THANKSGIVING
IN CHURCHES
UNION SERVICES IN THE CEN
TRAL CITY.
They Were Conducted in tho New
Ornce Lutheran Church at Prescott
Avonuo and Mulberry Streets.
Sermon Was Breached by Rev. Dr.
C. M. Glflln, of Elm Park Church.
Services Held by Other Congrega
tions That Did Not Participate in
the Union Exercises.
In nil the churches throughout the
city yesteidny there were special serv
ices of praise and thanksgiving nnd tho
attendance was exceptionally large in
nearly every instance, because of tho
delightful balmlness of tho nlr.
The union service for tho central city
wns conducted In the now Grace Luth
eran church, at Prescott avenue and
Mulberry street. The bright and cheer
ful auditorium was filled with worship
pers representing the congregations of
the Kim Park Methodist Episcopal,
Grace Reformed Episcopal, Penn ave
nue Baptist and Grace Lutheran
churches. Special music of an elabor
ate character was rendered by the
choir.
ltcv. Dr. Robert F. Y. Pierce, of the
Penn avenue church, led In prayer and
the benediction was pronounced by
Hew Luther Hess Waring, of the Grace
Lutheran church.
Tho sermon was delivered by Rev.
Dr. C. M. Glinn, pastor of the 131m
Park church, whose theme was "The
Absentees from the Thanksgiving," the
text chosen being Luke 17:17; "Where
Are the Nino?"
Ho described the healed who ran off
forgetful or neglectful of their bene
factor, while one lone stranger lingered
about Jesus to glorify Him with his
glorified voice, doubtless very musical,
as It was filled with the emotion of a
glad heart.
"The healer," lie said, "liked the ap
preciation of the one, yet ex
pressed surprise that his praise was
sung as a solo rather than as a chorus.
He healed ten; Ho heard one. Wo ob
serve that the leprosy went from their
hands to their hearts. Once a stench
In tho nostrils of men, they became an
offence to God."
Call of the Executive.
He referred to the call of the execu
tive for all the people to gather to
voice their united thanks to heaven
and then to the small attendance at
the church services. The dearth of
gratitude, ho said, would argue a de
fect in giving. In referring to what ho
termed the substitution of gourmandiz
Ing for gratitude, he said:
What was onco tho holy day of New
England has become tho holiday of our
republic. Tho bill of faro is fixed and
certain articles must be found on tlio
menu or tho celebration is not orthodox.
Tho chef Is now tho clergyman; the sne
rlllccs offered aro turkey and other vi
ands; thn worshippers are staffers and
tho end of their devotion is a sickness
through surfeit. The poultry trust could
almost prevent tho proper celebration of
Thanksgiving.
The doctor gave large liberty for a
generous table and suggested that
sometimes the cold victuals offered
children hi some families on Sundays
gave them a life-long dislike for that
day. He discussed at some length the
excuses made for silence when the na
tional anthem of praise is called for by
tho executives of state and nntion. Ho
affirmed that tho loudest notes are not
from the most blessed. The angels bear
up glad music from broken harps, and
tho face with the most heart In It on
Thanksgiving may be the one on which
the shadows have been heavy. Con
tinuing, he said:
Some stay away because they feel they
havo won the prizes they poKsess. Thoso
nine had no such excuro. They got their
Improvement from a power beyond their
own. Some aro not present among tho
music makors of this occasion because
they havo only a share In common blesn-ing-,
and that is no reason for rapture.
Others refuro to attend as they havo not
had ns much of the usual gifts as some
of their neighbors. They measuro exist
ence In tho rlni and not at the heart.
If they havo not had great chances to
gain stuff they havo had much privilege
to grow boul.
Glodnofs 1-1 not to tnko the place of
gratltudo. Possibly tho nine were happy
in health. Dancing Is a clear way to
iihow you havo recovered from rheumat
ism but it is not a fair way to pay the
doctor. Tho crowds who needed no euro
stared Instead of singing. They needed
no healing nnd health is bettor than
healing. The myriads today aro not mu
sical bcc.iupo not recovered. To bo kept
from fulling In the river Is ns great a
good as to bo rescued from drowning.
Growling nt God.
Dr. Glflln showed how some are led
to growling at God by keeping a list'
of what they want and do not get. He
turned to look at what we feared and
did not come to us.
Tho sin of sllonco Is not to bo excused
by tho plea that wo do not know how
much wo own since tho bureau of statis
tics informs us of tho Increase in our im
menso wealth. All exhibits of riches aro
showings of our debt to God. Our great
est peril is In tho excess of our advance.
Wo forget God In our fullness. Ono of
tho worst results of great prosperity Is
that It often puts uh out of Bympathy
with men. Tho woe will bo upon us when
wo aro sclllbhly saying "Seo, what I
havo," rather than "Seo what we have."
Gratltudo goes up and goes out. Wo aro
beginning to appreciate being rathor than
bclonsliic.
Tho mlno commUslon Is studying tho
extra hazard of tho workers below tho
ground. It means much when tho stato
of each is of Interest to all. Tho Itus
hian general said to tho Kngllbhmnn ns
ho touched a sentry near him, "Wo will
beat you always for wo can loso 100,000
of these without feeling It In any way."
Wo allow no such ludircerenoo to human
life. In our land.
Wo know of tho battle between broth
era. A'o aro too closo to tho conflict to
shut our eyes to it. If thero Is no smell
of powder Just now thero Is somo bad
blood circulating, Hut wo novo coat and
wo havo bread and tho day must como

or ono language ns much as ono sweet

Tuesday Evening, December 2.
MAGYARS WILL HAVE A
CHURCH OP THEIR OWN
Corner Stone of the New Building
Was Laid nt Throop Yester
day Afternoon.
Speclul services Incident to the laying
of the corner stone of their new church
were held yesterday afternoon by the
Associated Magyar church of Throop.
The organization of this church dates
back about five years ago, when a body
of Magyars waited on Rev. Dr. S. C.
Logan and informed him that they
were members of the reformed church
of Hungary and requested him to assist
them In arranging for tho holdlrig of
services by themselves.
In pursuance of their request the ex
ecutive committee of presbytery se
cured Rev. Julius Hninborsky to min
ister to their spiritual needs. On Eas
ter Sunday of last year sixty-two Mag
yars united with the Dunmore Presby
terian church and were immediately
dismissed to form the Associated Mag
yar church of Throop. Last May the
members, under the leadership of Rev.
Hamborsky, began to prepare for the
erection of a new place of worship.
The executive committee of the Lack
awanna presbytery secured from the
Throop estate two lots on which to
build the structure. During the strike
last summer the excavating was done
by members of the congregation as well
as the laying of tho foundation. Tho
contract for the superstructure was let
about two weeks ago to the Dunmore
Lumber company and work was im
mediately begun, it now being so far
along that the services yesterday were
held in tho building.
The seats for the new structure were
given by tho First Presbyterian church
of Scranton, and the stained glass win
dows, slate and doors were given by
J. D. Williams & Bro., being taken from
the First church recently purchased by
them. The Iron fence surrounding the
First church is to be taken to Throop
by trolley through the kindness of
Manager Silllman.
The services yesterday were in charge
of Rev. W. F. Gibbon, of the Dunmore
Presbyterian church. The tiholr of the
Dunmore church sang sweetly, "The
Church's One Foundation." Rev. S. II.
Moon, D. D., of Peckville, offered prayer
and addresses were delivered in the
Magyar tongue by Rev. Hamborsky,
Rev. Bela Basso, ot Lorain, Ohio, and
Rev. L-. Zobray, of West Plttston, talked
in English.
A. W. Dickson, treasurer of the ex
ecutive committee of the presbytery,
delivered a stirring, patriotic address
on tho civic duties of his hearers.
'."he ceremony of the .laying of the
corner stono was conducted by Rev.
Dr. S. C. Logan and the stone was
placed in position by some of the mem
bers of the congregation. The benedic
tion was pronounced by Rev. Coleman,
of tho Throop Methodist Episcopal
church, after which all present united
in singing the national air, "My Coun
try, 'Tis of Thee."
LEFT TO JOIN THEIR
SOLDIER SWEETHEARTS
Two North Scranton Girls Left for
Danville on Monday, but Were
Arrested There by Police.
The soldier boys of the Twelfth regi
ment left many aching hearts behind
them. A few weeks ago they left the
scene of action for the quieter scenes at
homo and there worp many cases of
"the girl I left behind me."
Two of these romantic maidens, Win
nie Flanagan, aged 15 years, of Theo
dore street, and Maude Henegan, aged
1C years, of Hudson street, pined and
bewailed their fate because of the gulf
which separated them from their sol
dier sweethearts and last Monday they
packed up a few of their belongings
nnd took a train for Danville, where the
Idols of their lives reside.
Their parents managed to secure sev
eral letters which tho pair had received.
From these they arrived at the con
clusion that the money to pay their
railroad fare had been sent on by some
of the soldiers. They also learned that
they had gone to Danville and informed
Superintendent of Police Day.
Tho latter put himself Into commun
ication with the Danvlllo police author
ities, who succeeded In arresting the
two girls on Wednesday night. They
had been running about the streets
slnco Monday night In the company of
several of the soldier boys.
Their fathers left yesterday morning
for Danville and will return this morn
ing, bringing tho twain with them. It
Is understood that nn effort will also
bo made to prosecute tho soldiers who
lured Iho girls from home.

RECITAL
OBSERVANCE OP
THANKSGIVING DAY
Business Was Generally Suspended
and tho Mines Were tho Only
Industries Working.
While Scranton did not share ns
well as somo other places In the en
joyment of "peace and prosperity" dur
ing tho year now closing, It had cause
to glvo thanks that Its Ill-favored days
are past and gone, and It did give
thanks qulto as general and heartfelt,
It is safe to suy, as did moro favored
communities.
In all tho churches, Protestant, Cath
olic and Jewish, special Thanksgiving
services were held, and in several in
stances two or more congregations
Joined in their thanksgiving. Works of
charity, In token of gratitude for the
blessings that the year has brought
were numerous. Tho ladles of, St.
Luke's church led in this work, distrib
uting bounteous dinners to all deserv
ing poor who came under their notice.
The public school children, as has come
to be an annual custom, brought with
them to school on the day before pro
visions or money and had them distrib
uted among the charitable homes for
children.
Delightful fall weather prevailed
throughout the day and the central
city streets in consequence had many
promenaders. The four theaters were
crowded at both matlneo and evening
performances, and a good sized crowd
attended the foot ball game at Athletic
park between St. Thomas college nnd
the Scranton High school.
Business was very generally sus
pended and tho mills and factories
closed down, but on account of tho
shortage of the coal supply tho mines
were worked. The Delaware, Lacka
wanna and Western company worked
half a day and the other companies a
full day, though all were more or less
short-handed.
NEITHER SIDE SCORED.
The Scrnnton High School and St.
Thomas College Elevens Are
Very Evenly Hatched.
For the second time this season tlio
Scranton High School and St. Thomas
College foot ball elevens lined up yes
terday afternoon at Athletic park, and
again both sides failed to score, as in
the previous game. It was the largest
foot ball crowd seen on a Scranton Held
for many a year, and the apparent
evenness of both teams increased the
interest of the spectators, the partisans
of both elevens being out in force to
cheer the boya on to victory.
Several times during the play the ex
citement ran high, only to be subdued
by some play which carried the ball out
of reach from the goal posts.
Both sides played a splendid game
under trying circumstances, as the field
was almost a sea of mud, and a major
ity of the scrimmages seemed to bo In
the muddiest places.
High School did the best work during
the llrst half, pushing the ball Into St.
Thomas' territory with persistent regu
larity, and at one time narrowsly es
caped scoring, when Bower tried for a
drop kick from tho 40-yard line, which
only fell short by a few feet. In the
second half, St. Thomas led with a
seventy-yard run and towards tho end,
by a succession of rushes, advanced
the ball on two occasions for big gains,
onco making it total of over fifty yards.
For St. Thomas, McCann and O'Toolo
did good work, while Thayer, Bower
and Levi were conspicuous for High
School, and Allen's tackle of O'Toolo
after his long run wns a feature. Tho
play throughout was a succession of
punting and see-sawing, which added
interest to the game. Thayer skirted
the left end several times for good
gains.
Several times the ball was kicked be
yond tho goal line, such touchbneka
being of no consequence except to bring
tho ball back into the held again.
The game was welt played, 'and was
free from any accidents. The line-up
was as follows;
St. Thomas. S. II. S.
O'Toolo full back Stono
McCann quarter back ....Bower
Grower right half Edwards
