and exhaustive report untl so Impressed

suggestion of Chairman Collins, n mo
tion by Mr, Wltitlleld, seconded by
Hairy Musters, was adopted, directing

The minor business of council In
cluded the payment of a number of
bills unit the granting of tho monthly
roiiulsltloiis. of tho Columbia, and Mit
chell Hose companion.
Ccunellinan Hurry Masters asked the
chair for Information its to what au
thority lite fire chief had to direct the
purchase nf hose companies' supplies
in n particular store. He hail been
asked, Mr. Masters said, by several
ho.'ienten lately, us to this. The chair
man replied that he had no knowledge
of the Hie chief's authority or power,
:,luit sttppused the pltrchasi'A should be

M. E. CHURCH ORGAN.
It Will Be One of the Finest Instru
ments in This Section.
The First .Methodist congregation,
which will have as line a house of wor
ship as can be found among the Meth
odist churches In this section, will like
wise boast of an organ Unit will be
unequalled In tills city, and without an
equal in Scranlon, save Klin J'ark
church hi Unit city.
While a technical description of the
organ would be better appreciated after
It lias been used for the first lime, a
comprehensive idea of Its properties or
parts may be timely. The most con
spicuous feature Is the number of stops,
which, generally speaking. Is the criter
ion by which an organ is judged. There
will he a total of forty-three stops, dis
tributed as follows: Great organ, 7;
speaking stops, 7; small organ, 11: ped
al, 4: mechanical registers. 7; pedals,
11. The number of pipes In the organ
will be l.iifiO. which will produce a
mighty volume of tone.
As compared with the organ that was
destroyed the new Instrument will lie
almost double In power. An idea of its
increased superiority can be gained
when It is mentioned that the old organ
was regarded as perhaps the best that
was In the ity. j. P.. Aloler. of Hug
gurst'own. 11(1.. Is the 'contractor.
Tlie plans of the chinch will be ready
for contractors to bid on within a week.
The illness of Architect l.angley, . of

ing ready Ibis week.
