FREE HOROSCOPES.
The Tribune Astrologer Will Draw a Brief
Mop of Your Life.
For sometime past inquiries have
been received at The Tribune office for
horoscopes, nncl dates of birth have
been forwarded by young persons who
In some Instances, seem to have taken
the burlesque horoscopes by "AJac-
chus" in a serious light. In order to
amuse our friends, young' and old. The
Tribune will give a free horoscope
drawn by an up-to-date Astrologer to
any and all who will call at the main
office on Washington avenue, and give
date of birth. Parties living out of
town who desire horoscopes may re
ceive same by mail by sending" The
Tribune their address; date of birth, and
a two-cent stamp for return postage.
Much interest of lute has been mani
fested In the study of Astrology, and
many prominent men place great faith
In the ancient science, which has so
often been abused and brought into
disrepute by charlatans. Horoscopes
drawn by The Tribune astrologer,
while not as complete as those pre
pared from the hour and moment of
birth, are still very good outline maps
of your life and contain valuable ad
vice. This offer Is not confined to regular
readers of The Tribune. Any person,
old or young, who will call at The
Tribune office or send stamps for re
turn postage, will receive a free horo
scope, provided, In each case, the date

MRS. RORERJW HYGIENE.
She Addressed a l.srge Audisaeo la tha
First Presbttcrian Church.
The lecture of Mrs. Korer on hygiene
yesterday morning in the lecture room
of the First Presbyterian church was
heard by an audience that completely
filled the apartment. All those present
were very well known and included sev
eral men. The lecture lasted from
about 10 o'clock until noon, and during
Its progress and after she had finished,
Mrs. Horer permitted and answered
manytquestlons.
What was contained In the lecture
was of special Interest In connection
with the preparation of foods for Inva
lids and children and explained how
the diet of well and old persons should
be regulated. Beef, Iron and wine, she
said, was a stimulant and not a nour
ishing mixture, and a thousand pounds
of the fluid did not contain over an
ounce of nourishment. She described
at length Its progress of manufacture.
Of microbes and tho sterilizing pro
cesses In tlie case of milk and water
she remarked on the bacteria necessary
to the health of the human body and
cited the kinds that are disease-breeding.
She urged the use of Pastuerlzed
milk In the cases of cholera infantum
and similar troubles, as the process Is
so regulated as to destroy only the mi
crobes harmful to the system and to
preserve those that are necessary. In
case of Illness special care should be
taken of the original quality of the milk.
It should be received fresh from the
dairy and administered In that condi
tion. Koumyss was recommended as a
splendid nourishment in the most de
bilitating diseases. Its good properties
have been so generally discussed and
are so well known generally that the
drink Is constantly on sale by the glass
or bottle In drug stores, particularly in
the large cities. It Is a fermented milk
liquid.

course of afternoon lectures In Wilkes

Greatest Kvcnt of the Day.
The auction sale at the Japanese Fair,
227 Washington avenue, which began
Tuesday at 2.3i in the afternoon and
7.30 in the evening, was the beginning
of one of the must exceptional auction
sales ever held in Scranton.
Mr. Stern, who has recently returned
from Japan, made the afternoon quite
enjoyable by relating about the wonder
ful art of the Japanese, giving the
names of the different wares and de
scribing the decoration of every article
sold, as well as showing the 'wonderful
skill and ingenuity with which they
pack the goods In rice straw, proving
to the audience how impossible it wan
to repack and transfer the goods after
once removed from the original pack
ages. For that reason the goods were
Bold at auction, absolutely to the high
est bidder, and all who attended the sale
were fully oonvinced It was an abso
lutely honest auction sale, conducted
on such refined principles that It
seemed more like an afternoon at an art
lecture or a "Trip to Japan," than a
conventional auction sale, except for
the fact that the goods were sold at
such astonishingly low prices that sev
eral times Mr. Stern gave the goods
and distributed them among the aud
ience as souvenirs.
It is simply a question of disposing of
the stock, regardless of what It will
bring, and those who are desirous of
decorating their homes with works of
high art will be convinced that by at
tending these sales every afternoon at
2.30 and evening at 7.30 they will enjoy
the opportunity of a lifetime to pur
chase bargains far below cost of impor
tation. As every article must be sold
any child ran buy at these sales. See
ing is bellevelng. Go and judge for
yourselves.

FERBER TO BE APPOINTED
His Name Kill Be Sent. to the Select
Council Tonight.
TEKM EXriKES OX MARCH 22
Mayor Council Has to Name Some One or
the Firs Department Will With
out a tlcad-Uarry Lutz,
Jr. for Patrolman.
: Mayor Connell has named H. F. Fer
ber to succeed himself as chief engineer
of the tire department and will submit
his name to select council for continu
ation, tonight. District Chiefs Joseph
Hall, George It. Suydam, P. Feeney, J.
Bertley, Louis Schwass and L. Myers
have also been renominated and will go
up for confirmation tonight.
The terms of the chief and assistant
chiefs hhould be co-existent with the
fiscal year, beginning April 1, but owing
to irregularity in the time of appoint
ment the present lire department offi
cials will go out of office on March 22.
This makes it incumbent on the re
tiring mayor to make the appointments
at each change of administration.
The dismissal of Patrolman Thomas
Mills and the appointment of Harry
Luta, Jr., of the Thirteenth ward, to
succeed him will also be submitted to
council tonight.
A Democratic, member said yesterday
that no opposition would be offered to
the mayor s appointees.
There Is nothing in the statutes now
In the local ordinances designating
when the chief engineer's term shall
begin or expire. All the law says Is that
he shall serve for one year. Chief
Ferber therefore will be appointed for
a year beginning 'March 22, on which
date his present year's term expires.
He cannot be removed except for cause
until March 22, 1XS7, and unless he re
signs It is possible that no effort will
be mude to disturb him.
It Is an office which has been filled
as a rule, to suit the pleasure of the fire
department and as Chief Ferber is in
all probability the choice of the firemen
for the position it would not be surpris
ing If the Democrats who aspire to suc
ceed him would be compelled to wait a
year.
SERMON AT CATHEDRAL.
Delivered by the Kov. W. V. O'Donacll of
the North End.
Rev. W. P. O'Donnell, of the North
End, preached the sermon at St. Peter's
cathedral last evening. He Is an elo
quent speaker and clothes his thoughts
In language noted for .Its elegance and
simplicity. He makes . frequent use of
figures of speech, that illustrate clearly
and forcefully the subject at hand
His text was "Judge not from appear
ances, but Judge a just judgment," St.
John, 7:xxlv.
Rev. Father O'Donnell's discourse be
gan with a beautiful similitude. He
likened the snares that satan throws
out to lure souls to everlasting death
to the boy with his bird-lime and decoy,
catching birds and caging them. The
boy shuts the bird up In a cage, but does
not neglect It. He gives It food and
drink and fresh air. and does every
thing to make the little creature sing
and be happy. Some men catch birds
and unmercifully kill them for the gain
which they get. These men adopt the
means to catch the birds In like man
ner as the boy does. They throw out
the decoy and entrap the feathered
songsters, some times by placing other
caged birds near the snare.
The free birds are attracted to their
doom often by seeing the apparent
happiness of the birds In the cage. The
devil catches a soul and secures a
strong hold; but he does not persecute
the soul and make It unhappy. Like
the bird In the cage the soul sometimes
receives consideration enough to make
it believe it is happy.
The devil even goes further. He
catches souls and gives them the honors
and pleasures of this world and ad
vances them In vain ways, but all this
is for a purpose; it lures other souls
to ruin that are tempted by the vain
glories and business successes of those
who are sinners openly. There are
many sinful people supplied with ap
parent blessings in order to discourage
those who are currying the cross and
treading the narrow path.
The speaker exhorted his hearers not
to be swayed by this specious glitter
of the world. These are only the temp
tations of the devil to capture souls
and like the bird catcher deals with his
birds, to put them to death. St. Paul
teaches the good Christian to work for
the hereafter, the eternity with God.und
to disregard the corporal advancement
of ourselves. It Is only by prayer and
penance that we can work out our sal
vation. In conclusion the speaker urged that
our time here should not be devoted to
bartering the things of eternal life for
the pleasures and follies of this world,
which after a few short years must
fade away.

IN HONOR OF EMMET.
John Mttchcl Club Celebrates the Anni
versary of tbe Irish Patriot and
Martyr.
Owing to the Inclement weather the
attendance lust night at the Robert
Emmet celebration was quite small as
compared with previous years, but not
withstanding this tho enthusiasm was
bountiful enough to repay the John
Mitchell club for the efforts they put
forward to feelingly commemorate the
day. Senator J. C. Vaughau presided
and announced the various numbers.
The evening's programme was opened
with a rollicking Irish song, "Koger
O'Malley," rendered by E. J. iMdntyre
so acceptably that he was vigorously
encored. He showed his versatility by
responding with u sentimental Scotch
song. Miss Rose Bradley, a very en
tertaining little Miss, recited "The
Shamrock of Erin" and the same ob
ject was the theme of the next song,
in which M. J. Coyne's sweet voice wus
heard to good advantage. For a well
merited encore he responded with an
other Irish song.
ATTORNEY REGAN'S ADDRESS.
Attorney J. D. Regan then delivered
a learned address, appropriate to thn
occasion. Irishmen, he said, have had
to contend against the Orangeman for
years, and they are still their greatest
foes. "We celebrate tonight," he said,
"the memory of one who had his head
cut off by Orangemen. Protestant
Irishmen are not Orangemen. There Is
not a snark of religion In Orangemen.
An Irishman loves his religion with a
profound and la.sting love, but he hates
no other man's religion. He can love a
Protestant patriot with as great a zeal
as he can a Catholic patriot and this
gathering tonight Is a proof of that."
A vocal duett by Misses Rose and
Emma Bradley was next given and was
liberally applauded. Then Miss Mame
Boland recited In u. very excellent man
ner Hon. John E. Barrett's touching
poem, "The Soldier's Monument,"
which earned for her an encore.
Michael Donnegan, who was next In
troduced proved to be a clever and
versatile entertainer. First he gave a
song and an response to repeated en
cores he gave, in turn a dance, a song,
a recitation and another song.
Frank J. Johnson was next Intro
duced. He said in brief: "Wherever
there is an Irishman tonight, be he
Catholic or Protestant, you will find
him honoring the memory of Protest
ant Robert Emmet We take pleasure
In honoring Emmet, because, like
Washington, he fought to free his land
from an alien foe. He gave all he had
for his country. If Washington had
failed ho would no. doubt have been
beheaded as a traitor as Emmet was,
and he would go down to history as an
example of patriotism and nerve in
time of necessity."
Mr. Johnson reviewed the condition of
Ireland and the causes which led to It,
and closed by saying that Irishmen
everywhere should and do resolve that
when the opportunity presents- Itself
Emmet's epitaph shall be written and
the nation for which he died shall once
more be given her station among the
nations of the earth."
THE OTHER FEATURES.
By request Miss Boluxid recited "Ire
land, I Bid You the Top O" the Morn
ing," and was again encored. M. J.
Coyne again appeured and rendered u
solo on the ocarinas then a medley on
the siuive Instrument, then In response
to another encore gave a flute solo, and
when the audience Insisted on more
gave them another song.
The performance concluded with a
double phigogue solo by E. J. Alcln
tyie. CONVENTION AT MOOSIC.
