Waiter Says Evangelist Put

Cynic Is Impartial.

From star Correspondent o. The rnbunsl
Scranton, Penn, Jan. 30.-A bellboy
brought a package into the almost
empty dining room at the Jermyn. As
he passed out a negro waiter playfully
grabbed for the dime guest had tipped
him.
Tins must be scarce when you hold
UP bellhops," the guest suggested
"Deed they is, boss replied the
waiter. "The towns been on the blink
since Billy Sunday was here year
ago"
"How's that"
"Well. you see, they closed up every
thing and there's nothing to hold trav-
cling folks here. There isn't even
cabaret TO bring in the town folks
nights. So everybody beats 1t for
wilkes Barre where there's something
doin'. lie sure put black curse on
spoht in this town"
That is one view of the permsnencJ
of Sundays work. Here IS an express
sion OF opinion by an executive OF pig
corporation, not church MEMBER anu

"The town hasn't got over blliy sun
