Postmaster Thomas' Good News.

The Tribune has been IlKhlhiK for will

councils Klve some show or sincerity
about nniuliiK the streets and number
liiK tlie lioiises and tnkliiR such oilier
steps as will lve t'arhondale an Intei
liKeiil streel system, or at leapt one
that will be si 'i linpioveinetit on the

l'ostinaster Thomas, who has endeav
ored to have such a system established
ever since his coming Into otlic, ex
ert Ins inan.v an earnest endeavor in
this direction, has been promised by
Postal Inspector McCoy that ho will
do all in his power to gel I'or Carbon
dale another carrier, provided that
councils prove that they are sltieeie in
the promise and effort to name the
streets and number the houses
The carrier hoped I'or will not be
mounted, but will h afool This Is the
best available at the present time as
the appropriation is almost exhausted.
If the work of establishing tlie street
system be carried out a mounted ear
lier will likely hi' granted In .Inly next,
the beginning of tlie Usual jour.
I'ost master Thomas expects lo hear
from the department on Uec. '.'. as to
whether or not the additional foot car
rler, which will be a great help, will
be allowed.
In the meantime It icsts with coun
cils as to whether or not tlie mall ser
vice of tlie town will be Improved, or
ir Ihe discrimination from which hun
dreds of residents suffer daily will be
removed. 11 Is hoped that Ihe long
looked for co-operation I'or which
Postmaster Thomas has striven, will be
shown by councils.

TOWN TOPICS.
Tlie proposed removal or dosl ruction
of two old buildings of Carbondale. the
Lindsay .t K.irlj. foundry ami She okt
rink on South Main street, the former
a landmark of the town, recalls the
history of both of I hose places, which
Is of Interest nnd which j-on can hear
discussed here and there about town.
The Tribune has related the history
of the Lindsay it Karly plain, which,
gislug way lo Hit inarch of progress,
is about le be dismantled. II was In
the MO's. long before Carbondale be
came a city, when the little log cabin,
the llrsi house in Carbondale. was oul.v
a few years old, that the Lindsay .t
early fouudrj was llrst built. It was
used llrsl as a grist mill and later
converted into a stove foundry. Tho
spirit of competition was not rite in
the prosperous days of this concern,
and there was no need of oxlcnsivi.
Improvements, or even additions.
So, today the buildings which are
now disintegrating and falling into
ruins, are almost the same as they
were a half century or more ago. The
work of demolishing what remains of
the old plant will bo a light task, for
what Is standing now is a mere shell
of late months, the greatest watch
fulness had to be emploj'ed the nights
the cupola was tired, as the decaying
timbers of the foundry building were
like Under, and the least overheating
meant a blaze. During tlie .summer
months tlie hose companies were called
out al regular intervals to sta.v the
flames that threatened an end to (he
old landmark, before Its owners wore
readv lo t nil the last chapter of its
history.
An important historical Incident of
Interest linked with the old foundry is
tho use of the boiler of the llrst loco
motive run in America, the "Stour
bridge lion." which made its initial trip
between llouesdale and Carbondale.
Stuart - Mitchell, the former the
father of City Solicitor Stuart, tlio kil
ter, Andrew Mitchell, who survives
and is a pi eminent resident of Carbon
dale. were tin. predecessors of Lind
say it Karly. They acquired posses
sion of the old boiler after tho famous
locomotive was abandoned and dis
mantled. It did service for some time,
bul when Mr. Karly came into the
Prni tho boiler was found to bo Inade
quate and il was replaced. At present
it is m Washington, lu the Smithson
ian Institute, as a loaned exhibit, it
still being owned by Lindsay - Karlj
The old rink, which will soon dis
appear, was erected about fifteen years
ago, when the roller skating craze was
at its height. The whole country was
swept hy lids fud, and lis devotees
could be counted b.v the thousands.
Car'oondal" was among the places thus
allllcted, and to meet tlie popular de
mand the rink was buill.
II wasn't but a few years until skat
lug began lo he abused as a pastime
and was attended 'by numerous evils
This caused n to lie banished as n
pleasuie. with denunciations of all
sons heaped upon it. Tlio big rink
here, though it was probably profitable
whllo tho craze hail hold of the people,
proved as big an elephant on the hands
of the owiieis as did tlie Lackawanna
and Arcadian rinks in Serauton, tho
former of which Is now an Immense
wagon and bhtcksmlthiiig shop: the
latter, a bottling works.
At this time, the link began Its
changeful career. Amusements of
various sorts followed In Hi" wake of
roller .skating, Foot races, walking
mutches and other athletic contests
were Introduced, bul the von turps were
not Hourly s-o successful as hoped fur.
Tills lead lo the abandonment of (lie
hull or rink purl of the building, save
for Us occupancy by an tithlollo club,
composed of young men of the town,
showed sporting tendencies,
Tlie owners, lo recoup tlemiiioivps,
