Many of the elegant sorts will not be

There are no duplicates of these single

Exclusive

We are show Ins this week some

copies of some of his famous street cos

been lost.
A feature that you will notice about
these suits of ours, aside from their
novelty and cheapness, Is the really

lacking in these copies.

do nothing for the trouble.
Within a recent period n remedy

Fin.ST LIEUTENANT DAVIS.
Tirst Lieutenant David J. Davis la
one of the best known and most re
spected officers In tho Thirteenth His
record Is as follows: Private in Com
pany F, January 2, 1891, corporal,
March 10, lS'iG, second lieutenant, Julv
14, 1S0C. H-cond lieutenant United
Sttts Volunteers, May 5 183S. Lieu
tenant Davis Is one of the few lawyer
members of the loglment and It will
be renumbered that he was assistant
city solicitor during the incumbency
of .1. H Toirey, esq He is now ncting
regimental adjutant during the ab
sence of Adlutont L. T. Matte", who
is hom on hick leave, and his pro-
Lmotlon is more than an ordinarily pop
ular one
Lieutenant William S. Treeman suc
ceeds to the place made vacant by the
advancement of Lieutenant Davis. He
has beerr first sergearrt of r for some
time and .t- the senior sergeant of
the entire regiment. He enlisted In the
National Ouard nine years ago as a
member of CompanyD and was trans
ferred with the rank of corporal to F,
with which he hus since been identified
It his record as first sergeant is to be
taken iu a criterion of his future worth
he will be an excellent second lieuten
ant. There Is a notlcible coincidence In
these three promotions in F compnny.
Major Fellows was senior captain In
the reclment Captain Decker, heritor
llrst lieutenant, and Lieutenant Fiee
itian senior sergeant
These promotions have still another
signlllcance. They result, A) to speak,
in turning the regiment upside down.
Till yesterday the order of 4he com
panies according to the rank and seni
ority of their captains was as follows:
rirst battalion 13, C, D, A, Second bat
talion F, II. G, II. The marching or
der was- B. D, A, C, F, G, L H. D
was the color company. Now the or
der, according to the lank and senior
ity of captains will be- First battalion
II. G, n, T. Second battalion 15, C.
D, A, and the marching order will be:
II. E. F. Q, It, n, A, C. E Company
having the honor of bearing the col
or". From this It will be noticed that
what has been the First battalion now
becomes the Second, Major Wood being
senior to Major Fellows These Inver
sions are due to the co-ordination of
rnnk, which Is the very basis of mili
tary life
DEATH OF PRIVATE KIETIf.
The passing away of another mem
ber of the regiment, Private Frank E
Kieth, of Company A, adds one more
name to the list of thohe for whom eter
nal taps have been sounded. The do
ceased was In the prime of manhood,
and was quite a favorite In his com
pany. His quiet demeanor and atten
tion to duty at all times were striking
features of his soldier life. He was a
caipenter by trade. While homo throe
weeks ago ho became a member of the
Simpson Methodist church He was not
long here, however, till Insidious ty
phoid began to make itself felt. The
patient was taken to regimental hos
pital on the 8th, nnd on the 12th had
to be removed to the division hospital,
where the tide of life began to ebb by
degrees It was only a question of
time and of endurance, and, therefore,
from the first the doctors had very
little hope The parents of the de-
ceased were sent for. and remained till
death came.
Colonel H. A. Coursen has gone home
to visit his wife, who Is still berlously
sick
Private Morris Thomas, of C. at
tached to division headquarters as a
mounted orderly, is the possessor of a
beautiful pair of spurs which he prizes
very much. They were presented to him
by Lieutenant Colonel C C. Mattes tho
day he left camp for home.
Acting Quartermaster Sergeant Al
bert Sloane, of A, has teturned from
a seven days' furlough. During his ab
sence his place was filled by Corporal
George Millet.
Private Bairett, of G- Company, left
camp last night for th home of his
parents at Lake View, Susquehanna
county He will be away three days.
Tire wife of Assistant Chief McManus,
of the Scranton fire department, who is
visiting In Harrlsburg, paid a visit to
camp during the week.
PrtvnteH n. J. White and John Battle,
of A Company, ate home on furlough.
Privates William J. Donohue, of Du
shore, Sullivan county, and Frank Will
iams, of Blnghamton, N. Y both mem
beis of Company C, returned to camp
last night after an absence of two
months. They were taken down with
typhoid at Dunn Lorlng, Va.
Friday afternoon Private John Stan
ton, of D, received a telegraphic mes
sage that his mother, Mrs. Stanton, of
Pleasant street, Scranton, was dead.
She was here two weeks ago, having
como on the excursion to visit her son,
and was then In good health. Private
Stanton received the sympathy of his
friends when the sad news reached
him. He left for home yesterday.
Acting ndjutant of tho Second bat
talion, Sergeant Lattlrnor Reese, of F,
and Corporal Chailes Wrlgley, of tho
same company, left for homo on a four
days' furlough this afternoon.

BACK FROM PHILADELPHIA.
General Graham Has Issued Final
Orders for Trip to tho Jubilee.
By Associated Press,
i Camp Meade, Mlddletown, Pa., Oct.
23. Major General Graham returned
this afternoon from Philadelphia and
Immediately Issued final orders for the
movement of the troops to Philadel
phia to take part In the peace Jublleo
procession. He Is much pleased with
the airangements which havo been
made for the care and comfort of his
men, the route of the parade and the
general plarls for tho festivities. Ten
thousand troops w 111 go from here to
the Jubilee and they will start early
Wednesday morning, so that all may
reach the Quaker city before night.
General Graham has ordered an In
vestigation Into the "spread-eagling"
of the three West Virginia privates.
The deposition of Lieutenant Colonel
Moore, who ordered the men punished
for refusing to work, and other officers
of the regiment have been taken, by
Major Brown, Inspector general of the
Second division.
The movement of the corps south will
begin Nov. 10 and General Graham ex
pects to have all tho troops away ten
days later. Governor Bushnell, of Ohio,
will visit the camp tomorrow morning
nnd a review of the Ninth Ohio colored
battalion and Tenth Ohio will be given
In his honor.
The order Issued by the war depart
ment yeHterday to muster out the Four
teenth and Fifteenth Pennsylvania
reglmcntb has not yet reached here.
A riot occurred In Harrlsburg last
night between privates from the Four
teenth Pennsylvania and Two Hundred
and Second New York regiments. The
rioters were arrested and will be given
a hearing In the morning by Mayor
Patterson. Nobody was badly hurt, al
though a Second Tennessee man tried
to ishoot two colored policemen who
were called In to quell the disturbance.
THAT BOY, WHO
SHALL HAVE HIM
Concluded from Page 3.
tlon of young Americans who are hard
ened logues before they are the size
of a man Out of 100 rascals 67 are
beardless boys There are more crim
inal In this class than church mem
bers. Out of 2,250 arrests In New York
in one year, l,0u0 were under 14. In
Kentucky In one year 839 convicts Im
mured were between the aces of 10 to
21. These are appalling facts "
Tho speaker then referred to a re
cent caho In our court where a dozen
boys were arrested for stoning two
men, nnd spoke of the probable ad
vent of the hoodlum to this vicinity
and the fact that no one could have a
fruit tree In the city safe from their
despoiling hands.
The homo should save thee boys
from the trap of the harlot, from the
atmosphere of skepticism. They bhould
be kept for the mother's comfort, the
father's care, tho sifter's love. Tho
church should have tho stalwart sup
port of that boy.
SERMON TO KNIGHTS OF MALTA
Delivered by Rev. Thomas DeGruchy
in Jackson Stieet Church.
The service of last evening nt tho
Jackson Street Baptist church was
specially devoted to the members of
i ure Ancient nnd Illustrious Order
Knights of Malta The two command
I cries on the West Side, Electric City,
j No 177, and Washington, No. 322, at-
lenueei in a rony and uniformed There
were also several members from the
cer.tral city commanderles in attend
ance. The choir sang t-everal special selec
tions. Two laice American flags were
artistically draped about the pulpit.
The pastor, Bev Thomas DeGruchy,
w ho Is a member of the order, preached
a. special termon. In part, It follows
herewith:
I have no time this evening to glvo you
a hlstorv of our noble order; for .since the
year 1018. centuries have rolled away In
which the noble kmshts have pluycd no
small part. In the defence of the faith
which todey Is the Inheritance ot the
nineteenth century . suture tl to say that
theio are few subjects which present so
riih and so varied materials ns th nn.
ne's of tho Knights of St. John. Let me
r.rve you a ,lln pso of tho origin of the
order.
Among tho greit events of European
IhlEtorj, none were for a longer time In
preparation, or moro naturally brought
about than the crusades tint Christianity
from her earlier days, hud teen in Jcru-
' "alcm her Faorenl cradle, it had been In
the past the homo of her ancestors, the
Jews and tho center of their hoblorj ,
und afterwards the tccno of the lite and
death and resurrection of her divine
founder. Jerusalem became nioro and
more tho holy city To go to Jerusalem,
to visit tho Mt of Olives arid Calvarv,
the tomb of Jems was to tho earlier
Christians a divine passion And when,
under Constantlne Christianity had as
cended from the cros,s to the throne, Je
rusalem had fresh attractions for Chris
tian faith and curiosity. Christian tem
ples were erected and surrounded the noly
sepulchre nnd nearly all tho places that
Jesus had consecrated by His presence
,were adorned by churches and chapels,
dedicated lo ills memory ,

Hood's Pills SKSSTSE'"'
At the beginning of the Fifth century,
Judea, overflowed with Christian pil
grims, and around tho tomb of Christ
were heard tho song of thousands In di
vers tongues from nil over tho world, till
ing the city of Jerusalem with praises to
the Lotd.
Hut events soon rendered the pilgrimage
to Jerusalem difficult nnd for somo time
Impossible Judea was Invaded by the
Persians, who captured tho city of Jeru
salem, and for fourteen years tho Chris
tians were the captives of tho enemies of
tho cross of Christ. After these years of
patient enduring, Jerusalem once morp
fell Into tho hands of the Christians who
planted tho banner ot the cross on Mt.
Calvary, and the pilgrimages to Jeru
salem resumed tehlr course. Hut pre
cisely at this epoch there appeared an
enomy far more formidable to the Chris
tians than tho secretaries of Zoroaster.
The Mohammedans sent two generals
to take JerUBolcm. For, to the Mussul
mans also, Jerusalem was a holy city
since thoy claimed that from there Ma
homot ascondtd to heaven. The Beige lust
ed four months, and tho Christians were
forced to surrender to superior force.
How heroic wcro these men, they sur
rendered to Omar, they knelt down with
their faces toward Calvary, and whilst
surrendering their swords they pledgo
themselves to Clod, nnd though defeated,
they pledged their lives to tho defenso of
Christ and Ills cross. Their enemies
showed no mercy to them, thoy were
driven from their own houses and ho
fanatical Mussulman and Saracens robl)d
them of their children nnd led them away
captives, making them their slavus. Troy
cruelly murdered them to suit their own
fancies. And on the site of Templo Solo
mon, they saw orectod the Mosquo of
Omar.
Tho Christians ot Jerusalem soon at
tracted the sympathy of the Christian
world and Charlemagne pitying their hu
mtllatlon and poverty, sent his Christian
alms beyond the seas, to Syria, Kgypt
and to Jerusalem, wherever ho know that
there was a Christian living In poverty
and oppression. On all sides nroso chal
lenges and appeals to tho warlike ardor
of tho faithful. Stories ot dreadful
cruelties reached tho west and seemed to
Inspire them with pity for their unfor
tunate brethren in tho east, and of wrath
against their oppressors. Letters wero
sent in the name of tho church of Jeru
salem to the church urlversal to tako up
arms as soldiers of Christ and to deliver
the Christians from the Insults and ty
rannv of the Infidel.
We havo thus far studied the worthy
spirit of knighthood, is was a spirit thit
soared above all selfishness toward the
Ideal of Christian virtue, and a desire to
keep and protect the faith. A great many
of us have no nelequite Ideas of what
It Is to bocome a kr.lght, we are knightly
on the outside, that Is, wo are recognized,
better as Knights of Malta when wo ap
pear in public decked with the cross, and
In our hands tho sword. That Is about
all some of us l.r.ow of a knight, It having
never dawned on many of us that wo are
made knights first In tho very center
of our being, and that tho spirit of tho
Oospel ot Christ can only make us such
rirst, one should be a Christian nt heart
or play the blackest hypocrisy
A knight wis ever distinguished by his
moral nnd Christian bearing He was a
child of the church, and a child of Cod.
They stood before the world as men that
had pledged their destinies to God. I
press upon you as your brother, to be
come such, and prove by your dally life
those true and high purposes of our or
der. You belorg to the true splrltuil
aristocracy. The Ideals are beforo us.
what are the facts
Brethren be pure of heart and clean of
hands lest you dellle tho holv thing you
nro called to administer within the con
tines of your lodge room. Brethren, be
fearful lest you take the name ot dod in
vain and pollute the very name you have
pledged yourselves to honor and revere.
He faithful to him who Is no longer pros,
ent with you and whose empty rhalr re
minds one of the Chrlt who died for our
sins. Let the principles of our order per
meate our very life, lest heaven bluih
and we deceive ourselves
Our order Is the child of the tempest
and we wero cradled In seas of blood U o
cannot get awav from tho fact, that wo
represent a fighting filth which has been
the most sublime faith on earth. And It
is for us to pattern afti r those noble type
of manhood, men who subdued their pas
sion, and who lived a life of self-denial
and prayer who went foiward In the
de fenco of tho truth as If kings had been
their hired enunts ahev gloried In tha
