The Ttinkhannock Republican is
printing a series of reminiscent articles
gleaned from items published in that
paper twenty years ago, and the last
issue recalls what was at that time re
garded as a notable walking match,
with Honesdale as the starting point. It
says "Judge Sittser was called home
from his pedestrian tour on Saturday
by the death of C. P. Miller. The Judge,
Charles E. Terry, C. O. Dersheimer and
15. W. Lewis had been on a tramp
through the Catskills, leaving Hones
dale on foot and going over through that
section, and swinging around to New
York city to close up their tour."
Three generations of the esteemed
Lancaster family of South Sterling, the
venerable Hugh A. Lancaster ; his son,
George II. Lancaster, and the latter's
bright little daughter, Helen, paid the
Citizen office a welcome visit on Friday
last. They came up from Newfound
land in their automobile, and returned
by way of Hawley the same afternoon.
Little Miss Lancaster is of very tender
years, yet she has had an auto exper
ience, including Canada and the west
and south, of which much older tourists
might well be proud. Her father, who
succeeded his father in the business, is
very extensively engaged in the manu
facture of flag staffs, wood toy hubs,
handles, umbrella and parasol sticks,
dowels, and American peg tops at
South Sterling, and the products of his
factories find their way into every State
in the Union.
Charged with a murder which
he did not commit and acquitted
two weeks ago after his Innocence
had been proven, Salvatore Alonza,
of Wilkes-Barre, who spent five
months In Jail in constant fear of
the scaffold, has Anally become
violently Insane and has been taken
to the Danville Asylum. It is not
believed that he will recover. Ar-
rested six months ago, accused of i
buv luutuc. ui uio ucab liiuuu, unus,
Burazzo, Alonza was placed in jail
and there, Ignorant of the law, he
was in constant dread that each day
would be his last. When the trial
was called he had no attorneys and
the court appointed two, who were
quickly able to establish his Inno
cence.
The Hancock Herald states that
Waldron Farley has moved his family
from Baltimore to Equinunk for the
summer and taken charge of the estate
and store of his late father, Hon. 11. N.
Farley, which will be continued as here
tofoie. The Herald adds : "In con
versation with our friend, Hon. W. M.
Nelson, Friday, he stated that he was
enjoying better health than for several
years past; and his looks did not belie
his assertion. Time has dealt gently
(physically) with him, and a casual ob
server would never suspect that he was
nearing the eighty-fourth mile post in
he journey of life."
On Wednesday of last week in
shifting a lumber car at Tanner
Falls, John Riefier had his left hand
caught between the car, and the en
trance to the shed, and painfully

Henry Kiefer, the young son of Mr.
and Mrs. Edward A. Kiefer, of North
Main Avenue, North Scranton, met with
a distressing mishap on Thursday morn
ing last, sustaining a laceration of the
right leg that required twelve stitches to
clpse. The lad was playing at the rear
of his home nnd fell from a platform,
landing with considerable force and
lacerating the fleshy part of the right
thigh in a most painful manner.
In the Luzerne court on Thursday
last, Judge Lynch directed a jury to re
turn a verdict against the Royal Ar
canum and in favor of the estate of H.
Rcimensnyder for $3,463.50. Reimen
snyder was a resident of Hazleton and
committed suicide a few years ago. He
was insured in the Koyal Arcanum, the
officers of which society refused to make
payment on the policy, on the ground
that Keimensnyder had ended his own
life, butthe court decided that the estate
was entitled to payment of the face of
the policy, with interest.
H. H. Rogers' estate is estimated at
from $o0,000,000to $200,000,000 in value.
Even the lesser sum is an amount which
is beyond comprehension and the earn
ings of which no man could spend on
himself.
