SUCCESSFUL COURSE CLOSED.
l'lcnsing Ihitertalnnient Chen by
Xow renlurj Club.
The course of entertainments given
under the management of the New
Century club closed Wednesdny eve
ning with Lavott's Boston Storh, who
gave general satisfaction. As a whole
the course has proved meritorious. Tho
entertainments of it, together with
those given by the Cycle club among
which are the Welsh Prize fclngers,
AVendllng and the Mozart Symphony
club have supplied Carbondale with
the opportunity of hearing home of
the test talent to be had.
The support given these lias pioved
that there Is not much pecuniary piof
it to organizations enteilng into the
work, and at tho same time it shows
that a good course may be given an
nually without loss to the projectors.
The Cycle club has already signified
its Intention of providing a course for
next season, and If itb efforts of the
past may be taken as a criterion. It w 111
be the best course the city has ever
had. Good attractions are being list
ed, and In taking time by the fore
lock the wheelmen have done well.
THAT BOARD OF TRADE REVIVAL.
Henson Wlij It Should Tome Very
Soon.
Aided by an article In jesterdav's
Tribune, outlining a plan for the or
ganization of a body to be known as
tho Associated Boards of Tiade of
Lackawanna and Lu7erne counties, the
leader summoned sufficient temerity
to .suggest a revival of the local board
of trade, contrary to the wishes of cer
tain "powers that be."
Well, the revival must come. An or
ganization such as that proposed by
Scranton would not be complete with
out Carbondnle In it, and furtheimoie,
Carbondale cannot affotd to remain out
of it.
Articles In The Tribune have stlned
up some Interest in this matter nnd a
little more agitation will oveicome the
obstacles that have, for months, stood
In the way.

The first annunl banquet of the Tay

Impiesslve, and the hnppv, smiling
faces of the members and their fi lends

these goiges Is the Ausible chasm,

The galleries, caves and castellated

which the funnels had to pass on their

the chasm nt this point v.ns a hheer
des-cent of 125 feet In thobe emly davs
the ploneeis were not skilled In the ait

when a fierce Ftoim thundeied through

"Impossible, sir; I tell you that the
bridge blow down ten years ago."
"Again I tell jou, my frlond, that I

the Imperturbable answer. "It was too
dark for mo to see, but I heard the
clatter of my horse's feet on the plank
ing nnd the noise of the water in the
chasm below."
The nigunient vvuxed vvatmer and
warmer until the sti anger said that
they would wait until next morning,
when it could easily bo settled If there
was a bridge or not. Ho made a vvngor

Oil bl tho Nuts Mity Ho Used for Soap
and Culinary Purposes.
In view of the fact that theto Is a
superabundance of peanuts raised
every year in A'lrglnln, Neyth Caiollna
nnd other pnrts of the South, the sug
gestion Is made that peanut oil be used
more extensively In phanmcy, and bo
permitted to take the place, to n cer
tain extent, of olive oil. Professor S.
P. Sadtler iccently pioduccd an expeil
mental soda soap from the oil extract
ed from American peanuts. In report
ing this fnct he remarked significantly
that the bulk of the castlle soap made
In Mmsellles Is made from African
peanut oil. The averag" grade of
American peanuts Is slightly Inferior
to the East African peanut in oil-producing
value, but expeilence has dem
onstrated the excellent quality of the
American peanut oil.
Foreign peanut oil comes to thlfi
country In laige quantities under dif
ferent .-.ames, much of It labeled "vir
gin olive oil.' Piofessor Sadtler ays
of his expel itnents with oil fiom A'lr
glnla iwanuts- 'The cold-piesed oil
