Possibility of I'jiper Mill Pencil
Swindlers Abroad.
In the absence of the pastor, G.
Robinson of Fortenia preached a
very Interesting sermon Sunday.
It Is rumored that a paper mill
Is about to be located here, as some
capitalists from Wllkes-Barre were
here the latter part of last week
looking over a 100-acre tract heavi
ly timbered with just the kind of
trees they are looking for, mostly
basswood and poplar. The tract Is
owned by Mr. Meaken of Wllkes
Barre. As the Bobolink was their
guide, he knew by their talk that
the site and timber were just what
they have been looking for some
time. The 100 acres comprises a
fine lot of second growth white ash,
basswood, poplar, black cherry,
hard and soft maple, hemlock and
hickory.
The residents or farm women of
this vicinity were very much taken
In last Saturday by a couple of
peach venders claiming to hail from
Carbondale and selling from 75
cents to $1.00 per basket. Their
load was 'very well put up as to
looks yes, they looked fine so far
as tho eye could reach down into the
basket but as the slippery eels had
no use for tho basket you purchased,
of course they didn't want the pur
chaser to empty the basket. Every
woman that was buncoed out of her
hard-earned money is up in arms,
with blood In her eye, so if the same
party should send another load this
way with a different gang, don't for
get that every basket purchased b-
me angry women win oe careiuny
examined to the bottom. Wo do not
look for the same men In this sec
tion again, as it would be very warm
for them if they came.

Mayor Thinks. Clmnce To Get Cnr
houdnlo Outfit Too Good to Lose.
CARBONDALE, Sept. 13. Mayor
John Kuhbnch of Honesdalo and
William Vogel of Mlddlotown wero
In this city tho other day negotiat
ing for tho purclinso of tho horses
aud cqulpmont of the Hendrlck Hook
and Ladder compnny. Tho Middle
town lire department is anxious to
secure tho tenm of horses nnd Hones
dalo will purchaso tho hook and lad
der truck If a suitable price can bo
agreed upon. Tho third horse is
now being UBed by tho Mitchell
Hose company and will bo sold In
tho nenr future to the highest bid
der. A lengthy meeting was hold in tho
office of Mayor Sahm between the
Honesdalo and Mlddlctown represen
tatives and a committee of tho Hen
drlck Hook nnd Ladder company.
The commltteo of the Hooks will
hold a meeting nnd It Is quite prob
nble tho offers jnnde by the two
representatives will bo nccepted.
Mayor Kuhbach today admitted
ho was over to Carbondale on this
matter and ho added that he went
because tho council, which talked
over the possible purchaso at the
last meeting, wanted him to see tho
property on the spot. Tho Mayor Is
strongly in favor of buying the Car
bondale flro outfit, which includes
two flno 35-gallon extinguishers,
three horses, and all necessary lad
ders and equipment. Tho outfit
cost Carbondale ?4,500, tho Mayor
says, and can be bought for $2,100,
though It never has been used
"I don't think any final action
will bo taken before the October
council meeting," said Mayor Kuh
bnch at his place of business this
morning. "The No. 3 company will
have a meeting tonight, at which
time the Hendrick proposition will
bo discussed, I expect."
Honesdale If she gets this $4,500
flrefightlng apparatus will profit by
Carbondalo's spite. Carbondale needs
the outfit, but tho Carbondale coun
cil and the Carbondale mayor, A.
L. Sahm, are at loggerheads about
all the time and tho council will not
stand for anything the mayor wants
or does. If it were not for this
Sahm-council mess tho outfit would
not be In tho market at any price,
Mayor Kuhbach says.
Tho $4,500 purchaso money was
raised by Mayor Sahm personally
and he feels soro that the horses,
extinguishers and ladders are lying
idle. He has had some clashes of a
rather sensational character with the
city fathers and at a, council meet
ing in August he made a stir by
saying he thought it might be a good
plan for him to throw up his job
and let Carbondale try the commis
sion form of government now being
agitated in Harrlsburg, Williams-
port, Johnstown and other cities.
"Sahm would rather see the stuff
come here than have It go to Mid
dletown," said Mayor Kuhbach. "He
told me so when I was over there
the other day."
Ho added that the chance seemed
to him too good for Honesdale to
pass by.
Joe Stephens Dreams n Dream.
Mr. Editor:
I had a little dream last night and
it was all about the Wayne county
fair. The flrst two gentlemen I came
in contact with were E. Gammell and
Ralph Martin, both members, I be
lieve, of the Wayne County Agrlcul
turo society. Mr. Gammell said:
"Now, Mr. Martin, I have been In
formed that you are very much In
terested in tho poultry department
and you want to promote the interest
in poultry culture In Wayne county.
I have the same Interest In cows,
pigs, horses and goats as you have in
chickens, turkey, guinea hens and
pigeons. Now I think that if you
would call on all the lawyers, print
ers and practical business men of
Wayne county and ask each one of
them to give from 25 cents to $1 on
the breed of birds that they are most
interested in, that is, $1 on tho best
Rhode Island Red, male or female,
Leghorn, Wyandottes, MInorcas, Ply
mouth Rocks or any breed, then some
of the people would become Interested
in the special and It would cause a
whole lot of Interest in tho county.
"A bag of grain, some poultry net
ting, a pair of shoes, a pair of pants
or, if some of tho glass industries
would offer a cut glass bowl or pitch
er to be won three successive times
and then to become owner of the
same on the best bird in show, or If
they would liko to promote some
special breed of their choice."
Ho also said "Let every man glvo
what bo wants to and under his own
conditions but get tho special premi
ums out In tho county papers before
tho fair, so that every poultryman
can know on what breed to get
busy."
Mr. Mnrtin said:
"Thank you,. .Mr. Gnmmell. Those
are things of importance that never
camo boforo my notice and probably
next year It will bo wise for me to
look after this Important matter."
Mr. Martin Bald: "Mr. Gammell, I
do not know what advice to glvo you
in return that might promoto tho In
terest In cows, pigs, horses and
goats."
Rev. J. B. Cody behind tho fence
shouted:
"Say, Martin, offer a good eggnog."
This being too much for my nerves,
on reaching out my baud I awoke,
only to find it a dream.
