Country 'TIs of Thee" and the pastor

"Our Home Missionary Preachers
How Many and Where" was the sub
ject of Professor Stone's address. Ho
dwelt at length, on the subject and gave
a very Interesting talk. Miss Crist of
fered a well-prepared paper on "Our
Homo Missionary Teachers and the
People They Work For." Mr. Morgan
spoke of ''Our New Fields In Cuba and
Porto Rico." He showed very clearly
that the expansion of our government's
usefulness has Increased the opportuni
ties of the church, and it iu for us to
respond by supporting in every way
all efforts toward lifting the people of
these Islands to a higher plane of liv
ing. Mr. "Williams In discussing the "Rea
sons and Motives for Home MIssIoiih"
dwelt upon our duty to the church In
the cause of missions. He said that
one strong reason for home missions
is the fact that we alone have to do
with giving the gospel of Christ to this
lands of ours., and all nations unite In
extending the work of foreign missions,
Hit we alone have to do with home
missions,
Dr. Moffat made a strong plea for
the home mission work in the Lacka
wanna valley. There nre, he said, over
one hundred thousand people in this
valley who cannot speak the English
language. If we are to remain a tree
people we must be up and delnvr, for
without knowledge of the things that
Uavo made the nation a free people we
cannot hope to maintain the benelits to
lie derived from our free institutions.
He told of "What Out Local Church
Gave Last Year to Home Missions nnd
What We Should Give This Year," and

Seasonable
Cloak News....
Summer lingered loug with us, aud although Novem
ber has come, the warm weather Shirt Waists were
still seen on the streets up till a few days ago. Be
cause of the unparalleled mildness of the season wc
we were slow iu completing our full liue of
Coats and Capes for Winter
And the delay has been to your advantage, as a visit
to the department any day during the present
week will prove, for some of the leadiug manufacturers
of highly tailored garments became pauic-stricken, and
you know what effect that has ou prices.
Well, the Cheap Sale Time
Has not come yet, aud we don't waut you to think for
one moment that prices are cut aud slashed to pieces,
but there is a substantial saving from regular prices in
'," many ot the newest aud. best garments of the season,
while extreme novelties are offered at figures far below
what they ought to bring at this season had the weather
" 'been different.
And' the Line Is So Complete
Iu every conceivable class of Coats, Jackets, or Capes
t for' Ladies, Misses, Children aud even the Rabies, as to
, ". leave nothing to be desirei. Every nevr fad and fancy
is seen at its bast, as well as the more staple styles
which ladies of quieter tastes prefer 'as a rule, A fiuer

section of the state, and' yet the prices are less than
they should be. You kuow why of course

Little Child Severely Burned.
A 5-year-old child of-Mr. and Mrs.
Henry Shnmberg, of Merrllleld ave
nue, was frightfully burned, about the
upper part of the body on Saturday,
and Its recovery Is a matter of serious
doubt to the parents. A number of
children were playing about a bon-llre
In thu yard, when the child fell on tne
burning logs and was rescued with
much dllllculty. Her clothing was
burned from her l.ndy.
William Trostoll, the butcher, was
peddling meat In the vicinity and ran
to the child's assistance. He smothered
the Dames with a blanket and thus
saved the little one from an awful
death. The little girl was carried Into
the bouse tind u physician hastily sum
moned. Everything possible was done
to relieve her of her suffering, but re
covery Is doubtful.

and Hudson Train Trolley Car
Left tho Track on Pittston Avcnuo
Bridge and Four Poisons Were In
jured Three-Year-Old Harry Ha
gen Badly Burned by a Hot Fie.
Personal Notes.
One of the largest funerals ever wit
nessed In this section occurred Satur
day afternoon at 2 o'clock, when Miss
Freda Iterbst, the young girl who was
so terribly mangled by being run over
by a Delaware and Hudson passenger
train Wednesday, was loweied to her
last resting place In Forest Hill ceme
tery. Prior to the funeral, largo throngs
of friends of the family and her eonv
, panlons In the mill, gathered at tho
now she was with Him. -and learned of
Ulm, In the great beyond.
After the services In the church, the
cortege moved to Fprst Hill ceme
tery, where Interment was made. The
pall bearers were men, while six l'ttla
girls, those who had joined tho church
with her tho Sunday previous, acted
as flower bearers. I
Roller Went Wrong.
Sam Johnson, colored, in charge of
the big street rolling Machine now b1
Ing used on Cedar avenue by the Dale
Brick Manufacturing company for
crushing stone, was lighting mad Sat
urday, and was full of " righteous In
dignation."This is the story: While
operating the roller across some plank
ing, which was built across a deep
trench, on his way for water to run
the machine, the planking gave wiy,
and one wheel slipped into the trench.
This machine is not as graceful as an
auto, consequently when Sam turned
on full power, all thu sniffing and
snorting would not move It.
"Lift it out," suggested a bystander.
"Huh!" said Sam indignantly, "Huh;
Who.' you think I am." f
"Take off the wheel and run with
three." suggested another.
"Get up steam and pull her out,"
said a thhd. But here's where the
hitch was. Sam had no water and
could not raise steam, so, fearing an
explosion ho drew the lire, raked the
ash and then carried water to the
boiler in a bucket, raised steam and
pulled her out.
"I donn of'n get mad," he said af
terward, "but I could jest have twisted
the heads orf those debbels who'so
been a guying' me."
Cause of the Steam.
To strangers crossing the Cedar ave
nue bridge over tho Roaring Brook
about 7 o'clock Saturday nights will
be presented an unusual and alarming
feature. For about two blocks tho
stream will have the appearance of
covering a subterranean fire, for steam
is issuing from the water just as fog
rises on a bright morning in some,
meadow land. The cause of this, how
ever, is easily explained. Alter tne
blast furnace has shut down Satur
day evening, the hot watw from the
many large boilers is rjli through
large pipes to the Roaring Brook, and
that coming In contact with the cold
water, produces the mist, or steam.
It is said that on some cold morn
ings in winter, when hot water Is al
lowed to run into the stream, the fog
is so dense on tho brldgo that business
i practically suspended until the fog
, has raised, people and teams cross-
' ing via tho Pittston avenue bridge,
