THE DAY OF THANKS.
The Quiet of the Sabbath in the Pio
neer City Hcligious Observance of
the Day Sermon by Kev. Dr.
Wlialen at, Union Services.
The nation's day of thanks ww us
' L'udinisly (inlet in Ciirbondalt'. Th
1ovn hail on the air of tho fjiiblialli: in
1'not it was mot o Snbluitli-llko than
most Sundays, for the ill ill blasts of
ihu winter day Rave tho warm tiresido
of (he homo more of a charm than
ever and tho liioiiibprs of llio family
liiiRori'd tlinrii instead of facliicf tlie
fri-fzliiR cold that lliey would havi to
(.'tiilure if thuy went u-visitlng or for a
stroll. UvorythlUB: hi an Indti.slrlal
way was (inlut. Tlio mines and tin;
shops wore fiuiet and all who were at
work wore railroad men.
In the afternoon and evening there
Mere various amusements. The per
urmancesi of "Barbara Frletchie" were
Hianhod by crowded houses. In the
atternooir ero hundreds of enthu
siasts at the football same between
ihe suit winds and the Market street
Stars of Pittston. In the evening tho
Heeheii'he dance moved tjtiito an at
traction for youiiK" people. Tho font
bull faime at Scran ton and the festi
val at Arclibald took a number from
the city.
The Religious Observance.
The religious observance of the day
was most edifying. In all the churches
the congregations gathered in great
numbers to unite In the jirayers ami
songs of thanksgiving1 that went up
from grateful hearts the country over.
The principal service was at the First
l'resbytorian church, where the con
tflegatloiis of the liajitist, Jlethodist.
and I'resbyterlan chinches united In
their thanksgivings.
The response of the people was edi
fying, the auditorium being almost
tilled. Itev. (.'liarles li. I.ee, pastor of
ihe Presbyterian church, presided.
The prayer was by Kev. A. F. (Tiaffee.
Kev. W. 11. Orow udked the blessing
and the scriptural reading was by Kev,
Pr. Whalen.
The singing was exceptionally good.
H was under the direction of William
M. Dark, who proved that besides be
ing a soloist, lie can very capably di
rect a chorus of hlngers. The singing
of Jliss Mina Frank was conspicuous
among the cfl'orlK of the soloists.
The sermon which was a splendid
effort was delivered by IJr. Whalen.
II was a masterly presentation of the
leusons why this country should s-end
np fervent thanksgivings, and at Uin
same time it contained warning lessons
Hint the review of facts brought be
fore tho speaker':-- notice.
Tho services In the First Presdiytc
lian church yesterday drew Hie larg
est crowd ever yet in the church. The
llaptist, Presbyterian and Methodist
congregations atteaded. Tlie pro
gramme as given in yoMerd.iy's Tri
bune was carried out in full and giv
en in n faultless manner. Uev. II. .1.
Whaleii delivered the sermon, taking
his test from the words, "lie hath not
dealt so with any nation;" iValin 117.
"a. Ater dwelling' at length upon the
text in an hnroduUory way the speak
i r then spoke upon ihu significance of
Hie day they had all gathered to ccle-b'-i'e.
Taking suctions of Or. Whaleu's
Horuion in jiai'l, lie said: Presidem

The speaker In the following language
told of the various liberties) preachers

then divided his lecture under the fol.
lowing heads: Our national resources,
our achievement. rel!goim and cUu
iitlloitnl, our international relations,
Hui general health of tho nation, our
local Industries, im industrial condl
tlona of our valley, )o also spoke- on
tho death of President MeKlliley, as a
national calamity mid the ruins of the
Methodist church as a community loss.
Under the head of Industrial conditions
of .our valley ho said in part: For Hie
irtost part wo have, had contented
workmen and Butlsfltd employes. In
Borne (iiarter.s lahiir has overestl muted
Jtfi strength and exaggerated Its dc
jiiatids, and capital has been unwise
mid offciibiyuly domineering. The rela
tion of capital and labor are not as yet
upon n Bond ImhIb bill its much prog
ress or inari) has been tmido hero than
In other like Industrial ceiilref-. The
aetieral roiulltloti of ottr city govern
ment Is good, In general we can
claim that our city Is well governed,
while. In councils nnd boards there
have been differences of opinion. The
charge of bribery cannot he laid at the
door of one of our men. Our men may
have been stubborn In the council
chatuheiH but they huvo not offered
themselves In tho political shambles an
have many In the elites of our valley.
Trinity Church.
The ThitnkHRlvlng service held In
Trinity church was well attended. Tho
music, under the able direction or
Charles II. Doorsani. was unusually
good, the singing of Miss .Sailer, of
Scrantoa, affording great pleasure.
Tlie rector. Itev. Kollln A. Sawyer,
spoko on "The Destiny of Our Coun
try," viewing the subject iiom dlll'er
ent standpoints.
As to the Family If the marilage
relation Is regarded as a sacred obli
gation, marriage being a divine Insti
tution, not merely a civil contract, the
future Is bright with promise. If.
however, niarrluge Is dissoluble nl the
pleasure of the parlies, divorce Is made
easy, then these are ominous clouds
on the horizon.
As to Labor If the labor organlxa
tluns are Imbued with the spirit of tin.
rjoltleu Kule, all will be well. Hut If
the laboring classes allow their organ
izations to be converted Into a ma
chine which strikes at the rights of
those who are outside the roll of such
organizations, and If Ihe leaders of
tho worklngmen try to Introduce a
social order not founded on the prin
ciples of righteousness, and manifestly
unjust to certain classes In society,
then the black night of anarchy and
rulu cometh fast.
As to Capital If the capitalist deals
sclllshly with the laborer, if he regards
tho workingman as a mere ifiachine. If
he values money above man. It he op
presses the hireling in his wages, he Is
doing all that he ram to bring upon his
country the dark night of national ad
veisity. If. on tlie other hand, tho
capitalist joins hands with the labor
er, loathes him that capital is the real
friend of labor, inlluouces the working
classes to unite with the capitalist':
against, their common foe. the anar
chist, we can clearly decry the dawn
ing ni" a. belter day.
As to Politics If our cltle.- are gov
erned by men who are simply anxious
for party success and party spoils, tlie
buying- of votes and the corruption of
legislation, the outlook is very black.
Kill if our cities and states arc gov
erned by statesmen who strive to se
cure the success of certain measures,
not as a matter of partisan victory,
but because such measures will secure
the greatest good for the greatest num
ber, then truly our country becomes
a refuge to tlie oppressed of all nations.
In concluding the speaker called at
tention to the fact that statesmen and
philosophers the world over were one
in admitting that tho future prospects
of this country are brighter than those
of any other land, that we have a peer
less domain, political institutions
which have stood tin; tchi of time, and
the shock of war. Institutions which
ham proved themselves to lie worthy
and enduring', thai If any nation has
reason for assembling- in churches to
offer to (loil the sacriliee of prayer and
thanksgiving, It is the Ameiican na
tion. Thanksgiving day at St. Paul's Luth
eran church services took a successful
and pleasing com so In spite of tlto
enormous cold, tieorge Schroodor was
elected tiustee.by acclamation, in place
of Louis Cramer, for the term of three
years. The other business was con
tinued until next Sunday, alter :-'!'-vlee.

many markets In which lOnglantl has
hitherto been .supreme, the additional
export duty of two shillings a ton. duo
to England's war necessities, soon to
come Into force, proving a timely ad
vantage to American producers. Ilerr
Schulze says European mine owners
have no conception of tho Inexhaus

skillful methods of working.
Railroads in Russia.

the Husslun ministry of ways of com
munications. It appears that on Sep
tember 1-11, 11)01, the total length of
Russian railways thrown open to traf
fic amounted to o2,2T7 versts. or about
3I.S;." miles, hi addition to H..':U versts,
or 6,83t miles of secondary lines; 34,12a
versts are worked by the crown, and
lo,l!7U arc private enterprises. Finland
has 2.K7S versts, or 1.7SU miles, of rail
road under the immediate manage
ment of Iho Finnish senate, and J57
versts, or 1U5 miles, in the hands of
private companies. New lines are be
ing constructed to the length of S.-J57
versts, or 3.C0." miles; the construction
of new lines to tho amount of V..WT,
versts, or L'.OI.l miles, has already re
ceived Imperial sanction.
To these fhruros must, bo added tho
Eastern China railway, with its branch
Han between Port Arthur and Dalny. a

Coal Mining in Belgium.
The report of the inspector general of
mines for the Province of Hainault,
Helgium, shows that the gross output
of the collieries in 1000 was Iti,.';j2,ti30
tons, the highest tonnage that has yet
been attained, exceeding- by 1571,470 tons
that of 1S9S, which until then held tho
record.
The moan sale price per ton was S3.3S.
With this rise in price there was an
Increase of forty cents in tlie cost of
mining, which was 2.61 per ton last
year. The mean annual production per
miner slightly increased last year,
having been U17 tons against 013 tons
in lMt'j, while tho mean thickness of
seams worked remained the same, (10
centimeters. Thirty-four works, with !:,
7 III ovens and i',fi!is men, converted a,
331,030 tons of coal into 1,748,450 tons of
coke, showing a yield of 74 per cent.;
and the mean price of coke was g.U(i
per ton.
Sawdust Briquettes.
A method recently devised by Herr
Ileidonstamm for making briquettes
from sawdust and shavings, which has
been practically carried out in soino
largo Swedish sawmills, has given ex
cellent results, all the manipulations
being effected mechanically, so that the
expense of manufacture is reduced to a
minimum. The method consists in com
pressing the matters (with a binder, If
necessary) to such a point that they
become plastic, after which they arc
forced Into one or more carbonization
channels, the substance being constant
ly compressed In the form of a solid
and continuous stream.
The channels, partially perforated
with holes for permitting escape of the
distillation products that are formed
during the carbonization, are heated
gradually in such a manner that the
matters passing through them are. sub
jected, during the compression, to
gradually Increasing temperature, so
that they issue completely carbonized,
