MISS CLARK'S REPOkT.
A. D. Holland rend the report of Miss
Katharine Hall Clark, who conducts
the training school for kindergarteners
and who also exercises n general super
vision over all of the kindergartens of
the association. Miss Clark has occu
pied this position since last September,
but will return to her home In New
Knglntnl at the close of the term's work,
having tendered her resignation to the
association. After reviewing the work
done during the year, Miss i'l.irk's re
port closed as follows:
"I cannot suflleiently express my re
gret ut severing my ofllcial relations
with the Scrnnton Free Kindergarten
association. The work to ine has been
front the first, fraught with the great
est possibilities, and the spirit that ev
erywhere has been brought to develop
the charitable purpose of the organiza
tion has been a constant help and In
spiration to me. in tendering my
resignation I did so with the feeling
that to me the severance would be a
personal loss, but with the profoiind
est conviction that other duties called
stronger. I leave my duties here with
the lirmost faith in the strength of the
association to-develop the great work
It has undertaken, knowing as 1 do Its
executive power and wisdom.
"The results cannot be measured by
statistics. The vindication of the fu
ture alone can give any Just estimate
of the limitless good wo hope Js being
done day by day. Therefore 1 feel no
nnxiety for the work in Scranton.
"To all who are ho earnestly engaged
in It. the members of th association,
the teachers and the students In the
training class I leave un affectionate
'God be with you.' "

FCNERAlTaF JOHN FADDEN.
A Wall-Known :ition of oi pliant Laid
.at Kcst.
The funeral of the late John Fadden.
of Olyphant, took place yesterday
morning from the residence of Ills
daughter. Mrs. Dennis Lawler, of that
place. Long before the remains of the
deceased were removed from the house
hundreds who hud known and respect
ed him In life had assembled to look
upon him for the last time and to pay
fitting honor to him In death.
At 10 o'clock the remains were taken
to' St. Patrick's church, where a high
mnss of requiem was sung by ltev. P.
K. Lavelle, of Plttston. a nephew of tht
deceased. The benediction was pro
nounced by Kev. P. J. Murphy, pastor
of St. Patrick's church, olyphant.
After the. benediction Father Mur
phy delivered, an edifying and Impres
sive eulogy. After speaking of the
dlseontent that Is ever with us on our
Journey through life and the constant
desire of the sotil ta meet IJs creator,
he made fitting reference to the long
and honorable life of the deceased, and
paid tribute to his worth as a Christian
and a man. He was tlrra in his faith,
devoted to his family, and. In humble
way. he tried to follow the narrow path
that leads to salvation. There was a
lesson In his life that might well be
followed by those who desire to live an
upright life and fulfil the purposes for
which we were created.
The bOdy was interred In Dunmore
Catholic cemetery. The pall-bearers
wre-Andrew C. Farrell, William Gib
bons. Peter Foley. Martin Cannon and
Ijiwrence Howard, of Olyphant, and
William Lawler, of Jessup. The fu
neral was one of the largest ever seen
in Olyphant. . .

and Special Ofllcer Charles Myers, of
liansom township.

guardian of the peace marched them
ahead of him with two loaded revolv
ers in his hands. He aroused Alderman
Hlair, of the Fifth wurd. and the pris
oners were given a healing, whlchye
sulted in the discharge of the woman
und holding her liege lord to bail In
the sum of $:;uo. which he could not
furnish nnd he was registered at the
West Side station house the balance
of the night. The woman started out
singing, "I Won't (let Home Till Morn
ing,' und felt as happy us a lark.
The cause of their arrest was threat
ening to kill Mr. und Mrs. Charles Wil
son, also colored. Iioth families oc
cupy the same house: the tlreens up
stairs and the Wilsons down. The
former were having a dance tiuuday af
ternoon and the hitter were holding a

REGARD If f B FAVOR
District Attorneys of the State Will
Meet Here in July.
WILL ORGANIZE PERMANENTLY
District Attorney John H. Jones la the
Person to Whom Itclongs the Dis
tinction of t'onccivinc
the Idea.
District Attorney John R. Jones has
conceived tht idea of organizing the
district attorneys of Pennsylvania, and
has presented the plan to -each of them,
at the same time tcndcrii.g an Invita
tion to them to come to Scranton next
summer and effect an organization. Mr.
Jones has received answers from a
majority of these gentlemen, and they
are enthusiastically In favor of coming.
He is in communication with the re
mainder of them and anticipates an
unanimous sentiment wh.-n all the
heard from.
It will bring to the city a large num
ber of distinguished lawyers, many of
whom have i:ci been here before, and
there will be an opportunity for Scran
ton to display her abundant advan
tages and push and energy.
Mr. Jones has not definitely fixed the
date, but approximates that it will be
on or about July JO. The visitors will
be here two days. The first will be
devoted to business und organization.
Permanent oillcers will be chosen and
a constitution and by-laws will be
I adopted.
I Allol'T MKMUEHSHIP.
' The office of district attorney being
a iHillticHl one. the membership will be
' changing from time to time as tiie terms
j of the Incumbents expire: Their places
In the association w ill be taken by their
I successors; or. perhaps, it will be made
I to include ex-district attorneys as well.
Judge H. M. P.dwards will deliver an
I address on the occasion, and promln-
ent members of the bar have also been
I Invited, some to speak and others to
I prepare papers. In addition to this
there will be addresses given und pa
pers read by some of the visitors. From
this P will be seen that the occasion
will be one of more than passing im
portance. The assembling will be probably in
the Academy of Music, though It Is
not decided. There nre a number of
places which could be selected, and us
there Is plenty of time yet ahead, this
along with the various other details
that such an event will make neces
sary, will be attended to later by Mr.
Jones, who has undertaken to make the
visit one of great enjoyment to his
brethren of the other counties. There
are sixty-seven counties In the state.
OVER THE GRAVITY.
An incident that will serve to Im
press the visitors with the beauty of
our mountain scenery will be a trip
to Purview over the far-famed gravity
road. Mr. Jones will provide this for
them, and he will nlso be mindful to
give them an opportunity of seeing the
mills and the mines before their de
parture. At present nothing certain is known
about the details except what has now
been stated. The business of the courts
Is .in statu quo during the summer and
it will enable all to come.

Low
Hid front Ueing Accep'c J,
Lively times ure expected at the
meeting of the paving committee of
common council tonight when the ques
tion of deciding between the bids of
J Dunn lirothers nnd the llarber Asphalt
company for the contract for paving
Monroe avenue will come up.
As Dunn Brothers' bid is $2.23 per
square yard and the Parber company's
it would appear that the commit
tee has an easy task before It, but this
Is far from the case. Representative
of the I.arber company will be at the
meeting, prepared to show the commit
tee that Dunn I'.rothcrs have never laid
a yard of asphalt puvement, haven't
got the npolt.incos to do the work and
cannot give the city the pave which the
Kpcclflcutions call for without losing
money; wherefore, they will contend,
the city will be making a questionable
bargain. Dunn lirothers on the other
hand will say "there Is our bond" to
guuiantee that they will do the work in
a satisfactory manner.
The paving committee Is composed of
LuthPr Keller. Thomas McOrail. James
F. NiHine, P. P. Gordon and Edward
Wenzel.
