END OF THE
BIG PARADES
COMPANY REFUSES TO GIVE
THE OLD CONOESSIONS.
Father Mathew Mon at Yesterday's
Quarterly Convention at Forest
City, Said Some Tart Things About
the Action of the Delaware and
Hudson President Grant Entered
Upon the Duties of His Office, and
Made a Ringing Speech Pleas for
Organization of Mlnois.
The death knoll of the Oct. 10 par
ities of the Father Mathew societies of
the Catholic Total Abstinence union of
the dloccHo of Stum ton was sounded nt
jcstci day's contention of the First dls
tilct hold lit Fmeit City. It was ex
plained that the Delaware and Hudson
company hni lofused to Rive a low rate
ticket In futuie und allow u commis
sion on the sale of tickets as In the
past.
From $400 to $G00 was realized on
this cxcurslo- each year, and this p tac
tically paid the expense of the union.
Diocesan Secietaiy Timothy Burke,
of this city, .said the ralhoads
nic discriminating against tlio tatn
rr Mathew societies and the Oc
tober 10 parades aie now n thing
of the past, due cntliely to the fact, as
is alleged, that the Delaware and Hud
son tomp.iny refused absolutely to
allow any lebate on excursion tickets.
Tickets could be sold at reduted rates,
but not at any compensation to the
diocesan union. The circumstances In
lonnectinn ulth the Delavvaie and
Hudson company and the refusal of a
lebate would be made known, he said,
in a letter now In pieparatlon by Rev.
P. J. McManus, pabtor of St. Paul's
-hurch, Gieen Ridge, and piesldent of
the union.
William R. Giltoy. of Archbald, first
t Ice-president, inci eased the flavor of
p!ce contributed bv Mr. Burke to the
homcuhut diy routine of the conten
tion. He tt.is called upon by Piesldent
Giant to address the delegates.
CAN'T UNDERSTAND.
"I don't understand," he said In his
opening. "How the coal opeiatois or
the coal tairjing lallioads should dis
ci imlnate abotc all otbeis agaln&t to
tal abstainers. We want to see the
mineis' union win," ho bald furthci.
"We must take to heait the gospel of
that noble leader. John Mitchell, and
keep the peate The man who bicaks
the law- is the union's ttoist enemy.
Let us, be tempeiate In our feeling as
well as our appetite. We must not only
dlbcouiage the Intempcinntc of otheis,
but also tutb omseUes Tiieie has
bten little drunkenness and little lo
lente, dcbpite the sensational lepoits
hent bro.ultast Intemperance and
tiolente go hand in hand The labor
lcadeis know this well when they
counselled the niincis to be temperate.
The paiting shot at the coal opera
tor and to.il caujlng load piesldents
was filed lit Michael S Latelle, of
West Scianton, second t ice president
of the Scianton Diocesan union.
There was a discussion as to the paj -nient
of the $10 bj e.ith otlcty, as sug
gested h the board of government to
make up the dcfliit of $100 Ml. La

THII NEW PRESIDENT.
The business that the contention
transacted was almost nothing. The
ndcliebj, of John W. Giant, of Jeimyn,
the new piesldent, who pieslded foi the
lliht time, was one of the featuies of
the session.
Piesldent Giant dlstliaiged his new

It Is not possible for the pioprletors
to publish more than a very few of the
numerous lettei s lecelyed In praise of
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diur
rhoe Remedy and telling of Its remaik
nblo cures, They come from people In
eveiy wulk In life, and from eyery
elate In tho Union. The following from
Mr, T. "V. Gi outhouse, of Prattsburg,
Gii speaks for Itself: "I would have
been dead now but for the use of Cham
berlain's Colic, Choleia and Diarrhoea
Itemedy, It cured mo of chronic diar
rhoea, after set en yeais of suffering. I
can never say too much In praise of
that lemedy," For wle by all drug-

Tho hornet What awect and holy sug

to neighbor ns well as to God. In this

JUVENILE SOCIETIES.
In an address by M. S Latelle, of
West Scianton, the delegates were
urged to form luveile societies, which
must be the mainstay of the adult so
cieties the feeders for them. He uiged
gills' societies, as well as boj' "This
may not seem necessaij hero," said Mr.
Latelle, ' but in my home we see things
thnt jou don't In this place."
Societal y John B DeLaney occupied
his office for the flist time. On the
stage were: William R. Gilioy, Aich
bald, and M. S Lavelle. Stianton, dio
cesan tice presidents; Tlmothv Butko,
Stianton, diocesan secietaiy; Peter
Cleat y, Forest City, and Patilck F. Gal
lagher, Jussup, of the dlstiict boaid;
M. J. McCaithy, Olyphant, distiltt
ticasurer.
At tho conclusion of the contention,
an enjojnblc musical piogiamme was
lendciccl as follows: Vocal solos, by
Frank Brennan, Foi est t'llv: Mls Bea

faibondalc: Teiesa McGotcin, Jci invn,

Tiieie Is one thing that Dlicctor of
Public Safety Wounsoi has iccently io
fubed to abk bids foi on, and that is
hoiscb feonie poibons who hadn't 'lead
Soliiitoi Watson's opinion on tho con
tiact question, and who fatoi the ad
t oi Using for bids in all cases, told the
diiector that he should follow his usual
custom and adteitlse foi sealed pio
posals for hoi ses. But he kicked and
said he w ouldn't.
"Not on join life," he is lepoitcd to
hate said. "Theic aie things vou can
ask for bids for and aw aid the con
tract to the lowest icsponslblo biddei,
but ou can't do it with hoi ses. Some
one might bend in a bid agiecing to
furnish the city with hot ses at $10
each, nnd ou know what kind they'd
be. We'd hate to buy them, though, If
we advertised."
And so the lioises will bo bought
without adteili.slng for bids.

said the colonel to a Tilbunc man jes
