ASKING AID PROM CHURCHES Evangelist Schtsverea's Coaing-Seasoa of the Pastors' Exodas-St. Lake's Free Exesraion to Lake Ariel Was Great Success. Those who believe that the Sabbath observance crusade Is dead have not surmised well. It is only dormant and Is about to be wakened Into a new life by the Sabbath Union, notwithstanding the 111 success which met their efforts last year. Rev. P. A. Dony, secretary of the Northeastern Pennsylvania Sab bath Union, says that a new and more aggressive campaign will he started forthwith. Last Tuesday there was a meeting of the board of managers at the office of the president J. W. MullenbaCk, In Wllkes-Barre, where a plan of vigorous procedure was decided upon. They will strive to enlist the services of the pastors of all the churches, asking them to preach a ser mon on this toplo and to Interest their congregation in the work. They will also ask that two members be selected from each church to co-operate with the general committee. Mr. Dony will make a personal appeal to the pastors this year. Heretofore, particularly last year, the response to the Union's writ ten appeal was not general and this Is Judged to be the cause of the Ineffectual results of the crusade. Mr. Dony says that the union Is confident of success The Board of Managers Is composed of the following prominent gentlemen J. W. Hollenback. president ex officio, Wllkes-Barre: A. W. Dickson, Scranton; J. L. Stelle, Scranton; F. A. Dony, Scran ton; Paul J, Sherwood, Wllkes-Barre; W, L. Conygham. Wllkes-Barre; Rev. T. A. Mills. Wllkes-Barre; Andrew Thompson, Honesdale; Daniel Sayre, Montrose; John B. Storm. Stroudsburg; George A. Guernsey, Canton; J. F. Bar ber, Hazleton; H. M. Hlnkley, Danville; Sterling W. Dickson, Berwick; S. M. Parke, Pittston; H. A. Fuller, Wllkes- Barre. Sorsnton's Retired Clergy. Scranton has its colony of retired clergymen and It Is particularly true of each of them that they are ever ready at certain Intervals to enter the pulpit or perform cither functions of their calling. A case In point Is contained In the announcement that Rev. George M. Peck will preach in the Providence Methodist Episcopal church tomorrow, It will be his semi-centennial sermon, he having for fifty years labored as minister. Most of this period has been spent In this valley. The announcement that Evangelist Schieverea will soon come to Scranton to begin a tent campaign on the South Side has created a sentiment of pleas ure among Christian people In this vicinity, but it is a special gratification to he element who so generously sup port and Who particularly approve of this democratic method of "reaching the mosses." While Schieverea has not the national reputation nor the varied managerial experience of the pioneer Moody, he vies with that noted evange list In the capabilities peculiar to the evengellstlc style of work. The .plans for the coming campaign are noted more In detail In The Tribune's local columns. At this particular season more pas. tors are on their vacations than at the same corresponding period of any re. cent year, at least euch was the state, ment made by a well known church man yesterday. For this reason an un usual difficulty has been met in secur Ing occupants for the many church pul pits and it has been noted that an un usual number of emergency preachers are from outside the city. One Practical Charity. The fact that 1,700 persons, which In cluded ICO babies in arms, 1,050 child ren and 500 mothers, were on Thursday given a day's outing at Lake Ariel by the St. Luke's Free excursion. Is the one splendid argument In favor of that one of Scran ton's most popular and most practical charities. In previous years an exact count of the excursionists has been made, but this was Impossible on Thursday because the expectations of the committee were more than realized and the twelve cars were insufficient to accommodate the large throng. Each car was so crowded that passage was Impossible and the committee had to content itself with an estimate count. The excursion was under the Immediate direction of the following committee: Chairman, C. B. Derman, Mr. Hazzard, 8. H. Stevens, J. C. Highrlter, George Merrlman, Thomas Jackson, and Broth er Francis. They were assisted by the following auxiliary committee of ladles: Mrs. Hazzard, Mrs. R. J. Foster, Mrs. Osland, Mrs. A. . E. Pettlgrew, Miss Josle Lees, Misa Annie Duval, Miss Williams, Miss Weaver, Miss Sherer, Miss Hazzard and Mrs. J. H. Bunnell. Birthday Party at Asbury M. E. Church. The Ladies' Aid society of the As bury Methodist Episcopal church, Green Ridge, held a birthday party last night. Silk "bags were sent to each member of the congregation by ladles of the board, and each person was requested to bring them to the birthday party with the number of pennies that they were years old. Dur ing the evening Tallle Morgan and a select party of singers gave a very In teresting concert. Those who took part were: Miss Lydla Sailer, Miss Grace and Miss Anna Rose, D. C. Richards, Edwin Bowen and Walter Kipple. The church was beautifully decorated with flags, bunting and flowers, and this with the elegant and Interesting music pleased a large audience, which filled the church parlors. After the concert the ladles served numerous palatable refreshments to a large number free. Little Notes of the Church World.

Old age has many Infirmities, none of which are more prevalent than kidney dis orders. Have you ever noticed how tho old people complain of backache, lamo back, and general llstiesBness7 And there are many other symptoms of which they do not speak, such as bloating of the limbs, painful and Infrequent urination or excess- lveness ot tne urinary aiscnarge. Most people think they are too old to find relief and cure, but this Is not so. No better ev idence than the following, which comes from an Elmlra citizen, who has been cured of a very severe case at 77 years of age. Mr. William Thornton, of 127 West Market street, speaks of his case In this way: "I am 77 years old. I have been afflicted Wltn mat areautui complaint (kidney disease) for over ten years, mnk Ing my old age a burden. I wna so bad as to be forced to carry a belt at all times, and. when my suffering becamo beyond endurance, I would put on the bolt, draw ing It tightly around me and buckle It, thus bringing an extreme pressure over the kidneys; this, undoubtedly, forced the urine out. a function which the kidneys themselves had become too diseased to perform. My condition I put down to a train I received. I began taking Doan's Kidney Pills, I was much surprised, as the ailment was so severe and so long standing, while I had tried many remedies without any relief whatever. The pain I have experienced at times from straining In my efforts to discharge the urine was simply awful. I have done away with the use of my leather belt, and the pain has all gone, and I recommend Doan's Kidney pills to all 1 afflicted ., with kidney and urinary dlsordsra." . .

The withdrawal of 32,350.000 gold from the sub-treasury today, of which $1,350,000 will be for warded to Europe tomorrow, had an unsettling Influence on the stock mar ket The withdrawals of gold gave the reactionists their opportunity and they were not slow to take advantage. Sugar fell from 117 to 113. closing at the lowest figure. Other particularly weak stocks were Chicago Gas, the Grangers, Louisville and Nashville. Chicago Gas declined 1 to 56I,J. and the Grangers to 1 per cent. Missouri Pacific lost a point, selling as low as 36V4. Specula tion at the close was weak, especially for Sugar. Net losses In the railways for the day were to 1 per cent., but the Industrials declined anywhere from H to 3T4 per cent. Canada Southern and Pacific Mall were exceptionally Arm, and rose Hal per cent. Total sales were 302,210 shares.

NEWS flF OUR INDUSTRIES Uappeaiaga of Interest to the Staple Trades and Particularly to the Trade In Iron, Steel aad Anthracite Coal. Senator 'H. D. Heller, who operates the dlellertown blast furnace and stone quarries, has advanced the wages of his employes 10 per cent. It Is now thought that Instead of a foreclosure sale the present financial difficulties of the Erie system will re sult in a reorganization. A coal strike Is what is most feared by the railroad companies at present. A general cessation of business at the mines would paralyze the freight busi ness. The Crum Lynn Iron works, near Chester, are preparing to start up af ter a long and enforced idleness. This will mean employment for about fifty hands. The Inhabitants of Hamilton town ship, Monroe county, are greatly excit ed over prospects To coal. An expert Is leaning lands, and the outlook is said to be very favorable. Prospecting it expected to begin soon. Some of the employes of the Lehigh Valley company in New York Ftato recently received a circular letter signed by Superintendent Esser asking the rtdson, If any, why they do not buy coal of the company's agent The Ileech Creek Railroad company has ordered 1.000 new coal cars,, one half from the Union Car works, in Buffalo, one-quarter from the Buffalo Car works and the other quarter from the Milton Car works, of this state. 'Engine C;0, Oeorge Blank, of Lehigh ton, engineer, made a passenger run on Friday on the Lehigh Valley railroad from Allentown to'Mauch Chunk, twenty-nine miles. In twenty-eight minutes. During the trip Engineer Blank made two stops and five slow-ups. There Is In force on the Lehigh Val ley railroad a novel rule governing flagmen. It Is Intended principally, however, for the benefit of engineers who fall asleep on their locomotives and ito prevent collisions. The rule is that if a btakeman is sent out to flag a train and the latter passps the fl?, the flagman Is to take it for granted that the engineer Is asleep and may throw a stone or stick or in fact any convenient missile into the cab window to arouse the slumbering man at the thrott-le. Another important change has taken place in the official corps of the Penn sylvania Coal company. Announce ment Is made of the resignation of George Johnson, who has been "cent for the company for the past thirty years, with offices In Pi'.tston and Dun more. Mr. Johnson's resignation took effect Thursday, and president Georgi E. Smith stated that E. M. Beyea. of Dunmore. has been placed" in charge of affairs of the Pittston land office of the company. Mr. Beyea is a son of Henry Beyea. of Dunmore, who has been em ployed by the Pennsylvania company for. many years as paymaster. The chief office of the land department will be In Dunmore, but Mr. Smith said that as yet nothing has been decided in re gard to Mr. Johnson's successor as head of the department. Wllkes-Barre Record: From Pittston to Northumberland the bed If the river is lined with coal, ranging from three to eight feet thick, under an average depth of water of about eight feet. This coal Is made up chiefly of the culm washed from the breakers, and con tains all grades known to the market, although consisting mostly of the finer sorts. The wash of the river cleanses It of all dirt and refuse, and when taken out of the rlvrr It makes an ex cellent grade of fuel. A great many people have been engaged In -hoveling It out, and as .Mph as 32 and 31 a d.iy have been made at this employment. Arthur Sijiler, of Tunkhannock, has been observing this matter for some time, and has recently been experi menting on a method of raising this cc-al in places where the water Is too deep to shovel It out profitably by means of centrifugal pumps, and as a result of his experiments a business which 'ho believes will be a profitable one is about starting. Mr. Stiller has formed a partnership with J. F. Broad bent, of Scranton, and the firm has had built a large engine suitable for the purpose of running the pumps and car rying on the btisl'MOFs of raising the coal from the riverbed, and an appara tus is also arranged for screening the coal ai It Is parsed into canal bonits. The plant will bo established near Northumberland, and all sizes of coal will be shipped by the firm from there. The smaller sizes of th'i river coal flna ready market at from 31.50 to 32.50 per ton, and contracts have alrt-ady been made with parties in Harrlsburg e-nd other places for large shipments. The plant will require an Investment of from $1,000 to $2,000. 'Mr. Suuler la quite a genius In looking up unexepected things, and has -already had patented sevei-al devices, some of which he has sold for several' thousands of dollars. Hi' seems to have a good deal of faith in the success nf this lat venture. "rar REVIVO !vV DrcTAnco vitiiitv Made a teDey. VJ"y Well Man .
