The next organization was scranton

Clgarmaktrs' union was next In line.
On every breast was worn the blue

The Forest band was the nrst musical
organization in line and It brought up
ahead of the following unions of the

outs advertising this or that business
or concern.
The line of march continued from
Washington avenue to Mulberry street.
down to Franklin avenue, to LAcka

Madison, to 'Laurel 'HIU park. Not all
of the societies In line marched to ttie
park, more than half of the ranks fall
ing out at Madison avenue and Linden
street, where the street cars were
boarded.
At the park the visitors enjoyed
themselves roaming about at will, ob
serving the beautiful surroundings. In
the pavilion dancing was pursued to the
music of the piano at lirst and later the
Lawrence orchestra. Between the
dances a corps of young urchins that
some wind blew into the park amused
themselves and all who saw them by
some catching the others by the bare
feet and hauling them along the glazed
floor.
At 4 o'clock A. J. Atkinson mounted
the platform of the pavilion and drew

Mr. Edgar spoke for less than a half
hour, but he was eloquent and kept nis
hearers' attention closely by his well
chosen ideas. Jle said that In this age
men are organizing and influencing
legislation aa a settlement of the' labor
question and other questions that affect
public Interest, rather than having re
course to the more forcible way that
was the ruling passion m past ages. In
olden times the people were divided into
the masses and the classes, but fortu
nately this era has departed, and one of
enlightenment has superseded It.
The speaker wag roundly applauded.
Owing to a misunderstanding there
were no other speakers. The crowds
left the pavilion and scattered about
the grounds again. The celebration was
a successful and creditable one In every
particular. -

Th Well-know Comedlsa Scores a Hit
at the Academy of Mnale.
Singing Comedian Andrew Mack
dawned upon the theatrical Armament
like a bright star on the milky way,
as he made his bow before a large au
dience at the Academy of Music last
evening In 'ttlylea Aroon." There Is
no quertlon that the performance of
this beautiful Irish play, as given by
iMr. Mack and company, was one of the
greatest successes known In the his
tory of drama In rVranton. Whatever
doubts there may have been as to An
drew Mack's ability to sustain In a
new role his reputation as a comedian
and sweet singer were dispelled en
tirely last evening. From his first ap
pearance on the stage until the fall of
curtain upon the last act the genial
star hold the audience by the subtle
magnetism that Is essential to highest
attainments In the histrionic art.
Mr. Mack is happy In the possession
of this Inherent talent to a marked de
gree and moved the immense audience
from humor to pathos with an ease
that seemed almost magical. The
musical features of the entertainment
were pleasing throughout. Mr. Mack
possesses a high tenor voice nf mar
velous sweetness, and he rendered the
various numbers of his own composi
tion which were Introduced In the play
In an Inimitable manner, holding the
listeners breathless at times by his
artistic ' shading of the diminuendo
passages.
It might be here stated that Mr.
Mack's compositions are of a much
higher grade, musically than the aver
age song Introduced in comedy drama,
end are tuneful and catchy without be
ing trashy. "An Irish Lad's Wooing;
which was rendered at the close of the
second act with a chorus accompanl
ment, was one of the most pleasing
numbers ever heard on the Academy
stage, and the effect was doubtless
hoiirhteniHl bv the artistic stage set
tines, which represented a woodland
niiint it enrlv dawn. Mr. Mack's por
trayal of the Jovial Irish lad, "Mylcs
Aroon," was a nnisnea periornranvc
throughout and -Indicated careful study
and thorough comprehension of the
character. . , .
iMr. Alack was also fortunate In be
ing surrounded by an excellent com
nany. neurly every member meriting
esiteclal mention. 'Miss Kittle Coleman,
an accomplished soubrctte, gave a
charming Interpretation of the part of
Maggie Farrell and came In for a share
of the honors of the evening. Mr. Og
den Stevens, In the heavy role of
Thurston, aave a finished ren
dition of a difficult character and con
tributed largely to the success ot tne
entertainment. James Vincent anu w.
J. Mason gave amusing character
sketches as Mike Carney and Pat
Phelan and kept the audience in
lauchter when "doing their turn.1
A Dleaslng bit of character acting
was also given by Charles R. Webster,
who aDDeared as .Mother Bett, a for
tune teller. As Lady Glover Miss Lida
MaMlllan gave a painstaking renai
tlon, and IMillle Sackett, May .Melville
and Alice Smith were also excellent in
the characters assumed.
The audience was enthusiastic and
applause was frequent. During the
evening Mr. Mack was presented with
several very handsome floral offerings
from admiring friends In the city. Con
sldered from every standpoint the
presentation of 'lMyles Aroon" was a
success, and Mr. iMack and company
are to be congratulated upon the aus
picious opening of the snason.
At the close of the performance last
evening the members of the company
were grouped about the stage and the
Standard artist secured a flash light
photograph of the troupe, which will
be reproduced In the next Issue of that
paper.
LAST DAYS OF POMPEII.
Speetael Produced la aa F.xeslUat Man
nr at Laurel Hill Park.
At Laurel Hill park last night a two
weeks' engagement of Pain's "Last
Days of Pompeii" opened before a large
audience notwithstanding the chilly
weather. The spectacle la produced on
a brilliant scale, 350 persons being em
ployed. About 300 are residents of this
city and were drilled here for the work,
The lines of 'Lord'Lyt-ton's novel. "The
Last Days of -Pompeii," are closely fol
lowed In the libretto of tne spectacle,
and the sneaking parts are assigned to
very competent actors. The climax of
the spectacle is the eruption of Vesu
vius, which spreads consternation
among the easy-going, pleasure-loving
people ot Pompeii and destroys their
beautiful city.
In connection with the spectacle a
number of high class specialties were
Introduced. Among those who enter
tained were La (Petite Evelyn, a won
derful contortionist; -Harry La Rose,
who did marvelous work with the
globe; the Martlnes did a phenomenal
turn on the trapeze. Laura Martlne
was very clever on the high wire, and
Harry La Rose did a great bit ot work
on a spiral plane.
The spectacle concluded with a mag
nificent display ot fireworks. Among
the set pieces was a portrait of Presi
dent Atkinson, of the Central Labor
union, In Are.
AN INJUNCTION OBTAINED.

acter was obtained yesterday by Con

German citizens of Scranton and
their wives, sons and daughters yester
day at Central Pork celebrated In an
elaborate manner the twenty-fourth
anniversary of the capture of Sedan,
that decisive and never-to-be forgot
ten victory of the Franco-Prussian war
at which 80,000 French troops and th
Emperor Napoleon fell Into the hand
of the victorious Germans. This cele

scale In Germany yesterday. The date
of the battle of Sedan was Sept t. 1871.
There was a monster celebration at
Berlin, In which the emperor and em
press particlated. The emperor him

the Senior. The whole ot Berlin was
a blaze of light and color. -A company
ot 31,000 school children participated
In the day parade, and thousands of
troops took part In the military man
euvers. The actuating spirit of the Germans
In the celebration of the notable event
has not even a tinge of prejudice
toward the French people nor even the
slightest desire to gloat over th great
victory. Their rejoicing la merely an
evidence of German-American patriot
ism In memory of the turning point of
the fortunes of war which assured the
unification! of the German empire.
The anniversary means the same to
the Germans, or they look upon It In
the same light the American people re

sion of the Greek Catholic church at
Old Forge was developed yesterday,
when 'Kev. Valentine Bulogh. the ac
credited pastor of the church, began an
action In slander to recover $5,000 dam
ages from Kast Rusin for defamation
of character.
The defendant Is a merchant at Old
Forge, and he la charged In the bill ot
complaint with having said that Fa
ther Balogh ran away from the old
country and deserted his wife and
family. He also said that he ran away
without a passport and declared that
he was no priest.
These statements, It Is alleged, were
known to be untrue when uttered by
Rusln, and that he proclaimed them
for the purpose of Injuring Father 'Bu
logh. Rusln belongs to the faction of the
congregation that is opposed to the
pastor, and, in fact, Is said to be the
leader of it. They are now in posses
sion of the church and have changed
the locks and will not allow Father
Balogh or any of his friends to enter.
About a month ago the priest direct
ed one of his parlsnoners to go Into the
church on Sunday morning and ring
the bell to call his people to mass. No
sooner had the bell ringer began his
work than he was set upon by three
members of the other faction and bad
ly beaten, his blood covering the wall
and floor.
Before mass can be again celebrated
in the church. Father iBulogh says it
must be rededlcated, but Rusln re
fuses to allow that to be done If the
present pastor is to have anything to
do with it.
Father Balogh Is a native of Hun
gary, and was ordained a pries'! In 1864
In the diocese of Munkacs in that coun
try. iHe came to America In 1S94.
