LIEDERKRANZCHRISTMAS
Exercises for Little Ones Held
Yesterday. They Were Present-
wlth Qifts of Various Kinds.
There Is no noclcty In these parts
that has a more enjoyable, wholesome
time than the Scranton Llederkranz
nml on no occasion does Its members
have more enjoyment than they do at
their annual Christmas restlvut which,
this year, whb celebrated yesterday.
The Lloderkrun. Is one, big hnppy
family. Orandfnther. grandmother,
father, mother, son anil daughter, all
belong to it, They have their singing
festivals, banquets, dances, theatricals
and various other like forms of nmusu
nieliK Once a year the children, who
are yet too young to participate In the
amusements of the grown-up folks, are
given a day nil for themselves. The
society's hall Is turned over to their
entertainment and all the members of
the society turn In to help entertain
them.
YesUiilny the festivities began at "
o'clock and continued until 10 o'clock
at night. The little ones and the com
mittee of arrangements had the Moor.
The older folks looked In from the gal
lery or the seats about the1lde of the
hall. When the children were all as
sembled they were formed In twos and
marched past :i member of the com
mittee who gave each of them four
numbered tickets, distributed indis
criminately. They were marshaled in
front of the stage and after a sulllcient
wait to properly whet their anxiety the
curtain was quickly raised.
What the rise of the curtain dis
closed evoked a charm of Joyous ex
clamations that in itself repaid a hun
dred fold the trouble and expense ot
the committee.
In the centre of the stage was a huge
Christinas tree gorgeously bedecked
with bright ornaments and illuminated
with a niyriod of candles and varl-col-ored
Incandescent bulbs. To the right
and left and in the rear were erected
fancy stands piled high with dolls and
other toys of every description. The
rest of the stage was piled high with
express wagons, doll carriages, writing
desks, baby-chairs, black-boards and
the bulkier kind of playthings. Fruit,
candy nuts and cakes were stacked In
the wings.
An hour and a half was occupied in
distributing the presents. Every child
had his or her arms full when the dis
tribution was at an end. For two hours
the children played about wheeling the
wagons, pushing the carriages, keeping
house, beating drums, blowing horns
and all the time munching the good
tilings.
Then the older folks were given some
entertainment. The' singing section ren
dered a number of selections, various
of the vocal and Instrumental music
ians gave solos. Bauer's orchestra con
tributed numbers and at fi oclock all
sat down to a bountiful supper.
After this there was more music and
appropriate social diversions and at 10
o'clock when the festival ended, there
was a question as to who had enjoyed
It the more, the entertainers or the
entertained.
The committee in charge of the affair
consisted of Joseph W. Keller, Theo.
dore Hemberger, .1. Alt. .1. D. Ferbef,
ltobert Schubert ami Nathan Jacob.
Prof. Hemberger, Louis J. Slebecker,
Fird J. AYIdmayer and Miss A'iolet
Fahrenholt were among the musicians
who contributed to the enjoyment.

POLICE MUST
DO THEIR DUTY
IF THEY DON'T THERE WILL BE
A NEW POLICE FORCE.
Recorder Connell Addressed the
Members of the Force in the City
Hall on Saturday and Told Them
That Complaints Have Been
Lodged Against Twenty-seven of
Them for Failing to Do Their
Duty Lona Day Has Been Made
Acting Superintendent of Police.
Recorder W. L. Connell administered
to the members of the police force on
Saturday afternoon what was prob
ably the severest rcpiimuml they ever
received. He served an ultimatum
upon them that IT conditions are not
improved on or before January lii he
will undertake lo Improve them him
self by removing uvvvy member of the
force, If necessary.
The recorder charged twenty-seven
of the forty-four members of the force
with being derelict In their duty and
seriously accused one of the police

lieutenants, without mentioning his
name, however. He also publicly com
mended Patrolman Tom Jones for the
plucky fight he made about six weeks
ago during an Incipient riot in South
Scranton.
DAY TJIK SFPEUINTEXDEXT.
The men were assembled in the re
corder's main olllce In the municipal
building at :i o'clock and after the re
corder's address. Director of Public
Safety F. L. Wormser announced the
appointment of Detective Lona Day as
acting superintendent of police to suc
ceed Frank Hobling, Jr., removed, The
order sets foith that Detective Day will
serve "until further orders."
Uecorder Connell was Introduced by
Director Wormser and he hadn't said
more than two dozen words before
everybody In the room realized that la
wns intensely In earnest and that he
meant every word he said. He spoke
as follows:
"About four or five months ago, at
the request of Director Wormsor, I
spoke to you men and told you that I
proposed to hold every otllcer on the
force individually responsible for the
conditions of his beat. I told you, how
ever, that If a patrolman reported any
wrong condition to his superior odloer
and that if that olllcer took no cogni
zance of it the patrolman's respon
sibility ceased.
"I thought at that time that 1 spoke
seriously and that I made you believe
what I said. A'et what do 1 find now?
1 llnd here on my desk the records of
twenty-seven of the members of this
police force who have been derelict in
their duty. I llnd charges against
many of them sutllciently serious to
warrant their instant dismissal from
the force.
"What are the conditions confronting
us today as the result of neglect of
duty on the part of the members of this
police force?
DON'T DO THEIIt Dl'TY.
"Drunken brawlers hold full sway on
the streets of our city within a hun
dred feet of police olllcers who nre so
Indifferent, so lazy, or so careless of
their oaths of olllce that they allow
these law breakers lo continue their
disorderly reign; street cars are as
sailed and citizens' lives endangered
and when a citizen goes to a policeman
and points out the man who threw the
stone, the guardian of the peace smiles
and walks away.
"Incipient riots are of frequent occur
rence and the police force Is apparent
ly unable to quell them. Lewd women
travel our streets more frequently than
when I took the olllce of recorder,
flambllng houses are running with the
full knowledge of the olllcer on the
beat.
"In a certain precinct In this city
there exists one of the most dauiuahlo
Institutions In this country. The exis
tence of this place Is, I believe, known
to the olllcer on the heat and to his
superior ollicer and the eyes of tlio
administration are on these two men.
The recorder was very much humiliat
ed when a prisoner called his attention
to this place and charged him with be
ing reftponslble for Its existence, A
pretty thing, men, that the police olll
cers profess to know nothing about this
place and that their negligence of duty
Is criticized by a prisoner.

COURSEN'S
'"1 said to you five months ago that
you arc the arm of the administration
and that If you stood up for the light,
the administration would stand up for
you In nil things, and 1 repeat that now.
As long us you do your duty and do
honor to the udmlnlstratlou there will
he no word of reproach uttered,
"There Is li particular precinct In this
city where women nre openly Insulted
on the streets and where decent wom
en nre afraid In venture out at night
without an escort. Everything Is quiet,
sweet imd lovely according to the lieu
tenant In charge, but that lieutenant
has the eyes of this administration
upon htm.
STitKKTS Ml'ST HE SAFE.
"I propose as long as t am recorder
to niiike the streets of this city so sure
that any citizen or his wife can walk
them without fear of Insult and I If
can't obtain such a result through the
assistance of you men I'll get a new
police force.
"I know that there are men on this
police force whose Integrity and abil
ity nre seriously questioned. I know
on olllcer who had the respect of every
citizen when t was mayor and who
earned my warmest approval at that
time, Today, much to my shame, there
Is a serious charge lodged against this
olllcer, a charge sulllcient to wnrrant
his removal.
"Am I going to stand for this sort of
thing'.' No, I am not. r believe that
It is possible with a united effort to
bring this department up to its former
standard of elllcleiiey and for that rea
son r urn not going to be severe. I
realize the seriousness nf removing
men who have spent their best yenrs
on the force mid sending them to seek
employment elsewhere.
"Hut I say to you men who have been
derelict In your duly and who have
winked your eyes at lawlessness and
crime that If there Is not a radical
change apparent on or before January
15, If the department Is not restored
to its former standard of ellieleney by
that time, 1 will remove every member
of this force, If It Is necessary, and I
will see what can be done with new
material.
"I said to you before and I say to
you now that It Is not for you to rea
son why, but to do or die. Vou are to
have no personal opinions. You are to
do your duty as you see It without
question and with strict Impartiality.
If you tin Ibis the administration
stands back of you as It stands back
of Olllcer Tom Jones whom 1 wish to
publicly commend for hanging on to
his man like glim death until assist
ance came. That's the kind of police
men we want. Men who will get their
man and then hang on to him, I want
a man when be makes an arrest to
lodge Ills prisoner In the station house.
The man who cannot do this has no
place on this force.
"1 want you to weigh .well what T
have said. This is positively the last
time that I will bring the polire force
together to admonish. The next lime I
will act."

charity of the people of this city:
"My duties take inn about very much
among the people, not only In the Im

proofs which 1 have witnessed of the
Christian charity of the people of
Scranton,
"I have gone Into homes of chronic

that some quiet, unobtrusive person
had been there before me and In uu un
ostentatious manner had ministered to
the necessities of the indigent.
"I have gone Ihto the homes upon
which sudden calamity has settled down
like u thick, dark pall, and I have found

they spoke of the gentle, beneficent
conduct of some good christian person,

BULLET WOUND
PROVED FATAL
HARRY FREDERICK DIED YES
TERDAY AFTERNOON.
Young Man Who Wno Shot in a Dls
ordejrly House on Providence Road,
Last Thursday Mottling, Suc
cumbed to Peritonitis at the Scran
ton Private HospitalHis Murder
er Is an Unknown Italian and the
Police Have Very Little Hope of
Apprehending Him. i
Hurry Frederick, who was shot In a
disorderly house on Providence road by
an unknown Italian, early last Thurs
day morning, died yesterday afternoon
at 4 o'clock at the Scranton Private
hospital,
The bullet entered Frederick's groin
and passed almost completely through
his body, piercing the Intestines and
the liver. Peritonitis set In on Satur
day mid the physicians were unable to
save the Injured man's life.
Coroner Roberts performed an au
topsy last night and decided to bold an
Inquest, but has not fixed the date. The
remains of the dead man were later re
moved to his home on Ulnlr avenue.
The police have no clue to the Iden
tity of the man who did the shooting,
and the chances of bis ever being ap
prehended are considered to be very
slight.
Frederick was In a disorderly resort
kept by Mrs. Alice AYIlllams, early last
Thursday morning, when two Italians
sought entrance at the front door. Ono
of the inmates of the house opened the
door a little, but when she saw who
had knocked she refused admittance to
the two men. '
The latter wished In the door and
were brushing past the woman when
Frederick came out from another room
at the rear of the hall and threw a beer
bottle, which struck one of the Italians.
The stricken man drew1 a revolver and
fired three shots, the last or which en
tered Frederick's body. They then ran
out of the house and down the street.
DWVER THE VICTOR.
Secured Two Straight Falls from
Gideon Perry, at the Scranton Bi
cycle Club, Saturday Night.
Prof. M. J. Dwyer once more demon
strated his skill as a wrestler, Satur
day night, by throwing C.ldeon Perry,
the Canadian wrestler, twice In succes
sion at the Scranton Bicycle club, In
the presence of over 1100 persons.
The two men stepped on the mat
shortly after lo o'clock, and when they
had thrown aside their dressing robes,
appeared to the casual observer to be
very unevenly mulched. Perry, who
stands feet ! inches tall, weighed In
at 100 pounds, while Dwyer, who is six
Inches shorter, weighed about lliO. Those
who had seen Dwyer wrestle here last
winter and who knew of the strength
resting in his phenomenally broad
shoulders ami well-develoiied biceps,
realized that Perry hud a pretty big
job on bis hands.
Perry was the aggressor at the stmt
and kept Dwyer on the defensive for
upwards of fifteen minutes. Try as hard
as he could, however, he could not se
cure a fall. Dwyer's remarkable quick
ness enabled him to wriggle out of
many a dangerous hold, mid when he
got his second wind lie started in on
the offensive himself.
Dwyer finally got Perry on his side
and secured a half-nelson. He twisted
his right leg around the big man's anil
began to force him over on his back.
Perry apparently realized that the
game was up, but he died hard. The
muscles mi Dwyer's back stood out like
knotted cords as he slowly, but surely,
forced Perry inch by Inch over on his
back. It took him about four minutes
to do so, and when the full hud been
secured he was loudly applauded. The
time of the fall was .'!1 minutes, 10 sec
onds. After a ten minutes' Intermission the
two men went at it again, and this time
Dwyer was the aggressor all through.
He sailed 111 from the start and never
gave Perry a moment's rest. The latter
was game, however, and within ten
minutes had worked himself out of
three holds In an almost miraculous
muuiicr. Dwyer llnnlly secured another
half-nelson and bore the big man down
a second time.
The match was for a side bet of $100
and 7."i per cent, of the gate receipts.
The other -'3 per cent, of the gate re
ceipts went to the loser. Hugh Keeniin
acted as referee, while Smith Gorman
