Enjoy an Outing Other Notes of General Interest. A. B. Jones, brother of loan Jones, who resides at 332 Garfield avenue, a former resident of this city, who was engaged as a miner in the Hampton in aRfii is mnklng n name for himself in Mexico. The foltowlnE from the Two Hepnullto. published In the city of Mexico, will be of Interest to many of the older residents of West Scranton: W. I.. Crawford, representative of a syndicate of Chicago capitalists who nro Interested In n large tract of land in the Tuxpan valley, arrived In the city from that place a few days ngo on a business trip. In by-gone days he was a newspaper man, serving four teen years In various capacities on the leading San Francisco dallies. "We have a gentleman down nt Tux pan whoso good work deserves to be better known than It Is." said he yes terday. "I refer to Mr. A. H. Jones, the United States consul. Ho was tho first American consul to make n report on the conditions existing in that part of Mexico, and during his short term of olllce about n year, I believe he lias done more for the good of the United States and Its citizens living in that legion than all tho other consuls from the Putted States that Tuxpan ever had. He Is a diligent student and goes to the bottom of every subject that he takes up. He has learned all about the different methods of curing vanilla and has taken tho greatest In terest in everything pertaining to the development of the country. His re ports to the government at Washing ton are carefully written and show a thorough knowledge of the subjects ticated. Kvery little proposition of any soit receives his attention and his aid to tho American residents has been In valuable. This Is something that the Americans appicciato. as It has neve been done before. Whatever Mr. Jones asks of tho authorities Is always grant ed and In Imnortant business matter be Is consulted by the merchants at Tuxpan. It Is a pity that he Is where there are so few oportunltles to show Ills true worth. In the past American consuls have not done their dntv ni well as those of other foreign countries, and In a case where a man shows such unusual ability In that line of work I think ho deserves advancement."

Beddoe atid Dr. George B. Heynolds, who nre also members of tho hospital staff, are very favorably Impressed with the sugges tion. In connection with the raising of the fund It has been suggested that tho several mine funds, which Include the employes of the vailous collieries with in the scope of the hospital, Interest themselves, Innsmuch as they are par ticularly benefitted by the hospital, and will undoubtedly be helped In eases of accident where an nmbulance Is neces sary to convey their Injured members to the hospital. The secret and beneficial societies, who have already furnished rooms at the hospital, will bo directly Interested, particularly when It Is necessary to re move a sick or Injured brother from their homes to the hospital.
