Largo Pili; of Hooks timbered for tho
African Mission.
A successful book reception was held
nt the African Methodist Episcopal
chmvh, Howard plaae, last tilnht, when
the ladles' MItu Missionary society
wero successful In collecting 4S8 books
to be forwarded to tho African mission
fields. Key C. A. McUe?, In opening
the meeting, explained the objects of
the Mite Missionary society.
Mrs. William Holland read an able
paper on "Why We Should Assist," and
emphasised the fact that although they
could not cross the ocean they could
send something, und that was the pith
of the movement. Mis. MeClee read a
paper on "The Wants of the Heathen,"
which was written In a trite manner.
A cry of "help" came continually
across the ocean, and In a letter re
ceived a few weeks ago uno of the mis
sionaries complained that they were
continually writing In vain, und
churches, where they enjoyed every
prospect of progress, would be aban
doned owing to lack of help. Provi
dence had sent their ancestors over to
this country In order that they should
be Christianized and send the good
work along, among their heathen
breuthrun in their native country.
Some In this country were disinclined
to acknowledge the relation between
themselves and the people of Africa,
but she was proud of it to proclaim her
self a negro, but not a "nigger." She
urged that it was a bounden duty upon
them to help their heathen people and
to assist with the "shining light" of the
Holy (jospel. Each one had a duty to
perform, however small, and God was
calling upon them In the present day
as he had never done before.
II y the conclusion of the meeting
about 500 books were received for the
purpose stated. Light refreshments
were served before the meeting dis
persed. CONCERT AT ELM PARK.
Many beautiful Vocal and Instrumental
Numbers Given.
The admirable suppers served by the
Ladies' Aid society of the Kim Park
church contributed so much to that
feeling of comfort In one's sorround
Ings, and general pence with all man
kind, that better preparation for the
concert that usually follows thetn could
scarcely be secured.
Contributions to the evening's enter
tainment Included Miss Robhin, of New
York, Mrs. Itoston-Williams and Messrs.
Wooler and Thomas. Miss Robhln's
singing of two dainty little ballads was
extremely effective, but she was not so
successful In Haydn's florid aria,
"With Verdure Clad." other Items on
tht programme were duetts by Mrs.
lioston-Wllllums and Mr. Wooler, und
by Messrs. Wooler and Thomas. It
was a disappointment that Mrs. irs-ton-Wllllams
was not sufficiently well
to appear ns a soloist. Her beuutlful,
rich voice Is always pleasing.
Mr. Carter's work on the organ was
restricted to two numbers, his chief -d'auvre
being "Love's Dream After the
Hall," a work not usually included In
the repertoire of organists, but one to
which tho professor bent all his mas
terly skill and brilliancy of expression.
Tho spneious auditorium of the
church was crowded during the re
cital, and at the close Dr. Pearce took
ndvuntage of tho occasion to express
his appreciation of the professor's mnr
vellotis skill us exhibited In his treat
ment of the two solos ho had chosen for
tho evening's programme.

DEMOCRATS CAN I S.
Nealls and McLean Named as Candidates
for Chairman and Secretary.
Itefore last night's meeting of com
mon council the Democrat lo members,
excepting Members Grler, Noone anil
Lol'tus, held a third and final caucus,
and decided upon President Nealls and
Clerk McLean as candidates to suc
ceed themselves In the coining reor
ganlKutlon. The three absentees, It Is said, are
bolters from the regular caucus, and
will, with the Republican members, vote
for Mr. Grler for president. AVhat posi
tion Clerk McLean occupies In the split
does not appear. Some claim that the
Grler men will vote for a Republican
clerk.
For the select branch chairmanship,
Mr. Westpfahl has been regularly nom
inated by the Republicans. The Demo
crats have not decided on a candidate,
nor Is it likely that they will do so un
less as a matter of form.
The whole matter summed up Indi
cates that the reorganization of coun
cils will result ns follows:
Mr. Westpfahl, Republican chairman
of select council.
Mr. Torrey, Republican city solicitor.
Mr. Grler, Democratlo chairman of
common council.
Mr. McLean, Democratlo clerk of

MRS. RICHARDS' LECTURE.
Discussed the Works of Ulcliardson mid
Held ing.
Mrs. M. T. Richards, In continuing
the series of English and Biblical lec
tures, delivered the firth of her course
last evening at the residence of Mrs.
Thomas Dickson, on Washington ave
nue, when she began a study of the
novelists of England, dwelling particu
larly on the works of Rlchurdson and
Fielding.
As a prelude to her lecture Mrs. Rich
ards gave an Instructive retrospective
view of prose und poetry, their origin
and development. Poetry was divided
Into three divisions, lyric, narrative
and dramatic, and prose presented
counterparts to these divisions. For ex
ample prose set forth oratory as a
counterpart to lyric poetry and the sev
eral varieties of fiction as a counterpart
to the narrative poetry.
The demand for "stories" In the early
centuries was then exemplified In their
inception from the short tales of gal
lantry ot the Italian type and French
tales of chivalry of the Twelfth century
to the development of the reign of
Queen Anne. In no part of Europe
was a greater tendency shown for prose
than In Great Britain, where the nar
rative has predominated ever since.
The collections of the Welsh and Amor
lean bards were utilized In the develop
ments of prose.
The lives, works nnd different styles
of Fielding and Richardson were then
analyzed In an entertaining manner,
nnd the large ussembly evinced consid
erable Interest in the excellent treat
provided.
WOODEN BLOCKS MAY GO.
There Is a Probability That Penn Avenue
Will Ho Paved.
It Is the opinion of councllmen that
Penn avenue will be paved during 1W.j
this despite the fact that the $2,C(K) stir
plus revenue has been appropriated for
opening Wyoming avenue between
Phelps and Ash streets, and despite the
fact that Mr. Duir, the Eighth ward
representative, was unsuccessful In
having the Wyoming avenue appropria
tion set aside In favor or Penn avenue.
It Is explained that the recent tri
ennial city assessments have Increased
valuations $.000,000 which, from the
10-mlll tax for general city expenses.
will bring Into the treasury 120.000 not
Included 1n the city controller s est!
mate of revenues. This sum will be
added to tho Incidentals and Judgments
fund and if necessary n portion of It
can later be used for paving Penn ave
nue.
Councllmen seem to be united In the
belief that Penn avenue Is n nasty blot
on the city's otherwise well paved ave
nues, anil should be the next Important
matter to engage their favorable con
slderatlon.

KEAS0NS THAT HE ADVANCES
Says tho Hood Is In lienor Shape Now
Than Ever Ilcforc-I.ast Week llurkc
Brothers llought Pour Hundred
Shares of tho Stock.
The article In yesterday's Tribune
relative to contemplated changes In the
management ond operation of the lines
of the Hcranton Traction company In
this city created no little surprise and
much comment.
People generally credited the present
management with giving the most effi
cient service over known in tho history
of the road, while the same was true of
the road bed and equipment.
Among those who are Interested in
the company's, tirfalrs in this cltv fire
the Well known contractors. 1 Incite
Brothers, who own the major portion
of the stocks and bonds held In the city.
When approached on this subject yes
terday Timothy liurko said:
"There Is absolutely not u vestige of
truth In the entire statement, and when
I called up tin; firm of E. W. Clarke &
Co., of Philadelphia, ny telephone this
morning Waller Clarke, one or Its mem
bers, slated that there was no truth in
the rumor. There seems to be an effort
on the part of certain Individuals In
this city to depreciate the values of this
property. What their motives are they
alone can tell, but If they hope to be
personally benefited by any such pro
ject they are In error. The property of
this company hns never been In such
shape as it Is at present, nnd It has
never been so well managed. The re
ceipts are larger than ever before, nnd
tin- first two weeks of this month show
ing an increase of 15 per cent, over
the corresponding period of last year.
Operating I ptnsen Arc Low.
"These are facts that the directorate
Is entirely cognizant of, nnd when It Is
taken Into consideration that the opei
ating expenses, Into which everylhlni
enters, is lower than ever before, It does
not seem probable that a change would
b. even thought of, much less desired.
"I was Instrumental In causing the
chunges that took place last year, us
It was owing to representations made
by me In Philadelphia that the change
was made that resulted in Mr. Rcetem
being placed ut the helm In this city
It seemed to me at that time that a
movement of the same character as
that reported yesterday was on foot
and the Investigation at that time war
ranted the assertion I bad made.
"Does it seem reasonable then," said
Mr. Burke, "that a change is to be
desired at thin time? As a director of
the company, 1 can say with safety,
and my statement will be borne out In
Philadelphia, that there Is no deslr
of transferring this property. Electric
street railroading In this city Is in its
Infancy and the prospects are very
bright. I do not say that if a good
offer were received It would be rejected
but this much I will say, that any
change In management has never been
contemplated, and a change such as
that mentioned yesteiduy Is not even
among the possibilities of a very re
mote future.
Complimented .Mr. llcctem.
"There Is one other matter I would
like to refer to," snld Mr. Hurke, "and
that Is the present nctlng manager's
thoroughness. I have had an experi
ence of twenty years in railroading,
and I have yet to see the man who has
Impressed me ns favorably as Mr. Meet
em. His peer ns a financier is not In
this section, and although receiving
a very large salary he has more than
saved it during the past year by ee
nnniical purchases. 1 know also thut
Mr. Beetem has received some very
flattering offers from other corpora
tions but has refused them because he
felt that until the property In this city
was In first class shape his first allegi
ance was due to E. W. Clarke & Co."
Concluding, Mr. Rurke said: "It Is
only lust week that Rurke Urothers
bought 400 shares of the stock that
were held In this city. It would be
preposterous to assume that we would
throw away our money. If we did not
have full ccnlldenee In the stability of
the company, and while the present
management continues our confidence
will remain unshaken. Tho proujerty,
while not being nil that Is desirable,
is a big Improvement over what It was."

Owing to the bursting of a water
main in the street in front of our
store, by which our basement was
flooded to the depth of six feet
with water, we have had about
$4,000 worth of goods damaged,
consisting of a large line of
COATS,
GAPES,
SKIRTS,
ETC.
OF ALL THE
SPRING STYLES.
TOMORROW
We Will lkgin a
DLL
Of the Entire Stock at a
Of so m cor.
The stock is nearly as good a-
new, the water having had but
little effect upon it.
REMEMBER.
These goods are all this
Spring's Styles, and no such
opportunity to buy cheap
will ever occur again.

SUITS
FOR EVERYBODY.
Once in a while soinebocty
conies in and says : " Yon
ready-made folks can't fit me.''
That man has had hard luck;
he's been into a small ready
made store or a big oue,vhere
they don't keep sizes enough
or where sizes don't fit:
IT IS DIFFERENT HERE
OUR sizes fit, and there
are alwa's plenty of them
plenty, for example, of thosa
nice Mixed Cheviots and
Tweed Suits, plenty of those
delicately woven, 'et very
hand', Worsteds. Suits for
slim men, stout men and all
sorts of men. Call and see.
