The Alerts added another victory to their list on Saturday, defeating the Carbondale Tigers by the score of 8 to 1. The game was rather poorly played as there were ten er rors and only six hits made by both teams combined. Kupfer's steal of home was one live wire spark in the game. It should be noted, however, that the rifle shot throwing of Catcher Shields Is discouraging base stealers. The tabulated score: ALDENVILLE. It. H. O. A. E.

OAKLEY IIKOOK, l'n., July (I Tho congregation of the Carley Brook Methodist church, and Rev. J. H. Boyce, pastor, worked assudi ously all day the Fourth to raise funds to improve their church by holding an old-fashioned celebra tion on the farm of Mrs. William Penwarden. The net proceeds were $45. The day was a scorcher, tho mercury registering D7 degrees in the shade on the picnic grounds. The intense heat, however, did not prevent a large number of Hones dale people from traveling over the hot and dusty roads to help the good people of that vicinity. Hones dale people always enjoy going to Carley Brook and mingling among the good folk of that neighborhood. They are all hospitable and one feels better after a visit over there. Grandma Penwarden, that dear old woman, was upon the ground and enjoyed the affair with other mem bers of her family and visitors. Underneath fine shady trees were set two long tables laden with the best there was to eat and it was served in first-class order. Ice cream and cake were also on the menu. My, how good that ice cream tasted and It was made on the grounds, too, fifteen gallons all told. Candies, cigars, soft drinks, etc., went the rounds. Gallons of liquid drinks were consumed during tho dny, but tho good people had enough and to spare. The boy scouts and master were present and took part in the festivi ties of the day. During tho after noon tho boys entertained tho pic nickers with a few field maneuvers. Baseball was also enjoyed but it was not entered into with the vim and enthusiasm that would have been shown had it been cooler. In the evening tho memorable day was brought to a close with a beau tiful display of fireworks. There were about forty persons from Honesdale. Tho scouts walk, ed, other people came In automo biles and still another coterie en Joyed (7) a mid-day ride on a hay rigging. All bad an excellent time THE APPEARANCE OF THE LO CUST. The Seventeen Year Locust or Cicada has appeared In Pennsylvania from the Susquehannr. river east ward, and promptly upon schedule time, ns predicted by State Zoologist H. A. Surface in communications early this spring, notwithstanding the fact that many persons thought this could not be possible, as they did not consider this a "locuse year." Professor Surface explained that this was not the re-appearance of tho 1002 .brood, but was another brood coming from eggs laid In the twigs of the trees In 1S94. State Zoologist Surface Is making a special study of this brood of the Cicada or Seventeen Year Locust, and requests information to be sent to him at Harrisburg, giving the dates of appearance and disappear ance of the insects, some statements as to abundance, the amount of dam age effected, the extent of the area covered, the enemies observed, and other points that will help to make complete the records and a detailed study of these Insects throughout those portions of the Commonwealth In which they may appear. It is recommended either to cover small trees with cloth or netting or wrap Btrips of cloth around the trunks and larger branches of fruit trees three years of age or less, where these Insects are numerous. This is to prevent damage by pierc ing the bark and wood for the pur pose of laying eggs. They do not feed on the trees as Is popularly supposed. By the last of June they will have disappeared as suddenly as they came, and the young hatch ing from the eggs laid In the In jured places of the living wood will drop to the ground, and there feed on the roots of the trees during an other interval of seventeen years. THE POULTRY YARD. Very often the prettiest hen Is the poorest layer. Lawn clippings make an ideal summer greenfood ration. Lighter foods are best these warm day,s. Heavy food like corn heats the blood. All the old stock that is not want ed should now be disposed of before they go into molt. Eat some of the eggs yourself. If they are worth money to anybody, they are to you. Already the fowls are assuming a rusty appearance. It is getting near the molting season. The hen that lays where she hap pens to be, when she takes the no tion to lay, Is certainly setting a bad eggs-ample. Do not let up In your warfare against the destructive louse army. Lice are working havoc, and too se vere measures can not be adopted to destroy them. Use the small eggs. Give your customers the large ones. So shall they call you a square dealer and stick by you and bring you more and more customers. Besides, It's only fair and makes you feel better. Makes us laugh when the old rooster finds a worm and cackles over it till he gets all the hens in the yard around him and then just gob bles the worm up himself; but Isn't that about what lots of folks do? The growing cockerels should now be separated from the pullets, and the former given an extra allowance of feed. They will need this addi tional amount more than will the pullets in order that they can be kept growing. July Farm Journnl. KILLS SIGNED KY GOVERNOR. Governor Tener of Pennsylvania has signed the "full crew bill," which is the same as In New York state. The bill, which was hard fought by the railroad companies, provides that not less than six men shall be employed on trains of more than thirty cars.

Speaking in Now York tho other day to a number of uevspaper men, .Mayor Seldel, tho Socialist executive of Milwaukee, remarked sadly, "Child welfare tho city is hell for children. "We've got to And some way to got the children away from these baking pavements in the hot summer months. The problem is bad enough in our city of Milwaukee, where two miles from tho centre of town you are out in open country, but in New York the problem Is ter rific. There's a big problem for all of us." WASHINGTON'S DEATII. George Washington died the last hour of the day, the last day of the week, of the last month of tho year, of the last year of the last century. MRS. NATION. "Aunt" Carrie Nation had the soldier's understanding of the value of surprise. She moved swiftly and with force. When she wrecked a barroom, the cyclone was over, as a rule, before the objects of her at tack quite realized who and what she was. Arrest and prosecution were in tho nature of post mortems. They but recorded the coming of dis aster, did not save It or prevent its repetition. The smokers she as sailed, tho bibulous being she re viled, the occasional pedestrian up on whom she descended with the weight of a falling safe, were rarely prepared with other sheepish grin. Only once we have ever heard of "Aunt" Carrie being nonplussed. She met a young man upon the stnlrs of a newspaper oilice and shouted at him: "Sir, you're smok ing!" The young man gazed in as tonishment at the cigar in his hand, having politely removed It from the corner of his face, and said: "Why, so I am!" Mrs. Nation glared at him for a second and then swept In dignantly on, having for once, it would seem, no words to meet the situation. It would be as idle to say that Mrs. Nation did a great good as it would be foolish to say she did no good. Her victories could scarcely be considered final. But there was work for her hatchet. There was evil for the vigorous quality of her muscles to meet. She passed away leaving behind a memory of a pic turesque figure and some conception of the resignation of man In the presence of a femininity choosing to be a traveling devastation. Toledo Blade. CHICAGO'S RICHEST "WOMEN. Names of the three richest women in Chicago were made public on the completion of the personal property tax lists. They are: Mrs. Nettie F. McCormick, $2,595,000; Mrs. Em mons Blaine, $1,950,000; Virginia McCormick, $1,350,000. This is the value of personal property only, In cluding stocks, bonds, mortgages and jewels.

"Well, I guess my time has come," said Mrs. Latchla Williams, 10S years old, as she stood in the doorway of the home of her daughter, Mrs. Ellen Bannister, talking to a neighbor last week.
