Yesterday Was the Last Day on Which Payments Could Be Made Without Incurring a Pen alty Amount Received. fine check for $12,000 In payment ol taxes was received by City Treasurer Ho a ml yesterday. It Is the largest tax payment received and the next largest was a check for $7,000, also received ycsterdiu-. Yesterday was the lust day for the payment of taxes without penulty and the olllce of the city treasurer and tho corridor outside wus thronged during the day with persons anxious to make their payments before the close of of fice hours. The crush was so great that It was necessary to keep the olllce open until 7 o'clock In the evening. Then the tired clerks sat down to a supper furnished by order of City Treasurer I Inland and served by Lohmann, of Lackawan na avenue. Supper, however, did not end the day's work, several hours were required on the books before the olllce. was closed for the night and the clerks went home. About $73,000 wns received during the day. On Monday the receipts were $M,00C.70, Tuesday, $47,92...ri.r; Wednes day, $,"6,S3.'.2S, a total of $19!),7Cl..r.3 dur ing the four days of the week. The amount of money received on any one day would offer a tempting bait to thieves despite tho strong vault In which the money was ploced every night. So, In accordance with the cus tom of past years, a policeman was stationed In the olllce every night. Pa trolman "Babe" Jones had this year tho extremely pleasant duty of sitting throughout the night with his eyes on an Iron door which hid a fortune. COAL CONTRACT MUDDLE. School Controllers May Have Trouble in Settling It. When the board of control meets in adjourned session next week, Friday evening, there is going to be a big row over the proposals to furni-h coal to buildings In the Fourth distrlcl the North End. At Monday night's meeting of the board It was voted to award contracts for the ilrst three districts, but not for the Fourth, as only one proposal fyr that district was received. On recom mendation of the supply commlttea It was voted to re-advertlse. Tae one proposal received Monday night was from James Kearney. The figures con tained In his proposal were read, pub lished and made public and he quite naturally feels disposed to comb-it rny attempt of tho board to awatd tho con tract to any one who bos had the op portunity to profit by the publicity given his (Mr. Kearney's) bid. The controversy has been well started by Mr. Kearney's friends. In nnd out of the board, and will be mado more complex by the contention of th new bidders that the board is bound to accept the lowest bid or repu Hat.- its advertisement soliciting proposals.

By Special Dispensation Irem Tem ple, of Wilkes-Barre, Met In the Rooms of the Board of Trade The Session Was Followed by a Ban quet at the Hotel Rudolph Special Train of Three Passenger Coaches Came Here with Members from Down tho Valley. Nearly two hundred prominent Ma sons of this part of the state piu-tlel-pated last night In a meeting of Irem temple, Ancient Arable Order. Nobles of tho Mystic Shrine, In the board ot trade rooms and, later. In a banquet at the Hotel Rudolph. At least halt ot this large parly were well known men who reside outside tho city. While tho Mystic Shrlno Is not a Masonic organization It Is composed exclusively of Mnsons. Irem temple Is chartered to bold its meetings at Wllkes-Barre, but a speclol dispensa tion wns granted for last night's meet ing In Scranton. The particular busi ness of the session was the Initiation of a class of twenty-lour novices. The local members ot the temple gathered nt 6 o'clock nt Masonic hall and, accompanied by the Lawrence band, wont to the Jersey Central depot to meet a special train bearing the members from AVIlkes-Barro and other cities down the valley. The train wns composed of three passenger coaches and an engine and reached hero about 7 o'clock. A SIIOBT PARADE. Headed by the band the local and visiting members marched to the board ot trade building via Lacknwnnna avenue, Wyoming avenue, Spruce street and Washington avenue. By a previous anil regular train a special baggage cur had brought the parapb"r nalla necessaty to the work In hand. The board oP trade assembly hall was utilized for the chief work of tho evening. The initiation proceedings wer conducted by the following olll cers: Frank Dletiick, potentate; W. L. Haeder, chief rabban; William Cal leu, assistant rabban; W. L. Wilcox, oriental guide; Warren It. Bowman, high priest; Oswald C. Volst, mar shal: Burton Voorhecs, ceremonial master; M. V. W.ttres, assistant cere monial master: Charles S. Landls, cap tain of the corps de Arabic; Isaac E.

It was 10.55 o'clock before the work was finished and the Nobles went to the Hotel Rudolph for the banquet, and It was nearly U o'clock before the feast was ended and the down-tho-valley members left on their special train. The repast contained twelve courses composed of the most delectable ot the reason's delicacies and was served by a largo corps of waiters especially en gaged for the occasion. The Nobles sat on either Mde of three tables, each of which traversed the length of the large dining room. There was not much time available for formality or speech-making but what there was of that kind of thing was presided over by Potentate DIetrick, who is Wilkes Barre's city clerk. During the banquet there was music by tho Lawrence or chestra of eight pieces. PURELY SOCIAL. The Shriners did not herald their proposed doings In Scranton for the reason that they are not of the world. Though under the wing of a far-reaching organization the Mystic Shrine Is purely social and for Itself and does net aim to have Us affairs discussed except by novices and It Is not likely that they will sav too much. There arc nnlv four temples In this state. Syria, of Pittsburg: Lulu, of Philadelphia: Rajah, of Reading, and Irem, of Wllkes-Parre. The latter's Jurisdiction covers one-qiiarter ot the commonwealth.

A dispatch from Belletonte, this state, states that Miss Rebecca Pnrrv. of that town, a Christian Scientist, to whose Inlluence u coroner's jury In a verdict recently ascribed the cause of Mrs. Garbrlck's suicide, has consulted with Ex-Lieutenant Governor WiUitjfc, of this city, obotit the matter. Mrs. Gurbrlck, who received Christian Science treatment from Miss Parry for bodily ailments, went out one night and deliberately lay down on the rail road tracks, uilowhiK a train to cut off her head. In commenting on tho ver dict of the coroner's Jury the dlsnatoh quotes Ex-I.lelitonant Governor Watres as saying, in a letter to Miss Parry: "Of course, if any one .stops to think nnd to parse the article and the verdict of the coroner's jury. It will appear perfectly ubsurd that you should bo charged with the death of this woman. Personally, you have nothing to fear. If you should hear ot the case again you will have ampJo opportunity to de fend yourself. "This Is a free country and religious beliefs cannot be Interfered with, nor lights trampled upon. One has a per fect right to employ an allopath, homoeopath, electropath, or any other kind of a doctor, and they have it right to employ no doctor If they see lit, but to rely upon Divine power, awl this without fear of molestation. So far as this case affecting the truth Is concerned there need be no fear of that. The truth will maintain Itself nnd the harder It Is pressed the more It will be demonstrated."
