his law oillce to the Dlramlck of
fices next the postolllce. Ho has been
in C. C. Jadwin's building 40 years
as lawyer-editor and lawyer, and his
departure seems Hko tho disappear
ance of a part of The Citizen's office
furniture. The management and
employes of this paper expect to
miss his delightful personality, but
they are glad that, having decided
to go. he is taking his desk, his
hooks and his convivial accomplish
ments to a spot not five minutes'
walk away. E. A. Pennlman, who
has been close to the judge since

away leisure minutes. Tho Woman's

will bo laid out overy day whero tho
gentleman can readily find it. Tho
ex-edltor keeps sharply In touch
with the topics of his time and a
day without plenty of Pennsylvania
papers would be a day In Tophet for
Pennlman. No wishes savo good
ones go with the two old boys as
they leave the home of; years behind.

Although ho is an undertaker,
J. Sam Brown Is woll supplied with
that saving sense of humor which
makes life worth living to rational
men. Ho figures ho Is 11000 bettor
off today than ho was Monday. Mr.
nrown admired Jim Jeffries, and ho
admits, that If ho had put any money
on tho Reno fight his bet would
have been pinned to tho bollor
makor whoso powerful jolts put
Jim Corbett and Bob Fitzslmmons
out twico apleco. "That's what I
call making J1000 by staying nt
homo on a holiday," says Mr. Brown,
who coupled this remark with an
observation that no man careful
about his dollars would bet without
going to tho training quarters to
take n peep at tho men. Little Jef
fries or Johnson money was put up
in Honesdale. Tho traveling men at
tho hotels all talked Jeffries, but they
only wagered cigars. The conclu
sive victory of the Galveston darkey
really surprised few Bportlng men
hereabouts.

baseball, Manager Murtha is dally

the fastest amateur aggregations of

state and in a recent tour through
this section they demonstrated their
ability to play ball. They played

Farmer Dennle drove to Way
mart one day last week and pur
chased a No. 1 hayrake, but before
leaving town with his rake tied to
tho rear end of his wagon he stopped
at Merchant Dlmond's to inquire the
price of eggs and, finding the egg
machine was still out of repair but
under way of being repaired, he
made up his mind to hustle homo
and gather up a few dozen of eggs
before tho machine raised the price,
not thinking of the rako until ho ar
rived home, when, to his surprise,
the rako was missing. Going back
over the road about one-half mile,
he found the rake turned out of tho
road In ns bad a shape ns the egg
machine at Merchant Dlratnd's
store, minus tho tongue. Steeno

Tho Buffalo Giants, tho fast
team Capt. Kupfer expected to
have hero Saturday, cannot come.
Tho captain got a telegram to that
effect Inst night nnd nt once com
menced telegraphing and telephon
ing for a team, but up to today he
had not succeeded In arranging a
Saturday game and tho probability
Is thero will bo none. A series with
White Mills for 125 a side has been
arranged and thofirst gamo will bo
played hero July 1C. Tho Hones
dale team is a good aggregation for
so small a place and should reccivo
better support. Tho White Mills
series will bo worth seeing and tho
crowds ought to turn out and cheer
tho homo nlno. Capt. Kupfer
would get Drlfton hero again, but
the expenso of procuring such a
team Is considerable. They enmo
for tho Fourth on a CO-por cent,
agreement and tho local management
lost money.
