a complete clearance of the season's stock at
prices that compel buying as an investment,
if nothing more. Fashions do not change

FIRST MASS OF THE BEV. JOHN
LYNOTT.
It -Was Celebrated at 10.30 Tester
day In Holy Rosary Church Before
a Large Congregation Sermon
Was Freached by Rev. Dr. Whalen
of Baltimore,,. Who Was One of
Father tynott'a Instructors Miss
Irene Williams of Edna Avenue In
jured by a Blank Cartridge.
Rev. John Lynott, of West Market
street, recently ordained, celebrated his
first mass, before a largo congregation
In the Holy Rosary church, yesterday
morning nt 10.30 o'clock.
Father Lynott was celebrant of the
mass: deacon, Rev. Peter Lynott, af
Wilkcs-Barrp; sub-deacon, Rev. John J.
Holmes: master of ceremonies, Hev. J.
V. Moylan: assistant priest, Rev. N. J.
MeManus; assistant master of cere
monies, Thomas White; acolytes, John
Burke and William Healy. In the
panetunry were Rev. Dr. Whalen, of
Baltimore; Rev. J. A. O'Reilly, Rev. D.
J. Bustln and Rev. Lalor McLaughlin,
of the cathedral; Rev. W. P. O'Doif
noll, of Holy Cross, and Rev. Joseph
Murphy, of Baltimore.
Bottmnn's mass In F was rendered by
the Holy Rosary choir, under the direc
tion of Miss Llbblc Neary. The solo
parts were sustained by the Misses
Margaret Thornton and Margaret Ton
ery nnd W. A. Lynott, brother of the
new priest. "O Salutarls," from Karcs,
was rendered by Mr. Lynott at the of
fertory. The sermon was tireached bv Rev.
Dr. Whalen, of Baltimore, a former
teacher of Father Lynott. His topic
was "The Dignity of the Priesthood."
In opening, the doctor congratulated
the young priest, his parents, and the
parish, and referred to the large num
ber of priests which the Holy Rosary
parish has given to the diocese, Father
Lynott being the seventh. "The offer
ing of the Holy Sacrifice is a daily oc
currence In the life of the priest," said
the speaker, "but this first celebration
has the charm of all beginnings. In
beholding one whom you have known
so intimately and looked upon as one
of yourselves standing for the first
time on the summit of the Holy Mount,
clad in the powers of God, you are
more likely to be Impressed with the
dignity of the priesthood."
He then went on to show the trans
cendant excellence of the Christian
priesthood, as compared with the pro
phets and priests of the old Law. This
excellence he divided, from the fact
that the priest In his official capacity
is identified with Christ, impersonating
Him, the latchet of whose shoe John
the Baptist declared himself unworthy
to loose. Under the new law. as there
is but one acceptable sacrifice, so there
,is but one fitting priest, Christ, him
'self. Next he showed the solicitude of the
church in forming the moral characters
of candidates, so that they would be
worthy priests.
TOLD IN A FEW LINES.
While celebrating the Fourth, Miss
Irene Williams, of Edna avenue, was
painfully Injured on the hand. Miss

For County Commissioner
Of Lackawanna County
Gwilym Jones
Of Scranton, Pa.
SaHftP
SUBJECT TO THE DECISION OF THE REPUBLICAN VOTERS OF LACK
AWANNA COUNTY AT THE PRIMARY ELECTION, TUESDAY,
JULY, S, 1902, FROM 4 TO 7 P. M.
In the list of candidates seeking recognition from the Republican party on
account of yeoman service performed, probably none are more worthy of the
confidence of the public than Mr. Gwilym Jones, who has been favorably men
ioned for the office of County Commissioner.
Gwilym Jones was born In Tredegar, Wales, on January 11th, 1S69. He
was brought 'to this country while yet an infant by his parents, who settled
on the West Side the same year, and has grown up with the leading young
residents of the Electric City. His father was well known throughout the
valley as T. ab Dewl, The elder Mr. Jones followed the occupation of min
ing, and was a member of the executive board of the miners' committee In
the trying times of 1877.
For eighteen years Gwilym Jones worked In and about the mines on the
West Side, and for two years was employed In tho moulding shops. He was
a resident of the Fifteenth ward for twelve years, and has always been
prominent as a party worker, and ,has n political record that Is unassailable.
Mr. Jones has always been a true fliend of the miners and a strong sup
porter of their cause In every Instance.
Gwilym Jones Is not only fortunate in the enjoyment of a pure record, but
also possesses a pleasing personality. There Is no more delightful man to
meet. He has a genuinely line mind; is frank, friendly, and wins the admira
tion of nil acquaintances by his modest nnd unassuming ways. At all times
his manners are unaffected and cordial. Populur wlth'all; with malice toward
none; straightforward, energetic and enthusiastic, Gwilym Jones can cer
tainly lay claim to recognition as an Ideal candidate of the best Republi
can blood of the city of Industry. . )
In seeking the nomination for the office of County Commissioner on the
Republican ticket he does so with the knowledge that he cun render efficient
service to the people in the conduct of the affairs of the county, all of which
come under the direct control of the Commissioners' office. Some years of
service on the Board of Assessors for the City of Scranton, has qualified him
especially In the knowledge of assessed valuations of property, not alone with
in the city, but throughout the country.and In this special branch alone, where
with the County Commissioners' office has a very great deal to do, he can
serve the people well, From childhood he has lived In Scranton, nnd slnco
reaching manhood has been loyal In the support of the Republican party
and the principles which have made It strong In the hearts of the people.
Adv.
the changes and developments of the
decade.
It was essential, ho said, to bear In
mind at all times Christ's teachings,
and our future usefulness nnd Influence
could be maintained only by holding
aloft tho standard of Christianity.
