BISHOP II0HAN TOLD OF
THREAT AGAINST LIFE i
Head of Scranton Diocese Receives
Warning Letter From Woman
SCRANTON, Pa., Jan. 22. The life of
the Rl.ht Itev. M, J. Hobnn, Jlishop nf
the Roman Catholic Dioceso of Scranton.
has been threattned by sympathizers of
tbe faction opposed to the Bishop that
participated In a riot outside a Polish
Catholic Church at du I'ont last Sunday.'
"I received a letter today from a t'uth
ollc woman at du Pont, telling me that
she overheard a conversation at which
It was decided that my life should bo
taken. I'm not losing any sleep over tho
threat," Bishop Hoban said.
The Bishop has learned, he said, that
agitators sent here by the Industrial
Workers of the World had something to
do with the riot at du Pont, In which one
rioter was killed and two score of people.
Including 10 State Troopers, seilously In
jured. Because of the Illness of Father Kur
kowskl, the priest assigned by Bishop
Hoban to the du Pont Church, no attempt
will be made to resume services Sunday
morning. The Bishop announced the In
surance on the church has been canceled
by the Insurance ompanles, due to threats
being made that the edifice would be
burned.
Bishop Hoban denies a statement Issued
by the leaders of the faction opposing hint
In the du Pont church quarrel. inJ"ln
which the Bishop Is accused of (limiting
the committee seat to him by the taction.
"If teUlng them the truth is insulting
them, then I certainly mus' have Insulted
them," tbe Bishop said. , .
less it .was thnt when Mr. Wilson got
his position as President he took alt
liis old friends in the business direc
tory, from nrchitcctural iron works

lixecl tliem up with jobs nlphnbetlcally.
For instance, old friends up to nnd

ness is Ambnssndor to Sweden, nnd
nnother old friend in the pants bust
ness Ambnssndor (o Nor'wny, nnd so
on from paints and painters' supplies
through pieklqk down to portnblo
houses."
"Well, after, all," Birsky snid, "it
ain't such n Kunst to bo nn Ambassa
dor. All nn Ambnssndor does is whnt
he is told,"
"And they couldn't even do that."
Zapp continued. "Thnt's why, accord
ing to some people, President Wilson
is sending Colonel House to mnko
them fellers stay on the job, on ac
count Colonel House being n bnnkcr,
naturally a printer or n pig iron man
ufacturer looks up to such a feller,
which all of them bankers is connected
one with the other in bankers' as
sociations, and if that Ohio pig iron
manufacturer gets fresh with Colonel
House, understand mo, the next timo
the pig iron trade becomes n little

to see thd president of the Kosciusko

SINGLE WORD TELLS
HER OF SON'S DEATH
Letter Stamped "Deceased" Re
turned to Mother Here of
"Soldier Boy"
Mrs. Edith Mnhon, a pianist of .distinc
tion, has received a letter from abroad
with the word "Deceased" rubber-stamped
upon the envelope. She had written the
letter herself and addressed It to her son,
who wns fighting with the British against
the Turks on the Galllpoli Peninsula. The
rubber-stamp method of the overworked
British "dead letter" department Is not
as familiar In this country as It Is In Eng
land nnd the letter came to Mrs. Mahon
as a terrible shock.
She Is at her home. 1330 Spring Garden
street, suffering from the effects of the
news.
Mrs. Mahon and her sons were born In
England. The elder. Owen O Forrest,
has u position In the olfico of the secre
tary of the Pennsylvania Railroad. Tho
younger. Richard L. O Forrest, was liv
ing In New Zealand when the war began
Both had been to South Africa, where they
studied in the University of the Orange
Free State nt Bloemfonteln, and Owen
fought In 'the South African War He
became an expert In railroading and after
he tired of the life of adventure came lo
this city to Join his mother. Richard,
who would e 2 years old now. If he were
alive, was more devoted to the life p(
adventure. ,
The young man had gone to do rail
roading work in New Zealand and his
taste for daring was satisfied In pioneer

excellent horseman and marksman who
could pl?k off a bounding antelope at
1000 yards, he also had a physique equal
to any hardship. Aa the war progressed
Mrs. Mahon hpird less often from her
son, but understood that It was difficult
for soldiers to write often.
About five months ago, on August ,
Richard sent a postcard to his mother,
saying he was well. He must have been
killed shortly after that as his mother's
letter, which was returned, should have
reached her son about August 19.
