Connell Saturday at Noon. v What the Spread Consisted of. The newsboys dinner given Saturday by J. L. Connell must have proved quite as enjoyable to the giver as the reclDlcnts. Over one 'hundred boys responded to the Invitations and If they didn't have a good time no hundred boys ever "lid. The tables wero set In one of the spacious rooms on the fourth iloor of the Connell building. The walls were tastefully decorated with greens and flags and the tables them selves weie made emphatically Indi cative of the merry season with the same favors. Hanley was the caterer and his orders were "nothing but tho best and lots of it." There wasn't tho shadow of a fault to llnd with the way he carried out these directions. If you doubt It nsk your newsboy. This Is what made tho boys say "gee whiz!:" Bnnit Turkey, with Cranberry Sauce. -Mashed Potatoes. Corn. Peas. Celery. Bread and Butter Sandwiches.. Cake. Mince Tie. Coffee. Apples. Oranges. Candy. Ice Cream. There was only one regret accom panying, all the feast and that was aptly expressed by 11 two-headed ur chin In "It's too bad we've only one appetite." To make the thing real swell Mr. Connell must needs have souvenirs. Each boy having carefully laid his napkin on the table and wiped his mouth on his coat sleeve was usheied Into an adjoining room, sized up and presented with a suit of the best wool en underwear the Lackawanna Knit ting mills can turn out. Bas of can dy and oranges were thrown In fir good measure and then the boys took their departure full of goodies and gratitude. Mr. Connell came up from his office on the floor below to see that every thing was running smoothly and was greeted with enthusiastic cheers. Time and again throughout the feast some boy would break out In "What's the matter with Mr. Connell" and the heartiness of the response left no doubt as to what the boys thought. CHBISTMAS AT THE HOSPITAL. Patients Had a Royal Celebration on Saturday Night. Christmas was celebrated in hearty fashion at the Lackawanna hospital, Saturday night. Nearly all of the patients were moved into ward 1, where 11 handsome Christmas tree was set up and decorated in a manner which caused the dozen or so of youngsters who occupy the children's ward to open their eyes wide with astonishment and glee. Every patient was presented with a large stocking full of candy, fruit, nuts, etc., and In addition useful and pretty gifts were made to each. A kincomatograph exhibition given was thoroughly enjoyed by the pa tients, and the antics of a professional Santa Claus drew forth prolonged shouts of amusement. Mrs. E. N. WII lard was the pilme mover in preparing this Christmas entertainment, and to her went forth the thanks of every patient in the big room. Today at noon the patients will nil enjoy a Christmas dinner, which will bo served in tho main ward. THE PRINCETON MUSICIANS. Scranton Has Prepared to Make Their Visit a Pleasant One. Tho Princeton Glee and Mandolin clubs will occupy no small part of thr. attention of Scranton today. Anything Prlncetonesquo can always rely upon a warm welcome heie, but this year especial interest centers In tho visit of the musicians from the fact that, their leader is a Scranton boy, Harry I.athropo, son of Attorney W. 1).

Smoke the "Hotel Jermyn" cliar, 10c IN HONOR OF THE BIRTH OF SAVIOR SPECIAL SERVICES HELD IN THE CHURCHES. All of tho Christian Churches of the City, with tho Exception of tho Catholic, Episcopal and Lutheran, Had Their Distinctive Christmas Exercises Yesterday In Many In stances Special Music Was a Fea ture of the Services Sermons Ap propriate to the Occasion. Tho glorious festival ot Christmas was yesterday celebrated In all ot the Christian churches throughout tho city with tho exception of the Roman Catholic, Episcopal and Lutheran, the latter reserving their special celebra tions for today. The extremely disagreeable weather prevailing yesterday prevented the ser vices from being as well attended as they might have been under more aus picious circumstances, but all of tho churclus were fairly well lllled at both services. Tho services at the First Presby terian church were perhaps ot ns nn elaborate n nature ns any in the city. The morning sermon was delivered by Hev. S. O. Logan, D. D., pastor emer itus of the church, who officiated owing to the illness of Rev. James McLeod, the pastor- He took as his theme, "And He Shall Ho Called Wonderful," and dwelt especially on the Incarnation of Christ, lefening to it as the most stupendous fact In the universe. At this service a number of Ch' litmus anthems were rendered by the church choir. In tho afternoon at 4 o'clock the an nual Sunday school exercises wero con ducted. A number of Chtlstmns carols wore sung at this service by the chil dren nn! an address was delivered bv A. W. Dickson, the superintendent of the Sunday schools. The crowning feature of the diy, however, was the sacred cantata, "The Coming of the King," which was rend erel In the evening by a chorus of thirty-eight voles under the direction of Prof. John CT. Watklns. it Is doubt ful If a more beautifully rendered or more elaborate Chtlstmas musical ser vice was ever heard before In this city. Solos were endered by Mrs. Kathryn Thlele. Mrs. II. S. Keller, David Stephens and David Jenkins, and thero were numerous trios, part chorus and full chorus, notable among which was the trio of the three Mngi rendered by Messis. Stephens, Jenkins and Post. In fact, so universal was the praise of the cantata that it has been decided to re peat it upon the return to the city of Dr. McLeod. SECOND PRESBYTERIAN. At the Second Presbytetlan church. Organist J. M. Chance pieparod spe cial Christmas selections for morning and evening services yesterday, which were cnjoyablv listened to by large audiences. Th;; usual church choir rendered the selections In the morn ing, with Mr. Chance at the organ. The evening pervice consisted of a Christmas song1 service, and was giv en by the quartette, choir and chuicn. choral society, accompanied by the Sabbath school orchestra and crg'an. All the selections were of a high or der und wero given in a most artis tic and devotional style. The choir work was excellent, the soloists thor oughly artistic, and the orchestra with grand organ accompaniment was a line support of the body of singers. Miss Mabel Ronnie rendered the or gan prelude "Meditation," by Gullmant and the postlude Fugue, In G minor, by Bach, In a very finished style, evidencing rare talent. The anthems: "Brightest and Best," by Buck. "O Holy Night," by Eyer, wete beauti ful numbers and much enjoyed. Miss Black sang "The New Born King," by Hammerel, in superb voice and style. .Miss Garaenn was thoro ughly artistic In tho singing of "The Birthday of a King," by Heidlinger, and Mr. I'.eynon nevei sang better than ho did In the solo, "Hark, What Mean Those Holy Voices," by Rossini. Tho line playing cf tho Sabb.uh school orchestia was heard to a great advantage in an andcr.to, by Schu mann. Charles Doersam. accompanlM on tho organ and gave as a solo "Th' Virgin's Prayer." by Masianet. This young musician is an organist and accompanist of exceptionally flno abil ity and artistic temperament. Mr. Chance directed with grace, taste and perfect assurance. The church was beautifully decorated with palms and fei ns. PASTOR'S SERMON. The Christmas sermon was delivered by the pastor. Rev. Charles E. Rob inson. D. D.. in the morning. He took as his text Hebrews 2, II: "For as much, then, as the children are par takers of the flesh and blood, He also Himself likewise took part of tho same." The doctor showed that the Christ mas theme of the incarnation bound the verses of this chapter veiy closely together. He brought out, too, in the exposition, the 1 elation between this chapter and the prayer of our Lord in the seventeenth chapter of John. "The children and their manv sons to be brought to glory, being partakers of flesh and blood" It behooved Christ to be made In all parts like unto them. It was tho behoof of His solemn promise, pledging His life Itself to their ledemptlon, which led Him to empty Himself ot Ills heavenly glory to be born of a Virgin. Ho did It to deliver "tho children" from bondage. The doctor said that when Dr. Howo gave his time and the h'sl of his life to set Laura Brldgeman. blind, deaf and dumb free fmni her bondage there was something In his uatuie that was llko Christ's, being made like unto "the children" to deliver them. When a nation takes up the pain and sacrl lice and awful burden of war to de liver a race from tyranny thero Is something Chrlst-llko In the nation. Tho Son of God took on Him our nature that it might be possible for Him to die and by His dpath to de stroy him that had tho power of death and redeem "the children." One great feature of that deliverance was the redemption of our lives fiom the bond age of materialism. One great temp tation Is to depend upon possessions upon having things, Instead ot being true men In Christ Jesus. The Ufa which Christ lived here was the op position to that temptation and mudo it clear that the true life does not con sist In tho nbundaiH'o of possessions, but In God-like character. Another characteristic of that deliverance Is In redemption from tho bondage of slu, and Anally from the pain of death. In closing, the speaker paid a warm (Continued on l'uge 4.J ' HAS GONE TO HIS MOTHER. Young Herbert Taylor Released front tho County Jail. Herbert Taylor, the llttlo fellow who was committed to the county Jail, charged with larceny, was yestetday taken from tho Jail, and 1b now with his mother In New Jersey. As hns already been stated in these columns, the boy's father and mother wero dlvoiced about four years ago, tho boy going to the mothor. Tho father, however, It Is alleged, kid napped him mid took him to Newi Haven, Conn., where, after a period of suffering nnd nbus;. tho boy ran awny. He says he lies traveled all over this part of the country, and It was only about ten days ago that he came to this city. Hero he fell In with a gnng of youthful thieves, nnd In their company committed depreda tions, which resulted in his arrest. Chief of Police Rpblln? received messages from both 'tl.t boy's father and mother, nsklng for thei lad's 111" tody, hut after hearing Hip facts of the case, he decided that tho mother was tho proper person to take charge of him. Since her separation from her hus band she has again married, and Is now the wife of n man by the name of Jenkins. Saturday night the latter arrived In the city, und yesterday morning went out to the county Jail. Young Tnylor Immediately recog nized him with Jov, nnd In his com pany left the Jail Jenkins and his wife live in a small town near Pater son. New Jersey, nnd together young Taylor and his stepfather left tho city yesterday for their home. TRIED TO KILL HERSELF. Lena Kabatschnick, of Raymond Court, Preferred Death to a Sec ond Step-Mother. Sad and depressed, Lena Kabat schnick, a forlorn deaf and dumb ghl who resides In Raymond court, at tempted to end her life yesterday by bucking nt her throat with a razor. She did not Injure herself feerlously. Lena Is 23 years of age and the daugl ter ot Myer Kabatschnick, a peddler who lives In Rnymond court, in the, rear of the Lackawanna hospi tal. Last week Kabatschlnck was man led for tho third time, much against the wishes of his daughter, who did not relish the idea of having a second stepmother. One trial of that was all she could endure. When Kabatschlnck brought his lat est bride home last week his daugh ter left his home and assumed tho duties of a servant In the house ot Wolf Seidman, next door. Her father did not Hic that and neither did his fi lends. They told her sho would sum r dire penalties unless she leturned to her father's house. This frightened her and yesterday she was further put In terror by a neigh bor with whose children she had some trouble. About 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon she went out on the porch of the house to do some washing and soon afterwards her little sister found her lying on the porch with her neck gashed and blood flowing from it. She informed her father anil the girl was carried Into her father's apartments and Dr. "Weaver and Dr. Weisenberg. of the Lackawanna hos pital summoned. They decided that the girl was not Injured to such an extent as to make her removal to th hospital neecessary and after caring for her wounds allowed her to re main where she was. Ti.e razor with which she tried to kill herself was dull, otherwise she would have Inflictel more seilous and perhaps fatal in juries. ONE OF THE MAINE'S VICTIMS.

The remains will be Interred In the old Darling street cemetery, Wilkes B.uie. THIRD STRANGELY AFFLICTED. Relative of the Dead Duffy Boys Taken 111 at Their1 Home. "William Tyivll. of (Second street, a relative of the soicly. afflicted Duffy family, of Keyset' avenue, who was a close iiieud of the two boys who died, Is lying at death's door as result of a sudden nnd strange Illness. John Duffy, aged twenty-eight years, came home from Cuba three weeks ago, broken down in health. Soon after his homecoming his brother, Patrick, aged twenty-one, took ill suddenly and, after a brief siege, died. "Wednesday he was burled, and when the family returned from the funeral, John, the elder bon, went Into a state of collapse and died within a few hours. Tyiell had associated with the. boys and attended the funeral. Friday night he was taken suddenly 111 while at the Duffy home and the nymptunis being strikingly similar to those which maiked the cabe of tho Duify boys, his friends became exceedingly alarmed. That their fears weio not unfounded was pioven by the fact that he sank rapidly and at a late hour last night was not expected to live. Kitchener in Malta. Multu, Dec. 21.

GREAT CROWD OF HOLIDAY SHOPPERS THEY THRONGED STREETS OF THE CITY SATURDAY. After Nightfall There Was a Tre mendous Rush on the Part of Be lated Shoppers to Get Their Christ mas Buying Done Before the Close of the Stores Many Places Had to Keep Open Until Midnight Police Were on tho Lookout for Shop lifters. "A dense mass ot humanity," that phrase so dear to tho heart of every descriptive writer, mny be with all tiuth applied to the sc no presented on Scranton's main thoroughfares Sat urday evening, for a grave doubt ex ists In the minds of many as to whether such a hustling, iostllng, el bowing and madly pushing holiday throng of people was ever seen at one time In this city before. The eleventh hour purchasers of Christmas gifts were out in force, as well as the shrewd Individuals whose annual habit It is to wait until the night before Christmas In the hope of obtaining some particular article at a bargain rate. Tho young man, too, was In evidence, who after weeks of earnest and painful meditation as to what was the most suitable gift for his lady love and realizing that It was now or never, would rush Into a store in desperation and purchase perhaps tho first thing that met his gaze. STORES DENSELY CROWDED. Tho principal stores in the central city were literally Jammed with cus tomers, and In some cases tho aisles became so Jammed with people that passage through tho store was impos sible to any one short of a college foot hall player. And the crowds lasted so long that it was nearly the midnight hour before several of the stores closed their doo s. which Is an unusual thing, as generally every year tho rush ends nbout 10.30 o'clock. "This Is a harvest time for shop lifters," said the floor walker of one of the big stores, ns he watched tho surg ing crowd swaying back and forth past the glft-Iaden counteis, "but we've got sev-pral employes mixed up among the customers and any one caught will be turned over to the police without do lay." Detective Molr and two ot tho mem bers of the police force In plain clothes were on duty all day Saturday circu iting through the various stores and tht-ii- presence may have caused tho "kleptomaniacs" to think several times before taking anything, as" only two or three petty thefts wore brought to the nttentlon of the heads of the various establishments. LARGEST IN HISTORY". Taking all In all, last Saturday's holiday trade Is counted the largest in the history of the city's mercantile in terests. When the last bundle-laden pedestrian had passed down the street and the lights had been all extin guished, and tho only one in sight wn.s the solitary policeman down the block, the gentleman with the philosophic mind turned to his friend and said: "Did It ever occur to you that Christ mas is the one time In the year when everybody, rich and poor, young and old. are imbued with the same spIrU, and what a spirit! tho spirit of un selfishness." The friend said: "Yes, that's so,' but he's been thinking it over since and wonders If he meant It. Beecham Bids for Kipling MS. Among those who have made the highest bids lor the oilg'nal manu script of Rudyard Kipling's poem, "The Absent-Minded Beggar," which Is be ing sold for the benefit of the wives and children of the British Reservists who have been ordered to South Af rica, is Mr. Beecham, of St. Hden3, England, who offered $323 for It. Mr. Beecham's name Is familiar to every newspaper reader In America, us he Is proprietor of the famous pills which bear his name. In addition to being a lover of things artistic, he Is also a most public spirited man. The great manufacturing center of St. Helens, of which his enormous foctory Is one of the laigest Industiles, recog nized his good services to the town by electing him recently to tho mayoralty, backed by the unanimous petition of the municipal council of St. Helens. Without doubt that executive ability which has assisted him so materially in building up his vast enterprise, will be of great service to his fellow townsmen. Smokers' Specialties.
