THE DEATH OP THE NEWS.
Oarbondnlo's Penny Evening News
paper Expires After a Hard Eight.
The Evening News hns discontinued
publication. Its last edition was given
to the nubile on YVednustlny cvcnlsii?,
eind at that time nothing was mild in
its coluiniiM, nor was thete any Indi
cation that It had 1 cached the end of
,its ciueer. Ycstetdny morning the
preen shades upon the fiont window.!
woio not raised at the oustomary hour,
nnd In a short time the tumor spread
that a landlord's wnimnl hid been
fceived upon the office foice. Whether
this is correct or not could not be
learned. "Wednesday evening the fol

of the fortunes of his new investment.
A few weeks ago Mr. Heine left this
city with hi family, and Illinois be
gan to circulate as to the .stability of
the paper. Tho emplo.es, however,
iMine to tho lescue and kept the paper
going, and about twro weeks ago It be
gan to look as It their efforts might be
bucce&sful. J. Noimal Colder and Mat
thew Muipliv, in the shoit time they
hteered the destinies ot the decliulna:
paper, rrijyle a success of it in an edi
loiial way. Mr. Oelder is a newspaper
man of experience, and Ml. Mmphy
also is diligent with his pen, and be
tween them and J. P. Lottus, mine
superintendent for the Delawaie and
Hudson company, who has been a laige
contilbutor to the edltoiinl columns,
the News has been a biilllant paper for
the past fortnight. Uut handicapped by
inadequate facilities and limited finan
cial backing, the stialn was too gieat,
nnd tho Nows -was compelled to shut
down. It is said the employes kept tho
paper going, expecting Mi. Fiey to
onio to Caibondale to make some defi
nite an-angements lor its continuance,
but tailing to do so they lefused to
woik lungci.
Mr. Gelcler has alieady become .'ifllli
ated with tho reportoiial dep.utmentof
the Leader, and unquestionably his tal
ents will be discerned soon by an in
tieasod volume ot local news published
in that paper. The Leader last even
ing had this comment 011 the demise of
its contempoiaiy:
"The stalling of a lively Caibondale
page in The Scianton Tiibune, thus
giving tills city lituallv a moining
paper, was beginning to dhlde the p.t
tionage of newspaper icadeit In such
ft manner that It was seen by the
owner of the News that its fiuther con
ilnuancc would be only at a consldei
nble financial loss."

An Unttily City Ouest.
The city of Cnrbondale had a now
transient tiodtdcr In Its bnstllc yester
day moining. Although fiio ftccdom of
the city had not been ptesented to hint
foimally, ho pioccctled lo act upon the
theory that this town Is a wido-onen
affair and It was his duty to enliven
things. With this object In view, he
caused a notable diminution In the sup
ply of liquids exposed for sale in n.
number of the places devoted to tho
lcficshmeiit of tho weaiy tinveter, and
then set out to hoop things up In an
enthusiastic manner. Olllcer Hell was
among tlio whom he cncotinteietl in
his s-.Ig-zitgfry loute, and tho policeman
hulled him, 'bi ought him to and con
voved him to a place whcio ho could
rest in pence and solitude.
lie did not seem inipicssod with the
simplicity of the architecture in his
new loom, nor the wav In which the
daylight stiuggled through the ono
window, so he ptoceeded to change the
aspect of the panes and had piogiessetl
so fat as to demolish three when ho
was quickly yanked out and put Into n
datk cell.
At 10 o'clock Mumii Kllpalilek oplit"d
that he had had about Ihe dollats'
woith of run. The boarder did not think
so, but that was ot no inateilnl ac
count. Not having his check book with
him he offeiod a watch n a substitute,
and his honor accepted It as seonllv
for a V. Then he w.indoud slo,ly
nwav with his joy and eMiln'tant ver
bosity subdued.

last evening.
The family lesido in a double house
and at about half past five o'clock
Mis. itolls went next door to enqulie
alter her neighbor, Mrs. Wm. Deakln,
who Is setiously ill. Besides the child
mentioned another child 2 years of
age and Mis. Bolls' sister, a ghl of
l:; years of age was in the house when
Mis. Bolls went next door. She had
only been theie a lew moments when
she heaid the heaitiendlng ciles of
the jounger child and hastening to
investigate the cause she was horrified
xipon opening the door to discover tho
whole room nltjlure. Sli at once
seized tho younger child whose clothes
w el e on 111 e and cai i led It outside. By
this time Neighbors weio at)tiacted
and search was mnde for the other
clilldien. The sister had managed to
get safely nut but tho Ittle boy could
not be found.
In tho meantime an alaim was
turned In fiom box ft which is acioss

on tho burning building. As soon ns

was dead and had 'been horribly
binned fiom head to foot. The le
mnlns were taken to Undertaker Bat
