Schools of the Valley Are in Ithaca Today in Large Num- bers The population of the three vals ley towns is largely reduced today and that of Ithaca correspondingly increased The union Sunday school excursion, with its low rate to Ithaca and returns, called out an enormous crowd, all of whom were anxious to see the University city. The heavy clouds overhead, with the occasional light showers, did not seem to appreciably diminish the size of. the crowd. Many of the female portion of the crowd were dressed in white, and nearly every one had a shoe box or basket filled with various articles of food intended to fortify the -carier against hunger, The excursion train pulled out in two sections of ten cars each The first was flled to its full capacity and the second was crowded by the. time it left E-ct Waverly. This is the second event of the kind, the first being last year,when the Sunday schools went to Elmira and about half the people in the valley: went to th& Queen City. This year Ithaca was chosen, and many jumped at the opportunity to visit tr is considered one of the most beautiful places in the coun- wy. AT OAK GROVE One of the plays to be presented next week by the Bennett-Moulton Company is entitled “The Jealous Wife,” a foursact comedy drama. The groundwork of the play deals with a portion of human nature that all wives experience at one time or another, namely, thinking that the husband in the case is at- tracted by a new and pretty face. To belp things along. a murder is committed, and the wife, thinking herself thoroughly abused, with a peculiar brand of feminine reason ing concluded that a man who could neglect his wife would be capable of any crime, promptly suspects her husband, and later goaded om to desperation by the villain, openly accuses him, the in- nocent husband. Of course every- thiag is smoothed out in the end and a good deal of enjoyment is derived from the comedy element, from a man masquerading in an other's clothes and identity to trot ting around without either identity or the clothes, forced to meet the cold world without either clothes or necktie, The country sheriff is another living charactér that will be much enjoyed by the audience. There are startling and thrilling situations and this play will be found very instructive, entertaining and a successful cure for the blues. ENGAGED N THE JUNK BUSINES Fred Moore, who has been in the employe of the Lehigh' Valley Company since he was fifteen years old, has resigned his position on the freight platform and will en gage in the junk business. He has reated the blacksmith shop at the corner of Thomas and Packer aves nues *cast, and will pay cash for rags, rubbér and old metals.

DISTURBED GREEK © CANDY STORE s Two young men went into the Greek candy store last night, and according to Mr. Procas, the pro- prictor, after ordering soda water, refused to pay forit. Mr. Procas also says that the young men cre- ated a disturbancé by insisting upon playing a musical instrument when they were told not to. It appears that the music was not particularly charming and as they did not desist Officer Voegel was sent for. He took the lads before Justice Nelson. The latter fined one of them five dollars, and the other signed a paper not to disturb the Greek store for a period of two years. Both were then re leased. ON PAPER ONLY Some newspaper writers, notably in the Binghamton Herald, are en gaged in building or repairing an extension of the Lehigh Valley Railroad on paper, from Montrose to Binghamton. The Herald of Monday had a big article, telling of a corps of surveyors now work- ing on the said line, went much into detail, including the statement that a party of surveyors had been is | making headquarters at the Tarbell house, Montrose. But there has been nary a surveyor there nor elsewhere in these parts, so far as can be learned. —Montrose Demo- crat, TRAMPS ROUNDED UP Chief Walsh and Special Officers Rouscher and Stevens rounded up a gang of tourists yesterday after- noon, but as there was no charge against the men they were given their liberty, The men were searched and all had money. There was nothing in their pockets, how- ever, to indicate that they were prepared to do work of a criminal nature, and they were told to get out of town as fast as their legs could carry them, FUNERAL TOMORROW The funeral of Irvin Duebler, whose death occurred at the hos- pital yesterday morning after he had made a heroic struggle for life for nearly two weeks, will be held from his late home Sunday after~ noon at four o'clock. The remains will be taken to Mehoopany for burial. Rogers & Miller have charge of the arrangements, A NEW RULE A new rule has gone into effect by which the shifters in the Packer |¥ ton yard go on duty at twelve o'clock noon and work until twelve o'clock midnight, instead of begin: ning at six o'clock in the morning When the “Marvelous” Possi- Them when your Uncle Samuel's force of mail handlers is compelled to work tive matter pertaining to gold, west. Every mail brings one or more of these paper covered books, the most marvelous mines that the world has ever known.

After a man has visited the mine at the expense of the com pany he could hardly be expected to say that the proposition is doubtful. On the othes hand, the fellows who engineer the job at the mine will see that the visitor is well taken care of, and that the “riches” of the mine are fully exposed to his view, ° Briefly, the loregoing is some of the methods adopted by western mining companies to sell “wildcat” stock. After the “sucker” has invested his money, however, and several years pass by without: his having received any dividends, he begins to make inquirics and learns to his sorrow that the stock is worthless and that the compasy has abandoned the mine because it didn’t pay; or, perhaps, in some cases he learns that the company has no existence except in name, and that his money has simply gone to fatten a gang of swindlers who never saw a gold mine, much less to own one. Nearly all gold mining schemes of this character are good things to let alone. If a mine is recking with wealth there will be plenty of capital forthcoming to work it out At any rate the company that owns one won't get down to a “five cents a share" proposition.
