tics for the Year.
The Board of Associated Charities
held a meeting last night, which was
very Interesting. The treasurer's re
port shows a balance In the treasury at
present of $329.46. Thomas J. Moore's
resignation was read, but "further con
sideration of It was postponed for the
present, expecting that Mr. Moore may"
be persuaded to recoisider his deter
mination. The memoers felt rthat his
usefulness as a member of the board
could not be spared.
Dr. J. W. Walk, of Philadelphia, who
lectured in the Young Men's Christian
Association hall, under the auspices of
the Board of Charities, sent the fol
lowing letter to Rev. Rogers Israel, the
secretary, which was called forth by
the misrepresentation his lecture re
ceived In the columns of the Scranton
Times:
I wish to compliment the Scranton
Tribune for the very excellent report of
my address, and I must say that the" re
port of the Times was very misleading.
The Times said that I advocated the
abolition of outdoor relief, compelling all
bjects of charity to live in almshouses.
That charity In such a case wore a wintry
aspect. If such was my opinion, It would
Indeed present a wintry aspect, but I have
been misunderstood. I am not In favor of
forcing the worthy poor Into almshouses.
Indeed, for years, It has been my effort
to prevent the necessity of their going
there.
I believe In assisting them at their own
homes by such kindly methods as may
preserve their self-respect, but I think
such assistance can be better given by
benevolent societies than by county or
township officials who very often owe
their appointment to the favor of pollt
leal leaders, and seldom feel any deep Hi
terest In the unfortunates under their
are. In our own state there- have been
many scandals connected with the expen
diture of city and county poor fundH; al
most none in the administration of ben
evolent societies.
Foundation of His Opinion. .
My opinion Is not the result of prejudice
but of long and close observation; for I
am myself a city orllclal. The reporter'
misunderstanding of my position was
probably due to my using the phrase, "out
door relief In Its restricted, legal mean-
ng of relief given from money raised by
taxation.
I did advocate the discontinuance of this
kind of relief, but only with a view of
substituting for It relief given by benevo
lent associations, whose work Is rnorc
sympathetic and more economical than
that of political officials, no matter to
what party they belong. '
I say emphatically that I am In favor of
saving the deserving poor from the ne
cesslty of going Injo almshouses as long
as possible.
When the letter was read Mr. Cohen
explained that he had sent Dr. Walk's
views of the report given his lecture by
the Times to the editor of that sheet
and the matter was satisfactorily cor
rected in an editorial utterance yester
day morning.
Miss Lizzie Y. Beame, of 521 Delaware
street, applied for the position of as
slstant to Mrs. Duggan and her com
munlcatlon was received and placed on
file. Mrs. Duggan made the following
report: Number of visits nuule, 30
worthy, 20; unworthy, 10; revisited, 6
transportation furnished to 4 persons,
lodging to 3; children sent to Foundling
home, 2; persons sent to Lackawanna
hospital, 2; found permanent positions
for 3, found work for 4; one child taken
In charge from vicious parents; dona
Hons received from sisters of St
Cecilia's academy.
Colonel Ripple, chairman of the board,
announced the following committees for
the ensuing year:

NEW TRIAL 1 OR IJEZKK.
Ills Attorneys Will Today Ask Court to
Allow Another Hearing.
Attorneys Colborn and Watson, who
so ably defended Franz Bezek last
week, say they will today apply for a
new trial for the convicted man. The
reason for the new trial will set forth
that the court erred In Its rulings dur
ing the trial, In Its oharge to the Jury,
and In not having all the evidence with
regard to Bezek's mental condition at
the time of the killing read to the
Jury when It went into court for in
structions on Saturday.
Warden Grimes says that Bezek ap
parently does not realize that he has
been convicted of a crime that may
mean death to him. His manner has
not changed.

SLEEP
Are out of the question when tor
tured and disfigured with Eczema.
It is the cause of more intense
suffering than all other skin diseases
combined.
Tender babies are among its most
numerous victims.
They are often born with it.
Most remedies and the best physi
cians generally fail even to relieve.
If CUTICURA did no more than
cure Eczema, it would be entitled to
the gratitude of mankind.
It not only cures but
A single application is often suffi
cient to afford instant relief, permit
rest and sleep, and point to a speedy,
permanent cure.
CUTICURA WORKS WONDERS be-
cause it is the most wonderful skin
cure of modern times.
