COMPLAIN OF THE WATER.
The residents In the vicinity of Eynon
street are asking themselves whether
It Is seweraco or drinking water that

a period of two weeks the water has
been of a dark, muddy color and has
had a nasty taste nnd odor, even a
long boiling hardly purifying It. The
residents consider thoy have waited
nearly long enough for a chnngo and a
protest may soon be entered. At least
the board of health's attention v.'IU bo
called to the nuisance and disease
breeder.

PRICE OF COAL GOES UP.
Advnnccd Twenty-Five Cents n Ton
nt Now York Yesterday.
The nrlco of grate, egg, stove nnd
chestnut coal advanced 25 cents a ton
yesterday, at New York, and there Is
a likelihood of another advance In Sep
tember or October next. At present
the miners hereabouts are working
about three-quarter time and seem to
be Just able to keep abreast of the de
mand. There are no longer stocksaccumulat
lng at any of the storage points of the
coal mining carrying companies. Yes
terday morning 128 empty canal boats
lay In and around Honesdale waiting
for coal, which proves that the stock nt
that point is at a very low ebb.
It Is the policy of those now regulat
ing the coal trade to mine only enough
of coal to supply the demand.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
Under this head In it short letters ot tn.
terest will be nubltshed when awnmru.
nleii; for pubUcatlon, by the writer's
i naroe. Tho Tribune will not ba held re
i tponslbla for opinions here-expressed.)
Dittclaimcr from rrnnk Von Horn.
Editor of the Saranton Trtbuno,
Sir: Will you kindly publish in your
next iJHua the following statement a an
act of courtesy towards my mother, for
which I shall esteem It a great favor. In
your lusuo of this date, July I, page 8,
fourth column, it read thu "It was also
reported at one time that5frs. Van Horn,
mother of the fugutlve, was In the habit
of carrying- food to her 3on. She was
shadowed one day by the county detec
tive from Dunraora ta Carbomlale. but
here hi last track of her. She had a
large basket with her at tha time."
I hereby challenge tho county detective
to verify this statement or otherwise
prove that my mother has ever ben In or
near Citrbondale for more than seven
years, dhe Is now 75 years of age and In
delicate health, caused chiefly by having
a fugitive boy who Is wanted upon a
charge of murder. If we examine thU
detectivo statement In a common sense
way wo find he had scoured the wholo
county in tho vlclnty of Carbondala In
search of George Van Horn: afterward
he received the Information that he was
still In hiding In tho neighborhood and
feil by his aged mother. Upon the
strength of this Information he shad
owed this woman of 75 years with a lanro
basket of food a distance of, ay sixteen
miles, there he lost her. In mjvoplnian
any detective who would make suuh a
statement la a disgrace, to any detective
force. Ii It. therefore, any wonder so
many escape the hands of justice In our
county? Frank Van Horn.
