WHAT WILL THE BOABD DO?
Action in Coming Campaign Will So
Outlined Monday Night.
Tho approaching; city election, pnr
tlculiitly the mayoralty contest, has
not by any means hcen overlooked by
tho board of triulo. Since John M.
Keinmerer addressed the board to the
effect that Hcranton'a next mayor
nhould be n man nnd not a mouse, tht
members have discussed tho mutter
generally. Tho result la a lonff and
c.ncfully prepared report which the
committee on legislation and taxes
will present at next Mondny night's
regular meeting. Tho report Is now Ir.
the hands of iho KCerelary.
A paragraph In Mr. Kenunerci's let
ter was as follows: "Wc must elect
a mayor out of politics, without ex
pense (tho salary belongs to him fot
his services) and without promise.
This Is not politics but business."
There Is no Indication that thot board
Is a unit on tho non-partisan propo
sition though that element predomi
natesfor theio ate In tho board too
many stalwarts, Democratic und Re
publican, for that, but tho sentiment
Is fo sttotiK for cleaner city govern
ment nnd municipal lefoim that tho
boatd Is bound to tako some radical
action.
In connection with the nmyoinlty the
report will contain some Interesting
statistics and comment on election
contests and their cost In Lackawanna
county. Knr obvious reasons, permis
sion to loveul the contents of the re
port was denied Tho Tribune, one of
whoso rcpoitcrs examined It yestcuhiy,
but it inn bo correctly stated th.it Its
contents will cause lively discussion.

LARGE AUDIENCE
HEARS DR. CQiWELL
PHILADELPHIA DIVINE LEC
TURES IN HIGH SCHOOL.
His Remarks Seemed Particularly
Addressed to the Younger Element
Among His Hearers Dr. Conwcll
Told Them There Was No Excuso
for Narrow-minded Sneers at
Wealth and Indicated How Wealth
and Success Could Bo Attained.
Rev. Dr. llusscll H. Conwell. the not
ed Haptlst preacher ot Philadelphia,
was greeted by a iaigo audlenco In
the High school auditorium last even
ing. His lecture was Iho second num
ber of the High school lecture and
entertainment course.
"Actes of Diamonds?, or Wheie to
Get Rich and Hcconio Client," was Dr.
Conwcll's topic. It was the second
time that he was beard in this city
on that subject but it lost nothing by
lepctltlon, Judging fiom the large au
dience and the Interest und fervor with
which the lectin or was greeted His
temarks seemed to bo partlculuily ud
dicssed to young people, and this ele
ment largely composed the assembly.
Dr. Conwell filmed to dbvournge the
disposition on the part of a toi tnln clnsa
of people to decry ugulnst wealth, and
showed how the failure to possess
wealth and greatness was the Individ
ual disability to gtasp opportunities.
Ills address wus almost wholly compos
ed of lllusliatlvu anecdotes and stories,
u tunning lire of them. Interposed with
trite comment. He had his heineis
stlnod with laughter during neatly all
of the two hoins that he spoke. The
close of his talk wus mat red by soino
double with the electric lights which
kept tho auditorium In duikncss' for
nearly live minutes.
A SOURCj; OF PROFIT.
In beginning. Dr. Conwell asked tho
audlenco to put aside the question of
entertainment. He hoped his lectuio
would be a source of profit lather than
a medium of diversion. Otherle he
would feel that he was not fulfilling
his mission and would go away dissat
isfied. Ho told the story of Al Hnbed,
the wealthy Atub farmer, who sold bis
land to go in search of diamonds about
which a Huddhlst pi lest had told him.
He came to want nnd distress after
wandeiliig tluough u part of Asia, the
Holy Lands and Lurope in search of
the Jewels. Meanwhile Al Ilabed's suc
cessor found on his recently juiic based
land acies of diamonds, the Held from
which came the monster Koh-i-noor,
a Held more valuable now than even
the famous and comparatively iccently
opened Klinbeily mines.
Dr. Conwell said that Al Hnbed was
one e contented because he was wealthy,
und wealthy because he was contented,
but be finally became a pauper and a
suicide, because bo hud been discon
tented. A similar lesson was diuwu
fioni the action of the man who, for
$.0.2J sold the oil land on which Tltus
vllle now stands, and which Is worth
millions of dollars.
A young piotessor of mines and mln
eialogy sold his homestead in Massa
chusetts and went to Supeiior, Wis.,
to fill a position for n large mining
company. Tho man who bought the
farm discovered In one of Its stone
walls a block of stone containing a
piece of silver eight Inches square.
"And on that stone," Dr. Conwell said,
"the professor sat when he made tho
baignlu to sell tho homestead. On
tho farm was unearthed a native sliver
mine of considerable value. The joke,
however, was spoiled, he said, by the
piofessoi's comment from Superior to
the effect that Dr. Conwell nnd other
men had made Just such mistakes.
RIGHT ALL AROUND.
"The llghteous man shnll gather
riches," says the Rlble. Rut he must
be light all mound not tight In one
direction. Dr Conwell did not believe
that more than one man In a thousand
got ilch dishonestly. He said the one
exc eptlon had money which seared bis
hand, burned his brain nnd shrivelled
his heuit.
In this woild a man gets Just what
he is wottb. with rate exceptions. If
a man has kept stole in Seianton for
twenty years and has but $1,000 to show
for It. he ought to be dilveu from town
In return for being kept for twenty
yea is, nnd having gained so little prof
It from It.
A man should be put In pilson who
places In bis stoic window a sign read
ing "These goods to bo sold for less
thun cost." If ou ure in business nnd
tun It on the julnilple of "don't care"
jou won't succeed, and you don't de
serve to succeed, said the speaker. A
limn who don't caie Is violating a
business law us well us a religious one.
Men don't get rich on capital. It Is
no help to boirow money or to Inherit
It; a. ilch man's son Is to bo pitied and
not congratulated. The futher thinks
It a disgrace for him to work, and the
mother fears he will soil bis lllly-whlto
hands. Piopcr sense and not common
sense Is what Is wanted.
A. T. Slewait and his dollar nnd a
half weie used as another of Di. Con
well's many lllustintlve stoilcs. Ho
urged his younger hearers to remem
ber not to Invest themselves In some
thing people didn't want or they would
"find themselves on their own hands."

cessful munufactuiers and business
men of Scranton didn't have a cent
forty je.irs ago, but they had capital
honesty of puipose, a desire to sue-

man who made the big lot tunc out of
the simple nnd unpalntcd wooden tojs,
got his Ideas fiom bis children, whoso
tastes ho consulted when he began
whittling the tojs which weie first sold

Our wealth Is nearer than we sup

men who sneered ine those who have

a need that be can profit by,

a mistake to think the Httlr things nro

is veiy popular heie and on his pre

hour him.
Rev. J. J. D. Feeley in his inttodue
tlon of the lectin or, stuted tor the ben
efit of those who might not be ue
quulnted with his work that Mr. Dunn
Is engaged solely In a labor of love,
receiving no pay whatever for his ser
viced. Mr. Dunn, as he afterwards explain
ed, himself, has devoted his life to tho
cause of total abstinence. His first
efforts ate being towards the training
of tho young, but as ho goes along ho
stops by tho way to save tho old. If
the women ot tho land would band to
gether and promote the wmk of total
abstinence among tho clilldicn. Mr.
Dunn said, drunkenness would bo nl
mopt entirely wiped out insldo of twen
ty yearn. To bo successful, though,
she must let politics alone, he said,
In a meaningful way.
He then went on to elucidate the
theory, of which he Is a leading apos

It can be cutcd by medical treatment
such us tho Keelcy institutes offer.
Once a man becomes uflllcted ho can
not help getting drunk any moro thun

in tho centro ot the intersection when
not dodging trolley cnrH and vehicles.
Tho wind sweeping through Washing
ton avenuo from north to south nnd
along Hpruco street benumbs him, and
the wet, slimy pavements Is anything
but pleasant und henlthful to Rtand on.
Thnt kind of duty will bo heartily
dreaded by tho oflleers for tho next
few months.
If uny gootl vvns accomplished by
placing the nlllcets in such u position
they would not object so strongly.
They nllege that It hampers them, nnd
that they aro good for little or noth
ing, eave us a stnttie. They sincerely
hope the Intersection order wilt bo rescinded.
