EVENTS OF DAY IN
WEST SCRANTON
MEN'S MEETING IN ST. PAT
HICK'S CHURCH.
Arranging for the Fair to Be Held
During the Holidays Funeral of
Henry Phillips John Edlnger's
Experience with a Tramp Mar
riage of Fred Reese nnd Sarah Da
visChurch Services Yesterday.
Other Minor Mention of General
Interest.
A meeting of the male members of
St. Patrick's congregation was hold In
the basement of the church last even
ing for the purpose of making arrange
ments for the fair and festival which
will be held during the holidays. Itev.
J. 13. Whelan presided. Committees
were appointed to arrange for the con
tests and music, which will be features
of the undertaking. Among the for
mer will be a contest for a B Hat sil
ver cornet which has been secured.
Committees comprising three mem
bers each from the several divisions of
the A. O. H., Father Mathews, I. C.
B. U. St. Leo's, St. Paul's and other
societies In the parish were appointed
to notify their respective organizations
of the fair and to enlist their co-operation
and support in the undertaking.
The committees will make their re
ports at another meeting to be held
next Sunday evening at 7.30 o'clock.
The ladles of the parish who have
been collecting articles for the fair,
will meet In the church at 7.30 o'clock
tomorrow evening and make their re
ports. From present Indications the
fair will be a great undertaking and
the proceeds will be devoted to paying
off the indebtedness on the parochial
residence.
ST. PATRICK'S ORPHANAGE.
The annual collections for the sup
port of St. Patrick's orphanage are
now being taken up in the varlbus
parishes of the Scranton diocese. The
contributions at St. Patrick's church
have already been taken up and
amount to J120.
An Impression prevails that the
money donated to the Institution by
the late Judge Handley will be used
for the support of the orphanage, but
this Is a mistake, as the trustees can
not touch the money for that purpose.
The Institution Is supported by the
free will offering of the people and
the annual collections are being taken
by order of Bishop Hoban.
B. Eynon, Mrs. Mary E. Bcnshaw,
Miss Agnes Joseph, Thomas Roberts
and David E. Hughes.
Tho pall-bearers were Evan Jones,
Henry Wood, Peter Baker, Thomas
Price, R. A. Teal and Thomas D. Wil
liams, George Thrclfall, Henry Ev
ans, John Dolan, William Merton and
Albert Saycrs were the flower-bearers.
Interment was made In the Washburn
street cemetery.
ENCOUNTER WITH A TRAMP.
John Edlnger, engineer at the elec
trics llgjit plant near tho gas house,
had an encounter with n tramp last
Friday night, which he will not soon
forget. Tho hobo entered the boiler
room to sleep, and after being ejected
found refuge In an empty car nearby.
The tramp was ordered off the prem
ises, and Just na ho emerged from the
car struck Edlnger a vicious blow In
the face. The latter succeeded In over
powering tho tramp, nnd telephoned to
police headquarters for assistance.
After detaining the hobo sevetal hourj
and receiving no assistance from tho
police, the Intruder was allowed to de
part. Ho did not go away, however, with
out a severe trouncing, and It is safe
to say he will not encounter Mr. Edln
ger again.. A second call was made
on the police for assistance, but no
ofllcer put In an appearance. The en
gineer received a slight cut over his
left eye, but the tramp got all that
was comln' to him, and more, If the
report is true about the affair.
Street Presbyterian church ycaterdayi

R. Foster, of the Sumner avenuo

Its prospects for unburdening tho In
debtedness of tho building. The even
ing service was of special Interest. The
school children returned their tithes
books, which were given out a month
ago. The amount received was $112.27.
The Thanksgiving services at tho
First Baptist church were conducted
last evening. Special music was ren
dered by the choir, and addresses were
