'M SWPV T? )i 0 KlWlWlWl Social GOLF HAS somewhat subsided, but a return maitch will Its bo played at Wllkcs-Biirro to dny on the llnko of the Wyo ming Valley club. , A larjr number of Scranton pcoplo will go. For the first tlmo In tho history of 'American golf, a club has undertaken to say that a certain make of ball Hhall not be used. There was a sU;n nt the first, tee at Baltuarol announc ing that a certain very elastic and "bouncy" ball of recent Invention was barred. At first It was said that this was mi-onl to nppl only In tho drlvlntr competition. But when ono of the players, who uses this ball, constantly, made Inquiries she was told' that the hall must not bo used nt all. There was a small sized rebel lion on the (jpot nnd Iho player de clared that no club can, under the present rules, debar uny ball that any player may choose to use. Shu plead ed her argument so strongly nnd stud: to It so persistently that the club ofil cluls were In a quandaiy. And she drove off with It, too, and used It for tho first hole, there changing; It for r gutta percho. The club afterward took down tho sign, but It was under Ktood thai tho ball was not to bo used in drlvbig. Harry Vardon treated golf onthus slasts of Boston to a rare exhibition of the ancient game yesterday when ho played on and broke the record of the Oakley Country Golf course at "Watcrtown. The opponents of the British champion were Alexander Findlay and Donald Ross, the latter tho champion of tho Oakley club. This former record, held by Ross, was 7S an Vardon cut one stroke off the fig ure during his play. Vardon was three up when he had completed eigh teen holes and the last half he halved, winning tho match. Ills putting was open to criticism, but his driving made ample amends for this weakness. The Scranton Chess club has reor ganized and will have a gay season, that. Is, If the silent game can ever bo classed as "gay." At the last meeting, held in the studio of Artist John Bralnard, In the Price building, officers were elect ed for the ensuing year. Colonel F. L. Hitchcock was again chosen presi dent, and Robert C. Adams was made secretary. The club will meet weekly, every Saturday night, at the office of Attorney Peck, in tho board of trude building. Among the members are: Profes sors Frledewald, W. E. Schlmpff and John U. Wagner, Colonel F. L. Hitch cock, Edmund A. Bartl, R. C. Adams. Wilson Bailey, John Bralnard, W. Loveland, Joseph Miller, Winfred J. Northup, E. G. Worden, John G. Sher wood, Leo Schlmpff, Lionel Ernst, George Davidson, Frank Davidson, Attorney Peck, Dr. Porteus, of Tay lor; F. R. Walsh, of Jerniyn. Next Thursday will be donation day at the Home for tho Friendless and great preparations are being made for that pleasant event. It Is Intended to have tho evening devoted to a recep tion to friends of tho home and an entertainment to which no tickets are Issued and only a silver offering la asked. Comparatively few people have ever visited the new building since it was occupied, and thl3 will be a most pleasant opportunity. Miss Ross, of New York, a well known reader, will give a unique programme of recitations, and this will be varied by charming solos by Mrs. H. H. ISrady, jr. Bauer's orchestra will also .-ontrlbute its services tor the enter tainment. F.verybody will be welcome and the joy it will afford the old ladles :.nd little children to sec ho many friends como to brighten their monot onous lives will be worth the effort to be present. Tho entertainment will begin at 3 o'clock and will bo brief, giving time fur visitors to see much of thu institution in which so many are deeply interested. Ore of the most pleasant features of the veceptlon at St. Luke's parish Wcdncsduy night were the vocal so lections given by Miss Irene Kami, who strengthened herself In the heorts of her numerous admirers na well us winning many new friends.

The children's ward at the lia-pttal will then be put in shape for the reception ot patient?. i HBR POINT OF VIEW j THE SUBJECT of water raw or boiled is again agitating the households or this elty. If you want to live out your days you will take it boiled, say the doctors, but simple as it may seem, there are ob stacles in the way of this proceeding1 little dreamed of in the philosophy of the average man. "I want to live as long as anybody," declared a young matron the other day', "but I've given up the hope ot illling my allotted span. It would be easier to die than to get boiled water in our house. Last week the edict went forth that we must have all tho drinking water boiled. At least, to quote 'Elizabth and Her German Gar den,' the Man of Wrath came homo one noon and announced that here after, until further notice, no other than boiled water must bo provided. I asked him if Mr. Scranton had been adding a steam plant to the water company's outfit, a question which he disdained to answer and he has been making life a burden to nie over since with his suspicions. "When I suggested that to be really safe, we should boll the ice, too. he became very unreasonable In temper and one day when the water came on sickly-yellow in tint and strangely sickening in flavor, ho set down his glass ha emphatically that It was broken. Investigation revealed the faut that cook had put tho water to cool in the brown Jug we commonly usu tor vinegar. Sometimes she calls me csido previous to the meal and confides in a hoarse whisper: 'I did forget to fill it this onct. mum. but I won't agin'. Ye can just let on to him that It's been a billn' all tho blessed day long,' which, of course, I cannot, although tho cook will never, never give me credit for any virtue in not trying to deceive 'him' nbout the water. Indeed, I believe in her heart of hearts she thinks me a poor sort of creature, because of this pecu liarity. "At other times she becomes very fore-handed and boils kettle-fulls and kettle-fulls, filling up the refrigerator with all sorts of vessels; nnd the day comes when the head of the house snuffs with suspicion at his glass und tastes more cautiously and finally re marks, solemnly: 'Maria, that water has a strangely familiar flavor. It's the same old water wo had four days ago, for I recognize the taste of that cabbage salad,' and then there is more trouble in the family. I do wish to goodness," exclaimed the little lady In an exasperated tone, "that a wise Providence would supply boiled water and save us all this bother." "You might as well wish that thore would bs no such thing as microbes," returned her friend, with true feminine consolatory art. To havo water actually boiled for drlnklig purposes is really a trial in most families. It Is only by tho ut most vigilance op the part of tho house-wife that the process is any thing but a furee. The uverago do mostlo considers It supreme nonsense. Sometimes she serves ii boiled, but oftoner not. U Ice is placed In tho pitcher tho -purposo j3 defeated and by allowing the water to stand long enough to get palatably cold it fre quently beems to tuko on the flavor of vegetables and other stores in the re frigerator. At best, boiled water is flat, stale and unprofitable. The other day the maid in a certain homo was nsked If tho water served at luncheon had been boiled, "Yes, ma'am," she replied, adding with praisoworthy candor: "That Is ma'am, most of It has. Tho pitcher wasn't quite full nnd I did Just now turn some In from tho hydrant, so to be buio yo'd havo enough," and she beamed with the satisfaction of one who knows she Is pleasing everybody. I hnvu yet to see the pet'bou who looks with l'uvor on the new monument as it Is now locatod; and as now locat ed 11 Is likely to ho until tlmo or tho final upheaval of things elfects u change- of base, thero Is a probability that a greut many dissatisfied peoplo will gaze upon It In the course of gen orations to come. It is a beautiful monument und stately nobody can deny that. Tho plllaid superstructure gives it a classi cal look totully at variance with the predominating features of Scranton ar chitecture. It is a monument of which any city might well bo proud, but JJ does look like a comic Valentino placed Where It Is. Nobody over dreamed that It would bo bo big and formidable Unit It would make the court house appear worse thnn it did before, nnd the elm Ireca llko rose bushes that Imvo boon stunted. Nobody would linve dreamed thnt George Wash ington and Christopher Columbus would, In comparison, resemble two little boys In pinafore and llrst trousers respectively, starting out In life with a noble ambition to be good, but seeming comically trivial. ltrally every tlmo ono takes a look at that monument it has increased In stature until day by day tho effect be comes more overwhelming. One thing Is reasonably certain, however, there will bo at least ono spot on tho court house suuuro not popular with loafers, and that will be tho lmmodlato vicinity of thu new monument. It would crcato such consternation If some fine day It should topple over. If only tho good people had put It nny where else on the face of the earth than where It Is. That court houso square is going to look llko moving-day or an old-fashioned house-cleaning, "I wonder why Madge always sits and walks and stands and appears In general on tho loft Bide of her hus band," remarked nn acquaintance of the young woman In question. "Why, I've seen her disturb a whole row of peoplo In order to place herself on that side, and she Is Just tho snmo when with any ono else." "Why, don't you know?" exclaimed a friend. "Haven't you ever noticed that ono sldo of Madge's face Is n great deal prottior than the other? It's the right aide, and that's whore that seductive dlmplo Is, nnd tho dear little plont at the corner of her mouth, nnd her hair curls much bettor on that side. Funny, isn't it? Well, she's found out her good points and makes the most of them. You know that mole on the other sldo of her face, and she hasn't any dlmplo there, and her mouth Isn't so pretty, and you remem ber the scar on her chin; but the right' bide is perfect In profile and she doesn't propose to havo it wasted. I think It's pretty clover; and best of all Madge takes o. lot of trouble to turn the best side of her disposition outward so that her friends and every body in the same house get the reflex action. I honestly believe she has so long studied her good point's physical ly and has tried to give them a chance that she has practiced the same thing with her temper her good humor and her happy moods, to say nothing of her unselfishness and gentleness. She wasn't than way always. I can re member when she used to snap and frown just the same as tho rest of us, but she hasn't done so for ever so long. I shouldn't be surprised If she yot managed to develop what she calls the ugly side of her visage into genuine beauty. I know one thing, she shuts herself up In her room when she feels ono of tho old ugly moods coming on, and when she emerges such a smiling face you never saw. Good plan, Isn't it? But I don't really think the pco plo in my vicinity would aptucciate so much self-sacrlflee on my part." And the speaker smiled herself out of the room. Saucy Bess. m NEW YORK FASHIONS. Millinery, Extremes in. Buckles and Roses, New Costumes, Skirts, Silks, Winter Coverings. Special to the Pcranlun Tribune. Now York, Oct. 10. First-class mil liners are rejecting to a considerable extent exaggerated plumage, prefer ing rather lowly combinations of vel vet, flowers, particularly roses, tinted leaves, laee and tur. A beautiful crimson velvet hat seen at a recent opening Is of a medium, .sized round shape, with a cap crown, a Rhine stone buckle In scroll bhapo at each side, and a brim formed of large silk and velvet rose leaves, overlapping each other. Stiff white lace huts, edged by fur, or velvet folds, with a gilt band around tho crown, and a bunching of pale blue panne velvet at ono or both sides are lovely for voting people, at the same time velvet folds may be used Instead of a gilt hand. A. WREATH OF AUTUMN LEAVES, on the crown and another on tho brim with a few flowers beneath, and a mammoth Rhine stone buckle, is a most recherche trimming for a plain velvet hat. Russian sable, chinchilla and mink are conspicuous In high cla.H3 millinery, und entire hats are made of chinchilla in much the same style as those of last season. Buckles aro larger than ever before, eighteen Inch es being about tho limit nnd when of such size are bent around tho front of the hat. Extremes in roses Intended for entire crowns of hats, are twelve inches In diameter, and retail at. $5 apiece. SKIRTS always a vexatious problem, flare quite as much as ever, and often tho over skirt Is more simulated than real. An elegant black velvet costume shown by a lending house, has a plain skirt, fit ting closely round the hips, and trimmed with two wide rows of Vene tian lace, over gilt bands. The cor sago is an Eton jacket edged with similar lace, and a blue chiffon front contrasts well with Inner Jacket fronts of flowered panne velvet. Narrow black velvet straps with small Rhine stone buckles aro attached In clus ters to tho edge of tho velvet fronts, and a wldo flowered velvet "crush belt" nnd puffs on tho sleeves at tho wrists, give an elegant finish. A SECOND HANDSOME costume In pale pink cloth showed the skirt In tailor finish, nnd on a scam directly In front, were three black em broidered cloth straps turning up wards. Flvo, narrow plain cloth straps about tho hips. Eton Jacket edeed with black; full lace front having nar row overlaid gilt bands and small trllt buttons. Wldo black "crush belt," and collar of lace, stitched cloth and blnek embroidery, Sleeves to tho elbow wi h, lace uudersUeves and embroidered cloth cuffs. Soft nnd clastla ns kid and capable of being cleansed In tho laundry, It Is not surprising that the Cunnold dress shields lire selected by leading dressmakers, In preference to ull others, and to n render desiring In formation, the answer ran bo given that they were used for tho costumes Just described. That short skirts will be worn in the street Is a settled fuot from tho variety of materials shown for that purpose, and dotted or em broidered flannel waists are another foregono conclusion; an entire window of a fashionable house being taken up by material for the same, BLACK TAFFETA.
