SCIENTISTS IN SESSION
Interesting Meeting Con
venes at Saratoga.
Dr. liingNbury Delivers the Opening
Address and Talks on "The Reign
of the Luw"—l)o Those In Great
Battles Know Anything of the
Fight as u Whole?
Saratoga, N. Y., Sept. 4.—The gen
eral meeting of the American Social
Science association convened at eight
o'clock last evening in the Town Hull
courtroom. The opening address was
made by tin president, F. J. Kings
bury. L.L. D., of Wuterbury, Conn.
The subject was "The ltelgn of Law "
Dr. Kingsbury's paper opened with <i
description of a battle in Tolstoi's
novel, "War and Peace," where is
pointed out graphically that the most
of those engaged in a great battle,
even commanders of regiments, bat
teries. brigades und army corps, know
nothing of the buttle as a whole. They
see only what is being enacted in their
presence.
"It Is theirs not to reason why.
"Theirs but to do and die."
To hold a position, assault a line, or
stny where they are until assailed or
ordered elsewhere. In the end they
nro surprised to learn that a little
tldng, apparently of no moment at the
time, was the turning point, und they
find themselves heroes without know
ing it. Tills key to the whole was In
the mind of the general whose orders
they had obeyed. To a fair extent,
tills has been our conception of the
battle of life. It was the Hebrew eth
ics that came to us with our religion,
but generally a reign of law has been
interposed between us anil Providence.
The rationalism of the west has super
seded the fatalism of the east, and
man has been made to feel that his
destiny is in his own hands—that he
must work out his own salvation;
that he has all the responsibilities of
Omniscience without the power. The
myth of the Sphinx, one of the oldest
in literary history, contains the lesson
that no divine power interferes to
save men from the consequences of
their own follies, even in tgnorantly
violating nature's laws, but a "reign
of law" inexorably condemns them to
pay the penalty.
Further on, Dr. Kingsbury alluded
to the great cities of the ancient orient
—Babylon, Nineveh, Baalbec, Jerusa
-- ni and even Rome—and drew from
th< ir history, decadence and ruin the
inference tiiut they perished largely
from the ignorance or neglect by their
rulers and populace of the laws of
health by which they were environed
and from the fact that they hud no
Internal redemption agencies to recup
erate them when assailed by foreign
enemies. Unlike the Paris of this cen
tury. they had no enlightened citizens
who could rebuild and relnvlgorate
their city after having been three
times held by a foreign conqueror.
"Take," raid Dr. Kingsbury, "the
case of our own civil war. Can any
body to-day tell how It might have
been averted. We can see the mighty
stretch by which our nation has ad
vanced since peace resumed her sway.
Yet, we are as much in the dark as
ever as to how we may avert future
Internecine troubles. Finally, Is our
system of the conduct of life radically
wrong, or do we come back from
whence we started, working out the
divine purposes which are best for us,
under the declarations of the poet—
' There is a divinity that shapes our
ends, rough hew them as we may.' No
proper institution will make a decent
government, without a law-abiding,
law-fearing people back of it."

than would the same amount spent

SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
lioekport, September 4, 18D4.
■EDITOR TRIBUNE.—In view of the fact
that you have often granted space in
your columns to enable mine workers to
ventilate their opinions of mine fore
men and mine managers, I think it is
nothing more than right to change the
monotony of things by granting space to
one of the latter class to have his little
say about the other fellows. For many
years I have filled the position of mine
foreman in your neighborhood. I tried
at all times to perform my plain duty as I
understood it. My aim in life has been
to do what is right irrespective of what
others might think. I have always be
lieved that in dealing with my fellow
men better results could he accomplished
by working on the line of least resistance
hence where a simple request would
suffice I have never given a command.
How well I have succeeded is not for
me to say, and it would be egotism on
my part to attempt to discuss it, but the
various letters and testimonials received
by me are flattering in the extreme and
deserve a public acknowledgement.
On the eve of my departure from your
neighborhood I was presented with a
beautiful gold watch by the employes of
No. 5 colliery, Upper Lehigh. The event
was a surprise for which 1 was wholly
unprepared, and while I may have said
much to the committee which presented
it, yet I realize that I have overlooked
some very important matters, chief
among which is to properly thank them,
which 1 now do publicly.
I am not vain enough to think that
this testimonial is a tribute to my per
sonal worth. On the contrary, I am
fully conscious that it is a high tribute
to the eternal principle of justice, paid
through me, its humble votary. It is a
specific acknowledgement that the divine
injunction, "I>o ye unto others as ye
would have others do unto ye," is the
only true code to govern human action,
and still holds a dominant place in the
hearts of men.
To the various friends who by word
and deed have so honored me, I return
my heartfelt thanks. The magnificent
present I have received and the circum
stance under which it was presented,
has made a lasting impression. It will
always be a source of pleasure to me to
wear the beautiful watch, to explain
whence it came, and in the evening of
life, when the shadows commence to
grow dim, to religiously transmit it to
the care of posterity.
To the men who have worked under
my charge for many years I say good
bye. Individually and collectively, I
thank you. It will always give me
great pleasure to hear of your welfare,
and if many of you will only remember
the advice I often gave you it will have
a tendency to smooth your pathway
through life.
Should you Btray around Rockport at
any time the latch-string is always out,
and the table will contain the farm's
choicest gifts. Again, good bye, and
that happiness and prosperity may at
tend you, is the earnest wish of your
friend, Thos. C. Sheppard.
BASE BALL POINTS.
The attraction at the park here next
Sunday will be the well-known Catasau
qua club, the strongest semi-professional
team in the Lehigh valley. The club
contains such noted players as Malone,
Gilbert, Chambers, O'llara and others
who have made records on the diamond
in the past few years.
Ashland has been admitted to the
State league in place of Easton, the club
there having disbanded for the third
time this season.
Catiirrli Cannot bo Cured
with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they
cannot reach the seat of the disease.
Catarrh is a blood or constitutional
disease, and in order to cure it you must
take internal remedies. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, and acts direct
ly on the blood and mucous surfaces.
Hall's Catarrh Cure is not a quack
medicine. It was prescribed by one of
the best physicians in this country for
years, and is a regular prescription. It
is composed of the best tonics known,
combined with the best blood purifiers,
acting directly on the mucous surfaces.
The perfect combination of the two in
gredients is what produces such wonder
ful results in curing catarrh. Send for

People using the Home Comfort steel
range speak-as follows:
Whitei Haven, August 19, 1894.
To whom it may concern. This is to
certify that we have a Home Comfort
steel range in our home and find it in
every way, so far, as represented by the
salesman, 11. C. Robinson. Our water
tank boils quickly, it bakes nicely, takes
up a small amount of room in the house,
is certainly cleaner and neater than east
iron stoves, no ashes flying, the closets
are very nice and luindy to warm vic
tuals in and for what time" I have used
it, would not take two others for it.
