THE ANONYMOUS FIEND AGAIN
Epworth Leaguers and Christian En

cessful Socials Result of a Bar
Room Brawl Charles Hartley, the
New York Ventriloquist, Gives Free
Performances News Notes.
The family of a man living on Four
teenth street, near the corner of Lu
Z'rne, has been annoyed of late by re
ceiving auuonyraoas letters from an
individual who also pesters other peo
ple with his nefarions conduct.
The letters usually come through
the malls, and occasionally are pushed
under the front doors. The tenor of the
unwelcome missives is of the ordinary
abusive and indecent style, but some
threaten injury to the family aud pro
mis to carry out the threat withont
delay. Each succeeding letter has been
growing more demonstrative in its ex
pression and the folks who receive them
are becoming alarmed.
Suspicion attaches to one whom it is
believed is the guilty person and he is
being watched. His fisndish employ
ment may not terminate until he hud's
himself confronted with sufficient
proof to land him in the penitentiary.

On the Fly.
While the numerous summer rosorts
adjacent to and accessible from Scran
ton should tend to make this city a de
lightful place to spend the season,
thousands of residents scurry away at
the first pull of hot air and no more is
seen of them until September. The
same is true of New York, which is one
of the greatest summer resorts in the
world, and yet whose citizens, the first
of Juno, fairly fall over one another in
a mad scramble to get away and escape
s from a pestilence. Thousands upon
thousands of strangers flock into the
great metropolis and in a measure fill
the gap caused by the outpoor.
New York is hot, woefully hot, in
summer, but as a tourist or pleasure
seeking center it is unsurpassed. Its
summer visitors during the day can
choose between tbe great, broad Hud
son river, with Its palatial steamers,
the breezes of the sound, or ocean trips
to various nearby seaside resorts. Tbe
most popular places reached by water
are West Poiut and Tarrytown on tbe
Hudson: Glen Island on the Long
Island sound; Long Branab, Manhat
tan b uch and Iiockaway on the At
lantic coast. These witter jaunts are
varied by trips to tbe races, the only"
West Brighton where John Y. McKane
held away, Westchester county, or
Staten Island, all tilled with hundreds
of interesting localities. Hot I you
say? Not a bit of it. It's too warm
for comfort in the city, bat nothing
can stop the ocean, bay and sound
breezes which play over tbe adjacent
territory.
There are a thousand and ona ways to
pleasantly pass theevenitfgsin the city.
When the first theatre roof-garden
was established some years ago, tbe
idea jumped into such popular favor
that today there are a number of them
and all are of the eminently reaped
able order. Here, high above tbe sub
dued din of the -avenues aud in an al
titude conducive to eool night breezis,
one can lounge at a table, talk over
the day's doings, sip plain or
piuk lemonade, observe metropolitan
life and inoidentnlly be entertained by
the best grade of variety or specialty
performers. Then there are numerous
theatres supplied with the latest ice
cooling appliances where the light and
acceptable plays are given during the
summer season. Surely, when one
tumbles into bed at tbe hotel he may
well exclaim "great is' New York as a
summer resort."
A new departure has been inaugur
ated at tho Erie station in Port Jervis,
by placing plainly marked sign cards

invention of Trainmaster Frauk Hitr

BOYS UNDER AGE EMPLOYED
Condition of Affairs Not the Fault of
the Operators, Who Have Been De
liberately Imposed Upon A Serious
Question from a Medical and Moral
Point of View Many Physicians
Express Themselves Freely.
The artiole in this department of
Tub Tribune a week ago, calling at
tention to the fact that many boys were
employed in and about the mines of the
North End who have not yet attained
the age required by law, attracted
much attention and was commented
upon extensively. An old man, an ex
perienced miner, who nas been em
ployed in digging dusky diamonds for
tbe greater part of his life, said to the
reporter yesterday:
"It makes me quite sick to see the
mere children who are workiug in and
about tne mines hereabouts. Tbe pa
rents of these children are tho ones
who are to blame. Instead of sending
their offspring to sohool, avarioious
ness and in some cases poverty, causes
these parents to send the boys to work
at a. wry tender age. It is not the
fault of the operators, for it is no ad
vantage to them to employ these
youths. Thoy are deliberately imposed
upon by parents and guardians who
wilfully misrepresent the age of tbe
boys for the purpose of securing em
ployment for them."
"The mutter is worthy of attention;
first, because there is a clear infringe
ment of the law whloh states that boys
onder 14 shall not be employed in tbe
mines and boys under 12 in tbe break
ers, Notwithstanding this many boys
are met returning home from work
who freely confess to ages of 9, 10 and
11 years."
MEDICAL ASPECT OF CASE.
From a medical point of view there
ia still more ground to attack the sys
tern, as the future of these poor boys is
deoided and the decision is a cruel one.
Crippled iu the years when tbelr de
velopment should be free and unre
strained tbe effects upon their whole
lives is pitiable. In mentioning the
matter to some North End medical
men The Tribune reporter elicited tbe
following remarks'
Dr. Pullivan, one of tY oldest prac
titioners, stated: "The employment of
these Utile boys at such an eurly age
and nnder such unhealthy conditions
must teud to deter very much their
physical and mental development and,
I might add, moral development also."
Dr. Donne: "From my professional
experience among these boys, I have
had every opportunity of witnessing
the great barm wrought upon them in
preventing tbe maturing of their physi
cal and mental faculties. Their ad
vancement is checked and as a result
their employment is dangerous to their
present health, and eep?cially does it
sow tbe seeds of disease for the fnture.
It must be condemned from the pbyai.
cal aspects of the matter."
Dr. Smith: "Not only does it inter
fere with the present development of
the boys but their future welfare as
well as that of their offsprings is at
stake. For example one of the first
questions asked when a child is brought
to a physician is tbe family history of
the patient and probably a heart or
lung trouble may be directly traeed to
abuse in the early days of the father
due to inbalatiou of the dust of a coal
breaker or lifting of heavy weights in
the mine while the organs were devel
oping. This feature alone from a phy
sical standpoint is sufficient to cou
detnn the employment of these little
boys in the breakers nnd mines to say
nothing from a moral pa nt of view."
