ADROITLY WORKS THE SHOT TRICK Undo West Wns Ono of the Vontrllo cjuUt's Victim nnd Is Still Scorch ing for Somconc-.-IIostlcr Drive Sinnrtuood Iiccaino Angry When JIo Couldn't rind nn Invisible Tor ninntor anil Joined His Troubles with liny Onkly, Another Subject. Charles A. Hartley, the New York ventriloquist, of Elevated railroad, fame, and who Is well known In Scrnn ton, was at Lake Wlnola Thursday, and durlns the visit to the lake, Colonel Frcar's hotel and every other thins was hlsn'. Poor old Uncle West is still roaming tho ancient woods In vain search for some one. Uncle West Is a farmer with tho In evitable lunch of BTay spinach hang ing down his vest. Ho stood In tho pnvllllon doonvny when the mild man nered Mr. Hartley came along with his usual following of worshippers, hungry for fun. They got It. As Uncle "West was In tho doorway talking to Mr. Hartley, a still, small voice enmo from somewhere. "Uncle West" cocked his ears and looked up tho hill toward tho hotel. "Some one calling, listen," sold the mild mannered Hartley. "He's culling me," said the farmer. Again tho voice called Uncle West. "Comln'l" yelled back Uncle West, as he started on a trot. "He wants Mr. Best," said Hartley, turning to the crowd. "No," said Uncle West impatiently, "He wants me,'1 and again he started on his Ponce do Leon search. Uncle West may be going yet. Th? last seen of him he was trying to get into the tin typo gallery. TWO PLYMOUTH GIRLS. This even was early in tho afternoon. In the evening that far away voice was the cause of family dissension at the hotel. A Mr .Lazurus and his 19-yenr-old son, a Princeton student, by the way, got into a quarrel over who should respond to two Plymouth young ladles who they thought were calling for them. The young ladles were ut terly Innocent as they strolled along the lake's edge. Mr. Hartley stood elbow to elbow with the Lazuruses. But It was fun to see the grey haired father rebuke his son because he would not answer tho ludles. while he him self trotted after them and stopped them and made apologies. The greatest event of all was at mid night. Mr. Hartley worked the "shot" Juke on "Dave" Smartwood, hostler at the hotel. Dave Is an innocent young man, with eyes like fawn's. Mr. Hart ley, after the fashion of the trick, pelted poor "Dave" in tho ace with the shot projected by his tongue. , Dave began sayln' things and ac cusln' the whole country side with shooting with a putty blower at him. In due time a voice called out "Dave Smartwood!" "Someone calling," said Hartley, turning Innocently to the crowd. "Any one here by the name of Smartwood?" "Yes," said the hostler, "that's me." Again and again the voice called, while between times the shot were pelting holes In Dave Smartwood's face. He got riley. "What ye want?" ho bellowed. "Where air ye?" Finally Smartwood went down to the barn In search of the unseen assailant. The poor fellow looked everywhere; up In trees, under wagons, behind shanties; he hurled stones at shadows and chal lenged tho miscreant to "come out in the open!" USED A LANTERN, Roy Oakley Joined tho crowd while Smartwood was having his fit. Roy is a nice young farmerlte of 17 years, a twang on his voice and a big straw hat on his head. Hartley was given his name; that was enough. Roy felt the shot hit his face, he heard his name called. Ho and Smartwood formed sort of a union for battering purposes. Smartwood got a lantern, lighted it and tho two loaded their arms and pockets with stones and banged for an hour. Hartley would coach them. "Now," said he, "you two fellows make a dive all of a sudden and if you catch him hammer the life out of him." "I know who It Is," exclaimed young Oakley, very confident; "It's Jeff Stur devant, that's who It is. Say, Jeff!" ho called out, "what ye shootln here fer, eh?" Hartley got his small voice In work again. The two fellows chased about for "Jeff Sturdevant" until 1 o'clock In the morning. Lo, to the poor wayfarer whom they caught at that time. When Hartley had had enough of the fun and the crowd of spectators were paralyzed from laughter, tho two fel lows were sent home, each vowing. ven geance on Jeff Sturdevant, who prob ably was In bed at tho time all uncon scious oT tho sins committed in his name. The reason that they picked out Sturdevnnt as the will-o'-the-wisp was because this man had tried to oust Smartwood out of his Job at the hotel barn. HE WAS FRIGHTENED. Smartwood didn't sleep Thursday night. Tho crowd at the hotel made him believe that Sturdevant had been struck by a stone oyer tho eye and was looking for Smarjwood. Roy Oak ley was escorted to his home in Mill CUy by four friends. Roy had his arm3 full of stones all the way down. 'Mr. Hartley left tho hotel yesterday morning and will spend a few days in this city visiting his father-in-law, Esdras Howell, of Washburn street. His performance at the lake proves that, besides being decidedly entertain ing, those stories of his escapades which Mr. Hartley publishes in the great New York papers aro entirely probable and are to be wondered at for that reason. GOSI'EI, roil THE MILLIONS. Work and Needs ot the American Trnct Society. It stated that the American Tract society publishes evangelical truth in 153 languages and dialects; the total number of volumes in all languages published In New York reaches 31.D00, 000, and the total number of books and tractB nearly 600,000,000, and tho total periodicals over 200,600,000. Though Its missionary colportage the society has carried tho gospel to the out-of-the-way places and into the congested wards of the cities. "It has gono into the lumber camps, the mining rcgiqns and the sparsely-settled districts, leav ing the Christly message among tnoso people who were entirely destitute of all religious privileges, Hundreds) of Sunday schools have been organised, and devotional services held In Mop cabins, school houses and oftentimes in tho open air," Tho whole number of family visits slnco the society began its house-to-house work Is over 14,600,000, and the number of families prayed with or con verted with on religious subjects nmounts to nearly 8,600,000. Tho lfiBt annual report stated that tho society's income has been lessened by tho fall ing off In legacies o nearly $50,000 during tho past yenr, and that the great need was an increase in dona tions. ARE AT IT AQAIN. Arthur rrotliinghnni nnd Attorney Itcploglo lluvon't Finished. Arthur Frothlnghnm and Attorney D. P. Rcploglo are at It again. Yester day morning Mr. Frothlnghnm pppear cd against Attorney Rcplogle at a hear ing before Alderman Millar In an action to recover $125 which, It Is alleged, At torney Iteploglo owed him on a note. Alderman Millar gave Judgment In favor of Mr. Frothlnghnm. At the hearing Mr. Frothlnghnm stated that ho would endeavor to have Attorney Replogle disbarred for his alleged ac tion on the note business. Attorney Reploglo makes his defense) in a bill of complnlnt In equity court and In which ho concludes as follows: "Your orator verily believes that the defendant Is endeavoring to oppress and harass your orator without any warrant In law and with the actions aforesaid and in any which may be brought by him in tho same matter are useless nnd oppressive litigation; your orator therefore prays your honorable court that a writ of Injunction may bo granted rostralnlng the said Arthur Frothlngham first, from maintaining his present action In assumpsit men tioned; second, from bringing uny fu ture notion or prosecution for the mat tor aforementioned." BICYCLE PATH TO HAWLEY Company to Turn the Old Gravity Road bed Into a Boulevard for Wheelmen. The latest enterprise in which Ar thur Frothlnghnm is interested is the Lackawanna and Wayne Boulevard and .Bicycle Path company. This com pany Is regularly chartered and has for Its object tho opening of a boule vard and bicycle path between this city and Hawley with a "branch reaching to Honesdale. Mr. Frothlnghnm states there will not be any building of a roadbed required as he completed ar rangements on Thursday afternoon with the officers of the Pennsylvania Coal company for the use of the aban doned road-bed of the old Pennsylvania gravity road from Dunmore to Hawley. Tho path will begin at a point on this old road-bed, which has been denuded of rails and ties, near Spencer's break er In Dunmore. There aro four planes to be walked and this brings the rider to near the old Mooslc Highlands tun nel and from this point, an easy grade carries the cyclist to Hawley, a total ride of 32 miles. One short piano Is encountered en route and this is found near where the road passes Lake Ariel. The lake lies within a mile of the "Path." If the tourist desires to go to Honesdale, he stops at Hoadloys, a point seven miles this sldo of Hawley, and he has a nice 5-mllo run into Honesdale. Tho Honesdale branch will bo built by Honesdale people. Along the- path one will have easy access to nine lakes, one falls and ono glen. The lakes are Smith lake, Lake Blacklngton, Mooslc lake. Spirit lake, Klzer's lake, Lake Henry, Lake Ariel,1 Sand lake and Cadjan lake. Beautiful Middle Valley falls and enticing Fern glen are the other two points of Inter est. To make the path a finished piece of bicycle roadway will take about six weeks, Mr. Frothing says. Shale will be placed on the present rood ballast nnd a track twelve feet In width rolled Into shape with a two-ton road-roller. Tho toll for the trip with the side eights thrown in will bo 23 cents for a round trip from Dunmore to Hawley. If the cyclist wishes to make a "cen tury" run he can continuo from Hawley to Port Jervis (2G miles) and thenco to Delaware "Water Gap. AFRICAN CHILDREN. Homeless Roys Who Are Found in the Congo Villnges. Prof. Drummond, after hl3 visit to Africa, said he would like to get In side nn African for an afternoon, and see how he looked at different things, says a writer in Harper's Young Peo ple. Wouldn't wo like to know Just how these boys and girls feel, and what they think when they are sud denly landed, fresh from the depths of a savage land, in the streets of Paris, Brussels or Berlin, and see more things In a day they never heard of than wo do In a year? They learn many things, as a baby does, by stern experience. When von Francois brought nn eight-year-old boy from Inner Africa to the sea, the youngster chased along tho beach In high glee, and before any ono could stop him, tried to refresh himself with a big swnllow of ocean water. This samo boy, Plttl. thought tho snow he saw falling in Berlin was a. swarm of buterfltes. The ilrst horse he saw terrified him, and the Berlin newspapers told of his unbounded as tonishment at the strange dishes and viands on his master's table. What a marvelous change In the condition of these children! Many of them were slaves, and some of them had been brutally treated, and even wounded, by cruel slave dealers. Today they have good homes, and the world Is doing all it can to make them intelligent and honorable men and women. Thero are "street arabs," or home less boys, In the Congo villages, Just ns there aro in New York city. They live on what they can pick up, and it sharpens their wits to have to hustle for a living. It would tako a smart Yankee boy to beat some of these Congo youngsters in a trade. Even a five-year-old will sometimes amass a little capital. Somehow he will get hold of a string of beads. Ho may trade it for a small chicken, which thrives under his nurturing care, and In a few months he can sell the fowl for four Btrlngs of beads, quadrupling his capital. Pretty soon he is able to buy a pig, which follows him like a dog and sleeps in his hut, and when piggy grows up his owner gets a good prico for him in the market. Eggs nt tho Aleeting.

NOTABLE PRELATES TO BE PRESENT Among Thorn Mny lie Apostolic Dele gate Mnrtlul, Cnrdiunl Gibbons, Archbishops Uynn nnd Ireland, nnd Others of National Repata--Ex-pected That 1,000 Delegates Will Ho HcroLargo l'nrtlos from tho Large Cities. The general committee In chargo of tho twenty-seventh annual national convention of tho Catholic Total Ab stinence Union of America, to be held In this city on Aug, 17, 18, 19, was held last evening at the residence of Ilev. E. J. Melley, pastor of St. John's church, South Side. The attendance was BUtHclently largo to show the great interest that is being taken by the Scranton abstainers. Hev. Father Melley stated nt the close of tho meeting that he has sent peronnl Invitations to many promin ent clergymen of the Catholio faith to bo present at the convention. Among the clergymen are: Apostolic Delegate Martini, whose presence In Scranton would be a great boom to the conven tion: also Cardinal Gibbons, Arch bishop Ryan, Archbishop Ireland and Bishops Collotl, Waterson, Chatard, Qulgley and Dr. Conaty, of tho Catho lic university. FHOM CHICAGO AND NEW YORK. Responses from some of the clergy have been received, but no public an nouncement of the nature can bo made at this time. Other prominent men outside of church circles have been asked to attend. It is expected that about 1,000 delegates will be hero. Be sides these there Is a club of 200 com ing from Chicago, and similar largo :jartlcs from Pittsburg and New York city. , It was decided to hold the convention rally on the evening of Aug. 19, tho last of the convention, at the Lyceum theatre. Judge P. P. Smith will pre side. The programme for the exercises has not been perfected and probably will not be until within a few days of tho convention, as several delegates who have been asked to speak at the meeting have not responded. D. J. Campbell, John H. Devlno and James H. Lavelle were added to the committee on music. The ladles' com mittee who will entertain the visiting lady delegates will meet next week to arrange their part of the gathering. J. C.

At 7 o'clock, Thursday evening, a pat ado will take place before tho rally and Saturday, Aug. 21, an excursion to Farviow will bo conducted. COLONIZING NATIONS. No Country So Successful ns Great liritnin in Establishing Colonics. Says the Sun: England is today the only European government, except Holland, which has a larger colonial than a home population. Tho total population of the British empire, In cluding British protectorates in Asia and Africa, was 382,000,000 by tho last census, while the total population of Great Britain by the same census was only 33,000,000, or ten per cent In other words, the colonial possessions of Great Britain were nine times larger than the home country in respect to population. Russia has extended to the east and south Its imperial boun daries. France, in concert with Eng land, has acquired new colonies in Asia and Africa. Portugal, Denmark and Holland have retained big colonics abroad, though tho extent of the col onies of the first have been declining of late years, whllo the proportion of colonists to homo Inhabitants In Hol land has declined during the last two centuries. But England keeps stead ily increasing and, of late, there has been an addition to tho number of English colonies, while, on tho other hand, tho Spanish colonies, in respect of area and population, have been de clining. Curiously enough, Italy which has an overflowing population, and has con tributed to the United States, to the Argcntlno Republic, and to other American states thousands of hardy immigrants, has, in fact, no colonies of her own and the effort to establish a protectorate in Abyssinia has ended disastrously. Still another European country which would seem to have many facilities for colonization Is Aus tria, but there are no Austrian col onies, and no serious expansion of tho empire In any direction.

One ex tends Its powers and authority; an ad jacent country doesn't. Sweden, for Instance, has for many years main tained colonics In various parts of tho world. Norwny, which adjoins, never has, though the Norwegians are, per haps, hotter sailors oven than the Swedes. Holland has. always been a colonizing country, and nttcstatlon of this is to be found in tho city of New York. Belgium was not a colonizing country until recently, and when tho two wero nssoclated together the Bel gian provinces of Holland contributed but few colonizers. Thero have been many immigrants, from Switzerland; thero have been no Swiss colonies. Tho Mohammedan Arabs have oxtended their rule; the Mohammedan Turks never have. There have been Greek settlements, but no Greek colonies. Tho Anglo-Saxons, .however, outrank nil others in respect of colonization, the English and Scotch especially. SALARIES OF OPERA SINGERS. JU1110. Nordlcn Tnlks on This Subject In Interesting Manner. From the Philadelphia Times. Mme. Nordlca has given her views re garding the salaries of opera singers In Europe and In this country, and Jus tifies the larger sums demanded nnd paid in tho United States. She says that tho exactions on the nrtlst are greater here than abroad. In Europe three or four operas will be selected for a season, and these only will be given. In New York a nightly change of bill is demanded, with a matinee. You can readily see' how exacting and exhausting Is such a demand. An nr tlst Is virtually a prisoner from tho time he leaves .the ship, which con veys him from the other side of the ocean, until he boards it again on his return. It is true that the season is longer on this sldo of the water than on the other, and herein lies the valuo to the artist who comes here from Europe. Ho has the opportunity of making more money than on the con tinent, although at the same time It Is .true that his expenses are much greater here. In this way It may bo said tho general salaries paid here are in a measure equalized by tho smaller salaries paid In Europe. I may, perhaps, bo permitted to give you an instance. If I am singing in London, a shilling will pay my cab fare from my hotel to tho opera houso. In New York, say I am stopping at the Savoy; I pay $5 for a carriage to and from the Metropolitan Opera house. Everything else Is in propor tion. You cannot wonder, then, why operatic salaries are higher In tho United States than in Europe. Thero are long distances to travel, frequent rehearsals, and more work to be done in every way. One Is also expected to be proficient In three languages, and the participants are continuously at work. This fact should be taken into serious consideration. Therefore, as I have said, the operatic laborer is well worthy of his hire. Success only comes after years of struggle and hard work, and tho fruits are not always long lived. At the same time, I wish to ay that I am emphatio In my opinion that there should be nn equalization of operatic salaries on a basis of artlstlo merit. AMERICAN PLOUGHS. Now Sold Pretty Much Everywhere nil Over the World. There are in the United States, says the iSun, hundreds of plough factories, including some immense establishments that produce ploughs in great numbers besides various other agricultural im plements. Tho plough has long slnco ceased to he Just a plough thero are made nowadays ploughs especially de signed for the most advantageous cul tivation of all the various crops and for use of all sorts of soils. American ploughs are now made in hundreds of styles there are Blnglo concerns in this country that make fifty styles or more. American ploughs of all kinds are exported in considerable numbers, and they go pretty much everywhere, all over the world. Makers send, of course, to the several countries the ploughs best adapted to their orops and soils. They send some ploughs to Asia, ot which the smallest proportion goes to China; many ploughs to South Ameri ca; not a great many to the Central American countries, and not very many to Mexico, which country, notwith standing its contiguity to the United States, is slowest in taking American ploughs. The ploughs sold there go chiefly to tho larger farmers, the cul tivators with capital. The smaller farmers still stick mostly to the prim itive methods of their fathers, but they, too, are now beginning to buy American ploughs. American ploughs are sold in South Africa and in Australia and in Eu rope; in all the Continental countries, ana in Great Britain as well. They are, of course, not alone in these various fields, they compete everywhere with the ploughs ot Germany and England; finding their way by superiority ot stylo and workmanship and greater adaptability to lequlrements. flonday, New Assortment of Stylish WASH GOODS At Lower Prices Than Ever.
