Colonel Pattie Watkius, Formerly io
Charge of the Salvation Army Bar
racks Here, Soon to Marry.
The beloved Pattie Watkins, known
to every Scrantoiilun. who i3 Interested
in the Salvation and Volunteer armleB,
will be wedded to Frederick A. Lindsay,
start captain In charge of the Volun
teers' trade department. Concerning
the man-lane yesterday's New York Sun
has an interesting announcement of the
event. There is an account of the early
association of the two Volunteers and
the fruutuous consequences. Saj-s the
bun:
The weddlnsr wll take place tn Car
ncsie Hall on the evening of September
S. coiniuanuer jimu, usoin...
Booth, will ollulate. t'.reut prepara
tions for the wedding are beiiitf made
by the oillcers and soldiers of the Vol
unteers, as It will be the lirst function
of the kind held under the direction of
the new organization.
One evening, nearly three years ego,
a young business man, holding a re
sponsible place in the store of A. A,
Vantine & Co., was walking ui the
Howery. Passing the bai racks of the
Bowery cons of the Salvation Army,
diagonally opposite Cooper l.'iiioii, Im
was attracted by the usual sounds that
come from an Army meeting. Ho had
heard what these meetings were like,
but he had never attended one. To
gratify his curiosity, he entered .the
barracks and took a seat near alio
door.
The enthusiasm of the Salvationists
didn't appeal to him, and the discord
ant notes of their singing, the clanging
of the cymbals, and the poundlnir of the
bass drum jarred upon his ears, for
he wus not only a tiained business man?
but a trained musician as well.
He sat there only a short time, how
ever, when the disordant sounds ceased,
and a little dark-haired woman, with
big, soft dark eyes und a trim tlgure,
who appeared to be alie leader of the
meeting, began the singing of one of
iho- uathetic Army songs that have
mm p many converts. The voice of
the iger was a sweet and powerful
sopi Jo. She sang as If her very soul
was m the singing. The young- man
nev took his eyes from the Blnger and
he leemed to be totally oblivious of
everything else around him. When the
song wu.s finished and the little woman
said simply: "Let us pray," the young
man. Instead of bowing his heud In
prayer, sat there, with his guze still
riveted on the woman whose singing
had captivated him.
At length the meeting cloBed, and the
young man, mingling with the Salva
tionists, left the hall. The next night
he was at the barracks again, and the
next and the next. In fact, he had a
standing engagement with hlmslf to
attend the Bowery corps meeting. His
regular attendance was noticed by the
young woman singer, and one night
she walked up the aisle to where he
sat and spoke to him about his soul's
salvation. She learned that he was not
a professing Christian,, and she talked
to him as only an earnest woman can
who believes that the only thing renlly
worth striving for in this world Is a
preparation for the world to come. She
made little headway at llrst, but before
two wveks had come and gone there
was great Joy In the Bowery corps over
the fuct that Staff Captain Pattie Wat
kins, the corpR leader, had made a con
vert of Fredrick A. Linrisey.
It was not long after that that Llnd
sey gave up business and joined the
Army. As a condition of active ser
vice he insisted ujHn being attached to
the Bowery corps. The condition was
acceded to, and he became treasurer of
the corps, lie and Staff Captain l'attle
worked side by side in the Bowery for a
little more than a year, anil it was
largely owing to Llmlsey's busings
methods that Miss Watkins was able
to wipe out the debt of s,0oo under
which the corps was struggling' when
she took command. Before Miss Wat
kins was transferred to the command of
the Newark corps, about two years ago,
Lindsey had asked her a question to
which he received an answer that will
brighten this world for him always.
When she was sent to Newark Lindsey
was transferred tn the Army headquar
ters In Fourteenth street, promoted to
the lank of lieutennnt, and assigned
to the trade department. It was ar
nrnged Ix-tween him and his betrothed
that the wedding should taka place as
soon as practicable.
When the trouble in the Salvation
Army last March resulted In the expul
sion of Commander and Mrs. Itooth,
Staff Captain Watkins decided to fol
low her olil commanders. Of course,
Lindsey could not stay in the Army af
ter that, nnd he, too, resigned. Miss
Watkins was placed in command of the
New York and New Jersey Retriment
of Volunteers, with the rank of colonel,
and Lindsey was put In charge of the
trade department, with the rank of staff
captain.
Ell
I MILLION patriotic voters hare rcc-
m S ognized the confusion of our pub
lic politics, and are determined
toinform themselves, and stand like patriots
in the hour of their peril and vote to the best
of their knowledge, for the best interests of
the common people of the whole country. It
means further that every voter wants to
know, not only the doctrines of his own
party, but the views of all other parties and
the reason for the differences Gold, Silver,
Tariff and Free Trade. To this end we have
secured a complete handbook of public po
litical information, edited by Lawrence F,
Prescott, WHICH WE WILL PRESENT TO
THE PURCHASER OF ANY MEN'S SUIT.
THE OAKITCTDC
(ci De2 Clxt,
of fb? Slibtirbs.
Miss Watkins Identified herself with
the Salvation Army twelve years ago
and Is as well known almost in London
as she is in New York. She has been
spoken of as the most beautiful woman
in the Army. She was also said to
have had the greatest influence of any
member of the Army in New York. She
was born near Cardiff twenty-eight
years agt last April. Her father was a
mining engineer and a man of means.
Her mother now lives In Scranton. Pa.
The daughter attended a young ladies'
seminary tn Cardiff; At 1j she was
converted. Not long after that some
strolling Salvationists came to Cardiff,
and Miss Watkins became interested
in their life and work. Finally she
went to London, entered the Salvation
Army training school, and, upon leav
ing the school, was assigned to work In
London. Her fine soprano voice made
her in great demand at all the London
meetings.
In 1SSC a call was sent out for volun
teers to go to America. Miss Watkins
was the first to volunteer. She came
here as a lieutenant, and was sent to
Tuunton, Mass. From there she was
transferred to Boston, then to Fall
River, nnd five years ago she was or
dered to New York. Three years ago
the command nf the Bowery corps was
given to htr. There were then only ten
active members of the corps. When
she was sent to Newark, two years ago,
there were 150. When Fhe went to the
Bowery the corps was $X,00() In debt.
When she gave up her command there
was a surplus in the treasury of $Mlt).
She has an olive complexion, a small
oval face, dark hair, and large, expres
sive eyes. She Is small In stature and
hns a ligure that Is remarkably grace
ful. Colonel Watkins will he here next
Sunday at a Volunteer mass meeting.
The posters announcing the meeting
has the positive statement that this will
be Miss Watkins' last visit to Scran
ton. This Is probably due to the ap
proaching marriuge.
NEW POST OPENED.
The Volunteers of America opened a
post on this side of the river last night.
It is located In a tent pitched In the
vacant lot at Main avenue and Price
Mreet. Services will be held In the tent
each evening. The post Is in charge of
Captain Lockyer.
FELLOWS TO REMAIN'.
It Is now stated that Captain Eugene
FellowB wll not resign from the com
pany. Cuptaln Fellows' resignation
was sent in before the last camp but
It was rejected. He will now remain

tention. LEAGUE WILL MEET.

MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review
New York, Aug. 19. The event of the
day Id financial circles was the an
nouncement by Lazard Freres that
they Intended to import 2,000,000 gold
from Europe. At the offices of the firm
it was stated that the transaction was
purely an exchange operation. The
announcement led to a good deal of talk
of further imports and a concerted
movement by bankers to bring about
an Influx of the metal the same as in
1S93 when fifteen to twenty millions
were Imported by a syndicate. Nothltif
of cn official character could be ob
tained on this score up to the close of
business at the Stock Exchange. The
heaviest of sterling exchange, the de
mand for the nictaL and the inability
to obtain time money strengthens the
belief that there will be further impor
tations In the near futuTe. The market
at the opening was Inclined to weakness
owing to lower cables from London,
unfavorabjc railway reports for the
second week of August and .further
cutting of freight rates in the west. The
loss In prices outside of Manhattan
which fell nearly 2 per cent, was In
significant. With the announcement of
gold Importations, however, there was
a decided change for the better and the
early loss was riot only recovered but
in a number of instances material gains
were scored. The improvement from
the lowest point of the day ranged
from!4 to 2 per cent except in the
case of Tobacco which Jumped from
534 to 68. The sharp rUJe induced
realizations and near the close a re
action of 14 di i ir cent, ensued.
Speculation closed quite and firm In
tone. Net changes show gains of
per cent, in the usually active list.
In the specialties Minnesota Iron drop
ped 4 to 47. Total saleB were 261.8K
shares.
