LAFE SMITH IN TOWN.
The Waymart Sleuth Visits Carbon-
dale on nn Important Mission.
Lafayette Smith, known to local famo
ns Lafo Smith, the vldocq of'Wuymnrt
and terror to doers of evil on t'other
side of the Mnoslcs, Is once more In
the public eye nfter n busy season ca
tering to the wants of excursionists at
.Lake Lodorc.
Lnfc and his eagle eye were In town
'yesterday. Ho came to Carbondale on
nn Important mission; What It was
cannot be disclosed, as yet, but It wasn't
to buy any ten-story buildings.
Lafe encountered some of the news
paper men, wlio are always glad to.seu
him, as he Is to greet them with t a
Hearty shnlto of' the right hand that
held his faithful army musket through
the grim and bloody days of the elvll
strife. After a. whole-souled "How- In
the wurld ho yub?" he was ready to
discuss current topics or run a ten
mile chase after a fleeing prisoner. Af
ter a "tech" on the weather, a word
about the Wayne county fair and a
passing comment on Constable Eddie
Neary's jealousy of his record, Lure,
t6ok to talkln' a spell about the strike.
"Yehs-s, I rcud In The Tribune th'
smawrihig that th' suldjers wit?, to
Forest City," said he. And then In the
next breath, with much spirit: "They'll
call out the old suldjers, ylt; see If they
don't."
' "How about your army ride, Lafe?"
was nsked of him. "The one you car
ried through the war?"
"Oh, I wouldn't use that 'tin; no,
slree. If It shud come to slrh u thing,
I'd have to take along my sixteen
shooter. It don't shoot near so fur as
t'other one; niebbe about 7.", rods; the
other'n, the army feller, goes 'bout a
mile, straight's a line. Hut I guess
Lafayette wouldn't do no harm to
nobody, would he, pven If he did carry
his army musket, eh?" concluded Lafe
as he poked the nearest newspaper In
the ribs so hard that the scribe thought
It. was ii ball from the army gun that
was rattling his side slats.
The reporters tried hard to pump
Lafe for a story on what brought him
to Carbondale, but shrewd old sleuth
that he Is, he wouldn't say a word.
The air of mystery that he wore, how
ever, Justifies the presumption that
there will be something doing In the
criminal capturing line before many
days.
NEW ENGINE TENDER.
An Experiment Being Made in the
O. & W. Yards at Mayfield.
What to railroad men Is n novelty In
locomotive tanks Is to be seen at the
Ontario and Western yard at Mayfield
these days.
Engine No. ISt Is equipped with one
of the Cornelius Vanderbllt, jr., tanks,
the invention of the young multi-millionaire,
who has shown himself to he
quite a mechanical genius.
The tank, Instead of being oblong,
like tlie present type, Is round, that is,
tho rear part, not unlike the rap of n
big oil tank. The fore part where the
coal is carried is square, hut the other
half is round. A long-standing objec
tion to the tenders In use is thut In
switching the view of thp engineer Is
obstructed. In the Vanderbllt type this
Is removed, the engineer being afforded
a full view of the train behind him.
The tender Is being tried at the yard,
with a view perhaps of adopting the
same If It proves acceptable.
THEATBICAXS TONIGHT.
"The Prisoner of Zenda" Will Be at
the Grand.
The long Interval In theatrical attrac
tions will be broken tonight by the pro
duction of "The Prisoner of Zendu," at
the Grand.
The diagram, which opened 'Wednes
day night, is well marked, and the ex
pectation Is that the legion of readers
of Anthony Hope's novel will be well
represented at tonight's performance.
Tho company is under the direction
of Shlpman Brothers, whose "Pudd'n
head 'Wilson" company was so well re
ceived In Carbondale last season. Ed
win Mordant, the romantic actor, and
Ola Humphrey, a charming actress, will
head the capable company. The scenery
Will be In keeping with the well-selected
least.
FAIR BALL GAME RAIN!
ST. Huvlus Plays Havoc with People's
Expectations.
In the words of the irrepressible
"Chuck" Connors, two diversions will
be put on the tramp for fair, If J.
Pluvius, tho man from up there, con
tinues to shed the copious teais thut
gave us free baths yesterday and tho
flay afore.
Tho dawn of today will be awaited
With anxiety und apprehension by the
patrons of tho Wuyno county fair and
the rooters of "Our Pets." Today was
originally Intended as tho last day of
the fair. Yesterday, on account of the
rain Wednesday, it was decided to hold
twp days' racing, but yacht racing or
Bating and canal boats would be more
If HARD ON CHILDREN.

In order. Today but who knows what
It will bo? there will be two days'
racing, perhaps, and the fair will close
tomorrow, wind and weather permlttln'.
The Simon Long team were to be our
guests today, and they would be greet
ed by nn Immense crowd, It's mighty
doubtful, though, If the game can come
off. There Is a speck of encouragement
In the weather man's card of last night.
It rends! "Italn tonight and Friday
forenoon, followed by, clearing." But
the weather man, like the rest of us
mortals, sometimes mnkes an off guess;
but It's hoped that this time he's a good
guesser and that there will bo enough
sunshine, nfter the "clearing," to dry
the sod of DufTy's Held. If It bo other
wise, there will be many a disappointed
base ball crank In Carbondale tomor
