siderable business of Importance that
will be of vital Interest to Wnyno

help that the company would not
manufacture over 200 pair of shoes
per day for the first six months. Ho
visited tho vacated Honcsdalo Shoe
company's Into factory and was very
much Impressed with the building.
Tho Board of Trade discussed the
proposition nnd it was tho consensus
of opinion that It was a first-class
one, as tho company did not ask any
bonus from tho town. Tho secretary
was Instructed to correspond with
the parties, offering a flattering in
ducement to tho proposed company
to locato In Honesdale.
Tho other proposition was from
the Crop Improvement Bureau, of
Chicago, In which said bureau of
fered to pay $1,000 to an agricul

posed farm bureau in Wayno county
tho second year and after. It is the

THE COMING OF "FRECKLES."
r ' Great care has been taken by
Manager A. G. Delamater in selecting

roles In tho dramatization of Gene
Stratton-iPorter's novel "Freckles."
Tho most difficult role to fill was that
of Freckles as it not only required
an exceedingly young, handsome ac
tor but one who was possessed of a
Grand Opera voire as well. At
least a hundred different applicants
were interviewed beforo ono was se
lected. Thero aro very few Scotch
artists in America at present disen
gaged, therefore it was necessary to
send to England for actors to play
Mr. and Mrs. Duncan. Tho other
parts are portrayed by American ac
tors and actresses all of whom are
thoroughly familiar with tho types
prevailing In the locale whero the
story is laid.
