RAILROAD NOTES.
Roundhouse men are having a jrood
time at the expense of Engineer W. D.
Roberts and his goat.
The Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western will have no pays today, but
will pay the- trainmen tomorrow.
Gus Duffy, Who was a delegate to the
convention of Brotherhood of Railway
Trainmen, at Galesburg, III., returned
to this city on Saturday.
Brakeman Frank Staples, of the Del

tle Bushkill;" he returned last evening
with the usual luck nothing.
August Mllbrandt, of the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western baggage
room, is sending out Invitations to his
friends to attend the wedding of him
self and Miss Matilda Rolf, on Thurs
day everting, June 20, at 1028 Webster

The National Switch and Signal com
pany of Easton, Pa., has been awarded
the contract for Installing a complete
Interlocking plant at Port Reading near
Bound Brook. This Is a crossing of the
Reading with the Lehigh Valley rail
road. This new machine replaces an
electro-pneumatic machine.
All but one or two of the Indian
apolis lines have adopted the plan of
carrying passengers between all stations
on Sunday at half-fare or one fare for
the round trip. This Is, no doubt, a
popular move, though it certainly Is
not In the direction of diminishing Sun
day traffic, which many roads favored
not long ago.
Because he was carried papt a flag
station where he Intended to stop, and
so had to walk back several miles, a
Methodist minister In Oklahoma sued
the Gulf Colorado and Santa Fe for
2,000 damages, but the court at Guthrie
has given a verdict for the railway, be
cause the train was not scheduled to
atop at that station. The point seems
to be that a railway company cannot
be punished for falling to accommodate
a passenger by making a special stop
for him.
At the recent meeting of the Ameri
can Society of Mechanical Engineers,
held on May 8, 1895, F. W. Dean read
a paper upon the efficiency of com
pound locomotives which Is one of the
most Interesting and Instructive papers
w.Meh have been prepared upon this
eubject. The most Important conclu
sion reached is that the compound loco
motive can, use as little as twenty
pounds of steam per hour per Indicated
horse-power, while the simple can not
use less than twenty-seven pounds, and
In passenger work such a result can be
obtained by avoiding a net loss of work
between the cylinders.

IT WAS CHILDREN'S DAY
1
Special Cxcrciscs Were Held In Many
of the Churches.
SOXG AXD FLOWEKS rROlTSE
Bright Sunshtno and All Blso Conspired
to Mnko the Day the Most Memo
rable of Its Kind In Ycorn-Ser-vice
in Many Churches.
Scenes of beauty, Joy and gladness,
the odor of fragrant flowers and tho
cheer of children's songs featured the
services throughout yesterday In muny
of tho churches. It was Children's
Day nml to the little ones the Sabbath
was devoted, in fact as well us In
theory.
Everything conspired to make tho nn
naul gathering a memorable one; no
plan miscarried, while the bright sun
shine, and an even temperature aided
in making this Children's Day
in all the churches the most succssful
ever held In this clly. The Juvenile
element, teachers, superintendents nnd
pastors had looked forward to the event
with much planning and pleasurable
anticipation, and when night had fal
len the older ones were assured that n
bright chapter hud been added to the
city's church history, while the children
were surely benefitted by what the day
had done for them.
In I hn Park Church.
Magnificent Elm Park church has
seldom contained such a large audience
as that which comfortably filled the
edifice during the morning service. The
Interior had been handsomely treated
with laurel blossoms, roses, peonies,
field lillies amid other Mowers, arranged
under the direction of Miss Grace Nor
ton nnd Miscs Sophie Schluger. Dur
ing a service of song nnd recitation the
pastor. Rev. Dr. W. H. Pearce. bap
tised thirty Infants and small children,
among them being the little ones of C.
D. Jones. Charles Schluger, F. P. Chrls
tion, Alfred Council and lleorga Scott.
Among the delightful features of the
programme were a solo, by Rose Sur
dam; recitation, Miss Maud Schluger;
recitation, Miss Josle Phelps; duett, the
Masters Walters, and a dialogue by
eight girls. Prayer was offered by At
torney Bowers, and an address made
by Captain W. A. May, superintendent
of the Sunday school. The pastor
spoke briefly. The musical features
were delightful, admirable service be
ing rendered by the church quartette
and the Epworth league and Sunday
School orchestra, led by Allan Law
rence. In the evening an informal
platform service was held and was
preceded by a music prelude of seven
numbers, consisting of solos, duetts
and quartettes by Miss Draeger, Miss
Sullivan, Alfred Wooler and Richard
Thomas. Short addresses were made
by the pastor. Captain May, William
Connell and Attorney Bowels.
Hrst Presbyterian Church.
In the First Presbyterian church the
day was celebrated by two services, one
in the morning by the main Sunday
school and another in the afternoon by
the South Side mission pupils and
teachers to the number vt nearly 500.
and whose limited quarters on the
South Side would not permit the ser
vices being held there. The same gen
eral programme was carried out at each
service, and was styled "The Cross, the
Country, the Child."
The singing of songs especially se
lected for the occasion were included in
each service. The services were con
ducted by the pastor, Rev. Dr. James
McLeod, and Louis F. Mattes, assistant
superintendent of the Sunday school.
who assisted the pastor in the absence
from the city of Superintendent A. W.
Dickson. An Invocation, two respon
sive readings and song preceded the
main exercise, during which Dr. Mc
Leod preached upon the training of
children for the sake of nation and
church. His remarks were directed to
both children and congregation. A
unique feature of the service was the
appearance of the primary department
of the Sunday school bearing flags of
the thirteen original states. A respon
sive exercise by these ilttle ones re
lated especially to matters patriotic.
Offerings were made for Sabbath school
missions and prizes presented, Including
Bibles for catechism recltalons. Dur
in the mission exercises of the after
noon the pastor made an appeal for
funds to build a chapel for the South
Side mission, the membership of which
has grown to such an extent as to make
the present quarters Inadequate.
In North End Churches.
At the Asbury Methodist church the
annual Children's Day exercises were
held in the morning. An organ volun
tary opened the services, followed by a
hymn, "Consider the Lilies." The Sun
day school Joined In a responsive read
ing led by the superintendent. The
rest of the service was upon the mot
toes: "Duty," "Obedience," "Sincer
ity," "Truth," "Wisdom," "Humility,"
"Service," "Love," "Endeavor," "Cul
ture." "Life" and "Self Surrender.'
Each motto was represented by a pil
grim, who was In quest of the object
which the motto named. After other
hymns had been sung, an offering was
made. The service cioseu wun congre
gational singing.
The day was observed last evening In
the Providence Christian church. The
exercise, "The Light of the World,"
was beautifully rendered by the Sun
day school. The church was hand
Bomely decorated with ferns, ever
greens, laurels and patted plants. A
large arch of evergreens and laurels
extended over the pulpit, upon which.
In gold letters, shone the motto, "The
Light of the World." In the center of
the platform a fountain arose amid a
pyramid of ferns and plants. The
songs by the little ones, and especially
the recitations, were very attractive.
In the morning the roll call of the con
gregation was held. The church was
crowded, very few falling to respond to
their names.
Providcnco Presbyterian Church.
Special exercises In the. Providence
Presbyterian church attracted a con
gregation which filled the edifice even
to the aisles. The. handsome audience
room was profusely decorated by the
generous use of ferns, evergreens, pot
ted plants, daisies and a variety of cut
flowers. These were,tatstlly arranged
about tke altar and windows; large
flags we displayed, which were es
pecially appropriate In view of the title
of children's day exerclsas, which was
"The Cross, the Country, the Child."
The exercises were under the general
direction of the superintendent, H. II.
McKeehan, who had reason to feel
gratified over t'he eervices, which were
so greatly enjoyed. The singing was
conducted by ReeBO Watklns, assisted
by the regular choir. A brief and In
teresting address was made by the
pastor, Rev. George, E. Guild, taken
from the text, "We. Can." The offer
ing of the day was for Sunday school
mission work. The large audience en
joyed the vesper service in the even
ing, which was in charge of the pastor,
who gave a very interesting address on
"Seven Bible Reasons for Thankful
ness." Four pieces of special music
was rendered by the choir. The" duet
by Mrs. Heckel and Miss Parry, "The
Lord Is My Shepherd," and, aUo, the
solo "The Holy City," by W. Evans,
basso, were of high excellence. There
were a number of birds In cages located
about tho room during both services
and they sung very sweetly.
On the South side.
Owing to the brief absence In Phila
delphia of the pastor, Rev. August
Lange, of the Hickory Street Presby
terian church, the Children's Day ex
ercises were under the direction of
Organist John Lentes. Every seat In
the edifice was filled and a wealth of
flowers made tho church an entrancing
picture. The vivacity of youth was
everywhere apparent nnd nil the ar
rangements were perfect. Singing In
chorus by the Sunday school began the
exercises. The special numbers were a
worthy feature. The churuh choir sang
"Let Us Help to liulld Up Klon," nnd
followed with another beautiful hymn,
"Lowly ZUm." Tlw young IManner
chor Hang two rapturous selections, and
Miss Lena Lentes sang "I Am Small,
Hut My Heart is C'leau." Tho refrain
of this was sang by the following quar
tette; Mia. Fred Kirchhoff, soprnno;
Mrs. Trues tor, alto; Fred Herman,
tenor; Theodore Invert, ba3, A quar
tette of the children, Willie Gutheln.,
Katie Hedrlch, 10 mm a Mels and Wnlter
Solmner, sang "Hear the Little Bells
Kinging." The children In chorus sung
"Birds in the High Tree," nnd the con
clusion of tho musical numbers wan
the rendition of suveral Selections by
the Scrunton Saengerrunde Zither club.
Interspersed were solos nnd recitations
by children. The exercises were con
cluded with an address by Mr. Lentes,
who congratulated the' children on their
success'.
