"Some may ask, 'what do you mean
by Flower Mission Day'." We reply
there was an Invalid, Miss Jennie Cns
Bcday, of Louisville, Kentucky, who
wishing to do something for Jesus,
used to have dowers brought to her
to send to other sick and sad people.
When Miss Frances YVlllard was In

ment of W. C. T. tT. and appointed
Jennie Cassedy as national Hiipeiin
,tcndent. Miss Casseday carried on
- this work for about eleven years, when'
nho was called up higher. It was brr
wish that her birthday, June (, be ob
served by special services In connection
.with this work.
"In our climate, we do not always
have a sufficient supply of flowers to
observe June 0, so we have to wait a
while longer. This year the dowers
were asked for to be used Monday,
Juno 23, and wo return very sincere
thanks to all, who responded, especially
to Hon. 13. E. Hendricks and Mrs. Eva
Smith, for the generous supply, which
they so kindly donated.

The dowers, which adorned tho room
were sent out to sick ones, with tho ex
ception of one bouquet, which in be
hnlf of the union was presented to

MISS FAHEY TO BE HEARD.
The Musical Prodigy at Haydn
Evnns' Home, Tuesday Night.
Carbondnllans are assured of a rare
musical treat tomorrow evening, when
Miss Lorctta Fnhcy, of West Scranton,
will give a recital at tho homo of Prof,
Haydn Evans, 74 Laurel street.
Miss Fnhcy Is a pupil of Mr. Evans
and Is a remarkably brilliant pianist.
She gave a recital In Scranton on Frl
day night that was a marvel for one of
her years. Mr. Evans regards his pupil
as a prodigy, of whom marvelous ac
complishments may be well predicted.
W. A. Roberts, basso, of Scranton,
will assist in tho programme. Mr. Rob
erts Is no stranger to Carbondale. His
majestic voice was drst heard In this
city at the recital given at Mr. Evans'
home In July last, at the recital given
by Miss Hose Conway. Subsequently,
ho was director of music at tho Berean
Baptist church for a short time.
This recital will probably be the best
treat of tho many provided Carbon
dnllans by Mr. Evans.
LOST ON MOUNTAIN.
Moist Experience of Carbondale
Pleasure Seekers Returning from
Lake Ariel.
On Wednesday, William Mcllnlo, Rcrt
Collins, James Campbell, Dan Plel,
Roger Gilds, John Loftus and Hugh
Murphy, all of Carbondale, attended
the Knights of Columbus excursion to
Lake Ariel. Surfeited with the enjoy
ment of the occasion, about 9.20 p. m
the octette, climbed into n. Democrat
wagon and started on the homeward
journey.
They had not proceeded more than
a mile from the shores of the lake be
fore lliey were overtaken by the fierce
storm which swept this section of the
Keystone state. In tho gloom that fol
lowed, which rivalled the bunching of
seventeen stacks of black cats, the
romantic scenery of Wayne county be
came invisible, and In a few moments
even the razor backs of the faithful
steeds that dragged them homeward
were lost In the Egyptian pall which
enveloped tho earth. As all efforts to
guide the horses seemed as fruitless as
organizing a board of health in Carbon
dale, the animals were permitted to
grope their way undirected by human
hands, while the occupants of tho
wagon, with chattering teeth bowed
before tho pelting torrents that were
borne over the Salem mountains on
the wings of the stiff "southeaster."
As the time approached for the lights
of Carbondale to loom up beyond the
Last Chance smoke stack, and the jin
gle of Richard Udy's never-failing lawn
mower to be heard, as Patrolman Jim
Rell did homeward start with "Police
man Jack" and his full stomach of
soggy pie crust from the Hashcry. It
became apparent to Hughle Murphy, the
coach whip, that something was wrong.
He urged the jaded nags forward, how
ever, until dually they stopped in evid
ent despair, refusing to lift another
hoof from the mud, as did the weed-fed
mules that Eddie Neary drove on the
Honesdalo canal.
It was now that the oozing courage
of the 'scurclonlsls went out In a sud
den puff.
They were lost!
One of tho party seemed disposed to
call upon heaven for help; another tried
tho effects of his vocal organs upon
the midnight air. With the piercing
yell of the Curbstone striplings, that
would put to shame a Comanche Indian,
he implored help. To tho surprise of his
companions, his supplications were an
swered by a Milt McKlnney whisper
from the darkness, which said: "Hold
on, gol darn ye! I'll bo thcr' In cr
mlnnlt!"
Ry a flickering lantern which soon
appeared and which looked all the
world like the headlight on Ike I'.urros
old lunch wagon, tho face of a Wayne
county agriculturist beamed out of the
bushes. Enquiry of the farmer, as to
where they were at, revealed the fact
that they were near Proinpton,
celebrated as the place from whence
Constable Lafayette Smith once report
ed a hard elder mill to the Wayno
county eourt.
In less time than it takes Constable
Moran to read a warrant to a prisoner
from Peach hill, negotiations were en
tered Into for the purchase of the lan
tern. The 'light was attached to the
wagon pole and the discouraged pacers
resumed the race for their oats and
chopped feed. Tho lantern seemed to
havo a magic Influence upon tho ele
ments, tho raging storm soon subsided;
tho clouds broke away, llko tho post
odlce storm doors, dapping In a March
wind, and tho twinkling, stars peeped
forth from azure skies.
The octette journeyed hopefully on
with rising spirits, as tho twittering of
the feathered songsters hailed the ap
proach of dawn over the cast side
swamp, As tho Last Chance whistle
shrilly "piped" the hour of three, tho
travelers, wet and wearied, drew Into
Wademan's livery stablo back of Main
street; mid as one of tho party poetical
ly expresses It, they now remark:
" 'Twas a sorry sltttntlon,
And ono wo won't forgot,
When we're lost in contemplation
Of tho night wo all got wet."
Thompson Makes a Rally.
Aided by strong heart stimulants,
Thomas Thompson, tho small-pox pa
tient, sustained through yesterday the
rally ho mado Friday night, and last
night ho was considerably brighter, No
new hope, however, has been aroused
by this rally, as It is attributed to
tho effect of tho stimulants. A col
lapse Is likely to come at any minute.
Between these rallies, thero Is a flicker
ing, in which It seems life has left tho
patient,
Tho symptoms In tho case of tho
third son are being closely watched, as
thoy hayo not sufllclently developed to
say that ho has passed thu danger of
small-pox.

GAME ON THE FOURTH,
Manager Tappnn, of Crescents, Ar
ranging for Contest with Scranton
Team Disappointed Over Susque
hanna Game Other Games.
Manager Tappan, of tho Crescents, Is
endeavoring to provide Carbondnllans
with a game on tho Fourth of July,
Nothing would plenso tho cranks more
than to sec "our pets" In a contest with
some worthy team, n club that would
put up a game such as tho rooters her
abouts would appreciate. There Is no
telling, however, what success he" will
have, It was Intended to go to Sus
quehanna, but Malinger Tappan's as
suming ehargo of the Crescents took
place too late to assure this; another
team captured the date. However, ho
Is In correspondence with the strong
Scranton team, the team that won out
against tho Crescents In such n fine
contest a few weeks ago, Every In
ducement will bo mnde to bring the
crack Electric city men Carbondale
way, as It would be a prodtoblo venture
since there Is no attraction In this city
on tho Fourth.

THE DIFFERENT RELIGIONS.
Discussed by Jesuit Father in St.
Rose Church Yesterday.
A sermon that was remarkable for Its
condensation and synopses was deliv
ered at tho late muss in St. Rose church
yesterday by Rev. William J. Stanton,
a Jesuit father. Rev. Father Stanton
conducted the priests' retreat at Glen
Summit last week, where ho was heard
and appreciated by Very Rev. T. F.
Coffey, V. G who grasped the oppor
tunity of having bis flock hear the
learned nnd eloquent speaker preach.
The speaker's theme was "Is One Re
ligion as Good as Another?" He argued
that there was only ono that had the
same marks as tho ono established by
Christ, when on this earth: this re
ligion was the Catholic religion.
