Week's Social News
T 11131113 will be nn unusual profusion
ot Juno weddings this season. In
deed, for some time It appeared
that they would come at the rate ot
two a day. There aro to be at least
tierce on the 11th, and at one time It
was rather certain that two, whose
quests were to bo selected from the
FHtno circles, would take place on the
25th. The marriage of Miss Mamie
Jones, duuRhter of Mrs. Edward Jones,
of oiyphant, to Mr. Frank Wurd will
be on the 11th, as will also the wed
dings of Miss Powell to Mr. Frank
Fuller, and Miss Clrnco Btrdsnll to Mr.
Frederic Staff, of Philadelphia. The
two named last will bo at the Second
Presbyterian church at 4 o'clock and 8
o'clock, respectively, necessitating a
lightning change of decorations.
The marriage of Miss Katharine Ken
nedy to Mr. "Will Sherman, of Newport,
R. I., will be at the homo of the brldc
elect'a parents, Mr. and Mrs, W. D.
Kennedy, on the 25th, while on the fol
lowing day the wedding of Miss Janet
Dickson to Mr. Everett Tolles will at
tract nil the leading society people to
the country place ot Mr. and Mrs.
James P. Dickson, at Dnlton.
The armory was lighted Inst night so
that the decorations could be seen by
the committee. It represents truly a
gorgeous picture In which emblazoning
ot the Knights Templar Insignia, count
less arc lights and gay banners are
mingled with the bold black and white
of the order. There are many em
blematic designs done In brilliant lights,
the meaning of which is past finding
out as far as the feminine mind is con
cerned. There aro giddy crosses and
crowns; square contrivances that prob
ably mean something soulful to the
Knight Templar, gay little aprons
framed In blue and white, points of
light triangles and other things which
passeth description. In the centre is
suspended a huge bird, which the
Knights allege to bo nn eagle. It Isn't
made with electric lights, but feath
ers, and strung along merrily in even
rows aio white doves hovering over
the dancing floor. Why they have doves
Isn't explained but they are doves,
however doubtful of classification is
the big bird in the centre.
t The bunting is beautifully arranged
;li vast balloon lilto festoons along the
centre. Mr. V. II. Taylor deserves
great credit for the exquisite taste dis
played In the choice of decorations.
Fuhrman will bo busy for the time In
tervening in completing the details.
There are to bo masses of palms and
green trees and scenery from the Ly
ceum stage. The ball on Tuesday night
will be the most picturesque event in
Scranton's history.
With almost tragic swiftness two
lives in the flower of their youth were
ended three years ago, and there were
many to mourn the untimely fading of
the fairest hopes that mortal could
have. Joe Poles was one, whose death
seemed a cruel sacrifice of a life too
much needed In this world. Following
fast after came the death of Norman
McLeod. on the threshold of a noble
career, and the shadows will never lift
from the homes whose sunshine was
thus darkened. Now a third young man
ot the same purity of soul, the same
lofty alms ot character and the same
beauty of daily living has gone away
under buch circumstances ns can only
cause the friends of James It. Dickson
to turn away from the memory with a
shudder. Naturally enough today, we
who knew of the simplicity and fair
blessing of these three lives, naturally
think of each as a type of the others,
and can only feel that it Is a cruel
blow, indeed, and can only wonder how
those to whom thc were dearest can
endure the affliction.
Young people in search ot a new sen
sation arc now planning "coal parties."
They say that the fad for slumming,
going down into mines, visiting the
Rteel mills and trimming hats for rum
mage sales have all had their day. They
want something new. If the strike con

tinues It will bo an Interesting and use
ful amusement to form a party to pick
coal from not too inaccessible culm
heaps. These parties will bo equipped
with the conventional sacks, and a
horse and trup. The coal may be dis
tributed among tho needy or used for
honio consumption, it will be a very
grubby amusement, but will bo under
taken by moonlight or In the morning,
oh, so curlyl Whether or not It will
have any advantages over ping pong Is
uncertain.

IEWS OF
A WOMAN
SHE was a brilliant, and charming
woman, merry of eye, and kind of
thought, and still young. She
said decidedly: "I have an opinion
about every earthly thing. I suppose
there are those who would be glad If
I hadn't. I'm glad that I have. It Is
nice to have opinions about every
thing: it keeps you alert and alive and

der what the woman does who hasn't
opinions but must wait for some one
to make them for her and tack them
fast to the thing she calls her mind.
Dear me, how polky life must bo to
that woman.
" 'Husband thinks thus or so.' Hus
band doesn't believe In psychology, or
potatoes.' Husband snya It may rain
next week.' "
Imagine It! My opinions nrcn't al
ways very bright, neither are they par
ticularly original In character, but
they're mine. I don't make the claim
that they aro oracles, Oh, no, Just my
own Ideas, and I try and see without a
squint. But I'm willing to bo con
vinced, and I like to chungo my opin
ions real often. It's more entertain
ing. "For Instance, last week," she con
tinued, "I was glad wo didn't live In
tho volcano belt. This morning I de
cided that a land of strikes is almost
as disquieting to the mind ns a land
of craters. Night before last I thought
tho sky was very far oft and that the
rim of the moon needed rubbing up
with sapollo or something. Last night
somebody was by my side to help mo
look at tho moon, and there was no
dimness In heaven or earth. I like to
change my opinions," repented this
cheery woman, "but I don't bellevo
there's anything under tho sun that I
couldn't get up an opinion about at a
moment's notice. Yes, I know that you
will say this Is a disadvantage peculiar
to the feminine mind, but with me le
does In the place of a mild variety of
second sight. Tho first opinion that I
pounce on is apt to be rather nearer
the real truth of the matter than those
that aro coddled and combed and
curled Into a state of artificiality. As
long as I don't argue and get red of
face and noisy of tongue. I do hope
you will not mind If I have as many
opinions as there aro moments In tho
day."
People act so funny about that paper
receptacle near Sanderson's drug store.
Those who arc in the habit of tearing
up letters and scattering the pieces to
the four winds, continue rather gener
ally to do the same. It's almost a hope
less talk to reform a paper scatterer.
Ho is like a gossip, and the litter nnd
mess he makes of the streets, like the
litter and mess a gossip makes of rep
utations do not offend his tastes.
But occasionally comes along a well
meaning person well meaning persons
arc always so uncompromisingly ob
struslve who has prepared a quantity
of torn paper and he parades ostenta
tiously to the receptacle and deposits
the scraps as It they were votes. Then
he looks Importantly around like a re
plica of Jnck Horner, and causes the
bystanders to yearn earnestly to kick
him. How much ho resembles those
very correct people who go about
polntfng proudly to themselves and
saying, "Look at us. We are so very
moral, so very virtuous. Why don't
you Imitate us? We don't do this and
thus!" When they are really so un
attractive that even Temptation avoids
them.
Then comes along a school girl who
has been taught to obey those in au
thority. She sidles shyly up to the
paper receptucle and drops therein tho
Infinitesimal bits of a letter from her
plump hand. Then a thought strikes her
a horrible suspicion. She suddenly re
calls the tales of curious people who
prowl in waste baskets, as street gam
ins prowl In gutters for cigar stumps,
to piece together torn telegrams and
letters which are none of their affairs
and she makes a desperate dive Into
that paper tub In the vain effort to re
cover her dissected contribution to the
collection. She will not be happy all
day for worrying 'lest one little bit has
escaped her.
Few listeners at the Stone lecture tho
other night did not rouse with a start
at its close to feel that they had fol
lowed close behind tho calm-eyed wom
an on the platform, during her jour
neys "over hill, over dale, through
bush, through brier," during those
dreadful days of her captivity. There
are many gifts of oratory lips touched
with the blazing coals from the altar,
rich magnetism of personality, rare
jewels of words, noble thoughts sub
limely expressed, but perhaps most or
all is to have a tale of heroism to tell
and to tell It vividly, swiftly as this
woman in her quiet way told It Mon
day night, for people like to hear of
Weather i
0
bravo deeds and when tho voice that
recounts them la tho voice of a wom
an that has risen plaintively In prayer
from tho awful silence of a loathsome
captivity certainly tho tato enthralls
alt cars.
It Isn't at nil likely that Miss Stone's
dramatic recital of a half year's perils
will Inspire any other woman to want
to go to Bulgaria and get herself kid
napped, but It Is certainty a wonderful
thing to hear hor tell this story of to
day than which nothing more madly
Incredible, more marvellously thrilling
can be recounted of tho dim ages long,
long ago, In the history of wild races
and their struggles. It Is a good thing,
once In a while, for us to be stirred
from our fatuous complacency that
modern civilization Is making suchrad
ical changes In tho human hearj and
Its original savagery that the scenes of
other epochs cannot be repeated with
additional frills wrought out of an up-to-date
fabric of brutality. It Is a
rather expensive romance to thoso who
have brought this woman's life with
their, gold, but It will not bo a great
surprise to those who are watching the
course of events If tho revealmcnt of
such an atrocious deed will result In
tho utter change of such conditions In
unhappy Macedonia. Saucy Bc3S.

In Its Issue of May T:
"Miss Krceman, while making a spec

satility but rarely found In this era of
specialization. Together with her well
known ability as a concert soprano anil
teacher of voice, sho Is a most successful
conductor, and her Studio club of wo-
MISS CORDEUA FREEMAN.
men's voices Is, perhaps, tho finest or
ganization of its kind under a woman's
baton. Miss Kroeman possesses most
flattering testimonials from Georges
Sbrlglla, of Pntis, and from Royal Pro
fessor Julius Hoy. tho renowned Berlin
pedagogue. Br. Helnrlch Rclmann and
I Terr Wolff, of Herlln. and Marchnt, of
Hrussels, praise her unusual ability as a
composer, and songs, choruses, genre
music for violin and piano prove her
originality and gift of melody. Miss
Freeman's concert experience covers
America and Europe, and her repertory
comprises not only tho classics but the
best of rorcnt compositions."
The Studio club, which was organized
by Miss Krccman Ave years ago and has
since been exclusively under her direc
tion nnd Instruction, comprises many of
tho thirst voices In the city, such as Mrs.
Edith Ilockel, Mrs. G. B. Uthman, Miss
;Edith Martin, Miss Elslo Powell and
others well known to both musicians and
tho public. Tho singing ot tho club
made such an Impression upon Mr.
Francis Fischer Powers, tho famous ar
tist nnd teacher, that ho has engaged
Miss Freeman' to teach and conduct a
largo chorus, composed of his pupils, at
his Now York studios, next season. The
club has the assistance of a most charm
ing artist in Mr. Percy Hemns, bass at
St. Patrick's Cathedral, New York,
whoo beautiful voice and pleasing per
sonality have made name and fame for
him in tho metropolis. Miss Julia C. Al
len will also appear In solo work, and
a number of her pupils will play obliga

Bluckman, whoso ability ns a pianist
needs no comment, will accompany both
soloists and chorus.

tistic successes and liavo brought to the
city much eolebruted talent. This occa

reason that Miss Graco Spcncor will bo
