance being followed with the
Christian name of his wife, in par
enthesis.
The latter feature along with the
street directory is an idea which orig
mated with Mr Sholes
a summary Of the data contained as
it relates to Danville will be found of

Quincy Adams SAWYER,

There is no maudliu pathos. now
deemed mock sentiment, i'll the great
rural drama Quincy Adams Saw
yer. p" In fact it would be very hard to
pick out from the prompt book Of this
play any lines that could be classed as
sentimental. Yet there is sentiment
in plenty in this most popular of New
England dramas and mighty good and
true sentiment it is. too. The blind
girl, who is the centre of much OF the
dramatic interest, is a most appealing
figure, yet she neither mopes nor
whines. 1t is by personality that she
appeals and the sentiment that sur
rounds her is the natural outgrowth
of situation and conditions and not
the provision of the play
When the play is presented at the
Opera House on March % it will re-
pay the observer of such things to
note the entire absence of the trite
and hackneyed sentimental touches.
Perhaps this lack is the cause OF the
tremendous success of the play, which
is breaking all records wherever pres.
ented.

AUTOMATIC
SCREENING MACHINE

The automatic screw machine install
led at the Rempe Clock factory was
put into operation yesterday. UnqueS-
tionablv it is one Of the most complete
and most remarkable machines that
ever came to Danville.
As implied by the name the machine
is self acting With the exception OF
the three wheels employed all the
parts of the self winding clocks, over
20 in number, including pinions, pillars,
sockets and screws, are turned ont
with rapidity 10y the machine itself.
1t is an intricate looking mechanism
aud while watching its movements 1t
is hard to realize that it is not guided
by intelligence. Inserting a wire to
furnish material for the parts TO be
made the foreman goes about other
work leaving the machine to take care
OF itself
Unassisted by any Que yesterday 1t
went on with the making of piuions
each OF the complicated and tiny pieces
as it dropped from the machine, Ie-
vealing a state of perfection which 1t
would have been impossible to surpass
on the slower hand lathe.
Each part of the clock has a cutter
or tool" peculiar to itself. Replac-
ing one of these cutters with another Is
the work of but few minutes when
il is necessary to change the work. As
all these parts heretofore wors slowly
turned ont on a hand lathe it will
readily be seen that the automatic
screw machine must materially in
crease the capacity Of the plant with
out demanding corresponding increase
of floor space. The automatic machine
will do as much work as all the hand
lathrs combined and occupies no more
room than any one of them.
The new machine WAS made by
Brown q Sharp Of Providence, X. l.
and is very expensive \ new milling
machine has also been added but this
is not yet iu working order
The machines just installed are Of
the very latest pattern and place the
Rempe Manufacturing Company in a
position to meet promptly all the de-
mands of the trade in turning out its
wonderful self winding clocks

The Ice MAY Move To-day.

Information from up the river at a
late hour last night indicated that
there may be some high water news
toiay.
In railroad circles it was predicted
that the ice would break up some time
this afternoon In the vicinity Of
Wilkesbarre the ice was reported as
cracking and moving in places toward
the gorges. The latter. it was said,
showed not the least sign of breaking.
No great flood is looked for, how
ever, unless there should be heavy
fall of rain during the next day or so.
As soon as the ice moves the low lands
will no doubt be flooded and this will
be sure to cause some damage. The
spreading Of the water in this way
may prevent the ice gorges from break
ing. Inasmuch, however, as the ice
is loosening at several places as soon
as the water attaius a sufficient height
some interesting Developments are eX-
pected.
