THE SPECULATOR.
Seabrooke and Company Seen to Good
Advantage In That comedy.
Thomas Q. Seabrooke and company
played a return engagement at the
Academy of Music last night, present
ing George H. Broadhurst's comedy in
three acts, "The Speculator," which the
company produced on its former ap
pearance in Scranton this season. Then
the piece was new to the company and
did not move as smoothly as it did last
night.
Heabrooke's reputation was made In
light opera and he seems somewhat out
of place in comedy, but he nevertheless
does good work as John Fullerton, a
Chicago board of trade speculator. Oth
er members of the company who did
very clever work were Sydney Booth,
Atkins Lawrence, Prince Lloyd, Ray
Fairchild. Ethel Wlnthrop, Blanche
Moulton, Jeannette Lowrle and Marion

The men to the number of nenrly one

the result that the matter was amic
ably adjusted and the men yesterday
returned to work.

ROAST FOR THE COMPANY
1
Traction Company Is Scored by the
Board of Trade.
F01R DISTINCT COMPLAINTS
Insufficient Cars. Flat Wheels, Incon
venient Koutesand Urnnkta Passen
gers Ara Alleged Mr. Diekson
Said Thlags-Otber Baslntss.
A regular monthly meeting of the
board of trade was held last night.
Aside from a report of the public safety
committee criticising the Scranton
Traction company, no matters of par
ticular local interest were acted upon,
although a volume of general business
kept the meeting in session an hour.
Owing to the storm the attendance was
not lanre. Following Is the, report of
the public safety committee:
Your committee on public safety, to
whom wa referred the several matters
pertaining to the electric street car system
of this city, beg to report as follows, to
wit.: l.'pon Investigation we lind that
there are several objections raised to the
present system, but your committee
deemed It wise to mention but four of
them at this time, as follows:
First, an insufficient number of cars on
all lines between the hours of 6 and V
In the morning, and 4 and 7 In the even
ing. Second, the large number of cars In use
wDh flat wheels, which are a serious
mnc to .weak and delicate women. -
Thtrd. the) landing of passengers. on the
GeettilKldM; People's and Providenoellnes
lniaixjart of the city remote from offices,
stores, business places and schools.
Fourth, the allowing of drunken per
sons on the cars, and permitting inde
cent language thereon.
We would therefore most respectfully
suggest to the officials of the company
the following changes, which your com
mittee believe If adopted will be to tho
best Interests of the company and Insure
comfort and safety to its many patrons:
SOME CHANGES RECOMMENDED.
First, an Increase In the number of cars,
on all lines, between the hours of 6 and
a. m. and 4 and 7 p. m.
Second, replace all flat wheels under
the several cars with perfect ones.
' Third, instead of running Green Rldga
nnd Providence cars down Mulberry and
Kniuce streets to Franklin, run them up
Mulberry to Wyoming, down Wyoming
to Spruce, and down Spruce to Franklin
and Lackawanna. As there Is a double
track on all of these streets, the change
could be made with very little expense
to the company, and would certainly be a
great accommodation to the residents of
the North End.
Fourth, the making and strict enforce
ment of ft rule not tinder any circiim
Ktancea to allow a drunken person on a
car. The enactment of such a rule would
entirely do away with the cause for com
plaint relative to the use of indecent
lainruage on the cars.
We would -therefore respectfully call the
attention of the officials of the company
to the foregoing, and sincerely bellevo
that If the changes suggested are adopt
ed they will not only promote their own
Intercuts, but will receive the hearty ap.
proval of their many patrons.
Respectfully submitted,
R. W. Luce, Chairman.
A. W. Dickson accompanied his mo
tion to adopt the report by snyhiir it was
moderate rather than severe and that
the company was bound to comply with
the recommendations. In case the re
port, if adopted, was not heeded he urged
that the board do "something more
than growl" that it should continue
demanding; Improvements to a bad sys
tem. Mr. Dickson was especially ve
hement in denouncing the company for
permitting; "maudlin, sickening:, reeling,
disgusting-, drunken men" on the cars,
and he was equally as ardent In refer
ring to the profanity of Home of the
employes.
Mr. Dickson's motion that the report
lie approved und that the secretary
forward) a copy to the proper official of
the company was unanimously carried.
MR. RICHMOND'S LETTER.
In connection with the report was
reud a communication from W. II.
liichmond addressed to the committee
but which was received too late for
c onsideration by that body. The letter
was a general criticism of the company
and city officials for the non-compllunce
with a olty ordinance requiring all "T"
street ralla to be paralleled by planking.
The letter and Its subject matter were
referred to the committee for considera
tion. The report of the manufacturers com
mittee waa indefinite. In that it did not
reveal the nature of several Important
mat tern now before it. The report was
as folio wn:
Your -manufacturers' committee beg to
report that we are in correspondence with
several good concerns that have expresse I
a desire to locate hero. We have nothing
rtellnlte. however, to report regarding
them nt this time. A great many applica
tions are being received from nil parts
of the country, more especially from tho
east, and west, which would seem to In
dicate that our city Is becoming better
known and its advantages appreciated.
Luther Keller, Chairman.
It wast explained that for obvious rea
sons no detailed mention could be made
of the matters now pending before the
commltte.
David Pickens, chairman of the com
mittee on postal affairs, rept.rted the
approval of the report of the 1-cent let
ter postaKe committee of the nationul
board of trade. The national commit
tee Is working to secure the passage of
the l.oud bill, H. R. KM, which provides
for letter-postage at I-cent per half
ounce, and that regular publications Is
nued as often as four times per year
shall be charged at second-class mall
rates Instead of third and fourth class
rates, which are by the pound.
TO KQITALIZE THE RATE.
President May stated that the Dunn
Mercantile Agency mail bill amounted
last year to $50,000, of which $37,000 was
profit to the government, but that the
postage expense of about 1300.000 of a
New York city novel publishing con
cern showed a loss of about S125.000 to
the government. The Loud bill, he
said, was drafted to equalize a bad and
unfair rate system. The committee's
report was adopted.
The publication committee's report
disapproved the proposition of the
Lackawanna Institute of History and
Science that the board co-operate with
the institute In the latter's present plan
to publish a pamphlet of early Scranton
and an 1840 map of the city.
I'nanimous affirmative action was
taken on the finance committee's
recommendation that seven members be
expelled for non-payment of dues. The
secretary was Instructed to give the ac
counts to the board's attorney for col
lection. For the special committee appointed
to ask the estimates committee of coun
cils to Include compensation for a Are
marshal In the 1896 appropriation ordin
ance. President May reported that the
estimates committee would Individually
endeavor to provide by ordinance that
the marshal's duties should be attached
to the office of the chief of police or the
chief of the fire department. The spe
cial committee was continued with in
structions to secure a realisation of the
estimate) committee's proposition.
MEM UKIISHIP APPLICATIONS.
The membership applications of F. I
Peck arid f. If. Zehnder were received,
and, by rule, laid over for a month.
A letter was read from W. H. Per
kins, late of the Dickson Manufacturing
company, tendering his resignation as
a member and trustee of the board. Mr.
Dickson spoke of Mr. Perkins' long and
faithful service, covering a period of
twenty years, as a member and trustee
and moved that action on the reslgna-'
tlon be deferred until the secretary
could communicate with Mr. Perkins
and ask him to withdraw his resigna
tion. The motion was adopted. The
resignation of F. C. Whltmore, removed
from the city, was adopted.
A balance of $250 due Cassler's Maga
cine on a bill of $1,000 for a reading ad
vertisement of Hcranton's manufactur
ing advantages was ordered paid from
the board's general funds. It had been
Intended to raise the amount by sub
scription as was the first $7G0. .
ART CONCERT LAST NIGHT.
Ma Programme Randerel at tho Y. M. C
A. Hall.
It Is) not often thut a concert Is given
in whli-h. the mandolin Is the permler
instrument, but such was the case last
evening- at the Young Men's Christian
association, hall, where Valentine Abt,
the celebruted mandolin virtuoso, as
sisted by the Philharmonic String quar
tette, Oeorge Carr, banjoist, and Alfred
Wooler, tenor, delightfully entertained
an audience that about half filled the
hall.
Abt waa down on the programme for
four numbers, but was obliged to re
spond to so many encores that he- ap
peared double that number of times.
While playing he is In a standing po
sition, which does not detract at all
from his grace and ease of movement,
but enhances these very desirable qual
ities. He fingers the strings of his fa
vorite instrument with the same confi
dence that characterises an author's
recitation of his own works, and the
technique required In the playing of
masterpieces seems to call for no sre
clal effort on his part. A "Grand, Valse
Brilliant," a composition of his own
was his first number, and that alone
was sufficient to show to his audience
capabilities of the player and the in
strument. An "Andante op. 64. Concerto," by
Mendelssohn, "Impromptu," by Pag
anlnnl. and a "Flower Song," were the
remaining numbers on the programme,
which he gave. The feature of the
banjo performance was the rendition
of the ever favorite Holmes "Plcan-
lnny" march, played by Geotge.) Carr
and Miss Gertrude Saxe, ban joists, ac
companied on" the nluno fcv Miss Lillian
C. H. Harumett- The String quartette
composed of A. 11 Morse, iflrst man
dolin; P. O. Schnppett, second mando
lin; R. W. Neubauer, mandolin, and
John A. Foote, guitar, opened the en
tertainment with E. Mario Cellls' "Pen
slere Frigacl," and concluded with a
"Valse Romantlque, another of Abt's
compositions.
Alfred Woolen's tenor voice was
heard to good effect in two songs, the
first entitled "Dreams," and' the other
a "Cradle Song," by Loesch. Richard
F. Lindsay was the accompanist. '
RITIIYEX'S LECTIBES.
Sesured a Hearing In Bear'a Hall on the
West SI do.
The ex-prlest. Ruthven, succeeded In
giving two lectures in Beer's hall, on
the West Side, yesterday, one In the
afternoon for ladies only, and one in
the (evening for ladles and gentlemen.
The hall was crowded at both lectures,
and In the evening there waa a big
crowd outside the hall as well as within.
Nothing-, however, was done In the way
of nn outbreak.
Chief Hiinpson expected trouble, and
was prepared to quell any disturbance.
The live regular men on the West Side
force were dispatched under Lieutenant
Williams to patrol the hall and the
Btreet in front. Captain Edwards, with
ten men from the day and central city
forces were held In reserve In the West
Side station house. About the time the
lecture was over these latter otilcers
strunR- themselves out along Main ave
nue between Lafayette und Jackson
streets, the route over which the lec
turer had to travel to reach the car.
As Ruthven came down the street he
had a body guard of about fifteen of his
sympathizers and sixteen policemen.
About 400 men and boys, principally
the latter, surrounded this group and
accompanied It to the corner of Juck
son street, where the curious crowd
formed in a circle about the none too
comfortable lecturer, and enjoyed a
good look at him during the live min
utes that he was compelled to wait for
u car. When the first car came along
Ruthven and his retainers and four or
five policemen boarded It and were car
ried away without a hoot or a hiss or
anything: of the kind being heard. It
was no doubt the most peaceable lec
ture nlRht that Ruthven has ever ex
perienced. Of the lectures themselves. It must
be confessed that they were a great
success. If satisfying the taste of nn
audience Is to be taken as a criterion.
The women. In the afternoon, listened
with evident pleasure to what he had to
say, and In the evening there wasn't
over half a dozen men In the hall who
illd not applaud the arguments and
conclusions, which, It must be admit
ted, were cleverly and entertainingly
connected together by Ruthven.
WILL STAY SOME TIME.
He announced that he had the offer
of a couple of churches and hulls and
would probably be hero all next sum
mer. If lie hud not been denied the
privilege of speaking In the armory, he
said, h would have been gone from here
long ugo. As It Is, he intends to stay
here and suve this "Rome-ruled city."
He said that Rome hud made rnuny
mistakes of lute, but one of its great
est was barring him out of the armory,
all of which he said without a blush.
At the conclusion of the lecture he In
vited all present to Join the great army
of American Protective association
statesmen who are saving this country.
"You may think you have no great
number of A. P. A.'s among you, hut
you do not know. Who they are I will
not tell you. Sufficient to say that I am
one, and If you want to Join, give me
your name. Then you will hear some
thing about the order. If we nnd you
are the right kind of a mRn we will tell
you more."
Ruthven evidently has a poor opinion
of the mathematical ability of his
friends, for he himself attended to the
taking in of the money and making the
change at the door until he went on
the platform, which was when the hall
was filled and but few more were ex
pected. VARIETY SHOW AT DAVIS.

What Scientific Research Has
t it . . M ,
Accomplished.
Proved by Success Where AH Else
Has Failed.
There Is one true specific for diseases
arising from a debilitated nervous sys
tem, and that is the Paine's celery
compound so generally prescribed by
physicians. It Is the most remarkable
remedy that the sclentlnc research of
this country has produced. Prof. Ed
ward E. Phelps. M.
D.. LL. D.. of Dart
mouth college, first
prescribed what is
now known the
world over as
Palne's celery com
pound, a positive
cure for dyspepsia,
bllllousnesa, liver
complaint, neural
gia, rheumatism,
and kidney trou
bles. For the latter
Paine's celery com
pound has succeeded again and again
where everything else has failed.
Sufferers from neuralgia, neuralgic
headaches and rheumatism should stop
short their morphine, quinine and such
pain-killing drugs. No cure can be
hoped for from these temporizers.
There Is one way of getting rid forever
of the causes of all this suffering; that
is by taking Palne's celery compound.
In this great modern remedy the real
means to health is attended to; sleep
Is made Bound and refreshing, the ap
petite Improves and the nerves stop
complaining, because they get the nu
triment that nature requires. This Is
the fundamental, rational way that
Palne's celery compound takes to be
aide to cope successfully with diseases
of the liver, kidneys and stomach, anil
to guarantee a complete return of
sound sleep, good digestion and a quiet,
well reguluted nervous system.

HIS ANNUAL VISIT.
Bishop O'llara Will Today Celebrate Mas
la Nt. Patrick's Church. Philadelphia.
Rt. Rev. Bishop O'Hara will today
celebrate high mass at St. Patrick'
church, Philadelphia, or which he wu
pastor before being tdevated to the
bishopric. It has been his custom ever
since his consecration to revisit hi
old parishioners on the anniversary of
the patron saint of the church.
This year he hesitated to go because
of his being busily engaged In the ar
rangements for Father Hoban'a conse
cration, but he invitation from his old
parish was so strong that he waa Anal
ly persuaded and yesterday left In com
pany with Rev. J. J. U. Feeley, to make
this annual visit. He will preach the
sermon in connection with singing the
mass.
It la said that the church is not large
enough to hold the congregation on
these occasions.
