PERMANENT HOME
FOR THE MISSION
Was Spoken of by Evangelist Crlttenlon
at Lost Night's Union Meeting.

tho .Missions mid the Necessity for
Tlioir lixlstcncu.
Evangelist Charles X. Crlttenton Inst
evening addressed n union meeting of
the several central city Protestant
churches at the Elm Park chutch on
the subject which Is Inseparably asso
ciated with hl3 namethe Florence
Crlttenton missions.
Tho auditorium and Sunday school
annex were crowded to more than tho
Hentlnu capacity. Chnlrs and the re
serve benches were utilized to accom
modate tho throne. Mr. Crlttenton's
nddress wus a most icmarkable one.
The subject of the "Ions neBlected
class" is nppcallnR In Itself and those
who heard the evangelist last night in
his passionate address lasting nearly
nn hour knew nt once tho reason of his
devotion to the unique cause. Ho is an
enthusiast In the best sense of the
word.
Oiip Incident of luHt night's service
which notlcably stirred the large audi
ence was the remarks of Itev. Joseph
K. Dixon, D. I)., pastor of the Penn
avenue Baptist church.
DR. DIXON'S REMARKS.
Mr. Crlttenton had concluded his
splilted appeal for favor to the fallen
sisters of the land when Dr. Dixon was
introduced by Rev. C. M. Glllln, D. D.,
pastor of the Elm Park church. Dr.
Dixon stated In his opening remarks
that he had heard only a. part of the
evangelist's address, but he had heard
enough to have his soul profoundly
stirred. Tho subject was a momentous
one, said Dr. Dixon. He had been told
recently that there Is more sin of the
character to which the evening's sub
ject points in Scranton than there is in
New York, Chicago, or San Francisco,
that Is, comparatively speaking. If
that be true then the words of the
speaker are doubly important.
Dr. Dixon spoko in this strain for a
few minutes, saying that he wished he
had the millions that are stored In our
banks and in th'e nossession of our
wealthy men. He would "put a mil
lion in a Florence Mission home by
the soa "
The service opened with an organ
voluntary played by Professor Pen
nington. Dr. Glflln read scripture and
Rev. Charles Robinson, pastor of the
Second Presbyterian church, who oc
cupied a sent in the pulpit, offered a
prayer. Alfred Wooler, of tho Elm
Park church quartette, sang a gospel
hymn selection and then followed tho
announcement by Dr. Glflln of the con
cluding meetings of the series, tonight
and Tuesday night at th'e armory and
Wednesday night a farewell meeting
In Elm Park church. Dr. Glflln be
fore placing the meeting In the charge
of Mr. Crlttenton, 'extended the cour
tesies of Elm Park church to the sev
eral 'congregations present "Not be
cause that wo have larger Jiearts,"
said Dr. Glflln, "but because our house
Is a little larger."
A SILENT PRAYER.
Frank Wallace, the Crlttenton solo
ist, sang "Nellie, Come," In a very
effective manner. Mr. Crlttenton be
fore beginning his address led in a few
moments of silent prayer. He ch'ose
for his theme the strikingly appropri
ate words In Islnh, xlll:22, "But this
Is a people robbed and spoiled; they
aie all of them snared ini holes, and
they are hid in prison houses; they
are for a prey and none dellvereth; for
a spoil and none snlth: Restore!"
"It covers all classes," said the evan
gelist. The question is often asked
why are they called the "Florence
Crlttenton" homes. Mr. Crlttenton
then told the story of his salvation
how the death of his little daughter
Florence had Instilled within him
first the desire to see her once more
and then the thought that he was un
worthy to enter the kingdom; hoy he
decided to become a Christ follower
nnd how he listened to the words of
God: "Be obedient."
He told of the months Immediately
following the child's death and how
finally the hand pointed to him his
life work.
Mr. Crlttenton gave incidents and
illustrative stories of the life he had
seen In the poorer quaiters of New
York city. He thought: "Why don't
these girls enter better avenues?"
Then it flashed across his mind that
they had none. The Florence Crltten
ton mission, established by him in New
York fourteen years ago was the result.
CAUSES OF RUINED HOMES.
Going trom these personal remlnls
censes Mr. Crlttenton said that the
causes of wrecked and ruined lives are
found In "affection, dancing, skating,
drugs and wages "
The final cause he dwelt upon at
length, telling a story of how a young
widow who received $2.50 per week pay.
When she asked for more wages was
directed to tho bookkeeper of the estab
lishment a woman who suggested tho
life of shame. The young widow after
ward became a member of tho mission.
Mr. Crlttenton followed this Introduc
tory with a number of thrilling stories
of rescue woilc. He talked in a quick,
all absorbing way and held the closest
attention throughout. He cited three
places in the Bible whero the fallen
woman is suggested and divinely for
given. These are: St. John, fourth
chapter; St. John, eighth chapter; St.
Luke, seventh chapter.
After Mr .Crlttenton's address an ef
fort was made to raise funds for the
Scranton mission. Four hundred dol
lars were subscribed by as many per
sons, Mr. Crlttenton himself being one;
besides the general collectlop. The
church was prettllv decorated. Owing
to the union service the usual evening
service was abandoned in a number of
the central city churches.
It is not generally known that the
management of the Scranton mission
will make an effort to obtain enough
subscriptions for the erection of their
own building. This was announced in
connection with the meeting last
night. Shares for life membership,
double membership and single mem
bership will bo distributed. For each
share the contribution is respectively:
$100, $50 and $12.50. The money collect
ed during the Crlttenton meetings will
serve as a nucleus.
AFTERNOON MEETING.
Mr. Crlttenton adressed a meeting In
the North End at 3.30 o'clock In the
afternoon in Company H armory.
There was a large attendance. A choir
under the leadership of Reese Watklns,
organized for the oocasion, open'ed tho
meeting with a short song serylce and
then Mr. Crltcnton called for Scripture
quotations. Itev. W. 0. "Watklns, pas
tor of the North Main avenuo Baptist
church, offered prayer and Mr. Wallace
sang "The Master io Come and Is Call
ing for Thee."
Mr. Crlttenton was Introduced by
Hev. a. E. Guild and took for tho text
of his adrcss words from the gospel of
St. John, Ho dwelt to some extent on
tho necessity of Florence mission work.
A short song service closed the meet
ing. Saturday night the evangelist ad
dressed a largo meetlnfc ot young peo
ple in the armory on Adams avenue.

FETE CHAMPETRE
ON SPENCER'S HILL
Italian Residents ot Dunmoro Have a
Big Celebration.
IN HONOR OF ST. ANTHONY'S DAY
Open Air l'cstirnl Which llccnn
Snturdny Evening mid Continued
Alt Day Ycstordny mid Lnto Into
Lnst Niglit--A Hand nnd n Shrino
ami n Grcnscd Polo Among tho
Features oftlio EvcuN-Lnrgo Statue
of Wax Unveiled.
St. Anthony ot Padua is to the Italian
what St. Patrick Is to tho Irish and
St. Anthony's day is celebrated by the
son of Sunny Itnlv with all the ardor
and enthusiastic devotion that marks
the annual recurrence of tho 17th of
March. Yesterday was St. Anthony's
day and tho wlda world over wherever
there exists a good sized colony of his
devotees there was some sort of an ob
servance In commemoration of tho
event.
Up in Dunmoro where the Italians
make up a goodly part ot the popula
tion, there was a celebration that pos
sibly was not outdone In point ot gran
deur and eclat by "any similar affair in
oven Italy Itself. It took the shape of
a, fete champetre to depart from tho
Italian with the champs on the classic
heights above No. G known In local
geography ns Spencer's Hill.
On a shaded plateau opposite the
Church of S. Antonl dl Padua, on
Smith street, were erected for the oc
casion a band stand, a shrine, re
freshment booths, a greased pole and
other llke festal appurtenances. The
streets of the Italian settlement lead
ing to the hill were gaily decorated with
flags and Chinese lanterns. Tho church
was also highly beautified In the Inter
ior with flowers nnd ribbons and a
mass of varl-colored tin ornamen
tation wrought in many a fanciful
shape by the colony's artlctlc and dex
terous tinsmith.
There, also, was a massive statue of
St. Anthony, a marvelous work of art,
made entirely of wax and costing when
enclosed in its marble-trimmed glass
case, over $500. One of the membets of
the parish was ten months In making
It. It Is ten feet high and weighs half
a ton. The statue was unveiled yes
terday morning with appropriate cere
monies. ON THE FETE GROUNDS.
But it was on the fete grounds that
the art of tho decorator reached its
height. Evergreen and (lags Ameri
can Macs only fairly hid the various
stands and booths. Tho shrine was
simply beyond a hurried description.
It was a three-sided affair, raised on
posts entwined with evergreen and
built much after the fashion of a side
wlng hand ball alley and quite as large.
Bunting and evergreen entered mostly
Into Its construction, but its one par
ticular feature was 2,000 home-made
paper lanterns of various hues shaped
like a pall and containing a small gaso
line lamp, which when lighted at night
presented a strikingly attractive ap
pearance. The exercises began Saturday even
ing and continued until late last night.
Thousands of Italians attended from all
over the valley and thousands of oth
ers paid a visit for an hour or two to
witness the spectacle, so at any time,
except possibly the wee sma' hours of
yesterday morning, there was an im
mense crowd on the grounds.
The new Italian band, Roma. Cor
net band, of Dunmoro, was "engaged
for the occasion," and like all new
bands It knew what it had been hired
for. It began playing at 7 o'clock Sat
urday night and continued all
day yesterday and last even
ing. It rendered all the popu
lar selections and some that
even Bauer or Lawrence, or the other
crack organizations haven't got In
their repertoire. One of these which
was given during the afternoon when
the crowd was largest necessitated the
scattering of the musicians around
through the woods and up in
trees and such like. From an elevated
perch on the band stand, the leader,
with the aid of a big baton which was
kept In sight by the scatered bands
men, managed to maintain good lime
and harmony. It was certainly an en
tertaining speclulty and was loudly ap
plauded by every class of persons pres
ent.
THE GREASED POLE.
The most amusing feature of the oc
casion was the efforts of the athletic
young men of the colony to climb the
greased pole, atop ot which was a ten
dollar gold piece, three bottles of wine,
two ilagons of whiskey, a box of cigars,
three big cheeses and a bunch of bolog
na sausages each a yard long, all of
which was to become the property of
the first person to climb to the top. At
last reports the prizes were still swing
ing gaily from the hoop at the top of
the greased pole.
The booths did a thriving business
with their cheeses, fruits, candles,
wines, etc., but everything was order
ly and everyone sociable and good-natured.
A similar event occurred a year ago,
and It Is proposed to make It an an
nual one.
