chairman called the meeting to order
nt 10 o'clock every seat In the room

by the chairman, Introducing Mr. Vos
burg us the first speaker. Ho referred
to the Republican party as the party
of Lincoln, the emancipator; Grant,
the fighter; Garfield, the martyr, and
McKlnley, the expansionist, and urged
the Republican voters present to glvo
tho ticket nominated their heartiest
support at tho polls today. Mr. Vos

Wllkesbarre on an Inspection tour of
tho Ninth regiment. He regretted his
absence and assured the club that only
business of the utmost Importance
could keep nlm away.
Campbell Hughes, president of the
club, then addressed his audience In
fiery and stirring words.
Mayor Molr made one of his cheery,
hearty speeches, which brought forth
roars of approval from the crowd. Ho
spoke of the fact that no negro had
ever been executed for treason In this
country nnd that they had never been
disloyal to the Union. Ho called on
all present to stand by the party and
said that the Republican party expects
a unanimous vote from the Keystone
club. His speech was greeted with en
thusiastic approval and applause.
Several resolutions were adopted
pledging earnest support to the Re
publican nominees.
FUNERAL OF MRS. E. L. BUCK.
Services Conducted by Drs. McLcod
and Logan.
The funeral of Mrs. E. L. Buck was
held yesterday from the family resi
dence on Madison avenue. So large
was tho concourse of friends in atten
dance that they could not be accom
modated within the house.
Masses of flowers, particularly white
chrysanthemums, were everywhere,
and no less than the sorrowful faces of
uii present were a silent tribute to the
love and honor In which the dead was
held.
The services were conducted by Rev.
Dr. James McLcod, assisted by Rev.
Dr. S. C. Logan. The latter spoke
with feeling of hl3 long and pleasant
acquaintance with Mrs. Buck. Her
busy, active, beautiful life was de
scribed, and Its value to the church,
to charity and the rare home life was
pictured. Dt. McLeod followed In an
eloquent tribute and tho confidence
of the Christian In a blessed existence
beyond the grave.
The pall-bearors were: Hon. H. A.
Knapp, Colonel E. II. Ripple, Hon. W.
L. Connell, Messrs. A. W. Dickson,
Theodore Wolfe, F. S. Barker. The
funeral was under the direction of
William Price.
JOINT AUDITING COMMITTEE.
Met Last Evening! and Held Up Two
Eill3 Presented.
The Joint auditing committee of
councils met last evening In the office
of City Clerk Lavolle. Just barely a
quorum was present and a very large
number of bills were parsed.
Frank Marshall sent In a bill for
$19.50 for services as Inspector of the
Enst Market street pae. The bill was
approved by City Engineer Phillips and
seemed all right until It finally dawned
on the members that the pave had been
condemned by tho city engineer. It
was thought very peculiar therefore,
that the latter should have approved
this bill when the fact that tho pave
did not como up to the standard sho.ws
that tho Inspector was derelict In his
duty. It was decided to refer the bill
back to the engineer for an explana
tion. A bill from the board of health for
$S7 for the bacteriological examination
recently made of the city water, also
caused considerable dlcusslon as to
what fund it should be charged to,
there being only $2.'. left at present In
tho Incidental fund. A committee con
sisting of Messrs. Roche, Tewkesbury
and Oodshall was appointed to look in
to the matter and make a repoit at the
next meeting.

VOTE IT IS THOUGHT
WILL N0TJ5E HEAVY
TWENTY THOUSAND IS CONSID
ERED A FAIR ESTIMATE.
The Apathy That Characterizes the
Campaign Is Causing No Uneasi
ness to County Chairman Vosburg,
nB He Is Confident That His Com
mittee Can Out-distance the Oppo
sition in tho All-Important Work
of Getting Out the Vote General
Results Are a Foregone Conclusion.
Today the voters of Lackawanna
county will be called upon to express
their choice for a state treasurer, Jus
tice of the supreme court, Judge of the
superior court, two county commis
sioners nnd two county nudltois. It
Is not expected that there will be a.
large vote cast In this county, It being
nn off year, and there being little It
any question as to the result.
Locally the only speculation Is as to
which of the two Democratic candi
dates In each race will succeed In get
ting third place, and which of the Re
publicans will lead.
Twenty thousand Is a fair estimate
of the vote that will be cast. The
weather bulletin nt midnight had
a strong Republican llavor "Fair nnd
cool." '
Republican County Chairman Vos
burg said last night that the apathy
characterizing the campaign was caus
ing him no uneasiness. It Is a ques
tion of getting out the vote, he said,
and tho Republican committee Is satis
fied it will not be outdone in this mat
ter by the opposition. The commutes
Is thoroughly organized, the work
mapped out In detail and everything
highly satisfactory.
Colonel Fltzsimmons on the other
hand is spreading a feather bed for
his party's fall by murmuring quietly,
but not at all secretly, that his com- i
mlttee was handicapped by the fallute
of the state committee to extend aid.
County Chairman Vosburg requests I
all Republican committeemen to get j
tho returns Just ns soon ns they are i
completed and telephone them to the
headquarters ut the Central Republl- I
can club rooms. j
The Democratic munagers will re- j
celve returns at 134 Wyoming avenue, j

AN EXPOSE OF GAMBLING.
John P. Qulnn Was Heard in Guern
sey Hall.
An Interested audience listened at
Guernsey hall last night to the lecture
by John P. Qulnn exposing the pit
falls of gambling nnd showing young
men bow foolish It Is to try to beat
professional sporting men at their own
games. Mr. Qulnn demonstrated by
object lessons that every gambling de
vice In operation is crooked and Illus
trated how easily tho operator can
manipulate results to BUlt his purposes,
Tonight Mr, Qulnn will In tho same!
place lecture on prison life nnd show
the garb worn In prisons. Ho used to
travel In a special car and lecture In
churches and Young Men's Christian
association halls, but found that the
class of men whom ho desired to reach,
the men who gamble or are liable to
b led Into gambling, can best ba
reached In the present manner.
He carries with him more than forty
gambllngdevlces which he exposes, and
he ran read any pack of cards from the
back, telling Just what appears on the
face side. Every young man should
hear him. It Is a liberal education In
the wiles of the wicked.
GOTHIC ARCHITECTURE.
Prof. A. T. Van Laer Took That as
the Subject of the First Lec
ture of tho Series.
The first In the series of four lllus
tiated lectures on art was given last
night In St. Luke's parish hall by Pro
fessor A. T. Van Laer, the well known
lecturer and authority on art. The sub
ject was "Gothic Architecture," and
the audience represented much of the
culture and higlu'st social standing o
Scranton.
Professor Van Luer seemed to be
laboring under the disadvantage of
hoarseness last evening nnd his man
ner of spe'sch was a trlllle halting at
times, but the subject matter of his
lecture wns fa-sclnntlng, while tho
Btereoptlcou views shown were fault
less. In beginning the subject he gave
a rapid review of the early architecture
speaking of the simplicity of Egyptian
temples with the two bupports near
together, with the architrave above,
built with a view to solidity and dur
ability alone, and illustrating by a
picture of a temple at Luxor, and Inci
dentally mentioning the one at Karnac
and the singular tulns nt Stonehcngo,
England,
From these lie passed on to the Greek
architecture, showing the Parthenon
and giving a section of the construction
with the capital nnd abacus to Illus
trate the marvelous skill In fitting the
great stones so that no cement or mor
tar wan required.
The Coliseum portrayed early Roman
architecture with the lust knowledge
of the arch. Then followed the basilica
of the early Christian period illustrated
by the Church of San Lorenzo and suc
ceeded by the Romanesque, an example
of which we have In Trinity church,
Boston, built by Richardson.
From the development of the Roman
esque was shown the gradual evolu
tion of the Gothic, 1he pilasters glvirg
way to the flying buttto?ses and the
round to the pointed arch. The piera
wore capable of Indefinite extension
crentlng any number of bays and the
arch finally became the support of the
celling, the walls being tnorely screen
Byzantine atchltecture was not touched
t'pon ns having no Influence In the
Gothic.
The Fiencli Gothic was described at
some length In the famous burial place
of kings, St. Denis, and a comparative
view of tho Romanesque and Gothic
was given in which the piers of the
latter occupied but one-tenth of the
ground space while the former takes
up from one-fourth to one-fifth.
Tho advantage of tho distribution of
weight on the Hying buttress was ox
plained with the additional space giv
en to the clere-story by the added
height of the ground arch.
Exquisite views of Notro-Dame, the
cathedrals of Chartres, Cologno.
Worms and Sienna, were shown with
the cathedtnl of St. Ouen nnd the Pal
ais de Justice at Rouen. The cathe
drals of Seville and Burgos wore giv
en as representing Gothic architecture
In Spain where, however, tho ugly r
nulssanco ehoro destroys the harmony
of he Interior.
But by far the most Interesting por
tion of the lecture was the masterly
description of the Gothic art In Eng
land, where It Is found to a greater
or less extent In Lincoln, Lichfield, Sal
isbury, the most pleasing of all 'In Its
unity of design and Its beautiful cen
tral tower, Wells, with Its lovely west
