DR. LANSING ON
CIVIC REFORM
HE ADDRESSED THE NORTH
SCRANTON MEN'S SOCIETY.
Pastor of tho Grcon Ridge Presby
terian Church Gave Brief Rcviow
of Work Done by tho Men's Union
nnd Declared Thnt the Lnttcr Or
ganization Was Given Its Plrst
Impetus, In tho Work of Munici
pal Reform by Peculiar Things
Learned About Board of Control.
I lev. Dr. T, J. Lansing, or tho Gicen
ltldge Presbyterian church, lust night
addressed the members of the North
Scranton Men's society, and in the
course of his remarks roforivd to the
work done by tho neighboring Men's
union of Green Hldge, This latter or
ganization was organized lu much the
"lime spirit as the North Scranton soci
ety has been, and Its work along the
lines of city reform nnd the formation
of the Municipal league were suUse
nuunt outgrowths,
He told of some or the discoveries
which led up to the wnr on corrupt
government, and sent a Parthian shot
at the members of the board of control,
by saying: "Whli deliberating about
and talking over local matters we
heard various things which brought us
face to face with the conditions exist
ing In this city. AVc heard of mombois
or the board of contiol making money
out of contracts, we heard that certain
members of the board had ;i regular
tariff on teachers for whom they had
secured positions; we heard of text
books which had got into service by
bribery. AVc discussed this subject at
the time and we have not yet finished
wlthjt."
TICK HKCOND MKHTIXG.
Last night's session was the second
or this club, which was formed in Oc
tober for the purpose of promoting
social and literary ends In North Scran
ton. Sixty members are now enrolled,
and at each monthly meeting the mem
bers will bo addressed by some wcl
known speaker. James T. DuHols, con
sul general to Switzerland; Henry J.
Carr, of this city; Chier of tho United
Stales AVeather Rttreau AVillls J.
Moore, and Henry Fuller, of AVilkcs
Hnrie, are among those who will ad
dress future meetings.
Last night's meeting was opened by
the singing of "America" by all pres
ent, and then, utter the routine work
of the meeting was transacted, in the
course of which AV. H. Richmond and
Dr. Henry Roberta were unanimously
elected honorary members, President
Dolph B. Atherton delivered his inaug
ural address and then introduced Dr.
Lansing.
Dr. Lansing declared that In a cltv
of such constant growth as this, It
seemed to him that tho citizens should
in some way be consolidated, lie said
that unification seemed more prevalent
among baser men than among men of
a higher stamp, nnd that it was a mat
ter for congratulation that an assem
bly of men such as he was adressing
had banded together.
"Two years ago we had a course of
public entertainments, by means of
which we kept people at home and
made them think that Green Ridge
really amounted to something. AAThile
discussing among ourselves city mat
ters, we did u ltttlo investigating nnd
we received reports of tilings which
took place down town nights.
FACED A SERIOUS PRORLFAT.
"When we heard such things we re
alized that we were face to face with
a very serious question. And then last
winter.up sprang the Municipal league.
AVe secured a man its special agent,
who will remain In our employ, too, a
man who has done more in tho iast six
months towards the eliminating of
Illegal liquor establishments, nnd com
pelling tho licensed saloons to carry
out the law, than nil the constabulary
and police of the city have done in the
last ten years.
Dr. Lansing hero turned from the
dlhcusslon of locnl matters, and re
marked upon an account he recently
read of the atrocities committed in
China by tho German, French and
Russian soldiery.
Ho concluded bis address by saying:
"I speak as a follow citizen,
and hope that the time will come
when clubs will be formed In every
ward of men who want no compensa
tion or office, but who will form the
nucleus of a machine to destroy the
bossism of this city, groups of men
moved by a high public spirit who
will help to transform this condition
or which T have spoken.
"T hope you will be guided to pre
eminent success and you enn always
bo assured of the co-operation of your
neighbors, tho Grt-eir Ridge's Men's
union,
Tho society's quartette, J, A, John,
Howard Grillln, Floyd Ilobetiing nnd
Thomas Morgan sang several songs
during the evening, and at the close
of the speeches a tasty luncheon was
served,

Mrs. Johnson Squsky, of nellvue, was
struck by a train at the Jersey Cen
tral railroad crossing, near the Dodge
town bridge, about S.30 o'clock last
night and received Injuries Trom
which she tiled five minutes after her
b"iiig brought Into the Lackawanna
hospital. Tho woman was walking
n,long the tracks-, with tt I'-ycnr-old
Infant child In her arms.
She did not hear the whistle of Hits
approaching train, and was struck
with terrible force. AVhen extricated
from beneath the wheels, her right
leg was found to bo terribly crushed
and severed above tho ankle, and her
bead was gashed by a gaping cut.
The child escaped with a severe con
tusion of the right eye.
The Lacknawannii hospital was no
tilled and Mrs. Squsky was removed
there In the ambulance. Five minutes
after her entry, she died, tho fracltuv

Ha mm Court, Victims of Accident.
Recovery Doubtful.
Mary Fenton, tlie 2-year-old daugh
ter or .Mrs. Fenton, or 206 Hamm
court, South Scranton, was very seri
ously burned yesterday afternoon, her
clothing catching fire from a small
blaze in the street, and she was last
night pronounced to be in a very seri
ous condition, tit the Lackawanna bos
pltal. The mother was also burned
while attempting to put out the blaze,
and with Iter little one was taken to
the hospital.
Tlie child was playing about the
street during the afternoon, and about
4 o'clock ventured too, near a fire which
had been kindled by some other chil
dren. In an instant her clothes wero
aflame and with a shriek of agony she
ran townrds her home, her clothes a
mass of fire. s
The little girl's mother attempted to
put out the flames, and in so doing
badly burned her hands. Mother and
child were taken to the Lackawanna
hospital, where it was seen that the
child was terribly burned about the.
abdomen, chest and limbs. Hcv re
covery is very doubtful.
HOTEL KEEPERS HAVE
LICENSES REVOKED

It is the same in the lealin of thouglit. it
we dcMte to maintain a firm attitude as think
ing men we must adjust our theology to the
MiovvIuIrc of our time. We are often asked,
how to liaiuioiil7e certain -"cientlfle conclusions
with LCit.iiu docilities? 'lint is our (ask. We
must eei, a iceom lli.ition if Mich can be
found. Wc inusl lie as cainesl, siuceic and dili

The Adam of the poets and e-pu Lilly of
Milton, was po-scsi-cl nf the knowledge of 1
modem theologian ami philosopher, and is tar
from being the Adam of Cenc-is or oi science.
Looking at flu- fads of embroIogy the histoiy
of species, ns presented by fossil, lemains; the
stiuetiuc nt human language ami tlie loiitiuuii
progress of the race, owing to the struggle for
existence vvu aro compelled to conclude that
man was once in a slate of brnlellood. Tint
human i-peeih and language are the piodueti
nf a long course of evolution from the indest
and simplest beginnings is one of Ihe imi-,t
evident fait?. Primitive man had lo inven'
vvouls to cxpioss his enlaigeing thoughts and
that it took him many ages to do lliis we cin.
easily believe.
PRIMITIVE MAN.
The hlstoiy of primitive in.fn is pully re
peated in each individual lioin into iiie world.
The cllnVreneo between the ptimltive man and
tho model n child was that he had no pist
fiom whhh lo diaw through the niedla nf his
uncial siuiiiundlngs, while tlm child of tndiy
has a rieli inheritance in the aptitudes utelwi
fiom (owner geueialioiis, tlie social iiiJliienccs
which comp.is and mold him as well as l!u
vast Ksomccs placed ut his command in the
arcuir.iilaled knowledge of the ngc. In the
absence of spoken and wtillcn liuguage, wo
can easily fancy how low wis Ihe condition of
p'limltlve man for many ages. The development
of language was c-cntlal to the evolution of
thought ami the evolution of thought was re
ciuNlte to Ihe evolution of a nei'so of obliga
tion to obey a higher law wllliout which no
such a tiling -is a fall could take place.
The human t.ice like vvuy child boin into
Die vvoihl, began Its career with nuclei eloped
povveis and after nuiij geneiatlous I lie powers
nf the mind inutliiiied lo unfold, lauguige was
slowly Invented, nml when at last the light of
iii-potislhility began lo thlno after thnt it be-c.miv-
poisihlo for him lo rebel against the
higher liw- to which lie found himself the sub
ject. The iliam.1 of the fall Is ailed over In
the hlslmy of eieiv child. As soon a.-, the child
uucigc-s out of that plate of innocence and fiee
tlulu fiom positive iitong, Into a lonscioiiu-is
ot pciionil rfi-ponvlhlllly, It is possible for lilm
