“Anna Moore,” the central char-
acter of “Way Down East” has
perhaps received from the public
more sympathetic expressions and
heartfelt regrets over her treatment,
than any character of fiction of
modern times. Her simple story,
her grief and anguish; her spirited
denunciation of the man who took
advantage of her innocence; her
triumph and
to
legislature last winter is a source
of considerable aonoyance and
anxiely to those who follow the
in the conduct of the municipal
elections, So far as borough
elections are concerned the law is
rather vague, and is likely to prove
unsatisfactory. It is contended
that it gives the right to the bor-
ough whether it shall use the new
law or conduct the primaries under
the old, In several of the counties
of the Commonwealth the commis~
sioners are deciding that the new
primary election law shall not apply
to the nomination of candidates for
borough and township offices. The
law gives the commissioners no
such authority and the state de-
partment advises that they have go
business to decide the matter. The
conclusion will probably be reached
that if any party in a borough or
township desires to make its nom-
inations for local officers under the
new system it will have to be pers
mitted to do so, and the commis
sioners will be required to provide
the facilities and arrange for pay-
ing the expenses. This is sub-
stantially the ruling of the secretary
of the Commonwealth aad for the
present there is no higher author-
ity.
While there is no doubt that the
new law gives townships and bor-
oughs the privilege of holding
primaries under the new law or
the old, as they desire, there is
considerable speculation as to how
to decide the matter, Although
the law makes the foregoing pro-
vision and gives the township or
borough the choice of either the
new or the old, it as a question as
to who shall decide. It would aps
pear, however, that if the electors
of any borough or township desire
to make nominations for the com-
ing spring election under the new
primary act, then they should sig-
nify such desire and intention by
filing with the county commis-
sioners petitions for nominations,
which must be done at lcast seven
weeks before the time for holding
the primaries. If such petitions
are not filed with the commission
ers no ballots will be provided for
use under the new primary law,
and the primaries cannot be held
under the same, but will have to
be conducted according to the old
system, that is in the manner pre-
scribed before the passage of the
new act. It is asserted that in the
event of any cf the candidates fils
ing a petition it will suffice to
place the law in operation. Ia the
event of others wanting to main-
tain the present system, the matter
would be then thrown into the
courts for them to adjust,
The game is here, and it is very
hard to decide who is the greatest
hunter, there are “birds” of all
sorts, also animals. John R. Dru-
gan contributes two of the great
American hogs. The bill of fare
will be mixed, roast pig, turkey,
chicken, rabbit and partridge; and
some of them were really wild.
All members should turn out for

and a big dinner. Some of the
boys could not get out to hunt,
but they are expected to get out
tonight by all means. Come and
let us have a rousing old time.

UAW WERE PRESENT
Rev. E. W. DeWitt Preached
Farewell Fermon Under Pro-
tection of the Police
The Rev. E. W. DeWitt, well
known to readers of the newspapers
in Waverly, Sayre and Athens,
having been a pastor of the Baptist
church in the latter place for seve-
ral years, will leave Scranton,
where he has been for the last
year. Mr. DeWitt preached his
last sermon in the North Avenue
Baptist church at that place on
Sunday evening, and as he
preached bluesuniformed mem-
bers of the city’s police force
occupied pews in various parts of
the church edifice. In other words
the corpulent pastor preached his
last sermon with the minions of
the law as his protectors. Mr.
DeWitt defiantly stated that he was
going to Erie, this state, and that
the good members of the congre-
gation to whom he was to preach
the gospel, will permit him to ats
tend ball games, if he desires, and
that the deacoas will go with him.
The congregation of the Scranton
church gave Mr. DeWitt a farewell
reception and presented him
a purse well filled with lucre. Mr.
DeWitt, as is well known, carries a
superabundance of averdupois and
it appears that he has fought the
battle to a finish.
PIG WAS MISSING
There was weeping and wailing
and gnashing of teeth among the
members of the Sayre City Club
last night. The members are ar-
ranging for a game dinner to be
held this evening. For the past
week the woods hereabouts have
been filled with hunters and all
kinds of birds and animals, both
wild and tame, have been brought
in by the sportsmen. Among oth
er things that have been captured
for the dinner was a small pig and
no end of rabbits, The pig was
provided for roasting purposes and
last night it was properly dressed
and lain away in the refrigerator at
the club house grill until such
time as it was to be toasted over
the coals. This morning, however,
when Mr. Shaw, the manager of
the club, went to the refrigerator,
he discovered that the pig and also
two rabbits were missing. The
appearance of the refrigerator de-
noted that a thief had been at work
and as he left indisputable evidence
of his identity behind he was
quickly caught. When confronted
with the horrible crime he broke
down and confessed. He said that
he had not done the actual thiews
ing himself but that he had em-
ployed an unscrupulous Hungarian
to do the job. He said thatit had
been years since he had tasted par-
boiled pig and when he discovered
how easy it would be to purloin
this one he could not resist the
temptation. Upon promising to
be present at the dinner to be giv-
en this evening, and to tell the
members of the club just how the
pig was stolen, he was toll to go
and sia no more as the proprietor
of the club refuses to prosecute.
WILL PLEAD GUILTY
Lyman Heeman, Jr, who was
committed to the county jail by
Justice Carey is wanted on four
different charges. He has already
been indicted on two of these
charges and when he arrived at
Towanda yesterday stated to Con-
stable Brougham that he intended
to plead guilty to them all. By
doing this and saving the county
the expense of a trial he will
doubtless get a considerable lighter
sentence. As itis, however, the
slippery Lyman, Jr., ought to re- |
ceive a rather stiff sentence, |

THE HONING BRD
This Evening
“The Mummy and the Hum-
ming Bird,” to be presented at
Lord Lumley, and Henry Carl
grinder, may be properly described
as a comedy that contains the poss
sibilities of a tragedy, had its inci
dents been treated by the author in
a different and less delicate manner
but, as its theme and situations
have been logically developed, and
its complications brought to a hap-
py ending, the unfolding of its plot
is accompanied by an increased ins
terest that may be attributed to the
very uncertainty that shadows the
events as they transpire until the
desirable denouement is reached.
The reputation that has been won
by the play rests in a measure up-
on the large number of good parts
it contains, each of the characters
being sufficiently strong in itself to
constitute a star role in an ordinary
production. The company com-
sists of artists whose individual tal-
eat, it is claimed, ranks them high
in artistic merit, therefrom result
ting a performance which is every~
where described as wellnigh pers
fect in its ensemble.

RESOLUTIONS
Whereas, It bas pleased our Heavenly
Father in His all-wise providence to
take from our midst our esteemed friend
and sister, Fama Hudson, it is bata just
tribute to the memory of the departed

our order has lost a worthy member, one
who was ever ready to proffer the hand
of aid and the voice of sympathy toall
who were in need or in sorrow, one
whose noble and upright life is a stand-
and of emulation to her sisters in this
lodge. Therefore be it
Resolved, By Lady Willard Rebekah
Lodge No, 131, 1. 0. O. F,, that while we
wourn with those who are near to her
by family ties, we share with them the
hope of a reanion in that better world
where partings are unknown.
Resolved, That the members of the
lodge extend to the bereaved family
their sincere and heartfelt sympathy in
their deep aflliction, and commend them
to Him who doeth all things well, and
whose chastisements are meant in mer
oy.
Resolved, As a mark of respect, that
the charter of the lodge be draped In
mourning for a period of thirty days
and that these resolutions be spread
upon the records of the lodge, a copy be
sent to the bereaved family and printed
in the daily papers,
