If you care to take a good spring
tonic the Gardner-Vincent Stock Co.
recommend you to witness a per
formance of their roaring farce
comedy "What Happened to Brown,"
which' takes place at the Lyric thea
tre on the evenings of Thursday,
Friday and Saturday of this week,
This three-act comedy was construct
ed for laughing purposes only, so
if you have the spring fever or are
suffering with a case of the blues,
make it a point to see what did
happen to Mr. Brown, Mr. Gard
ner takes the part of Timothy Brown,
who marries a woman as homely as
the rear end of a coach, but she is
wealthy. He invites a friend and
clubman, and his wife to pay them
a visit and while there Mrs. Brown
gets very Jealous of the clubman's
wife (Mrs. Stlllman) and here is
where the fun starts. Everything
is in confusion and amid the most
ludicrous situations one is compelled
to laugh continuously to the end of
the play. Miss Vincent will be seen
as Mrs. . Stlllman, in a part that is
entirely different from anything he
has yet appeared in.
"In Old New Hampshire," one
of tho most pleasing plays In the
repertoire of tho Gardner-Vincent'
Stock company will be produced for
tho third and last time this (Wed'
nesday) evening. Most of the char
acters are quaint, homely and hu
morous, even to tho villain, an old,
cold-blooded hypocrite, who is much
more amusing than villainous. Miss
Vincent, as sweet Helen Gory, the
folorn and homeless waif, cannot
fall to arouse thesympathy of any
audience, and shows this talented
little lady in a role so entirely dif
ferent from any we have yet seen
her in, that we wonder where her
versatility is going to end. Mr.
Gardner as big hearted Jim, a plain
good natured fellow with a rough
manner but a kindly heart, is one
of the most striking characters we
have seen him portray. The school
room scene In the third act is one
of the most excruciatingly funny
seen in a long time and several
specialties are introduced by mem
bers of the company.

On account of a general in

postmaster Allen has found it
necessary to remodel the postofllce
interior, with a view to affording

NEW SCHOOL BUILDING
PARTIALLY BURNED
A Destructive Fire of Possibly In
rentliary Origin Damages the
High .School to the Extent
of $20,000.
The new and splendid structure
approaching completion as the fu
ture home of the Honesdale high
school, narrowly escaped total de
struction on Saturday morning last.
About half-past three David H.
Menner, whose residence is directly
opposite the new building on
Church street, discovered the reflec
tion of flames somewhere in the
rear of the old wooden structure
which is being utilized while the
new building is being erected, and
at once concluding that the former
was on fire, hurried to the home
of contractor Richard H. Brown, on
Main street, to apprise him of the
fact. By this time, however, others
had discovered the real location of
the trouble, and very shortly after
ward tho gong fire alarm was
sounded, bringing out Protection
engine company, with one steamer;
the Alert hook and ladder company
of East Honesdale, and the Chemi
cal engine company of Texas No. 4.
Hose was attached to several plugs,
most convenient to the conflagra
tion, and were soon in use; while
the steamer was hurried to the foot
of Tenth street, where considerable
delay was occasioned In securing
water owing to the fact that a large
heap of rubbish was found to have
been carelessly deposited just where
the engine should stand.
In very creditable time, however,
all the apparatus was effectively at
work, and the various companies
won warm encomiums for the zeal
ous and efficient manner in which
they discharged their duties. Tho
fire for somo time seemed to be con
fined to a small apartment or recess
on the south side of the main build
ing, just back of tho bay window,
and to this point the first streams
were directed, but It soon became
apparent that the flames were rapid
ly climbing to the upper story, and
that heroic measures must be
adopted to check their advance. It
was at this crisis that the utility of
the suburban companies was clear
ly to be recognized. By tho aid of
their long ladders the cornices were
successfully scaled, and the fire
men were enabled to attack tho
flames from above, and to direct
their streams to points where they
must provo effective.
Meantime the Are was persistently
eating Ita way among the floor
Joints, partitions, ceilings, and every
thing else combustible, until the
entlro roof of the eastern half of the
building was involved, and for some
time, despite tho heroic exertions
put forth by the firemen, it looked
as though the whole massive struc-
ture was doomed to destruction.
Fortunately, however, tho tide turn
ed at this juncture, and soon It
was realized that the worst bad
enough at that was over. Besides
more or less damage from smoke,
water, etc., In all parts of the build
ing, the entire Interior of tho west
ern half of tho building may be re
garded as practically ruined. Esti
mates as to tho damage vary from
110,000 to J20.000, which fortun
ately is fully covered by insurance.
The risks were about equally divided
among one borough agencies, so
that no one company will be a1 suf
ferer to any very great extent. The
adjusters are expected hero to-day.
Of course this misfortune will
materially delay the completion of
the building, which it was expected
would be ready for occupancy by
tho 1st of September next.
New Baseball Rules.
A substituted pitcher must pitch un
til the man at bat when the pitcher
takes his position has cither been nut
out or readies first base.
In case of interference with a fielder
or batsman the ball is not in play un
til the pitcher, standing in his position,
holds it and the umpire calls "Play 1"
A batted ball that touches the per
son of the umpire or a nlaver "whilo
on or over fair ground" is a fair hit,
and a batted ball that touches the per
son of the umpire or of a player "while
on or over foul ground" is a foul hit.
Hereafter in case of a player's eject
ment from the game by the umpire such
player is out of both game and grounds.
He must either go to the clubhouse or
leave the grounds entirely under penal
ty of forfeituie of the gan.e by the um
pire.
Hereaftcr any ground rule must be
acceptable to the captain of the visiting
team, and if objectionable to said visit
ing captain the umpire has the power
to adopt or reject said ground rule o
rules.

SPRING 6USHESAPPLE BRANDY
Farmer Strlket Underground Lake In
Pocket of Rock In Missouri
Regarded as "Unusual."
Springfield, Mo. What chance haa
Stato-wido prohibition in Missouri
when applejack, pure, undiluted apple
brandy, mellow with age, bubbles up
from the ground like a spring? When
drilling a well on his farm, seven
miles north of here, Joel Hazelwand
struck a flow at eighty feet of una
dulterated apple brandy of unusually
fine quality. A dozen bucketfuls of
tho liquor have bubbled up through
tho holo to-day, and there seems to
be no diminishing In quantity.
Because of tho Federal statutes
Hazelwand Is unable to soil his strike,
but neighbors with jugs havo been in- '
vitcd to help themselves, and dozens
have accepted the invitation.
Geologists hero are unable to glvo
any definite account of tho pheno
menon, though they glvo credence to
the theory of "Uncle Billy" Woodman,
the oldest Inhabitant. "Uncle Billy"
says there was an orchard on tho
sight of Hazelwand's farm before the
civil war, and in tho year of '62 there
was an exceptionally bountiful crop.
Beforo tho harvest all tho men in
tho country had gone to war and thero
was nobody left to gather tho crop.
When tho apples became rlpo a ter
rific windstorm blow them from tho
trees and practically destroyed tho
orchard. The heavy vain that follow
ed the wind washed the fruit into tho
creek, from whore they wero drawn
Into sonic subterranean stream.
The apples, somewhere In their un
derground Journey were caught In a
stream of boiling water nnd cooked.
Tills formed the apple brandy, which
filtered Into a pocket of rock nnd re
mained there to mellow with ago until
tapped by Hazelwand'n well.
Tho geology of this section of Mis
souri 13 such-that the gathering of tho
brandy in a pocket of rock is entirely
practicable, as tho whole country is
underlaid with a stratum of Burling
ton limestone. This limestone Is
easily eroded by water, and subterra
nean lakes are not infrequently found,
although such a lake of apple brandy
is regarded as unusual.
No Chanc for a Miracle.
One day Dr. Norman McLeod, who
was a largo . ni Healthy man, and ono
of his burly elders went to pay a
visit to a certain Mrs. MacLaren of
tho congregation, who lived In the
Scotch Hills. Sho was a frugal wom
an, but determine that they should
have the bes. In the house. So sho
piled the table with jellies and jam
and preserves and shortbread, and
they partook unsparingly. After the
meal tho elder said to her: "Mrs.
MacLaren, were you at the kirk on
Sunday?" "Oh, t.ye." sho said, "I
was." "And what did you think of
the treatment of the miracle?" (the
sermon had been on the loaves and
fishes). "I thought it was good,"
said Mrs. MacLaren. "And what is
your idea on the subject, Mrs. Mac
Laren?" asko'. the minister.
"Losh," said their hostess sudden
ly; "I'm thinkin' that If you and tho
elder had bin in the congregation
there wadna bin twelve baskets of
fragments for the disciples to gather
up!"
