PERSONAL CHIT-CHAT.
"We don't even make a respectable
showing against them," was D. X
Campbell's comment after leaving the
ball park Saturday, where he wit
nessed the Seranton-Wilkes-Barre
game. "Those Wllkes-Barre players,
h continued, "are In. the game from
beginning to end. They fiKht for vic
tory all the time and. that's what
brings success in base ball as In every
thing els-j."
Bernard Mairargee appeared on the
streets Saturday with a big white and
green sun shade, which he held aloft to
protect himself from the fierce rays of
Old Sol. "That's the proper thing for
this weather." said Mr. Magargee, re
ferring to the umbrella. "It allows
you to remain In the shade all the time,
and the heat does not seem near so
oppressive. I'm sorry I didn't adopt
the sun shade years ago."
"I've gone over to the boys again,"
declared P. V. Gallagher, of the Trac
tion company, yesterday as he brought
to bear on a coterie of his friends that
genial smile that has made him fa
mous. He had reference to the fact
that the handsome mustache that was
wont to ornament his face had disap
peared, leaving nothing to hinder the
play of that smile. Although he tips
the scale at 230 pounds Mr. Gallagher
was not complaining of the heat; he
never does. When Mr. Gallagher was
mere stripling of a boy he cultivated
a full beard; as time rolled by he re
duced the hirsute growth to a mus
tache, and now the latter has disap
peared, bringing the former owner
back to the boys, as he says himself.
"That was an uncalled for attack
the Sunday News made on Lieu
tenant John Davis today," said a
well-known man about town to a Trib
une reporter yesterday. "The lieuten
ant simply did his duty as required by
the police regulations, and for that was
attacked. If fault is to be found It
ahould be laid against the regulations,
and not against those who are sworn
to enforce them.. It Is that character
of unwise remarks which ruin disci
pline and cause those who know not
the real facts to lose respect for police
authority."
"Brother Sturges, who owns the Su
burban Electric Light company, will
not allow us to have clectlrc light In
the park Sunday nights, so we have to
make use of these," said Manager J. H.
Lalne. of Laurel Hill park, last night,
pointing to the headlights with which
the park was studded. "llut we're
open Just the same you see, and we
have light. It's not quite so brilliant
as the electric, but It answers the pur
pose. As for me, I can't see where the
harm of having the park Illuminated
on Sunday night comes In. Perhaps
Brother Sturges has a more keen sense
of the eternal fitness of things than I
have."
Deputy Prothonotarv Mvmn v
was one of the sweltering Scrantonlans
who fled the city Saturday to escape
the heat. He started for Susquehanna
county, accompanied by the kind of
hat affected by the late Carter Harri
son, an overcoat and an umbrella. "I'm
prepared for a change of the weather,"
Bald Mr. Kasson, as he shifted his
overcoat to his left arm and mopped
away the sweat that was falling from
the ends of his Blsmarks.
"No use of talking, there's no place
like the boundless west," emphatically
declared Barrister W. W. Baylor Satur
day as he entertained his friends with
an eloquent description of his Journey
across the continent to the Pacific
slope, and then up to Seattle. Mr. Buy.
lor returned Thursday from his west
ern trip, which was of a business na
ture in the Interests of one of his
clients.

and effective. I recommend them when

SERVICES OF WHITSUNDAY
Observance of '''Day" at St. Luke's
Church and St. Peter's Cathedral.
REV. ROGEKS ISRAEL'S SERMON
He Treated of Identity, Work, and Reccp
tlon of Holy Ghost and Hcsults of
Ills Reception -Sormon at Ciitlio
dial by Hcv. J. II. Mcllugh.
Services appropriate to Whitsunday
were held yejtorday In -St. Luke's
church, Kev. llogers Israel, rector. Ills
morning discourse treated of the de
scent of the Holy Ghopt and was bast-d
upon Pt. John, xllll, 23: "If a man love
me he will keep my words, and my fa
ther will love him and we will come
unto lllm and make our abode with
Him." The rector treated of the Iden
tlty, work and reception ot the Holy
Ghost unci the results of his reception.
According to on old church custom a
baptism service was conducted in the
afternoon, when five children were bap
tized. Holy Communion was adminis
tered at 7.30 o'clock a. m. and after the
morning service. The music was char
acterlstlc of the day, und included a
special anthem during the morning ser
vice. At St. Peter's Cathedral.
Pentecost Pumluy was observed at St
Peter's cathedral, as Is 'Hie usual cus
tom on this feast of the church, with a
solemn high mass of thauksivlng, of
which Rev. Father Quinnau was the
celiibrant; Kev. Father Feeley .deacon
Hev. Father Millane, Bub-deacon, and
Kev. Father O'iteilly master -f cere
monks. Music was rendered by the
choir In an excellent manner, and the
services throughout were very Impres
sive.
Rev. J. A. AI oil ugh preached the ser
mon from the epistle of the mass, which
Is taken from the Acts of the Apostles
II, I-Il. He took the fifth verse as his
text: "Now 'there were dwelling at
Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of
every nation under the sun." The ser
mon went on to prove that the world
was Catholic on the day of Pentecost
for the Scriptures say that, "there were
gathered at Jerusalem men from every
nation under the sun." Twenty-four
years later St. Paul said: "I give thanks
to my God through Jesus Christ for you
all, because your faith Is spoke In the
whole world."
ResoiiKht Prayers for Holy Father.
The speaker ibesought prayers for 'the
Holy Father, that all churches may be
united under him and be guided by the
teachings of the one true church. He
quoted the famous English historian,
Macaulay. who paid a high tribute to
the durability of the Catholic church
as a human institution, me speaKer
disputed the assertion that the church
is human. It is human in so far as the
Incarnation of the Savior Is concerned,
he admitted, but the foundation ot the
church is in the divinity of the incar
nate Son.
The sermon was summarized under
three heads. Catholicity of space, Cath-
cliclty of doctrine, and Catholicity of
time. Christ said to His apostles: "Go
forth, teach all nations." This shows
that Christ Intended that the Catholic
religion should be the one of all nations
with no limits or boundaries. Christ in
tended that there should be a universal
ity of doctrine, for he said, too, to His
disciples: "Teach all things that I have
taught you." In 1870, at the Vatican
council In Rome, were gaithered to
gether theologians of every division of
politics, of customs, and of every color.
They were all united In the one doc
trine.
I Am With You All Roys.
The Catholicity of time is shown by
Christ, speaking through the mouths of
his prophets, in the Scriptural passage:
Behold, I am with you all days, even
to the consummation of the world."
Man cannot patch God's work, and the
true church cannot come from the hand
of man. The Holy Ghost is the spirit
of the church and will abide with It for
ever.
In the conclusion of the sermon the
speaker made use of the words of St.
Paul: "May the grace ot our ixni
Jesus Christ and the charity of God and
the communication of the Holy Ghost
be with us all, amen."
CHRISTIAN LOYALTY.
George O. Mnhy's Dlscourso In, the Green
Ridge Ilnptist Church.
General Secretary George G. Mahy,
of the Young Men's Christian associa
tion, occupied the pulpit of the Green.
Hldge Baptist church last evening; the
pastor, Kev. w. Ford, conduoteu we
services In the New York Street Pres
byterian chapel.
"Loyalty In Service" was Secretary
Mahy's subject, based on Revelation,
ill, S. He said:
'This epistle, to the angel of the
church at Philadelphia, Is supposed by
a good many Bible students to be pair-
tteularly a message to this age. We
know that "Philadelphia" na-ns broth
erly love. And It Is true that this Is an
age of religious tolerance, of Interde
nominational effort, and of broad
minded sympathy between brethren,
who hold enitlrely opposite views on
many Important suhjeets. That this
spirit Is upon us In this age should be
a matter of profound graitltude 'to God,
for U Is vastly more Chrlat-Uke thnn the
ninowneps and potty Jealousies of
th? sectarianism of bygone days. Yeit
this eilrlt brings new dangers and pe
culiar temptations In Its train, for tol
erance may become mere Indifference,
and what we call llberal-mindedneas
may be unbelief.
The Anchor of I'nltli.
"In this passage which we have read,
God has given us the anchor of- faith.
And so long as the church holds by
these eho will be tolerant, liberal and
progressive yen, more, she Is definitely
promised power, protection and reward.
The , anchors are: First, loyalty to
God's word 'Thou haa kept my word,'
and second, fidelity to Christ 'and host
not denied my name.'
"We seem In these days to bo enter
ing upon a period vastly more danger
ous to the happiness and welfare of the
souls of man than the recent period
of avowed hoctllity to the cause of
Christ. For there are many wolves In
s Keeps' clothing, whose attacks upon
the word of God are subtle and deadly,
and all the more dangerous because
they are delivered by men who occupy
positions of Influence and power among
men. Many new and strange doctrines
are being proclaimed as Christian doc
trines; many and varied experiments
aire being tried for the salvation of men,
as If the cross of Christ had lost its
power. . It is a time for examining the
cables leading tto' the anchor of loyal
ty to God's word; .'-..
He Would lie Most Miserable. '
"The second anchor to 'Fidelity to
Christ himself.' . About Him rages the
conflict between righteousness and evil.
Disprove His blessed incarnation and
spot less purity, and atoning death and
glorious resurrection, and promised
coming again), and as Christians we aie
of all men mast miserable. ' '.Neither in
there ealvaiMon In uny. other, for there
ia irono citwr name giver under heaven
among men whereby 'vy muwt bo
saved.' Acts, lv, 12. And li Is precisely
Ix-ciause Christ Is tlna chiif corrour stone
that He lias bc-w attached. His Incar
nation denied, and His atonement ex
plained away as the inLsituken sacrifice
of an enthusiast.
"We, who have been bouvht with the
precious blood nnd delivered from
bondage by his death, know the worth
of tho glorious redemption. And to
night God's call comes to us with force
und power, 'Behold, I wt before you on
oH'n door; the promt world is dying for
the bread of life,' for the sturdy, un
compromising iNvmiirtaiion and pro
mulgation of 'the whole Gospel,
throughout lh: earth. Var tolerance
tluit has In it the, Intelligent love of
Christ: for liberality ttttrt will Ignore
external differences, yet sot Its face
like a tllnt against any KMvcrlflce of prin
ciple who nmoaig us are ready for In
stant service along thoHo lines wkth
those conditions under this banner, on
which l: liwribril 'loyalty to God's
Word" and 'Fidelity to Ills Christ'?"

Rev. D. M. Klnter preached last even
ing to a large congregation In the
Christian church on the subject of "Fu
ture Punishment." Ho took for his
text Jeremiah, xlll, 21, "What wilt thou

said: "Tho word of God Is addressed
both to our hopes and fears, as It con
tains many precious promises, also
many threatening of future punish
ments. Hometlmes this punishment
comes in this world by tihe dlrectxdcpo
sltlnn of Clod, hut It will surely be In
lllcttd after death, and If Christ's word
la to be taken In preference to man's
this punishment will be everlasting.
You can't say that you were not
warned, for Christ's words are full of
warning on this subject, and friends
and ministers, besides your own con
science, have all warned you, as Is
well known to the merciful and long
suffering God. This future punishment
may be averU-d, however, by the obey
ing of the reasonable commnnris of
God and there Is left no excuse for the
disregarding of them."

Ouny and Apportionment.
Killtor of Tho Tribune.
Sir: Thepowerof BeiiatorQuny has never
been more sti-lklnk-ly Illustrated thnn In
thu submlnwiveiieHS of the Republican
members of the legislature to his behe.it
In killing the apportionment bills. And
never has Hetiator Quay made a more re
rnni kiihlc exhibition of Hhort-KlirhteilncHs
as a political leader than when ho gat'o
the order for tho defeat of the apportion
ment bills. That act was something more
ami also something worse than short
sighted ; It was an net of bad faith, for to
many of thoHo who have been Ills friends
he had given assurance that he would not
interfere to prevent the passage of acts
reapportioning the state. Tho Junior sen
ator may claim that the killing of those
bills Is a pemonal victory. It unquestion
ably Illustrates and einphaslr.es his power
over the Republican members of tho legis
lature, but that In Itself constitutes only a
very slender victory. Such an exercise
of arbitrary power on tho part of a recog
nized political lender never falls to dimin
ish his influence with the musses of his
party; more than that) It decreases popu
lar respect for him.
When Senator Quay gave the order for
the defeat of the apportionment bills bo
struck a blow nt the honor of the Repub
lican party. When a Kepubllcun legisla
ture In 1S'.I3 passed apportionment bills tin 1
a Democratic governor vetoed them, the
Indignation of the Republican press and
eoplo found expression In unmeasured
denunciation of the governor. Republican
conventions denounced the partisan ac
tion of Governor 1'attison, and everywhere
the Republican press and party leaders de
clared that the only way to secure appor
tionments that would give fair. Just and
equal representation was to elect a Repub
lican governor and a Republican legisla
ture In 1S'.II. This proposition was over
whelmingly responded to by the people of
Pennsylvania. A Republican governor
was elected by the unprecedented majority
of nearly a quarter of a million, ami a
legislature chosen that Is almost unani
mously Republican.
And now, In utter amazement, the people
of Pennsylvania see the great leader of the
Republican party of the state issuing nil
order to defeat apportionments, anil, wn:it
Is Infinitely worse, tho legislature compln
cently obeys that order. Senator (juity
has made the greatest mistake of his polit
ical career. He has run counter to a
righteous demand of the people of Pinn-
sylvanla. lie has commanded that tho
legislature Ignore a constitutional obliga
tion and mandate. He has ordered a V.c.
publican legislature to violate the pledges
made by the party to the people of this
commonwealth.
No personal or political Into'-est Sena
tor Quay can possibly have at xtnkj can
bo urged In Justification or extenuation of
an act like this. For two years ior? un
equal and unjust representation must con
tinue. Luzerne and Lackawanna conn
ties, with their more than 3S0.0OI) pc-oplo
will continue to have only two senators,
while Schuylkill and Lancaster with less
than 3i,00) will have four senators. Coun
ties that are entitled to additional rep
resentatives In the lower hous.? of the leg
islature will not get them, while other
counties will have more than they are en
titled to under the constitution.
Senator Quay says this Is all rlht. The
people say It is all wrong. The Repub
lican party must In the end suffer for this
unjuat and, unfair policy, unless. Indeed,
the Republican members of tht legisla
ture shall yet determine to Ignore the
short-sighted command of Senator Quay
and carry out the pledges maclo by tho
Republican party to the people In the last
campaign. The people will stand by and
ndorse Governor Hastings In his earnest
efforts to secure tho enactment of fair
apportionment bills. It Is not yet too late
for Senator Quay to retrace his steps and
get In line with Republican sentiment.
The Republicans of Pennsylvania have
forgiven him for Impolitic acts In tho past,
but there may be a limit to their forebenr-
nnce. L.

On Aupr 3, 1894, the vault In tho post
oflleo In this city wus forced open und
JS.ooi) tn stamps removed. It was not
until tho next day Ihut the poKtofllee
olllcluls became aware that the stamps
were tnlssliiK anil the di-parlment at
Washington wasat once notllled. Inspec
tors were hurried toithln city by tho de
partment to InvoHtiffate tho nature of
the rubbery and try wnd discover tho
persons who committed It.
It wa ait first suspected that some
one connected with the local ollice was
Riillty for everything pe-ntainlnfr to the
Job showed that those who executed
It had cxuK't knowledge - to the "lay"
of tho btilldlni? mud the manner In
which the business connected with. It
wns carried on.
For weeks employes were cnreftilly
shadowed, s soon os one Inspector be
came known another belnu; assigned to
take his place, but no headway was
made In unravelling tho mystery,
similar Itnbheiy nt llohuken.
On Dec. 3, the poHtofllee, at lloboken,
N. J., wns rilled of ftamps amounting
to Jfl,.rilir, In exactly the minis' manner
ns thp Scranton otllce. This confirmed
the theory of many of the Inspectors
that the Scranton robbery was tho
work ot professionals. Several small
robberies In points widely removed fol
lowed tho Holioken' robbery, nnd on
April 3 came the robbery of the Kprinw
fleld, 111., poslnlllee of $7,.'!00 worth of
stumps.
All of this time the Inspectors had
been hard nt work, and Friday In New
York ithey succeeded In arrestln.tr Jo
seph Klllora.n, Charlse Allen, John
Moore nnd Harry Husscll after a Ions
nnd exclltlnp; chase.
These men were nrraljfned before
United States Commissioners Shields,
In New York, on Saturday, nnd were
held in. $5,000 ball each for their ap
pearance ait a further hearing today.
Yesterday's New York Herald said of
tho men:
Suspected of llnnk Robberies Also.
"AlthoiiKh these men are charged
with tho extensive robberies of post
oflices Iji Hoboken, N. J.; Scramton, Pa.,
and Springfield, 111., nnd are suspected
of having been concerned In a $22,000
bank robbery In rialnflcld, N. J., re
cently, It Is believed that charges even
more sensational will be made when
they are arraigned before Commission
er Shields tomorrow afternoon. The
postofllce Inspectors have promised to
have their witnesses ready then.
"From a remark made by Moore,
when he was examined yesterday. It Is
thought that other big robberies have
been discovered, or that the )nsiectorfl
have dl4cored, ia postofflce officio!
who assisted the thieves in getting rid
of the immense nunounit of stamps
which .they secured.
"The robberies in Hoboken, Scranton
and Springfield bore evidence of the
same handiwork. Federal detectives
have said that there were only twelve
men In tho country who could have
done the work. They have four prison
ers now, and I was told yesterday on
good authority that they were on tho
trail of at least three other men, who
are believed to have been the chief
villains In tho plot and whose capture
would prove of even greater Importance
than that ot the men now In custody.
Think They Have llroken t'p the (inng.
"The postofllce Inspectors nre satisfied
that they have broken up one of the
most during 'gangs' of robbers that
ever operated. j
"The crime for which Moore was sent
to Sing Sing was ia burglary, for which
he received a sentence of seventeen
years and six months. This, together
with the fact that tho postofllce robbers
are believed to be bank 'sneaks' who
have turned their attention to stamt
robberies, led the detectives to suspect
me prisoners ot the Plalnflnld bank
burglary.
"Moore wns pardoned after serving
seven years of his sentence, and was re
leased on April 1 of this year. The
most recent ot the postolllce robberies
yet made public was that In Springfield,
111., on Aiprll 3, and Moore, when nrrest
ed on Friday, promptly nsserted that
his presence In Sing Sing established an
alibi. This story was Investigated and
It was found that Moore really was In
prison when the Hoboken robbery oc
curred. What Puzzles Inspectors.
"What has puzzled the Inspectors
most Is how the men, who stole $22,000
wonth of stamps, contrived to get rid of
their 'booty. To peddle them even In
smnll lots must have excited suspicion
before long. They must have had an
agent, who knew something about the
detmlls of tho postolllce system, the In
spectors think."
