DIED FROM STARVATION.
Joseph llcce, ol 1M mouth Is round
Dead in lied.
Wllkes-Bane, Sept. S. Joseph Reese,
who had a small shop In w hlch he sold
candy and the like on AVest Orchard
street, Plymouth, was found dead In bed
ut an earlv hour this morning, nnd sub
sequent developments leveal that he
died fiom neglect and starvation. Itcese
was a bachelor, 51 jeara old, and lived
practically the life of a hermit. The
loom In which ho lind his scanty stock
of confectionery was only CxS feet In
dimension;!, and In this he not only
carried on his business but nlso ate and
Flept there. Within the past few months
his health has been falling and his
nelghbots frequently carried in ai tides
of food. This morning he did not throw
open the door of his little shop at the
usual hour and an Investigation was
made which resulted In the dlscoveiy
nf his dead body lying on the couch In
his nanow quarters.
It Is said, by tho Times, that many
years ago Reese then a good looking
young man fell In love with a young
woman who returned his affection and
they weie to be married. Time passed
on and they looked forward to their
wedding diy with happy anticipations.
Later the prospective bride met one
whom she thought more of than she did
of Reese and the latter was cast aside.

HORSELESS CARRIAGES
FOR MONROE COUNTY
Schcmn of Stroudsburg Capitalists to
Construct n Illcvclo Path nnd ltun
Conveyances Over tho Old Dclawnro
Valley Klcctrlc Itnllwny Itoadbcd.
Stroudsburg, Sept. 8. Horseless car
riages are soon to be Introduced Into
Monroe county by a company of local
capitalists, who will also construct a
blcyolo path from East Stroudsburg to
Bushklll. A Times man learned today
that a scheme of no mean Importance
to the eastern end of this county Is
now under consideration with every
prospect of its coming to a successful
Issue, What the scheme Is will bo
learned In the following paragraphs:
A party of Bushklll residents finding
there Is little prospects of a railroad
ever being built between East Strouds
burg and Bushklll, conceived a plan to
bring several horseless carriages to
this county and operating them be
tween the borough and Pike county.
The gentlemen who arc to form the
company are Edwin PetcTS, Harry
Peters, J. S Schoonover and Dr. Beers,
all of Bushklll; Messrs. Lcderer and
Strauss, the former owner of Forest
Park hotel, and the latter owner of tho
Stevens House, New York, nnd an ar
tist of wotld-wlde repute, Mr. Harry
Herzog, of Philadelphia. They have
plenty of money back of them and will
spend It liberally to push their Ideas to
a successful Issue.
The company proposes to secure tho
old road bed of the Delaware Valley
Electric railway, which Is graded with
in three miles of Bushklll, const! uct a
blcjcle path on the same and also to
put Into operation a number of horse
less carriages, to hold parties of six,
eight and ten, nnd run them between
East Stroudsburg and Bushklll and
Inter to Pott Jervls. Messrs. Lederer
and Strauss are now In communica
tion with hoiseless carriage bulldets
and a committee has been appointed to
negotiate for tho old toad bed. This
company expect the carriages to make
the tilp In about a half hour.
In regal d to the bicycle path, which
Is In Itself a great scheme, a small toll
will he charged. This ought to pay at
the outset, considering the thousands
of bicyclists that pass up and down
during the bptlng.summer and autumn.

"Helen!"
The managing editor of the future
spoke sharply. She was evidently
nngty about something.
"Yes, ma'am," leplled the private sec
retaiy, quickly lespondlng to the sum
mons. "Wilte a note to Miss Doollttle, tell
ing her that wo will dispense with her
sen Ices in the local loom In the
futuie."
"Yes, ma'am."
"She Is di inking too much," ex
plained the managing editor, "I am
soiiy for her poor father, who is a
widower and has to depend on her for
support, but I can't help It. She will
have til go."
"I'll do It at once, ma'am."
"This liquor evil Is becoming a veiy
setlous matter," continued the manag
ing editor, musingly. "I don't much
blame those poor men out In Kansas
who have been holding prayer meet
ings In the street In an attempt to
bieak up the saloon business. They
are taking long chances of insult,
though. It's no place fot men. I don't
see what their wives are thinking of to
let them do it. Weil have to have a
good special on the subject before
long."
"Meanwhile," continued the manag
ing editor, coming down to business
again, "tell Mrs. Slasher that I want
a good stiff editorial on the women who
persist In going out between the acts
to see a glil or get a clove. It's an
Insult to the gentlemen they take to
the theatre."
"I have that, ma'am," said Helen,
looking up from her note book, "What
else?"
"Leave a note for Mr. Prettyman
about his society. Twice recently he
has made the mistake of leferrlng to
Mr. and Mis. Jones, instead of Mrs.
and Mr. Jones, as every one knows It
ought to be. It's inexcusable."
"Yes, ma'am "
"Then tell the city editor that I want
a good interview with Mrs. Margin,
tho president of the board of tiade, on
the slump In wheat. There ought to be
a good story In that. I understand
that the firm of Mesdames Coupon &
Bond was badly squeezed and that
Jennie Plunger made so much that she
blew In $200 or $300 celebrating with the
girls on tho board of trade and squared
herself at home by buying her husband
a diamond ring and a sealskin coat."
With a wave of the hand tho editor
of the future dismissed her private sec
retary and gave her attention to an

Fish Pond to Be Opened in Connection
with the Trout Hatchery Near
Krcgsvillc, Monroe County.
Prom tho Bothlehcm Times.
An association composed mainly of
Mauch Chunkers Walter Llesenrlng,
pi esldent pui chased some years ago
about 1000 acies of forest near the
junction of Wild and Hell creek, In
this, Monroe county, for the purpose
of establishing a trout hatchery. The
tract Includes the well known hosteliy
of the Sebrlngs, and not far distant are
the lands owned shortly after the war
for Independence by Gen. Ctalg, of
revolutionary fame. Its location Is
five miles noithwest of Kresgevllle,
Monroe county, or seen to eight miles
north-northeast from Selberllng's Ho
tel on the AVIre Ridge, a point ftequ
ently visited by those In search of good
chicken or turkey suppeis.
It is ns wild nnd romantic a snot as
can be found In Pennsylvania, and ex
cept that the original forest trees are
gone very little change has taken
place In the sutroundlngs for the pas',
fifty years. This location wns chosen
on account of the absence of settlettt,
the unequaltd purity and coolness of
the wateis, and especially on a" ount
of the great springs llnwlng out of U13
tocky hill called Hell's Kitchen, as
suting a p'rpetunl supply of the piiiest
water that can never be contaminated.
Besides these springs, whose waters
are led for long distance In an under
ground conduit to the hatcheiy, the
grounds aie wnteied by Wild, Hi 11,
and Cross creeks. Some native wild
at.lmals are still found In the neigh
boring dense thickets, several bcirs
nnd foxes halng been lecently trap
ped and confined on the grounds, and
by the way of vatlety a five foot
black snake and an ancient rattler of
seven Inch girth have lecently been
dispatched.
TROUT TO SPARE.
The Wihole enterpilse Is under the ca
pable management of Nathan R. Pul
ler, a native of Lancaster county, Pa.,
whose long expetler.ee In tho hatcher
ies In the United States and of the
States of Rhode Island nnd Pennsyl
vania have made him an expett In this
line. Under his management nn ex
tensive hatchery has been established,
Including hatching houses-, pools,
ponds, dams, spawning tnees, etc.
Duting the past months about 250,000
tiout hao been sold for food and
stocking pui poses. In Maich, 1S9G,
thete were hatch id out on the piemlses
COO.OOO trout. About 30,000 of this
hatchery nu now on tale, many of
them weighing half a pound apiece.
They are Inclosed in pools holding
about Cn.000 fish, and to t-ee the multi
tude lushing for food last Into the pool
Is a sight of laie interest. Tho price
of the fish has avenged 75 cents a
pound.
Fiom October to Chilstmas is tho
spawning season, and as fast as it is
taken fiom the fish It Is told for bleed
ing put poses. Later in the season, s-ay
in December, whatever spawn Is le
tained for hatibeiy pui poses on the
piemlses. Iu eighty-five days nfter the
spawn Is set to hatch the joung fty
appear. In most other hatcheiles the
tlsh appear In less time, but hete the
low temjjetatuie of the water piolcoigs
tho time very much. Mr. Bullci ex
pects to bt able to hitch out 1,000.000
fty In tho sptlng of 1S9S. Fot that iea
son extensive pieparatlons nie being
made to nccommodate ilsheis of tiout,
men or women, and a special pond of
2 1-2 acres Is now being enclosed and
Etocked with fish for the exclusive use
of women visiting the fishery. Mr.
Bullet expects to accommodate the
public next season, to furnish board
and lodging at icasonable lates and
penult fishing at the reserve at the'
rate of 50 cents a pound for all fl&h
caught.
STOCKING STREAMS.
Mr. Buller maintains that the meth
ods used by the Pennsylvania state
hatcheries' to stock the public streams
of the State with trout ate faulty and
unsatisfactory. Every season millions
of fiy aie put Into the streams and
eveiy season comparatively meagree
lesults nie obtained thetefrom. Ex
pet Iments lecently made by Mr. Buller
In stocking streams on North Moun
tain, near Wllkes-Barre, Hickory Run,
Drlfton, Saw Mill Creek, near Weiss
port and Pea Beck, N. J., have result
ed In tho greatest satisfaction to the
owners. Inste&d of stocking them
with small fry, fish four to six Inches
long weto used. Such fish are old and
sttong enough to defend themselves
against their Innumerable natural ene
mies. Thniiks Were I'reinnlure.
During tho rebellion the 19th Maine ac.
quired a reputation for foraging tho
country so thoroughly that they were

Ono day they were sweeping along din

other troop was ahead, and between
them and the 19th rodo General Hancock,
As tho general was passing ono planta

his party.
"General," said ho, "I want somo sort

"I am very sorry," said Hancock.
"Yes," continued tho old man, "thoy
