NEW BUSINESS BLOCK
AND BANQUET HALL
.W. W. Watt Arranging for tile
Construction of a Splendid Build
ing1, That Will Be n Creditable
Addition to Carbondale The
Plans.
llids are belli? sought for the splen
did business block which V. Watt
pioposes to erect at the rear of his
present commodious building on North
Church street.
The now building will be three
stories and besides containing abun
dant room for business purposes It will
have a banquet hall that It is' proposed
to make one of the finest In this sec
tion. This will be on the third floor.
The floor space will be GOxTfi feet. A
great platform or stage 10x20 will be
at tho end of the hall. The seating
i-upacity will be i00. The hall will ac
comodate the most ambitious public
production and will likewise bcadupt
.il to private affaiis, banquets and the
like. All tho materials and the ap
pointments will be the best.
The. present hall will be reconstructed
and will be' better .adapted than .ever
to dancing parties. A new door will
take the place of tho present one.
The second floor of t,he pew building
wil probably bo lltted for a oluti with
a gymnasium attached. The .section of
the old building now occupied by the
First M. IS. church congregation will
be remodeled with ollices. In the new
hall on the top floor the want of a
large banquet hull, which has been
sorely felt in Carbondale, will be sup
plied. The entrance to the second and
third floors of the building will be
from Chmch street as at present.
The busines portion of the new build
ing will bo occupied, on the first floor
by Keese Brothers, the S.ilem avenue
merchants. This will give them one
of the finest wareiouni in the valley.
Jlr. Watt's shows highly commend
able entei prise in tills venture and the
construction of the proposed building
will be a pleasing factor in tho town's
progresss.
SUSQUEHANNA DOG WON.
Six Hundred Dollars Taken from
1 Scrnntou Sports at Pittston.
The dog fight at Pltthtun-which was
mentioned in yesterday's Tribune at
tracted 11 crowd of Honesdale, Susque
hanna, Carbondale and Scranton sports
that crowded the "speakeasy" in
Browntown, where the two dogs chew
ed at each other.
Tho tight was not what the spoits
would cull a warm one; it was only
fair. The dog that was born lii
Iloruellsville, N. Y., raised In Susque
hanna and ttalned in Carbondale, was
away too much for the scrapper from
A Vest Seranton. On the way to the
Fcene of the light, the bluster of the
Scrnnton delegation almost frightened
the Horuesville-SiiMiuehnniiu-Curbon-dale
men, but when the dogs were led
Into the pit, thero wasn't a cent of
Scrnntou money around at any odds.
Bets from this end of tho Hue had
to go a-begging.
When the dogs were set on each
other, the Susquehamiu-Curboudulo
bull had his own way and got first
"scratch" on the Scrnnton quarter.
Throughout, the latter got the worst of
the chewing, while the fighter .of sev
eral houiofl had only a sllglit scinteh on
his brs':bronr'nose.
The purse was $100, and tho gate
1110119'! --This tho .sports from here
took away with them, together with all
tho money tho Serantou lads would
ilnro ilsk on their growler. Perhaps
5700 was transferred to the pockets ot
the Susquehanna and Carbondalo men,
mostly to tho roriper".
Tho elated crowd returned (o Car
bondalo on tho a o'clock train yester
day morning, with their lighting victor.
The dozen Susquehanna and Ilorues
vlllo men went homo on the KrJe flyer
yesterday forenoon. ' ,

TOWN TOPICS.
It's a rare attraction, "Tho Bonnie
Brier Bush," which Manager Byrne
presents nt the Orand on Mondny night,
nnd It Is hoped that there will be an
appreciation of 11 dramatic offering ot
such rarity as will not give the city n
black eye, as It were, on Its reputation
us 11 good theatrical town.
1 AVIthout exposing ltrelf to tho charge
of extravagance, Tho Tribune can aver
that this will be the best thing In the
dramatic lino that Carbondallans will
see In many a day; and It can bo safely
said that no production given thus far
in Carbondale has commenced to ap
proach the excellence, of J. II. Stod
durt and his "Bonnie Brier Bush."
AVillluin AVlntor, the New York Trib
une dramatic critic, declares that "Tho
Bonnie Brier Bush" "transcends any
thing ever seen on the American
stage." Such an opinion us this is an
assurance of the dramatic value of the
play that Is coming to Carbondale.
Aside from this, It will be quite a rare
privilege to enjoy the acting of J. H.
Stoddnrt, who Is the oldest actor on tho
American stage who Is active through
out the season, Of course, It Is Mr.
Stoddart's acting which is tho feature
of the play, acting Mint in some of
its shading and sidelights has not been
seen on the American stage in many a
day. In the light of nil these hnppy
and rare circumstances, a titling re
ception should be given Mr. Stoddnrt
on Mondny night. .
It was during the pelting rain ot
Tuesday afternoon. A liilddle-aged wo
man was going up Park Place. She
had no umbrella and she had her skirts
picked up as far as far as permissible.
She was hurrying along, and those who
saw her from nearby windows were led
to observe that nothing would stop her
until she reached home. But to err is
human. These observers forgot that
there was 11 millinery store further
along tho street. AVlien the hurrying
woman reached the millinery store she
raised her head and saw the display
or summer hats, flowers, etc., in tho
window. Instantly she halted, clutched
a firmer hold on her skirts, drew closer
to tho window and there, In the dash
ing rain, with unprotected form, she
took a. satisllecl look at the bright things
of tho milliner's taste.
Such is the rare forre or attraction
of a milliner's window on a passing
woman.
There was a grateful response AVed
nesdny to tho welcome ruin -of -Tuesday..
The swelling buds on . the trees and
mtslies, invited by tho genial sunshine,
burst nnd unrolded their brightest
smiles of-green. The shy and backward
blossoms, multiplied wonderfully, and
altogether it was the Hist genuine day
of spring In this section this year.
.Memorial riai-k, Carbo'ndale's beauty
spot, took on a. brighter hue, ahd the
tulip bed at tho e.ist end was just radi
ant with Its crimson, white and yellow.
This beautirul triangular garden of na
tuie was at Its best and gave its ad
mirers a delightful foretaste of the of
ferings with which it will regale our
residents this spring and nummer. Un
der the care of Park Keener Itlchard
Udy, It can be depended upon to bo a
grateful sight during the year.
Apropos ot Memorial park, it might
be suggested that tho fence surround
ing it is again agitating more than a
few minds. AVe appreciate tho senti
ment in the park board that will not
brook the suggestion that the fence be
removed, but to balance this feeling
there Is a widespread wish that the
iron enclosure bo taken down, theieby
removing the air of privnev or exclu
sion that surrounds this beauty spot.
This Idea of the park being a sort of
private ownership holding is shared not
alone by Carbondallans, but it Is the
Impression of strangers who visit tho
city for tho first time that the park is
noc a puuno one. The strong, though
ornamental fence that encloses tho tri
angular spot removes the suggestion ot
a public park, and It is the rule, not the
exception, to hear these visitors ob
serve: "It's a vonrtcr they don't take
Mint fence down: it looks kind of
strange to see a fence nround a park."
This and similar observations can be
heard frequently during the summer
season amdng the town's visitors. It
is a characteristic of the American citi
zen to see 1111 air or freedom surround
ing everything that Is his, uud this,
perhaps, Is what gives rise to the op
position to the park fence. It Is cer
tain that If the fence, with its forbid
ding gate, were removed that the puik
would bo visited by more persons than
it is now, and It would thus servo to a
greater extent tho purpose of Its cre
ation. Many n visitor hesitates to en
ter the place thrnugh timidity, based
on the belief that the park is private
property. AVith Mia unpopular fence
removed this Impression would ko
with It.
The familiar Mght or the old blind
man who keeps a dally station at clly
hall corner during tho mild weather Is
another Indication that the pleasant
dnys nro with us.
The lesson 'of patience that this sorely
aflllcted man leaches the passing
throng is 0110 calculated to make 0110
ashamed who Is surrounded with tho
ordinary blpsslngs of life that ho is de
nied him. Kvery day. while tho wmiih.
er penults, ho has a seat ut Mils coiner,
keeping u lonely vigil, ns It were, on
tho charity of the passersby, too many
of whom are forgetful of his needs. Ho
has no one to cheer his lonely moments,
but ho putH up with. his lot with a res
ignation that Is heroic. The dropplnr
or a coin in his little tin cup biuoly
docs not call for much of a sacrlllce on
tho part of those who travel this cor
ner, while tho sounds or the tingling
coin ns It rolls uriuuid tho cup Is sweet
muslo to the blind man und his depend"
ent llttlo ones. At tho tamo time It
reminds tho poor man Mint tho spirit
or helpf ulnesa towards otlieis still lives.
The anthraclto mining situation Is
bothering more Mian thu coal barons
and tho United Mlno AVorkers' lenders.
There are men hero In Carhondule, in
well ns throughout the coal regions who
take a vital Interest In the issue. This,
or course, leads to any number of ani
mated discussions almost dally. You
ran hear them wherever you go. Sonn,
nre Interesting, some nro ludicrous, uud
some- nre well they nro so so. You
can call this ono whatever you enro to.
He Is one of those who can Use "words
of learned length nnd thundering
sound" even If they nre ns misplaced
as those ot Mrs. Malaprop und the
Cleorgln cracker whom Mr. Kltnbnll so
aptly describes. "There hain't going to

had buttonholed him, "Alt the miners

punles will give them these concussions,
I know tlicy will. The miners Just nsk

OLD TIME CARBONDALE.
Early Days Recalled by Pnpor Re
ceived by J. J. Joslin.
When tho announcement wna made a
fewnlays ago ot the happy fact that
our vonciablo townsman, J. J. Joslln,
had celebrated his 85lh birthday an
niversary, It was followed by numerous
congratulations.
Accompanying ono from abroad was
a copy of Tho Carbondalo Journal of
ISM, sent by a resident of AVntlvllle,
who heard of Mr. Joslln's rare birth
day happening In The Tribune. The
old paper, which was published be
fore Carbondalo became a city, Is high
ly appreciated by Mr. Joslln. It con
tains some quaint advertisements.
Among those ot general Interest Is a
for sule "nd," Inserted by David
Hockley, offering for salo the Main
street property now occupied by the
Peoples and Graham's Shoe stores, nnd
the livery In tho rear. The price asked
was $1,100. As Interesting compurlson
It might bo mentioned that today the
yearly rental for the business block
alone Is about the figure that was
asked for the land at that time. $1,400.
Another interesting advertisement Is
from tho Deluware & Hudson com
pany which tells of Its proposed In
crease of capital stock by ono and a
hnlt million dollars, In contemplation
of extensive improvements nnd con
tinued extensions. The advertisement
also states, ns a sort ot Inducement
to prospective buyers, that the next
semi-annual dividend will be declared
for S per cent. These are a. few of the
Interesting Items of this half century
old Carbondule paper, which Mr. Joslln
has placed among his numerous treas
ured historic relics of Carbondale.
AN EXCITING EXPERIENCE.
Manager Carl Roessigcr of the
Krantz Browing Company Hurt.
Carl Hoessiger, manager of tho
Krnnl. biewery of the Pennsylvania
Central Browing company, in Mils city,
had nn exciting and dangerous ex
perience with u frightened horse yes
terday afternoon.
Mr. Koesslger was driving a buggy
down Soutli Church street, with his
daughter beside him. The shaft be
coming loosened, frightened tho horse
which made a wild dash down the
street. Mr. Itoesslger stirred himself
and grasping n closer hold on the reins
began to see-saw tho animal, which
was wildly aroused, and was tearing
down tho street. The horse sec-sawed
its course, coming so close to the curb,
tho the alarmed passerby were fear
ful every moment of a collision and a
spill of the occupants of the carriage.
Mr. Iloesslger's presence or mind and
his determination backed by his
physical strength relieved himself and
his daughter or the peril that surround
ed them, and In front of the Hob.m
property the animal was brought to a
standstill.
The happening which fortunately end
ed without disaster, caused' somewhat
of a stir along Church street.
WELL SITUATED.

SCOTT CAME BACK.
The Man AVho Sprinted fiom Alder
man's Office Settles, Up,
The second and closing chapter of
Kdwurd Scott's lightening dash and
escape from Alderman Morrlsun's olllce
can be wiilteu now.
.Scott came back yesterday and
squared himself with his majesty, the
law. He dUV not come personally to
Alermun Morrison's olhce, but ho
sent u duly accredited agent who satls
lled the claims against him. Scott, it
wil be recalled, shot out of Alderman
Morrison's olllce a few days ago, while
awaiting n hearing for obtaining goods
fiom a merchant under nlleged false
roptesentutlons. He slipped Constable
Martin Cardon In llghtenlng-llke order.
Now, however, if he cares to pay n
filendly call to the alderman's olllce
he will bo unmolested, as the settle
ment of yesterday brings him back
Into tho court's good graces.
