Port Jervla Gazette. - -Honesdale has decided to give Carbondalo one inoro chnnco to play clean ball and will go to that city Sunday for the third game of the series. Capt. Kupfer, who wont up against a couple of stones In tho game of a week ago Sunday, said Wednesday that ho hoped thlB gamo might bo pulled off without any stones or hard feelings, nnd that ho rather expected tho gamo would go smoothly from tho fact that Umpire Burke, tho man who presided over Honesdale-Carbondalo games In years gone by nnd nlways suited both sides, has been engaged to hold tho Indicator. Tho Honesdale team will leave Sunday morning on the 11.15 and tho gamo will bo called at 2. A good-sized crowd will go from hore. The following Saturday Carbondalo will como hero for tho last game of the series. Rev. C. E. Cordo will preach in tho Baptist church Sunday morning, Rev. George S.

Her sister, Jennie, went over to see her this week and found the patient cheerful and encouraged. The Greater Honesdale Board of Trade will meet Friday night to hear M. E. SImons's committee on by-laws report. This report will bo taken up section by section and vot ed on.

It has been proposed by several men to widen Torrey park on West Park street and narrow the street by putting the walk on the outside of the trees. Then, It "is pointed out, two or three benches could be put in the park and the place would be homelike and inviting, both to residents of that part of Honesdale and to strollers along West Park street. The Improvement associa tion, one man suggested, ought to take hold of the matter. The street could be cut 10 feet at that point without doing any harm. Benches could be put where the walk Is now. The rye, wheat and hay crops were above the average In western Monroe this season; the weather was so fine that some of the grain was threshed direct out In the field, says the Monroe Record. Corn, buckwheat and potatoes are suffer ing from dry weather a condition made much worse by the uncom monly high winds of Monday and Tuesday, which beat down the oats, knocked off Immense quantities of unripe pears, apples and plums, and somewhat damaged garden truck. Farmers fear a prolonged drough and some are beginning to save water. The second grass crop is go ing to be short, while pasture is al ready growing poor. The blackberry crop at Hoad leys, Clemo and Lake Ariel is heavy and fine this year, say reports from that part of tho county, and the young folks expect to make a few dollars picking and shipping the luscious fruit for which that region is noted. One young fellow at Hoadleys had a piece of luck Sat urday when, chancing to be at tho G.45 Erie train, ho was hailed from tho window of tho smoker by a Honesdale retailer, who then and there contracted for all tho berries tho Iloadloy picker could send him. Tho latter said ho guessed ho could get 10 cents a quart for a while, at least,- and in that way make blackberrylng a moro profitable business than day work in tho hay field.

Rowland for tho defendant argue the Clinton bound ary lino caso of Albert A. Fltzo vs. John T. Mills. Tho arbitrators came to no decision then, but they slept on tho matter and arranged to meet again tonight to write out their finding. Tho land in dispute is not worth moro than $100, it is under stood, but Mr. Fltzo and Mr. Mills want to know where tho Odell place stops nnd tho Loomls placo begins. The evidence was heard Friday, as Btated in this paper Wednesday, and tho location of a former fence sup posed to have divided tho farms played an important part. Granville Bodle, the Tanners Falls smallpox suffer, is no worse. His Is the only case In tho villagp so far. The teachers of the Honesdale schools leave today for Elk Lake for their annual outing. They will spend 10 days at the Menncr cot tage. The following compose n party which leaves Sunday for a 10-daya' fishing trip to Rock lake: William Brady, William H. Bader, C. L. Dun ning, Henry Tlngley and Dr. F. W. Powell.

A Scranton business man says an automobile company doing nn extensive business has 8,000 ma chines In storage that they cannot sell, while another big company Is on the brink of a receivership. Many banks are refusing loans where the purchase of nn automobile is in tended. The thirteenth census Is de veloping an unexpectedly large growth of the smaller cities of the country, nnd it is now believed by the census officials that no fewer than CO places will be added to the list containing a population of 25,000 and over. The last census showed 1G1 such cities. Alice Rodgers, 27, Clarence Rodgers, 10, and Horace Rodgers, 20, all children of William Rodgers of Cottage street, have typhoid fever. Dr. Grlffen Is attending them. Clara Breidenstein, 12, a daughter of Fred Breidenstein, has diphthe ria. Dr. Griffin is attending this case also. Engineer A. W. Long of the state highway department was here Wednesday and made the supervis ors of Texas township a proposition that the state and the township put asphalt oil on the Seelyvllle and Bethany state roads, the cost, which Is $C0 a mile, being divided equal ly. Asphalt oil has a solidifying ef fect and keeps the macadam from "ravelling" in hot, dry weather. State Highway Inspector J. M. Hale, who is here on the Dyberry road, to remain until that 9500-foot stretch is completed In October or November, Is a firm believer in the efficacy of asphalt oil, which was been tried out successfully on many of the state roads whose construc tion he has watched. The Texas supervisors have Mr. Long's proposi tion under advisement. Between 200 and 300 people, parishoners of Rev. C. C. Miller, who on Sunday was Installed pastor of the Lutheran church, Wednesday evening gathered In the parlors of the church to shake hands with Mr. Miller and his wife and boy, whom they have already learned to es teem very highly. Miss Roeschlau played the piano, Miss Annie Rip pel sang, and Miss Eberhardt, the church organist, played and sang. Ice cream and cake were provided in abundance and it was 10 o'clock or later when the Millers received the congratulations of the last bevy of wellwlshers. The committee that planned the reception had George Rippel at its head, but the women of the church helped the men very materially, not only with the re freshments but also In the work of arranging the decorations. They used plenty of ferns and cut flow ers and the effect was decidedly pretty. Mr. Miller admits he likes Honesdale Immensely. Mrs. Miller and Franklin Miller agree with him that It is a charming place to live. PERSONAL MENTION Frank Bell of Scranton was a call er in town on business Thursday. J. A.

(Continued from Page One.) where he interviewed miners and working people, his mission evi dently being the covering of an as signment from the Outlook to In quire into the' condition of the young people in the mining regions, just as he had the conditions surrounding the lives of young people In rural districts investigated when he was president. Well, he was on his job and wasn't out for a holiday or he probably would have taken advant age of the Invitation extended him to attend tho Merchants' day outing at Lake Lodore. Carbondale is disappointed, as naturally we would have liked to have been considered of enough Im portance with our 17,000 popula tion to have had him here. He had the dinner engagement- at 7 o'clock, however, and as he had worked so strenuously at every town coming up the valley, It was seen after the party reached Peckville that, owing to the condition of the roads, it would be Impossible to come here, make the Inspections Intended, and get back to Scranton In time to fill the engagement. The Colonel was working as hartl as any newspaper man covering an assignment, and deadly in earnest. A number of incidents were related in the papers of his meeting miners and the miners' wives, but none were quite so typically Rooseveltlan as at Peckville at the Bliss silk mill, where he made his last stop. He asked to be presented to the young women and little girls and he shook hands with each one of them. It came the turn of one of the forewo men, a young woman of foreign ex traction. She was Introduced as Miss Mary . Without any smirking or smiling to convey a compliment, the colonel said in kind but precise words: "Mary, you are a handsome young woman. How old are you?" "Nineteen, sir," she said. "Well, Mary, I think that in about another year now you ought to be getting married." "Snap" McDonald wns one of the first to get Into Col. Roosevelt's presence and was about to be Intro- duced to him by Father Curran of Wllkes-Barre, when the former president exclaimed: "Oh, yes; Mr. McDonald of Car- bondale." And he has probably met no less than a million of people sluce the time that McDonald, John Mitchell and John Loftus took lunch togeth er with him at tho ,Whlto House during the time the mlno strlko commission was investigating tho mine troubles in this region. Thero was no hesitancy in his manner, i Ho recalled the name as soon as ho i saw Mr. McDonald's face. j Monsignor Coffey and Judgo ' O'Neill were guests at tho dinner ' given In Mr. Roosevelt's honor by . Bishop Hoban at the Bishop's resl-' donee. Both were greatly pleased I with him. Tho judgo especially., usually reticent, spoko enthuslastl-1 cally of tho quality of a man Roose-1 volt appeared to ba upon personal ' contact with him. i A beautiful thing about tho char-1 actor of Roosevelt Is that ho makes I and holds nnd seems to appreclato so many .personal friendships. In this respect ho has not nn equal In any man on earth. Tho McDonald lncldont serves to illustrate! how ho retains his acquaintances In his memory. Ho has thousands of warm personal friends with whom ho is on lntlraato terms, and yet nono aro nearer and closer than tho friend ship mutually entertained between him nnd Fathor Curran and John Mitchell. Theso men ho met through their work for tho minora. Father Curran probably moro thnn any oth er man was responsible for tho president's lnterferonco in tho mine strlko nnd for tho appointment of tho commission. Roosevelt makes his friends from nmong tho friends of humanity. Anywhere there is a man working for tho welfare of his followmen, there Is n man who needs no other credentials for n claim on the former president's friendship. LOU!) HEARING IN CHAMBERS. (Continued From Pnge One). the village?" this pnrty was asked. "About 400 to 450," was tho an swer. "I didn't sign, but I pre sume at least half the village did sign." Millard Lord, it was simultaneous ly stated, started a petition to get his mother out. "How many signatures did Mil lard get?" was the next natural question. "Not nearly so many," said this talker from Equlnunk, who ad mitted he had no feeling against Leonn Lord. "She's always been nice to me," he remarked, and then he admitted i that the nntl-Leona feeling, though .ha)S not 80 strong as it was last ' , ,!, " rlSht "fter tl,e attack n Sike, was still In evidence In Equlnunk and through Manchester ownslilp An interesting sidelight on the case was supplied by an Equlnunk woman a woman, by the way, who was careful to explain that she bore Mrs. Lord no 111 will when she visited Honesdale on some shopping errands Wednesday. This woman declares It is all bosh that Leona Lord was or had been in love with Sam Reed, the man she always addressed affectionately as "Sammy"; that she coddled and en couraged Reed to his face and then made fun of the fellow behind his back. She even went so far as to say that many people in Equlnunk and Manchester believe she en couraged Reed with tjje deliberate intention of using him to help her fight out her old quarrel with her brother-in-law, Sike Lord, when the time came. "I've often heard her make fun of Sam behind his back," this wo man declared to a man who, she had been fairly warned, was a news paperman. "You can't make me believe Mrs. Lord was in love with Sam Reed. She only made him think so." 8 EVER INCREASING.

He saw the son of Leona Lord, the woman he likes, down in the ditch with William Lord pounding him. That got Sam's blood" up. The rest followed. Mrs. Lord was brought from the Jail at 1.55 by Sheriff Braman, with whom the prisoner chatted a little as they walked across the yard to the back door of the courthouse She wore a dark blue dress that fitted well, and she did not wear a hat. Millard Lord was at his moth er's side, but he did not hnvo to cheer her up. She seemed quite composed. There were about 50 men in the corridor, between the back entrance nnd the Judge's door. Five or six of them were lawyers not on tho case. Two or three were officials outside the regular courthouse group. Four were newspapermen. The correspondent of a Scranton paper had a kodak under his coat and he tried from the steps of Searle and Salmon's office to snap the Lord-Braman group as It left the Jail. They were too quick for him, however, and he didn't get a chance to press the button. At 2.10 Sheriff Braman notified the district attorney that the court was ready. The lawyers for Mrs. Lord, W. H. Lee and Frank P. Kim ble, were already in the judge's room. The witnesses were called In one by one to be examined. The knot of onlookers in the corridor hung on and talked In low tones.
