About fifty homing pigeons sent by George W. Heath, of 232 Second street, Newark, K. J., to Express Agent Frank Westfall, of this place, were liberated near the express office, corner of Main and 10th streets, at 8:30 o'clock on Fri day morning. The crowd of people present to witness the beg'mning of the homeward flight, and expecting the birds to rise to a great height before tak ing their bearings, were considerably surprised to lind that almost immediate ly after being freed they sailed off in a southwesterly direction over the Union depot and within three minutes were in visible to the naked eye. Judge Staples, of .Monroe coun ty, presiding In n Lackawanna court in Scranton last week, had before , him eight Carbondale lads charged j with robbery. In disposing of their j cases the Judge adopted the pro-! nation system of Judge Lindsay of i Colorado, and his talk to the boys I may well be pondered by some of j the wayward youths of Wayne. He took the oldest four first and asked 1 them If they smoked cigarettes, j They all replied that they did and the judge asked one of the boys if he would not stop the habit. "Can't cut 'em out; there's no use trying," I replied the lad. "Can't cut them out," said the court. "Suppose I send you to a place where you can't get them?" The boy let his head drop and Judge Staples said; "Sure you can stop if you want to. Don't dare to look me In the face and say you haven't enough man hood to stop if you want to. If you don't want to, that's different, but I wouldn't give a cent tor a i boy that would tell me he could not stop a bad habit. You've got to stop. If you don't, I'll- send j you to the reformatory. I guess i I'll put your case over till this af-. vernoon to see what's best to be ! done with you." Judge Staples j then addressed each boy in turn I and grilled them hard on their knowledge of the ten command-j ments and common school arithme tic. ATter he had the eight satis tied that they were started for the gallows and the sniffling and the sobbing had drowned the voices of the court, Judge Staples said he would give them all another chance provided they smoked no more cig arettes and were home at dark every night. He instructed a po lice officer to keep special watch on the boys and had copies of the or der sent to their parents. Before dismissing the boys, the court shook hands with them all. The Valley of the Wallenpaupack, the picturesque stream which divides Wayne and I'ike counties, is, according to the Milford Dispatch, to take a long stride forward in the very near future, as the result of an improvement which will be made by the Hon. John D. Houck of La.Vnna, former Associate Judge and Representative of Pike coun ty. The old saw mill at LaAnna, which is one of the landmarks, and for many years furnished employment for a large number of men, is to be torn down and in its place will be installed a dynamo to generate electrical current of sufficient voltage to furnish light to the resort houses and private families scattered along the road from LaAnna to New foundland. Thus at exceedingly small cost the citizens of that hustling region will be furnished with one of the most desirable of all the conveniences of the larger towns. Mr. Houck is now build ing Beechnut Cottage, located just below the historic mill dam. The modern im provements which make ideal the sum mer life of the city visitors will be in stalled, including hot and cold water on all the floors. The cottage will have one hundred feet of veranda space. The water at this, as at many of the neigh boring resorts, comes from a never fail ing spring, the source of which is at a greater altitude than the house, avoiding all of the difficulties of pumping. The base against W. F. Brown, of Carbondale, formerly of Cherry Ridge and Honesdnle, indicted on the charge of assisting Dr. C, W. Treverton per form a criminal operation on his cousin, Miss Helen Brown, of Tioga, which was to have been tried last week, has been continued to the fall term of .he J.ss'.ta wanna county courts. B. A. Kelly, of Carbondale, formerly a resident of Honesdalc, has been se lected as one of the official representa tives or visitors of the State Board of Public Charities for Lackawanna county. The State Board of Public Charities has full power at all times to look into and examine the conditions of all charitable, reformatory and correctional institutions within the State, financially and other wise; to inquire and examine into their methods of instruction, the government and management of their inmates, the official conduct of trustees, directors and other officers and employees of the same; the condition of the buildings, grounds and other property connected therewith and into all other matters pertaining to their usefulness and good management. A distressing accident which re sulted in the death of Calvin Tyce, a track hand, occurred on the Erie rail road near theWest Hawley station about noon on Friday last. The unfortunate man was walking through the railroad yard in the pursuit of his duties and ob serving an engine approaching, stepped over on another track just as another shifting engine was passing in the op posite direction. He was struck by the pilot of the engine and dragged along the track for a considerable distance, and when railroad men reached him they found that both legs were cut off below the knees, and he was badly crushed about the head and body. He was placed aboard the 1:20 afternoon train to be taken to the State hospital in Scranton, but before the train reach ed Duninore he died. The body was sent to the home in Hawley Friday even ing. Mr. Tyce was sixty years of age and is survived bv his wife and six chil dren. Richard Tegeler, of Milanville, who has been employed in the creamery at Callicoon, boarded a freight train about 3:00 o'clock mi Wednesday afternoon of last week, to go to Cochecton.

The unfortunate young man was taken to the office of Dr. Apply, where it was found necessary to amputate the limb.

John Barbuoto. an Italian, who was indicted for the murder of a fellow countryman near the city of Middle town, N. Y., on the night of January 10th, a full account of which crime was given in our last issue, was found guilty of murder in the first degree at the Court House, Newburgh, Wednesday afternoon last, before Justice Morschaus er, and was sentenced to die in the elec tric chair at Sing Sing prison during the week beginning July 5th. The jury were out about an hour, returningto the court room with the verdict at 12:40 r. m. It it said only one ballot was taken. The judge at once pronounced sentence. Barbuoto was taken the same afternoon to Sing Sing prison and immediately placed in the death house with the other condemned prisoners. The Scranton papers, in noticing the fact that Samuel Katz has closed down his underweai factory, established a few months ago in the Liberty Hall build ing, in consequence of inability to secure requisite help, fell into the error of con founding his enterprise with the older and very important industry founded by Katz Brothers of which he was an orig inal member many years ago. The original concern was never more pros perous or busy than at present, as may be inferred from the fact that the firm is making arrangements for the erection of new buildings, and the installation of machinery calculated to double its output.

The adjusters of the various companies interested met in Honesdalc on Thursday last, and came ; to a satisfactory arrangement with the school board as to their liability. The aggregate amount awarded was $8,300, which, divided among a number of agencies, made their individual losses inconsiderable. During the last January term of court District Attorney Herman Harmes was placed under arrest at the instance of -Horace E. Williams, on a charge of having written a letter to the latter warn ing him that his conduct toward his wife and family had attracted public atten tion and would result in legal proceed ings if persisted in. Mr. Harmes gave the necessary recognizance for his ap-' pearance at court, and promptly pub lished in the local papers the full text of the letter complained of. He engaged I as his attorneys United States District Attnrnnv A. T. Kenrln nnrl Hun. V. 1' i Kimble, and was waiting patiently for whatever the law might have in store, as a punishment for his well-meant effort i to restore peace in one of our town fam-1 ilies, when, much to his surprise, and i without any notification to himself, he, learned a few days ago that the prose cutor had withdrawn his complaint and discontinued any further proceedings in tin case. Now, it is understood, that Mr. Harmes, who was placed under arrest by officers from another county, and in a summary and disagreeable way, is leaving it to his lawyers to say whether or not it is his duty to bring suit for ma- j licious prosecution. !
