DIPHTHERIA PREVALENT. But Opinions of Physicians' Differ Regarding the Disease. There had been tip to yesterday twenty-nine cases of diphtheria re ported to the necretury of the board of health, an average of tlvo cases a day. last week there were forty-live cases reported and for the past six weeks the number of cases reported has been unusually high. Health Olllcer Allen says that the diphtheria Is not of a very malignant typo and that It Is due to the careless ness of the majority of people who do not seem to realize that the disease li highly transmlssablo. Dr. Allen does not think that It Is duo to bad sewerage, drainage or drinking water. He has Just received n report from the state board of health chemist, who has been making a bac teriological examination of tho water and, while the doctor says that In some cases tho water Is not what It ought to be, tho disease cannot bu traced to It. Coroner Roberts Is Inclined to think the majority of the cases reported nre not diphtheria nt all, hut rather severe cases of sore throat, where a pseuilo mcnibrane, not allied with the true dlph'therntlc membrane, only Is pres ent. In fact, ho says that only one true case of the disease has come un der his own personal observation. NEW OFFICERS INSTALLED. They Will Havo Chnrgo of tho Af fairs of Lackawanna Lodge.

Sttne, one of the members of the Catnsauquu firemen, who appeared In tho great parade In this city, last week, in a letter to a friend, Isaac Harris, of this city, says some thlng3 which are very flattering to tho citizens of this city nnd Just tho reverse to tho natives of Wllkes-IJarre. Among other things he writes: "Tho saying 'Out of sight, out of mind,' ns appeared In a Wllkes-Barre paper, can certainly not bo applied to the citizens of your beautiful city. The boys have settled down to the oft-times monotonous routine of dally work, but not without tho most nattering ex pression of their impressions of Scran ton, and the kind treatment of your most liberal minded citizens. "Poor Jealous Wllkes-Ilarre had bet ter take an object lesson from her neighbor Instead of belching out In potty, malicious and childish editorials. Wo havo no fault to find, .but on the other hand have cause for nothing but prnlse for our treatment. The company wo were assigned to, the Phoenix Chemical of your city, gave us a royal nnd most hearty welcome and all tho boys appreciate It." HIGH SCHOOL ROOTERS. They Were Named nt a Meeting Held Yesterday. A meeting of tho young men o the Scranton high Fchool was -held after tho morning session yesterday for tho purpose of appointing rooters for to day's game with Lackawanna. Mr. Wagner, the1 vice-principal, presided. The following were appointed: Messrs. Ltttston, Acker, Klrkbrlde, Sanderson and Grant. Every boy was cautioned to come '.o the game with colors and his throat In good condition. Mr. Horan, tho manager of the foot ball team, made a very fitting statement, saying that If the boys would come prepared tn yell and encourage the players he would assure them that tho foot ball team would return Monday morning with victory perched upon their shoul ders. This remark was greeted with general applause from the pupils. WINDING UP ITS AFFAIRS. Firemen's General Committee Held a Meeting Last Night..

Ho especially solicits the trade ANNUAL DONATION DAY AT THE HOME TUE3DAY WILL MEAN MUCH FOR THAT INSTITUTION. Something About The Splendid Work It Does nnd the People Who Are Cared for Wltnln vs Walls Worn Out Mothers Find Here a Refuge During the Declining Years of Their Lives Where the Little Ones Cared for In the Homo Come from and Where They Go. Next Tuesdays-Ill be the unnual do nation day of tho Home for the Friend less. There are people who labor un der the hallucination that this institu tion Is conducted on ti scale of magni ficence approaching tho Waldorf-Astoria or even the Jermyn. They im agine thnt,tho little folkB up there fare sumptuously every dny nnd are clothed in richly embroidered frocks and thut tjie old ladles sit down and visit of afternoons in stiff rustling silks and with dainty little grandmotherly caps of real lace on their heads. There nrc those who actually fancy that these elderly Inmates wear heirlooms of dia monds on their soft white hands and chat over tho days of their past mag nificence nmld surroundings scarcely less fine. It Is somewhat currenly believed that the new building was constructed under n most extravagent outlay pf the peo ple's money and that the debt threat ening Its usefulness was Incurred through bad advice and In unnecessary frills. The fact is, It was Incurred un der the brightest prospects of selling tho old home. it Is a pity that all the friends of tho Home, critical and otherwise, d i not pay a visit to the Institution and satisfy nil their doubts as to the tine worthiness of the object toward which tho public Is asked to contribute. AROUT THE IHTILDING. They will find a building handsome in design, It Is true, but one with no extravagance of design or finish nnd built for all time, not for the present only. They will see walls harsh and staring In their white untlnted surface, with floors not of hard wood but sim ply stained for purposes of cleanliness and health. They will see the plainest possible fittings: tho old ladles' rooms each with a white Iron bed, an Inex pensive ingrain carpet, a cheap dress ing table and a chair or two, probably those treasured through years of ad versity, the whole costing about $40 when new. On the table may be noticed some crocheted mats or a bunch of paper flowers or a few trilling keep sakes from some friend who has llttlo to spare from her own stores. Rut there will bo no relics of Dast splendor for tho old ladles In our Home for the Friendless are not of the grand dame type who have rolled In wealth and who delicate frames are unused to the plain nnd homely life they now ex perience. Most of them are simply poor friendless old women who have worked and suffered through a hard life and who now, old nnd sick and weary by reason of many Infirmities nnd sorrows, have knocked at the wide, door of the Home for the shelter which they are thankful enough to enlov. They nre the worn out mothers of ungrateful, worthless children who have driven them out of the miserable homes they had a right -to share. They aro the old unwelcome grandmothers to whom was grudged the few crusts they ate. They aro the feeble aunts who, broken down with drudgery In the service of ungrateful relations, have been finally driven forth to seek a kinder heart beneath the mantle of charity. WITHOUT MONEY OR PRICE. They enter without money and prlco. Unlike any other institution of the kind known, no admission fee of a hundred dollars or more Is asked. Few of them could have secured refuge otherwise. A visitor to the home will find these nged Inmates busy with various tasks. They are preparing vegetables for the next meal or fruit for canning. They are darning the children's stockings and often the managers come In nnd look with dismay at the Infinitude of pains taken stitches In those appallingly big holes, and no more slgnlflcent examnle of the rigid economy practiced at the homo can be cited than these same lit tle stockings which wear out so fast. Then they sew day after day the great balls of carpet rags nnd prepare nil these for the carppt strips which cover the corridors and He before tho children's beds and they mend tho old garment and often work on now ones and the aged fingers aro busy from morning to night until at last there comes a day when the poor old body Is not able to rise, when tho matron ten derly shifts the aching head and quiets the restlessness with the gentle prom ise, "Tomorrow you will be better." Hut the morrow dawns with much of the care smoothed out of the tired old face, and there Is a brief little service In the great tower room, nnd another new grave under the hill In tho Home for the Friendless plot. After all, are you sorry you gave that subscription or sent that box of Jellies to the old ladles? THE CHILDREN. The little children, too, are not the children In the stories where some fine day a wonderful chain of circum stances reveals noble Uncage and a great name and fortune.

Borne times, too, they have a father or a mother in Jnll. Often they are so hap py ns to bo fatherless and motherless, for, Indeed, being nn orphan is not the worst fate In the world. If you are on orphan, there Is no drunken parent to ding you back to the hovel where de pravity rules. if you are an orphan, there Is no dls reputoble, vicious mother to Interfere when you might be adopted Into some pure lovely home nmld neonle of re finement and nobility r'hnractor where you might havo a Wtnco. If you nre an orphan there is no danger that some time a hideous, wicked wo man will trace you out nnd destroy all your happiness nnd hone of a future after tho law' has removed you from tho fond care of such a mother. Hut all these little children nre Inno cent nnd happy and comfortably pro vided for In this shelter. It Is only one In thirty In the history of tho Home who have turned out badly. Now that Is a good record. How many families can you number whoso nggregate of charncter will average twenty-nine out of thirty who are good and rosoecta bleV Are you sorry you sent that coat which belonged to your dead little daughter to cover the small form of one of these waifs nt tho Homo for the Friendless?

The Parents of Frank McNulty, an 11-Year-Old Boy Neglected Him in n Shameful Manner. Frank McNulty, nged It years, dld at tho home of his parents, 110 South Seventh street. Thursday evening, lifter a few days' Illness and without medical aid, and when the case was investigated yesterday tho fact was revealed thnt tho boy died of starva tion. When Undertaker Wymbs went to tho house yesterday to remove the body to the cemetery, he encountered a state of affairs which it seems almost Im possible could exist In a civilized com munity. Roth the father and mother lay on a bed drunk nnd asleep, with a scvcn-year-old child trying to arouse them. Coroner Roberts visited tho house nnd found thnt the boy's death was duo entirely to neglect and decided that an inquest was not necessary. Mrs. Duggan, agent for the associated charities, was notiPcd, and will look nfter tho child now In the parents' care. The remains of the unfortunate boy were interred In the Cathedral come tery. AN EXCITING RUNAWAY. Show Case Wrecked nnd a Peanut Stand Badly Demolished. H. H, Andrews yesterday left a horse attached to a light carriage In front of Samter's clothing house, on the Lack awanna avenue side. The animal was tied to a hitching post, but suddenly shied at a piece of paper the wind ble" toward It. When the horse bolted forward the fastening broke and the horse startsd down Penn avenue and got on tho Hide walk at Gallon's clothing store, where it smashed a large show-case. It then created' havoc with the peanut-vender at the corner. In the col lision with the peanut stand the car riage was wrecked and the horse was freed from it. Then the animal dashed down Spruce street to Franklin ave nue and along that thoroughfare to Vine street, where It took to the tracks of the Delaware and Hudson, starting toward the east on them and crossing the bridge on which the tracks cros.i Penn avenue. The animal was captured near the Delaware and Hudson freight house, where It was caught by Frank R. Coffin, the locnl agent of the Rem ington Typewriter company. He saw the horse dashing down Penn avenuo and had started In hot pursuit, with the above successful climax. As a result of the horse's Interesting llttlo outing, the animal Itself Is con siderably injured, and the buggy al most entirely ruined. CONTESTS CLOSE MONDAY. Plans for New Y. M. C. A.

Children of the City Are Compelled to Attend School nnd There Is n Good Observance Here of the Com pulsory Educational Bill Causes That Keep Children Away from tho Schools Children Can Only Be Compellod to Attend for Sixteen Weeks of the Term. Martin Joyce, the attendance olllcer of the Scranton board of control, sends the following to The Tribune for pub lication: While tho alms and purposes of tho In dustrial school for boys, now about to be founded In Scranton. under tho uutmlces of the Men's Guild club of St. Luke's parish, us published In yesterday's lssuo of Tho Tribune, nre In every respect both laudablo and commendable; yet, we must take exception to tho adverse criticism of Lincoln K. llrown, director of the Indus trial Bchool, touching tho attendance of children In our schools. Ho (Mr. llrown) tins expressed much surprise at tho gieat number of children to bo seen every day playing around tho streets during Bchool hours, nnd seems to think that ex tra efforts should bo made by the school authorities to compel their attendance. It mlKht be well to Inform Mr. llrown on that head, as we do not know to what extent ho Is familiar with our public school systcru In Scranton, and the sv.v tern under which tho parochial schools in tho cllv is carried out In regard to" at tendance. Has ho familiarized himself with tho compulsory education act of 1893, nnd Its operation in tho school district of Scranton? The net limits ages between S and 13 years. Children between S and 13 years nre obliged nnd compelled to attend school in Scranton, at least sixteen weeks dur ing the term, unless prevented by sick ness or some other unavoidable occur rence. Hut, wo do not slop at the limit; we endeavor to keep them In school as many days as possible during tho school yea r. We desire to call Mr. Hrown's attention to other'occaslons. Scranton has become noted as tho "city of conventions," and consequently pntrlotlc s-entlincnts. attrac tions, parades, etc.. have had a grout ten dency to draw children away from school. There nre besides several relig ious occasions, which children observe; and wo have no alternative but to grant those concessions to children, oven com ing within the ' mvlslons of the net of 1W3, so bmc ns we keep them In school, fit least sixteen weeks during the term. Seven thousand sevon hundred nnd eight pupils between S and 13 years were en rolled last year in tho public schools, nnd all hnd complied with the provisions or tho act or IS!).). 2,203 or tho same ages were enrolled In tho pnrochlnl schools, nnd nil were reported to us as having complied with the law. If Mr. Rrown has taken bis observa tions of the number of children "playing around tho streets" on or about those oc casions Just mentioned, certainly he has misconceived tho matter of compulsory attendance. Mr. Rrown must not form his criterion of the attendance of chil dren In our schools, should ho find a number of children 7 venrs of age, nnd others over 13 years playing nround tho streets. We find many of those ages around the streets, this lino weather, and nil wo can do Is to advise them to go to school, or request the parents to send thorn to school. Wo cannot compel them to ntlond ns they do not como within tho requirements of tho compulsory act. This current school term, commencing In September we had enrolled In the public schools 8.fi;2 pupils, between S nnd 13 years; in tho parochial schools 2,r33 pupils between S nnd 13 years, nnd only 21 pupils were re ported to us ns running away from school during September. There are some hundreds of bovs nnd girls about 13 years of age, who nre obliged to work, and might bo often found on tho streets during school hours. Wo know them end know that they have attended nluht schools. It Is not our purpose to enter Into controversy, but to set the matter In Its right light. $3.00 Shoes (Made for our trade.)
