IVti-r's Lutheran church Is unlnu in Its bounty of interior. Fancy a bit? music room at on side of which was a bhizln!? wood (Ire from which tin; odor of pine rose pleasantly. The soft slow of waxen candles showed walls covered with well chosen engravings', and photographs, rare tapestry and hits of old china, while branches of laurel and pine Rave a rhristmas tide effect. The cosy corners, the books everywhere, the oil paintings, tho palms, the curios for a back ground of pretty girls In charming costume made up a picture In the firelight not fooh to be forgotten. The rooms Indeed form a series of pictures in themselves. n informal programme was given which Included great talent of several cities. Miss Turnbull, the Haltlmore so prano, who win sing tinviTow night at the Klin Park organ recital, was one of the I'Veiilng's favorites. She sang eiulsit' songs in lii- beautiful voice.

A brilliant event In the pochl life) of the city took place last night In the form of the annual ball given by tho Hxcelslor Social club, nt Its club house on Washington avenue. The af fair was a gicat success, probably be ing one of the finest given In tho his tory of tho association. Tho committee In charge of th- even ing was made up of Max Troutfelt, I;. II. Kramer, Isadora Goodman and It. L. Levy, and their efforts to make the alfalr thoroughly successful were dem onstrated by tho evident euro and thoughtfulness with which everything had been nrranged. Marvin & Mulr, who were In charge of the floral decorations, had the ballroom beauti fully decorated. Iti '.ich corner was a prettily arranged bower, while along the walla were twined festoons of greens, draped In a graceful manner. One feature of the evening was tho number of debutantes present, several being on the floor nnd lending to tho general beauty of the picture pre sented, when the various waltzr-s, two steps, etc., wore In progress. At these, times the floor presented a magnificent sight, a splendid background to the dancers being provided by the finely embellished room which, with Its leafy decorations, more closely resembled a woodland dell than the conventional ballroom. The beautiful gowns of the ladles, and the graceful movements of the dancers, all combined with tha dreamy, soft music discoursed by Matter's orchestra, produced a pro found effect and one not easily to be forgotten. The musicians were enthroned on the platform In the rear of the hall, and were hidden from sight by a pic turesque mass of plants and foliage, from behind which melodious strains were heard, while the Instrumentalists remained Invisible. At 1 o'clock a very fine suppe: was served by Caterer E. Moses, A very large number of couples were on the floor, and besides the local members of tho club and their ladles were many guests from out of town. Among tho latter were: Wllkes-Parrc The Misses Emma Miller, Minnie David, Frances Hoff helmer, and Messrs. E. Uewlth. Millar Hubln, Leon Mendelsohnn, Edward Long and Hen Freeman. IJochester, N. Y.

The Newman Magazine club enjoyed one of Its periodical socials last night at Guernsey's hall. A musical and lit erary entertainment, progressive euchre and dancing comprised the evening's diversions. Solos by Miss Alice Burke and John T. Wntklns, and recitations by Thomas Larkin, made up the musical and liter ary programme. Bauer's orchestra fur nished the music for dancing. PERSONAL A. H.

The expected confoiencc yesterday morning between the representatives of the various coal companies In tha counties of Lackawanna and Luzerne nnd the representatives of the various local unions of tho United Mine work ers of America did not take place, aa none of tho companies sent represen tatives to the mooting. Tho delegates, however, mot both morning nnd nfternoon and transacted a large amount of business which in-cl- ded the calling of another confer en e for January IS. It is generally considered that it has been many years since aa large a gathering of organized mine workers as tills has been seen In this valley. The following Is the official report of yesterday's proceedings given nut by the press committee: , Convention of District No. 1, United Mine Workers of America, met In Guernsey hell, Jan. S, 1000. Morning session adjourned at 11.31 o'clock to pay a visit to the School of Mines on Wyoming avenue, nn Invi tation having been extended by Mr. Henshaw. Hopllos were received from some of the operators, of which tho following Is a specimen: "Jan. S, 1300. "To the Secretary of the U. M. W. of A. "Dear Sir: I am In receipt of your courteous Invitation to attend the con ference to be held tomorrow In Scran ton. While I fear that professional engagements hero may prevent my at tendance, I fully realize that there are evils of which you and your asso ciates can Justly complain and which should be considered. "1 wish to assure you and them, not only of my sympathy but of my co operation with any nnd every proper and useful effort that mav bo pu: forth to secure their removal. "Your evident willingness to discuss the situation with your employers Is indicative of the right spirit, and I am confident that It will bo met with a hearty response from all fair-minded men, among employers, employes .and nlso from the general public. "Yours very truly, WILL ENFORCE DEMANDS. Tho following resolution was adopt ed: "Resolved, That the different coal companies give a definite answer to the communication received from the secretary of this organization in re gard to a conference to be held on Jan. IS, 1900, at this place, falling In which means will bo adopted to en force our demands. An answer is re quested before the 15th Inst. "Address, Chns. J. Thalm, f3 Logan street, Wllkos-Barre, secretary pro tern." Also the following resolution "Resolved, That we reomtnond tho "Strat:,," a Tollsh papei. printed at Scranton, as tho only paper that has expressed at all tines sympathy for the worklngma ,. an.l that we ask ihe 'Stratz' to stand by us as in the past, and that wo as United Mine Workers of America, recommend this weekly to our Polish brethren as tho champion of our cause as worklngmon." A conference will be held In Guern sey's hall, Jan. IS, lVOft, at 10 o'clocit a. in. Referring to the editorial which ap peared In tho Sunday Free Press of Scranton, tho miners of District No. 1 say that It emanated from tho brain of one who Is evidently not In favor of a fair day's wages for the mine workers. From the tone of tho article every fair-minded person will say that tho person who penned these lines Is having his Joints lubricated with oil from tho tanks of the corporations who are forever grinding down the work ing class. They said there nro labor agitators among us and the foico will be Increased In tho near fu.ur. fo: tho miners of tho entire anthracite district now realize that their only hope of securing Justice lies In organ ization. Can the writer adance any reason why the anthracite miners have not been given an advance in wages when tho miners 'n all other sections of the country have had their wages Increased and tho price of coal has advanced in the marl;".. NECESSARIES HAVE ADVANCED. Another reason why w should be granted an Increase Is that tho neces saries of life havo advanced in price which places the dollar at a less pur chasing value. Is It not the working people who support tho various buslnos men In our section nnd would It not mean In creased business. If the people learn ed more, tho idea of labor leaders lin ing shot down would lie nbsurd, for havo we not laws that will protect those people while they are peaceable, law-abiding citizens, nnd we will In sist on our rights as worklngmen be ing respected. If left to the mercv of such piwrs ns the Sunday Press wo would bo serving time and be wearing a striped suit. In regard to the probability of a strike the Free Press said that It was a crime to strike. Take this rlgln from tho worklngman nnd he becomes a pauper and a serf and that God given right which Is the protection of tho people will bo used whenever the men themselves consider It necessary, 25 Reduction on D HAND i PAINE "On the Square." 203 Washington Avenue. m a yyi'r'y'''','''i" " Irrespective of what all tho news papers of tho country may print.

BRUTAL HIGHWAYMEN. Securing Nothing of Value on Their Victim, They Cut nnd Maimed Him with Knives. Angry because they failed to secure any booty, highwaymen who on Mon day night held up John Pasko, of Win- ton, cut him with knives In a most brutal manner. Tho assault was committed In a spirit of pure devlllshness. Pasko is a laborer and Monday was in Mnyfleld. He was walking to his home In Wlnton after dark, when ho was stopped by four men. They forced him to the ground and hurriedly went thtough his pockets. Finding nothing, the men became very angry and, draw ing their knives, cut and maimed him in a frightful manner. He was received at tho Lackawanna hospital yesterday, where his wounds were dressed. Ho will recover, but may be crippled for life. m CHANGE IN TRAINING SCHOOL.

In explaining the change In the training and hlgii school curriculum and the necessity for t!v employment of an assistant for Miss Umstead In tho training school depailment, Super intendent of Schools Howell H.ild yes terday that such a r.nurss had been contemplated os early as last I.Tay, and was practically a necessity. Ho explained that there are two branches of work In tho training school the theoretical and tho practi cal. Tho present plan Is to havo all the senior or last year students at the high school, who are desirous of en tering the training clasr. the next year, drop two of their optional studies for the last six months and take up tho theoretical branches In the training school The theoretical studies are psyeol ogy and hlstorv of teaching, the latter Including school management, etc. By this means the student can finish tho theoretical work durlnir tho last six months of the high school course, and then, by taking one year's practical work, graduate from tho training school. It has taken two years to go through tho training school heretofore, and these after tho student bad gradu ated from tho high school, whereas by the new plan only one yar's wotk after graduation from the high reboot will be required. This extra addition to the number of pupils In the training school will of course, necessitate the sen Ices of an extra teacher, tho superintendent says. Thirty-four of the present senior class at the high school signified their Intention of becoming teachers, and for this reason the school authorities are desirous of having tho new plan adopted ot once, CONTROLLER REFUSED TO SIGN. Formal Request Made Upon Him by the Board of Control.

The annunl meeting of the Scranton Builders' Exchange, held last evening In tho assembly room of the board of trade, was largely attended and a gen eral discussion of tho building outlook for the coming year wns participated In by a number of tho members, after tho election of oillcers took place. The general consensus of opinion of tho dozen members who spoke wns that If there was no strike agitated during the coming year there would be n fair year's business only, but If a strike was declared by tho Journeymen there would bo very little In the build ing line done. Numerous rensons were given for the rather dubious outlook taken by tho members. It wns stated that the largo number of empty olllces In the large office buildings and the largo number of empty dwellings In various parts of the city were proof that extensive building operations could not be hoped for, the only largo buildings to be erected being tho Young Men's Chris tian association nnd tho large printing ofllce of tho International Correspond ence school.
