Mrs. Huldwln Entertains an Overcrow Je J
House at tho l'rothlnglian Last Night
by Her .Mysterious Po "X
Once more an enthusiastic crowd
surged into the spacious Frotlilngham
theater to witness the remarkable and
mysterluUH feints of Mrs. Baldwin. Sev
eral hundreds were unable to secure
seating accommodation und were com
pelled to stnnd during the evening.
Mrs, Baldwin created a profound sen
sation when, without nny warning or
announcement, she commenced to de
scribe the suicide which was committed
at Factory vllle some months ugo. In
a very lucid manner she detailed with
painful minuteness now Benjamin
Kosencranz made love to Mrs. Kute
Cross, und how he deulutvd his ab
sorbing passion for her und .then fol
lowed by giving the refusal of Mrs.
Cross and how she explained that she
was already married. The manner in
which the fatal deed was committed
was ulso recounted. Mrs. Baldwin then
gave the uge of Kosencranz at 21 and
said that the husband of Mrs. Cross was
In Kansas. The question was asked by
Tom Murray and the replies caused a
thrill of sensation. Muny questions of
great interest were replied to.
With regard to a case which occurred
on Wednesday night Professor Baldwin
explained that Miss Mury Doll was not
the name mentioned as having stolen
the jewelry of Miss Roos' daugtiter, but
as appeared in Thursday's Tribune the
name of "Mary Oilier" was given. He
made the explanation as legal proceed
ings were being instluled by Miss Doll
against Mrs. ltoos for slander. To
night's will be the last performance.
but the Baldwin's have been booked
for a return engagement at the Froth
Ingham In March.

sparkling wit and amusing situations.
Miss Lillian Bayer, as the opera

bright and new. There is no plot to
sptak of in the play, but each artist

MRS. PETTIGREWS SALARY
Board of Associated Charities Wunts
l'oor Board to Fay It.
NO ACTION TAKEN YESTERDAY
Mr. Gibbons Is After tho Management of
tho Elwyn I'ccblo Minded Home with
a Sharp Stick Reports from Phy
slcians and Supt. Boomer.
At a meeting of the poor board held
yesterday afternoon Jacob Cohen and
T. J. Kelley, a committee of the Board
of Associated Charities, were present
and were heard.
What the gentlemen wanted was to
lay before the poor board the matter
about the payment of the salary of the
assistan t agent of the Associated Chari
ties. Mrs. Duggun has so much work
on her hands thuit she cannot accom
plish it without help, and in these days
of suffering among the poor, she Is
especially busy. Mrs. Duggan cun at
tend to the visits and inquiries about
all cases, but she cannot llnd time to
make a. record in order that the mem
bers will know who has been assisted
and so forth.
The Hoard of Associated Charities nt
a recent meeting' appointed the com
mittee to confer with a committee of
the poor board with a view to see if life
latter would agree to pay the sulary of
Mrs. Duggan's nsslstunt. Mr. Cohen
addressed the meeting and so did Mr,
Keller. They thought that the Asso
ciated Charities takes a good deal of
business from the poor board; it deuls
with cases that the poor board would
have to look after 1f there had been
no Board of Charities; therefore, they
felt that it was not asking too much
for the poor board to pay Mrs. Pettl-
grew's salary.
Opinions of Mombers.
Mr. Shotten is chairman of the com
mittee appointed by the poor board
and he advised the matter to be con
tinued until both committees meet
and look up the law to see if it may be
legal to pay 'fhe salary asked for. There
seemed to be a sentiment among the
members against the Idea of expend
Ing any money for this purpose. Mr.
AVUllams jumped to his feet and said
the city paid him a salary for his work
on the board and he was capable of
earning that salary and looking after
the poor In his district.
Mr. Gibbons did not take the same
view; he gave Mrs. Duggan credit for
her work. She was doing good work
and relieving the poor directors of a
good deal of undesirable labor in the
shape of visiting houses and neighbor
hoods of the poor" where disease Is ram
pant. If Mrs. Duggan's work is so
heavy that she needs a steady assist
ant Mr. Gibbons believed in paying the
assistant's salary, that Is if the board
can do it legally.
On motion of Mr. Shotten the commit
tee was continued and a conference of
botih committees will come together
at a time suitable to the members of
both. In order that their report may
be read at the next meeting of the poor
board.
Superintendent Beemer's report o,
the farm and almshouse showed that
the number remaining In the almshouse
on Jan. 31 was 168; males, 121; females,
47. Two died during the month, and 1
were discharged; 2K were admitted.
Report of Resident Physicians.
The report of Dr. Ben. F. Evans, resi
dent physician of the Hillside home.
was that there were at the beginning of
the year 141 patients In the asylum
8 were discharged during January, and
4 were admitted.
Secretary Lymatt said he had received
a bill from themanagementof the Home
for Feeble Minded Children at Elwyn,
The bill was for expenses for the board
and support ofchlldren sent from this
district. Among the names was that
of a girl named Alice Cook, whom the
Scranton board never had sent there.
Mr. Lynett In writing back took ooca
slon to ask the management of the
Ehvyn home for rates for the support
of any children that may hereafter be
sent here, whom the poor board will
have to pay for.
Made No Answer.
The reply received simply stated that
a mistake had been made in charging
the Item for the support of Alicp Cook
to the Scranton poor district, but the
information otherwise asked for by
Secretary Lynett was totally ignored.
Mr. Gibbons moved to appoint a com
mlttee of three to see the members of
the legislature from this county and
impress upon them the necessity of
calling the management of the Elwyn
home to account for Its overbearing
conduct. QJhalrman Langstaff ap
pointed on this committee Messrs. Gib
bons, Shotten and Murphy.
Retiring Treasurer Thomas H. Jones
handed over to his successor, D. M.
Jones, the sum of 112,903.87.

Twelve of Them Slept In the Court
House Lost Night.
Twelve Jurors slept in the court house
last night, because they could not reach
a vordlct in the case they retired to
deliberate upon. One Jury has been
locked up alnce 3.30 Thursday after
noon; the one that heard the suit for
damages brought by George Bailey
against the borough of Dickson City.
When court opened yesterday morning
this Jury asked to be brought In for
general instructions. Afterward Judge
Archbald Instructed the Jury and they
retired and later In the day they came
back and asked to be discharged.
Court refused and again the Jurors
went back to their room. One of their
number, John Duggan, of Dunmore,
took sick and a doctor had to be sent
for. With the permission of itihe court
and the consent of the attorneys on
the both sides Duggan was withdrawn
and the other eleven were sent back to
reach a verdict. It was on Impossible
tank for tlheni to do so until 1 o'clock
this morning.
The other Jury, Jn the trespass suit
of Mrs. Margaret Hughes-Davis
against the city of Scranton could not
agree either, 'but they retired at 10.30
Inst tilght. Th case was Riven to
them at 11 o'clock yesterday morning,

ITS EARLY STRICGLES.
History of tho Organization of the Y. M.
C. A. of Scrunton-AJfred Hand was the
First President.
The first Young Men's Christian asso
ciation in Scranton was am outgrowth
or the religious awukenlng which
spread over the whole country in 18.77.
it was organized and conducted active
ly by some of t he leading men in Scrun
ton at that time, among them Joseph 11.
Scramton, John Brisbln, Joseph C.
Plutit. It continued successfully down
EX-JUDGE ALFRED HAND,
First President of Y. M. C. A.
to about 1SC1, when the religious asso
ciations connected with the prosecution
of the war largely took the place of
this kind of association work. At a
meeting called ito consider the question
it was with some opposition voted to
disband the association.
The meetings had then been held In a
pleasant and well-appointed room In
a building Jn, the rear of the store occu
pied 'by Joseph Chase, on the corner
of Lackawanna and Wyoming avenues.
Alfred Hand -was at that t'lme an
active member of the association and,
with a few, endeavored to keep tlie
association up. It was, however, found
to be w.lae to divert the energies of Mil
religious organizations intoi care for the
health and spiritual Interests Involved
In the life and death struggle for the
nepuouc. Patriotism ana piety were
then concurrent and active virtues.
When Ithe association was revived it
was with the help of a. kirge number
connected with the former organiza
tion. In IStiS the present organization
was perfected.
The first meetings were held In the
Penn Avenue Bapttst church. A char
ter 'Was procured and the aim was
tu make a complete association with a
building and all the appointments
which the best regulated organizations
have.
At the ouset a warm and courteous
discussion was had on the question
whether it Should be placed on a dU
inctlvely evangelical tiasls. The vote
was overwhelmingly In favor of such
a basis, even though it threw some of
the most esteemed and cordial workers
into the category of associate members
The first president elected was Alfred
Hand, who has ever since been a prac
tical supporter, contributing each year
for the support of the association. Ha
19 iiowi one of the trustees of the
building. During 'his administration
there was a generous and united effort
to place the association on permanent
foundations, and since that lime it has
never failled Jn active, generous and
strong supporters.

ANTI-TOXIN IS WANTED
Board of Health Considered Matter
at the Meeting Yesterday.
AGAINST ITBLIC FUNERALS
Sanitary Officer Burke Directed to En
force Regulation with Regard to Pri
vate Funerals M'hen Persons Dio
of Contagious Diseases.
Consideration of anti-toxin consumed
e considerable portion of the time of
the 'board of health at its monthly
meeting yesterday afternoon.
J3r. Fulton was Introduced as a
representative of the County Medical
society, which recommended at Its lust
meeting that the board of health
should procure a supply of anti-toxin
in order that fxperiments might be
made In iScranton to diagnose cases of
diphtheria. Dr. Fulton explained the
matter briefly.
It was pointed out that It would not
be necessary to employ a bacteriolo
gist, as any physician who had the ex
perience of a. laboratory course would
bu able to make Ithe diagnosis. Ulti
mately ilt was agreed that the sugges
tion of the society was a practical one
and that a committee consisting of Dr.
Bent ley. Dr. Paine and Dr. Allen be
appointed to confer with representa
tives of the society.
Cases Deported During Month.
Secretary Brlggs reported that the
following cases had been reported dur
ing the past month: Diphtheria, 15;
scarlet fever, 12; typhoid, 3; measles, 1;
total, 31.
The following deaths had occurred
fron contagious diseases: Diphtheria,
6; scarlet fever, 4; eyphold, 2; total
deaths for the month, 140; births, 99,
and .marrJajjes, 28.
Dr. Allen, the health officer, present
ed a report, In which he referred to the
precautions Which should be taken in
cases of funerals of persons who had
died from contagious diseases and it
was decided that Captain Burke, the
sanitary officer, should notify the per
sons interested that public funerals are
prohibited on such occasions, and that
he should attend when such funerals
are held to observe that the law is
not infringed. In case of more than
one funeral occurring at the same time
It was decided that Mayor Connell
should be asked to assign special offi
cers. Meeting of State Hoard.
Dr. Allen reported that at the recent
meeting of the State Associated Health
Authorities of Pennsylvania, a great
part of the time was taken up in ar
ranging for legislation in regard to
milk and water, and the establish
ing of township hoards of health. It
was altogether probable that the
ShakeKeare bill 'In regard to milk
would be passed and all health boards
would be thankf.ul in case it was.
Inspector Thomas presented his re
port, ju which, referring to the analysis
of milk, he said: "I found some cases
milk that had been watered and in
some cases skimmed. Perhaps too
much brewing grain is being fed to the
cows and Js the cause of some of the
milk failing to come up to standard.
Adulteration of milk has, however,
been principally carried on outside the
city limits."
A CABMAX INJURED.

IT IN THF
II 111 I lib I UVII,
When the advertising atmosphere is so
heavily charged with exaggeration, it
is well to remember who the honest
advertisers are. Windy assertions about
GREAT reductionS'-advertising goods
at impossible prices, find no lodging
place in the minds of intelligent people.
Dull trade throughout the legitimate
business season may make necessary,
wild statements from some clothiersjto
attract trade, but the schemers will
have to scheme harder and find new
disguises for their lame excuses before
they can stop the people from coming
to this store for honest values. The
triumph of this store is the triumph of
intelligence, and you have made it so.
Trade has been up to the mark here,
yet there's a touch of attractiveness in
the styles and assortments. We've add
ed another and more taking attraction
-REDUCED PRICES, natural order of
things here at this season; LOWER,
PRICES than you find ELSEWHERE,
Clothiers, Hdters,8r Furnishers.
