Lakewood in the New Jersey pines,
llfty-two miles from New York, com
mands the attention of many Seranton
lans seeking a winter plnce of ho
journ as the most popular, healthful
winter resort In tho North. The cli
mate of Lakewood seldom varies, and
the bracing, pine-laden nlr Is so dry
that cold is scarcely noticed. In fact
Lakewood is a combined winter re
sort for fashion and outdoor spotts,
and for persons affected with lung and
throat troubles. The village has the
finest appointed and largest hotels ex
isting and innumerable high-class
boarding houses, "Whiter at Lakewood
Is like summer at Saratoga. Tho fin
est kind of roads and most romantic
drives are here, and u beautiful lake
skirts the villngo where skating nnd
ice boating form inviting features.
.Lakewood Is reached only by the Cen
tral Railroad of New Jersey, whose
district passenger agent In Scranton Is
J. S. Swisher.
The Civics club will hold Its Ihst
meeting this evening at 8 o'clock. The
following papers will be presented:
"The WorkH of a Civics Club In Scran
ton," "Hlstoilcal Review of Currency
as a Medium of Exchange," "The Cur
rency of the United States," "The He
port of the Indianapolis Monetary Com
mission." The reading of each paper
will be followed by a brief discussion
in which you are Invited to participate.
An evidence of a proper appreciation
of values was given at the Wyoming
avenue lire tho othor night when a
young gentleman was asked to assist
in removing tho most valuable articled
from one of the buildings that were
threatened with destruction by the
fire fiend. The young man responded
readily and started for the building
with tho alacrity of a professional life
saver. The hoarse cries of the firemen
wera mingled with the roar of the puf
fing steamers and wild-eyed men and
women gazed In awe upon the fearful
scene as the crackling, blazing timbers
and crumbling walls fell with a fright
ful crash, sending thousands of bril
liant sparks ot fire shooting heaven
ward like tiny meteors. The rable
skies of night were made lurid by the
awful glare and the scene was suf
ficient to make tho stoutest heart quail.
Hut th'e rescuer hesitated not. With
sot features and firm "bearing he rush
ed Into the threatened building while
the crowd watched anxiously without.
In a few moments tho rescuer return
ed. A smile of triumph was on his
foco and in his arms was a dicsa suit
caso filled with bottled beer!
A reporter assigned to a sttunge
town, with orders to "get news," was
looking about for undertakers, Justices
of the peace and physicians. In the
darkness of a Bide street he dimly wiw
a sign tacked to the side of a house;
"Dr. ."
Tho rest was easy. Tho reporter rang
the door bell, was greeted by u gruft
looklng old gentleman with white
whiskers.
"Good evening, doctor; nny news?"
The white-whiskered num paused,
cleared his mouth of some dark fiuld
before he spoke, and slowly Bald:
"Wall, there's not much I know of.
Hill Jones' horse Is sick nnd Hank
Thompson's grey more bus a bad
spavin"
He was a horse doctor.

RE JFXTED MAN'S REVENGE
Sent His Dot; I'ortli Hcnrlnc n Curd
Denouncing Ills Klviil.
Stan's faithful friend has been put to
many uses, but for novelty In thu mut
ter of making Itself useful the ham-
bone goes to August Yemlnlskl'H
"Tlind."
August and his dog live In Park
Place, and not far from their habita
tion resides George Iiulrns. August
and Oeorgo both ardently loved a fair
neighbor who spelln her name Fella
Noyenskl. August, It appears, was
bested In the light for tho fair Fella,
nnd, so It is hinted In high Hungarian
circles, evoked a terrible scheme for
revenge.
Ho wrote a card setting forth that
his detested rival was this and that,
and that he hnd done so and eo, the
said card being emblazoned In letters
each an Inch long. It was? a little too
tart even for the Sundny papers, but
he was bound to got It before the pub
lie, so he struck on tho novel Idea of
making his dog the medium of publi
cation. Tin card wni hung nbout the dog's
nock, a bell was attached to his collar
und on Sunday, Jan. 30, lust, the ani
mal was turned loose to wander at
will nnd publish broadcast the alleged
bad character and misdoings of Its
master's ilvnl.
It created u big scandal, of course,
and ever since nothing else has been
talked of in the set In which the prin
cipals move.
Iiulrns has retained Attorney George
AV. licale to prosecute Yemlnlskl for
slander. A $3,000 damage suit was In
stituted yesterday, and with It was
filed n declaration setting forth what
Is related above. What the card con
tained was Very interesting, lut on
nccount of lack nf space and some oth
er considerations it l impossible to
print It.

Interesting Social Session nt the
Grlllin Post Rooms.
A very enjoyable camp fire was held
at the close of the regular 'uster of
Lieutenant Ezra S." Griffin x'ost last
evening, nnd tho comrades were re
galed with a luncheon, consisting of
sandwiches, fried oysters, coffee, etc.,
which was furnished by the com
mander, A. li. Stevens, who Is a very
enthusiastic Grand Army man. Mr.
Stevens is serving his second term,
which shows the esteem in which he
is held by tho members ot the post.
After partaking ot tho lunch the post
was entertained by Comrade Fish, who
related his experience in marching
while at the Buffalo encampment. His
story was graphically and ludicrously
told. He was followed by Comrade
Penrce, who gave his experiences as
a rebel prisoner, which was told only
as one can tell it who suffered months
In those prisons. The chaplain, Com
rnde Scott, pang an original produc
tion, "How Morey Led the Band,"
which was the gem of the evening and
was a surprise to the comrade.
Comrade Morey replied to the effort
of the chaplain by 1 elating a drama
In which the chaplain and the Fourth
Iowa cavalry were very conspicuous.
Comrade Scott served three years In
that well-known fighting regiment.
"Tenting Tonight" was sung by the
members of the post, led by Comrade
Wright. One by one the veterans are
passing away, but as the number de
creases those remaining seern to Btand
closet and touch elbows with n stronger
affection it possible than ever.

DISPOSING OF
THE RELIEF FUND
Ordinance Tbct Is Now 011 ll? Way
Through Council.
TUB PROVISIONS IT CONTAINS
Directs That the City Jlcrk Issue 11
Wnrrnnt to tho Treasurer of tho
Hcrnnton fireman's llollof Asso
ciation Tor tho Amount Intended
for tho riromon by the Act nl June,
!i8, IHt(.'--A Councilman's Opinion.
At Thursday night's meeting of
select council the following ordinance
which hns passed the lower branch,
wu received and referred to the fire
department committee for considera
tion: Section 1. lie It ordained by the select
nnd common councils ot the city of
Scranton: That nil such sums of money
as may bo received by tho city treasurer
In accordance with the net of assembly
approved Juno US, ISM, bo nnd Is hereby
declared to bo received for tho benefit
ot tho Scranton Firemen's Relict asso
ciation. See. 2. That tho city treasurer Is here
by directed to inter such sums on the re
ceipt thereof under a special account nnd
to report tho suld amount annually to the
city clerk who Is hereby directed to Issue
a warrant therefor In favor of tho treas
urer of tho Scinnton Firemen's Relief
association immediately after the re
ceipt thereof, and on report to him of the
city tteasurer.
Sec. ". That any ordlnnnco or pait of
ordinniico conflicting with the provisions
of this ordlnnnco bo and tho samo Is
hereby repealed so far us the same ul
fects this ordlnarce.
This Is another attempt to convert
tho money received fiom the foreign
insurance companies of the state for
the ute of tho firemen. A law was
passed by the legislature directing that
the two per cent, paid by foreign in
surance companies on nil business done
In Pennsylvania be turned over to the
various municipalities to create a fund
for the payment of firemen disabled
through services rendered at fires.
Without exception the councllmen of
the city ure warmly In favor of using
the fund for the firemen and for noth
ing else, but It Is seemingly difficult to
get legislation on the subject that will
not run counter to the constitution.
MANY DIFFICULTIES.
In the first place the leglslatuto to
pt event conlllct with the constitution
bad to direct that the money be turned
over to the city, Thete Is nothing di
rectly to indicate that It s-hnll be used
for the firemen. That is known simply
from the intention of the framers of
tho law. The constitution forbids a
municipality from voting money for
anything other than the proper ex
penses of the city government and that
has caused more trouble for those who
want the firemen to get the money the
state legislature Intended they should
have.
The present ordlnnnco some of the
councllmen think Is defective and Ille
gal and It may have a serious time In
getting through select council. One of
them, in conversation with a Tribune
reporter yesterday, said:
"I believe the ordinance is defective
for the reason that it does not say
what the Act of June 28, lS9."i, Is, and
furthermore, it contemplates turning
the money over to the treasurer of the
Scranton Firemen's Relief association
which, as I view the law, cannot he
done and which I believe should not he
done even If It was possible to over
come the legal difficulties.
"That money was Intended for the
firemen nnd they should have It, but It
should be safeguarded iby the city for
those who are entitled to receive It and
should be expended under the super
vision of the city authorities."
With reference to an ordinance which
In many respects seems to be identical
with the present ordinance, the city
solicitor of Allentowu soma time ago
rendered an opinion to thu city con
troller of that city, which In part was
as follows:
ALLENTOWN OPINION.
"Tho only question to be considered
la whether the city has a right, under
Its charter, to appropriate money to
the Allentown Firemen's Relief asso
ciation. It is a well known principal of
municipal law that a city has no pow
ers except such as are expressed In Its
charter, or such as are necessarily Im
plied in order to carry out the object
of its Incorporation.
"The acts of assembly governing
cities of the third class does not con
tain any grant of power which would
authorize a city to appropriate money
to tho Firemen's Belter association. In
fact, If such power were contained in
tho acts of assembly It would avail
nothing.
"The constitution of Pennsylvania,
Article 9, Section 7, provides as follows:
'The general assembly shall not au
thorize any county, city, borough,
township or Incorporated district to be
come a stockholder in any company,
association or corporation or to obtain
or appropriate money for or loan its
credit to any corporation, association,
institution or Individual.' Under this
section the legislature would have no
right to authorize a city to appropriate
money to any corporation or associa
tion. In the case of Wllkes-Barre City
hospital vs. the county of Luzerne, Si
Pennsylvania Stnto Beports, page G5.
The act of the 21st of May, 1874, en
abling a private Incorporated hospital
to make requisition upon a county for
tho payment of Its charges for tho sup
port of patients tinder Its treatment
even though they be paupers, was de
clared to be unconstitutional, since it
was an appropriation of money by the
county to a corporation.
MATTER OF BEOBET.
"I regret that I cannot find any way
to advise you to pay this money to the
Allentown Firemen's Belief associa
tion. Tho objects of the association
are such as appeal to every one's sym
pathies. "The law on the subject Is, however,
very plain and hardly admits of any
discussion. I must therefore advlre
you that you cannot lawfully author
ize the payment of the warrant by
countersigning the same."
In order to get around tho embar
rassing points of the law it was some
months ago proposed to form a fire
men's relief boaid, consisting of two
members from each fire company In
the city, together with the chief of the
fire department, mayor, city treasurer
and city controller. Claims for relief
were to bo reported by the members
from each company and after being
npproved by the board, were to bo pre
sented to councils for passage, as oilier
fire department bills are.

ROENTGEN RAY'S LECTURE
It Clinrmril n Lnrgo Audicnco in the
High School llulldhii;.
A largo audience marvelled and wns
entertained nnd Instructed last night
by a lecture on the Roentgen rays de
livered In the high school auditorium
by Dr. Goodspeed, of tho University of
Pennsylvania. Several qualified per
sons pronounced It the clearest and
most able exposition ot the X-rny
theory and practice they had had, eith
er from printed matter or discourse.
The lecturer was Introduced by ex-City
Solicitor James II. Torrey.
Dr. Goodspeed gave his hearers a
conception of the Roentgen rays by
negative- demonstration by showing
what It was not. The energy created
from un Induction coll, ho described
from an Illustration of tho water pow
er possible fiom a reservoir nt a great
helghth, a. matter of stored power let
loose against non-reslstanee, the less
air and consequently less resistance In
a Crooks tube the greater the rate of
travel of the electric current between
molecules.
An elaborate array of tubes and oth
er X-ray apparatus was used by Dr.
Goodspeed In practical demonstration.
Fotty views were shown by a stereop
tlcon. Many of them were X-rny phot
ographs taken in the Univeislty ot
Pennsylvania hospital. A photograph
of Mr. Torrey's hand was "taken" and
developed In about fifteen minutes and
displayed to tho audience. When Dr.
Goodspeed concluded, the appreciation
of his discourse was shown in n hearty
volume of applause from tho audience.
Tho next lecture of the university
course will be on Feb. 23, when Dr.
Pennimnn will lecture on "Literature
In the Ago of Elizabeth."

sistance. At yesterday's meeting of the poor
board the homo committee wan In
structed to report on a uniform price
o be chnrged for the care of Insane
patients pent to tho Hillside Homo by
other poor districts. Tho matter came
up when the board was considering tne
advisability of receiving Robert
Slaughter, of Honcsdnle, as an insane
patient, tho cost ot his keeping to bo
charged to the Honesdnle poor dis
trict. It was the opinion ot the directors
thnt patients from outside districts
should be charged such a sum us will
recompense this district not only for
thu actual keeping, but also for the
amount of money Invested In the build
ings and expended for repairs, attend
ants, etc. Tho home committee will
report a figure Including everything.
It wns decided .to receive the lloncn
dale patient, the amount to be paid
for him to bo fixed when the home
committee presents Its report.
The bond of George W. Becmer, as
superintendent of the furm, was read
by Secretary Langstaff. It Is In the
sum ot $2,000 and has William Blume
nnd Byron Ackerlj as sureties. The
bond was approved by the board and
ordered filed.
Mr. Beemer's monthly report nliowed
that there were 41!) patients in the
homo on Dec. 31. 1S07, and during the
month of January twenty sane and
fourteen insane were admitted. Four
teen sane and ten Insane patients were
discharged during the month, nnd five
insane and one sane person died. On

colony at home was 432. Or this num
ber 147 are sane males and 52 sane
feinnlcB. The number of Insane males
Is 10S and of Insane females 116.
A number of npplications for relief
were heard by the board. John Simon,
who resides on River street, wns one
of these who appeared before the
board. He Is a gardner but has not had
employment since November. His plea
was real pathetic. He just wanted a
bag of Hour or something that would
help him along for :i llttl while until
he can get employment.
Ho came hero from Luzerne borough
Foven months ago, and is therefore n
chnrge on that district. Director
Terppe was instructed to see that the
man or his wife and their four children
do not suffer for the necessaries of

willing to do for the man.
