CUABLE3 TROPF DEAD.
SuJden llcccnso of Ono of Scraitton's
Foremost Men.
The central city was stnrtled and
saddened at tho close of yesterday uf
ternoon when the announcement passed
from mouth to mouth that Poor Direc
tor Charles K. Tropp was dead. His
serious Illness was announced In yes
terday's Tribune, but few believed that
his death was so near at hand.-
It was only on Wednesday last that
Mr. Tropp was taken 111. On that day
he .returned from a business trip to
Pittsburg, complaining of pains in the
heud. About 3 o'clock In the afternoon
he was stricken down with paralysis
and continued to sink rapidly until 4
o'clock yesterday afternoon when a sec
ond stroke attached him with fatal re
sults. Few men In this city were better
known than Charles Tropp and none
were niore generally, respected. His
Ioiik business career and association
with charitable organizations threw
him Into the company of all classes of
people and by his genial upright man
ner he made a friend and admirer of all
he met. Four years ago when a vacan
cy occurred on the poor board and
Judge Archbald was casting about for
a Httlm? man to fill the position digni
fied by the Incumbency of Hon. Lewis
Puprhe and R T. Black, Mr. Tropp was
selected and his appointment was re
ceived with general satisfaction. His
course on the board since has proved
the wisdom of tho choice.
The deceased was born In Wetcler,
Germany, fifty-four years ao and came
to this country with his widowed moth
er at the ase of eleven, years. . Ills natal
name was Birch but he adopted his
uncle's name of Tropp upon belnff In
dentured to him soon-after arriving In
this country.
At an early aire he was associated
with his uncle In the clp;ar manufactur
ing business at Hawiey but came here
when a young1 man and entered the
hotel business. He was married to
Margaret Lohman In 1866. Mrs. Tropp
survives him as do also the following
rhlldrcn: Charles E., Jr., Frederick V.,
Eugene A., Frank L., William It., Au
gusta, Phllllplne, Marguerite and Stella.
Mr. Tropp was treasurer of 8t. Vin
cent de Paul society, an honorary mem
ber of the Turners and a charter mem
ber of the Llederkranz. The funeral
will take place on Monday, but, further
than this arrangements have not been
completed.
MANY PRESENTS GIVEN.
Observance of Christmas at tho Scrnnton
llnsinoss College
Last evening the students of the
Seranton Business College assembled In
their spacious study hall to listen to an
Impromptu musical and literary pro
gramme. .Many of the numbers were
exceedingly well rendered and were
highly appreciated.
At the close of. the programme the
following gifts were presented to me
members of the faculty! To Prof. Buck
a handsome gold-lined sliver cake bas
ket; to Prof. Whitmore a silver carving
set; to Prof. Yoder a sliver shaving set;
to Prof. Cruttenden a silk umbrella; to
Miss Frank a silk umbrella.
The students of Jhe night school pre
sented each member of the faculty with
a handsome Dresden clock. The mem
bers of the faculty presented the man
agers with si substantial dictionary
stand and were In turn presented with
tokens of remembrance.
A marked feature of the occasion was
the cordiality and good fellowship
which existed. The students ' of the
Seranton Business College regard their
teachers as their friends and seem to
realise that they .will receive the great
est good when there Is the greatest har
mony. I .

BACHELORS' HALL OUTLOOK
Its PromotorsVongiiino of Unprecedented
Success-Detailed Mention of Many
Anticipated Formal Social Events.
- A Week of Dancing Parties.
' Whatever recent absence there has
been of social doings the liveliness
promised during the holidays promises
to counterbalance the preceding quiet
ness. Young men and young ladles will
during next week reuch home from
school and college, and, with the long
list of anticipated out-of-town guests,
will furnish ample material for a round
of functions already planned, con
spicuous among which are the Smith
dancing party on the 26th, the assembly
tin the 27th, the Parke darning party
on the SOth, the Bachelors' ball on the
81st, the Seybolt reception January 2
anil the German on the following night.
Amonff all these will be Interwoven
any number of smaller and more Infor
mal gatherings and family parties
which have not 'yet been definitely
planned.
.
Kverything continues to Indicate that
the Hachelors' ball on New Year's eve
will be a more pronounced success than
ever before In point of attendance,
socially financially and. In fact, from
every standpoint. While the advance
sale of tickets is not large It never Is
the sale la larger than ever before for a
corresponding period and the Bachelors'
committee Is going ahead with elabor
ate arrangements which are justified
by the outlook.
The sentiment against engnglng dan
ces In advance, which custom this year
has been tabooed by the request and
example of the Bachelors themselves,
continues to prevail. The majority of
the popular girls and as popular young
men are more than holding their own
against the sclllEhness of a very few
who have been inclined to engage ahead
notwithstanding the desire of the
Bachelors. Fortunately this Inclina
tion has not prevailed to any serious
extent and the few young people who
do antagonize the wishes of the Bach
elors, who are practically the hosts of
the ball, must expect to reap the dis
approval of the patronesses and the
mnrrled element. The more accommo
dating young men and ladies will reap
the commendation duo them.
At the request of some of tho older
men all the boxes, excepting two of the
lower ones which are (o be reserved
for the patronesses, will be sold nt auc
tion to the highest bidder next Friday
afternoon at 4 o'clock In the office of H.
p. Simpson, the Bachelors' president.
It Is unfortunate that the seventeenth
annual assembly In Wilkes-Bnrre will
be Riven on New Year's eve In Corcor
dia hall, the date of the Bachelors' bau
In the Frothlngham. This contlictlon
of dates will necessarily prevent Scran
tonians from attending the Wllkes
Rarre function and will equally affect
the Seranton ball. Tho patronesses of
the Wllkes-Barre event are: Mrs.
Charles 13. Rice, Mrs. Thomas Graeme.
Mis. C. P. Hunt, Mrs. J. Butler Wood
ward, Mrs. William T. Pmedley, Mrs.
Walter Gaston and Mrs. Isaac P. Hand.
The following gentlemen comprise the
committee for 1895: Messrs. John A.
Turner, George B. Illllman, Edmund
N. Carpenter, Samuel C. Chase, and
Frederick Illllman.
