Commissioner General of Immigration
Fowderly writes as follow:
"Washington, Aup 7.
"I have heen away from home n Bient

It was In Oaihondalo that the vrner
nble Oaltisha A Grow made his maiden
address fiom the political hustings, and
it was hoped that he would giace the
occasion and rmko an address The
litter he will not be able to do. thouRh
it is possible that he will come. In his
letter to Secretaiy .laduln, he says:
"Your letter writing me to ,peak at

It was feared that Blshop-elect Gar

ond letter to him. he tends the follow
ing assuring answer:

GIFT FROM THE D. & H.
Superintendent Manvillo Forwards
$150 Check from President Oly
phant for Centennial Fund.
The executive committee of the
Semi-Centennial association was
much pleased yesterday to receive
from Superintendent Manville n check
'for $150, the contribution of the Dela
ware and Hudson company to the cen
tennial fund, as directed by President
Olyphnnt.
The letter containing the substan
tial offering was received by Hon.
James J. O'Neill, chairman of the ex
ecutive committee, from Superintend
ent Manville, who deserves to share
In the credit of securing such a liberal
donation from the company, the mat
ter having been left to his offices.
TO COLLECT BOND.
Poor Board's Solicitor to Proceed to
Collect Surcharges Against Ex
Director Edwin Moon Other Hat
tors of Poor Board Session.
Attorney II. C. Butler, solicitor for
the Carbondale poor district, Infoimed
the dlicctois nt their meeting Inst
night that the shortage, or surcharge,
against ex-Dlrcctor Edwin Moon not
having been paid by him or his bonds
men, he Che solicitor) would proccc.V
t.) theli ifil'ectlon on tho bond held
against Mr. Moon. "There Is no ques
tion In my mind," said Mr.Uutler In
Informing the board, "that th'" bond
will be paid, whether through legal
mpu.uiref or not. It Is n good bond,
a collrctnnlb one, and I will proceed
to recover on it."
The limit fixed by tho board for the
settlement of these surcharges has ex
pired, and this explains the solici
tors reason for taking the steps to
recover on the bond.
The meeting of the board was the
most uneventful in months,
Mr. McMillan took exception to be
ing styled the leader of one faction
of the bo;id In the fight over the
doctorshlp, as The Tribune had ro
fen'ed to his championing the cause of
Dr. Bailey. Mr. McMillan did not
deny the fact that he had been cham
pioning, ho did not intend any cen
sure for so referring to him, for he
conceded that the Tribune man heard
him do most of tho talking with Mr.
McCnbe over the doctoishlp contest,
but he said that tho other directors,
particularly Mr. Lynch, might think
that he, a new-comer, was trying to
run things In the board meetings. He
did do a great deal of talking, but It
was all done In the meeting; and he
had had no confeicnces whatever with
any of the other directors outside of
the board room. It was this explana
tion that he wanted to make, in order
to disarm any fears of Mr. Lynch that
ho (McMillan) was trying to bo su
perior though on)y a new -comer.
Mr McMillan was hyp.Tscnsttlvo on
this point, for Mr. Lynch hadn't the
least fear that he was being over
ridden, and so laughingly Informed
Mr. McMillan.
Mr. McMillan, after repeating that
the teporter had not swerved from
the laws of truth In his .statement, sat
down apparently satisfied.
The bond of John Jones, the newly
elected tax collector was referred to
the solicitor, the board to meet next
Friday to receive his report. This Is
to expedite tho collection of the tax
duplicate for this year.

CLOVER LEAF COMPANY
AND ITS PAY DAYS
Company's Employes Will Bo Paid
Weekly Heroafter, Though This
Was Not Brought About, Presi
dent Hendricks Affirms, by Any
Means but of the Company's Own
Volition Discharged Employes
Reinstated.
The Clover Leaf Manufacturing com
pany, where the wholesale discharge
of young men employed In the making
of bobbins look place on Wednesday
last because of the demand made by
them, In a petition, for a semi-monthly
pay day, Is arranging to pay Its em
ployes weekly hereafter.
The new- order of disbursing money
among tho thirty employes In the
shop will go Into effect ns soon as
the company can arrange to that ef
fect. Hon. E. E. Hendricks, president of
the company, stated to The Tribune
representative yesterday that the com
pany had In contemplation as many as
three months ago the paying of the
employes, not semi-monthly, but
of tenor, once a week. Pressure of
other matteis, however, caused It to
be put aside, though it was not lost
sight of. As to any disregard of the
law piovldlng for a semi-monthly pay,
It was not wilful on the part of the
company, Hendricks continued. The
fact of the law being on the books was
overlooked or more likely forgotten.
"If It's the law," said Mr. Hendricks,
"then It must be observed and the
company has no wish to evade, and
It will even do bettor and will pay the
men eveiy week, ns was In mind by
myself several months ago, but was
not made effective because of my be
ing pie-occupied with various other
duties." Thu deputy factory Inspec
tor, declared Mr. Hendricks, was noti
fied yesterday of the company's Inten
tion und purpose after he had called
the company's attention to the law
which had not been observed, though
unwittingly.
As indicated in The Tribune, It was
not the asking of the semi-monthly pay
day, but the way in which it was
done, that milled the temper of the
foreman. The word "tequcst" had
been etascd, It Is asserted, and In Its
place "demand" was Inserted. It was
the circumstance chiefly that brought
about the discharge first of the em
ploye who presented the petition and
of the others later.
The Tribune man was also informed
that a number of the discharged nine
teen men were already reinstated and
that as many more of the lemalndcr
that the company deemed necessary
would be taken back In the course of
a low days.
Mr. Hendricks further repudiated the
claim of a Scranton paper that Its
editorial references to the matter
hi ought about u more speedy settle
ment than was contemplated by the
company s ofllclals themselves.
THE ABINGTON ASSOCIATION.
Boran Baptist Church Arranging for
tho Annual Sessions.

Tomorrw'8 Game at Lodore.
It Is seldom that so much interest
has been aroused by any anticipated
event as that which has been created
by the proposed game of ball at Lake
Lodore tomorrow, between the Cres
cents ond Tigers, of Honesdale. The
howl that went up by the country folk
oer the mountain, because of the re
cent defeat of the "pets" of the Maple
city is still in the ears of every base
ball enthusiast in this city, and It
would affect Manager Fox very much
In the estimation of the people of this
place If by some unforseen accident he
should lose tomorrow's game. Hun
dreds of people will go over to the
lake to witness the contest, as well as
to enjoy the great concert music on
the water by the Mozart band. -

KAIFUNG.
A New Capital with an Old and
Strange History.
From the Clneaso Kn-nnl-ilcMkl.
If the empress dowager makes Kal
fung the capital of China becauso she
Is afraid to leturn to Peking, she will
not confer an unpiecedented dlgniiv
upon the former city. The province of
Honan, to which It belongs, was one
the political center of tho empiie, the
middle klngdow, whoso designation
overspread the whole, and K.ilfung It
self was the empire's i.ipital between
the pe-.us 9iX and Hi!?.
It lies nt a lltt'e distance from Yel
low river, which Is a constant inenntM
to it In times of high watei. The ex
pedlent of building dikes to protect
It was adopted many centuiles ago,
and a Chines. general who was be
leaguted there opened the tlood-gato.s,
like the Dutch, to destroy the enemy,
and thus doomed to death. It Is said,
some .iOO.ono of Kolfung's Inhabitants.
Probably the number was exaggerat
ed, or perhaps the cltv was so hurt by
the disaster that it was unable to re
cover Its former state. At any rate
It Is credited now with a population of
only IOO.ono, though it Ins remained a
provincial capital.
It has a unique Interest In that It has
been the home of the remnant of the
J wish colonics In China for the last
three centuries. These people had a
temple there, but It had disappeared
when Rev. W. A. P. Martin visited th
place In ISM. AH that remained of It
on tho spot was a tablet which record
ed the building of the synagogue In
1183 and its rebuilding in llS. An en
trance tablet marked in gilt with the
word3 "Israel's Possession" had been
remoed to a mosque, nnd thither
some of the cololsts had followed It Is
worshlppeis.
The Jews at that time numbered be
tween .(10 and 400, but stubborn as Is
the race It had .succumbed to a greater
stubbornness. Though Pir. Martin
says that the face of a young man with
whom he conversed was the face ofa
Jew he talked no language but Chinese,
and neither did nny of the other..
Hehrew was absolutely unknown to
them. Regarding th dhappearanco of
tho templo It was explained that tho
people wete all very poor and that
they had sold It piecemeal to supply
them with food.
Dr. Wlllinins, the historian of China,
makes a note of ,i visit of a delegation
fiom the colony to Peking at a some
what later date on a seal oh tor help
Ho says that It failed of its object
and adds concerning the Kaltung Jews
as a whole
It is probable that In a few years
their unity will be so destroyed In the
removal of their synagogue that they
will be quite mingled with their coun
trymen. One or two are now Buddhist
priests, others are literary graduates,
and all of them aie Ignoiant of their
peculiar rites and festivals..
The continued existence of the colony
speaks well for Chinese toleration, hut
Kalfung is not friendly to tho foreign-.
