The members of the Associated Churitles and a large number of women prominent In pity charitable work were uddr.'sscd yeswday afternoon In the Albright library ball by Edmund I..

Mr. Starr is the general apront of the Children's Aid society of that city and during hist re marks rehearsed the work of the or ganization, explained its police power under act of parliament and enlight ened the nudience particularly on Child Savins," which wus the topic of his address. ilr. Starr la In the city as a lecturer for the Epworth league convention, which for two days has been In session on the West Side, lie has made a noble record In child saving work and In his address pluced the purpose and methods of the Children"! Aid society of Canada In a new anil interesting light, lie said: "Following. t"he effort to establish our society In Ontario, parliament appoint eil a Prison Reform cominlssloti to In iiulre Into the proper care of criminals and investigate the best methods of pre venting crime. This commission made exhaustive research and their report was "received and Hied.' This reference simply illustrates the beginning of our work and the death which often follows red tape charity. Sentlmentallsm charity is false. charily; it does a little icood unda great deal of evil; It brings about no permanent good. Prevents Older Critnlnnlity. "The whole -matter of child savins rests upon the proved condition that children properly reared and nurtured prevent criminality anions older per sons. It follows then that the state should be a mother to the child In law fact and truth. The child Is the sub Jeet of the state. In fact; It Is the sub ject of the state before birth, yet It is the common practice of the authorities to neglect the young until it has il veloped viclousness or crime. The so ciety I represent Is really the parent the child In truth under the laws of the state. "The act of parlhunetit under which the society operates gives us the right to assume control of the young when ever its surroundings or life warrant the action; police power Is given us. These principles should not make it ap pear that ours Is a prosecuting society. It Is In all Its intents und methods society to care for neglected children Under 14 years of age. The act clearly describes a neglected child as one who begs, steals, sleeps in the open air. wan ilers, has no abode, hus evil associates or vicious parents, is idle or dissolute or keeps bad company; It also specific that a child Is deserted whose parent Is Imprisoned for crime." Hoes Not Lneouruge l.vil. The various classes of neglected children and cases for illustration wera described by Mr. Starr, who dwelt par ticularly upon the society's endeavor to teach parents that they mist take proper cure of the child. He called at tention to the fact that lnstend of being confined ia " institutions- children are sent to well ordered households and In many cases Christian homes. It tends to decrease the number of Inmates of charitable homes and does not put premium on the sin of the parents, be cause. If not prosecuted, they ure en- cnuruged to provide a proper home for their children, who are returned when circumstances warrant. Wherever the society la organized In cities over 10,000 population a "shelter' or temporary homo Is provided until cases ure investigated or a home Is found for the child. Wherever the so ciety sees fit to establish a branch the law gives it the right to do so irrespec tlve of the wishes of town or city councils, who are obliged to furnish the "shelter." Ituther than being expeu jlve. the system Is cheap and relieves public institutions of Inmates. Mr. Starr concluded by adapting the old saw, "Take euro of the pence uu the pounds will take core of them Helves,", to "take care of the children and the nation will take care of itself. Will Scranton Organie. In the discussion which followed and la which Colonel 11. M. Boles, Rev. Rogers Israel, Mr. Starr and others participated, It appeared that Pennsyl vuulu has a Jaw grunting police powe to properly organize children's aid so cletles. ' Mr. Israel, as secretary of the Asso dated churitles, stated that the work of child saving hud become woefullv necessary, but Is beyond the power o: the association. All the foundling and children homes throughout the city are crowded. The National Child Saving society was referred to by Colonel Holes as a organization whose purpose is to find homes for the children of other so cieties, und which could be secured as an agent If a Children's Aid society ex isted In Scranton. It itlso was stated that Instead of the expense of building a "shelter" the Catholic und Protestant insttutloiiK of the city could probably he used for such a temporary purpose, nnd the number of their regular in mates decreased as rapidly as prop- homes ure found for children Individ ually. The discussion did not assume a tren directly towurd organizing a pollce-cm powered Children's Aid society uudt state luws In this city. Nevertheless, those who heard the lecture are people charitably inclined, und if the move ment continues they will be better qua Hied to carry It to a successful Issue, A vote of thanks was tendered Mr. THROW IT AWAY.

The question of whether the passage of the ordinance of Jan. 28, ISM, by the Ity councils did not ratify the act of the defendant company In making the 1111 complained of Is not free from doubt.

Hearing in an injunction Case lie fore j JuJge Uunstcr. , A hearing was held yesterday after noon before Judge Gunster In the in junction case of the' Delaware und Hud son Canal company ugainst Watklns & Hughes to restrain them from mining Coal under a five acre plot In Carbon dale. The company Is represented by ex-Judge Jess'up und J. H. Torrey, and the defendants by .Ward & Horn. The Delaware and Hudson claims title to the land by tltlu back to the slate and continued possession. The defend ants, who are lessees of the lund from Airs.

LEGAL COMPLICATIONS. They lluve Arisen Over the Kefusul of the Keluware and Hudson Canal Company to Allow a Crossing to Be Laid. The trouble between the Luckuwunna Street Railway company and the Dela ware und Hudson Canal company, with regard to crossings ut Wyoming avenue and Spring street in Aloosie, came up before court yesterday In' the form of applications for injunctions. Kails have been laid und electric curs are now running on the extension of the Lackawanna Street Railway company's road us far as Mooslc. The Intention of the company is to extend the line to Plttstou, but this cunuot be done unless some means of crossing the Delaware &nd Hudson tracks at JUiosle Is discov ered:. Thut company refused to :allow the' tlectrle rofid people to lay a cross ing ovr Its tracks, and for Several weekil past have had the iTossing guarded so thnt It would be Impossible for any one to surprise them und get the crossing In place before they could be checked. This condition of affairs resulted In the Issuing of the Injunctions asked for esterda. The IClectrlc railway peo pie ask the ciurt to restrain the Dela ware and Hudson company front inter ferlng with them In exercising their charter right to pass through the streets of, Lackawunnn township even though It does lead them across the tracks of the, Delaware and Hudson Canal com pany. That company to preserve Its rights asked for an Injunction to re strain .the Electric roud from crossing Its tracks, alleging that a grade cross ing at that point would be attended by grave danger to tha passengers travel ling on its trains, those of the Jersey Central company, which use the Dela ware and Hudson tracks, and the cars of the Electric Railway company.

To each of them was added acidulated water, but to one was mude further addition of a dose of Paskola from a bottle which your reporter had been instructed to purchase In the open market. Both Jars were 'now warmed to the temperature of the body, and thus kept for two hours. At the end of this time the Jars Were removed from the dainty little oven in which they, hud stood, when lo! and behold, we found thnt whereas the content of one of them had undergone no change whatever, the food in the other, t which had been added the Paskola, had lternllly dis solved like so much sugar, and a clear, limpid solution was the result. This, to our uninitiated eyes, wus most inu'r- elous, and almost savored of magU', for we hud often seen beef boiled in water without otherw ise changing, than to part with Us color. Yet here, nt the gentle temperature of the body, It hud been rendered completely soluble. The chemist, while not surprised, was no less pleased than ourselves, lie ob served: "Gentlemen, If you would know whether or not Paskola posseses de cided digestive properties, look to those Jars for an answer." The evidence was oncluslve, for the object lesson before us was so simple that we cutild not fail 10 comprehend the matter. He told 11S thut the base of paskola was arti ficially-digested starch and that for this reason It was a flesh -producing food vastly superior to cod-liver nil or any of the nauseous drugs heretofore used for this purpose. He stated, furthermore, that us we had seen, li possessed ' the . property of digesting other foods in. the stomach, and thus was an active aid to 'digestion, il whs permitted to sketch the Jars after the experiment hud .been completed, as re produced ubove. The sediment shown by the shading In jui' No. 1 represents the undigested food as when pluced In It. We Were told that thousands of sufferers had used Paskola Willi. greut benefit, and were shovVn n kirfee number uf letters In this connection, 1 quote from a few of them as follows: . Airs. W. T. Andrews, of Gold Hill, Ala., says that she hat been treated for years for Indigestion by the most emi nent physicians with only temporary benefit. She began taking Paskola four weeks ago, has already galnerft-ight i.h) pounds, and now eats steak,' chicken, and In fact everything her appetite craves. ; R. P. Cross, of 74 Alichlgan avenue. Hammond, lnd wrote that he galiud j four (4) pounds the first week, and Is so enthusiastic that he pronounuefl Pac- j kola superior tn any medicine he ever saw. I Airs, Al. L. Gruntz, of Spring ValleV. I N. Y., whose letter was dated June 26. says that she, too; suffered from chronic dyspepsia for years. At times even a drink of water distressed her. She has been greatly benefited bv the use of Paskola, and says that she Is now convinced by her general condition that sha derives nourishment from food which she formerly did nor. These statements but confirm the test which we had wtnessed. The Pre-Dlgested Food comnanv. of No. 30 Reade street,- New York, will gladly mall their free pamphlet on the Bubject of food and iQIgestlon to any. one whofhay send their name.
