"Hats Off, Gentlemen!"
"Hats ofT, gentlemen, a genius!"
wrote the great Schumann of the then
unknown Chopin. The same can be
eald of the eminent pianist, Carl Fael
ten, on account of his method for
teaching piano, which bears all the
marks of a genius. And a charm there
is in the fact that while It is so ad
mirably devised for developing skillful
pianists, its bears within itself the
power of reducing the cost of Instruc
tion more than one-half, and ot equal
ly lengthening the time given to the
lessons.
In boldly preferring the Taclten
method to tho old form of private les
sons (which can be had, if desired)
the Scranton Conservatory of Music
is acting In the interests of the public
and good music "with a wisdom nc
cording to knowledge."

NEW HOSPITAL WARD. .
. '
Lackawanna Will Need an Adltlonal
Physician and More Nurses.
Several changes will bo necessitated
In the resident staff of the Lackawan
na hospital when the new children's
ward Is completed. The number of
nurses will have to be increased and
another house surgeon may be re
quired A good ucnl of extra woik will be
canned by this addition to the hos
pltnl nnd tho board of directors has
already decided to secure five new
nurses, nnd, if this number is not suffi
cient, to later secure more. This will
raise tho present staff from eighteen
to twenty-three nurses.
No nctlon has been taken ns yet re
garding the securing of a new surgeon,
but it seems that there will be need
of another physician. Anangements
aru made In the new ward for cots
for fifteen children and room Is also
made for contagious cases In the isol
ated ward on the third lloor. This ad
mitting patients suffering from con
tnglous diseases will be an entirely
new departure, ns hitherto there have
been no facilities whatsoever at the
hospital for these unfortunates, and
the need of a separate ward has been
greatly felt.
Tho new wards will be ready for oc
cupancy In about three weeks, by
which time all arrangements will be
completed for the staff which will be
in charge of It.
IF YOU SEE IT IN
THE TRIBUNE IT'S SO
Taxpayers Caused Much Worrlment
and Annoyance by Untrue An
nouncement of Contemporary.
Tnxpaycis throughout the city were
caused wotilincnt nnd anxiety yester
day morning because the Republican
announced that councils bad failed to
pass the resolution extending tho time
for collecting taxes without a penalty
until October IB nnd that occordlngly
a three per cent, penalty would be
added today.
The Tribune announced the facts as
they really stood, namely, that select
council had passed the resolution and
that Mayor Molr would sign It. The
municipal building was thronged with
an anxious crowd of taxpayers yes
terday morning, Inquiring which an
nouncement waM correct and receiving
the reply that what The Tribune said
was true and that the extension had
been granted. If you see It In The
Tilbune its so.
A few mornings ago our esteemed
contemporary Indulged In another
dteam on the same question, when it
printed a display head story announc
ing that Mayor Molr would lefuse to
sign tlfc resolution granting the ex
tension of time. As a matter of fact,
tho mayor never had the Idea of veto
ing the resolution in his mind for a
second, and as proof of this It might
li mentioned that he signed It yester
day morning before he had his hat off,
after entering his olllce.
As anticipated in The Tilbune yes
tciday morning, the Lackawanna com
pany came to the rescue yesterday
and paid Its taxes, amounting
to f 20,000, In full. Last night when the
treasurer's office closed, It was esti
mated that there was neatly $40,000
in the feasuiy.
Controller Howell will accordingly
countersign this morning the $30,000
worth of warrants now In his posses
sion so that the sheet employes and
city ofllclals and others ran get their
money as soon as possible.
LIGHTBODY ASSAULTED YATES.
Latter Now Seeks to Obtain $5,000
Damages.
John Yates yesterday began an ac
tion against John Llghtbody to re
eoer $5,000 damages fo: petsonal In
juries. Attorney II. I). Carey repre
sents the plaintiff.
Yates alleges In his declaration that
on June 11 last, Llghtbody entered

plaintiff diiected Llghtbody to leave,
whereupon he alleges the latter struck
nnd knocked him down and Indicted
such peveie Injuries that he wns con
fined to bed for two weeks.
He desires the court to compel Light
body to recompense him for tho an

LAID TO REST WITH
SOLEMN SERVICES
FUNERAL OF REV. D. J. MAC
GOLDRICK. St. Peter's Cathedral Crowded with
Persons Who Came to Assist at the
Requiem Mass Which Was Cele
brated by Very Rev. Eugeno A.
Garvey Largo Number of Priests
of the Diocese Were Present In
terment Made in tho Priests' Plot
In Cathedral Cemetery.
The last ceremonies over the late
Rev. D. J. MacGoldrlck took place yes
terday morning In St. Peter's cathe
dral In the presence of an assemblage
which for magnitude has seldom been
gathered In that, edifice. Thoe who
met together to pay the sorrowful duty
to the dead weie not of one sect or
belief, but represented numberless
creeds and classes of society.
To many who were present, tho Im
posing service, so dignified In charac
ter, was stiange and perhaps incom
prehensible, except that It seemed fit
ting that the most solemn rites of the
church he had loved should thus be
peifoimed over one whose life had
been a tender, consecrated saciiflce.
Tho scene was wonderfully Impress
he. Far Into the central aisle ex
tended the high catafalque, heavily
draped, and above which, at an incline,
was lifted tile casket. There were no
flowers, and no hint of anything but
the simplicity thut had characterized
the deceased In life.
From an early hour, up and down
the steps passed the throngs of people
to look upon the face of the dead,
while the Knights of Columbus stood
near as a loving guaul.
DltAPKD IN MOt'IlNING.
Black draperies, with the put pie of
mourning, were hung at every po'nt
about tin' altar. At either side of the
caket stood three tall candles, above
black pedestals, from which depended
streamers of purple ribbon. The morn
ing sun sent a shaft of light through
the purple lobes of a window -saint,
and It fell In a violet flame across the
blow of the dead priest.
The body of the church was occu
pied by the membeis of the Knights
of Columbus and the Catholic Histori
cal Society and Newman Magn
zlne club, while at the right a large
section of the nave was reserved for
the Sisters of the Immaculate Heart,
who sat, a throng of Immovable fig
ures, their black robes adding solem
nity to the picture.
Within the altar rail were tho mem
beis of the clergy In white chasubles.
The celebrants of the mass woie the
full vestments of black and silver.
Nothing mote deeply Impressive than
the chanting of the ofTlce for the dead
by the great assemblage of priests can
be Imagined, succeeded as it was by
the solemn high mass of requiem. At
the conclusion of the mass the Very
Rev. Eugene A. Garvey spoke bilefly,
as follows:
NO EULOGY NEEDED.
"There will be no sermon today.
Father MacGoldrlck will be burled ac
coidlng to the prescilbed rules of that
religious order to which he devoted
the best years of his life and to which
lie was still attached. He does not
need the praise of men. His whole
life was his best eulogy. He did not
hide his light under a bushel, but gave
the gifts and talents which God gave
him in perfoimance of his spiritual
duties, and it was In his arduous
labor, unceasing activity In these
duties that he lost his health. Where
Is the need of praise of a man like
him?
"He never sought the approbation or
eulogy of men, except their respect
and love. The presence of the large
congregation this morning shows that
he had that lespect and love. He died
with all the consolations of his church.
I was with him when death came. He
was sui rounded by the members of the
Jesuit Older, with whom .ho studied,
and with whom Iip associated In his
chosen work, some of whom he had'
known since boyhood. I read the
prayer oer him, and when the end of
that piuyer was leached his soul took
Its flight. May God ge him eternal
lest. Pi ay for him, preserve his mem
ory in piayer that he may rest In
peace."
FINAL ABSOLUTION.
Silently then began the final absolu
tion of the dead as the celebrants
stood about the eoflln and the faint
odor of Incenao rose on the air.
Pathetically touching was the slow
processional as all the priests took
their last tearful look at their co
woikpr. Then six of their number
can led him forth to the outer door,
and In the priests' plot In the Cathe
dral cemetery he was laid away, while
the pilests sang the benedlctus.

heaisp upie Hevs. J. V. Moylan, Trank

He Will Today Succeed Mr. Russell
as the General Superintendent of
the D., L. & W. Rnllroad Mr.

with Whom He Has Long Been
Associated in Railroad Work.
The retirement of n, G. Russell, as
general superintendent' of tho Dela
ware, Lackawanna nnd Western rail
road, which has been expected for sev
eral months, was oftlclally unnounced
esteidny In this city, when President
W. II. Truesdale notified the local of
ficials in a short order stating that
Thomas E. Clarke, the present division
superintendent, would succeed to the
geneiul superintendent' today The
leslgnatlon is not entirely voluntary,
but lias been hastened by a private
business matter which Mr. Russell has
had In view for some time,
A few dnys ago the general superin
tendent was called to New York In
consultation with Piesident Truesdale
nnd hns since been in New York. On
Thuisday Superintendent Clarke was
also called to New York, and when ho
returned to his ofllce yesterday con
fit med the stoiy. In conversation with
a Tribune man, Mr. Clarke stated that
Mr. Russell's retitement is due to sev
eral reasons, but did not care to state
them, preferring that Mr. Russell fur
nish the information hlmelf. Continu
ing, he said:
CLOSRLY ASSOCIATED.
"I have known Mr. Russell about
twenty years During a good portion
of this time we were business asso
ciates and enjoyed a veiy warm per
sonal friendship, which was also par
ticipated In by our families. I resigned
an lmpoitant lallroud position in Iowa
the last of July, partly In consequence
of the road which I was with merging
Into another system, when Mr. Russell
promptly offered me a place with him,
which, after taking two weeks' vaca
tion, I accepted and fully expected to
lemaln In my new position indefinite
ly. "Shortly nftvr coming heie Mr. Rus
sell informed me that ho was purpos
ing a change of base to occur probably
In September, but I did not under
stand It was to come so soon, and I
think he may have hastened It for some
private business reasons. We are the
very besb of friends and always will
be, nnd I nm glad to know that he will
continue his residence in Scranton for
some time."
From 1SS1 to 1SS.". W. H. Truesdale
