' Editor of The Tribune.
Sir In these hot summer days there are
' a great many contests of physical skill
ofld endurance, but no oral or mental con
tests. Why not for a change arrange for
some public contests on the money ques
tion. If any free coinage silver advocate
or single gold standard advocate wants to
try his mettle we will oppose him.

ADDRESS BY MISS LUCY WHEELOCK
Judge Hand Presents Diplaaus t
Nine ,. Graduates and Tea Past
UradaatesNaate of he Jsssers
of the Two ClasrsLarge and
Fashionable Audience Attends the
Exercises.
The commencement exercise of the
Scranton Training school for kinder
garteners took place last night at T. M.
C. A. hall. There was a large and
fashionable audience present, composed
mainly of the relatives and friends of
the graduates and the members of the
kindergarten association.
A bank of laurels and ferns surmount
ed by a portrait of Frobee, the founder
of the kindergarten system, formed the
background of the stake. Just in front
of it sat Hon. Alfred Hand. Rev. C. M.
Glltin, D. D., of Elm Park church; Rev.
Rogers Israel, rector of St. Luke's;
Katherlne Hall Clarke, principal of the
Scranton school, and Miss Lucy Whee
lock, the well known klndergartner who
four years ago came here to organise
the first training class. The graduating
class, numbering ten young ladies. Bat
on either side of the stage and the post
graduates, nine in number, occupied
chairs immediately in front of and fac
ing the stage.
Itcv.' Dr.'Glffln opened the exercises
with an invocation, which was followed
with a vocal selection, a pretty lullaby,
by a quartette composed of Messrs.
Croft, Runyon, Holeomb and Dryer.
Judge Hand then Introduced Miss
Wheelock, who delivered the address
to the graduates. She characterised
education as a process of world mak
ing and after showing, by clever argu
ments and illustrations, that the world
is to each of us just what we arc capa
ble of valuing It at, deduced the In
thuslasm that insomuch as we are edu
cated Just so much are we able to ap
preciate the world. The significance of
the kindergarten wherein are set to
work the first Influences In the fabri
cating of this Individual world was for
cibly argued along the line "As the twig
Is bent, the tree's Inclined." Her mes
sage to the graduates was a charge that
they realize that the teachers of the
little children of the present shall de
termina what the twentieth century
shall be.
THE DIPLOMAS PRESENTED.
After a serenade by the quartette,
Judge Hand, acting In the absence of
the president of the association, A. D.
Holland, who is 111, presented the diplo
mas llrst to the graduates and then to

practical word to each.

class was made by Rev. Rogers Israel
and then he brought the exercises to a
close with a benediction,

of this story his business was Injured.
Vlsenberg was required to furnish $200
bail to answer at court.
When Special Officer Jack Tlerney
was placing Vlsenberg under arrest a
young man named M. Spiegel made
hlmself'ery officious, demanding to pee
the warrant and endeavoring to prevent
his friend from being arrested. He very
foolishly followed Tlerney and his pris
oner to the alderman's office, for once
there he was placed under arrest for
interfering with an officer. After hear
ing Tlerney's story the aldermun fined
Spiegel $10.
The hearing in the case of O. F. Mo
Kcnna. charged by his former partner
with defacing a tombstone at the mar

a half interest In the stone and Mc-
Sherry had no right to prepare it for
sale. He was held in $600 ball to an
swer at court the charge of malicious
mischief. Hon. John P. Qulnnan repre
sented the defendant and Hon. John P.

Q. W. Dunn, the well-known Linden
street blacksmith, who resides near
Forest Hill, was yesterday the owner
of eight fine St. Bernard pups five
weeks old. The dogs were kept in a
barn near his residence and were
guarded by a bull dog. About S.30 yes
terday afternoon two young men vis
ited the barn and stole the bull dog and
three of the pups. The thieves were
discovered by one of Mrs. Dunn's neigh
bors as they were disappearing over the
hill near the oral school and headed up
the valley.
The alarm was given and Mr. Dunn
was sent for at once. Taking Constable
Black with htm, Mr. Dunn started up
the valley In the direction taken by the
thieves. Before starting he telegraphed
to Mickey Moran, the Carbondale
sleuth, to be on the watch for the fugi
tives. The young men are described as
being about 18 years of age, wearing
felt hats, dark clothes and base ball
shoes.
One of the animals stolen, It is said,
had but three legs.
SHE LEFT TWO WILLS.
This Action on the Part of Mrs.Mc-
' Loughlln Promises to Produce Much
Ligation Caveat Filed.
Mrs. Ellen McLaughlin, wife of the
late William McLaughlin, of Wilkes
Barre, died at the St. Charles hotel Sat
urday afternoon, and before her death
shit made two wills. Attorney 8. J.
Strauss, of Wllkes-Iiarre, called at the
oflice of Register of Wills Hopkins yes
terday and filed a caeat against any
will dated later than June 8, 1896.
For over twenty years William Mc
Laughlin kept a hotel In Wllkes-Barre
and was quite prosperously situated.
Miss Anna O'Malley, his wife's sister,
lived with them since she was a small
girl. They never had any children of
their own.' He died not very long ago
and Mrs. and her sister lived in the ho
tel until recently, when the former dis
posed of the place and gave up business.
They came to Scranton three or four
weeks and lived for a time with rela
tives. This was not to their liking and
on June 1 they took rooms at the St.
Charles. Mrs. McLaughlin was in de
bilitated physical condition when they
went to the hotel and she kept growing
worse. On Monday, June 8, she made
a will in faVor of her sister.
A few years later other relatives in
duced her tc make another will, and It
Is against this will that Attorney Strauss
yesterday filed the caveat. The regis
ter Is warned not to probate any will
because the domicile of the decedent is
in Wllkea-Barre, and claiming that her
death In Scranton was while she was
here on a temporary visit.
DEACON NICELY IN A BAD FIX.

after marriage his wife abandoned htm,
going to Virginia. After coming to this
county he was taken sick, and vrote
for his wife, thinking !ie would come.
Instead a letter came tttutlug that she
was dead.
He recovered and married 8a rah
Bales, who proved a ?'od and devoted
wife, and who assist i! hlin In accumu
lating a nice fortune. This fact seems
to have reached Virginia parties, who,
he says, recently wrote informing him
that unless he would send them $1,200
they would expose him, stating that his
first wife was living, which is true.
Nicely refused to do this and his arrest

THEY WANT TO HOLD THE REINS
Parishonera of Rev. Father Aust Held
a Meeting Saturday Night.
The meeting of the members of the
Sacred Heart Polish congregation of
the South Side who object to Rev. Rich
ard A. Aust's way of managing the fin
ances of the parish, was 600 strong at
Mlchaelowskl's hall, Plttston avenue
ami Elm street, Saturday night The
Bystem of levying money is as follows:
Each male over 21 years of age must
pay $6 a day and $5 additional for pew
rent Those who do not pay pew rent
must when they come to church, pay
10 cents. Collections are taken up at
Christmas and Easter. Figuring at a
conservative estimate they calculate
that the annual revenue of the parish
Is at least $18,000.
Ten days ago Rev. Father Aust pur
chased one and one-quarter acres of
land adjoining the Polish cemetery to
be used also for cemetery purposes. The
price paid was $1,200. The objectors
think that the pastor should have a
large amount of money on hand which
was derived from the graves sold at $1
apiece In the old cemetery, but they al
lege that he told them he has none of
It. They propose to pay him a salary.
and pay the expenses of the church and
parochial school.
At the meeting the following officers
were chosen: President, Joseph Netct;
vice-president, Mathlas Sufka; secre
tary, Leon Kofchlnkl; assistant secre
tary, Stanley Rumovlch; treasurer,
Martin Rabega; executive committee.
Martin Woyshner, Lawrence Olentchka,
John Plkulskt, John Zaskulskl. John
Nawrockl, Ladlslaw Sntter and Stanley
Zelinski. The executive committee was
instructed to wait upon Rev. Father
Aust and made known to him that the
congregation proposed to manage the
business affairs of the pariah. He
would not accept their proposition.
A committee consisting of Joseph
Netcs, Martin Rabega, Albert Dury,
Mathlas Sufka and Ladlslaw Sviter
watted upon ,Rt. Rev, Bishop O'Hada
last evening and made a complaint that
there is now and has been for several
years a debt of over $8,000 against the
parish, and that although the annual
revenue amounts to about $15,000 and
the expenses are much less than halt
that, yet not one cent has been applied
to the reduction of the debt. ' They
asked that their pastor be ordered to
give an account of where the money
