Mr. C. K. Munn, Bftlom avenuo and
Church street, to whom news Hems may
bo addresed. All complaints as to If
refcular delivery, He, should bo mado to

TO KEEP CUBA COOL.
Tho Hendrlck Manufacturing Com
pany "Will Ship nn lco Machine.
Carbondale Is now experiencing one
direct benefit of the war. The Hen
drlck Manufacturing company has re
ceived nn order for a brine cooler for
the refrigerating machine which Na
than Strauss, the New York million
aire philanthropist. Is building In San
tiago. The Ice machine will be greatly
appreciated by our Kick soldiers nnd
sailors In the conquered city, as well
as by the Inhabitants, who will be
greatly benefitted by It. They wilt
have cause to remember this cltv for
the attachment which the Hendrlck
company is making for the machine,
which Is a very essential part, nnd by
Its use the manufacture of Ice Is made
easy. The Ice machine Is being built
by another firm, hut the cooler Is made
here because the kind made by the
Hendrlck company is the best there Is
for the purpose.
The fact that our city has nlready
felt the effects of American occupation
of a single province of Cuba can be
taken as an Illustration of what the
results would be of a far-reaching "Im
perial" policy, as the Mugwumps call
the expansion of the country nnd the
course of manifest destiny.
SAME OLD TROUBLE.
Constable Moran took four men to
Honesdale yesterday for hearings be
fore Justice Smith, who Issued war
rants charging them with Halting In
No. 4 reservoir contrary to the law
protecting the water supply of com
munities. The men are William Gor
don, John Doyle, "William Jones nnd
Thomas "Walsh. The company officials
say that they will push the case to the
extreme, as they have been much nn
noyed of late by persons who Insist on
fishing In the reservoir. The law holds
the company responsible If they do not
protect the drinking wnter, nnd the
officials say they will make examples
of the cases now In hand.

BIGHT TREES SACRIFICED.
Eight beautiful trees of Memorial

Besides possessing an Intimate ac
quaintance with tho Intricacies of law,
there are few men In this part of tho
state who have a more thorough
knowledge of the details of navigation
thnn our esteemed nnd well-known
townsman. Justice of the Peace Glldea,
There Is nothing connected with that
branch of activity that the 'Squire can
not discuss Intelligently, and during
the war now happily ending he has
been looked upon as standard author
ity on questions relating to seaman
ship. All this comes from the 'squire's
personal experience as one of the men
"who go down to tho sea In ships."
His early years were spent before tho
mnBt, and he still has a lingering af
fection for matters relating to the sea.
Recently he put his knowledge to a
practical test by building a schooner
which Is now complete and ready to
sail. Every mast, tackle and spar Is
reproduced In the model Just as per
fectly ns they are In the original, and
It Is fully as seaworthy. Tho keel Is
weighted with a sheet of lead, tho
masts are properly set and every detail
Is arranged with the greatest care. The
'squire has spent his spare time at tho
work for a long time past, and he now
has a vessel he may point to with
pride. It Is his Intention to present It
tJ the oung son of his friend, John J,
Simpson, of Carbondale, and It Is quite
likely that It will soon "walk the water
like n thing of life," on the bosom of
Cryrtal Lake. The ship has been on
exhibition at Mr. Glldea's home for
some time, and it has been seen and
admired by many of his friends.
The current number of tho Ameri
can DMigglst contains a short story
from tho pen of our talented young
townsman, John A. Foote, that has
won much favorable criticism. It Is
entitled "What Dreams May Come."
The plot Is very Ingeniously conceived
and admirably unfolded. That It was

appreciated as much by the publishers
as by tho public was evident from tho
generous remltnnce he received for It.
Mr. Foote hns also wrlten a story for
the Rosary Magazine, which will ap
pear In an early number. Mr. Foote's
name Is already familiar to the readers
of Tho Tribune as the writer of the
prize story, "Tho Last of the Druids,"
which appeared In Its columns two
years ago. It Is gratifying to know
that Mr. Foote's remarkable talent Is
being appreciated,
AVOOA.
Miss Nellie Norwood, of Memorial
hospital, and sister, Mrs. C. Bishop,
returned to their homes In Trenton yes

ments for the event.
At St. Mary's church excursion on
Aug. 23 there will be a drawing for a
first-rlass Victor bicycle nt 10 cents a
chance. Since but few excursions have
left here this season to Lake Ariel, this
promises to be one of the largest out
ings the congregation have had In sev
eral years.
The Mooslc Pojmlars went to Lake
Ariel on Wednesday to meet the Hones
dale team. An Interesting game was
expected, but owing to the unfairness
of the umpire selected by the Hones
dale manager It became evident that
the Populars were not going to win.
However, to procure the guarantee
they remained In tho field to finish a
tiresome game. Score, 12 to 1.
The residents of this town arc high
ly Incensed over the manner in which
they are treated by the Traction com
pany. There are three cars plying be
tween Plltston and Mooslc and only
one of these Is nn open car. The
Avoca people are generally crowded
out of this one, as the scats are occu
pied by the time It reaches tho town.
The two closed cars are dirty looking
machines, fit only for firewood, and the
sooner they make this- disposition of
them the better it will suit tho people
In Avoca.
The Standard Electric, Heat, Light
and Power company met in Avoca yes
terday. Ex-Congressman Jordan, of
Tunkhannock, wns chosen president.
The directors are A. H. Squiers, E. T.

STIFF DRINKERS, PURITANS.
Their Distrust of "Water and Predil
ection for Medford Hum.
From the Independent.
Our Puritan ancestors hardly Imag
ined that water was cither a healthful
or a sufficient bevcrnge, If we may
judge from some paragraphs In their
letters and diaries. Governor Brad
ford bitterly complains of the hard
ship of having to drink water, as no
beer or wine was to be had. In 1629 an
appeal was sent to the Home company
for "ministers," a "patent under seale"
that their legal status as colonists
might be clear and stable: and also
they want "vyno plantes," wheat, rye,
barley, and also "hop rootcs." When
the answer to this appeal was sent by
a ship that was provisioned for three
months. It carried "forty-five turns of
beere," "two casks of Malega and Ca
narle," "twenty gallons of aqua vltoo
(brandy), and for cooking, drinking
nnd all only six tuns of water? The
Rev. Mr- Hlgglnson, the first minister.
In writing back a glowing account of
the attractions of the country, said his
health had been benefitted by tho tine
air; and he added:
"Whereas my stomach could only di
gest and did require such drinks as
were both strong and stale, now I can
and doe oftentimes drlnke New Eng
land water verle well."
One Wood wrote In tho New Eng
land's Prospect that the country was
well watered, and with a water unlike
that to be found In England:
"Not so sharpe, of a fatty substance
and of more Jetty color. It Is thought
that there can be no better water In
the world, yet dare I not prefer It to
good Beere, as some have done- Those
that drlnk.lt be as healthful, fresh and
luctls as they that drink beere.
Thoso hop roots must have flour
ished, for as cafly as 1631 the people of
the colony had passed a law for put
ting drunkards In the stocks, nnd
brewhouses multiplied, and an "ale
quart of beere" could bo bought for a
penny. The manufacture of other
drinks developed rapidly. Fifty years
later, Judge Sewall names ale, beer,
mead, metheglln, cider, wine, sillabub,
claret, sack canary, punch, sack-posset,
and black cherry brandy. Every
body drank elder, which was produced
on every farm In aboudance, Besides
these there was "beverldge" and
"swizzle" made from molasses nnd
water, and many kinds of beer; but
the grand and universal drink was
rum. Ships took corn, pork and lum
ber to the West Indies nnd brought
back raw sugar and molasses, which,
once here, were speedily converted Into
rum. There was a distillery In every
Inland town, while those on the coast
had scores of them. Tho significant
name "kllldlvll" was universally given
to It, and It was shipped to the African
coast In exchange for slaves. "Fjiu" j
Va.
fi

inewYoRK condensed mm covn.tvv
and "punch" were made nnd drunk on
all Imaginable occasions. Laborers
would not work nt tho harvest, nor
builders nt he trades, without a liberal
allowance of rum.
Largo quantities of liquor were con
sumed when a minister was to bo or
dained, ns It witnessed In many of the
parish records still extant. Tho follow
ing record Is that of tho town of Bev
erly, Mass., nt an ordination In 1758:

Even at a raising of a meeting house
largo stores of lntoxlcnnts must be laid
In. When the meeting house In Med
field, Mass., was raised there was pro
vided four barrels beer, twenty-four
gallons West Indian rum, thirty gal
lons New England rum, thirty-five
pounds loaf sugar, twenty-five pounds
brown sugar, and 4G5 lemons. When,
a century ago, General Washington
was engaging a gardener. It was ex
plicitly stated In tho contract that ho
should have
Four dollars nt Christmas, with which
he may b drunk for four days and four
nights: two dollars nt Easter for the
same purroro: two dollars tt Whitsun
tide, to be drunk for two days; a dram
In tho morning, and a drink of grog at
dinner at nonn.
Every tavern displayed many decan
ters of liquor to be drunk with all
meals, free, and the flip-Iron was kept
constantly heated In tho tavern fire:
the sideboard of every private family
had a various assortment of liquors,
nnd not to ask a caller to drink was a
breach of hospitality; In short, temper
ance sentiment, ns we now know It, did
not exist.
EMPRESS TAITOU.
Some Idiosyncrasies of Abyssinia's
Rather Remarkable Queen.
From theLondon Standard.
There Is no European queen consort
filling a more dignified station than
the Empress Taitou of Abyssinia. She
has a largo household of her own,
her lord stewards, chamberlains, but
lers, cooks and guards. She directs all
the grand feasts, has Immense appan
ages all over the empire, and resources
in kind. 'She leads a sedentary life be
cause there are no Interesting prome
nades, but when she shows herself in
publls she Is surrounded with ladles,
mounted on richly-harnessed mules,
with runners, umbrella-bearers and
other attendants. The umbrellas are
of many colors, but Taltou's Is red,
The empress Is a stickler for eti
quette, to which Menelek attaches no
Importance. Nobody who has not been
formally presented to her must gaze
on her even within the precincts of the
palace. She has a large kitchen gar
den, which Is one of her many de
lights, but tho moment the red um
brella appears the gardeners must re
tire. All the servunts stand aloof with
downcast eyes as she walks by. Not
taking much exercise, Taitou Is lost In
fnt. Nevertheless, her presence Is dig
nified. She is wonderfully well Inform
ed, converses cleverly, nnd can be
charming. Her letters are well writ
ten, and In a bright, natural stylo.
They might put to shame those of
many a well-educated European lady.
The dress of the empress Is only dis
tinguished from that of her ladles by
Its Impeccable cleanliness and neat
ness. The New Servant's Methods.
