DISCOVEBEB OF COAL. Project to Erect Monument for Him Again Bevived. The proposition to build a monument to tho memory of Philip Ouenthcr, tho discoverer of anthracite coal, has again been taken up, with the probability that It will soon bo accomplished. It Is the deslro of those Interested that tho monument shall be "coal stone," which has contributed much to the ma terial and commercial wealth of the state, and especially to this section of It. Guenther, who first brought coal Into successful use, lived in a rough cabin in the forest on the Mauch Chunk mountnln. Carbon county. While In quest for game for his fam ily, whom ho had left at home without food of any kind, his foot stumbled against a black stone. Hy tho road slcio not far from the town of Summit Hill ho built a little flro of wood and threw pieces cf tho supposed stone about It. so that the embers might last longer, while roasting fowl.

It now remains for the referee to nppolnt one. There was n trustee elected on Jan. 17 last, but he was killed two days later In a powder ex plosion. ELECTION OF OFFICEBS.

Some Knotty Questions on tho Law, or Bather on How to Legally, or at All Events, Successfully, Evade the Law Propounded to John Gib bons and Answered Satisfactorily to the Questioner "To Work a Great Bight, Do a Little Wrong," Is His Motto. If Governor Stone hasn't already made up his mind as to whom ho will appoint to the vacant Judgeship he Is respectfully asked to consider the name of John Gibbons, school controller from the Twentieth ward, and a whole lot of other things. Mr. Gibbons may not know a great deal about Blackstone and may not be able to appropriately apply lntrlcato law to complicated facts, but ho cer tainly has a happy faculty of bending stubborn facts to lit unconvenient law. East night at the meeting of tho building committee of tho board of control as ho was engaged In some calculations on the amount of water that might be added to formaldehyde gas without diluting It to the point of Inefficiency as a disinfectant, ho was interrupted by Mr. Evans, chair man of the committee, with a problem that all tho other members of tho committee had given up as being be yond them. It was this. The Baptists of Bellovuo Hill have been worshipping In a hall which stands on a plot that recently came Into the possession of a land company and tho Improvements which tho land company have In mind neces sitates the tearing down of the hall. WANT A SUNDAY SCHOOL. The adult members of the congrega tion propose to attend one or tho other of the Hyde Park churches until such time as they can build a church of their own, but they do not care to send their children such a distance and that their Sunday school may not be broken up they ask the board to allow them to use the lower roums of No. 13 school building on Sunday af ternoons until about May 1, when their own building, they expect, will bo com pleted. "Well, what's the difficulty about that?" blandly Inquired tho sage of Carr's Patch. "Why, wo find In the book," said Mr. Evans, "that tho law says positively no school building shall be used for any other than school purposes." "A Sunday school Is a school, Isn't It?" declared, rather than queried, Mr. Gibbons. "Yes, I know, but" "Well, now. Isn't thnt enough for you," broke In Mr. Gibbons, "to know- that those people ought to have what they ask and that I'm telling you It's all light. A school Is a school. Now let it go at that." Mr. Evans Is pleased to report to his constituents that the committee will unanimously recommend that the rei quest of the Bellovuo Hill Baptists be granted. ANOTHER HARD PROBLEM. "Now, I have something else along the same line," timidly ventured Mr Evans. "The United Mine Workers of that neighborhood are also without a Placo to meet, since the hall was torn down, and they want permission to meet In the school house once or twice a month. I'd like to recommend that their request bo granted, as It Is only to be temporary, but of course the law 1 suppose there Is no getting nround the law In this case." This last was addressed to Mr. Gibbons. "Ale you sure thre Is such a law?" Mr. Gibbons asked of Mr. Evans. "For my own part. I really don't know. I never saw sucha law, but I understand" "That's enough. That's enough," Mr. Gibbons Interrupted. "We'll refer this matter to the controller of the ward with power to act." A recommendation to that effect was adopted. Mr. Evans smiled an approv ing smile. COULDN'T GET LIQUID AIB. Prof. Wells' Lecture Consequently Was Postponed Indefinitely. Tho lecture on "Liquid Air," which was to have been given at the High school last night by Prof. A. II. Wells, had to be postponed Indefinitely, ow ing to tho failure to secure a supply of tho subject matter. A supply was ordered from tho Trlp pler laboratory. In New York, and it was prepared and ready for shipment, but the express companies, one and all, refuse to carry It, and consequent ly It could not be gotten here. The scientists claim tho stuff can be safely transported without any dan ger being Incurred and hope to be able to convince tho express companies of this. Till they succeed Scranton will have to be content to learn nbout liquid air from tho newspapers and periodicals.

WASHINGTON'S SIGNATURE It Is Appended to a Document Now the Property of Attorney M. J. Martin. Attorney M. J. Martin has In his olllcij in tho Coal Exchange a paper that ho prizes very highly. It contains In bold characters the name of George Washington and was signed by tho man a giatcful posterity loves to call "thu father of his country." The document Is tho discharge paper of Abraham Dusen, who served for seven years and six months In the Con tinental army. Upon his dischargo.from tho army ho lecelvcd a piece of land from tho government as a partial re ward for his services. This land was subsequently sold by him to Henry Tremper and with tho deed went tho discharge papers on which It was found ed. Henry Tremper transmitted tho papers to his son, Judge Jacob Trem per, who in turn gave them to hit daughter, Mrs. Mary Augusta Gardner, widow of tho lato Dr. A. P. Gardner, of Glenhome, near Elmhurst. Mrs. Gardner gave them to Attorney Martin. The discharge paper reads as follows: By his excellency, George Washington, esq., general and commandcr-ln-chlef of the forces of tho United States of Ameri ca. Theso are to certify that the bearer hereof. Abraham Dusen, corporal of tho First New York regiment, having faith fully served tho rnltcd States seven yenrs and Fix month"? and being enlisted for tho war only, Is hereby discharged from the American nrmv.

The above corporal, Abraham Dusen, has been honored with the badge of mer it for seven and a half years' faithful service. Coul. "N. Pyth, Lt. Col. On tho back of the diseha'rgo paper Is tho following, which shovs that General Washington did not propose to bo without nn army in the- event ot another appeal to arms being neces sary: llcadnuartcrs, Juno K, 17S1. This cortlllcate shall not nvall tho bs.ir er us a discharge until tho ratification of tho deilnltlo treaty of peace, previous to which tlmo and until proclamation thereof be made ho Is to bo considered as being on furlough. General Washington signed tho pa pers In a line, bold hand that Is still, after tho lapse of more than a cen tury, perfectly legible. Ho began his namo with a fine generous G and near the top of the letter placed a very small o, which constituted the abbrevi ation of George. Tho capital W of Washington is written very close to tho G. Tho document Is one of tho most In teresting in a historical way that ex ists hereabouts and Attorney Martin naturally prizes It very highly. BEFUSES TO FILL CONTBACT. Else in the Price of Paper Makes It Impossible. At last night's meeting of tho supply committee of tho board of control, Chairman D. J. Roche announced that the firm which bad been nwarded the contract for furnishing pencil pads re fuses to fill any more orders, unless allowed a fifty per cent, advance on tho contract price, tho rise In tho prleo of paper having made It impossible to live up to the contract without entail ing nn unreasonable loss. The committee finding itself without any means of enforcing the fulfillment of tho contract, no bond having been exacted from tho contractor, decided to recommend to tho board that now bids bo asked for at once, as thero is Im mediate need for pads.

LIKE THE WAIL OF A FALLEN ANGEL WHAT DB. SMITH THINKS OF WOMAN'S BIGHTS. Spoke in the Green Bldge Baptist Church Last Night on the Un crowned Queens of America Re ferred to tho Wonderful Power of a Woman's Influence and Effect It Has Had in All Ages There Never Was a Oreat Man Who Had Not a Great Mother. "To my mind, woman's rights Is the last, dismal, despairing wall of a fallen angel," was one of tho strong asser tions made by Albert tt. Smith, M. D., last night In his lecture In the Green Rldgo Baptist church. His subject was "America's Uncrowned Queens." Ho has no sympathy with the faddish wo man of today. Ho began by remarking that tho four nations which nro In tlmo to rule the world aro Germany, Rutsla, England nnd the United States, and of these four nations tho United States will bs tho supeilor. "But," said he, "tho future of these four nations and of nil the world, lies In the wonderful influ ence wrought by the power of true womanhood. "The greatest power in all this world Is tho power of a woman's love, but no power Is useful until harnessed. Human nature Is bl-sexual, a man and wife in a ttuo union 'are but equal parts of one complete whole. Woman has proved herself to bo master of many arts and sciences, but she Is also responsible for tho introduction Into the world of tho three greatest hum bugs of modern times, Christian Sci ence, Spiritualism and Tneosophy." WOMAN'S POWER. He then said that to find out what woman's power i3 lt was necessary to see what the poets and the geniuses have to say regarding lt, as mediocrity Is always blinded by the non-essentials. He told of the concluding years of tho Civil war, when every able bodied man In the South was away at the front and when none but the "women foil. 3" wore nt home. "In ull those dreadful days," said he, "woman hood rose to Its throne and there Is not a single record of a negro's approach ing a woman in an unworthy man ner." He referred to Cardinal Gibbons' widely quoted sermon of last Sunday In which ho stated that women were neglecting their home life too much and dabbling In that in which they had no business, and stated all the car dinal charged was true. In speaking of the wonderful power of a true wife's love Mr. Smith spoke of Rev. Russell Conwell, the celebrated clergyman, of Philadelphia, and told how It Is tho spiritual affinity of love between himself and his wife, who died some twenty-seven years ago, that has made him the remarkable man he Is and tho pastor of tho largest Protes tant church In tho world. Ho stuted that he has drawn more true Inspiration from reading the pri vate letters of Robert E. Lee, "the soldier without malice," to his wife, than he has from any other work ex cept the Bible. "The power wrought by 'this woman over her husband and his unfaltering faith in her are won derful," said he. A TRIBUTE TO MOTHERS. "There never was a great man who had not a great mother is a truth proved over and over again," said Mr. Smith. Ho quoted Lafayette's famous remark, -when, upon being introduced to Mary Washington, the mother of George Washington, the French noble man had said: "If America has such mothers as this, no wonder her sons are Illustrious." Abraham Lincoln said upon his dcath-bod, almost as bo was passing away: "All I was I owe to my angel mother." He stated that woman today has more privileges under tho law than mnn and then set out to prove lt. He told how a woman can leave her home, go into business and the husband has to support tho children. Under all cir cumstances a man must support his wife. "Women talk of women's rights," said he, "why, to my mind woman's lights Is the last, dismal, despairing wall of a fallen angel. "In these days the most wonderful problem Is the homo life of our land. By a brief recollection of history we may easily see that when the women of any land sank lower than their proper sphero that nation has decayed. If tho home life goes down, the nation falls. Tho home life of this country lies In the hands of the women of the country, and I venture tho assertion that it Is safe cradled, as It Is, In the laps of the unknown and obscure wo- titti --- What Oreater Pleasure Among the smaller things than puttinjr on New Neck wear ?
