Join s Introduced Assistant District Attorney John M. Harris, who. In a Welsh address full of the characteristic Cymric lire, con gratulated the meeting upon the sue- ss of their celebration of the patron saint. There was no question of the existence or the Inllucnce of St. David, who was born in Cal. When St. David received his education he taught his coiintryment the religion of the only f!od, and there was every evidence that he was a man of (iod. consecrated in his service. Thoiightfiillicss of St. PavlJ. St. David was instrumental in or ganlzing the cihurolii in Wales, nnd throughout his life was th" prophet and missionary of his country. Above all others there wus one lesson whi could be deducted from his life, and that was that he never forgot the in terests of his countrymen and country women. Mr. Harris said that he owed much himself to the principles und re ligion taught in the old Welsh home Heferrlng to those who were desirous of going from the old Welsh aphorisms, lie said they would be torn loose from a magnet of morality which would save them In the crLtleal periods of their lives.

They first settled In this state In lfi!i2, and In IS02 the Welsh colony became strong In the state. Among those who signed the declaration of Independence were seventeen men of Welsh birth or origin. Jefferson' ancestors were from the foot of the Efyrl-Snowdon In North Wales. In nil the struggles of our country, from first to Inst, the Amerl can cltlstcns of Welsh descent have been faithful and unfaltering, nnd the great volunteer army of '61 to 'C5 was filled with them.

The sneaker of the vcniiiir was Attorney W, (lavlord Thomas, who spoke no the life of "Hob- rt Morris." Among other things he said: 'Hubert Morris was born at J.iver- pool lu I7M4. lie ciime to this coun try with Ills lather, and entered the Hilling house of Chillies Willing, ut Philadelphia. Mr. Morris soon became listlngulshod for his business ability. All hough he bad great love for his mother country he was an ardent patriot. He was elected to cnngfVss nnd repeatedly sent there by the people. No person was truer than lie in the Interests of America. He was a con servative man, and at the time when the Declaration of Independence was signed, lie thought affairs hardly ripe for such action. When congress was at its wits' ends during the revolutionary war, owing to the luck of money, they placed the country's finances in the hands of Hubert Morris, relying upon his ability and business Integrity. He established the Hank of North Ameri ca at Philadelphia und was the llrst to Incorporate a national bank. He showed a wonderful conception of the lutles that were placed upon him."

COMMITTED TO IXSAXE NAM) Members of Poor Hoard nt Their Meet Ing Yesterday Listened to u Com muiilcallon from Attorney Scragg with KcRurd to Iter. Director (ilbbons presided at yester day's mut.isg of the Scranton Poor board til the absence of the regular I hah man, Mr. Langstaff. Secretary Lynott read a loiter received from the maiing' incut of the Home for Feeble Minded (. l-.l'dien at EKvyn, Delaware coiinl), lu thin state. This Institution II elves money annually from the stale and In return a certain number of fee ble miiii'eil children are accepted free u' (huiM. Tin' number is regulated by the I'liiober or legislative districts In each pool district. The Se-.-i'iiton poor directors had for some time been endeavoring to get three l eys of this district admitted to the Elwyu Home, but nil their efforts at poured t 1 In' disregarded by the man ageineiil of the home. Very curt let to.! c 1 1 1 1 : , 1 1 1 1 1 1 l; absolutely no Informa II ill wen received in reply to the let ters of Secretary Lynott. This became so tiresome that the board concluded to enter a complaint. Yesterday the secretary read a letter from Resident Physician .Martin Pari', of the Elwyn Home, apologizing for past discourte sies. Dr. Hair also outlined the pro position that If the Scranton board would take charge of three hopeless cases now being treated ut Ihe Elwyn Home, three children from this district would be received In exchange. Mr. Shot ten moved that the three boys, John Atkinson, David Thomas, and Albert Heine, be sent to the Elwyn Homo and the superintendent of the Hillside Home be authorized to take the boys to Elwyn and return with the three best boys he can select from the number of hopeless cases at Elwyn. This home, It Is said, does much good for that class of children that are about half witted, but many children are sent there who are absolutely Idiotic. The Scranton poor district will support throe of that kind In exchange for the three above named boys. After Aid from the Instate. Mr. Lynott reported also for the spe cial committee on legislation. When the sub-committee on approprlatinos was here a week ugo from the state leg islature at llarrisbuig, the special committee met the sub-committee at the Terrace hotel. The outcome of it was that the special committee of the board decided to draught two bills and send them to the Lackawanna delega tion. One of the bills proposed to place the Hillside Home on the same plane is state hospitals, so that it might come under the miilion-uoiiar appro priation made hl-ennlally by the state. The other bill recommended 11 specilie appropriation from the state for he care of the indigent insane of this dis trict. Hoth bills were mailed to Rep resentative Fair. Attorney Scragg was present to give his opinion in the case of Sarah Jane alley, who Is now in the insane de partment of the Hillside Home. She is over (Jrt years of age, Is very wealthy, and was found wandering aimlessly on the streets of this city. The police picked her up, and Mayor Council sen! word to Director Tropp, who had two physicians examine her. They declared her insane und she was committed to th" home. Her husband lives in Hrad- ford county, but she does not stay with him. She has a son 111 years old. A small fortune has been spent in .trying to have her adjudged insane so that she may be properly taken care of and not allowed to roam nround nt will. Hut she is so strategic and lavishes her money In opposing all efforts to mae a legal lunatic of her that she has thus far In en able to frustrate all the plans of her family. At the suggestion of Attorney Scragg, Mrs. P.ailcy's son will be required to Indemnify the board for her keeping If she is allowed to re main ut the Hillside Home, because she Is not a charge on the Scranton poor district, as her estate Is with her hus band in Hradl'onl county. Invitation to the Public. Mr. Cilbbons advised that a general invitation lie sent to the taxpayers of the district to visit the buildings at the home and see for themselves what the directors are doing with the pub lie money. About $(lii,tmo worth of Im provcnienls have recently bei n made there.
