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."

HOSPITAL AMBULANCE FUND.
The Ttlbuno'a proposition to raise a
fund for an ambulance for the West
Side hospital has been very favorably
received, and meets with tl hearty
approval of the directors of tho hospi
tal and tho public In gcncrnl.
Dr. W. A. Paine, one of tho hospital
physicians, Is enthusiastic In the mat
ter, and has been u hard worker In tho
Interest of tho hospital since its estab
lishment. Dr. 11, G. 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.
In all probability at the next meet
ing of the board of tradf) n committee
will be nppolnted to solicit funds to
wards the purchase of an ambulance,
and It Is understood that Miss Mar
garet Glbbs has an elaborate produc
tion under way for tho same purpose.
The subscription list has been start
ed, the proposition hns been favorably
received, and It is to be hoped that the
plan will be substantially recognized
by a ready response.
Send contributions to The Tribune
branch olllce. corner of Main avenue
