Sessions Will Open on Tuesday, Sept. 10, and Will Continue Until Sept. 22 It Is Estimated That the Convention Will Do Attended by Over Eight Hundred Delegates. Programme That Has Been Pre pared by Local Members of the Order for the Week. There Is to he another very Inrge convention In this city in September and one about which very little has been said so far. It Is to be the state, council of the Junior Order United American Mechanics, nnd will be sand wiched In between tho letter carriers' and thp firemen's conventions. The sessions will commence on Tues day, Sept. 13. and will continue till Friday, the 22d. Inclusive. There will he over S00 delegates present from all parts of the state, which Is only one hundred less than the letter carriers expect to have here. The order has ten councils In this county, comprising u membership of 1,400, and there are 1.000 councils in the state with a total membership of over G.1,000. The sessions will commence oik Tues day morning and will continue dally until Friday evening. They will he held In the Lyceum.

On Wednesday evening there will he a monster moonlight excursion run to Lake Ariel, it Is very probable that In order to complete the Inrge amount of business which will come up for con sideration It will be necessary to hold night sessions on both Thursday and Friday evenings. There will be a very lively contest for the honor of holding the convention next year. Several cities are out for It, but It Is thought that Philadelphia will win out.

At the National Council last year the (luestionastothe advisability of chang ing the name of the organization was discussed, but It was tlnally decided to leave the subject to the various slate bodies for Html settlement. It is proposed to leae out the words Junior, order, anil mechanics, making the shorter name, 1'nited Americans. There Is considerable opposition to this plan manifested and it is likely to provoke much discussion. The headquarters of the state nUlceri will be, as stated before, at the Jer myn. but the state convention liead iiuarters will be located in the old Powell building, opposite Hie Lyceum.

Ho expressed himself as being sur prised at tho small number of pollen In the city, there being only one to every 2,000 Inhabitants, while tho aver ago is one to every 1,000. In Wilkes Farro they havo one to every 1,400, He was also much surprised that there was no paid fire department In the city and said Scranton compared very unfavorably with other cities of oven smaller slzo in this respect.

Expected to Bo Present Thero Will Be Sharp Contests for the Of fice of Stato President and for the Convention City of Next Year A Handsome Souvenir Badge nnd Also a Booklet Are Being Pre pared, Ono of the principal features of tho coming stale (Iremen's convention will he the spirited contest which Is apt to materialize for the ofllco or state president and for the place of meeting next year. The two contestants for the olllce of state president are Samuel D. Smith, president of the Humane Knslnp com pany, or Norrlstown, nnd George J. Ktegmler, the well known brewer of Luzerne county. Uoth these men are not only popular In their respective lo calities, but nro also well known throughout the stute. New Castle, Danville nnd Ilnrtisburg are cities contending for the 1900 con vention nnd from the present outlook there will be a very close fight. Recording Secretary Green and Financial Secretary W. W. Winder, of Reading, will probably have no op position to their selection to those posi tions. A. L. Relchenbach, of Allen town, the successor of the late John Sllnghufr In the olllce of state treas urer, will be a candidate before tho convention for that ofllce and up to the present time no opposition candi date has put In an appearance. COMMITTKF.S AT WORK. The several committees In charge of the convention are now working har moniously and are meeting with re maikable success. The citizens and business men of the city are respond ing generously to the appeals being made to them, as the majority of peo ple are strongly In sympathy with the volunteer Hremen. Secretary Winder now states that he Is In communication with over l.ooo del egates from all parts or the state and that at least that number will posi tively be here. Kach delegate will be presented with a particularly hand some and elaborate souvenir badge, which Is pronounced by all who have seen It to be one of the most artistic souvenir badges ever gotten up for such an occasion. It consists of a llgure of the Goddess of Liberty standing on u pedestal of anthracite coal anil holding In her right hand an arc lamp, typifying the "Klec tric City." This Is suspended from -i bar representing a collection of fire men's apparatus, with the word "Dele gate" In the centre. The county commissioners have of reied the use of the court house to the committee and the sessions of the con vention will be held in the main court room. The topics which will be dis cussed during the convention will be along the line of general Improvement of the personnel and work of the vol unteer llremen. GF.XF.RAL INVITATION. A movement Is now on foot to have a committee from the city department, headed by Chief John 11. Walker, visit the International convention of Hr chiefs to be held In Syracuse on Aug ust 22 and to present an Invitation to the delegates present to attend the con vention in this city. An invitation of this kind will reach the head of the lire department of every large city in the country. ' In connection with the convention, the executive committee will Issue an lllustiated souvenir embodying the of ficial programme of the proceedings of the convention. it will also contain historical sketches of both the local and state associations and also of the vari ous lndusliles, etc., of the city of Scranton. Tlie convention last veai was held In Lebanon and a great deal of dissatis faction resulted, owing to the lack of facilities on the part of that city. Th committee are confident that this city Is perfectly capable of satisfactorily accommodating the delegates and visit ing firemen and will prollt by any bltmdeis made during the last conven tion.
