When speaking of an automatic piano
player ono lias In mind at emeu an "olee
trlo attachment," a "proas tlio button
thump lox" or somo other device calcu
lated to grind out nolhes which uro mii
poscd to bo taken fcr music Ono with
refined tastes ran hardly tolerate- Mich
music and for this reason more than any
other thcro Is n certain prcjudlco
against all thliiKS automatic
Tho "Angelus" Is an uutomatlo piano
player but It only dos ono thing auto
jnatlcallv that li tho plavlns of tho
keys. Tho tempo, pedals, crescendo,
diminuendos, ci rvthltiK that makes
music beautiful Ih left entirely with the
performer. If ho has eood taste ho can
display it but If ho has absolutely no
knowledge of music ho still has tho ad
vantage of playing the correct notes In
correct time.
It may seem strange but tho greatest
admlrerx of tho "Angelas" In Scrnnton,
as In every city where It Is Introduced,
aro tho best musicians, those who havo

DO NOT FAVOR THE
RITUALISTIC IDEA
TEMPERANCE MEN REJECT THE
PROPOSED INNOVATION.
Tho Annunl Convention of tho Cath
olic Totnl Abstinence Union of tho
Dloccso of Scranton nt Hnzleton
Last Light, in a Committee of
tho Whole, Refused to Adopt tho
Ritual Presented Reports of Of
ficers Heaid nnd Members of Com
mittees Named.
At Hnzleton jestunlny the eighteenth
annual convention of tho Catholic To
tul Abstinence union of the diocese be
gan Sessions were lieia morning, after
noon nnd evening. Atthe evening session
tho delegates went Into a committee
of the whole to consider the auestlon
of adopting a ritual. It was decided
not to have a ritual and the committee
will so report to the convention today.
Tho convention Is made up largely of
nntl-iltuallsts.
Most of the delegates arrived In Hnz
leton last night and this morning at
tended mass In St. Gabriel's church.
Rev. H. J. Phillips, of Huzleton, was
celebrnnt. Rev. J. J McCabe, of Over
ton, deacon, nnd Rev Henry Buike, of
Hazleton, sub-deacon.
After mass the convention was called
to order In Murkle's hull by Rev. J.
J McCabe, piesldent of tho Diocesan
union. The following committee on
ciedentlals was nppolntcd- Hugh
Boyle, Hnzleton, D. J. Burke, Wilkes-.
Bane, and J. I'. I.avellc, Scianton.
Scctctaiy Geoige McLoughlln, of
Freoland, read a letter Horn the Right
Rev. M. J. Hobun, bishop of the Scran
ton diocese, In which he expressed his
regret nt not being nble to attend the
convention.
ANNUAL ADDRESS.
Father McCabe, the piesldent of tho
union, then made his annual address,
In which ho spoke of the woik that
had been accomplished dutiug the year.
He urged the delegates to give their
best efforts to tho work of the conven
tion and go back to their societies with
new enthusiasm and new zeal In the
great cause they are engaged In.
First Vice-president J. C. Gallagher
then read his repoit It was a lengthy
document, woll prepared, and was lis
tened to with rapt attention. Mr. Gal
lagher In his address gave what ho
considered good common sense Ideas
In the hope of furthering the advance
ment of the cause
The by-laws and constitution of tho
union now in vogue havo outlived their
usefulness, and he suggested that a
new code both for thn union nnd locnl
societies be passed. Mr. Gallagher
advocated a lltunl and n simple form
of Initiation ceremony The spiritual
director of the union should be given
more scope, he said. No lecognltlon
wns given him, nnd nt the least ho
should be a member of the board of
government.
Another feattne urged was tho
establishment of an Insurance de
pat tment. each toclety to be n
blanch, yet to be optional with the
membiis to be nlllliited with It. The
vlce-piesldent mid that piovlslon
should he made that In the event that
n society was compelled to disband
for want of tho required number of
meinbeis. the remaining members
could be membeis-nt-laigo of the
union: nnd upon payment of their for
mer dues and per capita tn, they
would be entitled to their fotmcr priv
ileges. LITIRIARY HURHAU.
A literal y bureau for each district
was askid by Mr. Gallagher. In Mr.
Gallaghers leport he paid much at
tention to the ladles' nnd cadet soci
eties, giving tho Increase and decline
In membership.
Mr. Gallagher also read very able
papers prepared bj' C. J. Johnson, of
Freeland; Rev. M. H. Lynott, of Jer
myn; Revj I P. McN'ally, of George
town; Miss Kutlierine Maher, of Scran
ton, nnd Miss M. H. Uarrett. of Car
bondnle. They touched on various
phases of the tempeianco ciuestlon.
Tho following committees weio ap
pointed, Constitutional amendments,
C H. O'Boyle. Scranton; James
Mlskell, Wilkes-IJarre; Hon. Thomas
Mooncy, Freeland Auditing, C, J.

On motion of Mr. Mnckln, of Wllkes
Baire, It was decided to appoint a
committee of five on ways and means
to make nn estimate for the year and
make such provisions for missionary
work as the financial condition of the
union will permit.
Tho formal address of welcome to the
delegates was made by Rev. Father
Phillips, Is the absence of Mayor Mey
er. Tho response was by Rev. J. J.
McCabe.
The annual report of Secretary George
McLaughlin showed that there are now
beventy societies In the union, an In
crease of threo since the last conven
tion. There Is now In tho treasury of
tho union $73011. The repoit of the
treasurer, William Gllroy, of Archbald,
showed that theio Is now f 27P.52 more
In tho treasuiy than there was ono
year ago,
EVENING SESSION.
When the convention met last even
ing It went Into a committee of the
whole behind closed doors to consider
the advisability of adopting secret
work for tho order. A ritual prepaicd
largely by M. J. O'Toole, of this city,
was piesented. Dennis Mnckln, of
Wllkos-IJarre, pieslded over the delib
erations of tho committee of the whole,
which were veiy spirited.
The committee was Instructed to ie
poit to the convention today ugalhst
tho ndoptlon of secret woik nnd a ilt
ual nnd that it Is far preferublo to
follow tho "open door" policy that has
prevailed In total abstinence circles for
years. This disposes of nn agitation
for a ritual that has been In pi ogress
for many years. It has come up ut
ulmobt eveiy convention, but never re
ceived as full a Iteming as It did last
night. The delegates from Scranton to
the convention ure:
Father Mathews M S. I.avello nnd
Charles Canavan Father Mathew
Cadets, Martin 1'. Sheridan and Thos,

Rurke, of this city, has dropped out of
the fight for secretary and It has nar
rowed down to a contest between
Charles Cnnavnn, of West Scrnnton,
and M. M. Mullaly, of Kingston. There
Is n host of candidates for national
delegate.
SEEING THE ' SELECTMEN.
Deputy Sheriff J. D. Ferber Is Serv
ing the Writs of Mandamus
Upon Their-Meetlng Will
Be Held Tonight.
All the selectmen excepting Mr.
James, of the Sixth, who Is In Denver,
Col.t are counted upon to be at the
meeting tonight to receive and appiove
the bond of City Sollclloi-clect Vos
buig.ns the mandamus of court directs.
Deputy Sheilff J. R. Ferber Is serving
the membeis with the writ and before
sundown will have seen all of them, he
expects, with the exception of Mr.
James.
The bond will be npprovod very like
ly, but It Is quite as likely that the
selectmen will cause the decision of tho
lower court to be reviewed. Whether
an appeal will bo directed, or whether
the matter will be loft for adjudication
In tho proceedings that will necessarily
follow Mr. Vosburg's attempt to take
possession of the office, Is not known,
but it Is certain that a majority of the
council are disposed to have the mut
ter tested, that they may have nn opin
ion rendered for futuie guidance, If for
nothing else.
It Is not opposition to Mr. Vosburg
that piompts this disposition In those
of the Republicans who favor u test.
It Is simply their positive opinion that
tho court made'a wrong decision, If Its
decision was conllrmntory of tho con
tention that Mr. O'lloyle had not the
light to change his vole. There are
some who also differ with the court on
the Norton phase of tho dispute, but
they are not as numerous as those who
argue that there was no election If the
court made Its decision on the strength
of Mr. O'Boyle having voted "Vos
burg." The nomination of Mr Walker as
chief of the flic department may not
be reported from committee. The ab
sence of Mr. James and tho opposition
of Messrs. Schneider, Schroeder, Finn
and Thomas would leave the nomina
tion wanting four votes for confirma
tion. Unless the necessary eleven votes
are In sight the nomination will bo
kept In the committee box. The eleven
votes were not In sight last night.
The confirmation of P. J. Wldmayor
as food Inspector will In all likelihood
come befoie the meeting. The sanitary
committee which has the nomination In
hand has held no meeting ns yet, but
ono of Its members, a Republican,
stated jesterday that ho favors repott
ing the nomination to council and have
It passed upon at once. It is very prob
able that a meeting of the committee
will be held just previous to the coun
cil session and that tho nomination will
be reported, with a majority tocom
mendatlon for Its confirmation and a
minority recommendation against it.
The sewers and drains committees
has called a meeting for 7.S0 o'clock to
pass upon tho Inspectorship nomina
tion's sent In by the mayor at the hist
meeting. Theso will also be repoited
for confirmation.
