AND VICINITY
MATTERS OF INTEREST IN
MONROE COUNTY.
Now Factories Started in Strouds
burg Temporanco Work of a
Novel Character The P. O. S. of
A. Notes Concerning Foot Ball.
Doath of William Starnor-Deer
Are Plentiful.
Special to the Scrnnton Tribune.
Stromlsburg, Nov. 20. Tlio temper
ance advocates of this town and Kast
Stroudsburs pror.ose a most novel
campaign this coming spring. A short;
time ago Rev. Robert II. Cr.iwford,
pastor of the Methodist Episcopal
church of this place, announced that
he would road off the names from the
pulpit of signers of license applica
tions. Rev. Crawford had been ac
cused of letting up on the members of
his church who sign liquor Ilcens33,
but his announcement, which was)
made at the close of a Sunday sermon,
sets at rest all doubt as to his atti
tude on the liquor question. Today
the announcement was made by tho
Rev. K. E. Dixon that he would follow
Rev. Crawford's plan of campaign and
not only read from his pulpit those
who sign license applications, but
would take other interesting subjects
and give them a public discussion.
Rev. Dixon Is one of the leaders of
the cold water party in Monroe county
and has for years been very outspoken
on the liquor question. It Is proposed
by both these well known pastors to
give the lawyers who arp employed
by the liquor dealers a raking up from
the pulpit. There was a big slump In
the prohibition vote In this county at
the late election, but thlH has not given
the prohibition leaders any discourage
ment, and they appear to bo laying
plans for the next attack, which will
bo made when licenses are resumed
and new ones granted.
NEW FACTORIES.
Two new factories s-tarted here to
3ay, the MlnsI pulp mill and a new
ihlrt factory. The Minsl pulp plant
has been Idle for sonv.' months. The
whole plant Is cxpectfd to be in op
eration by the middle of the week. All
the old hands that asked for work
have been re-omp!oved, and the out
look Is said to be very encouraging.
The pulp factory recently changed
hands, and it 13 announced that the
plant will shortly be enlarged and a
better grade of paper will be manu
factured. The shirt factory nt East
Strouil-burg 13 a new industry. At the.
head of the enterprise Is ex-Postmaster
"W. II. Vops. Arrangements havo
been going on for some time past and
the plant, which saw Its first start to
day, will bo a manufactory for dress
shirts and negligee shirts. The may
chines are all workr-d by female hinds.
It Is expected that new machines will
be put Into the building at an early
day.
An event of great Interest was tho
dedication of the Patriotic Sons of
America building at Mountain Home,
under the nusplcts of Washington,
Camp No. 4S3. Patriotic Sons of Amer
ica, The affair proved a complete suc
cess. William Weard, state secretary
of Philadelphia, had full rhar of tho
regular dedicatory ceremony of the or
der, which was very beautiful. Secre
tary Wcand spoke as follows. "Rrcth
ern of Washington Camp No. JS3, of
the Patriotic Order Sons of America,
we now deliver Into your hands this
hall, expressing the hope that peace,
harmony, happiness, prosperity and
brotherly love may be your constant
portion; that these walls may never
echo the sounds of discord and strlf
and that all the Influence (lowing from
hence may be good and fcr good con
tinually." After tho dedication an ex
cellent program was rendered, after
which supper was served in the dining
hall.
FOOT BALL.
Tho Normal second foot ball team
won a game with Bangor against great
odds. From the ntart fate seemed to
be against tho local team. The game
was played on tho Bangor grounds.
After leaving the Normal about a mile
out, tho traces broke, and after a iB
lay of about half an hour they pro
ceeded. When nearlng the Klttatlnny
house at the Delaware Water Dap, one
of the hack springs snapped In two,
leaving tho team stranded. After an
other hour's wait they secured a 'bus
and pushing onward, they arrived In
time for tho parry;. Without dinner tho
boys plunged Into the fray, winning by
the score of 2S to 0. Upon their ar
rival home the Normal students gave
tho boys a rousing reception. Bon
fires were lighted, and yells and songs
were Indulged In by everybody. Tho
second team thus far has a good rec
ord. They played two games which
were tic and defeated Stroudsburg by
a score of 18 to 0.
DEATH OF WILLIAM STARNER.
News was received today of the death
of William Starner, a well-known vet
eran of tho Civil war, after an Illness
of long (standing. Deceased was afrbut
r'xty years old, and leaves a wife and
large family. Starner received one of
the largest pensions In this county, $72
per month. He contracted rheumatism
while serving In tho Federal army and
for many years has had to be wheeled
around In a chair, on account of his
body being so crippled with the dis
ease. Tho cause of his death Is be
lieved to bo an abscess on the heart
and hasty consumption.
STRAIGHT VOTE IN PIKE.
1 There Is one county In the state
where straight voting Is popular. At
tho recent election Pike county, both
Republicans and Democrats, voted
straight. There Is a difference of only
four votes between the three candi
dates on the Republican ticket and a
difference of only six In the votes cast
J for the three Democratic nominations.
I The explanation Is that the farmers
havo not full knowledge of the new
system of voting. The same mav bo
said of the farmers of Monroe county,
who prefer to vote tho straight ticket,
for fear that a mistake may bo made
and the ballot thrown out.
Deer this year are plentiful both in
Plko and Monroe county. In the for
mer county they appear to bo very
tame. On Monday afternoon a mag
nificent five-pronged buck made Its ap
pearance in tho garden of Constable
Kelly, of Lackawaxen, and dined on
the cabbage patch. A few days ago a
numbc of boys chased a fawn .about
the lower part of Mllford for several
hous before It escaped them. Milkman
Aldrlch saw one In his barn-yard the
other morning. It is claimed that thus
far this year over one hundred deer
have been killed In Pike county. The
record for last week Is twenty-five.
City sportsmen are expected in this
county later on In goodly numbers.
The season at Canadensis has been a
good one thus far. Tho local men have
not done much big shooting this year,
but are content with bagging small
game.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.
New York, Nov. 2C Tho stock mar
ket confounded all tho prophets today
by turning reactionary m tone. All
of the fraternity of professional spec
ulators came down to Wall street this
morning Inclined to tho bull side. Their
operations combined with nn outside
demand through commission houses in- I ,
vlted by last week's course of events I
carried prices upward for a brlnfipef-1 '
iod, but realising promptly becamo '
manifest and Manhattan developed
such conspicuous weakness as to affect '
the whole list. By noon tho weakness
had become marked In a number of
Industrials and specialties. This was ' !
attributed to the expectation of a de
cision by the United States BUprcm
court In a cne bearing on tho validity
of tho new form of Industrial combina
tion, which has been so wisely used In
tho last year. Tho Industrials rallied
considerably when tho news enmo from
Washington that tho decision had not
been handed down today. The rally
was due to operations by room traders,
and the explanation of tho early weak
ness came from the same source and
was simply an effort to interpret tho
weakness of stocks, which wag a pal
pable fact. The renewed weakness
after the rally showed that tho ex
planation was rather wide of the mark.
The sufficient explanation of tho down
ward course of prices was that larg
holdings of stceks were thrown over
last week to take ndvantnge of tho
strong market caused by the bond re
demption plan of tho treasury depart
ment. Last week's buyers And no
widespread demand for stocks from tho
public at lnrge and Urn market Is con
siderably overweighted with specula
tive holdings walling to icallze. Total
sales 511,90ft share").
There was some profit taking In
speculative bends, but nt other points
In the list some strength was shown.
Total sales per value $1,705,000.
