Had to Oo Into the Hands of a
Receiver Mr. Stevens Has Held
Many Positions of Honor and
Trust in This City and County,
and Will Be Missed.

most niotnliieiit citizens today, when
Former SlieilfT Asa II. Stevens, of Ca
poiiNij avenue, takes ills departure for
HvruiHiN", N. Y.. where lie Intends to
make his homo hi the future.
Air. Stevens litis; been connected with
tho (nihiBtrlnl development of this
city since 1S0.1 mid during that time
has held many important positions of
public; trust with honor to himself. Ho
has been engaged In n. variety of
commercial and Industrial pursuits
and his business life has been nn open
hook for nil to road. Prominent In
A. B. SThVJ-.X's.
Oram) Army and Masonic circles, he
has an extremely wide circle of ac
quaintances who admire his many
splendid traits of character, his ster
ling: honesty and, perhaps most of all,
his line good-fellowship.
These are all loath to part with him
and sincerely hope that ho may find
a. chance to return once more to the
city which has been his home for forty
years.
ItK VOLUTION AIIY STOCK.
Air. Stevens was born In Broome
con ny, N. Y., near Blnghamton, in
1i,'M, and was a direct descendant of
Captain Samuel Stevens, who had
command of a company under General
Alarlon In the Revolutionary war. Ho
came to what is now this county in
IS06, and settled in Abinglon township,
here he engaged In tho nimble cut
tins' business for live years. In 1S63
ho came to Scranton and started In
the marble cutting business at the cor
ner of Lackawanna and Penn avenues.
In 1861. he enlisted In Company C,
Two Hundred and Third Pennsylvania
Infantry, and was made first lieutenant
shortly al'terwaids, serving with hist
company, until 1SU5, when he was hon
orably discharged. Hu tuis at Peters
burg and took part In the skirmishes
from Deep Bottom to Chapln's farm,
In front of Itichmond. the second bat
tle of Fair Oaks, and both expeditions
to Fort Fisher. At the captuie of the
fort, the captain and half of the com
pany fell, and Lieutenant Stevens took
command of the remaining members,
and fought them gallantly. He re
ceived honorable mention from the
officers of his regiment for his services
a i. Fort Fisher and Cape Fear river,
and was the proud recipient of compli
mentary resolutions from his company.
He was recommepded for major In a
regiment of .colored troops, but de
clined to leave his old comrades.
ENGAGED IN BUSINESS.
He again engaged in the marblo busi
ness ujion his return from -the war, but
gave It up lip 1869, when he was elected
marshal of the mayor's court, on tho
Republican ticket. He served In this
pluco with credit to himself for three
years. When Lackawanna county was
carved out of Luzerne, Air. Stevens
was the first sheriff, having been ap
pointed by the governor. So success
ful was ho dtulng the year and more
that ho served, that he secured the
llepubliciin nomination and was
elected to the otllce for a term of three
years at the next election.
Just prior to his appointment ns
sheriff, Scranton was Incorporated as
a city, and Air. Stevens was a member
of the first select council and board ot
commissioners. He was also burgess
of the borough of Hyde Park for a
time, having been elected to wind up
tho Indebtedness of the borough boforo
It became nn Integral part of the new
city. After his term as sheriff, Air. Ste
vens became manager and treasurer of
the Bridge Coal company, a position
which ho held for seventeen years, or
untjl till tlio coal In the severnl mines
had been exhausted. For soveral years
following ho was engagedNn merchan
dising at tho corner of West Lacka
wanna avenuo and Seventh street. In
I8SD he ncaulred an Interest In sonui
coul lands in Went PIttston and built
tho Slovens colliery, of willed ho was
general manager until 1S92,
CALLED TO SYRACUSE.
In 1SSM, ho was ninde general mana
ger of tho Economy Light. Heat and
Power company and continued In this
capacity until 1896, when he resigned,
retaining nn Interest in the corpora
tion still, however. Air. Stevens' ex
perience in this particular line of work
led to his latest apolutme'nt, that of
general manager of tho Alunlclpal
Steam Heating company, of Syracuse.
Tills corporation wns recently sent
Into tho luuuls of a receiver, because
of bad management, and a number of
local capitalists took up the stock,

GREAT ARTISTS AT -
THE HOME CONCERT
lflrlfllliiitiinlltiiiiiiiiiii
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
1
MADAME LILLIAN BLAUVELT.
(From Her Latest Photograph.)
In selecting the artists who will ap
pear at the armory Thursday night, at
the Home for the Friendless concert,
great discrimination was used; for
where could a finer combination of art
ists be secured than Aladame Lillian
Blauvelt, soprano; Ben D.tvles, tenor,
and Fritz Krelsler, violinist? Cbnyern-,
ing Aludnme Blauvelt's recent triumph
In Boston, one of the papers of that
city said:
"Aladame Lillian Blnuvftlt, the solo
ist, with her fiute-Uke votceVnd charm
ing peisonality, like a rose lit the midst
of the black-coated phalanx, made a
very favorable impression on those who
heard her for the first time, and those
who knew her gifts. of yote were again
confirmed in their admiration for her
worthy use of that beautiful musical
instrument, her voice. Her fidelity to
pitch, the pearl-like purity of her tones,
the artistic certainty of her trills, her
arpeggios and her musical lllghts wen
matters to delight tbe lover of gcod
vocal uork.
"Her 'Sweet Bird,' 1'iom Handel's
L'AUegio II Penseroso, with flute obll
gato by Murquerre, was ono of the ex-fiui-slte
features of the evening, tho
fiute notes of Handel's bird-like music,
tlie flute-like voice of Alme. Blauvelt's
soprano, and tbe pan-pipings or the in
strument In obligato blending delight
fully. The Sicilian Vespers aiin, Verdi,
was also well suited to her voice. De
spite the thunderous applause, tho
positively no encores rule of the Boston
musical cult was rigidly enforced. The
concert was one of the most enjoyable
by reason of the, well selected pro
gramme and the charm of the soloist,
that has been given by the Boston
Symphony orchestra In this vicinity."
The decoration recently confetictl
upon her by the Royal Academy of St.
Cecilia of Rome, a medallion, having on
its front the figure of St. Cecilia In pro
file In enamel and on the back the seal
of the society. It hangs from a bow of
specially made blue ribbon bordered
with gold. This decoration Is never
possessed by over fifty persons at any
one time and twenty-live of tho hold
ers are always Italians. The Order ot
St. Cecilia, which confers the medal,
was established in 1585.
Charles H. Doersam, formetly of this
city, but now a musical student In New
York-, writes as follows to John T. Wnt
klns concerning Fritz Krelsler:
Dear 1'ilciid WalkiiiA: 1 bate hid the good

The Eight-Hour Holiday Will Be
Observed for the First Time in
the Hard Coal Region.
The mine workers of the three an
thracite districts will today inaugur
ate what they term the eight-hour
holiday and remain away from the
mines to make It effective throughout
the anthracite coal regions.
At the 'national convention of the
United Allno Workers of America, held
in 1S!)S, this eight-hour holiday move
ment was first proposed and adopted,
and since then has been observed in
the bituminous regions.
At tho convention of the three an
thracite districts, held recently at
Sliamokin, the agreement was ratified
and a resolution passed making the
proposition effective today. It is ex
pected that the holiday will be gen
erally observed by all locals of the
mine workers In the three districts,
us well as all others in the bituminous
regions.
President T. D. Nlcholls stated last
night that orders to this effect had
been issued and the day will be ob
served as a general holiday In com
memoration of the eight-hour move
ment. Today was also designated ns the
time for the Inauguration of tho
three-dny-aweek plan adopted by the
Sliamokin convention, but through the
intervention of the Civic Federation,
and tho agreement to postpone action
for a period of thirty days, the miners
will continue work as usual, with the
exception of today.

TI1E GREAT SPRING MEDICINE
MR, ALFRED Br OWN,
A Prominent and Popular Citizen Say.it
"After the Ue of Paine' Celery Compound 1
Am Now In the Best of Health.'
The greatest of modern physlclnns,
Prof. Edward E. Phelpp, M. D., LL.D.,
after years of long practice and close
scientific study, gave to suffering, and
diseased men and womeivhls marvel
ous, llfe-glvlng prescription, with the
conviction and positive knowledge that
It had peculiar virtues and ample pow
ers to cure, after the terrible verdict
"incurable" was uttered by .the medi
cal practitioner.
Thousands of the strongest testi
monials from the best known and most
reliable men and women of our country
fully sustain the claims made by Dr.
Phelps regarding his Incomparable
Palne's Celery Comoound.
One of the most convincing proofs
furnished, comes recently from n gentle
man widely known In the capital city
of the Dominion of Canada. We refer
to Mr. Alfred Brown, 91 O'Connor St.;
Ottawa, Ont. Mr. Brown's letter fully
demonstrates the fact that the great
est sufferers may cast off his or her
burden of disease and become well,
strong, and happy. It proves, too, that
the great medicine maintains more
firmly than ever before its unrivaled
place In the estimation of people ot
wealth and social standing, as well is
with the masses. Mr. Brown savs:
"I acknowledge with thankfulness and
pleasure the fact that I have been cured
of a very painful illness of eight years'
standing by use ot Paine's Celery Com
pound. I had, during the years of my
illness, tried almost all the advertised
medicines without, deriving any good
results. I was also treated bv several'
of the best doctors of this city, hoplngi
to find that one of them, at least, would
understand my'cuse.
"I was getting worse, and was told I
was Incurable. I was Indeed in a critl-'
cal condition. I could not go from the
house alone, as I was liable to sudden
collapse. I tried hospital treatment, but
no relief or good results came- to me. f
could not sleen: anything that I ate'
Increased my agonies; I was extreirieljH
weak, restless;, tired, and i despondent;
was obliged to walk about with my
hands pressed firmly Into my left side
to ease my pains; my feet and hands
were cold continually; had Inclination
to vomit, had profuse, cold sweats,
quick breathing, nnd would be racked
with pain for hours at a time.
"After tho regular use of Palne's Cel
ery Compound for a time, I am now in
tho best of health, have good appetlte(
and can use any kind of food. Thank
God I am my old self once more, all
through the use of Palne's Celery Com
aound." RKWARP of hi'itationi of Diamond Dye.
