"To these mountains," writes Nick, "I,
v mild have to roler you to Oliver Gold
smith, where he says, in 'The Deserted
VIIIhu-c'!-'' '
'Those matted woods, where birds for
get to sing.
And drowsy bats in clumsy cluster
cllns:
Where, at each step, the stranger fears
to iwakc
The rattling terror of the vengeful

"This is as pood n description as I
could give, for rattlesnakes are as'thlck
as grasshoppois; but they are harm
lessif you keep a safe distance from
them.
"Pat Itooncy and Jimtnle Grier had
an encounter with, one of the Inhabit
ants of the mountains that they call
now. what do they call them? ' Oh, yes!
Grlzxly bears. AVe have so many wild
things here, a man Is apt to get wild
himself trying to lemember and dodge
them. Had it not been for big Mart
McAndrew, .who ftom the lookout came
to their assistance with an axe and
soon conquered the foe, we might be
in mourning at this writing.
"There was great rejoicing in camp,
when they brought in their trophy.
Grier, in describing the combat, said
he would rather tackle Radigan any
.time than old grizzly.
"As for music, c have bear, rattle
," snakes, wild cats and whip-o'-wills.
There are sixteen Carbondale boys
here, all working and in good health.
There is plenty of work in, this part of
the country if a man wants it. Our
motto is, 'Work, Eat and Sleep ' This
is as good as any, when we're ninety
five miles from civilization; in thp very

boys intend to stay until after the
strike and perhaps some will cpmo
back milllonoiios. Wages are between

hotel in any part of the country. Of

TWO SMALL-POX GASES.
Another Member of Thompson Fam
ily Taken Down Dr. Houser, of
Scranton, Confirms Diagnosis.
There are now two cases of smallpox
In Carbondale.
The second ease was discovered yes
terday. The victim Is another of the
Thompson family. His name Is Thomas
Thompson, aged fourteen, The physi
cian temporarily In charge of the other
case observed symptoms of the younger
Thompson yesterday, which on closer
Investigation proved tho case to be one
of varilold.
The ease of the older Thompson Is
progressing. Ho was somewhat more
sick last hight, but is not in a danger
ous condition.
There is no doubt liow that both eases
are genuine sipallpqx, though not of a
virulent type. Dr. J. W. Houser, of
Taylor, who is in "..charge of all the
cases In Scranton, came to Carbondale
yesterday afternoon, and after visiting
the Thompson home, on Hospital street,
and examining both patients, ho un
hesitatingly confirmed the Carbondale
physician's diagnosis. There was no
doubt in his mind, Dr. Houser said,
that both young men have smallpox.
The house has been carefully' quar-.
antlncd by -Sanitary, Policeman Moflltt
and all the members' of the' family, to
gether with those who associated with
the Thompson family just prior to the
outbreak, have been carefully vaccln
atpd. ',' '
As yet no physician has been appoint
ed to take care of "the cases, that is, to
devote himself exclusively to watching
and administering tq the patients. The
absence of the board of health is le
sponslble for this deplorable condition.
Owing to the powers peculiar to the
board of health bodies, both councils
and the mayor are circumscribed in
their action. Select council In the
meantime Is being looked to to meet at
once to act on tho names sent In by
Mayor O'Neill several months ago. Ac
tion, prompt and effective. Is necessary
to meet this possible epidemic of small
pox, and lf select council falls to do Its
duty, then it is likely that steps will
bo taken to compel the members to ac
tion who are responsible for blocking
the means of dealing with the danger
ous situation that confronts the city.
BABY SHOW A SUCCESS.
Seventy Babies Entered The Ven
ture Agreeably Disappointed the
Ladies in Charge The Winners.
The babv show which the Ladies'
guild of Trinity church undertoook with
some misgiving, but to which, they ad
dicssed themselves with characteristic
resolution and vigor, took place yes
terday In tho uaiifch house and was a
splendid succos-s. It was one of the
most Interesting enterprises ever under
taken by tho ladies and they feel
doubly gratified over the results. In
the first pUri'O it wns most interesting
and entertaining, affording a rare
afternoon to the workers and the na
tions; secondly, It was a source of con
siderable revenue for the guild treas
ury. Sixty-six babies were on show. This
number was enteied, but there were
many more cute, Interesting little ones
prcs-ent, whose age, being over tho two
year limit, debarred them.
Avium the little ones were ures-entod
by their mothers at the door, tho
judss, Mesdames AV, J. Baker, Stephen
AA'liitmoro and J. D. Stocker, 'welched
each one, and pinned on tho exhibit
number. Afterwards tame the Interest
ing work of deciding who of the babes
merited the four prizes that were of
fered. After a careful survey, It might
he said a period of mlinlratlon of tho
babies, the judges awurded the prizes,
as follows:
First Prize An order for one dozen
baby portraits, donated by F.oster. This
was for tho prettiest baby and was
awarded to John Bussell Pilce.uson of
Mr, and Mrs. fieeso Price, of Park
si reef, ,
Second Prize Sliver spoon, Aw.arded
to son of Sir, and Mrs. AVIllIam 'Alex
ander, of AVnynpj street, as the fattest
baby, This baby was not the fattest In
the show, but the fattest in proportion
to Its age, which was three mouths, It
was the ago which guided the Judges
In their decision.
Third Prize Silver mug, flncsf tpeci
meuj twins pti.e. Awarded to babes of
Mr, and Mis. M.0, Abbey, of Terrace
street.
The winner of the fourth prize, a
celluloid silver rattle, was accidentally

Crescents Defeat Carbondale Team in
Fine Game by Score of 8-4.
The snappiest, most Kinsery, fastest,
in short the best same of the season
was played on Duffy's field yesterday
afternoon when the Crescents redeemed
themselves after the defeat of last
week, by winning oiit against the Car
bondale team No. 2, by the score of 8-4.
The game was so closely contested
that it was not until the Crescents got
the last man out in the ninth inning
that they called the game theirs.
In bestowing credit for the victory, no
man can claim the 'lion's share. It
was a game In which everybody had a
chance to distinguish himself. There
was good batting, there was sharp field
ing and there was daring base running.
There was splendid jvork la the pitch
er's box on both sides. McAndrew, of
the Crescents, was in exceptionally good
form, the best he has been this season,
lie had the heaviest batters of the year
against him, but he mowed down four
teen of the Carbondale team. Richard
Fleming, who came all the way from
Archbald to help the Carbondalians to
victory, if possible, did well, exceedingly
well, but was unfortunate In having the
hits against him made when men were
on bases. One or two fielders' errors
on long' hits made the runs count
against him.
The gilt-edge ball that was put up
has rarely been equalled here in an am
ateur game, and the L',000 rooters had
chances galore to applaud and become
excited. The game fairly abounded in
star plays, but the one thatv over
reached them all, that falrjy electrified
the cranks was the sensational catch of
a fly in deep centie by nimble-footed
Will Hull. Emniett laced one out that
every one guessed would be lost. Hull
started away and ran like a deer after
the sailing sphere. No one dreamed he
would ever come near it. But Hull
chased after It, jumped in the air, al
most turning a back somersault. Ho
wont down on his back, more on his
head, his feet kicking in the air. But
he had tho ball and clung to it. It
was a marvelous catch, such as but
only a handful present ever witnessed,
ind Hull was the hero of tho game.
Moualian played a wonderful game at
short and surprised oven his most ard
ent and hopeful admirers. Monahan Is
truly a promising youngster nnd his
work Justifies some rosy predictions.
Ills fielding easily led In yesterday's
game. Byrnes, Cuff and ISmmett, Mc
Halc and Ncalon shared the batting
honors.
Up to the seventh liming tho score
was a tie 4-4. In thl3 Inning a long
drive to centre brought In two runs.
In the eighth another long drive to tho
same place and an error netted two
more, which cinched the game.
The detailed score follows:
