WORKING FOR CHRIST.
SUCCESSFUL CONVENTION HELD BY
THE TRI-COUNTY UNION.
The Christian Kndeavorern' Tenth Yearly
Convention Held on Friday—Large At
tendance and Karnest Attention Mani
fested by the Delegate*!.
The Christian Endeavor societies of Lu
zerne, Lackawanna and Wyoming conn
ties, composing tho Tri-County Union,
held their annual convention in Freeland
on Friday. Delegates from nearly every
town in the three counties where there
aro branches of the union located, were
present, and numbered several hundred.
The convention was carried on with ad
mirable success. All of tho sessions
were largely attended, tho work done
was peculiarly appropriate to Christian
Endeavor aims, and the subjects were
treated and the addresses delivered in
an able manner.
# The work of the convention was divid
ed into three sessions. The day sessions
were held at St. John's Reformed church
and tho evening session at the Grand
opera house. This morning session was
opened with a prayer by Rev. .1. J.
Kuntz, of St. Luke's Lutheran church.
Rev. .1. W. Bischoff, of Upper Lehigh,
warmly welcomed the delegates, and
President .1. C. Manning, of IHttston, re
sponded. The session was mainly taken
up witli the business of the union. The
reports of Secretary C. E. Daniels, of
Scranton. and Treasurer A. W. Brittain,
of Freeland, showed the union to be in
good standing financially and continu
ally growing.
Prof, and Mrs. Lowe, of Philadelphia,
sang together sweetly and solemnly and
their work was highly appreciated by
the delegates and others who attend
ed. Rev. T. A. Mills, of Wilkesbarre,
delivered the convention sermon. Dr.
Mills proved to ho an able speaker and
did full justice to the part assigned him.
The afternoon session comprised the
real business of the convention, and the
church was taxed to its utmost to ac
commodate the large crowd iu attend
ance. Rev. S. Cooper, of St. Paul's
Primitive Methodist church, opened the
session, after which Prof, and Mrs.
Lowe, assisted by the delegates and
•others, sang. B. F. Armstrong, of Wilkes
barre, superintendent of tho Luzerne
County Bible Society, spoke on "Essen
tial Preparation for Service." Mr. Arm
strong showed tho efficacy of prayer at
all times, and urged more sincere and
earnest effort to carry out that part of
their pledge which relates to reading
the bible every day.
"Essential Part of Christian En
deavor" was the subject of a paper
treated by Miss Margaret Morgan, of
Wilkesbarre. Miss Morgan's paper was
one of the most brilliant of the day and
was full of instruction to tho delegates.
Christian endeavor, from Miss Morgan's
point of view, did not consist solely of
mere society work, but it had a broader
and more liberal meaning which was the
instilling of Christian fervor into all
great movements of public and private ;
importance, and the particular necessity |
of more earnest work along the; lines oi
good citizenship and honest government.
The Upper Lehigh Juniors, under the
leadership of Superintendent Hoover,
conducted a meeting similar to the
manner in which they hold their services
every Sunday afternoon. The meeting
showed tho Juniors to be well trained.
Ex-President Thomas F. Wells, of
Scranton, and Rev. C. I. Junk in, of
Philadelphia, who wore to address the
convention, did not appear, and James
.1. 11. Hamilton, of Scranton, opened u
question box. Among the questions
submitted were the following: "Is the
Christian Endeavor pledge in conflict
with the pledge; taken on entering the
church?" "Is the Christian Endeavor
plcdgo superfluous?" "What is the best
way to have societies pay monthly dues?"
"Should names of delinquents be carried
on tho rolls of societies?" "What are
the causes of lukewarmness In socie
ties?" "What is tlio condition of a
church without a Christian Endeavor
Society?" "Is the Christian Endeavor
Society considered a stopping-stone to
the church?" "What will be tho ulti
mate future of the Christian Endeavor
movement?" Tho questions were an
swered by Mr. Hamilton, and sugges
tions on tho various topics were made
by the pastors and delegates.
Ten minutes were devotol to the
pastors to speak of tho good done by
young people's societies. Several re
sponded within the allotted time, all ap
proving of the societies iu tho heartiest
manner.
The nominating committee reported a
list of officers, which owing to some de
clinations was referred for consideration
to tho evening session.
The session closed with consecration
service by Clias. G. Richards, a student of
Princeton university, and singing by the
convention.
One of the largest gatherings ever
assembled in the Grand opera house was
present at tho evening session, which
opened with prayer by Rev. 11. E. Wil
son, of tho Methodist Episcopal church.
The Freeland Glee Club rendered sev
eral selections which were highly en
joyed.
The nominating committee reported
FREELAND, PA., MONDAY, JUNE 21, 1897.
the following officers, who worn elected
unanimously: President, Rev. E. Flack,
Plymouth; vice president, Rev. .1. J.
Wagner, Hazleton; secretary. Miss Delia
I*. Evans, Scranton; treasurer, Jos. J.
Shaw, Freeland; superintendent of
good citizenship work, James J. 11.
Hamilton, Scranton; superintendent of
evangelistic work, Rev. W. F. Gibbous,
Dunmoro; superintendent of junior work,
Mrs. J. C. Campbell, Wilkesbarrc; ex
ecutive committee; .1. C. Manning, Miss
Louisa Stark, R. M. Grosser. Rev. T.
A. Mills, of Wilkesbarrc and Parker
Price, of Hazleton, were selected by the
nominating committee for the presidency
and secretaryship respectively, but de
clined owing to lack of time to devote to
the duties of the oflices.
Owing to the lateness of the arrival
of Rev. Dr. Way land Hoyt, of Philadel
phia, the speaker of the evening, Rev.
J. \\. Bisclioff was called upon to ad
dress the convention. Rev. RischofT
made a telling address, showing the
humble origin of the Christian Endeavor
movement and tracing its gradual
spread over the whole world.
Prof, and Mrs. Lowoand the delegates
sang several, times, and the newly-elect
ed president was introduced by tho re
tiring president, Mr. Manning. Rev.
Flack was warmly received and made a
favorable Impression.
Soon Rev. Hoyt arrived and addressed
the convention on tho subject of "Van
quishing." The subject was happily
chosen, and the vanquishing of those
things which have a tendency to lower
and degrade the human race was treat
ed by Dr. Iloyt in a manner which could
not be other than beneficial to all his
hearers, lie also gave many good sug
gestions on vanquishing evil thoughts
from tho mind. He was at times hu
morous and his practical illustration of
how a man should not conduct himself
at a Christian Endeavor meeting was
highly appreciated. He held the closest
attention of his audience throughout.
The convention closed with prayer by
Rev. Iloyt and singing by the audience.
The local society was fully alive to
the comfort of the visiting delegates,
and the latter had none but words of
praise for the manner in which they
were treated during their stay here.

and the Date May lie Changed—The
Revenue Muddle.
Harrisburg, Pa., Juno 18, 1807.
Last week 1 made mention of the de
cision of Judge llanna, of Philadelphia,
on the new direct inheritance tax. lie
bases his decision on the fact that the
law exempts 85,000 of inherited property
from taxation and holds that this ex
emption is an infraction of that clause
of the constitution which declares that
"all taxes shall be uniform upon the
same class of subjects." To overcome
this defect in the bill, a new measure
was introduced in the house. It strikes
out the 8">,0()() clause and makes all in
herited property taxable. The bill
comes up for final passage in the house
this weok, then goes to the senate, where ,
it will be hurried through as fast as pos
sible, so that the governor can sign it.
This amendment, it is thought, will set
tle definitely the constitutionality of the
measure. The former measure was ex
pected to raise a million and a half of
revenue annually and this amendment
added will Increase it to two millions.
Last Monday evening a resolution was
offered in the senate, setting July 1 as
the time for final adjournment. The
resolution passed and was sent to the
house, where it was promptly passed.
Later in the evening it was seen that a
mistake had been made, and a resolu
tion was offered reconsidering the mo
tion, but it was lost. As it stands now
■lnly 1 will be the end, but it is generally
understood this will be changed to Jul\
15.
The senate, as usual, on Thursday
adjourned, with leave of the house,
until Monday; when the request was
made of the house it unanimously ob
jected. The house followed this up
by refusing to concur in the senate
amendment to the Hamilton road bill,
reducing the appropriation from 81,000,-
000. to 8500,000. It the senate does not
recede from its former decision, the bill (
will be sent to a conference committee
for adjustment.
Since the governor's message has
been received, in which he opposes in
creased taxes, the question naturally
arises whore is the increased revenue to
come from. It is the thought of those
who are expected to suggest and conduct
.revenue legislation that the state income
could be materially increased by passing i
laws that certain taxes now turned into
county treasuries be diverted entirely to
the state treasury. For instance, there
is the personal property and interest
taxes and the license fees. If these
formed part of the state revenue the
income would be very considerable and
would relieve the stato very much. 'ln
all probability something of Litis nature
will be tried during the remaining
weeks of the session. This would raise
revenue for the state, without increas
ing state taxation, but the money return
ed to and used by the counties would
have to be replaced and more than like
ly by increased taxes from other sources.
The counties would then bo held respon
sible for increasing taxes and not the
state.
Unless the session is extended beyond
the time fixed, many important bills will
have to be dropped. None of the appro- I
priation hills have been reported and
experienced legislators say it is absolute
ly impossible to bring them out in time
for final consideration before July 1.
Both bodies are anxious to get away,
they agree that final adjournment should
be postponed, yet neither body is anxious
to assume the responsibility.
Governor Hastings lias signed the act
of assembly to prevent wearing of any
badge or button of any labor or fraternal
organization without right to do so b)
membership. The act provides that any
person who shall do so shall bo subject
to a line of 8100.
The governor has also signed the bill
to prohibit the adulteration or coloring
of milk or cream by the addition of so
called prosorvaliness or coloring matter.
The penalty for this is a fine not exceed
ing 8100. lie has also signed the acts
regulating lunacy commissioners; au
thorizing state banks to pay interest on
demand certificates; regulating location
of hospitals, cemeteries and pest bousos
in second-class cities; regulating time of
suits against sureties of constables; vali
dating certain school district debts, and
the act requiring that all corporations,
associations, companies, firms or indi
viduals employing peVsons who are not
citizens of the United States shall, upon
the recoipt of a written notice from the
tax collector of the district, deduct from
the wages of such employes a sum suffi
cient to pay the respective amounts ot
taxes assessed against each and pay it to
the collectors of the district in which
said aliens are employed within sixty
days after notice; also the amended dog
tax bill, the act amending the school law
to allow use of school books in vacation
and providing for the ascertainment of
damages for streets taken for opening.
