CHILDREN'S DAT EXERCISES.
Enjoy nblo Programme at Elm Fark
Church Yorterday.
Tho annual Children's day cxcrcljici
of the Sunday school of the Elm Park
Methodist Eplncopal church wcro con
ducted In thnt beautiful auditorium
yesterday momlnK, In lieu of the reKU
lar service, and were witnessed by a
congregation which completely llllcd
both the main lloor nnd tho spacious
galleries. .
The organ loft and tljo pulpit were
beautifully decorated With American
Beauty roses and n profusion of folluge
and dainty wild flower.i. These wero
laid on with a lavish hand, presenting
a simple yet beautiful effect. The 1,400
pupils of the Sunday school were ac
corded the place of honor In tho front
pews, when Superintendent W. A. May,
who ncted as chairman, announced
that the opening hymn would bo "On
ward, Christian Soldiers."
This was sung by the Immense con
gregation In rtn Inspiring manner, after
which prayer was offered by C. E.
Uradbury. Forty-three Infants were
then baptized by the pastor,' Kev. Dr.
C. M. aiftln.
Tho primary class next sang a de
lightful chorus, their clear, childish
voices joining In perfect unison. Janet
Connell then gave a brief and prettily
worded address of welcome, after
which the regular children's pro
gramme was gone through with.
There were recitations by Margaret

and Arthur Anderson. Dr. C. M. Gimn
delivered a brief and appropriate ad

COATS AND HIS FORTUNE.
Not Likely to Receive the Honey
Loft to Him for Many a
Day Yet.
Jay Coats, the aged Inmate at the
Hillside Home, who four months ago
foil heir to a legacy bequeathed him
by Mrs. Rice, his sister, of Albany, N.
Y Is still at tho home, and from pres
ent Indications his chances of ever see
ing the fortune are not very bright,
when It Is considered that he is a man
"3 years of age and that the legacy
Is being sought by a large number of
her relatives, who are fighting every
clause of the will.
Superintendent George W. Beomer,
of the Hillside Home, has taken charge
of Coats' side of the case, and In his
Interest has been to Albany regaidlng
the matter. Mrs. Rice's will Is certain
ly a very strange one. The greater
part of her fortune has been set aside
for the erecting of a monument over
her grave and that of her husband.
Eleven thousand dollars Is the sum
specified for that purpose, and an al
lowance of a certain sum of monsv Is
left her brother, to be paid regularly
until his death, when It Is to be de
voted to beautifying the plot of ground
wheie the monument Is built.
A sum of money Is left a niece, with
the same proviso. Mrs. Rice was SO
jeais old when she died and for some
time past had been acting In a strange
manner, and It Is thought that at the
time she made the will she was not
mentally sound.
Coats Is perfectly satisfied where he
Is and seems entirely indifferent as
to whether he ever secures the legacy
or not. He Is a man who throughout
his entire life has suffered from ill
fortune and ho Is now content to re
main just as he Is during his few re
maining years. When In his prime he
was a magnificently built man, being
a giant in stature and weight. He
worked at a steel mill and bv over
taxing his great strength received In
juries which have crippled him. He
has children In the far west whom he
has not seen In a very large number
of years and his wife died a long time
ago.

bXCITING RACES
AT THE SPEEDWAY
WITNES8ED BY TWENTY-FIVE
HUNDRED PERSONS.
Silver Chimes, Owned by J. L. Craw
ford, Roduced tho Track Record
from 1.07 to 1.04 1-4 Exciting
Event Botwoen Hugh Keenan's
Violot and Leo Coyne's Gcno Levi
Patterson's Horses Won the Toam
Contest, in Which a Number of
Pine Horsos Were Entored.
i
N
Fully twenty-five hundred persons
wero present at the Boulevard Speedway-
Saturday afternoon and enjoyed
what was probably tho best exhibition
of horse racing ever seen In this city.
The crowd that witnessed tho lithe,
graceful looking steeds speed along the
excellent track was composed princi
pally of professional and business men,
accompanied by lady companions, and
made up an aggregation of spectators
who watched every move with tho
most Intense Interest and greatest en
thusiasm. Seated on the portico of the Speed
wny Club house was Bauer's full band,
which enlivened the occasion by ren
dering an excellent programme.
The races began promptly nt 3
o'clock. Judge James Kelly, Time
keepers John Simpson of Carbondale,
and J. M. Wood, of Duryea, and Scorer
C. S. Motlska took their places at the
wire and announced the first race, the
2.30 class, in which wero entered John
Slattery's Little Roy, Smith Gorman's
Walter J. and Leo Coyne's Gene. The
race was an exciting one, but Llllle
Roy won both heats, Walter J. and
Gene coming In second and third.
One record was smashed during tho
day, Silver Chimes, J. L. Crawford's
handsome racer, doing half a mile In
1.04U, and by so doing earned a two
minute harness offered by Del Slmrell
nnd broke the track record of 1.07.
THE SECOND RACE.
In the second race, the 2.24 class, Da
vid Copperfleld, Major S. and Good
Treasure were entered. John Ladwlg
driving his own horse, David Copper
field made better time than any of his
opponents nnd won out, making the
first heat In 1.10U and the second In 1.10.
Mnjor S, driven by his owner. Smith
Gorman, came In second, nnd Edmund
Robinson brought his animal, Good
Treasure, In last.
The third event was one of tho snap
piest of the day. Hugh Keenan's horse,
Violet nnd Leo Coyne's Gene wero
matched against each other. The first
heat was won by Keenan's horse by at
least six lengths. Violet's stock went
UD.
The crowd was thoroughly on Us
mettle and In the second heat the two
horses shot away at the word go like
projectiles from a cannon. The spec
tators were cheering and yelling their
loudest and the two nnimals. Hying
like two demons, were neck and neck
on the home stretch. At the sixteenth
pole Violet broke and, running under
the wire, Gene was given the decision
for the heat. Pandemonium here broke
loose and Gene's stock went up 80 per
cent. Several bets were made sub rosa
nnd when the starter gave the word
and the two horses started down the
track on the third heat the crowd was
strung to the highest pitch. "Go It
Gene!" "Whoop 'er up, Coyne!" etc.,
were roared by the excited men around
the trnck and down the track went tho
two animals neck and neck until the
quarter post was reached when Keen
an's horse1 shot ahead several lengths,
and "Violets wins!" was the shout that
broke from hundreds of throats. Vio
let maintained a big lead now and
looked like a sure winner until the
sixteenth pole was reached, when she
again broke and Gene went under the
wire first and won the race.
PATTERSON WON.
The team race was one of the most
exciting oi the day, the contestants
being Levi Patterson's team, Nellie B
and Jim Doyle; Colonel Hallstead's
pair, Jim and Hattle, and Smith Gor
man's team, Major S and Walter J.
Frank Hannas drove Hallstead's pair
and the otner owners drove their own.
In the first heat Hallstead's pair
maintained the lead, but near the fin
ish Patterson rushed ahead and won
out. In the second heat Patterson won
out, maintaining the lead throughout,
but only beat Gorman out by a nose.
A pair of coolers presented by G. W.
Fritz went to the winner, Patterson,
the time of both Heats being 1.15.
The last race was a great event,
probably the llnest exhibition of horse
racing ever seen In Scranton. The en
tries were: Cadmus, owned .by J. L.
Crawford; Jennie C, owned by A. J,
Schnell; Guy Cole, owned by Pete
Cummings; Belle Freeman, owned by
Edward Robinson, and W. O. Bradley,
owned by M. T. Keller. With the ex
ception of Belle Freeman and Cadmus,
the owners drove their own horses,
Dave James being up behind the for
mer and Frank Hannas reined the lat
ter Owing to the crowd thronging on the
field It took considerable time to start
the race. Fiom the very start the
horses were bunched, the first heat
being won out by Jennie C In l.OGVi.
with Guy Cole and Belle Freeman close
behind, however.
The second heat wns just as hotlv
contested and wns finally won out by
Jennie C, although Cadmus did fine

FLOWER SERVICES.
"The Flowers' Ministry" Spokon of
by Rov. R. F. Y, Plorco. .
Very pretty and pleasing wero tho
services nt tho Penn Avenue Baptist
church last night, where Rev. U. F.
Y. Plorco conducted a llower evening,
choosing as tho thomo for his sermon,
'Tho Flowers' Ministry."
Throughout the entire edifice flower
were in abundance, roses, with laurel
nnd all ftotts of frngrans blossomi per
fuming the atmosphere and producing
n beautiful effect, all ot the (lowers
being sent at the conclusion of the
pervlcos to the sick at hospitals, ami
In various private homes. On entering
the building everyone Vens accosted at
the door by two young ladles, who of
fered ft handsome rose.
The services were of the usunl Sun
day night order, with the exception ot
tne pastor's sermon. Rev. Pierce
"poke of the beauty everywhere cbout
us, of the seemingly useless things,
which, nevertheless, merely through
tnelr nntlve beauty do good In the
world. "Beauty," said he, "Is the vis
ible sn'llu of God. Ho Himself Is In
visible, but anywhere nround us we
can net) his smile in the beauties of
nature. It might be usked,
'Why did God mnke the flowers?' They
ore of no apparent usefulness! They
nve on the borderland between ma
terial and Immaterial life, nnd tench
a great lesson that as God has the
time to see the beautiful and send It
to us, wo must seek it and love It."
DEATH OF MAJOR SEYMOUR
He was Killed on Thursday at tho
Zand River Near Blomfontoin
by a Boer Bullet.
Telegraphic dispatches announce that
Louis L. Seymour, formerly a resident
of this city but for a number of years
past a mining engineer of great promi
nence In South Africa, was killed' nt
the Zand river, near Bloemfonteln, on
Thursday last, In a skirmish between
the British and the Boers.
Mr. Seymour was born In Whitney's
Point, N. Y., In 18C0, and after study
ing civil and mechanical engineering
secured a position with the Dickson
Manufacturing company, which con
cern In 18S2 sent him to superintend
the setting up of some mining machin
ery In Venezuela. He remained In
South America for three years, and In
1SS8 went to Klmberly, South Africa,
for the De Beers Mining company as
manager and general superintendent.
He next went to London as consult
ing engineer for the De Beers people,
and after remaining there for three
years, teturned to South Africa and
became the general superintendent o
the Rand company's gold mines, prob
ably the most Important mining posi
tion in tho world. When the Brltlsh
Boer war broke out, Mr. Seymour
threw his lot with England and In
company with George Poore, son of
Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Poore, of Green
Ridge, organized a regiment of en
gineers, known as the Railway Pioneer
regiment.
He secured a commission as major In
the English army, no foreigner being
allowed to become a colonel, and was
placed In command of his regiment.
He had designed and constructed all
the bridges used by Lord Roberts'
army on Its march towards the Trans
vaal. For tho past several months he
had been with Lord Kitchener.
Captain Fremont Stokes, of Com
pany F, Thirteenth regiment, who
worked with Major Seymour In South
Africa for some time, says that he be
lieves Lord Roberts' army could not
have advanced so rapidly on Pretoria
as It has were it not for the superior
topographical maps which he knows
have been prepared by Messrs. Sey
mour and Poore.
The dead man was formerly a mem
ber of Company A, Thirteenth regi
ment, nnd had many warm friends In
this city. He visited Scranton about
eighteen months ago, spending several
weeks here. He Is survived by a
widow, who is at present In Capo
Town, and by two brothers and two
sisters, one of whom Is now on her
way to this country. The latter Is Miss
Stella Seymour, who was for a num
ber of years the organist at the First
Presbyterian church.
HOLY NAME SOCIETY.
Sixty New Members Received at
Cathederal Last Night.
Sixty candidates wero received Into
the Holy Name society of St. Peter's
cathedral last night by lit. Uev.
Bishop Hoban, and thirty postulants
were professed. The bishop was as
sisted by Rev. D. J. MauGoldrlck and
rtev. John J. Loughran. He also de
livered a brief sermon on the three
essential points or objects of tho so
ciety. The first of the.o is the prevention
of tho profane usj ot the Lord's name
nnd tho using of all efforts possible
lo prevent It being dragged Into ordi
nary conversation. The becond object
Is the pieventlon of perjury, of which,
the bishop stated, there have beon
such marvelous examples In our local
courts recently.
The third object Is to make n war
upon Immortality. In this connection
the bishop r.poke very pointedly, and
urged the members to use all the In
dividual and combined effort possi
ble to put an end to the lelgn, as he
termed It, of tho bawdy houses In this
iilty and the contiequi-nt debauchery
of tho young.

CAR PLUNGES OVER
HIGH EMBANKMENT
EIGHTEEN PASSENGERS HAVE
EXCITING EXPERIENCE.
Ralls Spread on a Curve at the Foot
of a Hill and Causes a Throop Car
to Jump Track and Sash Over a
Fiftoon Foot Culvort-Only Five
Wore Injurod and None of Them
Had Sorious Hurts Was a Mar
velous Escape.
An open car bound for Throop yes
terday afternoon with eighteen pas
sengers aboard Jumped the track and
plunged over a flfteonifoot culvert Into
a hay field at the foot ot the hill Just
to the north of Dunmore cemetery, In
juring a woman, three men and a boy,
though not seriously.
Mrs. James Leach, of Cherry street,
Dunmore, who was the only woman
on tho car, was the most severely hurt,
and her injuries consisted only of
bruises and a shaking up. Jacob
Schank and Jacob Kclper, of the South
Side, an Hungarian from Dunmore and
a boy from Throop sustained scalp
wounds and bruises, but all of them
were able to walk away unnsslsted.
That some one wns not killed or a,t
least seriously Injured Is truly mar
velous, The front of the car plougcd
Into the field; the middle of It rested
on top of a fence, nnd the rear upper
most corner hung on the edge of tho
culvert. This left tho enr inclined nt
an angle of forty-five degrees, both
lengthwise and sldewlse. Those sitting
In the rear had a drop of eight feet
after sliding off the end of the seat,
while those In the front Beats slmDlv
slid out Into tho grass without having
to suffer a fall.
WENT INTO CREEK.
One passenger who occupied the last
seat landed In the creek which courses
through the culvert. Motorman Mc
cormick went head first through the
front window, sprawling Into the hay.
The conductor, L. II. Harris, landed
on the top of the culvert, being the
only one In the car who did not go
over the embankment.
Seven of the passengers were mem
bers of a ball team bound for Throop
to play a Sunday game.
The accident happened a few minutes
after 1 o'clock. At the foot of the hill,
seventy-five feet above the culvert, Is
a curve bounding towards the west.
The western rail spread, allowing tho
front wheel on the eastern side to run
off. The motorman did not realize this
until forty feet or so had been cov
ered. As he was applying the brakes
with all his strength, the other front
wheel climbed the rail and after run
ning a short distance along the ties,
swerved suddenly Just as the center of
the culvert was reached and plunged
over the edge at an angle of forty-five
degrees with the track.
MRS. LEACH ASSISTED.
It was some time before the passen
gers could comprehend that none of
them were seriously hurt. All wero
able to get up without aid, excepting
Mrs. Leach. She was partially un
conscious for a time and had to be as
sisted when walking to the car which
came down to take them back.
The motorman claimed that he was
running not more than eight miles an
hour, and this was corroborated by
others.
The car was one of the Carbondalo

Furnishings.
