First of a Series Under the Aus pices of the Catholic Young Wo mon's Club Ho Said That Ireland Had a Musical History Before Any of tho Great Nations of Europe and Claimed That Early Scotch and Welsh Musicians Owed Their In spiration to tho Irish. ltev. Thomas P. McLoughlln, of New York city, lectured before and delight fully entertained a large audience last night In St. Thomas College hall, his top c being "The Music of Ireland." The lecture was the ilrst of a series to be given on Tuesday nights for the benefit of the newly organized Catho lic Young Women's club. Prior to tho regular lecture a short musical piogramme was given, the songs being nil tuneful Irish melodies. Miss Alice Burke rendered "An Irish Love Song," nnd "Tho Old Plaid Shawl" In her beautiful contralto voice and Mr3. Joseph O'Brien sang "Kathleen Mavoumeen" und "Tho Dear Little Shamrock" with her accus tomed finish. Miss Isabel Clarke, who has a resonant contralto voice, sang during the lecture "Bendeemer's Stream" and "An Irish Folk Song." Father McLoughlln was Introduced by Itt. Itev. Bl3hop M. J. Hoban, who studied with tho lecturer In Rome for a number of years. Father iMcLough lln has a most pleasing personality and grace of speech and is not only a lecturer on music but a musician as well. He Is possessed of a magnificent baritone voice, of wonderful depth and power, and during the evening sang several of Tom Moore's Irish melodies, Including "Tho Harp That Once Through Tarn's Halls," "The Minstrel Boy" and "The Meeting of the Wat eis." ITS EARLY HISTORY. In beginning his lecture he told of the wonderfully high standard music had reached in Ireland prior to tho twelfth century, when the musical his tory of the other great nations of Eu rope really begins. The Druldlcal re ligion, practiced by the early Celts, was responsible in n large degree for this remarkable musical development, ull of the Druids having been bards, who were the earliest exponents of poetry and music. The gicatest period of musli'al do blopment In Ireland, he said, was be tween the sixth and ninth centuries, though not much Is known of th.: exact hlstoty of those times. "During tho twelfth century,", said he, "when all Ireland had been rack ed b- lire and by tho sword, such won drous melodies as "The Last Rose of Summer" anil others were produced. What, then, must have been Ireland's musical condition from the sixth to the ninth centuries, when she was at peace?" He contended that all of the early Welsh und Scotch musicians owetl their inspiration to Ireland and thought many melodies now claimed by both of these countries In reality arc old Irish airs. In support of this he quoted "from the enemy," as he expressed It, from Welsh and Scutch historians. In Powell's History of Camlnia, a recognized modern author ity in early Welsh history, the state ment Is made that In tho early ages It was musicians from Ireland who devised the instrumental music play ed In Wales. In conclusion ho said: SIMPLE AND TUNEFUL. "The Irish melodies are simple anJ tuneful, they appeal to every heart and It does not require a musical edu cation to appreciate them. I am con fident that the time is coming when the English, having studied tho Irish character of the present and the Irish music and tho Irish poets of ancient times, w 111 realize that there is in tho lilsh people an Innate nobility that de servers recognition. "Tho time must come when Ireland will again Haunt her beauteous banner of green with its harp of gold and take her place among the nations of the world as the land of music and the homo of song," RYAN WAS DISCHARGED. Alderman Kasson Found Him Not Guilty of Larceny of White's Coat. James Ryan, of Forest court, wa3 arraigned before Alderman Myron Kasson last night on tho charge of larceny of a coat, preferred by A, J. White, o 1221 Prospect avenue. Ha was dlschatged, us It developed that theru was a misunderstanding In the case. Tho two men ure employed at Cuslek's livery and ono day In March White, while at work, was kicked by a horse and rendered unconscious. When he came to himself a brand new coat belonging to him had disap peared. Ho was unable to find It, un til yesterday, when he saw Ryan wearing it. He had the latter arrested but at the heating Ryan proved that while the coat was In his possession It had como there through a direct inlsundci standing, and that he was In no way tc blame. ANNUAL PEW LETTING. Seats for Year Assigned to Congre gation of Elm Park Church.

Executive Committee Was Appointed and Addresses Made. Tho recently organized Union league of Lackawanna county met last night In the Central Republican club's head quarters In the Price building and held Its regular weekly meeting. An exe cutive committee was appointed and candidate for the legislature John Schcuer and T. J, Reynolds addressed the club, Tho executive commlttco was chosen by tho committee on nominations, ap pointed at tho previous meeting, and was elected by the vote of the members of tho club. It la composed of Thomas R. Brooks, of tho central city, Hon. John J. Scheuer. candidate for legisla ture in tho Second district; B. T. Jayne, of North Scranton; John R. Ed wards of West Scranton, census enu merator of this district, and Harry W. Seamans, of Benton. A committee was also appointed to make arrangements for tho securing of permanent headquarters for the club. It consists of George M. Marshall, Jr., Will Johns and L. B. Carter. Both Mr. Scheuer and Mr. Reynolds In addressing the club spoke of the work done by organizations of this nature all over the state,, the strength they add to the party and the general benefits derived from them. A large number of new members wero enrolled In the club and the meeting then ad journed to meet again Tuesday, May 15. CONTROLLER'S PRICE LIST Those Who Sell to tho City Must Make Their Figures Conform to Regulation Prices. Controller Howell yesterday an nounced that he has now on file In his ofllce a fairly complete list of the market prices of all supplies bought by the city and that in future he will make an effort to have all bills turned In conform to this list before any war rants for their payment are counter signed. The controller said that he believes that in the past tho city has been pay ing exhorbltant prices for various sup plies and said that there were numer ous instance since ho has come Into ofllce when, even without a price list, It could be seen that tho prices charged wero way beyond what they should have been. Ho would mention no names, but he said that in nearly every case the merchant or person selling the goods had lopped off large amounts from the bills at his request, thus confessing that over-charges had been made. In proof of this a Tribune reporter was shown several bills which have been .paid and from which large amounts have been taken off. Ono bill In particular was reduced over $30. The members of the auditing com mittee of councils do not carefully examine all bills that pass before them. This would be manifestly Im possible, as they meet only once every two weeks and on some occasions as many as four hundred bills have to be passed upon. Assistant City Clerk Morris reads the bills ono by one and If there Is no objecting voice they are passed. In some Instances where there are loner bills he is requested to read only the total amount and the bill Is passed without any of the members knowing what price is charged for each Individual Item. If the controller finds that too much Is charged for anything, he returns the bill to the auditing committee and If that body passes it again all that he can do is to compel the creditor to come before him and swear to each item. This he has heretofore required In many Instances. All bills are, of course, slgnetl bj" tho various heads of departments, but they approve of the Items inasmuch as they are generally the persons who order the supplies and they could do nothlntr less than ap prove of the prices which they them selves bought goods at. The controller saj's that he 'believes he can save the city a large amount each year and also the school district, fop he will In tho future compare all bills against the school district with his list, as well. It has taken him sev eral months to compile tho price list and he will make an effort to keen It thoroughly up-to-date. FUNERAL OF MRS. KINGSBURY. Services were Conducted by Rev. Dr. James McLeod. The funeral of Mrs. F. II. Kingsbury took place yesterday aftirncon from her late residence on Mulberry ttreet, and was very largely attended. It was almost without exception tht sad dest occasion of tho kind those pres ent had experienced. 'Hie baut1ful young wife, whose friends wept above her quiet form, lay amid flowers which for profusion and sweetness It seemed the conservatories of this re gion must have been rilled of their treasures, as had the desolate home of Its ch'ef Joy. The services, conducted by Rev. Dr, James McLeod, were btief but most touching In character. John T. Wat kins sang two hymns, favorites of the dead. Thoy were, "When He Com eth to Make Up His Jewels," one that sho had loved since childhood, and ;Some Sweet Day." Miss Florence Richmond accompanied with the piano. The interment, which was private, was made In Forest Hill, where tho dearly loved one was laid near the lit tle, child which had wept and smiled but a brief day on earth. Funeral Di rector Price had charge of tho arrange ments. The pall-bearers wero W. II. Jcssttp, Jr., H. W. Kingsbury, Mon trose Bamurel, Dr. H. V. Logan, Wil liam Mulford, of Montrose, and Rob ert .fessun. NO PHYSICIAN ATTENDED. Coroner Is Investigating the Death of Roland Frantz, of Green Ridge. During the early hours of yesterday morning Coroner Roberts was sum moned from bed by Undertaker Jones to giunt a permit for tho burial of Roland Frantz, of Wyom ng avenue, Green Ridge, whose remains wero be ing prepared to be taken out of town for Interment, The coroner found that tho deceased had been ill for two weeks, but as no physician had been called, a formal certltlcate of death was wanting. A pr3t mortem examination was made, with the result that death was found to have been primarily due to a liver d sorder. The coroner gave a burial permit, but concluded to have a jury pass upon tho case and In the courso of a few days will cenduct an In quest. The deceased, It Is said, was a fol lower of the Christian Science faith, and on this account no physician was called, It Is alleged. NO MORE WARRANTS FOR THE PRESENT CRUSADERS GIVE THEIR REA SON FOR THIS ACTION. They Do Not Want Cases to Go Over from Term to Term nnd They Think They Will Have as Many Cases at the Coming Term as Can Well Be Disposed of Saloon Men Are to Have a Meeting Friday Night to Decide Upon tho Course of Action They Will Pursue. No now warrants wero issued at the instance of tho crusaders, yesterday, and the probabilities are that none will be Issued for the present. Tho attorneys for the Men's union deem it inadvisable to allow cases to go over from one term to another, and as there Is little possibility of the list for tho next term being able to ac commodate any moro than tho half hundred cases now underway they con cluded to wait till Just before the time for the convening of the next grand Jury before bringing any moro cases. "You can assure the people that tho crusado has not ceased or even halted," said Mr. Beers, yesterday, to a Trib une man. "Wo propose to carry out our original purpose of cleaning up this city If It takes a lifetime." Tho agents of tho crusaders were busy yesterday In attendance upon the grand Jury. Only one of their cases were heard, but It is expected that a batch of them will come up today. This single caBe was that against the Ralne brothers of the First ward, who are charged with selling without a license on Sunday to a minor. The case of Peter Walsh, returned by Con stable Barron, of Dickson City, was also heard. The jury will make Its first' return this morning. Benjamin Arnovltz, of Scranton street, charged with selling without a license, gave ball before Alderman Howe, yesterday morning, in the cum of $300. . Warrants are yet out for Jamps C. Taylor, of Ninth street; James A. Heme, of 601 Eynon street; Mary Goff, of 401 Cedar avenue; J, J. Mangan, of 401 Stone avenue; Richard Zuleder, of 929 Plttston avenue; James J. Kelly, North Washington avenue; J. J. Skelly, Penn avenue; P. J. Glbney, North Main avenue, and Louis Bonicamp agnl, of Lackawanna avenue. The central city hotel keepers are to meet Friday night. It Is under stood they propose to enter Into an ngreement to keep closed on Sunday and ask that the unlicensed dealers shall be compelled to obey the law. LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. Under this heading short letters of interest will be published when accompanied, for publica tion, by the writer's name. The Tribune tloes not assume responsibility for opinions here expressed. Rev. A. Lychowicz Replies. Editor of The Tribune. Sir: I find In yesterday's Tribune a sort of answer to my few remarks in the Times of last Friday concerning a certain Polish Independent society called lr'rce Library and signed by several of Its members. It tries to whitewash its mem bers by simple denials, some of which arc really unfortunate. The worst of it is when they pay: "It Is a slanderous falsehood that we have done anj thing wrong to the late Bishop O'llara, as he was on his deathbed by playing the tragic com edj' 'Criminals.' Our performance took place four months before his death." The fact, how ever, is that tho "Criminals" was plajed by them In Music Hall on the 30th of Januarj', l&W, while Bishop O'Hara died four days and not four months later, namely on the 3d of Kebruarj-, Nor is the 6cenc enacted in that theater eluring the appearance of the actor who played tho blihop forgotten. Farther, their statement that "it Is false and untrue that our society has the purpose to fight with any church or churches" may le correct with regard to their pi luted constitu tion, but it falls to tlie ground by their simple admission that they plaj-cd "Criminals," which is a vicious libel on priests. It will appear from the above that the answer of this Independ cnt Polish society is remarkable for its disregard of the facts. Yours respectfully, Rev, A. Lychowicz. Scranton, May 8.
