According to the Wayne County Herald the enthusiasm displayed at
the recent meeting of the candidates " showed that the Democratic party
is very much alive, and that they will present a united front to the Re
publicans from now. on until the election." Well they ought to. They all
live in Honesdale, with one exception, so it ought to be comparatively easy
for them to get together with that " solid front " thing. But when it
comes to election time, it will be seen whether the county supports a ticket
representing Honesdale or a ticket, such as the Republican ticket, which
represents the entire county.
FIRST WIRELESS MESSAGE ACROSS THE PACIFIC.
Wireless communication between San Francisco and Japan, a' distance
of 6000 miles, was established last week. It was the first time that a
wireless message has been received across the Pacific Ocean.
When the operator at Hlllcrest station caught the signals he made
them out to be the call for the Chive Maru, a steamer that was due Friday
at Honolulu. Ho answered the signal and learned that the call came from
the Japanese wireless station on Hokushu Island, in the northern part of
the Japanese Archipelago. The operators exchanged mssages for some
time. And yet they used to say that Marconi was crazy.
PICKPOCKETS AND FAIRS.
A gang of pickpockets reaped a rich harvest last week at the Colum
bia county fair which was held at Bloomsburg. Reported losses will
reach $2000, none of which was recovered. R. M. Lashellee, of Philadel
phia, lost $600 In checks and a large amount in cash. A policeman was
standing on a principal street when he felt a hand in his pocket. Making
a quick grab, he caught 'the hand. He knocked the man down, but In a
rush for a car the crowd separated the officer and the piekpocket, and the
latter made his escape. It would seem that the county seat of Columbia
might profit by observing how the county seat of Wayne keeps such un
desirables away from its fairs.
THE SERIOUS SIDE OF THE HOBBLE SKIRT.
There has been much fun poked at the so-called " hobble skirt " since
Its advent in the realm of Fashion that any serious remark made concern
ing it is subject to constant repetition in order to produce effect. That it
has become a serious proposition with manufacturers, however, Is shown
by the fact that the French Chamber of Commerce is being urged by mak
ers of cloth to take some action with a view to having designers make
changes In their models.
Everyone knows that much less cloth is used In making this peculiar
style of dress and the difference Is so great that many warehouses in
France are piled full of finished material which cannot be sold for the price
of the raw stuff. The result is that work has been scarce for spinners and
even the dyers are now suffering. Besides all this, undergarments, such as
underskirts that cant find room in a 'hobble, have been discarded. The
market for these is also over-stocked. Just what can be done about It is
not clear, but the manufacturers seem convinced that some change will
have to be made.
PEXNSVLVANIANS TO GET SHARE OF $180,000,000 ESTATE
Claiming title to a $180,000,000 estate left by the famous Dutch. Gen
eral, Paul Wertz, who died in Amsterdam in 1732, two hundred descend
ants of the general residing in the United States met in Illinois for the
purpose of devising a plan of presenting their case to the government of
the Netherlands. The meeting continued three days. Mrs. Estelle Ryan
Snyder, of Chicago, read a paper, entitled " The Wertz Family Their His
tory as far as known." Mrs. Snyder said:
" We have a most convincing claim to present. I have a plan to pro
pose whereby a working fund Will be accumulated to be spent by the elev
en lawyers among the heirs in waiting on the Dutch Government and
pushing our claim.
" A majority of heirs who are now meeting for the first time come
from Pennsylvania, 'by reason of the fact that Jacob Wertz, son of the
rich old general, settled In that State." 11
Seems to us that $180,000,000 will go quite a ways even when divided
among 200 descendants. Let's see It's only a trifle like $900,000
apiece that the Pennsylvania heirs will bring back with them. Ought to
be able to worm along on that for a while, hadn't they?
VOTEISMS.
Vote a straight Republican ticket.
Wayne county Is represented on
the Republican ballot. Honesdalo on
the Democratic.
If you want your party to win,
stand by it to a man. Don't give up
the fight in the eve of victory.
The Republicans of dear old
Wayne stood by their colors at the
primary election. If tho vote is as
solid In November and there is no
reason for it not being so, there will
be a clean sweep.
"VOTE."
Vote for men who are honest and
true,
Vote for men who are labeled "true
bluo"; ,
Men you have tested In sorrow and
Joy,
Whom the lusts of office cannot de
stroy; Men who will stand by promises
made
Men unbiased and never afraid
To raise their voico to tho 'highest
note
In defence of right for such men
vote.
Voto for men who have righteous
zeal,
Men of courage who dare reveal
The base and cowardly acts they see,
Then face the fire of musketry;
Men whoso purposes never swerve,
Men of honor, stamina, nerve;
Look for such men, howe'er remote,
Exalt your franchise for such men
vote.

GAME PLENTIFUL.
All kinds of game, according to
State Game Protector Kalbfus, will
bo more plentiful this year, In Penn
sylvania then they have been for
years and the hunting .season prom
ises to be good.
"Quail," said Dr. Kalbfus, "are
very plentiful except in the south
eastern counties, where the close
cultivation has driven them out.
Pheasants are numerous. In fact,
tho wardens, berry pickers and oth
ers -who have been out In the woods
In different parts of the State say
they are frequently discovered In
groups lnstend of only In pairs as
pheasants usually are found.
"Wild turkeys are first rate and
deer ai in greater number than they
have been for many years. Bears
are reported to be numerous, also
squirrels aro fairly plentiful and rab
bits seem to be everywhere." ,
Tho Game Commission has al
ready experienced some trouble in
enforcing the game laws.
ARRIVED LAST WEEK- ,

person of Alfred Tennyson Dickens,
arrived in Boston last week on the

Dickens was In America In 1842, and

Notes" and Indirectly In "Martin
Chuzzlewit." Like his father, the
younger Dickens Is here to lecture.
There Is something In his appear
ance which will recall the elder, and
although he has not the beard nor the
flashing eyes, the prominent brow

simple and unassuming ways of his
father. Alfred Dickens has spent
most of his life in Australia, going
there at the age of 20.
