THE SCKAOTOX TRIBUTE MOTDAr MORNING, OCTOBER 9, 1894.
T
BATTLE COKTO A CLOSE
This Week the Final Straggle for Su
premacy Will Take Place.
BRIGHT REPUBLICAN OUTLOOK
All the Indications Point to a Decisive Re
publican Victory-Meetings That Have
yieen Arranged for the Balance
of the Campaign.
This will be the most Interesting
week of the campaign. Candidates
will be hurrying to and fro strengthening-
their fences and encouraging waver
ing lieutenants, while an army of ora
tors will Invade all parts of the county
to enlighten the dear people about what
the different political parties are willing
to do for them.
The events of the last week serve to
strengthen the belief that the victory of
the Republican party will be clear and
decisive.
That the Democrats have become
thoroughly desperate is evidenced by
the efforts being made to deceive the
people. The Times continues to stick
to Its "1 a day" story about F. H. dem
ons, but makes no effort to substantiate
it, although Mr. demons and City
Clerk Lavelle have positively stated
that no such remark was ever made by
Mr. demons at a council meeting. The
Times is evidently a firm believer in
the policy of lying and sticking to the
lie.
Me Too Burke.
Michael Turnover Burke, the Demo
cratic candidate for legislature in the
Fourth district, la another who believes
in sticking to what he says, even at the
risk of convicting himself of being a
monumental falsifier. Mr. Burke's ef
frontery in persisting that he voted for
the Farr free text book bill against the
mountains of evidence to the contrary,
Is one of 'the highly amusing, if not
edifying, features of the campaign, and
a few years ago Mr. Burke was a school
teacher and had the moulding of young
minds intrusted to his care.
The visit of General Hastings and
party, followed by Congressman Bro
Bius and ex-Lieutenant Governor Da
vles, to the county during the last week
aroused great enthusiasm for the Re
publican candidates and redoubled in
terest that members of the party take
In the campaign. This week the work
of spreading the light will continue and
meetings will be held every night

Slngcrly'a Visit to the City.
It Is the intention of the Democratic
leaders to use every effort to give Can
didate Slngerly a big- receptlofi when
he visits this city this week. There
will be a parade of clubs of the county,
red fire and all that sort of thing, fol
lowed by oratory at the armory on the
beauties of free trade. It Is hoped that
ft 1 ii i yt injup ui wiin muu win
strengthen the wavering lines and
keep the party In something like a com
pact mass on election day.
The candidates doubt the eflloacy of
the remedy and each la out working for
himself individually. All thought of
standing together was abandoned some
time ago, and each Democratic nomi
nee is now pursuing a tireless still
hunt for votes.
The Prohibitionists have also reserved
their heavy cannonading for thla week
They will have Joseph Cook to deliver

Charles L. Hawley. candidate for trov.

OUR LEADING LECTURER.
There Is No Better One in America Than
Kev. Joseph Cook.
Joseph Cook, who will sneak at the
Frothingham Nov. 1, has lectured in
Boston nineteen years. He faces 3,000
men and women in Tremont temple
every Monday noon. His lectures cover
all reform topics and he has published
eleven volumes which are widely clrcu-
iiiieu at nome ana abroad.
Air. Cook probably ranks as Ameri
ca's greatest living lecturer.
IN LOCAL THEATERS.
Ihnes and his famous New York band.
which is now the biggest, as it is the
oest in tiie world, will appear here
again in grand musical festival of "War
artd Peace" at the Frothingham on
Saturday afternoon and night; Nov. 3.
This organization comes directly from
Pittsburg, where it achieved unprece
dented musical triumphs in Its seven
weeks' engagement at the Western
Pennsylvania exposition. During the
engagement in this city this celebrated
body of muslcluns will give two per
formances of the great musical histori
cal spectacle of War and Peace,
which was composed by Innes himself
especially for the recent twenty-elgth
national encampment of the Grand
Army of the Republic, which convened
in September last In the Smoky City.
War and Peace was perfomed Jive
times during the encampment week,
and not less than 100,000 people heard
the several renditions given by this
great organization, .assisted by four
vocal artists of renowned reputations,
a battery of rapid fire electric artillery,
several companies of armed militia, and
war veterans. The spectacle created a
most profound sensation, and at the
close of each performance the vast au
dience rose to their feet en masse,
cheering and joining In the last thrilling
air of "America." In Scranton the per
formance will be given by the gig band
of fifty musicians, the quartette of solo
ists, battery of artillery, and all the
other accessories which controbuted to
the great success of the initial perform
ance. Among tha vocalists will be
found Miss Martha Garrison Miner, one
of the most marvelous sopranos of the
age, a young lady whose singing has
created a genuine furore wherever sne
has appeared. The others are Mr. C. C.
Ferguson, whose reputation as a tenor
is well known all over the country; H.
M. Imano, basso, and Miss Louise En-
gel, who supported Mme. Paul and
Mme. Nordica on their respective tours
during the last two amusement seasons.
The box office will open for sale of seats
Wednesday morning, 9 o clock, at regu
lar prices.

Mr. Pratt's opinion of "Fantasma,"
which was presented In Wllkes-Barre
on Friday and Saturday evenings, aa
it appeared In the Wllkes-Barre depart
ment of the scranton Kepuuiican: a
packed houf e wi enticed to the Grand
Opera house last evening by tne iame
of "Fantasma," one of the most suc
cessful of the enchantment school or
dramas. Elaborate as this production
has seemed upon previous representa
tions in this city, that elaboration has
been vastly accentuated by the genius
rf the p'.age conjurer, as every season
rtivplons new and more stnrtiinar i"'
mystifying devices for surprising and
amazln? the show-goingmultltude. The
eTects, spectacularly speaking, are daz-
'Ing. ann some ul them almost aeiy
known methods of deception. There is
enly one feat'irc in which this "Fan
tasma," or rut! er Its personnel, Is weak.
It needs a dozen or so of pretty faces to
fill ".he p'ae s ef hoie shown last even
ing. In every other particular "Fan
tasma" is qu:le all that could be ex
uded o. ire or vlnclal gtHce."
II ll li , , , .
The announcement of the Initial per
formance of the "White Concert" series
at the Frothingham Tuesday evening,
Oct. 30, will be delightful news to the
many admirers of music. Mr. Froth
ingham brought the Ladles' Symphony
orchestra to this city from Boston for
the special purpose of musical advance
ment In our city and to establish here
the only ladles' grand orchestral con
cert company, which in itself is an ex
cellent advertisement for Scranton;
hence our people should show their ap
preciation of the fact by filling the ele
gant theater next Tuesday night. The
series of concerts will, consist of six
performances and the price charged to
each will be only DO cents, there being
no extra charge Jor reserved seats.
Special vocal talent will be engaged

Jolly Nellie McIIenry, the charming
and vivacious comedienne, who has
been crowding the theaters nlehtlv all
over the coi i.try, 'omes i the Academy
of Music on Wednesday evening in her
circo-comedy, "A Night at the Circus."
It is a farce-comedy with a plot. some.
thing rather exceptional to this style
or entertainment; nevertheless, the clr
cus has a well founded plot that can be
followed with a great deal of interest
The, pretty music and catchy songs are
all new, and the specialties novel and
original. "A Night at the Circus" Is
said to be a refined and charming enter
tainment, well worth seeing.
II II II
"Uncle Tom's Cabin," as produced by
the Markoe company, will hold the
boards at Davis theater this week. It
Is a new and original dramatization by
MIssMarkoeof Harriet Beecher Stowe's
famous story, and is pronounced by the
press and public, wherever It has been
given, as the best presentation of "Uncle
Tom's Cabin" ever seen. It Is produced
by a carefully selected company of dra
matlo stars. There Is also a band of
genuine Mississippi river Jubilee sing'
ers, the members of which render some
delightful selections.
II M II .-
"Lem Kettle," the new American
comedy which Mr. Tim Murphy, George
Richards and Eugene Canfield will pre
sent at the Academy on Thursday
night, is by Henry Guy Carleton, whose
recent plays have added materially to
the reputation of Nat Goodwin and
John Drew. "Lem Kettle" has a curi
ously quaint and musical ring in it
that savors of. laughable situations and
droll Incidents.

MYSTERY OF THE ANGELS
Rev. W. H. Tcarce Says it Cannot Be
Solved Until Eternity,
THEIR WORK OX THIS EARTH
Myriads and Millions Throng the Avenues
of Life-Examples of Their Powerful
Ministrations to Man-Do They
Minister Today?
A large congregation assembled at
the Elm Park church yesterday morn
ing to hear an admirable discourse
from the pastor, Rev. W. H. Pearce, D.
D., upon the theme of "Angels." The
sermon was eminently practical and
was a broad-minded and thoroughly
evangelistic exposition of the Scrip
ture, which would be received by the
learned theologian and the illiterate
with equal pleasure. The reverend
gentleman based his remarks from
Psalm lxxxxl, 11: "For He shall give
his angels charge over thee, to keep
thee in all thy ways." In the course of
his sermon, Mr. Pearce said:
"It is often asked whether there Is
such an order of being as angels; and
they are so far removed from our com
prehension, and their mode of minis
trations are so mysterious, that a dis
course on this subject is often regarded
as unprofitable. Let us observe In the
first place the contrast between the In
strumentality for which they are em
ployed and the purpose for which that
Instrumentality is used. They are
spoken of as powerful beings, excelling
In strength, endowed with terrible
power and thereby overcoming physi
cal and natural enemies, devils and
vast armies of men. Job reports that
they held the four winds of heaven. In
executing their orders from God and
carrying out his purposes they smote
the men of Bodom and sent fire and,
storm which swept away the city; they
smote the first born of Egypt, and an
angol held the sword between heaven
and earth. Angels destroyed 75,000
men, sealed the mouths of the Hons
while Daniel slept with the peaceful
ness of a child, and when Peter was In
prison, held by shackles and chains,
the angels touched his shackles so
lightly and softly that the keepers were
not awakened.

JUDGES WERE UNFAIR.
The Allegation Made with Regard to One
of Kvents of Saturday's Kuces.
Saturday was an Ideal day for racing,
but the sport of kings was divested of
some of its pleasure in the races of the
Gentleman's Driving club. Only seven
horses started In three events and In
one race the decision of the judges was
held to be very unfair.
Four entries were scratched In the
2.40 class, which left only L. T. Payne's
big black gelding Duke, and J. H. Suth
erland s brown gelding Brownie E in
the race. Brownie won the first by
several lengths. In the second heat

Duke was placed first, although he ran
for a furl dig In the back stretch and
beat Brownie out by only a length.
Duke won the third beat by a scant
length. The decision of the judges was
not prcl 'sted by B'o'.nle's driver.
Dr. tfiuo.r's brown mae Abigail,
and J. H. Ladwlg's sorrel gelding Blue
were beaten In the 2.30 class by G. M.
Shelly's Fanny Blair. The result was a
surprise to the - talent ,as the race
looked a sinecure for thtf speedy sorrel,
and Abigail vns expeoted to at least
get second position. It only required
two heats to decide the race.
Mr. Shelly's Beauty J won two heats
out of three from M. T. Keller's mare
B C.in the fifty class. .Each heat was
hotly contested. ' !.
Jim Mears, driven 'by Cook, and
Charlie Stllson, ' driven by Westlake,
trotted three exhibition mile heats.
Mears won the first heat, Stllson the
second, and the third was a dead heat
The time was 2.24, 2.20W, 2.19.
