FUNERAL OP MARTIN CAREY.
The many friends and acquaintances
of the late Martin Carey gathered at
the lesldence, 423 North Main avenue,
at an early hour yesterday morning and
viewed the remains. Shortly before 9
o'clock the remains, followed by a large
cortege, were borne to St. Patrick's
chinch, where a solemn high, mass of
requiem was celebrated by Rev. James
A. Moflltt, of St. John's church, South
Scranton, und was as-slsted by Rev. J.
B. Wholan, deacon; ltev. AA A. Nealon,
sub-deacon, and Hev. D. A. Dunne,
master of ceienionlcs. Other divines in
the sanctuary weie ltev. A. T. Brod
crlcl;. of St. Patrick's, and Rev. J. J.
Healey, of Pleasant Mount.
The funeral sermon was pleached by
Rev. J. B. AVhelnn, lector of St. Pat
rick's church, mid it was an eloquent
effort. The text was taken from the
gospel of St. John, xl., 25-20: "He that
belloveth In Me, although ho be dead,
shall live; and every one that liveth,
and belleveth in me, shall not die for
ever." The speaker then cited several
biblical Instances which conoborated
this and held out the consolation to
the near and dear ones of the deceased
that the separation was but tempor
al y. There could be no doubt that the
life of the deceased was founded upon
ii faith and trust of such a future and
where such faith had existed, peaceful
was the departure. How much happier
and surer was the meeting of loved
ones who should follow In his foot
steps. At the conclusion of the services the
remains were borne to the Hyde Paik
Catholic cemetery, where they were
laid at rest. Rev. J. A. Moflltt pro
nounced the benediction, assisted by
Rev. AA'. A. Nealon. The acting pall
bearers were: Mr. "Welsenfluh, Mr.
Long, Mr. Burns, Mr. Leo, Mr. Loner

Young Men'n Reading Room.
Editor of Tho Tribune.
Sir: A movement has been begun by
soveral of the young men of Dunmoro
to start a public reading room for men
and boys, which shall bo open every even
ing except Sunday There can bo no
doubt concerning tho need of such a
place. That Burgess Powell should tuko
steps to dlsperso tho crowds of idleis
who havo been nccustomed to gather
about tho comers night after night for
years, Is a move In tho right direction:
but It behooves oui citizens to do what
tho law cannot do, or Is not likely to do,
and to provldo somo place ot innocent
amusement and recreation for multi
tudes of thoso who spend their days
shut up In shops or far beneath tho tiur
fuco In the mines.
The purposo of tho young men who aro
moving In the direction of establishment
of this reading room Is to furnish tho
upper rooms over the storo of Messrs.
Smith Bros., on Chestnut street. Tho
uso of this building has been kindly
granted rent freo, nnd is most favorably
located. The young men descrvo help,
and anyone who Is disposed to nelp them
should communlcato with Charles 11,
Smith, Chestnut street. A meeting for
organization and election of olhccrs will
be held on Monday evening noxt at 7
o'clock at Smith Bros', store.
