" It isn't the $3," she rattled on, " but I wouldn't want to forfeit ?3." Prof, John T. Watklns, Scranton, pried open the annual week's vaca tion period by putting the pedagog ues through a course of vocal sprouts. He opened up with hymn number 93 beginning " Hero am I full of joy." Tho first response he got wan anything but of an oh-be-Joyful nature. Gradually, however, tho ocal chords were loosened, the jaws opened wide, tho tongues stuck out, and music, melodious mu sic, filled tho room.

(Continued on Page Eight) Honesdale's Chief Execu tive Summoned Tuesday OARHHIt OF PROMINENT CITIZEN AND POLITICIAN DROUGHT TO AN UNTIMELY END. John Kuhbach, Mayor of Hones dale, died at his home, 901 Court street at 6:30 Tuesday morning, af ter an illness of about six weeks' duration. Mr. Kuhbach was taken with lagrlppe about tho first of Oc tober. He regained sufficiently to go out, but suffered a relapse and had since been confined to .his bed and had gradually grown weaker un til tho end came Tuesday morning. Mr. Kuhbach was born in Texas township September 12, 1865, and was therefore 46 years of age. He received his education in tho town ship school and was graduated from the Honesdale High school in 1885 with great honor. He taught sohool at ieonardsvllle for two terms and was a director in his homo township from 21 years of age until he moved into Honesdale. During his com paratively short life Mr. Kuhbach has been very active. He has held positions of trust and has rapidly climbed the ladder of success. He served as deputy postmaster for Wil liam H. Krantz, was bookkeeper for tho Durland-Thompson Shoe Com pany, clerked two years In C. C. Jadwin's pharmacy and was also a bookkeeper with the Delaware and Hudson Canal company. In 1885 he registered with Hon. P. P. Smith as a law student, but did not devote his entire tlmo to his studios until 1894. Ho was admit ted to the Wayno County Bar Oct. 7, 1895. Since that time he has been manager of tho Honesdale branch of the Central Pennsylvania! Browing company. Mr. Kuhbach In his private and public life has endeared himself to every person with whom he came In contact. He was a man of broad, liberal views on all questions, in which the community were interest ed and never failed to take a deep Interest In tho welfare of tho town and county. lie was .indefatigable In his exertions to make Honesdale greater and more progressive. He expended his money freely upon every occasion whore any hope of realizing tho interests of the town or the community In which he lived might be attained. While in the Pennsylvania Legislature thouch ono of the youngest members, his In fluence was felt In the making of tne laws by which the people of this Commonwealth wero to be gov erned and more particularly was his lntorest centered In laws affecting our own county. Mr. Kuhbach was democratic from principle and since ho arrived at the age of manhood has always taken a deep lntorest in tho political affairs of tho commun ity, though partisan to the extent of vigorously supporting his own par ty, so judiciously and diplomatical ly was this done that he never lost the good will of tho opposite party, and whenever Mr. Kuhbach was a candidate for office, party lines seemed to Do disregarded and only his personality considered. His disposition was always cheerful and apparently happy; under the most adverse circumstances, no person could ever detect any outward marks or any Indication of displeasure; to his friends and those who knew him best ho was most affable and con genial and no conditions could arise when his genial good nature was ever In any way changed or clouded. His education had been carefully at tended to In early life; his store of knowledge which he garnered ac cumulated as years went on. As a speaker he was ready, forcible and clear; ho had a grasp on all public questions far above the ordi nary. His early death will be mourned by every person in this community and his bright, cheerful personality will be missed by all. He was a chairman of the Demo cratic county committee for two years. In 1893 ho was elected to the legislature and served ono term. He also was prominently Identified with a number of fraternal societies and was interested in .home indus tries. He held membership In the following lodges: Knights Templar, Anthony Wayne Chapter Royal Arch Masons, Honesdalo Lodge, No. 218, Preo and Accepted Masons, Freedom Lodge of Odd Fellows, Fraternal Or der of Eagles, Oslek Tribe of Red Men, Knights of the Hoptasophs and a Granger. He was also affiliated with the Farmers and Mechanics Bank, being a director of same; was vice-president of tho Wayno Cut Glass company, of Towanda, and also vice-president of the Scranton Fire Insurance company, of Scranton. Mr. Kuhbach joined Company E, Thirteenth Regiment, N. G. P., in 1886, and In 1894 was promoted to battalion adjutant. He resigned that office to accept the second lieuten ancy of Company E. The deceased Is survived by a wife, mother and one sister, Mrs, W. A. Sluman. Tho funeral services will bo held from his late home Thursday after noon at 2 o'clock. Rev. W. II. Swift. D. D., officiating. The Knight Temp lars will have charge of the funeral with Masonic Bervlces at the grave. Interment in Glen Dyberry cemetery. Many Counties Back Into the Fold Again ROCKWELL IS DUMPED HIS DIS TRICT GOES REPUBLICAN; AINEY'S GREAT VICTORY. Tho success of tho Republicans is swinging back Into the Republican column counties that went to Bernr last fall, the defeat of tho Demo cratic ticket In the county of James I. Blakslee, secretary of tho reorgani zation end of tho Democratic Stat committee, and tho Important posi tion secured by the Socialists in sev eral counties aro features of the re cent election. Tho votes polled will probably ag gregate more than In the guberna torial election last year, In the opin ion of many observers, although it will bo a long tlmo before this caa bo estimated. From all accounts the constitu tional amendments have not been followed up very closely, and it will take tho official tabulation at th Capitol to determine tho matter. The swinging of Carbon county, a Democratic stronghold, into the Re publican column Is causing muck comment. This county Is in tho dis trict of Congressman A. Mitchell Pal mer, another of whose counties, Northampton, also shows signs of disagreeing with Its Democratic rulers. Carbon county did nothing half way. It just went Republican. In Berks, another Democratic cita del, the Republicans have won Read lug and made big gains, while the Socialists have cut a figure In city and county, having the balance of power In city councils and som petty offices. In New Castle, a Socialist has bee elected mayor, defeating Walter S. Reynolds, former member of thS Legislature. Among the counties that showed bhoy wore strongly Republican again are Allegheny, which olected a whole Republican ticket and wiped out the Keystpners; Montgomery, Blair, Cambria and Delaware with Bucks, which got away from the Domocrate on county offices. Delaware was claimed for the Democrats by some of tho reorganization Democrats who lined up with Berry on tho Judge ship.. They got beaten about 4,000. Sohuylkill is Republican, the losses of last fall having been wiped out, while in other counties where the Keystoners promised to deliver many votes to the Democrats, they not only Ingloriously failed, but had trouble to find themselves. Lancas ter county is once more so heavily Republican that it would be hard to find iBen Davis, the reorganization Democrat. In Lebanon county the Republi cans swept everything before them, notwithstanding the visits of Berry and some other spellbinders. The overwhelming victory of W. D. B. Ainey, of Susquehanna, a friend of Stato Treasurer C. F. Wright, for Congress, has simply de monstrated the faot that the people of Susquehanna, Bradford, Wyoming and Wayno are Republicans when it comes down to a fight. Congress man 'Palmer made every effort to elect O. H. Rockwell, a Democratlc Keystoner, In order to show the trend of affairs In Pennsylvania, and both ho and Blaksleo visited the county and forced their ideas on the Democrats. They imported Wood row 'Wilson, Champ Clark and otheri and tne result was that Alney car ried every county and had a major ity of 3,300. This Is tho worst blow that the re organization end of the Democrats have had and shows plainly that the claims of strength, based on last fall's upheaval were vain indeed. Furthermore the Democrats of the Fourteenth district will not stand for dictation. -Harrisburg Telegraph. DEPOSIT POSTOFFICE ROBBED. The postofllce at Deposit, N. Y., was robbed last Thursday morning. Tho safe door was blown off nn4 stamps and money to the value of $85 was taken. No trace of tha burglars can be found. The robbers gained entrance by taking off a metal shutter from a rear window and then prying the window open with an Iron bar. They blew the safe open by tho usual nltro-glycerlne process filling th crack around the door with soap and then pumping the explosive inside. Ono door of the safe, which Is a larg one, was blown half across the room, knocking over sorting racks and de molishing other furniture in its path. This is probably tho earn gang that visited Pleasant Mount a week or so ago. Ofllcers Sworn In Jan. 1, 1012. The different candidates recently elected will take their respective oaths of office on Monday, January 1, 1912. They will appear before Register and Recorder 'E. W.
