BRAVE DRIVER BOY.
DUE APPRECIATION".
William J. McDonougli Appointed
Collector for Krantz Brewery.
Sheriff Charles Armbuster, of Wayne
county, who has filled the position of
collector for the Krantz brewery In this
city, for the Pennsylvania Central
Brewing company, resigned Monday
preliminary to removing from Hones
dale to Mauch Chunk, where he will
manage a hotel, which ho conducted
some time ago.
The genial sheriff's successor is Will
isun J. McDonougli, a well known Car
bondallan, whose hustling qualities fit
him well for the position. Mr. McDon
ougli has represented the big Bartel
Brewing company, of Kingston, In tills
city for six years and was u big factor
in making their product unlvcisally
popular hereabouts. The Bartel people
were loth to let him go suid offered him
tempting Inducements to remain. The
position here, however, was too good to
set .aside. The Krantz brewery will, it
Is safe to say, feel tho effect or Mr.
MeDonough's influence in this territory.
Ho will conduct the business of the
Crystal Lake Ice company as heretofore.
He Rescues a Companion fioni
Drowning in Powderly Mine by
Displaying Rare Presence of Mind.
A hid about In years old, named Car
dun, of the South Side, engaged as driv
er sit the Powderly mine, fell yester
day from his cars and fractured a leg.
The boy dropped into a pool of water
and would soon have been drowned but
for the quick action of his companion,
another lad whose name could not be
learned, who grabbed Cardcn and held
his head above water, but wus unable
to pull him out. The boys wore in u.
part of the mine far away from the
men. Carden's companion did not dare
leave him to go for help nnd it was use
less to call.
With rare presence of mind he un
hitched the mule which was pulling a
trip of cars and startea him loose down
the gangway. When the mule appeared
at the outer workings without car or
driver, the men realized that something
was wrong and hastened to the scene of
the acciaent, where they found Garden
and his brave rescuer and brought them
to the surface.
Claim again this year for the boys,
through Its offer to give to them free
nil tho copies of Tho Tribune which
they can sell tomorrow, Christmas day.
This offer, of course, lncludDH Car

Clmstmas Handkerchiefs
A few years ago when the
tariff changes were made,
handkerchiefs began to grow
smaller. Today if you com
pare them you will find that
Connolly &. Wallace's are
nearer the old size than any.
This is a little thing, but
it is just such little details that
make one store better than
another. . .
The linen threads are closer
in our handkerchiefs than in
others at the same price. And
no store in the city carries
such a variety. No one has
so many fine French Hand
kerchiefs, either.
A little thought, a little
looking around and you'll
know where to buy your
Christmas Handkerchiefs. .
