The special committee appointed at
the last meeting to inquire into tho
mutter of securing a permanent trained
nurse presented the following report,
after which the meeting adjourned:
To the board of poor directors of the
cranton poor district:
Your special committee to which was ro
forred tho question of securing a trained
nurse in the permnuent service of the
board for tho care of the sick among the
outdoor poor of the district hereby report
tuat we ciiliea tbo outuoor physicians In
conference at a meetiug of the committee
nt the poor board rooms on Aug. 0. Tho
subject was thoroughly discussed by your
committee and the physicians.
Our outdoor physicinus state that thero
are few cnnes In which tho services of a
trained nurRe is necessary. A Inrge pro-
Eortion of the sick poor people prefer to
e cared for by their friouda.
We have concluded that however desir
able the services of a trained nurse may
do in special cases, we Uo not think It
either necessary or dosirable to retain a
trnined nurse permanently as a mere vis
itor of the sick between whom and the at
tending physicians conflicts may arise, oc
casioning aunoyanco to the board and
damaiio to our present excellent medical
service.
We therefore recommend that in all
cases where the services of a trained nnrse
are necessary an effort bu made to have
the patient admitted to a hospital, and on
failure, to secure hospital accomodations,
or when it is dangerous to remove the pa
tient the director of the district be author
ized as heretofore to secure the services
of a traiued nnrse and whatever else may
be necessary for the comfort and proper
enreof the patient.
A GRAND PRODUCTION.
E lobar d III Will Delight the Crltloi
Nrxt Wednotday Night.
From a source unquestioned as to its
veracity, it is learned that Richard III
at the I'rothingham next Wednesday
night will be on a scale of beauty and
msgninoence never attempted here be
fore. Play-goers are assured of a most
graceful and artistic interpretation
of the leading roles and a thoroughly
reailstio presentation of tho thrilling
battle, an entertaining spectacular cor
onation, and a most impressive funeral
procession. These are details that nr
not present at the average tragedy pro
duction. Mr. Owen D. Jones will surprise
many I y his artistic handling of Rich
ard, giving a genuinely attractive ren
dition of this exacting role. Mr. Jos
eph Ransoma mny be deponded on to
repeat his form t 8iiccses in II.nry
VI and Richmond, while the beautiful
Miss Alice Firchild, last ye'ir leading
lady with the Rune . Coghlan company,
and long with Frederick Warde, tho
famous tragedian, may be deponded on
for a finished presentation of Queen
Elizabeth. Miss Tillie Lewis will bo
seen at her best in the Duchess of
York, and Miss Kittie McCabe will not
disappoint as Lady Anne. All in all
the playgoers of Scranton may antici
pate something exceedingly fine in the
forthcoming production of Richard at
the Frothingham next Wednesday
evening. The sale of reserved seats
will begin at Powell's musio store on
Monday morning.

OAGSOLIA ONE OF THE WINNERS
Evonts Captured by Two Favorites
and Two Outsiders Frank Haz
znrd's Dash Was a Ringer Jack
and Frank H in the Leading Divi
sionA Fast Track and Good
Fields Details of the Sport.
The usual number of persons wit
nessed the races of the G'titlemen's
Driving club yesterday. Generally,
the heats were closely contested and
the truck was fast.
Although the first race was announc
ed to re, culled at 2 o'clock it was
r.i:i! 'v it half hour later before the
liorsea were called to the post for the
first bent and the lint heat of the last
race was not decided until S 45
o'clock. Without disparaging the
efforts of the club to provide clenu
and sprited sport, there is a
vast firld for improvement in
leing more expeditions. The twenty
minutes allowed between heats of pro
fessional races is to glre the public
'line to make bets and is the custom
where mile heats are trotted. At tho
Driving club's rncos only half-mile heats
are drivou, and with a 5-minute Wait
between the heats of encit rnco the
animals would have a 20-miuute rest
between heats.
That is the way the grandstand audi
ence of yesterday commented, and as
the success of Xht club's races depends
upon its ability to please the spectators,
the proper officers will probably reetify
the mutter at future meetings.
DASH WAS A P.INGER,
Yesterday's road race and 2 50 event
were won handily by Frank Ilazznrd's
Dash and Dr. Hill's Jack. The former
made his debut on the track and went
both heats under a strong pull. Ho
dearly proved himself eligible to the
2. SO class and will probably bo ad
vaucod to that event the next time be
starts.'
The H-minnte and 2 40 classes devel
oped the best events of the meeting.
I. n quired five heat3 to decide the
former, St. Nick being scratched after
being driven two heats and Kitty be
ing withdrawn after coming in hope
lessly last in tho first heat. The three
horses remaining were never separated
ty more than a row lengths in the last
three heats and kept the crowd on tip
toe until tho race was decided.
The star performers of the day Bp-
pearea in tua 2.4'J event, and proved
conclusively that horse racing purely
conducted is indeed the "sport of
Kings. Magnolia proved herself the
speedier of the high grade qulntetto of
entries. Three heats were trotted, and
never until the stretch was reaobed at
lesst, was a heat a sinecure for the
winner. Magnolia's victory was a pop
pultir one, as she had a host of admir
ers among tho spectators, but the re
sult might hav9 been different if Ab.i
gail bad not had a fit of the sulks after
capturing the first heat.

" Keeley driven by W. Jermyn,
Dash might have walked in and won
the first race. Fr (!, considering that
iiei was unioriunnte in securing
positions in the scoring, made th
best showing of the others. When Mr.
Dunn overcome the stage fright, so
peculiar to a driver's first efforts, his
horse will yot win a primary grade
race.
In scoring for the first heat of the
second rsce, Mr. Boamans turned in
front of the field and in the collision
which followed the nneumatio of Dr.
Wentz cam to grief. Jack won, with
liuko arm ret nana as un moat dan

Hilly, Poor Richard nnd Frank II
were the only competitors in the 3 00
class after bt. Niok and Kitty had ben
withdrawn, &ucn bad a turn at lead
ing dnring the third heat. Frank II
went the distance to the quarter pole
in forty seconds flit, with Poor Rich
nrd for close company. Billy made up
considerable lost ground and got
plactxl second after a whipping drive
mine stretch, rranic u went the
finul heat without a skip aud might
hve been beaten out by Billy if the
latter had not left his ieot at the head
of the stretch.
RACE OP THB 6TARS.
Abagail won the first heat lu the
final race after getting the worst of a
noor start Dr. Wentz played for
position in the soeond heat and won
quite eusily, the poor behavior of
Ku')ley and Absgall leaving Johnny
and John, her only dangerous com
petitors. Keeley and Magnolia bad it
out in the last heat until well down
the stretch when the bay went into
the air and the mare won in the fast
time of 1:141.
Altogether the day was satisfactory
in point of actual racing and weather
and when the officials ean figure how
to have four races trotted between
2:30 and 5 o'clock the attendance will
be doubled.

BULLET IN HIS DIIAIN
Carl Pilger, of Petersburg, Found
Dead with a Bullet Hole in
His Forehead.
Carl Pilger. an aged resident of
Petersburg, was found dead in his
room lust evening at 7 30 o'clock with
a larire bullet w mud in the oeuter of
his forehead.
His family hoard the loud report of a
pistol and rushing to his room found
him lying on the floor with the blood
spurting from tho gaping hole in bis
forehead. By his side was a rusty old
double-barreled horso pistol with one
barrel still lo idud.
While the uppenrances aud the evi
dence of the family go to show that
Pilger's death was caused bv bis own
hand there is still an air of mistery about
the sllur whioh may nave a tendency
to cause many to sooul the idea of sulf
destruction.
Pilger lod a perfectly sober and
straightforward life and inquiry In the
neighborhood failed to elicit any rea
son that could bo assigned for Pilger '
taking his own life.
The coroner was notified last night
and went to Petersburg at a late hour
to make an investigation.
DR. KAGGERTY AND THE BUOGET.
Manager Hill Comes and Interviews tho
Doctor.
The hearing cf the cnss of P. J.
O'Connor and John J. Niland, the two
agents of tho Elmira Budget who were
arrested a few days since at the in
stance of Dr. Uaggerty for soiling
papars on Sunday, was postponod yes
terday at the request of the prosecutor.
James Hill, proprietor of the Budget,
has boen obliged several tinios to pay
fines and costs of prosecutions of Mr.
Niland on this same charge, nnd is
gettiug somewhat tired of it. He ob
jects because the old blue law of 1701
has been interpreted so literally, but
since it has. he can only defend bim
self and his business, and hereafter if
bis business is interfered with he would
make a general application of the Sun
day law throughout the city.
Mr. II ill came to Scranton on Thurs
day and had an interview with Dr.
Haggorty which onded in an amicable
settlement of the case, and he thinks
that hereafter his agents will not be
troubled.

CONTEMPT FOR BIR DIDDLEB3CK
Powers Says the Secretary of the
Pennsylvania State League Is an
Ass Scranton Has a Good Club
but Needs Team Work and En
couragement Allentown Players
Sign Eastern League Contracts.
Everything is seroiie in the Eastern
league ssys ProsidiTiit Pat Powers.
in the first place the rocky Lsinghnm-
ton club has been replac-d by Allen
town and the Erie Blackbirds will be
probably transferred to Toronto before
Monday morning. Every club in th-
lo gu4 is making money with the ex
ception of Erie and there are applica
tions on ule from Kochestor, NewarK,
New Havon, Worcester, Raiding and
Harrisburg for uuy vacancy that mty
occur.
Iu relation to the Diddlebnok bug
bear, Mr: Powers said to a TitinUNE re
porter: "I have been advid by the
National board that Diddlebook has
filed a long list of charges against me
nd that 1 noed not worry my head
over them. I have been governed in
all my noiious iu connection with the
ndminsioti of the Pennsylvania Stat
league clubs by the iidvio and counsel
of members of the National board,
especially President Byrnes, of tha
Urooklyu club. 1 have treated and win
continue to treat the Diddlobock
charges with contempt. "
"Will you attend the meeting of tue
National board to answer those
charges?'' he was nskud.
A ROAST FOR DIDDLEBOCK.
"If I did. I would be as big an ass ns
Diddlobock. No. sir, I will not attend
that meeting. I will bo in Canada
when the meeting occurs."
Speaking of the Scranton club Mr.
Powers stated in his opinion it is able
to cope with any club in the Eastern
league. The m-m lack team work hut
that difiiculty will be overcome in a
short time. They will also bespurrei
to better playing bv a little encourage
ment from the grand stand. Some of
the men believe that thoro is a feeling
against thorn hor on account of the
ciiango In management and the sooner
they are convinoed to the contrary tho
sooner thoy will pitch iu with a Tim to
show what they can do.
The Scranton club will be greatly
strengthened for today's game. White
head and Delaney of Binghamtou havo
been signed to nlay third and pitcher
respectively. Wnitohead arrived hero
last night and will play third today,
Hiokey going to right field.
Allentown has secured Duryen, of
I'.inghamton, and both Mulvery and
Mulligan signed Eistern luague con
tracts last night. Sweeney, the only
other kicker who is wanted, will come
on today. Word wits sent after bim
last night armed with indorsements
that will no doubt bring him back into
the Kolly fold. The Allentown aggre
gation will hereafter be known as the
Yonkers club. They will play all their
home games on the New York Polo
grounds, opening up there with Buffalo
on Sept. 7. The schedule will be ar
ranged so that Yonlcers and JNew iorK
games will not conflict.
KOOSAN STABBED.
Probable Fatal Ending cf a Fight Over
a Bottle of Whisky.
Last night about 11 o'clock a crowd
of young toughs were drinking and
having a general drunken carousal
on the green near the corner of San
ders street and Birney avenue, whon
Mickey Noonan, one of the gang, after
a little dispute with Jim Dnnleavy, re
ceived two stab wounds in his left
side.
Aboutill o'clock Noonan brought In
some beer in a pail from one of the Ba
loous nearby, and refused to give Dun
leavy any of it.
A fight resulted, during which
Noonan was Btabbed twice in tho left
side in the region ot the heart. After
the stabbing Dutiic-avy ran away, and
at last accounts had not been cap
tured. Noonan was sent to the Lacka
wanna hospitol where his wounds were
examined nnd pronounced serious, if
not perhaps fatal.
At an early hour this morning offi
cers surrounded Duuleavy's home, and
were met with hot water. Daring the
excitement Dunleavy managed to make
his escape.

or his private bills aft or that mtuner, and
it is not right for any church, of whatever
denomination, to do it. It is wrong, It is
a fin, and canm t bo blemod of God.
when the tabernacle was built In the
wilderness, aud th temple in Jerusalem,
the Jews never thought ot paying for
them by beer selling and dai.clng. They
brought their offerings and laid them on
the altar of the Lord, without expectation
of anything iu return. That is tbo Christ
ian and Biblical way, and npou such offer
ings the bles-dues of God will rest.
If the Christiun church bold fairs and
picnics with beer-vending and dancinir.
where is the line ot deniarkatlon between
the church of Christ ami the world? We
should not only be Christians on Sunday
when at worship, but also every week day
mrougnout our lire until U l is pleased to
take in. We are individually resnonible
for every word and deed here, and what
we sow that also we shall reap, aud it U
so witn tho collection ot individuals or the
congregation.
A church has, furthermore, the duty of
teaching the world the way of life, not
ouly by precept iu the sanctuary tin the
Lioru a day, but awo by good example ev.
ery day of tho week. Does a church do
that by holding fairs and picuics, soiling
beer and dancing? 1 onco attended such a
picnic and tho things 1 then beard and saw
will never bo forgotten. Lldurs of a so
called Christian congregation of this city
drunk on the picnic grounds and uttering
jucu vile words as no respectable man
would tolerate In his home. When I saw
that I folt sore and went homo
with a bleeding heart. This was the
first aud last time I over went near such a
picnic. Christian men and women, is it
right before God and holy writ, to do this
thing? No. Proverbs xiv. 84. suvs that
"sin is a reproach to any people," and so it
is in this instance. Fr. IIoi.tkh,
Evangelical Lutheran Pastor.
