AUTUMN SERVICE.
Interesting Event Conducted by the
Sunday School of Elm
Park Church.
The annual Autumnnl service of the
Him Park Sunday school was held last
evening. The church Interior was
tastefully and appropriately decorated
with autumn leaves; songs of the har
vest time were tendered and a timely
sermon was delivered by the pastor,
Rev. C. M. Oinin. D. D.
He had for his text, "We All Do Fade
as a Leaf," from the sixth verse, slxty
fouith chapter of Isaiah.
In likening the growth of a soul to
the fruition of nature, he drew many
apt and effective comparisons.
"The autumn Is a teacher of re
sults," he said. "Wo may llouilsli with
leaves and think to hide our barren
ness, but God Is not deceived, When
he comes in the autumn time Ho will
look fur fruit, It Is for you to see lie
searches not In vain,
"Honot nun or those thousands of
vines in tlio Master's vineyard whoso
branches are barren or whose fruit does
not linen,
".Sonic fruits require a long season to
ripen, but ripen unto great sweetness.
Some, on the other hand, never ripen
and never have sweetness. It Is the
same with bonis."

MARRIED IN SYRACUSE.
John Reynolds and Mrs. Gomer Price
United on Sept. 12.
Announcement lias Just been ni.ulo of
the wedding In Syracuse on Septem
ber I'.', of John Iteynolds, u member nf
the llrni of Iteynolds liros., stationers,
and Mrs. Gomer Price, of South Hyde
Purk avenue, West Scranton,
The ceremony was performed by llev.
Albert Coll, IL L, pastor of the Hap
llst church, at tho home of the bride's
slster-ln-Iaw, Mrs. O. I). Urcen, on
Rust Geneseo street. The meeting at
Syrueusq wus pre-arranged, Mr, Itey
nolds coming from tho Adlroudacks,
mid Mrs. Price gonlng from Scranton
to meet him.
The wedding was kept it secrot until
a few duys ago, when they announced
it to their friends. Hoth are well
known lu the city, and are receiving tho
congratulations of their friends. They
will reside on South Main uvenue.
members who are known to have been
wavering 'and a very general return of
those who were induced to leave the
mines and re-join the union on the as
surance that the conference would bring
about a settlement. Tills fact will In
duce the strikers' pickets to redouble
their numbers and efforts to prevent
men from reaching tho mines.
The soldiers are anticipating this
extra activity on the part of the strik
ers and propose to be also out In in
creased numbeis to prevent the pickets
from carrying their "missionary"' work
to unlawful limits. There Is probabil
ity of a day of turbulence and possi
bility of some serious clashes.
The coal companies look upon the
failure of the white house conference
as the death-blow of the strikers' cause,
and will be greatly disappointed If the
present week does not see the begin
ning of a general break in the strikers'
ranks. From nearly all the comnanv
offices come reports of strikers waiting
on the superintendents and saying they,
and many others they know "of, Intend
to return to work, now that it is shown
that not even the president of tho
Tnlted States can btnlge the operators
f i om their position. They also report
that there is an undercurrent of feeling
adverse to the action of the union's offi
cers in so summarily Ignoring tlio
proposition of settlement made by the
operators at the conference. The com
panies declare that If a convention was
called and this proposition submitted
to a secret ballot the delegates would
vote to accept it by a large majority.
WHAT LEADERS SAY.
The mine workeis' leaders say tho
proposition is a mere sham, intended
solely to befuddle the public, and assei t
that resolutions will come poinding in
from tlio focals endorsing the action of
i-resmeiu .Miicneu in rerusing to con
sider the proposition.
Prayers were said at many of the city
churches yesterday morning and even
ing for the speedy termination of the
strike. The Idea was suggested during
the week and met with general an-
proval by tho city pastors.
Saturday night witnessed an attack
on sentries at the camp by stone throw
ers, an attempt to wreck an engine
carrying soldiers and the capture o'f
two men skulking about the camp, one
of tlieni armed with a shot gun.
It was close on to midnight when
the stone throwing took place. A sen
try at Post 10, near tho southeast cor
ner of the camp, was lilt by a stonu
which came out of tho darkness from
the direction of u mine cnve-ln, thirty
yards away. He noticed a llguro on
all-roura moving stealthily along a
fence near the cave-in and he called
"halt," Tho call was unheeded and tho
sentry llred. Tills brought a squad or
the giiuid to the scene and a search
was made for the piowior, but ho had
escaped,
About the same time that this was
occulting sentries along the cast lino
of the camp skirting tlio Delaware and
Iludbou railroad wero made targets by
a oIley or stones. Diligent search was
inntlo for the btone throwers, but with
out success,
llalf-uu-hnur later, a sentry found
Peter Ingoldsby. an Olyphant striker.
piowliug about tlio edge of tho camp,
just within the lines. When out prised
by the seiitiy. Ingoldsby felgnt'd drunk
enness. Ho was placed in tlio guard
house, and In tlio morning ta.kcu before
Colonel Wat res. Ho told tho colonel
he had taken a friend homo from Oly.
pliant to Grassy Island, and on the
way back accidentally strayed within
the lines, Colonel Watres romauded
him to the guard house until his case
could be further Investigated.
SHOOTING AT A BIRD.
At daylight, yesterday morning, a
stiuud of Captain itaub's men from
Company L sighted a man with a shot
gun In the brush near tho (Irassy
Island colliery. As two of thu soldiers
approached lie llred a shot and the
charge went whistling by the head or
one of them. lie pretended lie did not
know the soldiers were approaching in
the direction in which he shot. He wus
shooting ut u bird, he said.
The mddleris ordered htm to r!vc up
his gun, but lie Indignantly refused
Until tlm Holitlcrn covei'pd hlin with
their lilies nnd bade him drop his
Wcapoif. When placed In the gunrd
house ho made an attempt to throw
n way seven loaded shells, which he
carried secreted on his person. A gunrd
saw the act and recovered tho shells.
Tho prisoner watt titan detected lu the
act or taking from his pocket and
pinning on his coat lapel one of Watres'
campaign Imttotis, which wore so gen
erously distributed lu tho latalffubor
nutorlit! canvass. .
Tho prisoner when arraigned before
Colonel Watres was Identified as Guls
seppc Fepprlllo, a resident of Grassy
Island, who has been reported several
times as a general disturber nnd wor
thy of being watched. Prior to tht ar
rest, Colonel Watres had received In
formation that Popprlllo wns tho cus
todian of n largo quantity of nrnis and
ammunition that strikers of the Grassy
Island locality have been collecting. A
consignment of COO cartridges, It was
reported to tho colonel, was received
by Popprlllo a few days ago.
Early Inst night, Colonel Wntres sent
Major Itobllng, with Companies B and
L, to search Paprlllo's house, a,nd the
story was proven to bo true. Twelve
hundred rounds of cartridges used In
shotguns were unearthed. The fnet that
every man In that region seems to own
a shotgun makes this discovery signifi
cant. Pnprllio claimed ho bought tho
cartridges to sell to hunters. lie keeps
a .small store.
Paprlllo and Ingoldsby wcro handed
over to Sheriff Schadt and taken to tho
county jail, i
TRIED TO WRECK ENGINE.
The attempt to wreck an engine car
rying soldiers took place on th- nar
row guage road connecting Ulrdseye
with Olyphant. A squad of half-a-dozen
soldiers Is sent out each even
ing to patrol the Blrdseyo region. Sat
urday evening, tho engine was stoned
from nmbusli near Blrdseyo and just
around a curve from the point where
the stones wero thrown a pile of large
rocks and the trunk of a tree were
found on the track. Tho engineer, for
tunately, saw the obstructions Just In
time to avert an accident.
Some shots wero fired In the early
part of Saturday evening as a squad
of soldleis passed through the western
end of Olyphant near Throop. In the
darkness It was impossible to find any
one about who could possibly have
done the shooting. A resident of the
neighborhood told tho soldiers that the
shots were probably fired by a crowd
of small boys who have established a
miniature camp near that point, and
amuse themselves playing soldier.
They have toy guns and pistols, and,
it is said, use only blank cartridges.
Saturday afternoon, Captain Huff, in
command of Company II, at Stenick
Creek, telephoned to cump that a large
crowd of foreigners, some of them
armed, were gathered on the bank of
the river opposite to where his com
pany was stationed, and judging from
their actions he thought they might
be contemplating mischief. Colonel
Watres despatched a. detachment of
the Sheridan troop to the scene. The
crowd dispersed at the approach of
the cavalry.
Liveryman Ross Edwards, of 1J23 Ca
pouse avenue, and Howard Dennis, of
1717 North Washington avenue, wcio
held up and robbed by six armed and
masked men on a road In Jessup at 11
o'clock Saturday night. The highway
men were engaged In searching their
victims when frightened off by the ap
proach of a detachment of the Sheri
dan cavalry, which was patrolling that
locality. The robbers got only eighty
cents.
MORE STONE THROWING.
Last night, again, there was stone
throwing at the sentries surrounding
the camp, and despite extra guards
secreted beyond the sentry lines, the
stone-throwers made their escape. Com
pany I, stationed at Sterrick Creek, wns
stoned from the woods just outside its
post and fired a number of shots in re
turn, without hitting anyone.
The Thirteenth's camp was thrown
open to visitors during a part of yester
day afternoon, and for the first time
ladles were permitted to cross the
lines.
The privilege was extended in the
following order posted sit headquarters

Despite the rain, there were neatly a
thousand visitors at the camp, fulfy
half of them ladles, Tho rain ceased
nnd the sun came out at -1 o'clock, Just
as the boys were preparing for dress

A score or more of Catholic members

(VDniinell, who celebrated the mass, had
specially Invited them to come and tc
setvod pews for them.
Prefatory to his sermon on the gospel
of tho day, Father O'Donuell took oc
casion to say a few words intent tho
soldiers. He commended John Mitchell
as a wise leader and advised the strik
ers to heed him, particularly lu his plea
for strict obseivunce of the law. Tho
soldiers mo here, bo went on to say, to
perform a sworn duty. They arc to
protect thu citizens of Olyphant Just as
much as any one or anything else, If
such protection Is at any time needed,
They are the enemies of no man who Is
a law-abiding citizen.
He then repeated some or his remarks
of last Sunday, concerning tho manner
lu which the citizens thould treut the
soldiers. lie advised his people to keep
away fioip tho camp, except when on
necessary business or when the public
wus invited there on a visit. Young

Tho bowling season of 1002-03 opens
tonight, when tho eight teams com
prising the Scranton Bowling league
will piny, tho first gnmes in n
series which will continue until 'April
1G next. Tln tennis hnve alt been organ
ized and have been engaging In prac
tice games for the past few weeks, so
that the bowlers should all be In good
trim on Monday night.
The league this year is composed of
five of the teams which rolled lost
year with the City lengue namely,
the Franklins, Arllngtons, Cumbrians,
Hnmpes and West Side and three new
teams In ndditlon, the Backus, Inde
pendents and Mnennerchor. Eighty
four games are to be rolled, and a
player to be eligible for any of the
numerous prizes offered must roll In at
least seventy-eight. This permits him
to lose but two nights' bowling during
the season.
The Backus team, which rolls this
year, will be one" of the strongest ag
gregations of bowlers In the lengue.
On It wilt bo "Billy" Hopkins, by gen
eral admission the city's safest and
surest bowler; Fahrenholt and Peck
ham, both of whom rolled with the
team In the Northeastern league last
season, and Vogelsang, a new bowler,
who is said to bo a comer. The place
made vacant by tho absence of Charlie
Moore, who Is on duty with the Thir
teenth regiment, hns not yet been filled,
but there are several strong men be
ing considered.
The Arlington team will be captained
as last yenr by William J. Melster, and
Is the only team which will play all
Us old men, Including P. W. Roll, Os
car Jones, C. Klefer nnd John Klefer.
The West Side tenm, formerly the
Becker, has been entirely re-orgnnized
by Bernle Coons, the captain. Four
new men, Rowland, Beynon, Davis and
David Jones, have been secured to up
hold tho honor of the West Side.
The Mnennerchor team comprises
five lusty members of this wc-11 known
South Scranton singing organization
W. Zelsman, John Zelsman, Westpfahl,
Rupert and Heinz all of whom possess
to a greater or less extent the Inborn
German love for bowling. The Cam
brian team, which is to represent the
North Scranton alleys, has not yet been
definitely decided upon. Ten men have
been trying for places on It for sev
eral weeks past, and the make-up will
not be decided until today.
The Hampe team has been completely
re-organlzed by "Bobby" Wharton, the
captain, who hns picked four of the
best men who have been rolling during
the past eight months on the alleys of
which lie is In charge. These are
Piine, McWilllams, McAloon and Cyrus
Evans, all new league bowlers, with
the exception of the last named, who
was the best man on the Ill-fated
South -Side team of last year.
The Elk alleys will be represented by
two teams, the Franklins and the In
dependents. The Franklin team will
comprise Rlehl and Phillips, who rolled
in the Northeastern league last year;
Bircher, Its last year's captain, and
Rothermel. The fifth man Is yet to be
selected. The Independent team is an
entirely new organization. Its mem
bers will be Peter N. Haan, Ridgeway,
Jansen, Murphy nnd Madenspacher.
The American Bowling league rules
will prevail this season and the laxity
which has been observed in the past
will give way to a strict letter-of-the-law
Interpretation of them. A step
one-hnlf an Inch beyond the foul line
will count as a foul, as will also a loft
ed ball, after the player has been
warned by the umpire. Conversation
between the spectators and the play
ers will be .discouraged, and a player
if interfered with In any way by an
onlooker will have permission to roll
again.
A new Innovation will bo the station
ing of a man selected by the .visiting
team at the pit to see that the boy3 set
the pins up properly. Tho pins should
set squarely in their proper places to
Insure perfect accuracy. Bowlers know
to their sorrow that low scores are too
often attributable to carelessness on
the part of the boys setting up the
pins.
