A large delegation from the Sayre Aerie of Eagles attended the meeting held by the Waverly Berie last night. The Sayre con- tingent report an elegant time and time and say that they were most royally entertained by their Wav- erly brethren. — One of the features of Lottie Blair Parker's Under Southern Skies will be the rendition, by a sextette of trained voices, of the old plantation melodies that were famous a generation ago and which today are as popular as ever, judg ing from the heartiness ol the ap- plause which they evoke. A new fence, beginning at the east end of the Packer avenue bridge and extending along . the bank to the ice house is being erected by the Lehigh Valley rail- road company. Recently a new high board fence was erected from the ice house to the Lockhart street bridge and the improvement is quite noticeable On April 4th an Aerie of Eagles will be instituted at Towanda. The work of installing will be done by Jesse Hedrick, state deputy grand president, and M. J. Farrell, past worthy president of the Sayre Aerie, who has been appointed an assistant. The mem- bers of the Sayre Aerie have been invited to be present, PERSONAL MENTION R.A P: Mads is In tows. Mrs. A. J. Grant is ill at her home on Hayden street. Mrs. F. N.

P. A. of which organization he is the president. Miss Anna Lynch of Towanda, James Lynch of Overshot, and John F. Lynch of Downington, Pa. have returned to their respective homes after a visit at Hugh Dix: on's on Chiff street. Mrs, Charles Gay is the guest of friends in Wilkes-Barre, She is Athens Charles Ross, a resident of East Packer avenue is under arrest be- fore Justice H. F. Johnson of Athens on two charges, one of them assault and the other for hav- ing unlawful possession of certain goods, which are alleged to be the property of Ross’ mother in law, Mrs, Lorina Baker. Mrs. Baker has had troubles galore since her coming to Sayre last summer, and to faithfully recite them would oc~ cupy more space than the ordinary newspaper cares to devote for the purpose. Early in January Mis Raker, who resided with her son in law Ross, became a county charge, an order of relief having been granted her by the authorities of Sayre. When the commissioners came to take charge of the case they found that she was a charge on Wyoming county and after considerable trouble and expense had her re- turned to that county. She was taken to Tunkhannock, but a short time ago returned to Sayre. Cer- tain goods which she claimed were hers had been left at the home of her son in law and she demand. ed them. The son in law refused, it is alleged-to give them up on the grounds that his mother in law owed him for her care and board. Now Mrs. Baker says that her son in law in addition to wrongfully, maliciously and feloniously hold- ing her goods has also assaulted her, and upon making the proper information Justice Johnson issued awarrant for Ross’ arrest. He has pleaded not guilty - and the hearing will be held some time next week. Mrs. Biker, the complainant in the case, is a character and by those who have come in contact with her since her residence in Sayre is ‘not beleived to be men- tally sound. BAPTIST CHURCH REPAIRS Since the first of January the Baptist church and parsonage at this place have been undergoing alterations and repairs. The par sonage has been newly papered throughout, the wood work has been vamiished, an] necessary res pairs to the plumbing, etc, have been attended to. The church edifice has also been given attention. The interior has been appropriately decorated, the scats have been painted, and a new carpet which is expected today, will be placed on the floor. Itis possible that the church will be in readiness for services next Sunday, thought it is as yet a matter of un- cerfainity. A CORRECTION It appears that The Record was a little mixed yesterday in its ans nouncement of the event which occurred in Trainmen's hall on Tuesday evening. The Record stated that the supper and dance was given by the Ladies’ Society of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Eagincers, when it should have. said that the event was given under the auspices of the Ladies’ Society | of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen. There are so many of these organizations in Sayre with the auxiliary attachment that a newspaper man needs an indexed chart in order to keep straight. WHERE IS IT? The Gazette and Bulletin of Wil« liamsport is booming the Hon, Elias Deemer for Governor, and this suggests the pertinent inquiry What has become of the diminutive boom for the Hon. Mial E Lilley, congressman from this district ? ly Anxious to Get Their Clutch- Sayre Recently A letter addressed to the Ladies’ Library Club from H. A. Surface, State Economic Zoologist, Depart- ment of Agriculture, of Harrisburg, has been received. The subject matter of the letter is in connect ion with the work of a man named Knauf, who recently appeared in Sayre and mutilated a large num- Members Determined to Wipe the Organization Out of Ex- istence The Movanho club, Sayre's well known social and athletic organi- zation which was organized nearly four years ago, is no longer extant A mecting was held|last night, and til pearly midnight, the club was disbanded.

The state authorities are anxious to get their clutches upon Knauf in which event they will prosecute him to the full extent of the law The letter reads as follows: February 21, 1906 I thank you very much for your communication of the 17th inst giving me important information concerning the bogus tree doctor by the-name of Knauf I am sorry to know that he has bobbed up again in this state this year. Last year he did an immense amount of damage to the central, northern, and western part of Peansylvania| injuring trees and charging owners immense prices for his injuries in- | flicted. For example, in Curwens- | ville, Clearfield county, he actually | killed most of the trees on the | strects there. | wish you would | have him arrested for getting money under false pretenses and | ifthe hearing can be set for any | time after next week, | am willing | to cometo Athens without charge and testify against him if he makes | such statements as those you relate in your letter. | think that we will { have no trouble to prove that he is defrauding the public, and in our «forts to put him out of business and keep him away from the trees and gullible citizens we shall be] doing a very good thing for this] state will take this up and have him ar rested and your newspapers pub lish as widely as possible the frauds that he is practicing. Thanking you for calling my attention to this which 1 shall mention in my next bulletin, | am Very truly yours, H. A Surface. BE 1S A FRAUD The latest fraud is working postmaster and rural carriers. The. shark pretends to be selling what he calls -a “congressional mi nual” [It costs $2.50 and con- tains something that postmasters ought to know. The profits, says the shark, are to be donated to the National University Fund He always tells the victim that the congressman from the district sent him. Congressman Lilley has denounced the scheme as a fraud. He may travel through Sayre. GREETING OLD FRIENDS R. D Kavanaugh, a machinist, formerly employed in the Sayre shops, but who until recently has been employed in the office of the Bethlehem Steel Works, is in Sayre sion was in connection with a prop members that the club could sus- event of any of the members wish ing to revive it at a future time the same could be done with little difficulty. It was suggested that a small room be rented and the sem blance of a club maintained so that the provisions of the charter might be fulfilled, but after a lengthy discussion it was decided to settle up matters and wipe the club out of existence. After all debts and expenses were paid it was found that the club had nearly $200 in its treasury, and this sum will be equally divided between the members in good standing. There are 31 members whose names ap- pear upon the records as being | entitled to a share in the money. The disbandment of the club is | keenly regretted by some of the | members who made a heroic fight at the meeting last night to retain the organization. Others, who constituted the majority, were of {the opinion, however, that it was an expensive affair to maintain on and contended that the wisest plan was to go out of business. — en Read The Record.
