The announcement of the death of I ho la to James Jordan, or nlypliunt, noted ill csterday's Tribune, was a surprise to his countlcFH friends thiouglinut the val ley, because It was not generally known that ho was III. Although he had been confined to his loom for several days It was only on AVednrsday thai his condi tion bernme alarming, and no one ex pected a. fatal ending so soon. Mr. Jor- JAMES JOltDAN, dan was essentially a self-made man and ho acquired a fortune by dint of his own industry and self-reliance. He was born in County .Mayo, Ireland, on January 1. l.SCaud came to America, with his parents when he was three years old. He worked several jears on u larm. and for a while had ohargo of a forco of nun during the construction of the Delaware, Lacka wanna and Western railroad and Hie North Branch canal. The death of his uncle, a contractor, eai.sed Ih transter of an Important contract to him and for a time ho followed this branch of linius- Having abandoned centract work he en gaged In tho groci ry and provision busi ness In tho rising village of Olypliant and heto laid the foundations of the phenom enal success that ever after attended him. In this busli.ess his character develojied and his hoi esty and htrict attention to tho detail- of his business soon placed himself among tho foremost merchant In tho valley. His llrst store on upper Dunmore street having become too small for lus expand ing trade he built, in lv. the large brick building on lower Dunmore street In which ho has since done business. llesildcs his mercantile brelness Mr. Jordan va inteiested in many other en terprises. Ho was one of the founders ot tho Mirchants' and .Mechanics' bank of this city. Tor more than twenty e..rs he had been a director and for the past eight years ho was vice president of that In stitution. He was also interested In otner banking institutions, and was prominent ly associated with the Scraiilon Packing company, tho Clark & Snover 'ompativ, the Scranto'i Illuminating, Heat and pow er company and the Kconomy Light, lb-at and Powir company. He w.is president and .principal stockholder of the olyphjnt Water company and also of the Dickson AVnter company. HesldeH thee Intel ets Mr. Jordan owned valuabV real cstale in Olypliant, Strain on and Wllkus-llarre. Thero were few men In the I.acKawanna valley who were better known or nioro generally respected than was Mr. Jordan. Ho was eminently stntlghtfoiward, hon est, conservative In his views and shr. wd and far-seeing in business. Sociably h was warm-hearted, kind and gciurous. In his relations he was affable and cour teous, always mindful of the rights and respects of others. He was deeply re ligious and took a prominent part in the work of tho church at which he wor shipped. His hand and purse were al ways ready at tho command of the deserv ing needy and there nro many who will deplore his untimely death because of charity and assistance unostentatiously given.

BY Secretary of INTUODUCTION'.-lIavlr.g appealed to Caetur Paul must go to Home. In com pany with other prisoners he was deliv ered to 11 centurion and cmburked on a merchantman. I.t.ke, tho historian of apostolic times, nul Arlstarchus, a Mace donian (Acts xlx, LV), accumulated him, as passengers. Tho voyage began pros perously. Sailing northward along tho coast they touched at Myra. a pent of l.yclii In Asia Minor, where they took passage on a csscl loadeel with wheat ami bound for Italy. After leaving that port they encountered heavy winds and were beaten back t,nd foith for several days, obliged at h.st to put Into iilr Havens, a hi.rbor on tho south side of tho lftlnnd of Ciete. Ah tho season was far advanced, a consultation was held, In which Paul participated, to decide wheth er they should winter In these parts. OHKKItFFf A considerable town, named Phoenix, fifty miles to tho west ward on tho Island, was deemed more favorable for both soldiers and sailors. Its harbor was commotlieius, affording cx coMent shelter for vessels In nil weather, a familiar retort for Alexiindilan corn ships. Disregarding Paul's warning (verse 10), It was eleclded to proceed thith er. A south wind sprang up (vere Pi) ro garded by many as a favorable omen. Weighing anchor and hoisting the great main-sail, they passed out of 1'air Havens Into the. sea. Thence they sailed along the shore for several miles to Cape MtI 11I11, then tacked, and tho vessel's prow was turned proudly towarel the proposed haven. Kvery heart on board was cheered by the delightful profpect, expect ing In u few hours to cast anchor In Port Phoenix. HBId'UBSS. Alas, Ifor human plans and hopes! The gentle breathing of the i-oiith wind In the sails and cordage was but a slri'ii song luring 011 to destruction. As the vessel pansed the hcad-lanl and looked out to sci she was truck by a tempestuous typhoon common In those latitudes. (Mark lv, 37). A little dlstanco from the shore was a range of high hills, a brooding place for storms. (Verse II). An east-northeaster, encountering tho balmy breeze from the south, produced a whirling blast. Seized by this the wheat vessel was practically helpless. The sail ors wcio unable to keep her up Into the wind. (Verse l.'il. For a time all were nt the mercy of the storm. Driven madly before the i;ale the ship plowed her way through the surging waters. FICAUI'TI.. Tho situation soon became perilous In the extreme, and all on board were filled with fear. Tho vessel might spring a lcik and fonider In mlel-ocean, or terment will bo made at tho Forest Hill cemetery. ON TO VICTORY. Kvcry Indication points to a rousing Ilepubllean victory for the entire ticket next Tuesday. Tho party's lighting blood is up nt last and that portends a Waterloo for tho enemy, lint no Individual Ilepubllean should relax his efforts. This Is the chance of a llfo time to rivet and clinch He pnhllcan supremacy In onco Demo cratic Lackawanna. AV0CA SILK MILL TROUBLE. Owner Ashley Says no .More Orders Will be Filled. The strike and disorder at the Avoca silk mill early In the week Is quite like ly to result In a permanent closing of the mill. Such Is the substnnce of a statement made by AVllllam II. Ashley, one of the owners, for publication In tho Tribune. Mr. Ashley says that customers of the mill have been notified to semi tlv-lr orders elsewhere. As the mill owners operate a plant at Hncketts town. It Is poftlblo that their future orders will be supplied trom that place. The complete statement of Mr. Ash ley to The Tribune was made over hi" own signature as follows: The Aocsi silk mill began operations March 10, ISflfi, ami within two weeks orders ceased to come in when we were obliged to take silk from the Patterson mills nnd for a month n-lther mills had over two full days work. This state of affairs continued until April, 157. when trade revived and we were kept quite buy. "Last Monday about 100 operators left the mill and gave no reason for so doing. The same evening ft demand was made by a few of them for an ad vance. On Tuesday girls whose char acter was above reproach were ns sriu'.tcd and abused In such a manner as to make the most hardened shud der, to think what little meaning there Is In 'Free America." "We wero hemmed In by several hundred of the strikers and miners. Vo had men In the mill well armed and men who had children nt work and were capable of protecting them and it was by haul work that they wero persuaded to remain In tho mill until the mob had become BUfllelently calm. On AVednesday we were forced to seek protection and consulted an nt tonicy. 'Tho wages paid are tho same paid by Scranton mills to operators who have Imd years of oxpetlence while th"sp In the Avoca mill havo had but one year's experience. A'o ran the mill at if great loss for thirteen months and during the seven remaining months we have made some money. If we did not mako money what prospect weu'ild bond holders ever havo ot get ting their bonds paid? "The statement that the mill Is Idlo Is false AVo have run the mill every day this week. AVo have acted fair with our help nnd have done what wo could for their Interests. It was our Intention to build nn addition to the mill so an to give employment to alt who made application. A'o havo no ambition In that direction now. Tues days nlght'B demonstration Fettled that question. "V have no assurance now that even If all hands weie at work that we could employ them, us we have notified ertir customers to bend orders else whero and now It Is doubtless If we can revoke these orders."

Fortunately, they were able to run tinier tho le. of Cliiudu (verse ll, a small Island off tho coasi of Crete. Taking advantage of tho smoother water for a few milts tho small boat was with some dlllleiilty hauled on deck. As 11 further precaution tlio ship was underglrded by passing cables or lnrge ropes under tho keel and over the gunwales (verse- 1"), nnel then elriiwing them tight by means of pullles nnd levers. In h'.H way the vessel was greatly strengthened, prepared to nuet the tre memlous strain on her planks and tim bers. ANXIOFS. Having made all ns snug as clrcumstainvs permitted there was noth ing that could be done except to let tho vessel drift. So the miserable clay wore away, and nil through the follow lug night tho storm raged. The second flay and nlsht, und the third elay and night came and went with no abatement In the tempest. (Verses IS und 19). Whatever could be spared was cast Into the deep to lighten the ship, until she became a leaky, dismantle d hulk, swept from stem to stem by dashing waves.

And he had good reason also to believe that his own work was tint yet done, that he must sec the Imperial City.

After dajs of such earn est waiting the answer came (verso 1M) and l'aul came forth and stood in the midst, henceforth the master spirit of tlio ship.

This was followed by nn exhortation to be of good cheer, und a promise that no Hie should be lost. (Verse I!.').

Thero are three points of Instruction In the lesson; 1. See the folly of ungodly men. He-Jectlng the coun sel of Christians they frequently pursue a course which Is bright and cheerful at the beginning, but which leaves them help less, fearful, anxious and hopeless at the end. 2. See the opportunity of a Oodly man. When compelled by asoc'ates lo ente r a way wh!ii Is not approved, and ffterwaitl overtaken by misfortune he may rdv upon ("bid for ebdlvernnee, and he may berrvme a saviour of ether.
