nntl enthusiasm of the young people
whose early school days, at least, weie
rounded out. But this was not the only
factor which the Immense audience
played in this Important event: It was
happily significant of tho widespread
and deep-hen ted Interest In the cause
of education, the bulwark of tho na
tion. The stage was aglow with Illumin
ations and decorations, and revealed a
beautiful picture of light and colot
when the curtain mose. The contrast
between .the whlte-iobed girl gradu
ates and tho young men In their even
n g dress nt black produced a striking
ffect. High above the gathering on
he stage was the class motto, "Abar
anomen," "Let t"s Cio Upwaid," spelled
on a field of tho class colors white,
puiple and yellow. Heated on tho stone
was the High-school faculty, on the

Mr. O'Roylo dwelt eftectlvely on the

look upon Its possessors as prime citi

A TERRIBLY SAD
TRAGEDY OP THE RAIL
Llfo of Robert Mcnker, a Student at
Syracuse University, Crushed Out
Under D, & H. Englno on Hones
dale Branch Yesterday Morning.
Wa3 Practicing Running1 Along
the Tracks, and Becoming Con
fused, Ran In Front of Engine An
Exemplary Young Man Was Vis
iting Here,
A terribly sad tragedy of tho rail was
enacted along the Honesdalc branch of
tho Delaware and Hudson road in this
city yesterday morning. Tho victim
was Robert Quurle Mealier, a student
at the Syracuse university, who was
spending u portion of his vacation In
Carbondnle,
With his classmate, Willis M. Gard
ner, of this city, with whom ho was
chumming during his pleasure period,
Mouker donned his gymnasium suit, as
was his wont since coming here, und
repaired to tho vicinity of tho Lincoln
avenue crossing of the Honosdale
branch. Tho young man had a 100
yaid course marked off along the rails,
between the crossing leading to Kast
Side park and No. 2. This course was
selected because it was smooth nnd be
cause tho young men felt that they
would use every reasonable precaution
against danger.
They were out but a brief time, and
were Just beginning to warm up to
their exercises when thp Honesdale
way freight from Honesdalc, outward
bound, came In sight. It was In charge
of Conductor Ullel Hampton, Knglncer
Calvin Kimball and Fireman Howard
Filch. The engine wns running bnck
waul, os Is the case sometimes on this
branch. Gardner had run the course
nnd turned around to observe Meaker.
Meaker wus running at top speed, but
kept swerving towards the main track
on which the engine wns backing. He
was evidently under n misapprehen
sion, believing the train was on the
other truck. He glanced back when
the engine whistled, but still was under
the Impression that he was getting out
of the way of the train, instead of
gradually moving In front of It. Gard
ner, his brother-like companion, was
paralyzed with fear, when ho saw
Meaker bound In I rout of the locomo
tive, which was only twenty feet away.
In an Instant the engine bore him down
and when the train was stopped, the
engine, caboose and one car passing
over him, his broken and lifeless body
was removed and taken on a cur to
Lincoln avenue, from whence tho Dela
ware und Hudson ambulance conveyed
the deceased to tho McHnlc morgue,
on Main street.
The body wns fearfully mangled.
Roth legs weie severed and the hend
w.is budlv crushed.
The deceased was seventeen years ot
nge and was one oof the most popular
youths of Carbondnle. He gave prom
ise of a splendid manhood, giving evi
dences in his youthful bearing of tho
possession of manly traits and high
character. Ho was unlvei sally held In
affectionate regard, and tho news of
his sad end casts a gloom and sorrow
pa rtic.u Inily over his school friends,
anions whom lie was a favorite.
Young Men Iter's birthplace was Beth
lehem. He came to Carbondnle from
Norwich, N. Y., with his mother, eight
years ago. She opened a kindergarten,
her son entering the pubjle school. His
career there was exceptionally success
ful, graduating ns a member of tho
class of '01 of the Carbondnle High
school. He wns the class poet, and wns
a member of the school orchestra. He
entered tho Syracuse university last
September, entering the class of '95, of
the department of classics. His mother
accompanied him to Syracuse, taking
up her residence there to remain near
him until he completed his course. He
was exceedingly popular at . tho uni
versity, and was a lending member ot
the university band. He came to Car
bondule last week for the expiess pur
pose of attending the graduation exer
cises of the class of '02 of the HIkIi
school, which took place last night. Ho
was the guest or his uncle, Dr. C. T.
Meaker, of Salem avenue.
His only survivor Is his mother, who
has been summoned from Syracuse,
Tho news of her only child's tragic end
will bp overwhelming, lit her crushing
grief she has the warm-hearted sym
pathy of tho community.
AVIllls Gardner, Menker's chum, Is
sorely depressed over tho fate of his
classmate and associate, to whom ho
was united by brotherly ties of affec
tion. Mrs, Meaker, wlfo of Dr. C. T.
Meaker, left yesterday afternoon for
Syracuse, to break tho sad news to the
mother of tho deceased, and to help
sustain her on the Journey, as the ef
fect of the news on her Is greatly
feared.

Early Closing
Chapter II.
When the store closes on Thursday., July 3, it will re
main closed until' Monday, July 7, to give a double holiday to
our people. Saturday closings thereafter during July and
August will be 12 o'clock noon.
We decided to give our employes a full Saturday on July
5, on account of its following the 4th This will be the first
Saturday of our summer half holidays, and we concluded not
to ask our clerks to return for a half day's work' on Saturday
morning. We hope this move will meet with the approval of
the public. We know that our employes will appreciate the
innovation.
If you favor early closing will you bear this in mind that
we will be closed Friday and Saturday, July 4th and 5th.
We believe that not only our employes but our customers
and the people generally will approve of this move, but we
invite a frank expression on the subject from any one.
The Saturday half holidays which we inaugurated two
years ago and which we will continue this year, is done with
the single purpose of still further improving the service of the
store, We believe our faithful employes will be still more
faithful, their hearts still more willing, certainly their brains
will be clearer and their hands stronger to meet the arduous
duties that confront them during the summer months.
