It is gratifying to report thnt The
Tribune's plea for help for the Young
Men's Christian association has met
with a response. Seventeen contribu
tions toward the Finishing and Fur
nishing fund were made yesterday to
the extent of $ri.:io. Considering that
this sum was given the first day on
which the appeal was made the result
Is far In advance of anticipations.
Several contributors sent letters for
publication, but all of them are too
lengthy to be reproduced In this col
umn. The only letter that can be used
Is one signed "D. H. W.." from a little
boy who earned 10 cents by shovelling

paper made its appeal for money to
buy Hlitl-toxln for use among the pour
of the metropolis. The duy the llei-ald
made Its appeal it received only one
contribution, so The Tribune considers
the $j,.'I0 It received yesterday an evi
dence that the interest of these seven
teen persons will be multiplied many
fold ns the fund progresses.
This is a copy of the little snow
shoveller's letter:

Finishing and Furnishing Fund.
No. :l l School Girls.
Word wus received at The Tribune
ofllce yesterday that the young girls
of No. school are devising a plan to
get some money. It Is not unlikely that
their example will be followed by the
pupils of other schools in the city.
Now that the fund has been so nicely
started It should be thought over by
every futher or mother who owes a
tun's good health and manly bearing
to the association. Can the futher
economize on one dollar's worth of
cigars and send the equivalent to The
Tribune for the Finishing und Furnish
ing fund? Can the mother curtail one
dollar's worth on that new dress and
send the dollar to Tho Tribune for the
benefit of an association which lias
done their boy so much good?
It is not generally known that boys
classed us "nu i-hatilc-s" compose about
ttl per cent, of the Young Men's Chris
tian association membership. Home of
these "mechanics" work In the mines,
some In the machine shops uml some In
factories. Kuoh pays $7 a year for
privileges which no flub or associa
tion In the world can offer for an equal
sum. This fact Is mude possible In
Scranton only through the generosity
of a few men and women who pay 60
per cent, of the association's an mud
expenses.
Just One Reason.
No money has been directly spent
toward new finishings und furnish
ings for the building since 1SS7, and in
that year the building was first occu
pied ami only Jj.OOO was spent. Kvery
penny received now will do pome good
Can you afford to spare a penny?
Maybe you wouldn't miss 10 cents. If
you can afford to contribute (1, ?10 or
$100 you ought to send It along.

Giv on Exhibition In tho Y. At. C. A
Gymnasium.
A clever and interesting exhibition
was given yesterday afternoon by the
business mens' gymnasium class at the
Young Men's Christian association. A
varied programme was concluded with
a game of basket ball between the
banker and lawyer members of the
class, In which the former won by a
score of 2 to 0.
The first number was a body build-
ing drill with dumb bells, after which
Professor V. II, Uuell, of the School of
the I.ackuwunnu, led the exhibition in
upparatus work. A "medicine bull"
drill wub given, after which Physical
Director Weston gave an exhibition on
the rings.
THOSE POLICE CAPS.
W ill Bo Replaced hy III lie Ones of Mors
'cnt Design.
The cloth cups worn by policemen
will, within a few days, be discarded Hi
favor of a more tasty headgear. The
proposed cap will be of navy blue ma
terial with a stiff forepiece and a broad
band which can he pulled down over
the ears In cold or stormy weather.
It was during the recent blizzard that
the force was first equipped with cloth
cups. The need of them was urgent,
which accounts for the cap selected,
but the caps proved so acceptable to
tho policemen that their permanent use
was yesterday decided upon.

When the advertising atmosphere is s
heavily charged with exaggeration, it
Is well to remember who the honest
advertisers are. Windy assertion about
CHEAT reductions advertising goods
at impossible prices, find no lodging
place in the minds of intelligent people.
Lull trade throughout the legitimate
business season may make necessary,
wild statements from tomt clothiers to
attract trade, but the schemers will
have to scheme harder and Gndnew
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 tip 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 lind ELSEWHERE
