THIRD ORGAN RECITAL.
Given by Professor Conant In St. Luke's
Church Saturday.
. The third Lenten organ recital at St.
Luke's church was a fitting: prelude to
the simple yet beautiful service of tho
English church which Immediately fol
lowed. But though intended and ar
ranged as an essential part of these
Lenten services, the recital of Satur
day calls for more than passing refer
ence. It was devoted wholly to selec
tions from the works of J. S. Haeh, and
the programme was, with one excep
tion, adhered to In Its entirety.
In the opening number Mr. Conant's
exquisite interpretation of the 'anta
sle, forming the Introduction to the
big O minor Fugue, was as pronounced
as was later his broad and dignified
reading of the Fugue known as the
"little O minor Fugue." Indeed, In
these two numbers especially, the
listener was unmistakably Impressed
wltn the fact that Mr. Conant Is thor
oughly Imbued with the best tradi
tions of the true school of organ music.
Scholarly work and faultless technique
were everywhere apparent.
Of versatility Mr. Conant gave
abundant evidence In the delicate,
muslclanly manner In which he treated
both the Pastorale and the Aria In
eluded In the programme, the latter an
arrangement from a string suite In I).
Mrs. 3. du B, Dlmmlek was the
vocalist, and gave a very sympathetic
rendering of the quaint old air, "Forget
Me Not," and for "My Heart Ever
Faithful" substituted Dudley Buck's
"My Redeemer and My Lord."

of the comic opera events of the season.

PLANS FOR THE SEASON
Arrangements for Scrunton to Take
the 1'icld About Completed.
THE RULES WILL BE EXACTING
Manager llarnic to Insist That His Play.
crs Keep Kllit to tho Line Improve
mcnts to lie Made on the Grand
Stand lie fore Season Opens.
"Within just twenty-two days the 1895
Scranton Itase Ball team will -have
gathered together In this city and on
April 8 will leave to play the first prac
tice game at Harrlsbrug. One week
Inter, on April 15, the Scrantim cranks
will have an opportnlty to Judge the
team in the gume to be played here
with Pottsvllle. All the dates, except
ing Sundays, between April 10 and 27,
are already scheduled for practice
games either here or abroad. The
regular Kustern league season opens
April I'll with Syracuse In this city.
Manager Hilly Hal rile arrived here
Saturday after having succeeded in
signing eleven players of quality. All
the positions are tilled. Patchen, last
season's catcher, is at his home in Vv'lll-
lumspurt, and Quarles, pitcher, Is at
bis home In Petersburg, Va. A con
tract la waiting for t-he signature of
each, and It Is probable that they will
soon tire of pluyiug coy.
A meeting of the directors was held
Saturday night in the otllce of A. L.
Francois and many matters of Interest
were gone over between them and
Manager Uarnle. From Interviews
with President Hetts, Manager Uarnle
and several of the directors It Is evi
dent that a line of broad, business
policy has been mapped out for the
season which will not hamper the man
ager, but will work to such an end that
the public: will be attracted and
pleased.
The Scranton Players.
To begin with the list of players
looks promising, not only on paper, but
from their work last year. Only four
played on the old Scranton team.
Their names follow:

When the season opens the grand
stand will have been altered to such a
degree that It will have lost almost all
semblance to its former crude, uncom
fortable and unhandy self. The
ladder-like stairs at either end are to
be taken down and several broader
flights built up from the rear, where
will be located the only entrances. The
tunnel stairway in the center of the
stand will be abolished, and a como
dlous exit stairway built on the end of
the stand next the street. The row of
boxes, excepting a reporters' box, is to
be removed, and the space converted
into a passage way. According to
present plans there will be no necessity
for scrambling up on the rear seats In
order to escape the sun. A projection
or hood is to be built out from the roof
and will keep out the hot rays which
last year were wont to scorch specta
tors' faces all colors from a delicate
pink to nut brown.
A proposed Improvement which will
be not the least appreciated Is a sec
tion to be set aside for women and their
escorts. A partition will separate this
section from the main part of the stand.
No Carriages on tho FiclJ.
Carriages are not to be allowed with
in the grounds, but the associa
tion has secured a space in the Held
directly across the street where hitch
ing places will be provided and a man
permanently employed to watch the
horses and whatever articles may be
left In the carriages.
It had been intended not to sell any
season tickets, but the demand has been
so great that at Saturday's meeting It
was decided to sell wlthUi a limited
number of weeks tickets at $18 each for
the fifty-six home games.
It Is probable that some of the play
ers will be surprised by the training
and practice methods under which
they will be managed. ' The disciplin
ary features of the team will not be
more ardous or more lax than the
discipline maintained by and expected
from the managers of the major
leagues. Never in the history of
Scranton base ball has a player been
obliged under penalty to report for
practice play at a certain hour every
week day morning; nor have they been
obliged to seek their beds at or before
a certain hour of the night. They will
be expected to do both this year..
Billy Barnle has never been accused
of being too exacting or mandatory
with his men, but he has managed base
ball teams many years and has brought
In pennant winners at the end of sev
eral seasons. He owes his repute no
less to his knowledge of the game than
to his knowledge of how to manage
men, keep them active and strong and
merit their respect and obedience. It
Is obvious that during 1895 there will
be no undue slackness and no undue
severity Imposed on the Scranton play
ers, but they will be expected to "play
ball" in the figurative as well as the
literal sense of the term.
Two Kinds of I'nlfnrms.
The home uniform will be of gray,
with royal blue cap .and stockings;
away from home the team will be clad
In navy blue uniforms, liuiudlngs cups
and stockings of that color.
The men will not be put at even
knock about or catch practice at home
until after the first week's play abroad
The reasons are plain. Adverse criti
cism might produce an Incurable case
of rattles, or a player might seriously
cripple himself by overdoing. April 9
the players will leave here to play In
Harrlsburg April 10 and 11; Pottsvllle,
April 12 and 13; Newark, April 14. They
will return here to play Pottsvllle,
April 15 and 16; Murray Hills, April 18
and 19; Blnghamton, April 20; Carbon
daledale, April 22; Blnghamton, April
23; Hazleton, April 25 and 26; Cuban
Olants, April 27. April 24 they play In
Carbondale.
Of the holidays, the Scrantons will
play here on the afternoon of May 30
and the momlug of July 4 with Wilkes
Barre, going to that city for the morn
ing and afternoon games respectively,
Fourteen . Saturday games will be
played here, and the opening game on
the Toronto grounds will be played
with Scranton. The local team also
goes to Toronto fot Labor Day.
Concerning the . recent New York
meeting which arranged the schedule
and made several important revisions
of the byelaws and rules, Manager
Barnle yesterday spoke In tho highest
terms of the unity -and common feel
lng. He makes no boasts or promises
of what the Scranton team' will do, but
in speaking of the season's prospects
generally and of the accommodation!
to be made for the patrons of the game
in this city he Is urdent and sanguine.
'
IN LOCAL THEATERS.
"City Government," M. J. Gllbrlde's
new sensational political drama, which
will be presented at the Academy of
Music this afternoon and evening, is
admitted to be a magnificent piece of
scenic work. The play Is a satirical
ciiniedy on the politics of the day, and
can be justly culled "a play for 4he
people." There Is not a tame Inci
dent from the rise to the full of the
curtain, one event following the other
In rapid succession. The boodle poli
ticians, the ward heeler, the corpora
tion councllmen aud'the policemen are
handled In un Interesting manner. By
request "Without u Name," the fam
ous mining play by the same author,
will be reproduced tomorrow evening.
This piece received its tlrst production
two years ago at the Academy and
proved a great success. A large engine,
the most realistic on tho singe today,
has been built and will cross the stnge
In full view of the audience. Both plays
will be given by a Belect company of
New York players, including Krnest
Allen. William Wheeler, Charles J.
Harris, W. K. Davis, Web Seism, J. W.
Carroll, R. VV. Rankin. P. Barrett, T.
V. Hush. William Nledler, Miss Flor
ence Sherwood, Miss Muggle Clullagher
and Mies Bessie Grayson.

II Ml '
in Old Kentucky," which comes to
the Academy of Music on Thursday
evening, stands at the head of last aea
son's successes, it Is a very elaborate
scehic production and It possesses a
story or ausoroiug interest exceeuingiy
well told. An odd feature Is a pickan
inny band composed of about twenty
little darkles. These diminutive ne
groes were secured In tho south nnd
trained by the management especially
for "In Old Kentucky." A genuine
horse race Is also an attractive and
spirited Incident of the performance.

Monday, Tuesday nnd Wednesday
Manager Davis presents the New York
Uniques, an organization of high-class
specialty performers, from which he

enterprise on an unique plan each Is
Interested in the success of all.

In connection with his business here
and intends booking some A 1 attrac
tions. :i ii i!
The production of "Cleopatra" by
Miss Lillian Lewis has been talked and
written about so much that Its presen
tation here on Monday, March 23, at
the Academy of Music is looked for
ward to with much Interest, Colonel
Marston, who is here making final ar
rangements, was seen by a Tribune re
porter and said: "A classic drama pro
duced .with spectacular splendor. is of
course a novelty, and to that is doubt
less due, In a great degree, the sensa
tion which Miss Lewis' 'Cleopatra' has
created."
THE CULTURE OF CELERY. '
Once a Disourdtfd Vegetable, It Is Now
Universally Used.
Celery, like the now popular and uni
versally used tomato, was not long ago
considered to bo poisonous, or at least
unfit for human food. To-dny the de
mand for the crisp esculent Is met by
gardeners, north, south, east, and west,
ten months of tho year. Formerly the
celery season was confined to the winter
months, and prices ranged so high that
the tables of the rich were alone dec
orated with the graceful stalks. Celery
In a wild state is rank, If not noxious,
and certainly unpalatable. It Is a plant
that only attains Its appetizing perfec
tion after much labor und watchful
care. For this reason the best celery
comes from 'the section of the country
settled by Oermn'n gardeners.
The great celery beds of the nation
ire In Michigan, especially1 In the vicin
ity of Kalamazoo, where no less than
100,000 acres are devoted exclusively to
Its culture. A deep, rich, well-drained
soil IS required. Tho seed Is planted
thickly. When 'the plants reach a
height of two or three Inches they are
taken up and transplanted Into long
ditches nnd allowed to grow from 8 to
12 Inches tall. They are again trans
planted for bleaching. The stalk Is
kept covered with a dark, rich soil henp
ed In low, fiat bottom lands, und the
dikes In which the celery Is bleached
are laid out with precision, regular
ditches Intervening.
Celery bleaches best when the surface
of the dykes or mounds Is froisen. Care
must be taken, however, that the frost
does not reach tho stalks "themselves,
else the bleaching process Is at one ar
rested, -and a tough stringy plant re
sults. It Is In the watchful care of the
thermometrlo condition that the pa
tience of 'the gardener Is exercised. If
the weather Is open or warm the (thick
ness of the dykes must be decreased,
elso the plants In a too ardent warmth
grow too fust, nnd thus become hollow
and tough.
Owing to competition in Iowa and
Minnesota on a large scale, and the
Increasing cultivation of the relish by
truck gardeners, the price has steadily
declined every yenr, nnd 10 centi buys
to-day whn't ten years ago wna consid
ered cheap at a half-dollar.

account ot Its exceeding promptness In
relieving pain in the bladder, kidneys,

sages, in male or female. It relieves re
tention ot water and pain In passing It

Saturday morning in court was
handed down the liquor licenses that
had been granted, and also a list of the
applications that iluid been refused.
The total number granted Is 532; and
several were under advisement because
the pupers were not properly drawn up,
The number refused Is 124.
Judge Archbald remarked that he
was not In favor of renewing the license
of John Horn In the Thirteenth ward.
"It was pluinly proven," Judge Arch
bald suld,"that Horn sold liquor to min
or and the license was granted io him
without my consent." All new appli
cations in the Thirteenth ward were
tefoed Judge Archbald, In speaking
about the refusul of Deckelnlck's li
cense, gave out the Information thut
the court was unanmtous with regard
to prohibiting him from selling liquof.
The evidence was strongly against
Deckelnick that liquor was sold on
election day, and the court held it was
no excuse that Mrs. Deckel nick was the
one who made the Sale,
John M. Casey, proprietor of the St.
Nlcholus hotel, on lower Lackawanna
avenue, was refused because he did not
provide sulllclent hotel accommoda
tions last year. Mr. Cusey admitted
before the court that the space that
should have been set apart for lodging
and dining quarters, was occupied as a
dance hall, but he suld the fault for this
was that of the man who owned the
building. This yeui, howere, he prom
ised to remedy the matter.
William J. Robb, of Lackawanna ave
hue, whom many suspected from the
speech of Judge Ounster, would be re
fused, was grunted a license, but he
will be required to Improve the tone of
his establishment.
Dunccrs Will llac to Go.
John Majernylk, ' who has conducted
a hotel near the Dodgetown bridge, was
granted a license witlr the qualitlcation
that dancing as it has been carried on
in his place must be stopped or bis
license will be revoked. The applica
tion of Patrick Corcoran, of Cedar ave
nue. In the Twentieth ward, was
granted, but It was ugainst the wishes
of Judge Archbald.
There aycre scarcely any licenses
grunted to upplleunts for new houses,
and many who have had licenses were
refused on the ground thut the luw was
violated by them last year. It was a
banner term of license court for re
monstrances, and the cognizance taken
by the court shows that the complaints
were heeded. The xperlence of the
judges In the criminal courts hud a
good deal to do with the refusing of
muny applications.
