un Increase of $15,8SO-Ordlnanco
Will lie Introduced Thursday.
On Thursday evening In select
council will be presented the ordinance
creating a paid lire department ' In
Scranton.
Tlie ordinance If passed will create a
fire commission of nine members.
Accompanying this article are pre
sented the cost und details which were
decided upon at a gathering of city
officials last night.
Those present were Mayor Connell,
City Controller WIdmayer, Chief of the
Flre Department Ferber, Select Coun
cllmen Durr and Finn, and Common
Councilman Hobathan.
The amount decided upon ns the
needed appropriation for a paid de
partment the llrst year is $r.6,S.10. The
expense for the volunteer department
for the current year Including special
appropriations will lie $41,000 when the
fiscal year closes, which shows an In
crease of only $15,850 to maintain a paid
system.
Chief and Assistants.
A chief engineer, 4 usslstunt chiefs,
G engineers, 34 permanent men, OS call
men und 1 veterinary ofllcer will be the
force provided for.
It is proposed to have a fire commis
sion of nine members, the president of
Which shall be the mayor. Councils
are to choose the other eight members
in such munner that each branch shall
be represented by four members, equal
ly divided between Republicans and
Democrats.
It could not lie determined at Inst
night's conference whether the chair
men of councils shall appoint the4, com
mission or whether councils shall elect
the necessary number of members.
The opinion prevailed thut the com
missioners should be appointed under
a procedure Identical to the method of
appointing councllmanlc committees,
but the point was not clearly estab
lished, und the city solicitor will be
asked for his opinion..
' City Solicitor Will Decide.
The creating of the commission will
be dealt with In the ordinance ac
cording to the city solicitor's opinion.
While In some minor details the or
dinance may be changed, the facts
given substantially cover the measure
as It will be finally presented.
It Is believed by the promoters of the
paid service Idea that the creative or
dinance will fully satisfy a few coun
cilmen who might have opposed it on
the question of expense.
It is known that many of th? city's
most prominent business men will urge
tlhat the measure be supported.
They contend that the cost of insur
ance will be reduced, that better fire
prqtectlon will be offered, and that the
saving In fire losses will counter-balance
the Increased cost of malntaln
ance. LAST NKJHT'S SERMON.
lather Dunn, of Great lien J, l'rcuched on
the Consequences of Sin,
One of the largest congregations- the
cathedral has held was present last
night to hear the sermon delivered by
ltev. M. II. Dunn, of Great Hend
Father Dunn was formerly rector of the
cathedral und he had not been heard
here before In a number of years. His
text was from tho eighth chapter of
St. John, twenty-first verse, "You shall
seek me nnd you shall not find me, and
you shnll die in your sins." In part
Father Dun spoke as follows:
Of all the virtues shining forth in
the life of our Savior none is more ro-
murkable than his admirable patience
This he manifested toward the greatest
sinners whom He received with the
greatest benignity It was only after
Jerusalem, unmindful of her visitation
und rejecting alike Ills warnings and
His promises, that divine patience and
mercy would seem to have been ex
haunted nnd no longer uble to stay the
anger of God toward tills stlftnecked
people. He employed all the attractions
of His love to soften their hearts and
Induce them to believe in Him who
was to bo their Redeemer
Hut this once chosen people rejected
all the efforts of His mercy nnd love,
notwithstanding the predictions of his
prophets which marked with clearness
the precise time of His coming; not
withstanding the numerous miracles
which attested Ills divine mission. Ho
came to his own and his own received
Him not. So, too, with Christians of the
present day. Christ comes In person
ns he did to the Jews, seeking to gain
admission to their hearts; but blinded
in their passions and sins they render
themselves liable to that divine oracle,
"you shall seek Me and you shall not
find Me, and you shall die In your sins
Father Dunn exhorted his hearers not
to copy the sad example of the once
chosen people of God,-but to return to
Illm by true penance and thus avert
the awful fate of the unrepentlng sin
ner. Delays are dangerous nnd there
nresome sinners for whom God does not
wait. His mercy Is infinite, no doubt,
but It has Its fixed time. There ure
sinners whom, In His Just Just wrath
He permits to die as an example and a
warning to others. For others a time
Is fixed and beyond that no mercy Is
shown to them. "Oh, then," he said
"permit It not to be said, that Christ
died for us In vain, that all the benefits
of redemption ore null and void, but
return to Him by true and sincere re
pentance. You shall then seek Him and
shall find Him, but only when you are
converted to Him with your whole
hearts.
NOTED ABOUT TOWN.
Owing to the excessive price asked
for the various sites there Is some feat-
expressed that the representatives of
the Philadelphia carpet Industry, who
are anxious to move their plant here,
muy yet full to make arrangements to
locate In the city. Strenuous efforts
are being made to secure a site on the
West Side, nut as live acres are re
quired, the undertaking Is not easy to
accomplish, . ;
Chestnut and Price streets are lora.ll
ties which should receive the attention
of the board of hoalth. Its officers must
be unaware of the unsatisfactory sanl
tary conditions of eome properties In
that neighborhood, where cess-pools
are within two feet of open windows
of dwelling houses.
J. H. Latne has retired from the man
agement of the Frothlngham theater
and the proprietor, Artihur Frothlng
ham, and the treasurer of (the house, O.
E. Jones, will for the present at least
dlylde the work of managing the pretty
play house. Mr. Laine has made many
friends since he came here to beeom.-f
manager of the Frothlngham. He pos
'sesses a wide and varied experience In
matters theatrical.
Alterations are being made on the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
track at Tripp's crossing to allow the
Traction company's rails to be laid
across there. The grades are contrary
and will have to be adapted to the re
quirement of both tracks. The Trac
tion company has graded North M.iin
avtnue on the hilt leading to the cross
ing. Formerly driving was dangerous,
owing to the rock which protruded
through the surface of the roud, but
now the projecting rock in the ;-oadway
has . been removed und the road wid
ened and improved.

The ordinance providing for the snle
of the bridge bonds provide that uny
surplus remulnlng from the expense of
building either bridge shall be applied,
If necessary, to the cost of the other
structure, and that the final surplus
shall be placed in the sinking fund to
be used for paying interest on the
bonds. An approximate made In the
olilce of the city engineer yesterday In
dicates that $lll,t!G4.39 will remain from
the building of the Linden street bridge,
while the Spruce street or South Side
structure shows a shortage of $1 0.14.
The estimates are unolllclal but are
based upon the supposition that coun
cils will decide upon an asphalt floor

LULU PLAYS A NEW ROLE
Tried to Have a Girl Released from
House of Good Shepherd.
SHE INVOKED AID OF THE LAW
Person She Was Anxious to Send Buck
to Shameless Career Proved a Disappointment-Writ
Dlsinlssscd and
Divckccpcr Told to Pay Costs.
Lulu Shannon Is certainly a most
bold and daring woman. Thursday,
under the name of Mary Smith, she
retained Attorney C. W. Dawson and
told him she had a friend in the House
of the Good Shepherd, named Nora
Kelly, who was anxious to be released.
She directed Mr. Dawson to take the
necessary steps to secure the freedom
of Miss Kelly.
Mr. Dawson thereupon obtained a
writ of habeas corpus from Judge
Archbald, which was made returnable
yesterday at 2 o'clock in chambers.
.Miss Kelly was present in charge of
Mrs. W. II. Duggan and Chief of Police
Simpson, und Attorney John F. Scragg
was present to oppose the writ in a
legal way.
The "friend" also put In an appear
ance, nnd proved to be none other than
Lulu Shannon, one of the most notori
ous dive keepers in the city. She was
dressed very modestly In black, and a
veil partly concealed her somewhat
dissipation-marked features. She af-
ftcted a coy and Innocent air, nnd when
asked her name said it was Mary
Smith.
She Knew Her Name.
' That won't do Lue," Chief Simpson
said, we Know who and what you
are.
'Well my right name is Mary Smith,"
declared Lulu, with rlslntr inflection.
I guess I ought to know."
"Your honor," said Attorney Scragg,
this young lady does not want to leave
the home. This wicked woman is try
ing to get hold of her to lead her back
to a life of shame."
Judge Archbald directed that Miss
Kelly be .sworn and in response to the
questions of Attorney Dawson said that
she did not want to leave tho House of
the Good Shepherd. She would prefer
to remain there.
"WH1, that's nil we have to offer,"
said Mr. Dawson, who began to realize
the true inwardness of the case.
"The writ Is dismissed nt the cost of
Miss Smith," sternly remarked Judge
Archbald, as he looked severely at the
abashed Lulu.
"You bad, bad woman, you'll be made
to pay for this," declared Mrs. Duggan
shaking her finger at Lulu, as she led
her charge out of the room. To a Til
bum; reporter Mrs. Duggan said:
"That's an awful woman, that Lulu
Shannon, and 1 propose that she shall
be made to understand that there is
law In this country that can reach sttth
vultures as she. Why, she takes
children into her resort and starts them
on the downward path, and I know of
one case where a yetting woman was
drugged, taken to her resort, ruined um
then kept there. That young woman
was rescued und is now in the House of
the Good Shepherd."
In the Consecrated Class.
Miss Kelly ha i been in the house over
a year, and on account of her earnest
desire to lead a good life has been pro
muted to the consecrated class. She
did not ask Miss Shannon to endeavor
to secure her release and at first was
not even able to recognize her.
','1 have decent, honorable relatives to
secure my release any time I want to
leave the home, and It Is not necessary
for me to ask the aid of such a person
ns Lulu Shannon." Such was Miss
Kelly's comment on the proceedings,
