The change that has been wrought In the house since Inst Saturday night, when It closed Is marvelous. All of tho scats on the llrst floor were re moved, as well as the floor beneath them and the theater was divided so ns to provide a curio hall S7x60 feet in sire.

In tho theater there will be seats for 200 on the first floor. The balcony will seat ns many more and will have standing room for 150.

WILKES-BARRG EMPLOYES ON HAND Tho l'irm l'urnlslied Them n Spoclnl Trnln to nnd from WiiUes-Unrro. Over 12,000 Persons Looked tho .Store Over nnd Mnrvellcd nt Its Completeness ntid Lxtcnt - I'loor Spnco oT I'lve Acres Contains 9300,000 Worth ofGouds. Tho opening of the new and mam moth department Btore of Jouns Long's Sons was awaited with a great deal of Interest for weeks, and last night the event occurred. At 7 o'clock the doors were opened nnd constant streams of people passed In and out of the Lacka wanna nnd Wyoming avenue entrances for several hours. It was estimated that over 12,000 persons Inspected the big establishment. A special train of eight cars biought .115 clerks of the Ilrm's Wllkes-Harre store to Scranton and there wero In ad dition us many visitors from tho latter city. No goods were sold during the evening, nlthough this morning the store will be opened for business. A unique feature in connection with the opening nnd one Immensely en Joyed by tho seventy or more persons privileged to participate In It, was the Inspection of tho place by tho news paper men of all the towns from Cnr bondale to Wllkes-Harre and the ex cellently prepared wine dinner that was served for them In the store's restau rant. The large party began its In spection on the fourth, or upper floor, about G.30 o'clock. The six members of the firm combined the otllces of guides and hosts. When tho basement was reached soon after G o'clock, tables wero found ar ranged In .square banquet form and i'io discussion of the dinner begun. T.ie menu Included blue points, celery, olives, quail, Saratoga chips, chicken salad, confectionery, coffee and Mumm's. This event was of a ban quet nature and was under the presid ing offices of Chailes J. Long, the senior of the six brothers. GIFT FHOM EMPLOYES. The company had not been long seated when a clerk appeared bearing an immense floral anchor, the firm's Insignia, on a floral base. Hoses large ly composed the elaborate design. J. C. Hawthorne, superintendent of tho Wllkes-Harre store, presented the piece to the firm on behalf o the Wllkes- Harre clerks, and Charles J. Long for the firm acknowledged tho token. After the meal had been finished there was a period of speech-making, during which C. Hen Johnson, Dr. F. C. Johnson, of the Wllkes-Harre Hec oid; H. II. Pratt, of the Truth; R. M. Scranton, of the Republican; Llvy S. Richard, of Tho Tribune; J. T. Rich ards, an executor of the Handley es tate, which owns the building, and Ar chitect L. C. Holden, who planned it. congratulated Scianton and the Longs on a venture of magnitude which would prove of mutual ndvantage. Toasts were drunk to the firm, the architect, the builder, Conrad Sehroeder; "tho gay old boy," John Henore, nnd the Hnndley executois. A flash-light pho tograph of the company ended the af fair. The doors were opened fo the public about the time the dinner was ended and In a few moments hundreds of per sons wero on each of the five floors and ndmliing the modern ntrange lnonts and extensive stock ot goods. Itauer's band wns located on the sec ond floor nnd played during the even ing, tho open areaway from the lower floor to the roof permitting a spread of the sound to every iloor. What goods the store contains nnd how they are displayed will lie ascer tained by ScrantonHns through person al visits, but The Tribune considers It not nmlss to present some facts about the firm and the building and Its ar rangements. Tho six Long brothers, or, Jonas Long's sons, as they are bet ter known, are. In the order of sen iority: Charles J., Rernnrd, Inils, Arthur, Edward und Harry. Their father was probably the most bucccss ful nnd one of tho most hlglilv respected retail merchants In the Lackawanna, Wyoming and Lehigh valleys and his foresicht, business sagacity nnd strict integrity, qualifi cations which any successful man must posso, have been Inherited by his sons. Theirs has lor years been the laiges-'t department store In Wllkes Harre. The opportunity was offered them to acquire a long-term lease on a building to be erected bv the Hundley executors In n larger and glowing city and they did not hesitate to make the venture. IJIO FLOOR SPACE. An Idea of the magnltudo of the es tablishment may be gleaned from the fact that Its floor spnee If spiead over one surface would cover five acres, as much as would bo occupied by C! stores of tho averauo slzo now located on Lackawanna nvenue. It requites near ly 123 Incandescent arc lights and 700 Incnndescents of lC-candle power to light the building. On tho five floois nro $300,000 worth of goods on sale. This big sum does not Include show cases, shelving, appliances or stoic fur niture nml furnishings. The store's own electric and power plant Is now being erected lu the tear and will contain innch'Inery for running the ele vators and the pneumatic cash system and lighting the place. It will require about IU0 employes to conduct the business. This fnct can not be realized from an oxteilor view of the building or a visit to the street floor but nfter one has made an In spection from roof to basement and ob served the army of salespeople, ofllce employes, huyers.heads of departments and shipping and trnnsfer employes, the number necessnry to operate such 11 business will be appreciated. For if omplo.es, the firm has no rules oth er than the most ordinary kind, pie fering to employ only such people us can be left, to their own honor and common sense. This liberality and wisdom Is appreciated In tho Wllkes Uarro storo as uttested by the esteem In which the six brothers are held by their employes In their native city. Newspaper snace does not permit mention, even -In a general way, of tho goods on snle. Someone asked of Mr. Arthur Long lust evening: "You don't sell locomntUes or telephones do you?" "Wo haven't any In stock," wns tho reply, "but we can get them fur you." This little scrap of conversation Indi cates tho great variety of goods tho btore contains, groceries, smoked meats, furniture, wall paper, carpets, bedding, crockery, toilet articles mll llnerv g&ods, books, toys, fchoes and en on, ad lib. and in nover-endlng vailety. DEPARTMENT SYSTEM, Euch' department Is a btoro In Itself nnd hew a hend who Is responsible to tho firm for r.ntlsfactlonu to patrons nrd profit. The millinery department, for Instance, represents In value, ap pointment, quantity ot slock and ex tent an average city millinery Btore. Tho same Is true of the cloak, shoe, grocery or any other depaitment that might be designated. Any department Is very accessible from the fact that the building does not contain 11 par tition nor a counter except near its four walls, Goods near the center ot any floor are displayed In show cases or arc contained on racks. FOR A NATIONAL UNIVERSITY. Kllbrts Itoing IHndo to Cnrry Out Gcnrgo Wnslilnqton's Idcn. Few people probably nro aware of the amount of work that has been done toward realizing George Washington's Idea ot a great national university of tho United States. For years he talked nnd wrote about It, and nt his death, bequeathed $23,000 ns a first endow ment. But in spite of the recognized need of such an Institution, more than a century has gone by without seeing It established. Tho plan has had the endorsement ot mnny of tho presidents since Wash ington's time. John Hoyt several years ago presented a memorial In regnrd to a national university to the senate, and explulned what had been done to ward establishes such a university. In this document he shows that a great and true university is the leading want ot America, that Its realization should now be possible, that the hindrances of thq early years had almost dtsnp peaied. At tho last session of congiess the committee to establish tho univer sity of the United States, at whose re quest Hon. John W. Hoyt's memorial was presented, brought In their report recommending the passage of the bill providing for the establishment of a university. This report, No. 420, covers about one hundred and fifty pages and contains Information that will be of the great est Interest to those who wish to go Into the details of the plan. In order to further the work, a national uni versity committee of 0110 hundred has been appointed nnd local Georgp Wash ington memorial committees are being formed. Mrs. Ellen Rlchardson.Copley Square, Hoston, Mass., Is tho national chair man; vice-chairman for Pennsylvania, Mrs. William T. Carter, 211C Walnut street, Philadelphia. Mrs. GIrard S. Mend, C4.1 Market street, has been ap pointed chairman of the Scranton work and is now trying to Interest nil or ganizations, associations, clubs, schools and colleges. It is believed that from all over the country, small and lnrgo sums will come from contributors for the George Washington memorial certificates beau tifully ensraved and bearing a cut of George Washington, signed by chair man of central and state committees and their secretaries and treasurers, will be given to every contributor as a beautiful souvenir of their contri butions. Each certificate will have a coupon attached, which will bo de tached and forwarded to Chief Justice Fuller, LL. D of th" United States Supreme court, for filing in the new building when finished, making a per manent record of every given name, and the sum given by each. The cer tificates will bo ready for distribution at the December meetings. RYAN MAKES A KICK. Snys He n Trcntcil Uulnirly in His limit with Judge. The complaint In an evening paper ot Tommy Ryan, who wan defeated by Jimmy Judge In Thuisdny night's box ing contest, conies with very poor taste from one who was as cleat ly whipped ns wns Ryan. Those who wit nessed the bout know that ut least three and possibly four times the gong spoiled Judge's chnnces of sending Ryan to dopelnnd. Ryan alleges that Referee Ed. Cole man permitted JudGe to hit In the clinches. Theie rever was a contest when an agreement not to hit with ono arm free was not broken. Judge broke It Thursdny night that Is admitted nnd so dlil Ryan, but In the case of the former the damage was always done when the men were closing nnd not after they had clinched. That Ryan Is n good, clever man cannot be questioned, but he wns against a bet ter one Thursday night, and under these circumstances his criticism of so good nnd honest a leferee ns Coleman huits the complainant nnd does no hann to the latter. Allowing a reasonable time for Ryan to secure forfeit money his willingness to meet Judge again cunuot be denied. He has been In the business long enough to know, however, that a chal lenge without the collateral Is bom bast nnd unless he posts a reasonable sum within one week he will be Judged ns one who was whipped and doesn't wish to be temfnded of It.

SOME LABOR LEADERS OPPOSE HIM Among Those Is Sccrotnry-Trcnsurcr Hnycs, of tho Knights ot Lnbor. Alleged That tho American Feder ation of'I.nbor Will Oiler No Oppo sition to the Noted Lender--JIucli ni'tlio Fight Is Snid to lio on Per sonal Grounds. The friends of Commissioner Powd er! y of tho immigration bureau are preparing, In Washington, for any fight which may be made on his con firmation by the senate. They confi dently predict thnt the fight will not bo successful, nlthough they admit that a number of Influential labor lenders throughout the country oppose Ills con firmation. Among these Is J. W. Ilnyes, tho secietary-treasurtr of tho Knights of Labor. It Is claimed that no op position will be mndo by the officials of the American Federation of Labor. H Is alleged by Mr. Powderly'fl friends that the fight by Mr. Hayea nnd others Is on personal grounds. Theie has been some talk that the Knights of Labor would relnx their opposition provided C. J. Corey should be uppointed chief of the bureau ot en KinvliiK nnd printing, but there ap peals to be n ground for such u deal, und nobody able .to confirm It. As a matter of fact, It Is authorita tively stated that Mr. Corey linn with drawn tho application filed at the treasury for appointment. While there lius long been talk about a chnnge In the management of the bureau nothing has been decided upon, and there will probably not be for a long time. Mr. Johnson, the present Incumbent, Is protected by the civil service law, and his work so far has been satisfactory. Any change made In the office would be by the secre tary of the treasuiy nnd not by the president, ns Is generally supposed. A Washington dispatch In yester day's Philadelphia Press confirms the etibstanco of the foregoing that the opposition to Mr. Powderly's confirma tlon will amount to nothing and says: "Mr. Powdeily has been In office a sufficient time to demonstrate his fit ness for the place. Ills administration promises to be unusually strict nnd with a view to the full enforcement of the laws as they now stand." Coal--Coal--Coul.
