man; Polt, second baseman; Tu

The N. Y. American of re
cent date contains a story of Inter
est to Maple City folks, since the
mother of Benjamin Heine was for
merly a Miss Clara Falk, Hones
dale. The article follows:
Benjamin Heine, of No. 503
Broadway, Xew York, ln the whole
sale line, took his old friend Flor
ence W. McCarthy, (a man), who is
a Baltimore lace cerchant, aboard
the White Star liner Adriatic yester
day, Mr. McCarthy starting on a
European tour.
Mr. Heine dashed down the gang
plank at the "ail-ashore" bugle, and
ran Into another man hurrying
aboard. When the New Yorker got
to the bottom of the plank ho re
membered the man he had bumped
was R. Walter Powell, a merchant
of St. Joseph, Miss., who used to be
a chum of both McCarthy and him
self, but whom neither had seen for
twenty-five years.
Thereupon Mr. Heine dashed to
the wireless station and sent these
messages:
"McCarthy, aboard the Adriatic:
Bon voyage. Pleasant Summer
abroad and safe return. Introduce
yourself, my compliments, Mr. Pow
ell, aboard."
"Powell, aboard Adriatic: Wish
you bully good trip. Introduce
yourself Mr. McCarthy, aboard, with
my compliments."
"I hope they meet and have a
good time together, for they are
both first class fellows," said Mr.
Heine after the "wireless Introduction."

Hawley Has New Popular
Dance
KNOWN AS THE "QUITO" DANCE
AND IS QUITE THE HACK.
Down In Hawley the mosquito
Is king. Everybody is fighting him,
but he still relgneth. He Is no re
spector of persons and treats all
alike. It is amusing to watch tho
victims stand first on one leg and
then on tho other, scratching the
back of their legs with the too of
their shoes. It Is called "qulto"
dance and only those who have been
bitten by the long-billed pest can
successfully take the different steps.
The dance Is becoming more and
more popular and the numbers aro
increasing dally. "Swat" Is also
another well known gesture and Is
practised by several others who
cannot do the "qulto" dance. Some
people, however, have become so pro
ficient that they can go through all
the motions at the same time. Tho
busy mosquito sings on and only
laughs at his victims when an ef
fort of "swat" Is tried.
There have been no signs of this
pestilential visitor ln Honesdale un
til they were Imported here via the
Erie railroad, riding in first-class
style, some of them occupying seats
in the Pullman car. They aro here,
however, but unlike they are ln
Hawley, where many of them weigh
a pound and climb the trees and
bark.
The mosquitoes are driving tho
city guests from Blooming Grove and
other Pike county resorts. A char
tered Pullman brought a number of
New York people to Glen Eyre ono
day recently and after staying one
night at Blooming Grove the party
entered automobiles and motored
back to New York.
