A very practical and up-to-date kind
of religious work is being planned among
a number of Young Men's Christian as
sociation members peculiarly titled for
the work in question. The Idea Is a
novel one, ami will be put forward by
the workers' training class under the
direction of tleneral Secretury Many. It
is not simply the addition of another
Hlble class course' to the work already
laid out, but is u sort of a lay theologi
cal seminary, where in simple element
ary form 'the evidences or Christianity
ure put before young workers and they
are taught how to handle the word of
God In personal work.
The primary Idea of the workers Is
not so much the preparation for public
effort ns It is lor skillful personal train
ing. The training class which recently
finished a preparatory course will to
morrow be given a written examination
and those whose work comes up to 75
tier cent, will be eligible to membership
hi the workers' league, which will be or
ganized (luring: the coming week. This
league will hold weekly meetings, when
the members will make written reports
according to the following form:

TOOK DESPERATE III A MLS.
Foolhardy Aot of a Friend of the Pric-
bnrg Small Pox Patient.
The difficulty of watehlnff Joseph
Fllarski. the Prlieburg smallpox pa
tient. wa demonstrated yesterday.
Owing to the Ignorance of the people
who surround him they hnve to be
watched very closely for as soon as
vigilance id relaxed they are sure to do
something that has a tendency to
kpread the terrible disease broadcast.
It Is not probable that they do this
w ilfully, but because of their Ignorance
of the dun g;er they subject themselves
und others to.
Yesterday morning while the man
who was) on guard at the house occu
pied by FHarski, relaxed his vlgixlance
for a moment a man approached the
house. Another instantly emerged from
the bulkiliifr and the two held a con
versation for a few minutes. Then some
people who were watching the men
closely saw the man who come out of
the house pass something to the other,
who Immediately started away.
He was stopped soon after by the
olllcer but denied that he had received
anything;. He was taken before Jus
tice of the Peace' Logan, who admon
ished him to tell the truth. Awed by
the majesty of the law he admitted that
while standing in front of the house in
which the smallpox patient is quar
antined he received a book. He pro
duced it und It proved to be a pass
book Issued to the smallpox patient by
a building- and loan association.
In the book was a five-dollar bill,
placed there by Fllarski with which the
man before the justice was to pay the
premium on the stock held by Fllarski.
The book and money were constlcated
for the present, and the foolhardy
friend warned not to again loiter
around the Infected house or he would
be severely punished.

wuy of morning meal he Ukes a cup
of coffee or tea-nothing else, not even
a roll or morsel iif bread. He prac
tices usually for five or six hours each
day on a piano which he has sent to his
room In the hotel as soon as he arrives
in a city.
When he has an afternoon concert lie
does not practice at all, however, nnd
If the concei t is an evening one he de
votes only two to three hours to exer
cising on the keyboard. In order to
strengthen his lingers he plays only
llve-llng-er exercises. Like a prize fighter
who is in training this musical athlete
devotes himself to a systematic course
of gymnastics for strengthening all of
the physical powers which are culled
Into play by his performances at the
piano. Those long, slender, "piano"
fingers are put tin ouch their paces un
til they acquire strength, flexibility,
sglllty and staying power. His mug
niticent technique Is not maintained
without this constant fostering and
lubricating; of its springs. This little
band of five faithful servants which
each hand commands Is in tenure to a
wrist like steel. But his arms also have
to be strengthened. For this purpose
he employs an apparatus which ho de
signed and had made himself. What
this Is he knows, and nobody else.

Two weeks from tomorrow, on Sun
duy, March 22, Kev. M. J. Hoban, the
recently uppotnted assistant bishop of
Scranton diocese, will be consecruted
nt St. Peter's cuthedrul In this city, and

lit. Kev. Bishop o'llarn. Kev. Father
Hoban and Kev. .1. J. B. Feeley urrlved
In Scranton at 8..10 on the Delaware,
Lackawanna and 'Western lust even
ing from Philadelphia. They went
there Wednesday to confer with Arch
bishop Kyan with reference to the con
secration, and the date above given waa
selected on which It would occur.
The bishop and Kev. Father Feeley
were driven to the episcopal residence
on Wyoming avenue. Kev. Father Ho
ban did not stay In the city, but went
to Ashley on the 9.15 Delaware and
Hudson train. Theru are many details
in connection with the ceremony which
will not be decided upon for a few days.
The elaborateness of the consecration
will surpass anything that has taken
place in church annals in this city.
Never before has there been an event
of so real Importance In the Catholic
church of this diocese. It was the wish
of Kev. Father Hoban to have lit. Kev.
Bishop O' Httra officiate as the conse
crator, but the bishop would rather let
the honor fall to Cardinal Satolll, be
cause his eminence was Kev. Father
Hoban's preceptor In the Propaganda
college at Rome.
It appears that Cardinal Ratolll could
not come; neither could Cardinal Gib
bons, and It wus their wish, it la under
stood, that Archbishop Kyan Fhould of
ficiate. Kt. Kev. Bishop Horstinun.
who will assist, is a close personal
friend of Rt. Kev. Bishop O'Hara. '
The ceremony will occur with a pon
tifical mass at 10.30 in the morning.
