MR. PARTRIDGE'S WORK.
Described at Length in an Article in
the Christian Horald.
A recent number of the Christian
Herald had for Its leading article a de
scription of tin- work Rev. Warren (J.
Partridge, formerly pastor of the I'enn
Avenue Haptlst church of tills city. Is
doing In Cincinnati, O., where he has
charge of the Ninth Street Baptist
church and its missions. A large, ucll
exeeuted picture uf Mr. I'artrldgn
adorns the first page of the Herald.
Tho article Is headd in Ibis wise:
"Pastor of eight churches ltev. War
ren ti. Partridge and Ills far-reaching
spiritual charge In Cincinnati Tlv
N'lnth Street Haptlst church a "Mother
of Churches" Jtovlval fires lopt
lulghtly burning and a great armv of
organized Christian workers laboring
earnestly for wouls." Portion? of the
aitlcle are as follow?:
" 'Mother of Churches' Is the endear
ing liimie which has been fitly given to
the remarkable church organization, the
outlines of whose history are given lie
low. The record may serve as an en
couragement to other churches nnd a
stimulus to all who love the associa
tion of fellow -Christians in the service
of the Master The Ninth
Street Haptlst church, of Cincinnati, O.,
was organized on the Oth of Novem
ber. S:0, sixty-eight years ago. There
were onlv nlneteei. members at that
time, but now there are about 1,600, It
being the largest Haptlst congregation
in Ohio, and one of the largest HtiptUt
churches In this1 country.
"About L'.fiiXt peopleattond the preach
ing services every Sunday night at the
home church and the seven chapel.i.
This would make an attendance for the
year of over 1110,000 persons. Many are
saved anil join other chuichts. Jinny
from other cities and from the sur
rounding country are converted while
at the nicetlnss, and return to their
homes and make good workers there.
There Is u baptism at the home church
about every Sunday of the year; 3."2
members have joined the church tho
part three years, a majority of whom
united on profession of faith, For the
last thirteen years, from one to two
hundred persons have joined the church
every year. In a down-town church,
the people arc very migratory, and
hundreds take their letters and join
churches In the suburbs and surround
ing towns and cities.
"The workers rejoice that they are
thus building up the kingdom of
heaven, and supplying members and
workers In other churches. The cities
are the 'storm centres' of our organ
ization. We must evangelize our cities,
otherwise our civilization is doomed.
The great cities must be captured for
Jesus Christ. Vigorous, modern, prac
tical and spiritual churches must
grapple with the wickedness of the
modern cities, or our republic will be
Imperilled. Ninth Street church, of
Cincinnati, is doing her utmost to help
evangelize and Christianize the mod
ern centres of population."

NOW FOR THE WORK
OF THE CAMPAIGN
PARTIES ARE GETTING IN
SHAPE FOR THE STRUGGLE.

'Position of Chairman of tho Exec
tttivo Committee It Is Probable

cratic City Committee.
Within a few days the city cam
paign will be well under way. The
Republicans, Democrats and Prohibi
tionists haVe held their conventions and
are now engaged In mapping out the
work of the campaign.
The preliminary work for the Re
publican, campaign Is well under way.
The candidates were nominated a week
ago yesterday and since then they have
held several meeetlngs, at which ma
terial for the city committee was dis
cussed. The Crawford county rules provid
ed that the person elected permanent
chairman of the convention of return
Judges shall servo for the following
year as chairman of tho city commit
tee. It was decided that It would be
over-burdening the city chairman to
compel him to take charge of tho de
tail work of tho campaign and that
will be entrusted to a chairman of the
campaign executive commltee.
Alderman W. S. Millar will be chair
man of this committee. He Is an
earnest, systematic worker and ho
knows the people of Scranton. With
Mr. Millar ut the helm It can bo de
pended upon that the campaign will
be spirited and successful.

mally elected chairman of the execu
tivci committee, but will be at
a meeting of the candidates to
be held tonight In the Cen
tral Republican club rooms. Ho

dates and asked to accept tho onerous
position and agreed to do so. .

to succeed himself, as his buHiness in
terests consume about all hla time. Tho !
Democratic candidates have not yet
had a meeting, but will within a day
or two and the work of selecting a
committee will be taken up at once.
There is a big undertaking on hand
for the men who will have to close
the wounds made in Tuesday's con
vention. Jennlng's supporter were
much in evidence yesterday and they
spoke their minds with great freedom
about the treatment they received.
.Mr. Jennings is not talking for pub
lication, but he Is doing some deep
thinking.

their part say that they are here for

MADE ANOTHER ESCAPE.
Boy Thief Apparently a Very Slip
pory Individual.
Tho boy thief continues to wonder to
and fro on the earth, unmolested In his
nefarious pursuits. On Monduy, Miss
Flora Matthews, daughter of It. J. Mat
thews, of Wyoming avenue, happened
to look out of the window In time to
witness the sudden exit of a small boy
from the front door of her neighbor,
Mrs. Chauncey Reynolds, pursued by
vociferous scolding by a servant. Miss
Matthews hastened out, crying, "Tluit's
the thief Mho has been In our house
twice," and grasped him by the collar
as he lied from the wrathful maid.
Then she called for help, but no one
responded except a physician's man,
who was sitting In a carriage not far
away, but who announced It Impossible
to leave his fiery steed.
MIm Matthews held the squirming,
kicking youngster until her strength
gave out, when ho wriggled out of her
hands, and thus Is chronicled another
Instance when this slippery specimen
of humanity has escaped Justice.
RIVAL SCHOOL BOARDS.
Arguments Heard by tho Supreme
Court in tho Pittston Caso Scran
ton Attorneys Took a Hand
in tho Talking.
Arguments were made before the Su
premo court, in Philadelphia, yester
day in the Pittston school board case.
P. A. O'Boyle, of Pittston, and D. J.
Reedy, solicitor of the Scranton board
of control, represented the ousted
board. M. N. Donnelly, solicitor of the
new board in Pittston, nnd I. H. Burns,
of this city, argued for the legality of
the board of six.
The Scranton attorneys assisted In
the case because of the fact that the
contest between the two boards In this
city depends on the outcome of the
Pittston case, the conditions being
similar, except In that the Pittston
board of six holds the fort, while In
this city the board of twenty-one Is In
control.
The representatives of the board of
six argued that the law of 1S74, under
which the board of twenty-one claims
authority, Is unconstitutional and that
the original act, providing for six direc
tors elected at large, should prevail.
The Act of 1S74. which provides that
school directors shall be elected from
the several wards, Is an act legislat
ing generally for the government of
third-class cities. The supporters of
the board of nix claim that It was un
constitutional to legislate for school dis
tricts and cities In the same act.
It Is further alleged that when the
lawmakers legislate for schools they
must legislate for all the schools and
not ppecially for those In school dis
tricts co-existent with third-class
cities.
The arguments of the representatives
of the larger board were in defense of
the constltulonnllty of tho act.
The Scranton case Is down for argu
ment on Feb. 20. A decision in tho
Pittston case before that date would
make arguments unnecessary.
FUNERAL OF MISS BRYANT.
Services Held in the Court Street
Methodist Episcopal Church.
Tho funeral of Miss Ida Bryant, who
was fatally injured In the trolley ac
cident on Dec. 23. was held from the
Court Street Methodist Episcopal
church yesterday afternoon. A num
ber of her Intimate frlenda called at

their last respecti to the dead. At
the church the Rev. Mr. Lyman, as
sisted by Rev. Dr. Glffln and Rev. W.
G. Watklns, made touching refernces
to the Christian character of the de
ceased, The choir, of which Miss Bryant was
a member, led by Prof. George Thayer,
sang with much feeling the following
pieces: "Afileep In Jesus," "Weil
Never Say Good Bye In Heaven," "Af
ter" and "Nearer My God to Thee."
The floral offerings were profuse and
very beautiful. Tho one from the
choir was a large harp of roses with a
broken string, significant of the young
soul which had fled.
The flower bearers were Sunday
school classmates: Mrs. Deubler, Mlsw
Kdlth Davis, Miss Flora Polk and Miss
Jessie North. The pall-bcarcrs were
from J. W. Guernsey's Sunday school
class from the Second Presbyterian
church: Edward Bryant, Benjamin
Evans, Thomas Kerr, Samuel Watklns,
Harry Gardner and Rexford Kimble.
Interment was made In Forest Hill
cemetery.

A Noteworthy Entertainment.
Over a score of leading vocalists of
the city, Miss Julia Allen, violinist, the
Philharmonic string cntartette, und
Messrs. D. B. Atherton and C. D. San
derson, have volunteered to give an
"Old Folks Concert" for the benfit of
the Summer Home for poor women and
children, In the beautiful auditorium
of the new St. Luke's parish house cm
the evening of Feb, 3th. As our readers
ure aware, the "Summer Honie" Is an
absolutely non-sectarian charity con
ducted byithe Men's Guild of St. Lukc'B
church. The guild owns a beautiful
and commodious building a Cr"seo, or.
which there remains an ir.debetdness.
During the past summer tho demands
on the treasury of the Guild, owing to
the large number of inmates of tho
home, and the making of necessary re
pairs were so great as to cause a de
ficit. It Is to cover this deficit nnd to
endeavor to lessen the Indebtedness,
that the proceeds of the concert will be
devoted. The talent to take part In
tnls entertainment will, In point of
ability and artistic merit excel any
traveling concert organhatlon, and be
sides through tho volunteering of tho
performers, all funds realized will be
available for the use of the Summer
Home, none will go to travelling show
men. CATARRH ln""the head Is cured by
