Kimble, the well-known proprietor of the Dyberry Hotel, near the Fair Grounds, died suddenly of apo plexy at his horoc yesterday forenoon. suitable notice of the deceased will ap pear in onr Friday's issue. Ths entertainment at the Lyric to morrow, Thursday night, offers the first opportunity that the public has had this year to know what the Honesdale schools are doing in public speaking and music. ThoLyric ought to becrowd ed. The winners at this entertainment will represent the local school in the coming scholastic contest with Dunmore and Carbondale. Among the students for the ministry of the Methodist Episcopal church, who passed the examinations at the ses sions of the Wyoming Conference, held at Plymouth, last, week, were the fol lowing : Admission on trial : Harry L. Pen ville, South Canaan. Third year: John Tuthill, Beach Lake. Fourth year : Walter Walker, Narrows burg. The Peninsular Emery Wheel Co., of Detroit, Michigan, for years owned and managed by James McConville, has been sold to Byron E.

The capitalization of the company is $25,000, and it has an established market in the United States and Canada for its products, which are emery, corundum and adamite wheels. The homestead farm of the late Thomas and Mary Bellamy, of 54 acres, located in Dyberry township, has been sold by their sons, Charles II. and T. Humphrey Bellamy, executors of the estate, ,to John Hartman, of Oregon, im mediate possession having been given. Consideration private. The Bellamy family occupied the place, which is pleas antly located, and always regarded as a desirable property, for more than fifty years. It is hardly to be expected that our streets will look at their best during the spring breakup, but the ladies of the Improvement Society venture to hope that our citizens will do their best to ward keeping them presentable. A lit tle special care end effort on the part of each will count for much in tho matter of tho beauty and sanitary condition nf tho town, Tho muck discussed dearth of can didates for the ministry seems not to be felt in tho Central Pennsylvania Con ference of the M. E, church. Last Fri tday, Bishop Hamilton, in his address to the newly ordained ministers said : "If you young men are not satisfied with the polity of our church, you have the priv-; llego to go to some other denomination where there is plenty of room, for -wo have difficulty to find places for the men, being overcrowded with ministers and students In our theological seminaries.," In speaking of the prevalent evils of the day, tho Bishop sounded a marked warn ing against the increased worldliness of tho times. Said he : "Bridge whist is wrecking the homes of our country. Ex travagance and hypocrisy play promi nent parte in this country. As long as we maintain our hypocrisy tho world will not advance" "The Citizen" is offering smoll prizes to the pupils of the Honesdale schools for essays on the grading and arrangement of the school property grounds. Some papers havo been handed in, but not as many as it was thought probable would have been sub 'mitlecf.

An article in anothercolumn gives full information as to the requirements to be observed in submitting manuscripts. In his report to the M. E. confer ence at Plymouth, Uev. Austin Griffin, Superintendent of the Oneonta district, mentioned the return to the Moravian ministry of Kev. Robert E. Clewell, who a year ago at Carbondale was received into the Wyoming conference and as signed to the church at Westford, N. Y, Mr. Clewell for a couple years previously had been a reporter for the Scranton Tribune, Honesdalc Citizen, and other papers,' coming to newspaper work from ministerial duticsln the Moravian church. Ho did not go to thechargu to which lie was assigned, the Moravian church again calling him, iimlhu returned to a pastor ate therein. In panning the Westford charge, the defection of Mr. Clewell was again noted by Dr. Griflln, and Bishop Moore, in commenting thereon, said : "1 thank the Lord these boys are glad to return to their mother." Which was a very pretty and generous remark.

The contes tants were James O'Neill, Wells Dera ing, Thomas Brennan, Arthur Crosby and David Lake.

He has always been steadfast, -faithful and loyal, and lias given ins best citorts to the work, and he and his family have won the lov ing regard of their Bishop. While we must regret tne circumstances wiucti make it advisable for him to make this change we can but be glad to know it means a promotion to him in the right sense, that it gives him a larger work to do, a work which he is well fitted for. He will have charge of Jive parishes with the assistance of a curate, and will have the direction of what is a very im portant work in the Diocese of Albany. Our good wishes and prayers will follow him in his new field of work."
