ELLEN STONE
IN SCRANTON
TELLS 03? HER CAPTIVITY IN
BULGARIA.
Woman Missionary, Who Was Kid
napped by Brigands and Held
Until Ransomed by Her Country
people, Delivers an Interesting
Lecture at the Lyceum Declares
Unhesitatingly That She Believes
the Turkish Government Is In
League with the Brlgauds.
Jllss nilen Stone should obtain re
dress ft oni the phologntphers who are
lesponsllile for her portraits, nnd from
the papers that have minted theui, for
In no case do these pictures give her
even faint justice, Imagine a lady with
a tine carriage, a. well-shaped heart,
with a brilliance of eye and mobility of
countenance which no photograph can
reproduce, with a charm of manner and
a richness of diction Impossible to de
scribe, and a slight Idea may bo gained
of her personality. What cannot bo
portrayed arc the ghosts of dimples
that wcio at the corners of her mouth
before the terrible strain ot mouths left
her worn and wearied, the quick llashc3
of humor nml the gentle pathos which
send varied expressions across her race.
Miss .Stone Is a. fascinating conver
sationalist and Is respon.slvc to a de
gree. Last nlghl she was a guest tit
the home of Colonel tind Mrs. K. II.
Hippie, and her cleverness of expres
sion and swift thought were a delight.
She has Just come from "Washington,
where the met the president. "Oh. but
he is an energetic man," she said,
laughingly. "He was there a moment
and then he wasn't. I never saw any
one make such haste to do things."
Miss Stone believes that Consul Dick
inson, who. It will be remembered, is a
ninghninton man, did all he could for
hey release. That he fulled was not duo
to any lack of effort on his part, but
rather the inability of the western
mind to cope with the Oriental. He
was too unfamiliar with ways that are
daik and tricks that are vain, and
found it difficult to view matters in the
necessary line of obliquity.
She unhesitatingly admits her belief
that the Turkish government is In
league with the brigands, and does not
see why Kurope hesitates in establish
ing some decent form of government
over those Christian divisions of Uul
garla which so desires them.
Miss Stone is accompanied by her
niece from lioston.
JjECTUIIK AT THE LYCEUM.
To Itev. Thomas de Clruehy is due
the credit of securing Miss Stone In
Scranton, and while it was unfortu
nate thnt this great lecture should have
taken place in the early days of the
strike, for no doubt it was affected by
'this, sjill the Lyceum was well filled.
He has been assisted by Mr. Fred C.
Hand.
Ttev. Dr. de Grucliy Introduced Miss
Stone in happily chosen words. He
was followed by Kev. Dr. Pierce, of the
Penn Avenue Haptist church, who also
made a pleasant speech of welcome to
the lady he placed in the same cate
gory -with Dorcas, Joan of Arc and
Grace Darling.
Mlssjtonegaye a minute account of
her terrible ".experiences. Beginning
with a description of the polltcal situa
tion in Uulgarla, she told of the kid
napping, tho horrible days when she
and Airs. TsIJka supposed they were to
bo killed, and of the other horrible clays
that followed, lengthening Into weary
weeks and months. The incredible
suffering, the hardships and the agony
of mind, make up a tale of the most
tragic interest.
As she described the death ot the
poor fellow whom the bilgands killed
on the day of the capture, the dra
matic power of the speaker rose to a
climax,' "Would that my ears had
been stopped that day," she said, "for
I tliihk until the day of my death will
ring therein that deatli cry as they
stabbed him, alter brutally boating
him about the head."
It was long before they know, these
poor, forlorn women, that they were
being held for ransom, but when they
heard that it was for such a large
cum. $110,000, their spirits fell again'.
The brigands wore terrible creatures
Indeed, but they did not rob their cap
tives, nor cause them to undergo In
dignities other than their privations
and weary marches through the nights
and their shut-in days, where often
they must whisper for days together.
They slept In sheep-folds, In wine cel
lars, In caves of tho earth, under the
open skies, in the bitter cold. They
were made to ride up tile steepest
mountain sides in the darkness. They
weie ili-cl.id and often Ill-fed, .
MOVED TO KINDNESS.
When the baby came to Mrs. Tsllka,
their captors were a little kinder. They
believed 'that a curse would fall upon
one who harmed the child .. or Its
mother, but when thu J.llttle creature
wns but three days old,-they, made her
ride .with It eight, and a 'half hours
over the mountains. Tliey built a box
fot her, which had a gtewsoiuo sug
gestiveaess, and in it placed the un
happy young mother, thus currying
her, while Miss Stone held the baby
lu her arms.
As Mrs. Tsllka was laid. In her nar
row bed, she looked up nt the brigands
uml said pathetically the words which
the people of that country suy over
the dead that are shut away: "The
Loid forgive her," and at this one man
broke down and wept In protest. This
was the only reeling shuwn.
The release at StruinltKa was gra
phically pictured, and then followed a
nuianlliceut series of views, giving a
vh'ld Idea of the natives, the village
life lu Uanslio, and the appearance of
thu captives with the littlu child, after
ther fieedom wusgatued,
Th.o Tsllkas aie still detained In Bul
garia, awaiting tho trial of the ridicu
lous cburge of having conspired In tho
kidnapping of the young wife and Misa
Stone.
A CLEVER PERFORMANCE.
High School Pupils Presented Oper

A number of pupils of the High school
gavo a very creditable rendition of a.
three-act operetta, entitled "A Merry
Company," In the High school audi
torium last night, Nemjy ono thou
sand persons bnw mid heartily enjoyed
the performance.
Tho operetta was rather an innocuous
affair and that It was made to "go"

panied by a party of soldier boys, who
acted In the dual capacity of protectors

F. K. Gunstcr assumed the role of
Charles, an old man, with no little skill
and sang several solos most acceptably.
The dark, Castlllan beauty of Miss
Daisy Perry, when she had doffed her
disguise us an old woman, made her
the center of attraction. John Burns
made a manly captain of the cadets,
and the Misses Isabella Felnborg and
Jennie Burns were acceptable In smaller
roles. The comedy roles were llllod by
Messrs. Allen, Dean and Evans, who
made quite a hit as three weird and
wonderful policemen. Their singing of
Eddie Foy's "tired" song, from "The
Strollers," was much appreciated.
Miss Bessie Stackhouse took tho role
of a gipsy and played two violin solos
with .exquisite feeling and a sureness
of touch remarkable In so young an
artist. A marching corps of young
women, dressed entirely in white,
evoked much applause for their drill

William Cobb Sustained a Loss of
$12,000, on Which There Was
No Insurance.
Risers, a little farming hamlet lo
cated in Wayne county, wns visited by
a tierce conflagration on Saturday
night. Shortly before 8 o'clock, llumed
were discovered issuing from the en
gine room of William Cobb's saw
mill, and in a very few minutes the
flames spread to the mill, which was
destroyed, together with a two-story
frame dwelling, widen adjoined the
mill.
Several small buildings which stood
near the mill were soon licked up by
the flames. Stored about the yard
were hundreds of thousand feet of
sawed lumber. This became ignited,
and a large amount of it fell a prey
to the angry flames. The church bell
was rung, and a general alarm given
up and down Kisser valley. The men
formed a bucket brigade, and valiantly
fought the flames. Many had their
hands and faces blistered, but their
efforts were rewarded, for some four
hundred thousand feet of sawed lum
ber, stored across a small creek, was
saved.
The entire property, including the
lumber, was the property of William
Cobb, of Kisser. The loss will foot up
nearly $12,000, with no insurance.
THE GAS FRANCHISE.
Council Committee Considered It
Xast Night Paine Don't Believe
in Following After Ancestors.
The ordinance awarding a franchise
to the Consumers' Gas company, which
was vetoed by Itecorder Connell some
few months ago, but which Is again in
councils, was considered at length last
night by tlio light and water commit
tee of the common brauch.
11. E. 1'alne insisted that a clause be
Inserted In the ordinance providing
that the company shcld agree to pay
for damages caused asphalt pavement
by the escape of gas. He said that the
Barber Asphalt company persists in
refusing to repair certain portions of
the pave on Jefferson avenue became
It Is alleged that It has been damaged
by the escape of gas and that tho
company's contract with the city does
not provide for the repair of such
damage. The amendment, lie sug
gested, was Incorporated In the ordi
nance as well 'as another, providing
that free gas bo furnished to the sev
eral (lie houses as well as to the city
hall and police stations.
Mr. I'alue oll'eied still a third amend
ment providing that for thu years
1005-00 thu company shall pay u tax at
two per cent, on Its gross receipts, and
for every year therealter a tax of live
per cent, on Its gross lecelpts.
Final action on the ordinance wart
held over until Thursday night, when
tho committee will meeti Just prior to
thu council meeting.

PREPARING FOR THE
KNIGHTS TEMPLAR
Decorators Have Begun the Task ol!
Transforming tho Buildings of
the City for the Conclave.
Yesterday tho city began to put on
its gay garb for the Knights Templar
conclave, which takes place here the
first three days of next week. The
Traders' bank, the St. Chniies and tho
Conway hotel were the first to be dec
orated. The professional decorators say
they have orders for the most extensive
and most elaborate decorations the city
has ever known.rhey will have to work
steadily from now until next Monday
morning to complete their contracts.
A number of the business houses will
do their own decorating, and it is pro
posed by them that their work shall
surpass that or the professionals. At
the last conclave, In this city, six years
ago, It will be remembered, the most
attractive decorations were those which
were designed and executed by the dry
goods and some other merchants, them
selves. The conclave committee on dec
orations has learned of several mer
chants who intend to outdo anything
that was done in the decorating line at
the former conclave.
The work of decorating the new ar
mory for Tuesday night's ball and tur
nol Is already practically complete. All
that remains to bo done is to put the
dancing platform in place and set the
greens with which it Is to be embel
lished. The Fuhrmans, on this Job,
have done the best work they ever at
tempted. Thos--e who will be fortunate
enough to get a view of the armory
Interior next Tuesday night will behold
a most enchanting sight. Grand Com
mander Thomas F. Penman, Charles D.
Sanderson, chairman of the executive
committee: Frank M. Arandling, treas
urer of the executive committee: Jutf
son B. Woolsey, chairman of the com
mittee on decorations, and Charles R.
Acker, chairman of the refreshments
committee, visited the arnitffy yester
day afternoon to inspect the decor
ations. They declared themselves as
delighted with the work.
Chairman Woolsey, of the committee
on decorations, desires it suggested to
the public that the Knights Templar
colors are black and white, and thnt
these should properly predominate. The
red passion cross and maltose cross arc
also appropriate.
Occupants of business houses nnd
residences along the line of march of
Tuesday's parade are particularly re
quested to decorate. The line of march
will bo out Mulberry to Washington, to
Pino, to Jefferson, to Spruce, to, Wash
ington, to Lackawanna, to Franklin, to
Spruce, to Washington, to Mulberry.
A unique feature of this conclave,
and one that is greatly appreciated by
business men, is that the local Knights
Templar have not called on thqm for
contributions In any manner.
A handsome souvenir programme In
the shape of a book or jzs pages, with
a specially designed illuminated cover,
printed on the finest calendered paper,
nnd Illustrated with over sixty fine
photo-grav.ures of prominent buildings
and residences in the city, will be pre
sented to every visiting Sir Knight
and lady. This programme will not
contain ono line of advertising matter,
and the expense of Its production Is
borne entirely by the local Sir Knights.
In view of the fact that business men
have not been solicited for contribu
tions or for advertisements In pro
grammes, etc., the decoration of build
ings will be more general than ever be
fore. ,As the visitors will bo from
among the most prominent men from
every section of the state. It Is hoped
that every building In the central city,
at least, will put on a holiday appear
ance. PETER M'NALLY HERE.
And, Incidentally, the Porepaugh
Sells Circus,
The Forepnugh-Sells Hrotheis big
circus arrived In this city early this
morning from Wllkes-Barre, and the
army of supers got ready to pitch the
big tents at dawn on tho Ash street
grounds.
The circus parade, which Is adver
tised as "the greatest ever," will leave
the show grounds at 10 o'clock and will
go over the principal streets in the cen
tral city, going out Washington ave
nue and returning by Wyoming,
Peter MeNully, of Boston, the press
agent of the show and the champion
long-distance swimmer of the world,
arrived In town shortly after midnight,
Just an hour or two ahead of thu circus,
Mr. MeNully is the only man who ever
Hwam the English channel. Ho has
been a. pugilist, a wrestler, a swimmer
and ii mighty successful newspaper
man In his day, and he brings an orig
inality and breezy style of his own to
his wojk which puts him in u class by
himself,
NONE ARE EXEMPTED,
Persons Selling on Streets Must Pay

As predicted In Tho Tribune last

Wormscr with an opinion lu which ho
declaics that the payment of a mer

The fight for the leading positions
in The Tribune's Educational Contest
is now becoming quite interesting. A.
J. Kellerman, who has held first place
almost since the beginning of the con
test, is now seriously thteatened with
the loss of it, only seven points separat
ing hiin from the young man in second
place, Charles Burns, of Vandjjng, of
whom escepial ''mention was'iuade in
yesterday's Tribune. Mr. "Burns crossed
the century line as the result of his
work yesterday.
Another pretty struggle is going on
for possession of third place. Two
young men, are tied for it this morn
ing, with a third one only two points
behind. William Rodriguez of Scran
ton and Herbert Thompson of Carbon
dale have equal claims to the position
this morning, but each one must work
if he wants to hold it, for Maxwell
Shepherd, of Carbondale is one of tho
most persistent workers in the list,
and a day rarely passes that he does
not make some progress.
A. J. Havenstrlte of Moscow made
a Jump from fourteenth to twelfth
place yesterday, and Charles W, Dor
sey, of Scranton, went up the list two
positions. Altogether eight contestants
brought in 03 points yesterday, of
which Charles Burns scored "3.
Vacant places still abound. A num
ber of young people who have register
ed as contestants and have received the
outfits should not delay in bringing in
the points. A number who -have ap
peared anxious to start to work have
since failed to put In an appearance.
They should remember that one point
only will give them representation in
the list nnd may later give them a
scholarship, if no others beat this In
significant number. The thirty-three
scholarships are all arranged for, and
there Is no provision made as to the
number of points a contestant must
have to win one. The thirty-three con
testants who have the highest number
of points on the last day will get tho
scholarships.
The entry list will remain open for
some time longer, If you have not
registered your name as a contestant
you should study up the reasons why
you should. They will be found on the

Disease Lays Its Heavy Hand
on Kings, Princes, Presi
dents, the Noble and
Wealthy, as Well as Those of
Low Estate.
Paine's Celery Compound
Is the Great Restorer of Health
for the Ruler and His
i
Humblest Subject.
Sickness, disease and suffering re
spect neither ruler nor subject. Tho
noted and high born have their trials
and physical sufferings like those In
humbler stations. Social standing and
wealth cannot bar the progress of dis
ease when tho common rules of health
are violated.
Impure blood and weak nerves are
responsible for ninny of the common
diseases of life. The experienced phy
sician will tell you thnt men and worn"
en with pure, clear coursing blood and
well braced nerves, can never' become
victims of rheumatism, neuralgia, liv
er 'troubles, debility, headaches, or
sleeplessness.
It follows, therefore, that sufferers
from any Kit the ailments referred to,
should at once take proper measures
to cleanse the blood and feed tho weak
nervous system with proper nourish
ment. For tho happy accomplishment of this
important work, Paine's Celery Com
pound is the only safe agent, tho one
great speciile, the only security against
deadly disease and death. During
these spring days, Paine's Celery Com
pound guarantees a perfect regularity
of the bowels, healthy appetite, sound
sleep, good digestion, pure blood,
strong nerves, and clear brain, all of
which mean full and robust health.
Mr. E, M. Sutton, ex-mayor of Bur
lington, Vt., one of tho strongest and
heartiest advocates of Paine's Celery
Compound In the United States, tells
us In the following letter how he keeps
well under all circumstances: he says:
"People have often asked me how I
managed to keep so well, for although
out iij nearly all kinds of weather and
traveling considerably, I have no
aches or sickness. My one answer has
been that Instead of waiting until I
am sick In hed and forced to stop work
for awhile, whenever I feel out-of-sorts
the least bit, I take Paine's Cel
ery Compound, which keeps me well
nnd strong. It Is a great deal hotter
In my opinion to take a medicine that
keeps one well, rather than to wait for
sickness, And then hunt around for a
medicine or a doctor to cure the sick
ness. I have been a Iiearty advocate
of Palne's'JCelery Compound since It
was first 'ifiade, a great many years
ago, and have yet to hear of a case in
which it fails to fulfil its promises."
