-History of Cnrbondale Conclave,
Heptnsophs Archon P. J. Pow
derly, of tho Conclave, the Toast
master. Tho fraternal mid social spirit which
rules tho Improved Order of Hepti'i
nophs was lmpplly shown last night,
when the members of Carbondiile con
cln;e, and their guests, enjoyed them
selves In characteristic style tit u splen
did dlimer In the dining hall of the
Harrison house.
While nil tho gatherings vof Cnrbon
dale conclave are u, factor In fostering
tho spirit which innkes the neptusoplis
'-vlgototis, lust night's function can
justly claim more ciedlt for being n
means to the end of the UeptnsopliM
than any heretofore held under its aus
pices. It was n rarely enjoyable even-'
ing, and It Is eertuln to be a pleasant
topic of conversation at the conclave
meetings, and it is likewise certain to
be iv factor in" drawing closer the ties
that bind tho membeis In their iratcr
nnl relations.
Characteristic of Carbondale ton
clave, It extended Its hospitality to
neighboring conclaves and outside of
the order. The invitations extended
,bi ought as guests at the conclave's fes
tive board, Hon. James O'Neill, mayor
of Carbondale: a national officer of the
.Heptasophs, of Scranton, national pio
vost; William Corless, Scranton, ar
'chon of Electric City conclave; three
;Ulstrict deputies, C C. Donovan, esq.,
Scranton; James Allen, Peckvllle, and
James White, Archbald.
Tlie dinner was served at 9 o'clock,
after a pleasant exchange of greetings
'among the guests In the ante-room of
tho Harrison house. The dining hall
of the hotel was most Inviting. ' The
tables ran the length of the 100111, and
were tastefully decorated with palm".
The menu was served In characteristic
Harrison house style, which means
that the viands and service were all
that could be desired. The menu was:
Bouillon, fish, roast tin key, cranberry
F.iuce, roast beef, boiled ham, mashed
potatoes, mashed turnips, sweet peas,
chicken salad, lobster salad, egg salad,
pickled beetf, olives, celery. Ice cream,
.assorted cake, coffee. Appiopriate
washes went with the several dishes.
After the lighting of the H.ivanas, P.
J. Powdeily, archon of Carbondale
conclave assumed the role of toast
master, in which ho proved an exem
pl.tTy presiding ofllcer for a post-prau-dlnl
season.
Hon. James J. O'nell was the first
speaker. He made a characteristically
graceful and happy speech. He dwelt
particularly on how the Heptasophs
kept alive the sentiments and finer
feelings in tills practical and material
age.
C. O. Boland, national provost,
dwelt on the woik of the Heptasophs,
enthusiastically pointing out Its results
since its institution.
C. ( Mono van, who is never at a
iloss for a humorous story and whose
w it never deserts him kept his hearers
stirred while ho was on his feet.
John W. Dimock, whose wit and
humor uluays illuminates the gather
ing wheie cither is heard, proved nn
'enjoyable treat for the Heptasophs who
keenly appiec'iteed his effoi ts.
Addresses wore 'also made by James
White and James Acker.

three yeais, at a salary of $l,nno per

Suueilllti'lldent Garr was (hoseu with

A PROSPEROUS SOCIETY.
Washington Camp No. 200, P. O. S.
of A., Which Is Preparing for It's
Anniversary Celebration Brief
Hevlew of It's History.
Of all secret organizations of Car
bondale none at the present time is In
o. better condition than Washington
Camp, P. O. S. of A., No. 201), of Car
bondale, with a membership of nearly
200.
The weekly meets that are more
nearly what meetings should be;
social as well as instructive of the
principles of the order nie well attested
by the average attendance from week
to weelc.
The organization was effected about
14 years ago. Shoitly the camp will
hold one of their enjopyable anniver
saries in the camp loom, at which tlmo
they will be entertained by the band,
organized under its pationage. A band
although young In yp.ua proved Its
abilities in the senil-centeuni.il celebra
tion of the city last Sejileiubei.
During: the past six months the
camp laid six to eight membeis on the
sick loll. All of which were looked
after in the best possible manner. Dur
ing that time they had the misfortune
of losing two membeis by death.
Walter Hounds, having been killed
on the Delaware & Hudson rallioad
and Henry Perry who died of con
sumption. At the present time how
ever, all the membeis aie well with
the exception of O. W. Gardner who
Is Impioving.
Of the membeis to be accouled honor
for securing new recruits Kdwurd U
Stevens Is deserving of the most credit,
having proponed as many as five at
one meeting; with F. H. Smith as a
good second.
The officers are I. H. Colvln, presi
dent; O. O. Fidiani, vice president;
John Havencamp, master of forms;
Pert Durgee, past president; George A.
Crosby, recording secretary; F. H.
.Smith, financial secretary; Paul Ber
ton, treasuter.
Jlr. Perton is referred to by the mem
bers us the "watch-dog" of the treas
ury. Tills tenn is applied because of
Ids fidelity and his watchfulness. Mr.
Perton has filled this office since the
camp was instituted, fourteen yenis
ago, and It is conceded that no bet
ter man could be chosen.
FILIPINO BOLOS AND FLAG.
Interesting' Display of Relics in Park
Clothing House Window.
Theie is a display of Filipino relics in
the Main street window of the Park
Clothing store that Is attracting a good
deal of Interest.
The display is not only inleiestlng,
but it is highly instructive. It gives us
a good idea of the means of attack of
our waning neiglibois on the other
side of the earth in the Philippines,
where the United States soldier boys
are having some hot lighting. The dis
play is a collection of Filipino bolos,
which translated means as ugly a set
of swords and daggers that you would
t-irt to see. They are the pioperty of
Captain Thomas Jluipliy, the local rep-res-entatlve
of the Intel national Corre
spondent e schooN. Captain Murphy
took these ugly, but nevertheless inter
esting, weapons of war from tlie Philip
pines after his two jears'service of the
hardest kind or fighting. They aie be
ing exhibited in connect Inn with the
correspondence school's display of its
courses of study.
In tlie exhibition there are bolos fioin
every Island in the Philippines. Most
of them are about a foot long and have
wooden sheaths, iiio natives aie dex
terous and expert and, above nil, feroc
ious in the use of the sword-like knives
and terrible desti notion Is wrought to
the anatomy of the American soldier
when the Filipino can get close enough
to him before being wounded. Tho
weapon from the Island of Moro, where
the fierce engagement took place a few
days ago, Is much smaller than tlie
others, being in coinpai)sou not mora
than a big-sized dagger.
Perhaps the most Interesting of tlie
exhibit Is tho Filipino flag. It is red,
white and blue, about three feet squiuo.
Theio Is a tilunglo of white among- tho
tluee colors, on which there is a rlsing
sun. Tills is a symbol of the rising
generation, which typifies the men who
am carrying on the war. Tluee or four
crudely painted stars surround the sun.
This flag is rare, and it Is one of only
three known to be in this section.
These thrco were brought here by Cap
tain Murphy on his leturn from tho
Philippines,

TIMELY TOPICS.
Tho residents of Mnyfleld yard, con
tiguous to the "Cottage" arc viewing
with a good deal of apprehension the
extensions of the mine settlings In that
locallly,
Since Inst fall, what settlings have
occurred, has boon gradually creeping
towards Mnyfleld, which brings the
danger closer and closer to the "Cot
tage" and tho nest of dwellings south
of this old homestead. Tiic one of last
week, which by tho way was the most
disastrous of any, was In tho middle
of tho roadway at a point not more
than a hundred feet north of tho "Cot
tage." Tho cracks caused by tho dis
turbance extended as far ns the gate
opening Into tho big yard surrounding
this old landmark. This progressive
course of the mine falls gpes rise to
tlie fear that the next one will Involve
the old homestead. An there Is no
telling when or whore the next drop of
leal estate is to occur, the uneasiness
of property owners enn ,be readily ap
preciated. As to the remedy for these disturb
ances, there Is none. It appears that
tills evil of anthracite mining is one of
tho Incurable type. It Is certain that
there Is no redress at hand, so the best
that the nffectcd and Injured properly
owners can do is to mnko a virtue of
necessity and have ns big a quota of
good nature ns Is possible under such
aggravating circumstances. The policy
of the coal companies Is to got out tho
last pound of coal, without the least
thought of protection or recompense
for tho helpless owners of property.
The cave-In after cavo-ln that has oc
curred In the Mnyfleld yard section
during the past year has been costly
to several property owners, while the
Scranton Railway company has been
a heavy looser, as it's tracks have
been involved in nearly every cave-in.
Tho Consolidated Wuter company has
hud It's main supply pipe broken
three times, and the Ontario & West
ern load has been deprived of water
for it's shops as many times. Another)
phase of tho situation Is the menace
to drivers who have to use this
thoroughfare. On several occasions,
horses all but walked Into tho holes In
the roadway, and on Friday last when
the ground began to settle a street car
wan just entering the affected area,
and was only saved from being wreck
ed by the presence of mind and activ
ity' of the lnotorman in reversing and
backing the car out of the zone of
danger. Traffic, along this road has
been interrupted for days succeeding
a fall. These are a few of tlie num
erous effects of this apparently Ir
remediable mining evil, which is likely
to continue so long as the "robbing" of
pillars is in pi ogress.
The departtue of Terrenco V. Walker
from Carbondale for the West deprives
the city of one of It's hustling enter
prising young men, a young man
whose push and go-aheadativeness
when withdrawn fiom a community
Is sure to be missed.
Mr. Walker leaves for Chicago, today
where he will re-enter the service of
the Intel national Correspondence
schools-. His new position Is an ad
vanced one and the management of
the schools pay a. great compliment to
Mr. Walker's fitness and ability in
making the offer.
