_ dent at Annsal Convention
Held Last Night—Banquet
Follows Business Session
The Fifth Anaual Convention of
the Valley Firemen's Association
was called to order promptly at
8 o'clock last night. The conven.
tion was held in the Packer Hose
rooms and all of the delegates
were present.
The following officers were
elected for the ensuing year: James
Clohessy of Waverly, president,
Charles Beibach of Sayre, vice
president; D. D. Tillman of Sayre,
secretary, and M. J. Farrell, also
of Sayre, treasury.
It was decided to elect four di~
rectors this year instead of two, as
has been the custom since the or-
ganization of the association, The
directors chosen are E. A, Tilton
and Fred F, Smith of Waverly,
and Joha Rabcock and J. D. Munn
of Sayre. In order to create more
interest in the anual meetings it
was decided to discuss topics of a
various nature at the next session
of the association, and E. A. Tilton,
J. M. Smith and M. |] Farrell were
appointed a committee to name
the subjects,
Waverly was chosen as the place
for holding the convention and pa-
rade next year. A banquet followed
the business meeting,
The Social Session
Last night's banquet, the fifth in
the series of enjoyable affairs that
have marked the history of the
Valley Firemen’s association, set a
pace for hospitality and good feel-
ing that has not been surpassed
heretofore ia this region.
After the business of the con-
vention had been despatched, the
delegates welcomed a number of
guests, including a few veteran
firemen, some of the village
authorities of Waverly and Sayre,
representatives of the Sayre Busi-
ness Men's association and mem-
bers of the press. A short social
time followed, and then the 75 or
odd gentlemen sat down to a long
table garmished with beautiful
flowers and heaped high with
viands of the choicest and most
delectable varieties. A large force
of male waiters, many of them
volunteer firemen, were kept ex-
tremely busy for half an hour, and
it was remarked that the service
was uncommonly good,
But there is a limit to man’s
capacity and, despite a general de-
sire to establish gastronomic
records, the banqueters were finally
compelled to abandon the contest.
Daly's orchestra, which up to this
point had discoursed sweet har
mony, then gave way to the orators.
M. H. Sawtelle made an ideal
toastmaster. He did not monopo~
lize the talk; his introductory re-
marks were to the point, and the
anecdotes with which they were en-
livened struck the popular fancy,
The oratory was also a departure
from that heard on similar occa-
sions. [tis impossible to particu
larize, and, anyway, the thought
voiced, rather than the personnel of
the individual, is of first importance,
Oratorical expressions ran the en.
tire gamut, from the vivid word
painting of the skilled rhetorician
to the plain, wholesome phrases of
the volunteer fireman, Rounded,
panegyric, eloquent peroration and
rapid succession until the listener
had but to close his eyes and
see before him a panorama
that portrayed the red-shirted
hero in the performance of his
duty—sometimes the disagreeable,
thankless task we know it to be—
on other occasions the risk of life
itself, willingly taken, in order that
another might be saved.
There is also an end to the words
of man, and when the assemblage
had drusk to the continued good
health of the association and dis-
tion, and last night's event has
gone a long way toward increasing
the good reputation of this popu-
lar firm.

ASK CONCESSION
Lehigh Valley Enginemen Are
Holding Annual Meeting at
Pittston.
What is considered to have been
a very important meeting was held
at Pittston Tuesday when the mem-
bers of the Lehigh Board of Ad-
justment of the Brotherhood of
Locomotive engineers held its an~
nual session.
Just what was discussed or con-
sidered was not definitely ascer-
tained, as the officers were reticent,
saying that the business of the
session related to internal affairs,
Itistoo well known to warrant
contradiction, however, that the
engineers desire a rearrangement
of the schedule, They want, it is
said the promotions to be given to
the oldest men in point of service
and there are some classes of en-
gineers who would like an increase
in wages, The board will remain
in session several days and its
findings will be presented to Presi-
dent Thomas in writing.

DENISON CAUSES
DANTON'S ARREST
The Latter Is Charged With
Pointing a Deadly Weapon at
the Former
This morning Stephen’ Danton
was arrested on complaint of Dr,
L. B, Denison, who charges Dan.
ton with pointing a pistol. Danton
was arraigned before Justice Nel-
son and through his attorney,
Paul E. Maynard, waived a hear
ing and entered bail in the sum of
$200 for his appearence at the next
court of quarter sessions, The
arrest of Danton is the outgrowth
recently by Danton against Deni-
son, in which the latter is charged
with alienating the affections of the
former's wife. The latter part of
last week Denison caused a war-
rant to be issued for Danton, charg-
ing a similar offense, but for some
unknown reason this warrant was
withdrawn. Speacer Brougham
qualified as bondsman in the case
against Danton today. The differ-
ences which exist between Danton
and Denison are now becoming in-
teresting and the outcome will be
awaited impatiently by the public.

weary of his job, when he was told |8
to procure three barrels of water
instead of two. Rather than obey
orders he decided to quit, He de-
manded his pay, which he claimed
amounted to $5, but his employer
says that he had overdrawn to the
extent of 75 cents, Payton, how-
ever, who claimed to have the
account in his head, insisted on
having the five dollars, and began
suit to recover. Tuesday night,
however, while ia a thirst empori-
um Peyton told several of the car-
nival attaches that if he had a
revolver he would shoot Mrs. Har-
rison full of bullet holes and then
turn the gun on himself, The
threat came to the ears of
the woman, and as she did not
know what the colored youth
might do, she concluded to have
him apprehended.
When arraigned in court Peyton
was sure that he did not make|the
threats attributed to him, but three
or four witnesses were just as sure
that he did. The matter was fine

bought him a ticket for a point

New York city and he comes to
the Loomis directly from the city
with the same cast and scenic

should be greeted with a crowded
