PBIOEBURG STILL ON THE MAP.
But It Had a Mighty Close Call from
Been Galvestonlzed.
There was a good newspaper sloty
almost up In 1'rlceburg, Tuesday
night. Detestation of soft coal, engen
dered during the strike, ranked still In
tho breasts of some l-rfcelitircers, and
when word wont out, during the after
noon, that a carload nt It was part ot
a mixed train standing on n Delaware
and Hudson siding, a determination
formed In tho minds of some biillovor
In direct methods to proceed to choke
off tho competition by hunting the coal
us It stood In tho cm.
Accordingly, Into at night, the car
wtcs set allto and tho , Incendiaries
tpik'tly withdrew to it safe distance to
watch the excitumont. When the
clouds commenced to gather they
emerged from their hiding and Joined
In the general Jubilation nt what was
considered a very smart trick.
Hut It wan not long before their Jubi
lation was turned lo dismay, Homeonc
discovered, from u tag oltached, that
the car next the one afire was loaded
with dynamite, and the tng further In
dicated that there was Just about
enough dynamite In the car to make of
tho place where rrlceburg stands, the
destination ot metiopolllan newspaper
relief trains.
Tho follows who had sot lire to tho
detested bituminous had been consult
ing among themselves about tho ad
visability of quietly throwing out hints
.(hat If the assemblage really felt con
strained to do some hero-worshipping,
It had better consult them about who
ilghtfully should be enthroned.
The discovery of the tag and tits ter
rorizing announcement decided them
Instauter. They guessed they wouldn't
boast.
The heroic half-dozen men who did
not join the mad rush for the cyclone
cellnrs, succeeded, with the aid ot vari
ous Impromptu levers, in prying the
dynamite car away from Its blazing
neighbor, and the townspeople came
back on earth.
Detective Martin Crlppen, of the
Delaware and Hudson company, an
nounces that the parties who started
the fire will learn something to their
interest by communicating with him.
STRIKE AT OXFORD .
HAS BEEN SETTLED
Differences Between the Operators
and Men Are Adjusted Cause
of the Difliculty.
The differences between the employes
and operators of the Oxford colliery
has been satisfactorily adjusted, nnd
tho men will return to work tomorrow
morning. The strike was the outcome
of a misapprehension on the part of
the mine workers, and inasmuch as tho
operators were inclined to meet tho
men half way, a settlement was easily
effected.
Prior to the geneial strike in the an
thracite region, -a number of men were
employed in the Oxford laying tracks,
limbering the shaft and doing other
work about tho colliery. When that
work was completed, the men were
under tho impression that they wore to
secure the first places in tho mines. As
the operators claim, they themselves
reserved the right to employ whoever
they please, and over this point the dif
ficulty arose.
Places will now be found for nearly
all of the men who went out over a
week ago, and tho same scale of wages
will bo paid as is paid at the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Wesetrn collieries.
The settlement was brought about bv
a committee representing the mine
workers, who conferred with the oper
ators in reference to a settlement.
SIXTY WERE EXAMINED.
Large Number Want to Work for
Uncle Sam.
Just an even sixty applicants were
examined yestorday for the govern
ment positions of letter carrier nnd
postal clerk by the local board of ex
aminers, Louis Shautz, W. D. Roche
and D. II. Jenkins, The examination
was conducted in the United States
court room.
The subjects in which the applicants
were examined were as follows: Or
thography, arithmetic, letter writing,
penmanship, copying from plain copy,
t'nlted States geography and reading
addresses. Tho latter are furnished by
the civil service commissioners and
form probably the hardest part of tho
examination, many being especially
haul to decipher.

WORK OP A
MOTHER'S CLUB
OUTLINED YESTERDAY BY MRS.
A. R. RAMSEY.
Sho Spoke Before the Household
Ecouomlc's Section of the Green
Ridge Woman's Club Said That a
Mother' Club Can Raise the
Stnndarde of Home Life and Bring
Into Closer Relations the Home and
School Paid Her Respects to
School Boards.
Tho alms and purposes of tho Penn
sylvania Congress of Mothers, an or
ganization allied with tho National
Congress ot Mothers, wore most Inter
estingly and ably presented yesterday
afternoon to a large number of tho
members of tho Household Kconomlc's
section of the Green Itldge Woman's
club by Mrs. A. IX. Ramsey, of Phila
delphia. Mrs. Ramsey spoke In tho pretty
little auditorium of tho Green Rldgo
library and her remarks were listened
to by a very large number of women.
She Is In charge of the woman's de
partment of tho Philadelphia Public
Ledger, and Is bright, brainy and bril
liant. Sho Is the mother ot several
children herself, and when she roeaks
regarding the cares nnd duties ot
motherhood, she speaks not as a fanci
ful theorist, but as one whose knowl
edge comes from experience.
Sho presented especially the advant
ages accruing to all mothers who form
mothers' clubs and ally themselves
with tho Pennsylvania Congress ot
Mothers. One of the principal objects
of the Mothers' club, she said, Is to
raise the standards of homo life and
thus develop a wiser and a better
trained parenthood.
THE UNWHOLESOME HOME.
"Do you not know homes," said she,
"where gossip, dross, frivolous amuse
ments, love of money and social am
bition have eaten away the very sub
sistence ot good taste nnd character
and destroyed all taste for the good in
life and for art nnd literature?"
The bringing of the home and school
into a closer relationship, so that par
ent and teacher may co-operate intel
ligently In the education ot the child,
was something else a Mathers' club
can accomplish, she said.
"On this subject." said she, "a vol
ume might be written. The teacher's
and the mother's view of the same
child may bo radically different and
yet both may be true. What is easier
than to put these two views together
and try to find tho real child. How
can this be done if the mother and
teacher are kept apart?"
The work of lending a hand in the
efforts being put forth to surround tins
childhood of the whole state with that
loving, wise care in the Impressionable
years of life, so that good citizens in
stead of law-breakers and criminals
may be developed, is another one of
the aims which the state congress is
seeking to accomplish through Moth
ers' clubs, Mrs. Aani3ey stated.
"The olllcers of the Pennsylvania
congress," she said, "are examining
and compiling the laws of all the other
states which relate to the care and
government of children and will try
to secure such legislation as may be
needed to give every child In Pennsyl
vania a chance to be a good citizen
nnd to lessen his temptations to be a
law-breaker or a criminal.
Mrs. Ramsey took up at some
length the necessity of securing a dif
ferent administration of flip public
school system of the state than at
present exists in many cities.-.
POWER OF THE SCHOOLS.
"Ot course, we are not blind," said
she, "to tho great power of our public
school system. Wo want to get moth
ers to go into the schools as visitors,
not as teachers with tho intention of
teaching tho teacher how to teach, but
.simply as interested friends of both
teacher and children.
"1 need only remind you that women
who complain ot school exactions
hhould make some study of our public
school system. It will prove an Inter
esting subject for a woman's work,
but I warn you that It will bring the
conviction that woman should serv
on local school boards. They did so
long ago and then dropped It.
"You should not be too rich, too
busy, too indolent, too timid, too femi
nine, too anything, for this task. Your
presence is as valuable on the school
board as In the home. Don't let peda
gogical theorists and unskilled men do
all nlone tho special export work ot
feeding tho minds and strengthening
the bodies of our little children.
"That Is what we do at present, and
even worse. We elect men for the po
.sltlon of school controller who have
not tho first qualifications of exporl
onco or capability; men who havo
nothing merely beyond tho fact that
they have a political pull, which puts
them In their plaee and keeps them
there.
"There are often very good und con
servative men who are serving on
school boards, but qultn as often thero
are not. Tho good men are often
times so Immersed in their private
business or in tho Interests of a thous
and and one charities and what not.
that their presence nt board meetings
is merely prefunctory.
TI1KY MAKE THE LAWS.
"Yet these men represent you. They

sentatives to intiko for your child."
It was ttiinnlmotiiily decided nt tho
conclusion of Mts. Ramsey's talk, the
a Mothers' club should bo organized,
and steps will bo taken fit once to form
one. It will be n sub-department nt
tho household economic section and

Last evening, Mrs. Ramsey was ten
dered an Informal reception at the
charming home of Mrs. R. 15. Hurley,
on Electric avenue. A number of the
members of the Women's club woiv
In nttendnnce nnd a most enjoyable
evening was spent. Mrs. Ramsey gave
a brief talk on a plan for a corres
pondence course on chllJ study, now
being started by the state Congress
of Mothers.
CITY VISITED BY
A SEVERE STORM
Considerable Damnge Done by a
Miniature Cyclone of Five Min
utes' Duration Which Swept
Over the City.
I
What appeared to be the tall end ot
a western cyclone struck this city yes
terday afternoon about 1.15 o'clock nnd
made things extremely lively for Just
about five minutes.
It had been threatening rain and
rain was confidently expected by those
who watch the signs, but It was not
expected to come quite as quickly as
It did. The sky darkened up all In a
minute and before pedestrians or any
person out of doors realized It they
were right In the teeth of a bitter gale.
The rain came down In torrents and
was blown In great sheets by the wind,
which came up suddenly In a furious
manner. Many swinging signs In the
central part of tho city were blown
down and many windows wore broken.
So fierce was the wind that one of
the large plate glass windows In front
of A. R. Gould's carriage repository, on
Linden street, was blown in and
smashed to pieces. A big swinging
sign in front of the United States Ex
press company's office, on North Wash
ington avenue, was blown down and
struck one of the big front windows,
breaking It.
The surprising thing about the storm
was tho quickness with which it
cleared olf. Tt was less than live min
utes when the .wind had simmered
down to tin ordinary breeze and the
rain had become a mere drizzle.
The storm did considerable damage
In the Twentieth ward, where the high
wind which swept from the south had
a fair swing. Fences were blown
down and houses upturned and roofs
blown away. A largo portion of the
fence surrounding the Sauquolt silk
mill was blown over, but no damage
was done to tho building.
The two-story wooden barn of John
Feeney, of Irving avenue, containing
two horses and several tons of hay
and feed was partly blown from Its
foundation by the wind. An out-kltch-en
belonging to Mr. Mangan, standing
on the same lot and fastened to the
house, was picked up like a straw and
gently deposited In an adjoining lot.
Tho smoke house In the rear of Dra
bent's meat market, on Plttston ave
nue, was also lifted up and carried to
his next door neighbor's garden.

SATURDAY'S FOOT BALL GAME.
Scranton nnd Wilkes-Barre to Bat
tle for Supremacy.
The foot ball game at Athletic park
