the work of the guild generally.
Various Interesting Incidents have

Work of I ntcrpilslng Children.
Three months ago Mrs. Coston gave
the children a penny each, and asked
them to invest It In the Interest of the
Guild's Christmas tree and to particularize-
their speculations. One little boy
bought twelve pieces of candy with his
penny, resold It for 3 cents, with which
he purchased pop-corn which retailed
brought In 5 cents; he then purchased
material and made four dusters, which,
at 10 cents each, brought In 40 cents,
and so on until he realized $1.50, which
he proudly deposited In the treasury
last evening. A little girl paid In S1.30
and u little boy $2, the total profit of the
sixteen pennies being over $16, all of
which were Industriously made In three
months.
The penny clulj will again start oper
ations at the beginning of the New

prominent feature on the tree.

with a rush, and Mr. Battle arose an-ain
and moved to pass the ordinance on
Becouu reading.
Cantain Molr took the flnnr nfter thf
motion was stated and made a very
clever speech In opposition to the pas
sage of the ordinance. He said it is not
sen DUHiaimng, is too rnr removed rrom
the center of the city, offers no Induce
ment 'to the fltv. lis nltnirulhor mt
muoh better than 2,600 acres of waste
land. He is in favor of a greater
Scranton, but this city has not reached
'tit mat stage of .progress where she
an affoi'il tu l.i 'Si rwli nn f anil a Viol tut
such distant foundlings. Before the
city annexes such, a vast district there
ought to lie some assurance that It
in not be a tax burden on her hands.
What Mlnooka Claims!
Mr. Battle renlled
and said that Mlnooka Is at present
soir sustaining and will not bo a de
pendent creaiture In case. It Is annexed.
It Is built up largely and populated
wun .',;uo people. Its citizens are In
dustrious and progressive and are will
ing to share the burden of the tax. It
possesses good schools, and all that It
requires to give It the same general ap
pearance of prosperity and progresslve
ness is graded streets.
Caiptaln Molr on second reading
moved to postpone it for four weeks.
This was followed bv a motion bv fr
Grler to table the motion. Captain Molr
anu ine Republican members voted to
table and then raised the noint that the
ordinance was also tabled. Chairman
Nealls ruled otherwise. The ordinance
then came up and passed on second
reading.
The ordinance providing for the grad
ing of Franklin avenue with vitrified
brick was introduced by Mr. Godfrey
and It pansed first and second readings.
Wuges on City Contracts.
Mr. Battle, of the judiciary commit
tee, reported fuvorably on ordinance es
tablishing the wages to be paid by con
tractors receiving contracts from 'the
city.
An ordinance passed third reading
prohibiting the employment of any
alien In and around the public works of
the city of Scranton and also to prohibit
contractors doing business for the city
to employ aliens.

ST. LIKES XMAS TREE.
Over 250 Children Receive Gifts and
Toothsome Thins.
St. Luke's church presented a beau
tiful appearance Inst evening upon the
occasion of the Christmas festivities
of the Sunday school of the church nnd
South Side mission. In addition to the
Christmas decorations which had been
.allowed to remain, a magnificent tree,
specially ordered from New York, was
placed In the aisle near the chancel
steps. The tree was over twenty-five
feet In height, reaching the top of the
chancel arch, and was loaded with
Christmas gifts and ornaments.
Rev. Rogers Israel and Rev. A. L.
Urban conducted the services, which
were opened by a processional hymn,
"Onward Christian Soldiers," after
which the special service forthe children
was sung In an interesting manner. The

All Bright Are Beaming," "See Amid
the Winter's Snow," were sung by the
children in a hearty manner, after
which the gifts were distributed.
A sum of $150 had been Taised by
voluntary efforts,' with which a large
stock of gifts were purchused. In addi
tion to a gift each child received a box
of mixed confectionery and oranges.
Over 250 children were present. Includ
ing 110 from the South Side mission.

ated the tree.

sion returned home jn a special car.

Turnouts of High and Low Degree
Thronged the Streets Yesterday-Street
Car Traffic Resumed.
A large number yesterday took ad
vantage of the excellent sleighing, and
In the afternoon partlculraly the busi
ness streets and favorite drives
throughout the city were thronged with
turnouts of high and low degree. Com
fortable family sleighs and flashy
rigs of practical horsemen predomi
nated, but there were many who sled
ded simply for the fun of it and were
content to drive almost anything, from
an easy-going dray horse to an Illmated
pair attached maybe to an old-fashioned
jumper or rickety cutter any
how, there was sleighing and lots of It.
Along Washington avenue tnd
through Green Ridge to the open coun
try beyond, the jingle of bells was most
incessant; but, rather than take
chances of encountering drifts in the
outskirts, 'there were many who chose
the residence streets of the central
city or the hum and life in the busi
ness district. Along Lackawanna ave
nue the merry music of the bells con
tinued all day and ait times the proces
sion of sleighs was so dense that pedes
trians had difficulty in crossing the
streets.
Elmhurst boulevard proved a popular
drive for horsemen with nags which
could do as good or better than a 3-min-
ute clip. There were no drifts of any
consequence and the roadway was fully
as favorable for sleighing as the streets
of the city. Tho enjoyment of those
who drove over the boulevard was
made known after their return, and
will be tho means of attracting many to
the Elmhurst drive. A loop connecting
with the .boulevard proper and contain
ing a half-mile track was used by many
who drove fast animals, and If the sun
shines today sufficiently to allow the
snow to pack, some spirited brushes
will be seen upon the speedway.
Street car traffic on all the lines, ex
cepting the Green Ridge and Dunmore
Suburban routes, was resumed to and
from the city limits before nightfall.
The number of cars running was re
duced owing- to the fact that the lines
were opened in most cases only to the
city limits and because of a breackage
at one of the power houses. It is anti
clpated that during today the entire
system will be put in running order.
Carroll Insulted Ladies.
John Carroll, of Merldan street, em
