On Monday tho commencement exer cises of tho Soldiers' Orphan school took plnco at Harford, Susquehanna county. In a way these exercises aro unique as thero are no Graduates. Tho Harford student, whether nn "honor" boy or gill or whether nt the foot of the class Is graduated at the nge of sixteen, but the departure of those who have reached tho age limit, plays no part In the commencement, ns that great annual event Is distinctly an oc casion in which tho nll-pervnding dip loma docs not nppear. The exercises Monday were marked by the presence of many distinguished guests, the members of the state com mission being in attendance. A special car went up from this city to Klngsley, leaving tho Delaware, Lackawanna and Western station nt 9 o'clock. Among tho occupants were: James Morrison and wife, William F. Stewart and daughter, of Philadelphia; Judge Darte, of Wllkes-Barro; Senator Stelnway, of Cambria county; Mr. Ad ams, of Susquehanna; Captain Skin ner, of Fulton; Major Willauer, of West Chester; Colonel E. II. Ripple, of Scranton, and Mrs. Swcntzcl, the new ly appointed Inspector, until recently matron at the Scotland school. Others were: William Emslie, post department commander, Grand Army of tho Republic; Harry Yohn, Harry Miller, and Mr. Fleming, of Philadel phia: S. II. Stevens. Miss Stevens.MIss Todd. Mrs. Mary M. Dostor, Mrs. M. W. Davenport, George Geary and daughter, Halsey Lathrope, Anthony Long, Captain Horn, Smith V.. Mott. post commander of Grlflln post, nnd daughter; Mrs. Frank Reese nnd son, Charles Pchlager, Mrs. Samuel Bryant, nil of Scranton. The party was met nt the station by Superintendent Matthews with vehicles sufllctcnt to convey the entire number over the beautiful hills to the school, nbout two hundred yards from which the band met the visitors nnd escorted them to the spot where "Uncle" John Anneman's artillery gave a grand salute. The students were drawn up In military lines on the campus, tho boys on one side of the street, the girls on the other, and they made a flno ap pearance Indeed. After a general Inspection by the committee, a bountiful dinner wns en Joyed nnd tho visitors were entertained by an excellent battalion drill, the girls giving a dumb bell nnd wand drill, un der direction of Miss Delsroth. A band concert followed and this was truly a remarknble organization as It Is com posed of students, some of whom aro scarcely three feet high. They all play with most commendable effect. Ah the drills were progressing, sud denly flames were discovered bursting from the boys' dormitory. It was a very hot day for a fire nnd tho boys were arrayed In their new uniforms, but they hastily scampered In vat Ions directions and In what seemed a mir aculously short space of time ladders were placed, nnd a bucket brigade working with military precision soon put out the fire. It was a very excit ing scene for the specators, and not until the ordinary routine of the school was resumed did they learn that it was all a "show fire," which had been kindled with the express purpose of having It quenched with theatrical ef fect by tho boys. Exercises In the chapel were then held in which the progrnmme was in terspersed with speeches by the visit ors who were dt&ghted with tho high order of talent evinced by the pupils. Supper was served nnd In tho evening tho school and the guests assembled In tho chapel where a patriotic operetta was charmingly rendered by the chil dren. Some mpmbera of tho visiting party returned at 8 p. m., others ic malnlns until the midnight train came, which was stopped at Klngsley through the courtesy of Mr. Bogart. CORBETT FAVORS JEFFRIES.

M BRICKLAYERS WILL NOT WORK TODAY SOME OF THEM TOOK UP THEIR TKOWELS YESTERDAY. Building Trades' Council nt Its Meeting East Night Did Not Approvo of tho Action of tho Men Who Wont Back to Work, nnd They Will Not Repeat tho Offenso. Condition, of Affairs Is Unchanged So Par as tho Builders' OExchango Is Concerned. Tho only Important change In the strike situation yestcrdny wna the re turn to work on two Jobs of the brick layers of Union No. 18. This action was not approved, however, by the del egates from that body at the Build ing Trades' council meeting last night, nnd It Is understood that thero will bo no bricklayers at work today on any Job where the contractors refuse to grant the demands of tho strikers. All tho other men called out by the Building Trades' council nro still out. At tho carpenters' tinsmiths' and plasterers' headquarters, at No. 400 Lackawanna avenue tho usual roll call was held In the morning. Tho orderly conduct and bearing of tho men Is one of the most notlcable features of these gatherings. It was said yesterday that several more contractors not nfllllatcd with tho Builders' Exchange had granted tha demands of the strikers, probably af fecting about thirty men who will go back to work at tho now scale. NO GREAT EFFORT MADE. While tho carpenters are taking con tracts themselves on a few small Jobs they are not making any great efforts In that direction ns yet. If necessity should demand, thnt they do it, they Vay that they have men of ability and energy possessed of sufficient capital to push the matter to a successful fin ish. Several of the union carpenters who did not go out on Btrlko June 1 Joined tho ranks of tho strikers yes terday. Business Agont John A. Price, of the Building Trades' council, said to a Tribune man yesterday afternoon that tho report published In nn evening pa per, stating that fifteen union brick layers had gone back to work for Con tractor Moyer at the old wnge scale created a false Impression as tho brick layers had made no demands. At the Builders' Exchange tho con dition of affairs Is absolutely un changed. The secretary stated that tho members were, still firm In their stand against the strikers, and according to ptesent indications would stand that way until tho end. One of the mem bers present said that ho could never be brought by any possible means to grant the demands of the strikers. There will be no regular meeting of tho Exchange until the regular month ly meeting on Tuesday evening next. At the meeting of the Building Trades' council held In Carpenters' hall last evening tho delegates from Brick layers' union, No. 18, were present and delivered a report of the reasons which impelled them to go back to work. They stated that while tho members weto heartily In accord with the demands of the strikers yet they did not consider it Incumbent on them to assume such r radical attitude. They also reported that they did not go back to work on any Jobs where non-union men were employed. This report was favorably received by the council, but the opinion wns expressed that tho council expected all tho building trades unions to act In accordance with tho resolutions ndopt ed last Sunday. In consideration of this It was finally decided that the bricklayers would stand by the strik ers hereafter. A board of walking del egates was appointed with Mr. John A. Price at Its head. One of the plast erer contractors was present and signed their agreement. Plasterers' union, No. 100, met In Industrial hall last evening and trans acted routine business. The strike will interfere with the construction of the Bolt and Nut fac tory, on which work was to begin this morning. DESTROYING THE TREES. Electric Wires Doing Much Damage to City Hall Elms. The top half of one of the large trees In front of city hall broke toff yester day at the point where the Scranton Hallway company's "feed" wires rested against the trunk. Although heavily Insulated and protected with extru windings of tape, tho wire ate Its wny half through the tree, A large branch of another tree nearby Is nbout ready to drop from tho same cause. Some years ago a proposition was made to remove these trees front In front of tho city hall, that tho people might see what they paid $175,000 for. Tho proposition was defeated at that time, but has several times been on the point of coming up again. There will bo no need of further discussion of the advisability of removing the trees It tho wires are not molested for a year or so. Counoil nt Pottsvllle. Schuylkill council, Knlyhts of Colum bus, was organized at Pottsvllle Sunday with forty charter members. Smoko The Pocfrto Cigar, Be.

A Remedy Pleasing to the Palate of More l)encllt Than a Nauicatlnz One. In former days a mcdlclno was value! according to Its nnuscousness, Even now there are those who distrust a pleasant medicine. Yet our sense of tasto Is a guard and guide Implnntcd In us to en able us to avoid that which would do us harm. What tho tasto approves benefits tho body, what It rojects would often tlmcB, If tnken, Impair the health, some times destroy tho llfo. Tho very qualities which tho tasto ap proves upbuild and fortify tho body against tho onslaughts of dlsense. This truth Is wonderfully exemplified In the wider end wider recognition of Duffy's Puro Malt Whiskey ns possessing tho most wonderful medicinal and stim ulating power of any agent that Is known to tho medical profcsslen. Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey Is as harm less as milk, as pleasant to tho taste ns nectar, and as powerful In remedial and stimulating power as nro all the agents of tho wholo pharmacopoeia. This great truth Is gradually becoming known tho world over, and It Is woll for tho human race that such la tho case. WOMAN BURGLAR AGAIN. Largo Quantity of Linen Stolen from tho Residence of J. E. Parrish. Entrance Effected Through a Basement Window. J. E. Parrish, superintendent of the Suburban Electric Light company, is the latest to report a visit from the burglars who for a couple of months past have been entering houses on tho "hill" nnd carrying away everything In the shape of lino linen that could be laid hold of. His homo nt S39 Clay nvonue Was visited some time during Monday night or yesterday morning. Entranco was effected through a basement window. Tho laundry was the only apartment ransacked. As in tho previous cases the line goods worn selected and car ried away nnd tho cheap articles left behind. Burnt matches on the base ment stairway indicated an attempt to get into tho upstnlrs apartments. A securely barred door, however, pre vented this. This Is the second time this house has been entered within a few months. The residence of Albert S. Baker in the same block has nlso been entered twice, while Mrs. Price's home nearby was also recently visited. Twice within the past threo months the residence of John Hlntermlster, of 003 Qulncy ave nue, has been entered. Scarcely a week passes but what a new burglary Is reported from that dlEtrlct and In every case tho circumstances lead to the conclusion that the work Is done by a woman or at least that a woman has a hand In tho operations. MEETING OF W. C. T. U. Equal Suffrage Will Bo illscussed at Next Meeting. The first of a series of monthly meet ings to bo held during the hot months by tho Women's Christian Temperance union was held yesterday afternoon In Guernsey hall. In the absence of the president, Mrs. Downing, Mrs. Field acted In that capacity. She icportcd a small balance In the treasury. The ladles were to have discussed equal suffrage, but It was decided to defer a general discussion until tho next meeting. Mrs. Robetts touched slightly on tho subject, and stated that women who compressed their waists were Incapable of self-government, not to speak of the government of others. She further said that women will never get what they are not capable of ask ing nnd lighting for. The members of the Equal Suffrage association were In vited to bo present at tho next meet ing. Miss Fannie Raub, local superintend ent of the Flower mission, read an In teresting paper on the work of,, that branch. It Is a department of the Na tional Women's Christian Temperance union, and is one of tho most popular branches of Women's Christian Tem perance union work. Mrs. Field reported giving away seventy-eight bouquets to railroad men on Decoration day, all of which were thankfully received. She stated that flowers had a mission both physical and mental, and that their perfume Is healing to the soul ns well ns to tho body. The next meeting will be held on the second Tuesday of July. WALKER TO ASSUME CHARGE. Change in the Fire Department Will Occur Today. This morning, tho new head of the fire department, John Walker, will as sume chaige, telleving George R. Buy dum, the acting chief. Building Inspector T. B. Jackson had his bond ready for piesontatlon at Monday night's meeting of common council, but a sudden adjournment pre vented Its consideration.

Philadelphia Inquirer of Yesterday Contained an Article Which Stated That tho Now Owner Will Not Bo Ablo to Obtain a Fancy Price for It, ns Philadelphia Can Have tho Land Condemned and Then Allow tho Price to Bo Fixed by a Jury Appointed for That Purpose. Tho Philadelphia Inquirer of yester day contained the following with ref erence to tho recent purchaso of land In "Pike county by William Kelly, of this city: "Twelve thousand acres of land In Pike county, between the villages of Hnwiey nnd Cresco, a part of that ter ritory now under Inspection by the water experts, pending their decision as to its availability as a water supply for this city, have been sold by the Shakers to William Kelly, of Scranton. Of tho 12,000 acres, 2,500 nro covered with water. Tho land has been pur chased In tho expectation thnt Phila delphia will want it shortly as n source of water supply. "For some time the experts and councllmen have had boforo them the question of tho feasibility of securing Philadelphia's water supply from un poluted sources. A territory of nbout 100 square miles in tho northwestern part of Plko county was Anally select ed, nnd tho experts have been lately examining this tract. It Is from eighty to one hundred miles from Philadel phia, nbove the Pocono mountains, and takes In tho largo Wallon Paupack Creek, Shohola Creek, tho hundreds of tributaries of the Delaware In that sec tion, and a great number of lakes, among them the famous White Deer nnd Beaver lakes, as well a3 the town ships of Blooming Grove nnd Palmyra. It begins at a point north of the Lacka waxen and ends at a point south of tho Shohola. All the water Is pure. CAN BE CONDEMNED.. "Select Councilman William G. Iluey, of the Fifteenth ward, when seen yes terday regarding Kelly's purchaso and Its effect upon the city's plans, said: 'It can have no effect upon our plans If the city decides to take the terri tory in question for Its water supply. Under act of legislature, cities, town ships and boroughs can enter In and take possession for water uses of land In any section of the state, under the right of eminent domain, and if the owners and city cannot agree upon the price, a Jury shall be appointed to fix the price. So, you see, wo have noth ing whatever to fear from Mr. Kelly. " TThe tract of land under nbeyance comprises CI.000 ncres. There are 43, 500 feet In an acre. This would glvo you 2,700,000,000 of cubic feet In the tract. There Is a rainfall of three feet six Inches per annum. Thl3 would be 10,000,000,000 cubic feet of rainfall In one year on the 100 square miles. This would give you 74,000,000,000 gallons in tho 100 square miles. Allow 60 per cent, for evaporation and waste, and there temaln 37,000,000,000 gallons for use per yenr In these 100 miles. Philadelphia consumes dally 240,000,000 gallons. These 37,000,000,000 gallons would give us, then, alone, 140 days' supply on 100 miles of rain-shed;- the 250 miles rain shed adjacent will give us one year's supply, and the numerous lakes In tho region will do the same. SUPPLIED BY GRAVITY. " 'The cost of a steel conduit eleven feet In diameter, put In complete, will bo $20,000,000. This will carry enough water to supply the city from this ele vation by gravity alone. And It will be tho best and purest of water.' "From others Interested In the pro ject It was learned that the experts are favorably Impressed with the territory under advisement, and several council men say that the feeling nmong their constituents Is strongly In favor of such a source for their water supply, Mr. Huey is In favor of securing the foregoing described tract of land for tho purpose of utilizing It ns a source of Philadelphia's water supply."
