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.

JUNK BUSINES

employe of the Lehigh' Valley

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-

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,

pital yesterday morning after he

will be taken to Mehoopany for
burial. Rogers & Miller have

Experienced writers, who know

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.
If you have a little money to in-
vest, look around home, and you
will probably find some enterprise
which is sound and which will pay
you liberal returns,
