SPOKE ON PHYSICAL TRAINING Address of Madame Goltere-Daven-port at the Jermyn. The Indies who brnvdel the heat and the rnln yesterday afternoon to listen to Madame Gollere-Davenport, who Kave a talk In the parlors of the Jer myn on physical training;, were fnr more than repaid for the effort. While they were dellRhted beyond measure with her personally, they were Intense ly Interested In the wonderful things she told. It is always a fascinating subject for women to learn how she may be young at seventy, with a com plexion like n Blrl nnd the utter ab sence of the llabblness of flesh which is generally expected after youth dis appears. Still more arc they Interested In keep ing perfect health and preserving beau ty at any ago, and therefore they re ceived unexpected benefit from the words of Madame Davenport. She as serted that there Is no sort of use of losing the grace of youth and the ad vantages of Its charm, and Illustrated the truth of it by the lithe, active movements employed In certain exer cises. For this object lesson she re moved her bodice and showed the pos sibilities of development of a perfect neck nnd arms, of the straight mus cular back and tho conect poise of the body. It wab difficult to believe that the firm, beautiful flesh could belong to a woman of t Jxty-nlne, the mother of eleven sons ' the eldest fifty-three years old. She declared that there was no such thing as age, as recognized generally, and described big posslblllltles of phy lcal training. Golf and kindred exer cises slip docs not consider as means of true development. Fencing Is the greatest physical science; but such ex ercises must be taught after the vital ity la in condition. The average wo man cannot undergo such 3evere meas ures. A woman should so develop her physical tystem as to never be tired. She should lentn such activity, such sureness, touch and movement that sh can climb out of tho seventh story window In case of a fire and not only can save herself but others from drowning. She should bo physically nnd mentally leady for every emerg ency. The doctors tell the speaker that If Fhe insists upon curing stom achs the medical profession will lose Its business. What women first need Is to learn to eat. They may be able to digest food, but not assimilate It. The average Kill has no neck. She can learn to deelop a neck beautiful In contour and irrnco. There Is no ex cuse fo.1 a poor complexion. American women eat too much and have a poor surface crculation. They have uric acid In tho blood to such a degree that theit health Is destroyed. Physicians are to cure disease, not to prevent It: the physical trainer teaches prevention. Ugly skin, a growth of hnlr on the face, eruption and pimples are Indica tions of carelessness and negligence, if not ignorance. No woman need be plain In appear ance or ugly In figure. Good health al ways makes good looks. More than all she can use the personal magnetism which Is everyone's dower nnd thus make herself Irresistibly attractive. Magnetism is vitality in reserve with the power of mental concentration. Too few develop this great power. It Is being alive. Half of the people are half dead. Madame Davenport said In her pret ty foreign way: "I hear your men are very good In Scranton. They are busy, moral and earnest; bul you want to bo able to keep your husband's love, to always attract him and be always fascinating. You can't do that and be In '11 health, HI temper and aged before your time. There are women who want to be able to vote and thus manage political affairs. Uelieve me, they can manage anything a great deal better by being attractive and charming. A woman can manage her husband, she can control affairs great nnd small, but she can't do It with a soured, wrinkled vl.sagp and with the whine of an Invalid. With good health comes good morals and tl'eno can sway the world. It is tho women who can work tho great reform and aid man kind. Madame then gave exercises for the development of the neck nnd arms, and many valuable hints as to diet and correction of digestive ailments. She advlssd following the Democrntlo standard of being "unwashed" as far as tho face Is concerned, a system ot dry grooming being preferable to soap and water or massage as a prevent ive of wrinkles. Too much bathing la to bo deprecated, that Is In "soaking" away the vitality. Just here she gave startling advice, which, If followed by the women of Scianton, will result In an edict from W. W. Scranton compelling' water meters In every private residence. It was this: "Drink eight quarts of wat er during every day before noon!" Small wonder that her listeners gasped. Then Bhc spoke emphatically against alcoholic stimulants of every descrip tion, and urged deep abdominal brenth Ing to correct abdominal troubles. Madame Davenport outlines a system of dietetics and exercises with Individ ual diagnosis for every pupil. If in ten days Improvement Is not noted, nnd In six weeks the experiment does not produce a "new woman" she guar antees giving up the profession she has been practicing for more than forty year.. Her hearers yesterday request ed her to give the series of lessons necessary before she leaves tho city, and accordingly arrangements were made to have a class at Elm Park par sonage this morning, Two lessons, with a system of exercises complete the course, and tho.se who desire to enter the class may do so by being present at 0 o'clock this morning, A large number of ladles will take the course, Tencll nnd paper nro neces sary.

Williams and William Gilbert Each Bring Suit for $15,000 Damages The Wood ward Estate Instituted Suit Some Tlmo Ago for tho Same Amount. Tho Family of the Fourth Victim Have Not Yet Moved to Recover Damages Other Court Matters. Damage suits, In which the claims aggregate 145,000, are now pending ngalnst the Mt. Pleasant Coal com pany ns a result of the mine carriage accident of February 2S, when four men were killed by the platform giving away under them, ns a lesult of the carriage colliding with a projecting fan. There are three suits In nil. The plaintiffs are the heirs of Thomas . Williams, William Qelbert and Frank Woodwnrd. The suit by the Wood ward heirs was brought a month ago, through Vosburg & Dawson. Tho other two suits were brought yesterday, through Attorneys Cornelius Comegys and George L. Peck. Damages In the sum of $15,000 are demanded In each case. In the latter two suits the widows, Mrs. Hannah Lizzie Williams and Mrs. Mary Ann Gilbert, are tho plaintiffs. They sue for themselves nnd as ad ministrators of their dead husband's estates. Mrs. Williams has two minor children, Ilachel and John. Mrs. Gil bert has six children, William Henry, Thomas, Jennie, Ethel, Mary Ann and Albert. The heirs of tho rteenn estate have not ns yet sued. Senator J. C. Vaughan is their attorney. Tho suits promise Interesting trials, owing to the fact that the fellow-employes' liability act will enter Into them to a largo extent. If tho plain tiffs can show that the lever controll ing the fan was defective the company can be held liable. If It Is shown that the accident was duo to caielessness on the part ot some employe. In not properly fastening the lever, there Is a possibility of the court granting a non suit. The testimony adduced at the coro ner's jury was not of a convincing character. It was made to appear, however, that the manner of locking the lever was not what might be called extremely safe, and further, It was quite clearly proven that tho lever In question had been used extensively during the early morning Immediately preceding the accident, and that there was a probability that the loverman failed to properly lock the lever. A spike set In a post held tho lever In place nnd kept the fans in against the sides of the shaft. When the lever was down the fans protruded and held the carriage. It Is supposed the spike was caused to fall out by tho Jarring of the ascending nnd descending car ilage and, the lever being allowed to drop, projected the fans Into the shaft. Another theory Is that a piece or Ice or some other heavy substance fell down the shaft, struck the rods con necting the fans with the lever and caused the lever to drop. Claims He Is Insolvent. In flic desertion case of the Common wealth against Stephen DIckert, In which the defendant was sent to the county Jail last March for failure to comply with an order of court direct ing him to pay the costs of prosecution, a fine and $10 a month towards the support of his wife, application was made yesterday by DIckert's attorney, John F. Scragg, for an order directing his discharge under the insolvency laws. DIckert declares that he owns no property, owes nothing and that no body owes him anything. Sickness nnd consequent Inability to work placed him In this condition, he says. Judge Archbald fixed August 13, at 9 o'clock a. m., as the time for the hear ing on the application, the prosecutrix to have ten days' notice. Tax Collectors' Bond. The bond of Harry Harding, tax col lector of Old Forge, was approved by Judge Archbald yesterday nnd filed with Clerk of the Courts Thomas P. Daniels. It was In the sum of $43,507. 92. The sureties are John W. Farady, John Surber, William Sowden, Wallace Ormston, Joseph James, Itobert John son, Patton Taylor, Griffith Hlehards, Henry Macklnder and John S. Metz. Judge John P. Kelly approved tho bond of H. G. Smith, collector for Pon ton township, nnd It was filed In Clerk Daniels' offlce. It Is in the sum of $10,. 000, nnd has as sureties L. M. Frank lin, James Delevnn and L. J. Van Fleet Marriage Licenses. Park Evans Elmhurst Eflle M. Seeley Elmhuist MAKTIN SHEBMAN ARRESTED. He Is Charged with the Larceny of a Coat. Martin Sherman, colored, was arrest ed on Penn avenue last night, and taken to the central police station by City Detective Molr and Lieutenant Davis, charged with the larceny of n coat valued at $15,from Spencer Mason, of Steelton borough, July 5.

Palne's Men Discharged, When Street Commissioner Roland Thomas tok the men lr had working on tho Ablngton turnpike oft the Job on Tuesday It was because he was laboring under a mlsnpptehenslon nnd they were accordingly put back to work yesterday morning. The street commissioner thought that the Injunction served on him on Monday night prevented him from doing any work whatever on the road nnd he accordingly ordered the men to stop soon nftor they commenced work on the road, lie consulted the city solicitor and was Informed that the Injunction merely restrained him from interfering with Mr. Palne's won:. Acting under this advice Mr. Thomas put eight of his nvn back to work yesterday morning. Mr. Paine also had several men nt work several bun dled feet away and wns himself di recting operations. Sonip of the councllmen are begin ning now to openly oppose tho ordi nance appropriating $1,000 for the re pair of the load which they formerly fawired. Till." Is because Mr. Palno persists In wot king on the road while the city Is doing the work of repair ing. They contend tint Mr. Puino has frequently asserted that whenever tho city wanted to repair the road the company would graciously step down and out, nnd they nrgue that the pres ident of the company Is not living up to his word. Aldermnn Millar decided yesterday to discharge Mr. Paine and the eight workmen who were nrrested on Mon day for violating a city ordinance In tearing up the turnpike without a per mit, nnd thereby obstructing traffic. The aldermnn decided that the street wns not obstructed. The matter will come up in common council tonight, whvn Luther Keller expects to secure the passage on sec ond and third reading of the ordinance appropriating the $1,000. MINSTRELS COMING.
