Last Evening.
Dr. Anna Law-Avarcl spoke before
tho Catholio Young Women's club last
evening on "Tho Hygiene of Physical
Culture."
Itev. Miles J. McMnnui Introduced
the speaker. "In all largo titles and
towns," said tho doctor, "provisions
should be mado for free public baths.
Gencinl cleanliness Is not merely a fac
tor In tho preservation of tho publlo
health, but thero Is good reason to bo
Uee that the causa of good order and
decency would likewise bo prevented
toy furnishing the publlo the means of
easily and cheaply keeping clran."
Disclosing the physiological effects
of exercise, she said: "When a muscle
contracts, the flow of blood through It
la Increased. Hence contraction of a
muscle, which consumes or converts
stored up energy, nt tho same time
(haws upon the circulation for a new
supply of food m.iteilnl to replace that
consumed. Tho nctlvlty of tho circu
lation through a muscle in action re
sults In Increased nutrition and grow th
of tho muscle.
"The scheme of ttudlc3 In our DUb
llo school system should Include physi
cal training for both sexes. This Is a
question not mciely of Individual, but
of national Importance. Weak nnd un
healthy children uro not likely to grow
up Into stiong and healthy men and
women, and tho latter aro necessary
for the perpetuity of tho nation."
Previous to Dr. Law-Avard's lecture,
Miss B. Lavello sang two selections.
The next lecture will be given Friday
night by Dr. W. P. Connors on tho
"Eye."

Tho Scranton Caledonian club, w hlch
compilsL'H among its members tho lead
ing Scotchmen, of tho city cveiy year
commemorates tho annlvcrsaiy of tno
birth of Scotland's favorite son, Rob
ert Burns, tho poet of nature and of
tho common people. The one hundred
and forty-second anniversary of his
birth was yesterday and in honor of
tho occasion neatly ono hundred of
tho members and their families gath
ered last night In Guernsey hall to
feast and sing his praises.
Tho banquet was served In tho lower
hall beginning nt S.30 o'clock. Tho
guasts sat down to two long handsome
ly decorated and heavily laden tables
and paitook of a most sumptuous re
past. Chief Thomas N. Thomson mado
a few brief opening remarks and graco
nt tho beginning and opening of tho ic
past was said by Rov. V. G. Simpson,
pastor of Asbuiy Methodist Episcopal
cliurcli.
Tho banquet was over at ubout 0.30
o'clock and the guests then repaired
urstalrs to tho concert hall, whero the
toast list wns gone through with. Miss
Lauia Meldrum opened tho programmo
with a number of Scotch airs delight
fully rendeied on the piano. Chief
Thomas X. Thomson presided and In
tioduced tho Caledonian choir, which
sang with much spirit Burn's quaint
song, "There Was a Lad Wus Bom
In Kyle," with Its "Robin was n rant
In', lantln' boy" chorus.
MEMORY OP BURNS.
The first speaker of tho evening was
Rov. W. G. Simpson, who kindly con
sented to take at tho last moment tho
toast assigned to Clansman Thomas
Russell, who was unfortunately unable
to bo present, "The Memory of Burns."
Dr. Simpson said that tho ical biog
raphy of Robert Burns had neor yet
been wiltten. There had been stories
of his life, but they had not pictured
It in all Its beauty. "Tho greatest bl
ogiaphy of Bums," said he, "Is written
In Scottish hearts nnd Scottish senti
ment. The memoty of Bums will over
bo treasured In the hearts of Scottish
sons and daughters whereer they may
bo found throughout tho world.
"No one," ho said,' "with the possible
exception of Ian Maclarcn, had ever
gone down to the inner heart of tho
Scottish poi&antiy like Burns. Burns,"
said he, "had his fallings nnd follies,
but they nie coveted by the good, the
beauty, tho elevation, the power and
the grace of his character."
Itov. Dr. Simpson was followed
by c-ChIeftaln Lindsay McMil
lan, who beautifully sang Burns'
pretty ballad, "Bonnie Muiy of Ar
gylc." A comic bong describing tho
adventures of a country youth In the
city wns next given to great laughter
by e--ClileftaIn Robert Rnnkln.
Charles Law, of Plttston, a great
ndmlrer of tho late Queen Victoria, was
next on the progrnmmo nnd responded
to the toast, "The Memoty of tho
Queen." Ho icfericd particularly to
her noblo llfo nnd expressed it as his
belief that no ono peison In all civiliza
tion was bo deserving of the tcspect
of tho world as was tho dead queen.
He said that this country owed a gieat
deal to tho queen for her action dmlng
the Civil war In standing out for the
second time In her tclgn against her
ministry, led by Loid Palmerston, who
faored precipitating England into a
war with this country.
begRcd and pleaded with tho surgeon
to be allowed a drink of whiskey. Ths
medical man, a gruff nnd fussy Indi
vidual, tcfused his permission nnd said
that a drink of liquor would mean tho
death of tho Injured man. Tho latter
heaved a deep sigh and asked tho doc
tor to lean down to him for a moment.
Tho doctor tlld bo, nnd tho Scotch
man, after breathing In for a moment
or two, looked up nnd murmured, "Ah,
doctor, hut yo'ro breath's refreshln'."
Tho choir next rendered that old
Scotch favorite, "Annlo Laurie," and
as an Introduction to John G. Mo
AskJo's toast, "Ametlcn, tho Land of
Our Adoption," Lindsay McMillcn
sang, "Tho Stnr Spangled Banner."
Mr. McAsklo spoko but a vety fow
minutes. He pointed out that this
country owed a great deal to the r.cal
nnd labor of Scotchmen. Alexander
Hamilton, a Scotchman, ho said, drew
up tho constitution of the United
States and developed tho present fi
nancial system. In evry part of this
broad country, ho said, wcro Scotch
men ever ready to shield her from
dishonor nnd to uphold tho glotlous
prlnclplo of freedom.
The evening's cntoxlalnmont was
brought to a close by tho singing of
"Auld Lang Syno" by all present. Tho
floor was then cleared for dancing and
a progrnmmo of eighteen numbers
wns gone through with, to music fur
nished by Wahler'a orchestru.

LAND OP OUR BIRTH.
Mayor James Molr, one of tlyj most
enthusiastic Scotchmen In tills city and
ono of tho most delightful raconteurs,
followed Mr. Law, and mado one of his
chaiacteilstlcally clever addresses on
tho geneial theme, "Scotland, the
Land of Our Blith." In beginning his
temarks ho refened to Queen Victoria,
who he said was "a great ruler and a
gi eater woman."
"I think I liked tho dead quesn
best," paid ho, "because she used to
consider my native county, Aberdeen,
to bo the finest spot In Scotland, so
fine that she built herself a castlo in
It and used to spend a part of her
time there cvety jenr. Balmoral Cas
tle was just over tho hill from my
homo and we used to think of the
fUiecn, not as tho queen of Groat Bilt
aln nnd Ii eland and empress of In
dia, but just as plain Mrs. Albctt, as
tho old Scotchwoman called her.
"One of tho dead queen's proudest
boasts was that tho blood of tho
Stuart taco flowed In her elns. Sho
caied not for Hanoverian ancestors,
but wns glad to trace her ancestry to
tho ScottUh tacc. They call tho now
new king Edward VII, but ho should
bo called Edward I, because lie's the
first Edwaid to tulo tho destinies of
both England nnd Scotland.
The mayor teferred to tho Intense
patriotism which Is engrafted into tho
heart of oveiy Scotch child by his
mother. "Tho mothers," said he, "nra
the teal patriots of Scotland. Tho
fatheis don't teem to care so much
nbout their natie land as they'"
Scotland, he said, had ono of tho
longest and most glorious histories ot
any nation and a history abounding
in hetolo deeds. "What man," said
he, "does not rovcio tho name of Wal
lace, who raised a little baud to fight
against tyranny und despotism, even
though ho knew they would lead his
country Into a higher civilization.
SPLENDID EXAMPLE.
"Tho most splendid examplo of tho
nobleness of tho Scotch chaiactcr is
found In tho devotion of the Highlan
ders to Prlnco Clint Ho Stuait when
a prlco was on tho latter's head. The
English government offered 30,000 for
his enptuao, and though over 500
Illghlandets knew wheto ho was hid
ing, there wasn't ono baso enough to
betray him, though the reward must
hae appeared to thorn to have been
a fabulous one."
The humor of Scotland came In for
a largo sharo ot the mayor's talk, and
he picked out a few cliolco stories from
his inexhaustible fund and told them
in his own unapproachable way. It
would, Indeed, bo hard to find, tho
country o'er, a man who can tell u
Scotch dialect story liko the mayor.
One story, In particular, mado tho hit
of tho evening.
It was tho talo of a Gordon Highlan
der who was lying dangerously
wounded in South Africa, and who
the commission says that the deep
seated hatred of tho people must ba
reckoned with. It would be of assist
ance to ho American cause if tho
Catholic chutch were to substitute
Americans priests, but tills a question
of chinch rollcy with which the com
mission has nothing to do. Sns tho
teport:
"It Is enough to say that tho political
question will be eliminated If the filars
aro not sent back."
Refctenco Is made to tho subject of
religious cxerclbes In schools, which
has since been decided In favor of tho
church, on tho basis of tho Taiibault
plan. Tho commission says:
"It is not certain that this would
completely meet the views of the
Catholic bleat chy, but it is likely it
will avoid that active hostility to a
public school system which might bo
a fotmidablc obstacle in spieadlng
education among these Catholic peo
ple." The commission states that it has
no authoilty to grant ftanchlses for
tho construction of railways and ad
vises this government to empower It
with this right, believing thajt the
construction of a number of roads,
backed by foreign capital, would en
sue Immediately.
The tepoit suys that all tho courts
ate ptifoimlng their regular functions,
though in a provisional way. Tho
commission hopes to reorganize tho
Judlclaiy early this jear, but declaies
that the establishment of a federal
court Is not within Its jutlsdlctlon.
The civil code la stated to be adequate
for the solution of commercial contro
versies nnd the tcgulatlon of nil civil
conduct.
A motion to strlko Is pending boforo
the street car men's union. It Is likely
though It wilt not bo adopted.
When tht company officials and tho
committee- tepresentlng tho employes
concluded their conference yesterday
morning,, the men were Insistent upon
tho railway company agreeing to tho
clause that none but union men
should work on the cats or In tho
barn, nnd tho company was firmly
opposed to ngreelng to anything
stronger than a clause to the effect
that union men would not bo dis
criminated against. As to tho Keller
and Seclcy cases, It was agreed by tho
company that a compromise should be
effected by the men ngreelng to tako
Keller Into tho union, whllo Seoley
was to bo given some other employ
ment, this compromlso to bo contin
gent upon the men ncceptlng tho
counter proposition of the company In
regard to the employment of union
men.
Tho rcpoit of the committee made to
the meeting of tho men, which fol
lowed tho conference, wns tho causo
of a dlsucusslon which lasted till
nearly 5 o'clock.
MOTION AMENDED.
A motion was made that the men
refuse to work till the company sign
the agreement Just as It was presented
to Gencrnl Manager Sllllman last Sat
utday. An amendment wns mado that
tho company should be given twenty
tour houts to sign, und that if the
signature was not forthcoming in that
tlma the men go on strike.
Tho committee teportod, among
other .things, that President Clark
had contended that tho men's demand
was an Illegal one; that they had no
right, under tho law, to insist that tho
company bo compelled to hlro only
union men.
This contention wns the caute of
most oC the prolonged debate. Finally
It was decided to lot tho motion to
strike go over until tho committee
could con&ult an attorney. Tho com
mittee was empowered to modify the
clause in question to conform to the
Ideas of tho attorney it should en
gage. Attorney M. r. Conry was selected
as Its legal adviser and a conference
wns had with him last night. After
the meeting one of tho committeemen
stated to a Tribune reporter that It
was tho intention to modify tho ds
mand so that the company could hire
whomever It pleased, but before tho
new man could be placed on the regu
lar list he should ba mado to join tho
union.
ANOTHER PROPOSITION.
This proposition, proUdtng It mcet3
with tho approval of tho employes' at
torney, will be submitted to President
Clark this morning at 9 o'clocK.
Another mooting of tho men w 111 tako
place tomorrow morning to hear what
President Claike has to say on tho
pending motion. The meeting will also
pass upon Kellei's application for mem
bership, which was piesentod nt yes
