Tells Whnt His Compnny Is Willing to Do for the Miners Stroudsburrr nnd East Stroudsburg Aro Enjoy ing nn Industrial Boom Some Chnnges That Are About to Be Mndo nt Honesdnlo Trouble nt the William A Colliery at Duryca Sat isfactorily Adjusted. The numerous wlld-pyrrt statements printed In sonic of the local papers about dlffpreiirrs between tbe l.neku wanna company and Its inliv'H !ina tailed forth the follow Inp statement fiom Superintendent E. K. l.ooinl.s. Auk. :M, 1M9. Mr. O. J Davis, chairman; Mr. W. T. Williams. Mr. "William Evan. Mr Tatrlrk Lynch, Mr. Jnnies S. Stevens, eommllt'.. tipntlrnieii: In response to yiyir re fiuest dutlnK my absence for a written nnawer to the different iiuestlons raised in our recent conference, I can only re iterate what 1 said to you personally. I'lrst We can make no reduction In the price of powder nt this time. When a chanRp In th" price" of powder Is made there must be a Reticral readjustment of mlnlnr; rates to correspond, (kind miners receive a fair romponsntlnn for the hnuiH they work, and chanKliiK th" price of powder without clmiKlns the price of mining, slmnly means an In crease In miners' wages, which 1 re Bret to say. we cannot entertain nt til's time. Second I note you ask for a continu ance o the standard Diamond car "with six Inches toppl-R at the tipple." As stated to vou personally. It is nut our Intention to chancre thp standard oar and we will endeavor to look after the sis Inches of toopliiK at tipple, as you request. I find thnt during the p.ist few years there hnve been some cars made in which steel bottoms have been used. These bottoms will admit (providing the car l' loaded properly. with six Inches of topping) of a few more pounds of coal, ns tbe steel is thinner than the wooden bottoms. As I stated to your committee, the onlv ptaeticable wnv 1 can see to correct this matter would be to ship all these rats to one breaker nnd allow a proper nmount for loading on the Diamond car basis. This we will try and do eventually, but to ship awny from th" different collieries at this time the steel bottom cars they now have In use would cripple some mines seriously until wo can get other cars to take their places. Third In reference to smithing. As stated to you personally. If we do not have a sufficient number of black smiths or are unable to procure men competent to properly sharpen tools at any of our breakers, miners will have the privilege of taking their tools else where to be sharpened and no charge will be made, but before doing so they should notify the foreman so that It possible he may take steps to remedy the trouble, or straighten out his o'fllce accounts so that a dunllcato charge will not be made. It should be dis tinctly understood, however, that un less there Is a failure on the part of the company to perform prompt and proper service the men will be expect ed to have their work done by the com pany's blacksmiths as heretofore. Yours truly, K. K. Loomls. Prosperity nt Stroudsburg. The various manufacturing .Indus tiles of Stroudsburg and Ent Strouds burg with one exception are i mining full. (Jreat activity prevails at the Wllkes-Uarre and Eastern car shops. Nearly J00 men are being employed. Tlie largest number possibly ever in tliilr history.

On Monday morning It is oxpeetert thnt between one nnd two hundred men will be engaged at the work of tearing down what, still remultm here of the old Gravity nnd canul coal wokts and filling In the canal basin. Since the Delnwaro nnd Hudson offi cials were help the first of the week nnd left orders to begin this work.

'.he Delaware and Hudson company is getting almost as much coal from Its mines here now as It did when the White Oak bleaker was In operation. Last Friday .iS4 tons of coat were pre pared, for market nnd the average dally output since has been quit near that figure. The best record of the old breaker was 102:! tons and It Is ex pected thnt this will be passed when the present plant Is In perfect work ing order. The sheave wheel has been placed In position and on Monday sixteen cham bers in No. 1 mini began operations. This gives employment to nbout sixty men. The miners nnd laborers now nt work are doing remarkably well. They can got nil the mine cars they enn load. Three hundred chambers have been getting ten cars durlrig the past week This Is more than four-handed chambers had before the lire. It Is remarkable that the employes of the company will not miss one" pay day because of the fire. The mines worked six days in July for which they were paid In August nnd they worked the Inst week In AugUFt for which they will be paid thlls month. So the paymaster has come as usual. This Is a remarkable example of quick construction for which Delaware and Hudson mnnngement deserves credit. Archbald Citizen. Satisfactorily Adjusted. Three hundred miners employed at the William A. colliery of the Connell Coal company In Duryea went out on strike on Saturday morning. This was because the company had discharged an Italian nnnied Luiclzi because he was incompetent. A committee of the miners waited upon Mr. Connell on Saturday and mat ters were satisfactorily adjusted, the men promising to return to work to morrow'. This and That. Levi Williams has been appointed ns superintendent of stone work in con nection with the department of con struction of the Delaware, Lacka wanna and Western Hallroad company to succeed John Mulr, who resigned several weeks ago. The Dodson mine at Plymouth will be Hooded. The officials say it Is Im possible to extinguish tie fire by any other method. They claim that It will take sixty days to drown the shaft nnd much more time to pump the water out. The Dig Four road has just placed an order with the International Power company for four consolidation engines, to weigh 190,000 pounds. The tenders, which will be built of ten-Inch channel steel, will be provided with tanks of 0.000 gallons water capacity and equip ped with Kox pressed steel trucks. CRYSTAL HOSE CO.'S OAMES.

His Topic Wns "Christ the Great Physician" If Wo Follow His Df. rectlons We Shall Take on New Bodies, Wherein Is no Sin, no Dis ease, no Death Christ Never Taught That the Sick Should Dis card Medicines nnd Natural Means. Dr. J. C. Iiatcson delivered nn Inter esting nddress Inst evening in the tent of the Volunteers of America, on the corner of Adams avenue and Mulberry street. He sppku on the topic, "Christ, the Great Physician." He said In part: "In examining the healing works of Chi 1st it appears thn there is not a uniform law that the sick should ex ercise faith, nnd thnt it wns not neces sary that their friends should exercise It. nor that either thy or their friends should do so. "Sometimes the sick nlone believed; nt others their friends believed and they knew nothing about It; again, both the sick and their friends believed nnd on some occasions neither the sick nor the friends believed. No account of failure on the part of Christ to cure a case can be found. "Neither Is there recorded nny re larse or the danger of such n thing, nor any cautions to the healed 'not to mind sensations, etc' "He restored the, withered hand, not by the slow process of a change In fh circulation, and gradual change In tli nutrition, followed by structural alter ation; but It was Instantly made whole Ilk i! as the other. ItKSTOltrcn LIMPS. "Not only so lie restored limbs that had been cut off (Matthew, xv:3n-rt). 'And there came unto Him great mul titudes having with them the lame, blind, dumb, mnlmed. nnd many others, nnd they cast them down nt his feet; anil lie healed them; Insomuch that the multitude wondered when they saw the dumb sprain?, the maimed whole, and the lame waling, nnd the blind see ing.' "The last miracle that Christ wrought bfeore His crucifixion, according to St. Luke, was one that defied all the fol lowers of falth-hcallng of every spe cies to parallel (Luke. xxll:50-Bl). 'And a certain man of them smote the ser vant of the high priest nnd struck of his right ear. Hut Jesus answered and said, 'Suffer ye thus far.' And He touched his ear and healed him.' "Christ had power to command the law of healing to do his bidding. Hut the healing of bodily ailments were simply proofs of His greater power to heal sin-sick souls. "This power made Him the most wonderful physician that ever came on the earth. He Is iqlghty to save. He Himself took our Infirmities and our sicknesses. He healed the dumb and blind, lepers, palsied, paralyzed, Insane, crippled, and raised the dead. Ho did those things which would be considered Impossible by physical means or agents. "Christ never taught thnt the sick should discard medicines and natural means, which with us are so bountiful ly provided. He said the whole, or those who are well, have no need of a physician. WANTED ALL SAVED, "Christ was desirous of having the sick healed and the transgressors or disobedient made right In His sight. He was not willing that any should perish, but that all should be saved and brought to a knowledge of the truth. "Christ is a sympathizing physician. He careth for us with a true regard. Ho offers pardon and pecce to all. Oh, what a wonderful physician He Is! Christ, the great physician, gave His life that we might live. He has suf fered to redeem us from the curse of sin and disease. "In the epistle of James. Christians nre enjoined to pray In time of afflic tion. An excellent recipe for human happiness. 'If any sick let him call for the elders of the church; nnd let them pray over him, anointing him with oil In the name of the Lord.' Elders here refers to age nnd not to official posi tion. "The anointing with oil was the sign of consecration under the old dispen sation and under the new betokened the blessings of the Spirit. "The story of the good Samaritan spoken of by Christ shows the char acter and qualities of a true physician or neighbor. This despised but noble minded Sumarltan as he Journeyed came where a man lay wounded and dying, nnd he had compassion on him and went to him a,nd bound up his wounds, applying wine and oil, which were the standard medicines of that time. He then conveyed the man to an Inn, where he took care of him. Fl'RTHEP. DKSCniPTION. "A further description of a Christian physician or neighbor Is given by Christ In his account of the last Judg ment. 'For I was hungered and ye gave me meat; 1 was athlrst, and ye gave me drink; I was a stranger, and ye took mo In; naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, anil ye visited me; I was In prison, and ye came unto me.' "We are to comply with the great plan In order to be partakers of the blessings in store for those who would 44 The Laborer is Worthy of His Hire."

Take my yoke upon you, and lenrn of me: for I nm meek nnd lowly In heart, nnd ye shnll find rest unto your souls. Kor my yoke Is easy, nnd my burden Is light.' "In this mortnl or dying life we are to battle nnd struggle against sickness nnd dnnth, but Christ, the Great Phy sician, has revealed the fact that If we follow His directions we shall take on new bodies, wherein Is no sin, no dis ease, no death. So let us continue In well-dQlng. seeking for honor, glory, Immortullty.cternni life through Christ, the Great Physician." THEATERS ARE THREATENED. Central Labor Union May Boycott Them. The Central Labor Union held n very well attended meeting yesterday after noon In Carpenters hall. President Mnrtln D. Flnherty presided nnd a. number of importnnt matters wero brought up for the consideration of thop present. The final arrangements for the Labor Day celebration today were perfected and from the reports offered by the committees In charge everything will pjs off smoothly and ns plnnned. The horseshoers delegates reported that a number of livery stables ctllt rave their horses shod In non-union shops. A committee was appointed to confer with them nnd request them to have their horses shod by union work men In the future. The Thentrlcnl Workers' Union re ported thnt they Were being discrimi nated against since they formed a union, nnd that the thentrlcal man agers did not appear to be fnvorablo to union labor. A committee was also appointed' to wait on the theatrical men and endeavor to persuade them to employ union labor only. If they do not ngreo to this the committee W to mil a meeting of the Central Labor Union to consider the auestlon of boycotting those theatres In which union labor Is not treated fairly. The delegates from the Mlnrs Union nsked If the boycotts declared ns a result of the building trades strike were still In force. They were In formed thnt thev were still on nnd thnt they would not be raided until the Ixfy cottod firms had made their peace vith the building trades council nt the latter's hcadquaiters, 400 Lackawanna aveni'e.
