The dust was greatly In evidence on the road between Honesdale and the Fair grounds. There is a pre pnrntlon mostly composed of oil which would make this road more pleasant during fair week. We hope our Fair committee will give this matter consideration before next year's fair and if proper publicity is given to the fact that the dust evil has been overcome, there will be a larger attendance. There was a spill in one of the races on Wednesday. Leo Theobald, who was driving Sylvia Bargie, a horse owned by Henry Theobald, in turning to score, made too short a turn and upset his sulky and was thrown to the ground, but he pluck- the horse was thrown. A recess was given until the horse was reharness ed. Sylvia Bargie did not display her usual speed after that and it was due no doubt to the shaking up she got when thrown. PERSONAL MENTION.

The State Sunday School Convention The big Sunday school conven tion to be held at Harrlsburg Oct. 13, 14, 15, will without question bring together the largest gathering of Sunday school workers assembled In the State. Five different States have been drawn upon to furnish speakers for the program. Thursday, October 14th, will be the big day. Tho railroads will run special trains carrying large delega tions of men who will go with bands and banners to take part in a big parade made up entirely of men be longing to adult bible classes. Gov. Stuart will be the guest of honor and address a mass meeting at night. Friday afternoon, Oct. 15th, tho special feature will be a parade of children from tho Sunday schools of Harrlsburg and vicinity.

TIM VWC PAIIIUTV'Q 47th ANNUAL FAIR OVER 7,000 PEOPLE IN ATTEND ANCE ON WEDNESDAY. The Wayne County Agricultural Society held their annual fair on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday of this week. On Monday there was a good attendance, it being the opening day and exhibitors was busy getting ready their exhlb its. Tuesday was Children's Day all school children being admitted free and the number present was exceedingly large; the young people were in evidence everywhere, and to say that they had the "time of their life" was putting it mildly. The exhibits were far ahead of any previous meeting, both in number and quality. We expect In our next issue to give a detailed account of the exhibits. The cattle portion of the fair was excellent. The pigeon and poultry display was the great est ever held here, but lack of room and accommadatlons prevented this portion of the fair being more at tractive and better appreciated. Gas engines and farm machinery of all description were well represented. The hardware men of Honesdale had exhibits that attracted attention. Spettigue had a guessing contest for a Lehigh range in progress. The lucky one guessing the number of shingle nails in a sealed bottle is to get the range. The midway of amusements was filled with the usu al class of entertainers, and they all seemed to be making money. The races which we print below were ex citing well contested and kept the spectators interested up to the last heat in the last race. Everybody was good-natured; no disturbance or disorder and the society is to be congratulated on the successful carrying out of their program. The 2:18 race on Tuesday after noon was a good one but the other horses in the 2:40 race were out classed by Billy, owned by H. H. Wilson of Willlamsport, who took three straight heats in 2:24,4, 2:22 and 2:21. There were four other horses in the race as fol lows: Sylvia Burgle, entered by Henry Theobald of Honesdale; Alice Rellly, Martin Galvin, Hones dale; Eclipse, J. K. Hornbeck, of Enuinunk; Winnie Lou, L. A. Pat terson, Carbondale. Results as fol lows: ! Billy, r. g . 1 1 . 2 3 Eclipse, ch. s Winnie Lou, b. n. . Sylvia Bargla, s. m.

She was allowed to work behind the others in the other heats and kept well up to the bunch. Billy Wilton was entered by John Congdon, of Smyra, N. Y.; Baron O., by Levi Patterson, Carbon dale, RIcand by D. G. Underwood of Deposit,; Lizzie R. by E. Schoon maker, of Hurleyville, N. Y.

Henry Theobald's Syl via Bargia showed up well In the second heat, but on turning to score in the third the sulky was overturn ed, and both horse and driver got a fall. Sylvia in another sulky started well but broke on the lower turn and ran clear to the upper turn before being brought under control, and was distanced. The other horses were Eclipse, entered by J. K. Hornbeck, Equinunk; Winnie Lou, L. A. Patterson, Carbondale; Lyndon, R. W. Gardner, Lock Shel drake, N. Y.; Lady Huff, N. C. Goff, Mongaup Valley, N. Y. Results'.

He is fair, and does not give the drivers much scoring, They appear to know that if they do not get where they belong, the bunch will go anyway. First Baptist Church.

In the early morning of Septem ber 29, 1909, Mr. Reuben Kimble passed from his earthly tenement at his home In Clark's Summit to the place prepared for him from the foundation of the world, eternal in the heavens. For the past five years ho has been a great, sufferer. He was a son of Levi and Polly Kimble and was one of a family of fifteen children. He leaves a wife and two children to mourn his loss, Lee and Corenn, both at home. His funeral obsequies (were attended in his own loved church on Sunday forenoon at 11 o'clock, and a fine, comforting discourse was given by his pastor, Rev. Mackeller. The text selected was from Phlllpplans 1st chapter, 21st verse: "For to me to live is Christ and to die Is gain." He was a member of the Methodist church and filled his place faithfully at every service when it was possi ble for him to be present. Besides his wife and two children he Is sur vived by four sisters and three brothers, as follows: Washington Kimble of Stroudsburg; Harmon of Mlnlslnk; Levi of Hawley; Mrs. T. Utt, of Dunmore; Mrs. James Swan of Uswlck; Mrs. William Altemeter of Arlington, and Mrs. Emmitt Decker of Sparrowbush. He was born February 8, 1857. A large concourse of friends were In attend ance to pay the last tribute of re spect. " The father's voice that was once heard is stilled; God has called him home to meet his loved ones gone before; we shall greet him ere long where flowers immortal bloom." Interment was made in Clark's Green cemetery. Council of Ordination. A council of the Wayne Baptist Association, composed oi twenty seven messengers, convened at the South Clinton Baptist church on Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock to consider the advisability or or daining to the work of the gospel ministry, Mr. Harry J. Baker, pastor-elect of the church. Rev. R. D. Mlnch was chosen moderator of the council, and Mr. V. H. Hall was elected clerk. Mr. Baker gave a very clear statement or his christian experience, his call to the work of the ministry, and his views of Bible doctrine. After a very thorough examination upon these three points, the council unanimously voted to recommend his ordination and the church arranged for the following order of exercises to bo carried out in the evening: Ordination sermon, by Rev. P. H. Lynch, of Carbondale; Prayer of Ordination, Rev. James Rainey, of Aldenvllle; Hand of Fel lowship to be extended by the father of the candidate, Rev. Thomas Ba ker; charge to the candidate, Rev. R. D. Mlnch, of Honesdale; charge to the church. Deacon E. K. Curtis, of Aldenvllle. Something Money Cannot Buy. Almost any woman would be ready to cry her eyes out with sheer envy if she could see Mabelle Gllnmn Corey's gowns, jewels and the thousands of luxuries with which her husband, the steel king, has sur rounded her. Even the most seri- ous-minded pf women, those who usually are not carried away by the follies and extravagances of the rich, would feel their hearts beat quicker if they could wander at will through the great French palace where the former actress now lives and see how her husband's wealth has poured out the sack of the whole world at her feet. She has money untold; she emulates royalty in the magniflcance of her surroundings; an army of ser vants wait on her. There is not a single wish that money can gratify that she need let pass unsatisfied. Yet Mabelle Gilman Corey is un happy. She has been unable to buy social recognition. The people she wants to know do not call. Mrs. Corey's years of life on the stage have made applause as the breath of life in her nostrils, and she misses it now. Surrounded by every magniflcance, she finds the days dull and heavy. She is now sure that the future holds no promise ot a change. In Paris usually the easiest city in the world for money to buy enjoy ment and for the people who have wealth to obtain social recognition, she is surrounded by a swarm of parasites. True, these leeches bear resounding names and titles. They talk' fluently and Intimately of royal ties and nobilities, but they have no standing whatever except among tho army of boulevardlers who live by their wits. The facile flattery of such as these has palled at last on Mabelle Gilman Corey. Only a fortnight ago In Paris she confessed all this to an American woman who Just has returned to New York. To this , woman, an old friend, Mrs. Corey poured out her tale of disappointment. She had to tell some one, and she craved sympatny. She told how it was long before she fully and finally un derstood that her social ambitions never could be realized. At first she thought that there might be a little' difficulty In getting an entrance into society, but that the Corey mil lions would be the magic key to all that she desired. She told of her disappointment and her despair. "I can't stand this life much long er," she said. "I am going back to the stage. That Is the place for me, after all. I love It and I have never ceased to love It. I ought never to have loft it. I care for It more than ever now. It is the one thing that Beems worth while." A Big Help to the South. If the announcement that a per fect cotton picking machine has been invented proves true, one of the most enormous strides of a cen tury in an industrial way has taken place. The average annual produc tion of cotton is valued in its finish ed state at a little over three bil lions of uollars. The picking is done by hand, and almost exclusively by negroes. They aro slow and their methods wasteful. When a crop Is raised, it is a matter of grave Importance to tho planter to get it successfully gathered and baled. The world's cotton market Is growing, and already demands a larger supply than the South Is able to produce. The Importance, there fore, of an Invention that would rid the planter of dependence upon the negro at harvest time is apparent. But the picking of cotton Is a kind of labor that does not adapt Itself readily to machine work. The crop does not ripen all at once, but grad ually, and therefore two or three pickings have to be made. To in vent a machine that will gather the bolls that have ripened and leave untouched the green ones Is a dif ficult task. Nearly five hundred patents on devices of that nature have been taken out, but cotton Is still picked by hand. This latest in vention, which is heralded as a suc cess, may be equally disappointing, but a demonstratlo'n of its capacity is sure to interest all who are Inter ested in cotton, and that means everybody. Sunday Services at M. E. Church. Services at the Methodist Episco pal church next Sunday as follows: Preaching by the pastor at 10:30 a. m. and 7:30 p. m. . Sunday School Rally Day services at noon. Epworth League at 6:30 p. m. Golden Wedding Anniversary. Mr. and Mrs. Benj. Gardner will celebrate on October 15th the fiftieth anniversary of- their wedding. This is an occasion that few people have the privilege of celebrating death, divorce, or sepcration Intervenes in 98 cases out of every hundred, but Mr. and Mrs. Gardner have lived happily for fifty years, have brought up an Interesting family and to-day enjoying most excellent health, bid fair to celebrate a great many more anniversaries, and If the well wishes of the many people who know them have any bearing on this prediction they will surely live to enjoy therm Mr. Gardner (or as we all call him Ben. Gardner) has piloted almost everybody who lives here In and out of the borough over tho Erie Railroad for years, and while he held the throttle as engineer no one can say but what he brought them home safely. FATAL ACCIDENTS IN STATE. Figures Are Made Public for the Year of 1908. While there was a marked falling off in the number of fatal accidents in the industrial establishments of Pennsylvania during 1908, as com pared with 1907, the non-fatal ac- i c tden's 0IQ than, doubled, accord ing to the annual report of Chief John H. Rockley of the bureau of industrial statistics, which was sent to the printer last week. The total number of deaths for 1908 was 1,348, as compared with 1,422 the preceding year; but, on the other hand, tho non-fatal acci dents increased from 6,145 in 1907 to 12,610 in 1908. "There is some consolation in the fact that many of the accidents were of minor consequence, and that the death list has been diminished," says the report, "but the need for more persistent care and caution on the part of both employer and em ploye is so apparent that it is use less to repeat the warning here. "Many safeguards have been pro vided, but to avoid disaster there must be a purpose born of common sense not to take foolhardy risks or Imprudently attempt to do things when they ore surrounded by known elements of danger. "More than half the accidents re ported," he adds, "are chargeable to such causes." The heavest losses were in the anthracite coal mines, where 618 Is devoted to looking over the results the year. In the soft coal mines 531 were killed and 3,005 Injured. Steel works killed 61 and hurt 1, 511. Blast furnaces reported 47 fatal and 374 non-fatal accdents. Rolling mills had 14 dead and 304 injured. In the cement industry 21 were killed and 359 Injured. In no other industry were more than ten killed, but the Injury re cord Includes the following: Steel castings, 311; Philadelphia textiles, 182; car works, 796; foundries and machine shops, 200; furniture fac tories, J09, glass factories, 800; lo comotlre shops, 323 J paper mills, Cumulative Danger. "When you have made a statement for which you are sorry, you should own up to it." said tho idealist "No," answered Senator Sorghum; 'It Is bad enough to say something you regret without following It up with an ex prosslon of self-distrust you are sure to regret still more."
