NATIONAL UNION
PRIZE BANNER
Presentation of the Emblem to St.
Aloysius Young Men's Society.
EXERCISES HELD AT MUSIC HALL
Address of Presentation .Undo by
Itev. J. A. Mollitt, Acting Spiritual
Director of the Diocesan I nion.--Kcceircd
by Tlioma-t A. Donnuoc,
President of the Society.. -Orntion
by Rev. I". P. .Uc.Xnlly, nnd an
Address by J. J. tVIItirn, President
of the I'nion.
Music hall was crowded to tts utmost
last night while the celebration was In
progress In honor of winning the na
tional prize banner by St. Aloysius
Young Men's Total Abstinence society
of the South Side. It has. been fully ex
plained heretofore that the National
Total Abstinence I'nion each year of
fers a silk banner to the society show
ing the largest increase in member
ship during the year paist preceding
the national convention.
This time it wns the good fortune of
the St. Aloysius society to win It. De
tween August 1, ).'., and August 1,
1Su6, nearly 100 members were added to
the rolls. The banner Is a beautiful
silk eblem and Is treasured In the high
est regard by the society. It was placed
on the left s'.do of the stage last night
and was admired by the throngs who
came to attend the presentation exer
cises. Thomas A. Donahue, president of th"
Foclety, was chairman. He made an
address stating the object of the meet
ing nnd after a piano solo by Miss
Katie Reardon, the address of presen
tation was made by Rev. J. A. Mo'lllt,
of St. John's church, who Is acting
spiritual director of the Scranton
Diocesan I'nion In the absence of Rev.
Father Melley In Kurnpe. Father Mot
lilt. In his usual eloquent and Interest
ing style, engaged attention for a few
minutes and handed the prize over to
Mr. Donahoe for tho society. The lat
ter received it In a graceful speech.
INTK.M PF.UANCK DECREASING.
Rev. F. P. McNally, of St. Patrick's
church, West Side, delivered the ora
tion. There were two factors, he said,
which are making Intemperance the
exception rather than the rule. The
prayers that ascend to the throne of
grace In heaven from the mothers,
wives, sisters and daughters of the
land aro making the men, young and
old, better and nobler. That Is the
greatest factor. Hut there is also some
thing cl.se.
In this time of netlve competition
the business mnn and employer will
not trust his Interests In the hands of
a man who Is not sober nnd who can
not at all times exercise the faculties
which God endowned him with. Of
necessity then men are compelled to
lead sober lives, for there Is no tolera
tion of the drunkard.
Father McNally urged upon the
young men of all societies to develope
th"tir mental faculties. His oration
was delivered In a clear resonant style
and was listened to with close attention
from the beginning to end, except When
he would be Interrupted by applause.
The musical and literary part of the
exercises was rendered by Miss Katie
Donahoe, Miss Winifred, Dut kin, Miss
Mamie Roland, Miss Katie Cnmmlngs,
Miss Lizzie Dutkin, Thomas Larkln,
of the West Side, Thomas Hanley, of
Plttston avenue; James Riley, of Pros
pect avenue, and Messrs. Honan and
Mullnrkey. Irish artists. Dancing wns
the postlude of the exercises, for which
music was furnished by Miss Katie
Reardon.
PRKSIDKNT O'HORA'S ADDRKSS.
James J. O'Hoin. of Tarsons, presi
dent of the Scranton Diocesan I'nion,
was Introduced and mndo a good
speech. He said that Scranton has been
doubly honored this time; the national
prize banner was won here, and the
next national convention Is coming
here. The members of the society, that
won the banner, he knows, will guard
it as u precious belonging nnd will aim
with still further effort to progress In
the work of temperance.
Mr. Pliant hoped that HI temperance
men of Scranton, lircspctive of society,
will unite In one grand effort to make
the comi'ng of the national delegates
next year a visit that will Impress them
with the Importance of the cause.
The committeee that arranged the
presentation exercises consisted of An
thony J. Rattle, James Riley, Martin
Cannon, Charles Raskins, Thomas N.

Mayor liniley, Select Councilman
Wade M. Finn nnd Common Council
man James Moir were consulted yester

HAD PLANNED
A CHEAP TRIP
Eight Minooka Boys Were Arrested on
an Excursion Train.
THEY RODE ON STOLEN TICKETS
Minooka Station of the Delaware and
Hudson Itoud Was llrokrn Into a
Pew Mights Ago nod u Package of
Excursion Tickets Stolcn-Eigbt of
Them Picked I'p on the Way to Far
view with St. Joseph's Excursion.
Eight Minooka lads, their aces rang
ing between 13 and 21 years, slept In
the county jail last night, and the par
ents of most of them were greatly wor
ried over their failure to come home.
Their names are: Joseph Walsh, John
Donovan. William O'llara, Martin Fitz
henry, William Kearney, Anthony Con
nolly, John Joyce and Maurice Fceney.
They were arrested by Detective Mar
tin Crippen. of the Delaware and Hud
son Railroad company at Carbondnle on
warrants sworn out before Alderman
S. S. Jones, of that city, and In de
fault of bail were committed to jail.
St. Joseph's Total Abstinence and
P.enevolent society of Minooka ran an
excursion to Farvlew yesterday. A. few
nights ago the Delaware and Hudson
station at Minooka was broken Into and
a package of tickets for the excursion
was stolen.
TRAP WAS LAID.
A trap was laid to catch the thieves.
The agent reported the burglary to the
main office of tho company, and Mr.
Crippen was given the case In hand.
He calculated that at least some of the
stolen tickets would be used on the ex
cursion yesterday, because they were
good for only that occasion. Tho tickets
could bo readily Identified; first, because
the agent knew the missing numbers;
and second, because they were not
stamped.
When tho conductor went through the
train collecting the tickets he picked
up eight of the ones stolen and the per
sons who held them were the eight
boys and young men named. When the
train arrived at Carbondale the double
quartette was taken off by Mr. Crippen
and two officers, and the young chaps
did not know what was up until they
were marched Into tho ofllce of Alder
man Jones.
The capture was worked so smoothly
nnd without friction that no one on
the train was aware of the undercur
rent of affair). The young fellows had
many relatives and friends on the ex
cursion, but the latter were In' blissful
Ignorance of what had happened.
IN A FIX.
Alderman Jones gave them a hearing,
but could not take ball on that charge.
In a case of high grade felony It Is nec
essury to go before a judge of the court.
At any rate there wns no one present
to go bail for the defendants, and they
had to go to jail. On the way down
they Were very much troubled, and
they seemed to appreciate that they
were caught In a tight box.
Night Warden T. J. I'rice, at the Jail,
when ho learned the full particulars,
sent a telephone message to Martin
McDonough, the Minooka business man.
but the parents of the defendants will
not all hear of tho case until this morn
ing. The King of Pills Is Beechnm's.
