OPINIONS OP
CLERGYMEN
THEY COMMEND THE TRIBUNE'S
EDUCATIONAL CONTEST.
Say That It Stimulates a Desire for
Advancement and the Opportuni
ties Offered Should Find Plenty of
Young People Eager to Grasp
ThemWhile the Object Is a Busi
ness One, It Is Eminently Prac
tical and Helpful One Clergyman
Who Has Had Experience with n
Tribune Scholarship A Detailed
List of Rewards Advantages of
Enrolling Now.
The Tribune's third Educational Con
test Is rapidly nearlng the date of its
formal opening. Only a little inoro
than three weeks are now left before
the first day. On Monday morning-,
May B, It Is houcd that a number of
zealous, ambitious young1 workers, of
both sexes, will paler upon the con
genial work of striving to win a foot
hold upon the ladder of success.
Those who enter this contest will find
the work not only dignified, but pleas
ant uiul easy, for, to paraphrase a well
known saying, nil the world loves an
ambitious young person who is eager
to rise on his or hpr own merits, and
the contestants will find hundreds only
too glad to lend a hand in helping them
to achieve their worthy desire for better
education and the success which that
means. At the same time It will test
the mettle of those who enter the race
and assure the selection of onlv the
worthiest for' the honors that are to ue
won.
How Clergymen Regard It.
Stimulated bv a desire to find out
what the opinions of the leading clergy
men of this city were In regard to the
Educational Contest, a Tribune reporter
yesterday Interviewed a number of
them, without respect to their denomi
national preferences. Of the clergymen
seen there was not one but thought that
The Tribune was doing a good thing
for the community and that Its suc
cesses in the past years in the contests
had done much to elevate the literary
aspirations of the young men and
women, and even influence some who
had not taken an active part as con
testants by reason of the example set
by those who hud. A few of the state
ments made by the clergymen are ap
pended. Heartiest Commendation.
Rev. R. F. Y. Pierce, D. D., pastor of
Penn Avenue Baptist church, spoke as
follows concerning the lOducattoual
Contest:
"My attention has been frequently
directed to the Educational Contest as
planned by the Suranton Tribune, and
If I understand the purposes of the con
test and the methods employed, I de
sire to give my heartiest commendation
to the enterprise and my best wishes to
the contestants.
"The contest proposed is not simply
a struggle for ambitious excellence in
securing a larger number of subscribers
for The Tribune than one's competitors,
but it is a struggle for a prize honor
an education,
"A most commendable feature of this
enterprise, and one which gives It
added strength In the minds of all sen
sible people, is thnt all who may secure
subscriptions to the puper are paid fop
their labors, a cash bonus on each sub
scription. Those who excel receive the
-greater reward, the scholarship in some
well-known Musical, Commercial, Nor
mal, or other educational institution.
"No more practical or praiseworthy
method could be devised by the man
agement of our dally papers to Increase
the popularity of their several journals
and enlarge their subscription lists,
than the profit-sharing and honor
bearing plan of the Educational Con
test. "The plan is mutually helpful; it is
an educational impulse to place a clean
daily paper In the homes of the people
(and our Scranton dallies arc excep
tionally free from scandals, retailed
vice, and general "yellow journalism").
It affords any enterprising and ener
getic person an opportunity to win a
chance to gain one of tho highest
earthly prizes an education.
"I congratulate Mr. Byxbee, the busi
ness nianuger of the paper, for the ex
cellence of the plan which he has de
vised; the fairness of the methods em
ployed; the valuable prizes which he
lias offered, and the business acumen
In promoting such an enterprise, I trust
there will be many young people who
will strive to secure these choice gifts."
Expensive, but Beneficial,
Rev. Charles M, OKIln, pastor of the
Elm Parle church, said:
"While I am not entirely familiar
with tho features of The Tribune's Edu
cational Contest, still I feel that It can-,
not but bo beneficial to the community
hi Inspiring its younger members with
u desire for higher education and fur
nishing them n means to gratify the
ambition. "While I cannot see how Tho
Tribune can afford to enter Into these
contests from a business standpoint,
owing to the expense Involved, yet aside
fiom that the project cannot fall to
help tho paper and the young people
who take advantage of it. The Idea has
my hearty approval and I trust that It
will be entirely successful,"
Enterprise Is Praiseworthy.
Rev, James MeLeod, D, D pastor of
the First Presbyterian church, on Wash
ington avenue, when asked if, In his
opinion, the Educational Contest con
ducted by The Tribune, were conduc
ive of good results to the community,
said:
'you may quote me as saying that I
think tho enterprise of The Tribune Is
praiseworthy, Tho fact that it can find
young people to take up this work
shows two tilings: First, that those
who take part In tho contests nre desir
ous of obtaining a higher education;
and, second, that they are willing to
devote several months of their time In
attaining that object, showing an am
bition that Is to be praised, While tho
object of The Tribune Is first a busi
ness one, yet it takes a form that Is
eminently practical and helpful, u s
a legitimate help to youth, and as such
the young men and the maidens who
take advantage of It have nothing to
lose and everything to gain, as Is shown
by the results of your two previous
contests, when a. distinct benellt was
confeired on some of the young people
of this city, The Idea has my warm
approval."
Speaks from Experience.
Rev. Harris Lewis, the rabbi of the
Renal Abraham and Jacob synagogue,
on Penn avenue, near Mulberry street,
was enthusiastic in his endorsement of
The Tribune's Educational1 Contest. In
part, he said;
"I regard tho Tribune's Educational
Contest as being of great benellt to the
young people. Last yenr my son,
Meyer, won a scholarship through your
Educational Contest In tho East
StroUdsburg Stiito Normal school, and
he Is delighted with tho school and Its
Instructors. He was homo last week
to spend the Easter holidays, and so
keen was his Interest In thevstudlcs he
Is pursuing there that ho was In haste
for the week to get over so that he
'might go back. Everything that The
Tribune promised him has been given,
and now for n. few months work he
Is assured of a thorough education.
I can commend Tho Tribune's enter
prise as one entirely worthy, and T
would not hesitate to urge any one of
the younger members of my congre
gation to take advantage of this year's
offer. 1 will willingly testify to the
beneficial nature of these contests to
any one who, Is Interested."
Simply Rewarding Industry.
Rev. Luther Hess Waring, pastor of
the Grace Lutheran Evangelical church,
corner of Penn avenue and Mulberry
street, said:
"The Tribune's Educational Contest
Is a most admirable scheme. Anything
that elevates the literary standard of
the community is to be commended, and
this, from what I know of It, assuredly
does elevate the minds and nsplrntlons
of the young people. Tho principal
feature of The Tribune's contests that
pleases mo Is that one wherein while
you are placing educational advantages
In the younger people's way It Is In no
sense an act of charity; but whatever
advantages they derive from the con
test, they have to work for. The Indus
try you stimulate Is good for them
physically as well as mentally, and you
are giving tho young people an oppor
tunity to develop their energies and
resources. It Is, In my opinion, a high
ly commendable enterprise, and one
which I wish to heartily endorse. I am
pleased to know that The Tribune has
made a success of the former contests!
and It has my hearty good wishes for
the present one."
Petersburg Should Be Represented.
Rev. John Randolph, pastor of St.
Peter's German Evangelical church, on
Ash street and Prescott avenue, said:
"I 'am gratified at tho fact that the
young men and women of this city and
surrounding towns are enabled to get a
higher education in this way. The
young people should avail themselves
of this opportunity to equip themselves
for the future. The excellent manage
ment of these contests In the past Is a
guarantee that this year's will be a
success. It Is a highly laudable en
terprise, and as such, the teachers In
our schools should co-operate with you
to make it a satisfactory test of the
ambitions of their pupils. I should
think that some of the young people of
the Petersburg section of Scranton
might try to benefit themselves through
your contest."
In No Sense a Charity.
Rev. M. L. FIror, pastor of the Cal
vary Reformed church, Monroe avenue,
corner of Gibson street, said:
"As far as I understand your Educa
tional Contest, it is a good thing, and
I believe that the young people who
participate in it will benefit thereby.
I think the idea of striving for an edu
cation Is a fine thing; much finer than
working for a mere money considera
tion. The benellt that will undoubted
ly come to those who are sent away to
school through The Tribune can, of
course, be obtained in no other way,
and were I a young man, ambitious
of obtaining a higher education, and
with no other way In my power to
gratify that ambition, I should halt the
opportunity to earn my way through
an enterprise like this. It is in no
sense a charitable enterprise, as all who
win their way must earn their way. I
regret the fact that there are so few
young persons in my church who are
of an age to take advantage of this
opportunity, and I sincerely wish that
you will have the utmost success in
your laudable undertaking."
What the Scholarships Are.
As It is possible that there are some
readers of The Tribune who do not
know what Is comprised in these offers,
the complete list of scholarships, with
their cash values, is ptintcd'thls morn
ing. A number of them provide tui
tion, board, furnished room, washtng,

vide for tuition alone. Any one wish

The Twenty-one Republican Common
Councllmen Will Run the Next
Meeting of That Branch.
It was slated yesterday that when the
common council of the city of Scranton
meets again to transact business the
twenty-one Republican members will
not allow a repetition of the opera
bouffe performance which was witness
ed on Thursday night when two chair
men and two clerks acting at the same
At the next meeting E. E. Itobathan,
the regularly elected Republican chalr
mann, will take the chair and If P. F.
Calpln starts In to act as chairman he
will be called to order. If he refuses
to submit to Chairman Robathan he
will be removed from the chairman's
platform. The same will be pursued In
regard to W. A. Lynott, who claims to
be the clerk.
As one of the Republican councllmen
put it yesterday: "The situation is just
thK We are twenty-one in number
and we don't propose to let a minority
of seventeen over-ride us and run
things as they want them."
It is intended to make Mr. Calpln
take the initiative in bringing the mat
ter to the attention of the court.
Mr. Robathan said last night that he
regretted as much as any person the
trouble of Thursday night. "It was no
fault of mine," he continued. "I called
the meeting to order at the time specifi
ed in the rules as was my duty as
chairman of the body. It is the duty
of Mr. Calpln to bring proceedings to
prove his right to the chairmanship if
he thinks he has any. It's certainly
not my duty for my election was clear
ly the only regular one that took place
last Monday."
$3,305 WAS REALIZED,
Recent Charity Ball for Benefit of St.
Joseph's Foundling Home Was
a Big Financial Success.
That the recent charity ball was a
social success was plain to everybody
who attended- it and that it was a
financial success was demonstrated last
night when It was announced at a meet
ing of the general committee which
hud the affair In charge that the sum
of $3,:i05.01 had been realized clear of
all expense.
The total receipts were J4.9G2.G0 and
the total expenses $1,475.59. All bills
were reported as having been paid and
the amount realized has already been
turned over to the sisters in charge of
St. Joseph's Foundling home. The
members of the committee feel especial
ly gratified at the small expense at
tached to the conduct of the affair and
maintain thnt no large social event has
ever been conducted in this city at such
a small cost.
The following set of resolutions were
presented last night by a special com
mittee and unanimously adopted:

Has Cured the Host Desperate
Cases and Will Assuredly
Banish Your Trouble '
While we would not play the part of
alarmists and seek to frighten people
by declaring that a large majority of
them nre already victims of kidney
dlseuses, and liable to-be hurried Into
untimely graves by them, still the very
noticeable Increase of kidney diseases
in recent years, and their virulent
power, is a subject that Is constantly
engaging the attention of the ablest
medical investigators.
Have you pain in tho snlall of the
back, of dull, dragging nature, but or
len acute and severe'.' Is the mine in
a disordered state, sometimes pnle In
color und very copious, at other times
hlgh-colorqil and scanty, with brick
sediment or with settling of mucous,
offensive and foul smelling? Have
you n general feeling of lassitude nnd
weakness? Do you recognize the fact
that you aro unable to perform the
same amount of mental or physical
work that you got through with months
ago?
Any ono of tho symptoms mentioned
point unmlstakeably to deadly kidney
disease in some form. Do not driay
until it Is too late. If you value life,
begin this very day with Palne's Celery
Compound; It Is your only hope of suc
cess and safety.. By use of this won
derful remedy, tons of thousands are
now enjoying perfect health who once
were victims of treacherous kidney dis
ease. Read carefully the testimony of
Mr. Albert Bowers, SI North 13th St.,
Newark, N. J.
"Some two years ago I suffered with
kidney disease, during which lime I
had two doctors, neither of whom could
do me any good. It was not until I
used Palne's Celery Compound that I
found relief. I had no strength, energy
or ambition, and was nervous and irri
table. I was all run down and lost
about forty pounds. I felt that the end
was near, when a friend suggested
Palne's Celery Compound, and I have
this great medicine to thank for my
restoration to health."
