NEWS OF THE RAILROADS.
The new steam-hetttlnif system of the
Delaware, Lackawanna and eWstern
cimpany is giving great satisfaction.
Tim Kearney Is recovered after his
recent Illness, and was around yester
day receiving the congratulations of his
friends.
There Is a general concensus of opin
ion that passenger engine No. 1X1 of
the Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern company Is the finest locomotive
between New York and Buffalo.
Hrakeman William iiush met with
an accident on Wednesday night while
engaged In coupling cars. His foot
clipped, hut he recovered himself In
time to avoid nur serious conse
quences than a sprained ankle. He Is
doing wil at his residence t Dunmore.
Engineer John Longfelt, of No. 3
train, on the Delaware and Hudson,
has become a well-known and familiar
figure on the road. His connection
with the company has now extended
over several years. He "picked up his
learning" on the Delaware, Lackawan
na and Western road. John Is a care
ful engineer and knows every corner
and every tel graph pole on the track.
Many employes of the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western railroad will
regret to hear of 'the death of Brake
man Wlllard Maryew, which took place
on Tuesday at Jersey City on the New
Tork, Susquehanna, and Western rail
road. He was engaged In Coupling
cars when he slipped and was crushed
between the buffers. At one time Mr.
Maryew was a popular pmploye of
the Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern company In Scranton.
Knglneers should visit the association
room to inspect the photograph of one
of the London and North Western Hall
way company's engines. This Is prob
ably the foremost company In Kngland
In point of first-class locomotives.
Superintendent Webb, who has charge
of the engineering departmrni of the
company, hail made a world-wide repu
tation In connection with the iringnlll
cent compound engines of hi com
pany, one of which exceed Huch In
terest at the Chicago World's fair.
American engineers are prone to pass
Adverse criticism on English locomo
tives at first sight, probably by reason
of the different manner In whloh they
are designed. Englishmen visiting the
Btntes often express their amusement
nt the "top-heavy, clumsy-looking puff.
Ing-blllles," but upon closer examina tion
they' confess that American locomo
tives have some points of. superiority.
Notably if this the case with regard
to the protection afforded to engineers
by the well-built cabs In whloh they
are snugly ensconced. Their English
brethren have practically no protection
of this kind. The inevitable cow
' cuteher Is not to be seen on the. English
locomotives, for the good reason that
the railroads are so carefully fenced
In that cows and , other quadrupeds
find it next to impossible to trespas on
the tracks. English locomotives, after
all, have some redeeming features,.
APPEALS TO BUSINESS MEN
Work the Y. M. C. A. Is Doing of
Great Assistance to Them.
PRESERVES' THE1K- EMPLOYES
It Gives Them Young Men with Bright
1'accs and Unclouded Brains Who llavo
a High and Honest Purpose in
Life An Kvening Cluss.
One feature of the Young Men's Chris
tian usosclation work which la full of
Interest Is the business man's connec
tion with It and his view of the work
and availability of the association. It
may be possible that severul business
men of the city, owing to a want of
knowledge of the work accomplished,
may not realize the full value of the
benefits accruing from the establish
ment of the Institution.
One reason is suggested why the as
sociation commends Itself to business
men, and that Is, it is organized for
definite and distinct work. In the days
of Its infancy many outsiders had the
idta that It was organized to carry on
work which there was nobody else in
the neighborhood to do; that any work
the churches would not undertake, and
which there was no association organ
ized specially to attend to, a Toung
Men's Christian association ought to do.
Some were ulso possessed of the idea
that It was promoted to accomplish
general evangelistic work among the
masses. Others thought that Its mis
sion was to stir up the churches to do
the right kind of work. There were
also a large class of people, as are

most, If not all, business men know
something of the temptations which
beset young men in the towns and
cities the temptations to Intemper
ance, impurity, impiety and Infidelity,
and there are Influences probably not
so glaring or open, but more insidious
and dangerous, which need not be men

young man to get away from his sur
roundings where temptations beset him
on every side to a place where the very
atmosphere indicates that there Is
something higher and nobler in life
than the selfish, enjoyments of every
day life. This is Just what the asso

Discussed by Colonel K. II. Ripple at Penn
Avenue llaptlsv-oliuich.
Colonel Ezra H. Hippie delivered an
Interesting lecture on his "Personal
War a.nd Prison Experiences" to a
large audience at the Penn Avenue
Baptist church last evening. After re
citing several Incidents of deep Interest
he concluded hi.s lecture with the fol
lowing remarks, which are brimful of
a patriotic spirit:
"As we came to the pontoon bridge,
over which we were to pass, I could
s-e in the distance the Stars and
Stripes Hying from the steeple. I had
not noticed them before, although wo
had passed through a number of camps
In which they must have been, und this
firpti sight of the old Hag was too much
for me. I had had all I could hold of
Joy before this came, and this was
more than I could tand. On looking
around at my comrades, I found that
there was not one that could restrain
the tears of joy that came willingly
to his eyes at the sight of the old Hag.
Oh, how we had learned to love It in
the months that we had spent outside
of Its protection and how much it rep
resented to us now. Liberty, home,
friends, protection, civilization, Ood's
laws and Ood'a country everything
that was worth living for, everyinlng
that was worth dying for. We had
attested our devotion and loyalty to It
and now w were going home ito enjoy
all that the supremacy of that fl-ig
would guarantee to us."
Rev. Warren O. Partridge said that
on behalf of 'the Boys' brigade, for
Wihose benefit the lecture was given,
he desired to thank Colonel Ripple for
his magnificent address, whloh was
more thrilling and Interesting than
anything he had read 1n magazines or
books. The portrayal of the Indescrib
able Bufferings which had been' borne
In the war made him love lls country
all the more.

a Christian or not, ia dependent upon
the energy, the faithfulness, the honor
and honesty of those whom he employs.
He prefers the young man to whom he
looks for success, come to his countlng
liouje, his store or his shop with clear
eyes, ruddy cheeks und clear -brains,
and not the young man with the dull
eyes and muddled brain of the de
bauchee, or one who has been out all
night in a beer saloon or billiard par
lor, or other place of dissipation.
The business man are ready to admit
that the Young Men's Christian asso
ciation Is the only organization In any
of our communities which stretches out
its hands expressly to young men in his
employ. He cannot but recognize that
the churcheB are organized for a dif
ferent, a larger and a more general
purpose, while the association, by Its
mere existence, demonstrates its adapt
ability and availability for this pecu
liar and Important work.
Business men have but to consider
that In all our cities und towns the
young men In the offices, stores and
shops are living in boarding houses, In
unpleasant rooms oftentimes, amid un
congenial surroundings, and that when
their work is done they have no re
sort but the streets, and they can readily
appreciate how important it Is that
there should be places of resort free
from the temptations of the saloon and
the houses whose doors are always open
on the way to ruin and oftentimes pre
mature death.
The Young Men's Christian assocla
tion Is the only organization that main
tains such buildings, hence their Im
portance to business men of Scranton

A large number of sympathizers were

late Mrs. Daniel Serine, of 1;I17 Vine
street, which were held ut the Elm
Park church yesterday. Presiding
Elder Eckman delivered an Impressive
address In which he stated that a week
ago last Sabbath, although suffering
severely from Illness, Bhe wended her
way to the house of prayer. Although
weak In body her heart was strong to

She had been a loyal and faithful mem

had now gained her reward In going
from the church militant to the church
triumphant. She had done her work
well on earth, and the sweet memories
of her days would cheer the heart of
those left In sorrow behind. Her ex

them and they should be cheered by the
hope that in the 'hap, y home loving
