The Valley Grievance Committee Finished Its Work at Wilkes- brotherhoods of the Lehigh Valley Trainmen held a very brief meet- |g at Wilkes-Barre yesterday '|moming and then adjourmed to at some future date to be deter- mined by the latter. While absolute secrecy was maintained, the members did not desire to hide the fact that their business was about completed and the amendments to the schedule arranged almost satisfactory to the present management. However, this will not be done for several weeks, as there are a number of minor matters to be taken up and discussed with the various division superintendents before any general plan is agreed upon. It was decided to seek an audis ence with General Manager M. B. Cutter for the purpose of reaching an agreement on the demands of the trainmen and conductors, as formulatéd qt Buffalo in- October. In presenting these demands the trainmen and conductors will fed<] erate. There was talk of the con- ductors breaking away from the federation proposition, but it was realized by the conservative ones that their only hope of securing their demands was the federation plan and accordingly it was decided by them to unite forces with the trainmen. THEY LIKE THE DANCE The young people of Sayre ads mire the dance. The inspiring strains of the two step and waltz fascinates them to a point beyond comprehension. Yesterday after. noon 80 or more couples attended a matinee dance in Eighmey’s hall. Dancing began at 2 o'clock and continued, with only fifteen min- utes intermission, until 6. In the evening the Movanho club, prettily and tastily decorated for the occa- sion, was the scene of another terpsichorean event, and it is safe to say that mine tenths of those in attendance were also present at the afternoon dance. There is only one way to explain it: The boys go because they know the girls will be there, and the girls go be- cause—well, because they like to PAT QUINN AGAIN Pat Quinn of Laquin quaintly quibbled in Athens last cvéning and queerly wandered around for quarters. He had been invited to leave several other towns in this vicinity and had a quantity of queerosity as to where he would hang out. Chief Mulligan quietly took him by the collar and invited him to quit. He complied without any further compliments but with many qualms of conscience. EDGAR E. WALKER Edgar E.

It is the short- est month in the year and has three holidays : Lincoln's birthday, spring clection day, and iri? The Sayre Methodist Church Was the Scene of a Brilliant Affair Last Evening About five hundred persons at- tended the birthday party given in the church parlors of the Metho- dist church last evening. This birthday party was a general affair, and was intended to include every- who cared to be present, the only obligation imposed being that cach one who came should coa- tribute as many cents as they were years old. The collection taken would indicate that several of the mark. A speaker was chosen to repre~ resent every month in the year and was expected to show conclusively that his month was superior to every other month. The reasons given seemed satisfactory to every- otc and caused much merriment. ‘Mrs. Nona Gray Rice gave two readings, The Debating Society and The Parsons Philosophy, both of which were highly appreciated. After the entertainment an ex- cellent luncheon, which had been prepared by the ladies of the church was served. - FITINGLY OBSERVED WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY Tioga Chapter, Daughters of the Washington's meeting at the home of the First Vice Regent, Mrs. Elmer, in Wav erly.

In 1799, on the last birthday before his death, he attended a public gathering in Alexandria in his honor, Mrs. Sheldon read an interesting article on the character of Washington. Miss Finch read a very instruet- ive paper on “Historic New York” which was written by Miss Fannie Millspaugh. It gave the history of Bowling Green; of the leaden statute of George Ill which was run into bullets to fight against him; of Trinity church and church. yard; of King's college near Co- Inmbia, and of many other interest- ing places and events. The meeting closed with the singing of “America,” Refresh. ments were served during the social hour. At the meeting of the executive committee six new names were accepted. - NOTICE I do not wish any of my custo- mers of friends to think that the retirement of J. W. Arthur from the firm of Arthur & Company and the dissolution of that firm will make any change inthe business, it is only a progressive step in the same line, I shall in the future endeavor to serve my patrons better and keep all I now have and get just as many more as | can. Give me a trial, and I'm sure you will come again, D. M, ArTHUR, 416 Stevenson St., Sayre. ELECTED A DIRECTOR At a meeting of the Valley direc tors, held in Phicadelphia yesterday 5. P. Wolverton, former member y for the Coxe Broth- Meeting Will Be Held in Stone's Hall, Waverly, on Next to Discuss the Matter and Waverly will meet in Stone's hall, Waverly, on Sunday next for the purpose of discussing the feasi- bility of organizing a musicians’ union. For some time there has been considerable agitation of the subject, and so persistent has it be- come that it has been decided to call the musicians together and dispose of the agitation either one way or the other, ! The meeting will be called to | order at 5 o'clock, and it is earnest- ly hoped that all the musicians in the valley who are interested in the matter will be in attendance, as it is desired that all may have oppor- tunity to express their views. Strictly speaking there are no professional musicians in the val. ley, the word “professional” being interpreted as applying to one who gaias his livelihood by following hand, however, there are any num- ber of amateur and semi-profes- sional brass and string instrument, players, pianists, etc, who are de- |sirous of forming an organization | whereby a schedule of prices ean | be adopted and maintained that will protect all concerned. If an organization is eflected it will be affiliated with the American Federation of Labor. THE J. C. ROCKWELL 0.
