AVhnt threatened 1" bo a disastrous lire nt the South mill of tho Lackawan na Iron and Steel company occurred curly Saturday morning. It wua in tho roof of the mill. The structure was damaged to tho extent of about $5,000. After the nrrlv.il of the district lire companies special alarms were bound ed bringing to the scene extra com panies from nil parts of tho city, tho northern section excepted. The lit p wus- discovered about ." oVlock In u tool box near the roll turners' shanty. A spark, from a lint saw Is supposed to have caused tho blaze. An nlnriii was quickly spread uinoiiR tho mill hands but while they woro getting hose connected with the hydrants tho flames run to the roof. Oil and dust made material to the fire's liking and in a few minutes the flames extended up one side ot the big structure to the roof and thence to its peak from which they spread for quite it distance north ami south. The flames burned fiercely and it was real ized that tho mill force was Insuf ficient to conquer them although ten streams of water were in service. A city alarm was turned In. Chief Iliekey responded with the district companies. He gave hurried direc tions for the use of the added hose brought by the department nnd sum moned by special signals companies from outside the district. The large force finally on the scene was able to cheek the progress of tho flames and, nfter an hour's work to wholly quench them, taps being sounded at 7 o'clock. Considering tho large area of the roof, only a small part comparatively was ruined. The damage was con fined to tho space beneath the ridge nnd along the course of the flames ftnm the shanty. The main beams and other heavy pnrts of the structural work were not much Injured. The litter and confusion caused by tho fire prevented work at the mill during Saturday and yesterday, al though no damage other than that of the most trivial character was sustain ed by the mnehlnery. Operations at the mill will be resumed this morning. It Is expected that the repairs to tho roof will be finished by the end of the week. General Manager Wchrum Is anxi ous to have the work pushed as rap idly us possible so that the mill can resume. The North mill will com mence rail making again Wednesday, working single turn, and the blast fur nace, which has been banked for a few weeks, will be blown In today. The "old mill" has been working for some, time. PARKE IS IN PORTO RICO. He Did Not Return with the Gover nor's Troop. W. G. Parke, of North Adams ave nue, wns a very much disappointed man Saturday. His son, Norman Parke, Is it member of the Governor's troop of Harrlsburg, which arrived in New York Saturday from Porto Rico on the transport Mississippi, and Mr. Parke went down to meet him. After the troop disembarked he learned that his son Is stll! in Porto ltlco. A signal honor was given young I'urke in Porto Rico by General Miles who selected him ns mounted orderly for Colonel Castelman, of tho First Kentucky Infantry. This ucllon de tached him from the Governor's troop and it may be some time before he will return to the states. Parke is now with Colonel Castle man at San Juan. Charles Post, of Montrose, who wns also a member of the Governor's troop, returned on tho Mississippi as did Lay ton Shack, of Battery 15. light artil lery, of which he Is a corporal. Both ara enjoying excellent health. Norman Parke's dog "Juck," which lias been with him ever since he left home, returned to New York with the troop and was brought back to this city b Mr. Parke.

GIFFIN HOME FROM HIS VACATION FIBST SERMON SINCE RETURN PREACHED LAST NIGHT. Large Congregation nt Elm Pnrk Church "No More Sen" was Dr. Qlmn's Sermon Topic He Admit ted Ho Wns a Poor Sailor nnd Declared He Had no Views in Com mon with Thoflo Who Saw Only Beauty in the Ocean It Suggest ed Many Unplensnnt Things. Rev. Dr. C. M. (Minn, p.iBtor of Kim Pnrk church, returned from Europe last week, and last night preached his first sermon since his return. At the morning service holy communion wns administered and no sermon wus deliv ered. Dr. Glllln, though thinner thnn beforo he began his vacation, appeared to have been much benefitted by It. Ills stay ncross the water has given him new vigor and a glow of countenance that he did not possess beforo leaving Scranton. Last night's congregation was a large one. The sermon topic was "No More Sea." It was based upon Revelations, xl:l, 'And there was no more sea." Dr. Glllln did not have to mention the fact that the t.-xt, hla subject and Its matter were suggested by ocean voy- nge. He did admit that he was a poor sailor. He granted the existence of certain benefits nnd beauties of the deep but reminded his henrcts of many of the ocean's drawbacks. Dr. Ollfln confessed to the necessity of the sea according to the present geo graphical and physlca' mako-up of the globe. Its beauty and to the service it renders bordering countries nnd conti nents. In commenting upon how the sea had encouraged tho development of the peoples about It and had then been associated In tho shattering of its ben eficiaries, ho cited Spain. Ills hearers nppi eclated Ills humor lr. granting Spain "tho greatest navy on earth, but a submarine navy," as he immedi ately explained. IT JH A TEMPTER. The ocean's voyage was here shown: Once it hud templed and still tempts the bravery of men. Without the dar ing required to make use of It Spain would never have ucqulrcd its once great empire. But on tho ocean had come the final undoing of the once great power. In the sea's favor It can bo said, It protects weak nations. Tills wns Il lustrated early In the history of the I'nlted States when the republic could never have been but for Its isolation from the parent land. The time was coming. Dr. Glflln said, when the Iso lation feature would cease to exist, here and elsewhere. He asked a na tive German recently If the la'tter was not sick of Ills country's massive, sol diery. "Not with such neighbors," was the reply. The United States must learn the same lesson after the trans Siberian railway is built and before Retiring Straits are bridged. The advantages of the sea, ho said, had been appreciated by Great Brit ain and through this appreciation tho British had become the greatest power on the globe. Its advantages should not. however, obscure the profits that would come with Its abolition. The seer of the text had not written "no more 'water'." Be tween water and sea there wns a dis tinction nnd a difference. The speaker risked his voyages and went aboard ship for only the reason that he went nbrond. There was a great variety of Inter pretation placed upon the words of the text. According to the commentaries there will be no more sea because loco motion will cease, becauso the earth will be consumed by lire, because It will bo providentially abolished for the comfort of Inland people, because there Is no sea In paradise and so will be none In the new world here. When doctors disagree tho patient can take his choice. For the speaker, he was sat isfied with the biblical authority's simple statement that there will be no more sea. ' SKA IS A BLANK. The sea Is a blank while one Is on It, he said, because It Interrupts the course of one's career duting passage. It Is monotonous, tiresome and has no last ing charm for those who for any length of time have to endure tho dash and splash that the poets sing about. There is no ennui in the eternul world and should be none here. While perpetuity is a part of perfec tion, the sea is something enclosed and which comes to an end. It suggests a painrui sense ot uepenuence ror a sup ply of feathers, plumes, diamonds, fruits, condiments, potatoes and the wsien k S you can shake tho Ague by using AYBR'S AGUE Cl'HE. It is tho one certain and infallible euro for that depleting disease. It has been tried in many countries and under various conditions, and has never been known to fail. An old veteran writes: "You may be Interested to know my ex perience many years ago with Ayer's Ague (lure. The year before the war 1 was in Kansas. Some twenty of us wero engaged in farming, and suddenly all were taken with fever and ague. We tried nlmoat everything without getting any help, till at last I sent to the city and procured a bottle of Ayer's Ague Cure. I recovered at once. The others fol lowed my example, and they, too, recovered. Kvery one in camp took the remedy and was cured by it. I went all through the war, have lived in thirteen different states of the I'nion, and have never had the aguo since." 0. U. SMITH, St. Augustine, Fla. There's only one thing to got for ague: cei AVER'S Ague twto m 011 INTENSE SUFFERING. From Dyspepsia aud Stomach Trouble. Instantly Relieved and Permanently Cured by Stuart's Dyhpepsln Tablets. A New Discovery, But Not n Patent Medicine. Dr. Redwoll relates an Interesting account, of what he considers a re nmrkublo cure of ncutp stomach trouble nnd throttles dyspepsia by the tire of tho new discovery, Stuart's Dys pepsia Tablets. Ho says: The patient was n man who had suffered to my knowledge for years with dyspepsia. Everything he ate seemed to sour nnd create acid nnd gases In tho stomach; he had pains like rheumatism In the back, shoulder blndes and limbs, fullness nnd distress nfter eating, poor appetite and loss of flesh; the hinrt became affect ed, cnuslng palpitation nnd sleepless ness at night. 1 gave him powerful nerve tonics and blood remedies, but to no purpose. As an experiment I finally bought a fifty cent package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at a drug store and gave them to him. Almost immediate relief was given nnd nfter he had used four boxes ho was to nil appearances fully cured. There was no more acidity or sour watery lislngs, no bloating after meals, the appetite was vigorous and he has gained between 10 nnd 12 pounds in weight of solid, healthy Itesh, Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are advertised and sold In drug stores yet 1 consider them a most valuable addition to any physician's line of rem edies, ns they are perfectly harmless and can be given to children or In valids or In any condition of the stomnch with perfect safety, being hnvinlesa and containing nothing but vegetable aud fruit essences, pure pep sin and Golden Seal. Without any question they nre the safest, most effective cure for Indiges tion, biliousness, constipation and all derangements of the stomach however slight or severe. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets aro made by the Stuart Co., of Marshall, Mich., and sold by druggists oierywhere at fifty cents pr package. Little book on stomach diseases milled free, address Stuart Co., Mar shall, Mich. like from other countries but which we could do without. While the pea enriches us. It en dangers us; not from quarantine, but from an Influx of an antl-Hlble, dis orderly, agitating hordes of undesirable people. Ho came from Europe once on a steamer which carried 420 cabin pas sengers and 1,200 steerage. The com parison was true of almost every land ing. The result would bo a time nnd a condition when the Atlantic nnd tho Pacific would be accursed for their aid in polluting the country's Institutions. They would then be the real "black waters" told of In legend. The sea Is too suggestive of change. It Is two-handed. It tears down as It builds up. Ho would rather feel the stability of terra flnnu between him and a dear one In Snn Francisco than the turbulency of deceitful waters sep arating him from one just as dear at Liverpool. Its greediness would never be known until there came an account ing of the ships, treasure and life that had disappeared Into Its cavernous maw. The world would rejoice when there would be "no more sea." Then there would be no uncertainty, no deceit, no doubting, no greed, no division of sect or kin. SECOND BUSH MEETING. African M. E. Church Holds Ser vices at the Park. Another bush meeting was held at Nay Aug park yesterday afternoon un der tho auspices of the Howard Place African Methodist Episcopal church. The attendance was much larger than on the previous Sundny, many colored people from a distance being among the worshippers. Hev. II. A. Grant, pastor of the church, conducted the meeting. He preached on "Atonement," taking for his text John 1:7: "And the blood of Jesus Christ, the Son, cleanses us from all sin.' The venerable "Father" Nel son led In the opening and closing prayers and Jeremiah I.ogan, an equal ly well known colored patriarch, made a brlet but eloquent exhortation. The tinging was ot the usually excellent order. - PORTER RESIDENCE ENTERED. Thieves Invaded it Some Time After Saturday at Noon.

Possibly tonight and certainly to morrow night It will be known whether the boxing contest between Jim Judge and "Mysterious Hilly" Smith will bo decided In this city or elsewhere. Officials of the American Sporting club want to secure the bout for Scran ton and Judge, naturnlly, Is anxious to box here. Smith, however, has In sisted on a guarantee of $1,000 for the winner. This Is to be In addition to the side wager of $1,000, making a to tal of at least $2,000 to the winner. A thousand dollars guaranteed to the winner means $250 to the loser, or $1,250 that the club will have to pro vide, not considering the many Items which make quite a large expense aside from tho guarantee. In order to assure Itself of at least the greater part of the guarantee the club on Saturday began a canvas among the best known local admirers of boxing to determine the number of tickets that could be sold at $5 each. The result has thus far been gratify ing. It is believed that within the next 38 hours enough pledges will be se cured to warrant In closing the match for Monday night, September 26, at Music hall. While the tickets at $. each might not equal $1,000 the tiub Is willing to take the chance of coming out even by the sale of tickets at $2 and $3. If this plan prevails the first few rows of chairs will be reserved for the $." sub scribers. The remaining seats on the lower floor would be sold for $3 and the balcony Feats at $2 each. It Is known here that Smith Is taking no chance on a failure in the negotia tions. He Is keeping In good trim for the bout and will be trained to the minute. Judge has been training for several days. Hobby Dobbs, who Is to moot Hilly Ernut In Hrooklyn two weeks hence, will be here tomorrow or "Wednesday to train with Judge. LEG BADLY BRUISED. Conductor Injured When Starting on His First Trip.
