Great Interest la Being Taken in Tomor

A rret inter In tomorrow's eloc

oampa'ljtn has been a quiet one thus
far. ' Only one meeting of a political
rta'ture -having been held. Mr. Bar..!,
candidate for county surveyor, has
many ifrtemls ion . this sldk. Having
airmen from uhe midst of eons of toll,
his sympathies are wholly 'In thrir In
terests. Ws very simplicity and quiet
manhood 'Will attract many votes.
Dr. itionsstrtet, for coroner, will re
ceive the whole Republican vote, and
many others. Hit Is well-known on
th'ls side.
Building to Bo RonMced.
An obstacle which Will for some time
prevent the operation of the electric
motor eit liellevue mine has presented
itself. The building in which the gen
erating engine is ihouae-d has. been con
demned as Insecure, owing to a bad
foundation. During the running of the
eng.lne the structure shakes ominously,
and a collapse, though not l-mmtnnt,
has been possible a't any time. When
the house was buHlt the earth was not
excavated to a firm strata, but the
toii'lldlng was erected on the surface
ground. Saturday the company of
ficials decided to tear down the pres
ent building and erect a more sub
stantial one. This will cause a d-elay
of a few weeks. The present position
of the generating ens'ino houe may
le ohaneed to the fa.n house E.lte. and
en addition ibu!5t to accommodate It.
It Is thought that when tho motor Is
in good working ordtr half of the
mules now In the mine will be taken
out.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
(Under this heading short letters of In
terest will be published when accompa
nied, fur publication, by the writer's
name. The Tribune will not be hold re
sponsible tor opinions here expressed.)
TENHKXCV OF MOni.K PREACHING.
Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The editor of the Rennhllr-an nt
this city delivered himself on the above
snbject In that paper. After speaking of
Paul's preaching he went on. to state:
"But times have changed since Paul
Mi.Mll Vl i VMru ttllif.lman. ,1 . . . 1 , 1. . . . I I
' ' J f...,iw auu minimi
exhortation, and the preachers seem to
have changed with thm. There is less
preaching of a crucified Redeemer, less
reasoning of temperance and- righteous
ness, and as for 'Judgment to come," why
that subject Is pretty effectually tabooed
In most of the fashionable pulpits. Hell
Ore preaching ie altogether out of date."
I do not know where the editor gets his
preaching pr whether he goes to hear any,
but I claim to know from personal obser
vation and an Intimate personal acquaint
ance with most of the preachers of the
city of Scranton, and, Indeed, of the
Lackawanna val'ey, that there never was
a time when "temperance; righteousness"
and "Judgment to come" were more clear
ly and earnestly preached than now. , Ev
ery true minister, as he 4s a lncere and
upright man, will resent such statements
as the above, regarding them ha serious
reflections on tbetr manliness - and In
tegrity. No one will deny but that theo
logical opinions have undergone great
changes, l.'Ue human opinions in outer
departments of thought, but-lhstead of
Sdblinbs.
there being less of "Christ crucified
preached" and less of "temperance, right
eousness and judgment to come" these
great themes are preaohed with more real
force and emphasis than ever before.
Christ, the crossbearer, la made more
real and is presented more aa a living
personal force now than In any- time
previous. Salvation Is represented, not as
a deliverance from a material hell in the
future, but from a hell whose nrei are
burning In the breast of every sinner, even
now, and judgment is not presented as
an event which is to take place in a dis
tant future, but as a process which is go
ing on In every soul now, and is to culmi
nate in eternity. Preaching Is more
strictly ethical now than It ever was, and
preachers are among the foremost men In
the ranks of reform and In every move
ment for the temporal and spiritual wel
fare of society.
Were It not for a preacher, who Is a
type of the moat advanced Christian
thinkers of today, New York city would
be In the grasp of Tammany. It was Dr.
Parkhurst that by his faith, courage and
leadership broke up one of the tyrannical
and corrupt municipal despotisms that
ever cursed a people. Thank God, preach
ers and not time servers, who preach
only to please. D. J. Williams.

PRESIDENT HAXLOX'S TURN.
State League President Doesn't View the
Da so Ball Situation as Does President
Powers of the Eastern League.
President Hanlon, of the State league
of base ball clubs, came to Scranton
Saturday for the purpose of seeing
what he could see relative to the dispo
tlon of the Scranton association's fran
chise and other property which was
to have oeen sold Friday by the sheriff.
The sale was postponed until Monday,
but uurlng Saturday the heavier credi
tors secured another postponement un
til Thursday on the plea that their at
torney, Robert " Murray, had been
called to Pittsburg on legal business.
AITnble and loquacious describes
President Hanlon when asked by a
Tribune reporter to say something for
publication. What Mr. Hanlon said
Is interesting in that he does not take
the same view as did President Pow
ers, of the Eastern league, on certain
questions. Said Mr. Hanlon:
'I did not come to Scranton to bid In
the franchise at Monday's sale. That
would not be a business-like move for
the state league, because men we would
have to sell, hold or throw away our
purchase and put a State league club
In here before we had asked the people
tor tneir approval or such a course.
Sure, if I was at the sale and nobodv
bid, I might permit the thing to he
knocked down to me; I would do this
without Instructions from Mr. Markle
Uhe millionaire for whose money the
Mtate league makes a good outlet) and
then run chances on receiving: his ap
proval, because, you know, I told none
ot my people that I was coming to
Scranton.
"But our best' way to put a State
league club in this city is to do it by
persuasion and argument with the
present creditors who may be the pur
chasers." It was suggested by the reporter that
hresiaent powers, of the Eastern
league, said Scranton Is Eastern league
teruory, ana that a new franchise
would be put here In twenty-four hours
if the State league people walked on the
grass, so to speak. Mr. Hanlon
laughed and said:
"Oh, I don't doubt that Mr. Powers
said it and may be he believed It, but he
was incorrect. The State league had
Scranton once and when Scranton
Jumped Into the Eastern we protested
that Scranton territory was ours. Our
protest didn't amount to anything, so
why can the Eastern league say now
'This Is our territory.' No, territory
does not cut much of a figure. But
my talk is all argument; we have no
real determination to bid at the sale,
fcut shall try to win Scranton Into the
State league by persuasion."
The state league president said he
had no idea who proposed buying the
Eastern franchise or what would be
done with It after Its purchase.
The Tribune stated on Saturday that
the Eastern franchise would remain
In this city; in this statement there was
no implication that the property
would be bid in by persons whose only
object was to have it held here, nor
was such an Implication intended. The
stntement was made upon trustworthy
information.
Mr. Hanlon had a conference with
J. W. Aiken, of Carbondale, In this city
yesterday, in which the future of the
Pioneer City club was discussed. Mr.
Hanlon said that Carbondale will be
In the State league next season. Other
clubs that are sure to be In It are Ha
zloton, Reading, Lancaster and Phila
delphia. ,
If Scranton Joins, Allentown will also
become a member. Mr. Hanlon said
that If eight strong clubs cannot be
secured a six-club league will be con
ducted. BROOKLYN HAS HARPER.

SCRAHTOH'S BEST VICTORY
Defeated Lehigh Reserves by a Score
' of Eighteen to Nothing.
SPORT P00RIY ENCOURAGED
A'Few Reasons Why the Bloyela Toam
Should Be Supported-llas Met
Only One Defeat and That
Waa Pardonable.
Eleven reserve or substitute foot ball
players of Lehigh University received
an overwhelming defeat by the Scran
ton Bicycle Club eleven on the Base
Ball Park gridiron Saturday afternoon.
The score was 18 to nothing. The
weathor was not conducive to a large
attendance, but a large majority of the
400 spectators had Its fill of home su
premacy and took advantage of.many
opportunities to cheer Scranton's
plays.
At no stago of the game were the
collegians dangerous. The day looked
to be Scrantons' after six minutes of
tne first half.when Connery was pushed
over Lehigh's line for a touchdown and
Decker kicked the goal. Soon after
ward Owens ran around the end for 25
yards, the largest gain of the day, and
the ball wns steadily advanced until
Connery made another touchdown and
Decker kicked a difficult gonl. Score,
12 to nothing. Time was called with the
ball on Scranton's 50-yard line.
Lemgh possessed the ball when play
was begun the second half. After Scran
ton received 10-yards for an offside piny
the Lehigh men pulled themselves to
gether and slowly moved the ball to
ward the Scranton goal. Gannon's kick
was blocked but a Lehigh man fell on
the ball. Another kick seni the ball to
Noakes on Scranton's 20-yard line and
it Is forced to near the Lehigh goal,
where the collegians secure It on a
fumble, .
Went Throueh the l.lno.
Allen and Cleveland are sent through
the line and block a kick, Cleveland
falling on the ball Just as time is called.
Decker kicked a good gonl and the
game ended with tho score IS to nothing
In the bicycle men's favor.
Following is the line-up:

1'mplre, Mr. Phillips, Lehigh; referee
Richard Beamish: linesman, Harry Peck,
Lehigh, and Dr. Stein, of 8crnnton.
Scran ton lans who take an Interest In
foot ball, have noticed witih pleasure
the rap'ld progress made by the Bicycle
club's eleven this year. The record so
far for this season Is four games won,
one tie and one lost, and It Is prob
able that ihad the Syracuse game been
played later m the season, it would
have resulted In an altogether dlfferont
score. The team played three hard
games in t'hait week and a majority
of the men were In no fit condition
to play, as was evidenced by the num
ber of players -who were compelled to
leave the field; as Jt was, Syracuse
was unable to score unt'll Oaptaln
Welsh ar.'l Left End Walsh, two of the
hardest workers on the team, had been
obliged to rut ire, owing to painful In
juries. Took a Three Weeks' Rest.
The team realizing that 1t was over
doing Itself, took a three weeks' rest,
and during that time set IVtself to work
perfecting a new etyle of Interference.
The temporary iloss-j of Captain Welsh
necessitated a change In position,
Thayer going to: half back-and Can-
taking Thayer's place at full oacg.
This was a beneficial change as the
team then defeated the strong Shamo
kln eleven, a team which had not
known dtlfeait for two years. Four
days later, Scranton met and for the
second tlme In four years, administered
a crushing defeat to the crack Wyo
ming Seminary team, although for
Scranton a loompartMvely new man
played In place of Thayer, wfho received
a severe sprain In the Shamokln game.
The team has not been rewlv.lng the
support from the ipeople of Swanton,
due such a strong eleven and "nirong
eleven," Is mentioned advisedly, aa the
soven men constituting the Scranton
line, are aa strong and active as well
be found on amy foot ball team In the
country outside the large colleges.
There Is not a weak place on the line,
and this was shown In the Elmlra
game, where Elmlra had a first down
six Inches from tlhe iScranton goal, and
though they sent . 180-pound man di
rectly at the center three times, they
could not score.
But gotnig back to the original theme:
The team Is not enjoying the patron
age It should, considering the fact that
it Is slowly 'but surely re-estnlbllshlng
tlhe city's reputation as a Wlnnlne ball
town, A Shamokln man said during
the Shamokln game, "I never picked
up a paper without seeing Scranton
lost again,' until your foot ball team
began Its career."
Ilve a Oeen Record Thus Far.
The Scra.nton Bicycle eleven started
the season With the determlratlon not
to loose a game, and so far would have
had a clpar record, but for that un
lucky Syracuse game. Thfls game came
too soon aifter the Elmlra game, and no
one realises that better than Manager
Gilmore. No team can play two hard
g'amea In three days, and do Itself credit,
arid ruoh was fhe case with Scranton.
floran'ton Will not support a losing
team, nor does It take kindly to
a winning fool ball team. When the
team wins, the puMic. and, sometllmes,
the press, say H was due to beef and
not akHl. Elmlra and Syracu.fe out
weighed the Scranton team, while Sha
mokln and Seminary to within ten
to twenty pounds as heavy as our sup
porters of the orange awl black. A
Cornell man, who saw. the Wy,omlng
Scranton game, said that he never wit-

very effective work In th last two
games. In the Shamoktn game Posner
and Thayer repeatedly made five and
ten yards through tackle and end,
while at Kingston one iweek ago. Gel
bert and Carr plunged through the
Seminary line for large gains. Decker
and Owens ran around the ends like
veterans, helped along considerably by
the very sjble interference of Quarter
Back Walsh. Cleveland. Conner'.
Zang, Allen and Cogglns are considered
five men who can not be excelled for
Interferers and defensive work.
The next .Important game will be
with Colgate university, at tlhe Base
Ball park, on Nov. 13, and in this game
Scranton will use its strongest team,
and a new flying Interference, some
thing never seen on the home grounds.
IT WAS A COLD DAY.
Saturday's ' Trotting Ksees Did Not
Greatly Aid tho Throop Chureh.
Saturday's trotting and pacing races
announced to take place at the Driv
ing park Saturday for the benefit of a
Throop church were not a pronounced
success from either a financial or sport
ing standpoint. The cold and dismal
weather had much to do with It. An
carl" season snowstorm whirled across
the park before the racing ended.
..The free-for-all event was scratched
and only two horses contested In one
heat of the 2.35 class, Duke, driven by
L. T. Payne, going the mile In 2.29',4 and
beating Fred Godfrey's Tripp C. by sev
eral lengths. Fred Cook's Bertha C.
captured three straight heats in the
2.20 race In 2.204. 2 28 and 2.30. Walter,
driven by J. L. Crawford, was second
In the first two heats and was with
drawn. Maud L., Dr. Porteus' mare,
was the only other entry.

been defeated by the Crescents.

Crescents, succeeded In making a
touchdown, Duggan kicked a diffi
cult goal. Score at the end of the
game, Crescents, 6; Minooka, 4.
Thcv Lowered the lieaord'.
Louisville, Ky Nov. 3. S. B. Cox, of
