FELICITOUS EVENT.
The Volunteer Firemen Commended

Andrew Mitchell Hose Company.
.Jl Stag Party That Was a Great
Success Banquet Followed by a
Season of Good Cheer.
Lust night was mi uvenlftit "tie In the
history of the Andrew Mitchell Hose
company o Ciirhondnle, one ot Cai
bondnlo's two stalwart and valiant vol
unteer lire companies, of which she is
so proud.
The occasion was the tenth anniver

thfit are linked by deeds of sacrifice
and valor that shed Rlory on the ca
reer of the volunteer lire lads.
,11 was ii most felicitous event, and It
will mark an epoch In the history ot
the company, which will have wood
reason to recall the nlsht that the tenth
anniversary was observed. It was nn
important and eventful nlsht for two
reasons. It was an occasion that fit
tingly remembered the venerable citi
zen, Andrew Mitchell, nrter whom the
company was named, and it was the
means of revealing1 the Importance of
the factor that the company has been
since the organization. Secondly, it
was an occasion ot raie social enjoy
ment, an affair that bi ought together a
splendid gathering of farboudalc'H
sons, over 100'guests being present a1io
represented the professions anil the
highest type of citizenship that the city
can boast of. It is rare that there can
be found such a representation of the
city's life as graced last night's assem
bly. Hvery branch of the cltv govern
ment was represented fiom the execu
tive to Iho humblest public sei vant.
This circumstance alone ought to bo of
the gieatest satisfaction to the .Mitchell
boys.
As to the hospitality, it was of the
characteristic Mitchell company type.
This means It was warm-hearlod and
'generous, and that there were no fillls
in dealing it out to the guests. There
was no .stilting, no l'onnnlity: a le
freshing lieedom sun minded the guests
and they mingled with an air of we-feel-quite-nt-home,
from the time they
exchanged greetings on enteiing until

Memoiial park Is trying imrd to force
a smile of spiiug, though It Is not re
ceiving much assistance or encourage
ment from Old Sol. However, theie
is a suspicion 'of a smile In the big cli
cular bed at the eastern end of the
p.uk. The tulip bulbs that Parkkeeper
Kichurd Cdey planted a few days ago
have already pushed 'their heads above
ground. The moisture of the past few
days has greatly accelerated their
giowth and many of ilium are a
healthy and pleasing sight, With a few
rays of sum-hine, which are not far
off, they would begin to bud, and In a
few days more, a bed of color would
lellect the first smile of spiing. The
grass In the pari: grows higher each
day and some of the smaller bushes are
beginning to show buds.
ft wont be but a very few days now
until the park will be In the first stage
of the beauty with which It greets C.u
bondalians from the bright spring time
until the melancholy days of fall.
It would be quite timely now for
Common Councilman Whitfield to res
ui'pct the general sidewalk oidlnance
which he Introduced In council some
weeks ago, but which was not given
the reception to which it was certulnly
entitled.
The backwardness of Carbondule In
the matter of sidewalks Is so patent
that it would be more humorous than
sensible to debate upon tho truth of
such a condltloif. While a good deal
was done last year by City Knglneer
Kupp In compelling property owners
to lay sidewalks, over a mile of flag
Ing being laid, he was not empoweied
to enfoi co the genet ul carrying out of
these Improvements, Improvements
that are u crying necessity. Theie was
needed a general ordinance, like the ono
prepared and Introduced by Mr, Whlt
lleld, but later uneeririonlously set
aside, Hut why this attitude towards
such mi Important and leasonablo
meusure no one could or can appuient
ly explain,
The ordinance Is far from being un
reasonable. It piovldes that side
walks be laid on all streets of the city,
the size of the Hug In different localities
being specified, where the grade 1ms
been established and accepted by tho
city, Mr. Smith cannot go ahead and
lay sidewalk in front of his property,
while his neighbor contents himself
with u mud hole, The reform must
be consistent, If theie Is an ungraded
stieet, tho propuity owneis should peti
tion councils to have the thoroughfare
graded. After the grade has been ac
cepted by the city, It Is obligatory upon
the property owneis to sjdewalk the
street. Hut no step can be taken until
the property owners, that Is a majority
of them, have sxpressed their willing
ness. It is plain, therefoie, that theio
Is nothing wiong about tho measure,
It simply paves the way for a general
carrying nit out of an Impiovemcnt
that Is one jf the biggest factors In a
city's grogress. Without well-paved,
well lighted and well hept streets, no
city ,can inove forward, but without
iVopi, It can easily enough retrograde,
The Tribune heartily commends Mr.
Whitfield's measure to the new coun
cils, both nt the behest I of Its own
judgment und f.f numeious property
owners who appreciate the need of
such an ordinance.
Speaking of improvements, recalls the

possibility that the property owners
along Parle avenue will see realised this
summer the changes which they have
waited for with patience and long
suffering for years. A petition asking
for the impioveinent died with one of
the old councils, not last year's though,
and since then until the big flood of this
year, the project has come downward.
The damage which followed from the
flooding this year, was due In a meas

Auxious thoughts sometimes perplex
the wife who sees maternity before her.
If she is treading an untried path, she
sometimes frets herself into a nervous
condition which is injurious anil pros
trating. If motherhood has already been
n painful experience she is apt to shrink
from the coining trial ami by Jier very
mental anxiety mcrease thej possibility
of her suffering,
There is no cuise for anxiety for those
prospective mothers who use Dr, Pierce's
b'avorite Prescription. It trantjuilies
the nerves, encourages the appetite, in
duces refreshing sleep and produces
mental cheerfulness as well as physical
vigor. It gives strength and muscular
elasticity so that the baby's advent is
practically painless. It is the best tonic
for nursing mothers.
"I am m thankful for what rr. Pierce's fa
vorite Prescription lias done for me,"' writes Mrs.
John T. Smith, of Slocati, 111 It. Col., llox 50. "It
helped me through the loug months Ixforc baby
came and 1 bnvc a his, btront; tuby girl, the
most healthy uf the three, ami it cured me of a
disease which was taklug away all my strength."

DAVIS-PETERS.
T,wo Popular Carbondale Young
People Married Last Evening.
The Baptist parsonage last evening
was the scene of a quiet wedding, when
Mr. Henry N. Peters and Miss Sarah
Davis, were united In marriage.
The ceremony was performed by Rev.
H. J. Whnlen, D. D assisted by Rev.
Ernest Melville, pastor of St. James'
Episcopal church, of Fort Edward, N.
Y., a guest at the parsonage. They
were unattended.
The bride was gowned In a beautiful
brown bronzed silk, with trimmings oi
white-tucked silk, brown velvet, and
white npplque. She wore a hat of
beautifully delicate cream straw, and
white kid gloves. She is the only
daughter of our well-known townsman
Daniel M. Davis, a member of the
Berean Baptist church, and an active
worker In the several depaitnients of
the church's work.
Tho groom Is one of the most highly
esteemed among Carbondale's young
men, and holds a. responsible position
among the conductors of the Delaware
& Hudson Railroad company. After
the ceremony, they were driven at once
to their nicely furnished home, In the
Oliver house, No. SS Wyoming street,
wheie a. lecoption was given to near
relatives and friends. A large circle
of friends will extend' heartiest good
wishes to these young people as they
set out on life's journey.
A rather pleasing accompalnment was
the fact that at the hour of the cere
mony, tho lecture audience was as
sembling at the church, and a large
circle of the young people were gather
ed at the gate to receive the young
couple us they arrived, and shower
them most bountifully with lice as they
departed In 11 highly decorated caniaRe
for their new home.

Taking' Desperate Chances.
It Is true that many contract slight
colds and recover from them without
taking any precaution or treatment,
and a knowledge of this fact leuds
otheis to take their ehunees instead of
giving their colds tho needed attention.
It should be borne In mind that every
cold weukens tho lungs, lowers the
Vitality and makes tho system less uble

which Mrs. McGowan would have to
appear against her husband to serious
ly accuse him, It was announced to
Judge Edwards that the couple were
now re-united and seemingly forgetful
of those happenings. When it was
further represented to the court that
Mrs. McGowan had no Intention to
appear now, tho cases were marked
nol prosse and the costs placed on the
county.
In disposing of the matter, Judge
Edwards took occasion to pay a com
pliment to Constable Edward Neary, o
this city, for his promptness la having
his cases ready for trial when called,
and ot his good judgment In disposing
of cases when the ends ot justice might
bo served without going to the expense
and delay of a trial.
In explanation It might be mentioned
that the prosecution of the cases rested
largely with the constable. He appre?
elated the circumstances, however, and
urged the disposition of the cases that
was afterwards made by the court,
