LEAGUE IS NOT INACTIVE
Agont Wilson Tells of tho Work He
and His Mon Aro Now En
gaged In.
"It was told me today," said Asent
Wilson, of tho Municipal league, to a
Tribune reporter yesterday, "that some
Sunday puper hud a scare-head article
setting forth that tho league was in
active these days. 1 am not wont to
heed what the Sunday papers say, but
In this case I will vary my rule to wiy
that tho article In question Is decidedly
misleading.
"The league may appear to be Inac
tive, but that is because It Is Just at
present engaged In a work that must
necessarily bo done quietly. Our ef
forts now are bent on suppressing one
of the greatest evils thicatonlng tho
morals of tho city. I refer to the prac
tice of young people, and some who aro
not young, of prowling at night about
the fields adjacent to suburban resi
dences. Their conduct has become s-o
notoriously scandaloun that tho women
and children of tho neighborhood dare
not venture from their homes after
nightfall.
"Some of the lights seen by me and
my men almost surpass belief. Perrons
who do not have occasion to look Into
this matter can not be made to realize
by a word-of-mouth story' the extent to
which this thing is carried on.
"We have made a number of arrests
and have had several parties fined, but
on account of the youth of most of the
offenders we have kept the matter from
tho press. We feel now that quiet work
must give way to open operation and
hereafter, excent in extreme case?, wo
propose to make an example of these
offenders."
Mr. Wilson recited a number of Inci
dents In connection with this work,
which tended to show that the concern
of the league over this evil Is not un
warranted. One thing which Mr. Wil
son himself ran across one night was
a young couple, a boy. of twenty and a
girl of fifteen, sleeping side by ddc In
a field in Oreen Ridge at midnight.
When the agent flashed his bull'ti-cyo
lantern on them they were not dis
turbed. He had to use his club vigor
ously on the soles of their feet before
they could be roused.

SMALL POX IN
UPPER VALLEY
ONE CASE AT ARCHBALD, TWO
AT SIMPSON.
John J. Doughor Is tho Victim at
Archbald and His Uncle, John
Toolan, and a Neighbor, Mrs. Ann
Doud, Have Been Solzed by tho
Disease at Simpson Vigorous
Stops Have Beon Taken by Author
ities to Prevent tho Spread of tho
Droadod Disease
Smallpox has broken out In the upper
part of the count). There is one well
dellned case In Atchbald and two In
Simpson.
John J. Dotigher, nsslstant superin
tendent of tho Prudential Insurance
company, Is tho Archbald victim. His
uncle, John Toolan, and Mr. Toolan's
next door neighbor, Mrs. Ann Doud, are
tho two aflllcted at Simpson.
Mr. Toolan burled his wife two weeks
ago. She died of pneumonia, or such
was the belief. Mr. Doughor attended
the funeral.
Doughur la 28 years of age and tin
mtrrlcd. Ho lives with his mother, two
brothers nnd his sisters, at the foot of
No. 5 hill, near the White Oak colliery.
Ho was token 111 Juno 20, nnd was
treated by Dr. W. K. Van Doren for a
fever. The fever was abated, and on
Friday last Dougher was feeling well
enough to visit tho doctor's ofllce.
On tho occasion of the doctor's last
visit to Dougher's house he noticed
what appeared to be a measles rash on
Dougher's face. Thinking It was tho
result of the fever, ho paid little heed
to It. On Friday, when Dougher camo
to his ofllce, the doctor taw that tho
rtsli was supplanted by what seemed
to be pimples, but which, on closer ob
servation, proved to bo pox marks.
Dougher was taken home, nnd IiIh
house quarantined. Dr. Smythe, of Jcs
sup, who had a large experience in
treating smallpox during an cpldemlo
at Warrior Run, was called Into con
sultation. Ho pronounced It a case of
smallpox, and later Dr. H. V. I.ogan.
local Inspector of the state board of
health, and Dr. W. K. Allen, health
oltlcer of this city, contlrmed tho diag
nosis. DR. LEE'S ORDER.
Dr. Benjamin K. Lee. secretary of
tho state board of health, was noti
fied and he directed that all who had
come In contact with the patient
should be lniaf-'dlately vaccinated and
tho quarantine on the house vlgor
usly enforced.
Twelve persons who had been In tho
house with Dougher, most of them
relatives, have been vaccinated.
Twelve others, who visited him, In
cluding committees of fraternal socie
ties who at up with him at night, are
to be vaccinated at once lt Is also
proposed to vaccinate everybody In the
borough who has not been thus treated
recently.
Dougher's brothers nnd sisters are
with a relative In another hnusc. His
mother stays with him. She shows
symptoms of the disease, but tho doc
tors say It is In a light form.
Two ofllcers guard thf house, one In
the day time and another at night.
The Simpson cases are being treated
by Dr. Malaun, of that place. Dr.
Nlles, health oMrer of Carbondale,
Joins with him In pronouncing the
cases small pox. Tho Simpson pa
tients have been HI for about ten
days. It was not until x-esterday,
however, that tho cases were definitely
diagnosed as smallpox.
IX ADJOINING HOUSES.
Tho two patients live in adjoining
company houses near the Erie com
pany's Northwest breaker, and both
are In very poor circumstances finan
cially. The authorities there are tak
ing the usual precautions to prevent
the spread of tho disease.
Dr. J. S. Graves, health odlocr of
Jermyn, yesterday Issued the following
notice:
Owing to the fact that smallpox is prevalent
in Archbald, but tno mile distant, and that it Is
a highly contagion, and virulent di-ea-a?, it is nf
great impoitancc that all tinncce'jry coinmmiica.
Hon between the two boroughs should be at
once mpended. Mnce vaccination is the only
pieventative, all residents of Jermjn who havo
not been vaccinated should be vaccinated as toon
a tmrrible, and thne who have not been vac
cinated within four) cars kliould be re-vacUuatcd,
STILL IT CONTINUES,
Yesterday Was Warmest Day of
Summer Maximum TemperatHro
Was Reached in 07 Abov
Once again Is It tho Irksome task
of The Tribune heat chronicler to an
nounce that the warmest day of the
year has spread Its balmy Influence
over tho city and departed, leaving In
its wake a sulphurous atmosphere re
dolent of home-made brimstone.
Yesterday was a record-breaker In
the matter nf heat waves. Not con
tent with tho modest record of 01
degrees above, which were tho figures
on Friday's championship belt, tho
heat yesterday was so Intense that It
didn't t.top working until tho mercury
had been shoved up to 1)7 and Friday's
rcglsterlngs beaten by three degrees.
Ninety-seven was the maximum
temperature reported by Observer
Clarke, but central city thermometers
had him beaten to a standstill, nnd
during the greater part of the after
noon the thermometer at street cor
ners registered 100 or over. One hun
ched and two to one hundred nnd four
degrees -wero reached during the
llercest blaze.
Tho ofllclal figures show that nt
noon it was 03 above, at 2 p. m., OS
above, at 3.30 90 degrees in the shade.
At 4.30 o'clock tho 97 mark was
reached. Observer Clarke says there
is no relief In sight and that from
all present Indications the hot spell
may continue for two or three weeks,
yet. There are no present Indications
of rain to break this period of awful
heat, but still tho weather's an uncer
tain quality and a sudden storm along
the coast might have a most benign In
fluence on local atmospheric condl
t.ons. A slight breeze which blew yester
day afternoon partially lessened the
effects of the heat and undoubtedly
Ask for Information
It's a pleasure to answer any
question concerning our busi
ness. A letter from you will
reoeiva our prompt attention.
The People's Bank
prevented many cases of heat pros
tratlon. Very few of these wore re
ported. Miss Anna Stahtheber, a
prominent member of the Houth
Scranton Young "Women's Christian
association, suffered a sllffht stroke,
but fortunately with no very serious
results.
Hew Mr. IIolllnRslicd, pastor of the
Presbyterian church at Forest City,
who hns been supplying tho pulpit of
ncv. Charles I.ee In Carbondalo, was
overcome by the heat while preaching
a sermon at a funeral In Clifford yes
terday afternoon. After reaching Car
bondalo he collapsed nnln, and was
conveyed to his homo In Forest City.
FIRST DROWNING CASE.
Elght-Yoar-Old Patrick Durkln of
South Scranton the Victim,
Tatrlck V. Durkln, 8 years of age,
son of John Durkln, of 209 South
Irving avenue, was drowned while
bathing in tho Roaring brook above
the old rolling mill yesterday after
noon at 4.30 o'clock.
Ho was wading around in tho shal
low water at the head of tho dam and
got above his depth. Ho was dead be
fore the older bathers could find his
body.
The body was .carried to his home.
Coroner Roberts was notified.
The funeral will tnke place tomorrow
afternoon nt 2.30 o'clock.
ROBINSON WILL BE
RIPPED OUT OF OFFICE
Ono of tho Local Effects of tho
"Chaser" Recorder Will Re
appoint Him.
One of the immediate effects in this
city of the passage of tho "chaser" to
tho "ripper" bill will be the ripping
out of ofllco of City Treasurer !'. J.
Koblnson. Hereafter that ofllce is to
bo tilled by appointment, the recorder
having tho appointing power. Mr.
Robinson's term would not expire
until the llrst Monday of April next.
Recorder Council said yesterday that
he will appoint the present treasurer
to succeed himself.
The recorder and Delinquent Tax
Collector George W. Jenkins had a
conference yesterday about that ofllce,
to which Mr. Jenkins was appointed
by Former Recorder Molr. The pres
ent recorder Is of tho opinion that Mr.
Jenkins, appointment was not legal
and desiring to avoid complications
nnd trouble for the city, he advised
Mr. Jenkins that ho would not recog
n'ze him as the collector of delinquent
taxes until the courts have decided
that he Is entitled to the oflk-e.
Mr. Jenkins, when seen by a Tribune
man, was not prepared to say what
course he will pursue, but It is prob
able that he will begin proceedings at
an early day to have the courts pass
upon his tight to tho ofllce of delin
quent tax collector. He agrees with
the recorder that It would be a bad
thing all around if It should be shown
some time after he entered upon the
duties of his office that he had no
authority to collect taxes.

MEMORIES
OP THE PAST
THEY WERE AWAKENED AT
CELEBRATION OF T.W.O.A.
The Tenth Anniversary of the South
Scranton Branch Was Celebrated
Last Night by a Very Interesting
Entertainment Mrs. E. H. Ripple
Presided Over the Meeting and Ad
dresses Were Made by Mrs. L. M,
Gates, Miss B. 0. Krlgbaum and
Miss Florence Toraklnson.
The tenth anniversary of the South
Side branch of the Young Women's
Christian association -was celebrated
Inst night by, a very enjoyable enter
tainment and social at the rooms, 1021
Cedar avenue. The large lecture room
was handsomely decorated, American
flags and a wealth of wild flowers com
bining In an effect both striking and
very artistic.
Tho exercises were attended by n
throng of members, who crowded the
largo room and, despite the great heat,
thoroughly enjoyed the excellent pro
gramme. Mrs.' E. H. Ripple, president
of tho Young Womcn'H Christian asso
ciation, acted as presiding ofllcer of the
session, which was opened by a brisk
selection by the orchestra.
After tho singing of the hymn,
"Whole-Hearted, TrueHearted," Rev.
I. Plerengcr read a Scripture selection,
nnd Rev. J. Schmltt then offered
prayer. The next number on tho pro
gramme, us announced by Mrs. Ripple,
was an address on "Our Appeal for an
Association," by Miss Anna Stahlhcber.
This, however, could not bo given, as
Miss Stahlheber was indisposed and
unable to bo present.
Mrs. I. M. Gates, who was down on
the programme for the subject, "Our
Response to the Appeal," was then in
troduced -She InlU how thiugh ho
earnest efforts of Miss Krlgbaum and
Miss Stahlhehr, a branch of the Young
Women's Christian association hnd
been established In South Scranton ten
years ago.
Tho first headquarters were simpler
and unpretentious, but more than ef
fected their purpose, ae front the stsrt
there was the proper feeling behind tho
movement nnd It met with great en
couragement among the people of
South Scranton. Members of the cen
tral association came over dally to he
present during tho noon hour, watch
the development of tho branch associa
tion, and afford their companionship to
the young girls who were beginning to
congregate at the rooms.
Miss S. C. Krlgbaum's name was the
next on the programme, "First Steps"
being the subject olloted her. She told
Interestingly of the beginning of the
organization' branch In South Scran
ton, which was primarily established
for tho benefit of mill girls. She te
ferred to Miss Llllle Doersam, Miss
Kstelle, and others who had worked
honestly and faithfully In those early
days for the association.
Miss Florence Tomkinsnn, the first
secretary of the branch, was the next
speaker, being called upon to mako an
address upon the subject of "The Ex
periences of tho First Secretary." She
told in a most interesting manner of
various of the incidents during her
early work In South Scranton, which
had indelibly stumped themselves upon
her memory. Some of those experi
ences, she said, were very precious
ones. Miss Tomklnson told of the won
derful growth of the association, which
had gained In number until It was
found necessary to withdraw from Its
limited quarters into the spacious ones
which are now occupied.
Mrs. Ripple closed the programme. In
view of tho excessive heat, she de
clared that she would make no address,
although tho programme announced
that she wis expected to do so. The
hymn "Moment by Moment" was then
sung, after which the refreshments
committee served some delicious lemon
ade and cake, and a general time of
social pleasure was then spent by those
present.
