A SEASON OF REVIVALS Ilo Mitrrltt, the IlrangfllM, Xailo Her Farewell Lmt Hrenlng, Hut War Sabscifuantly Induced to 1'rotong Ilr Stay A Clans Confirmed 1y Hot. Gruhlor. Holy week commenced very auspi ciously In many ot the churches of town yesterday, especially in the English Bop tlst church, on South Jardln street, whero eight baptisms were made, and In the Prlmltlvo Mothodlst church, where tho ardent and very successful evangelist, Jliss De Jlerrltt, took her farewell after a season of revival work highly satisfactory to both hersolf and the congregation of tho church. But after tho service JIlss De Jlerrltt acceded to urgent requests nnd will remain hero for threo nights more. On Wednesday evening, next, she will positively retire. During her stay Miss De Merrltt has made about twenty eight converts. Tho congregations of tho Welsh Con gregational nnd Welsh Calvanlstic Meth odist churches also entered upon the last week preceding Easter with excellent sprltuol nourishment dispensed by Rev. K. K. Lewis, of Scranton, at the former church, and Rev. John J. Williams, of ijeuign county, nt tne inner. At the Triuitv Reformed church last evening Hev. Hobert O'ISoyle preach a very interesting sermon on "I'eters Denial: Our Warning." Tho church was crowded and next Sunday will witness the increaso of tills congregation's mem- uersuip uy nitceu, all neails or iamllies. There was a very impressive Bervico In tho German Lutheran church yesterday, when a class of eighteen young peoplo ranging from 14 to 17 years of ago was confirmed. It was nn occasion of special pleasure to Hev. John Gruhler, tho pastor, ns ho christened nil but two mombers of tho class in their infancy nnd it wns'his twenty-third class since his llrst connec tion with tho church. It was comprised oi ijuarioiro i!.cKer, laura atone, lun Lenberg, Florence Seliurz. liertha Klatt, Lizzie Carls, Jlarthn Gable, Carrie Seel bach. Charles and Frederick Holderman, Harry Kilter, Charles Kaufmnmi, John llnfner, George Pegslow, Adam Stnuffen berg nnd Frederick Carl. The cliancol of the church was beautifully decorated with fresh flowers for the occasion nnd tho choir, under the leadership of Prof. Zeltz, rendered a choice program. The attend ance was said to bo larger than at any time since the dedication of the church, except on tho occasion of funerals, and Hev. Gruhler says that tho class was one of the best prepared hehas confirmed. Holy week Is given to tho last week of Lent, closing with Easter Sunday and beginning with Palm Sunday. It is also called Passion week, though tho Homan and Greek churches apply that name to the preceding week, commencing with Passion Sunday. In nil the Augelican, Greek nnd Roman churches, tho Easter season Is ono of Joy. of relielous f eelinc. of freedom from tho restraints of the pre- ceuing lorty nays 01 ienr. ino greater number of Protestant churches do not celebrate this week, but its observance is increasing, and successful revival work has been especially notlcablo iu Shenan doah during tho closing weeks of Lent this year. Easter obsorvanco this year promises to bo of such n character as has not been witnessed iu a long timo, as a consequence of tho Btrnngo revival throughout tho country which lias been ascribed to tho hard times and tho preparations in many of the religious denominations hnvo been on n most imposing scale.

Watchman Tell in or tho Night mid (liven Otlirr Hints. Editoh Evknlvo Heiiald: It is only upon tho principal streets of a town like Shenandoah that tho watchman (now modernized by the appellation of police man) can tell anything of tho night, be cause it is mainly upon those thorough fares! that tho most 1 1 1 -1 1 1 la ll (1.1 Willi.. the side streets are left iu comparative darkness. There nro many citizens who bcllero ntld Claim that our bnminrh la well enough lighted, but they nro mostly inum uvu on or requeue ono or tne main tnroughfares and are never called upon to traverse tho side streets and alleys; they are among tboso who, in fact, hove no feor of burglors or miumgiit morauiiers, uecouso tnoy eltlicr have nittliim.' to enrich thn liusv nii-lit. operatti-, or they live in security In places iignieu iiko tuu noon uoy sun. The (ftiestlon of more llcht for our bor ough rill very soon become ono of greoteHD importance to our citizens. That we havjo not enough street electric lamps is onnarent to tho veriest dummv on bor ough itJToirs. Ijooking west, from JIain street long est ueutro street, tliero Is no llghl between JIain anil West streets. The business men along that thorough fare are entitled by every qualification of citizenship to ns much light as their fel low citizens on JIain street. Looktnc south from WestCentrostreet. on South Jardln, we notice but few lights compared witli tho requirements of tho locality. Other localities in town aro as badly in need of moro licht as those mentioned. hut a conplo of Illustrations such ns aro herein mentioned will sullico for the suke of argument. Perhans the irreatest nrirument in favor of greater lighting facilities is tho fact that a well-lighted town is the greatest auxiliary to tho pollco iu preventing critno than anything n borough or city can pay for. It does not require a detailed demonstration to prove this. Tho propo sition is its own advocate. It is on axiom. It goes without snylng thnt our night conservators of the pence would receivo incalculable aid were the sido streets and alleys lighted as they should. Tho busy burglar seeks dark places to ply his vicious vocation. Heliates the light like hi? icars tne stern nana or tuo law. Jloney expended in maklnc a well- lighted city, town or hamlet is seed sown in fertile maces, lis crop will he advance ment nnd progress an attractive place to live in anil one to wnicu every citizen can point with pride. When questions of this kind come beforo our borough fathers it is to be hoped that no foolish notions of false economy will deter them from vot ing on tho progressive side. Let them remember that tho people are tho sovereigns and It is to legislate for them that men nro sent to Council. When it comes to progress in munici palities I nm of those who bo'leve that a public debt is n public blessing. Wo have lmt a short time to live nnd we will lie a long time dead. For the sake of nil in this life that thero is to be gotten of it, let us not be compelled to gropo through the world in darkness during the few short years that havo been allotted to us. It. u. u.

An unexpected demand has been made upon Horough Treasurer Ilradlgan, of Shenandoah, for payment of n judgment secured ngninst the borongb several years ago for damage. As tho borough has been producing a number of statements of into to show its llnancial responsibility, Jlr.

Gulduer'snppllcntion to tho rule the treasurer says he has no money in his hands with which to pay the judgment. So far ns the money re ceived from tho solo of water bonds Is concerned, no part of it can bo applied to tho payment of tho luilL'inent or for nnv other purpose other tlinn the construction of the public water works. lhu judgment referred to was secured in on action for damages sustained by Jlr.
