Hardenburgh, of Hones dule, was in Montrose for the confer ence on Thursday, whem the conferees of the Fifteenth congressional district met. The senutor is a tall man, very good looking and withal genial and happy. toil would not Imagine that he was a senator until he began to talk of state affairs and then It Is at once apparent that he is thoroughly conversant with the subject in general. "Yes," said he after greeting your representative, "our district is to be congratulated upon the unanimity of opinion and the existing harmony In this, the presiden tial yeur. Never before hove we found so little friction and it seems to me ns If every Republican was bent upon doing all In his power to bring about the desired result. I consider the nom ination of the present congressman lion. j. H. codding, or Towanda, a happy ending of this conference. It will be a great year for Republicans and consequently Republicans will be great." Senator Hardenburgh is well known here, and to say that he is popular would hardly express it. He has not been negligent of his duties but on the con trary an Indefatigable worker arid thus is the reason clear. HON ESDALE, The will of the late Rev. J. J. Doher ty was admitted to probate Saturday afternoon and not a week ago, as stat ed In many papers. The bequests are practically the same as already pub lished. Most of his estate goes to his niece. Miss Ella Doherty, of this bor ough. This consists principally of his residence and furniture and other es tate in the borough and Texas town ship, a note for $0,000. The second codi cil contains the following, which has been published and re-publlshed In all the daily papers and all of them have been In error. The codicil reads: direct my executors to pay $20,000 to my niece, Klla Doherty, for the erection of a hall on the corner opposite Henry Russel's munsion in Honesdale, to be called St. John's hall, and to be used for any purpose of profit consistent with the religion and morals of tin Catholic, church." The papers have all designated this hall an opera house, but In all probabilities it will not be so used. The charitable bequests have al ready been published, and the balance of the estate not left to Miss Ella Doh erty goes to his relatives. George Keefer. of Scranton. passed Sunday with Honesdale mends.
