PAGE EIGHT THE CITIZEN, FRIDAY, APRIL n, 1913. ! ! j j j j j j j ! j j j -:Down Hawley Way-:- Some Things That Took Plnco When Ernest Kynn Had Served Ills Time Something More About Thnt Turtle Sign The Eddy is a Healthful Tlnco'to Live In Personals, and Other Stuff of More or Less Importance. J 4 J f "fa J ! "i J J i i i I J f I l "I I I' They sat around the banquet board And ate good things aplenty; Thoy smiled as Fales and Rodman talked, That happy crowd of twenty; But the happiest lad of all the bunch That ate that toothsome hash Was the lad whose serving-time was up, Tho lad with the bag of cash. HNE hundred dollars back N pay! That sounds mighty fine to us! How does It sound to you, boys? Well, If you would have some ex perience along that line, just make an application to tho G. B. B. A., bet ter known as tho Glass Bottle Blow ers' Association, for a position as ap prentice in one of the glass factories of tho land. If they take you on they will tell you that if you con tinue as an apprentice for Ave years they will then pronounce you a journeyman glass blower, will initi ate you in their branch of the G. B. B. A., and thoy will hand over to you the sum of Nino Hundred Hol lars that they have been piling up for you for tho Ave years you have been serving your apprenticeship. Most naturally, after a Ave years' apprenticeship, there Is joy in tho heart of the one who has served within two years of as long as Jacob, the patriarch, served for his wife, and then had one " put over " on him by getting tho wrong girl. But, we'll lot that go Jacob had to, and then he had pluck enough to do tho whole stunt over again in order to get the girl ho wanted. But, again, let me say that has nothing to do with this Hawley story at all. Now, we'll try it again. It is customary when an appren tice has Anlshed his time for him to give a banquet to the members of the' branch to which ho becomes a mem ber. Last week Ernest Ityan finish ed his topprenticeship, and on Sat urday night last ho gave a banquet, or "blow-out," as tho boys call them, at Hotel Relfler. They most natur ally went to that place for the rea son that the proprietor, Jlr. J. A. Baschon, used to be a glass blower himself, and he knew from experi ence just how to cater to their wants. Tho dining room was pret tily decorated with the colors of the branch, (purple and gold), and through the centre of tho room was a ribbon with the letters, Brunch 29, G. li. A. The decorating work was done by Mrs. Baschon and her daughter, Helen, and everybody de clared that the room was " as pretty as a picture." Miss Helen Baschon had charge of the dining room during the banquet, which was a four-course affair, and was most thoroughly enjoyed by tho guests that sat down at tho " festive board." Here are the good things the boys tackled: Cream of egg soup with Croutons Potato Salad Baked Beans Chicken Croquettes Oyster Patties Olives Lettuce Baked Ham with Dressing Cabbage Salad Green Peas Celery Mixed Pickles Two Kinds of Cheese Rye Bread Wheat Broad Raspberry Shortcake Chocolate and Cocoanut Cake Fruit and Coffeo Vanilla and Chocolate Ico Cream After full justice had been done the menu, Dr. Geo. T. Rodman made an address to tho boys Which was listened to with much pleasure. The Doctor was followed by Mr. C. F. Fales, of Railway, N. J., who also 1 1 .1 .1 .1 i . 1 1 . umivuiuu uu uuuross wuiun wua greatly appreciated by all who heard It. After tho speeches had been made, and the many beauties of the miniature donkey, that had been thoughtfully placed on the, table at the place of tho one who was giving the banquet, had been sufficiently admired, and the fragrant Havanas had been most thoroughly enjoyed, the happy party repaired to the par lor where music was in order, mem bers of the Branch rendering sever al vocal selections in a way that was far from being amatuerish. Those present at the banquet wore; Harry Kays, President. Peter Hose, Fred Roso, Charles Rose, Charles Lyons, Peter llcilinnu, Edward Seller, Joseph Seller, John Miller, Michael Censon, Mlchnel Kelelier, August Neumann, Martin King, Bruno Hitter, William Shercr, Henry Turner, Ernest Hynn, J, A. Baschon, O. T. Hodinun, M. I), O. V. Fales. v5 J J 0 J J J & && && && && && All who wore at tho "blow-out" were unanimous in declaring that the affair was one of the most en joyable events of the kind that thoy ever attended, or that was ever held in nawiey. Tho Eddy is a Healthy Locality, if You PIcoso. Wow, how Is this? Elevated lands and locations are supposed to be more healthful than flat and low places. But, like all such supposl tions and so-called rules there aro notable exceptions, and there Is one right hero in Hawley. At the. Eddy Tesldod, Up to the death of tho lata Josoph Solllday, four people, all clear and away be yond the allotted time of man seventy years namelyi Frederick Meisinger, the youngest of the quar tette, who is in his 87th year; Jos. Solllday, who was buried on Tuesday, who was in his 80th year; Mrs. T. V. Taft is in her 80th year, and Mrs. Joseph Solllday is In her 02nd year. All of these peoplo have for many years lived at the Eddy, which is the lowest point In tho borough. Don't Forget That Tuesday Is Our Day in Hawley. Tuesday of each week Is tho day when the writer of this department visits Hawley in quest of matters per taining to the town and Its suburbs. It will be well to make a note of this fact, and as he is making his rounds do not hesitate to stop him and give him your news items and other mat ters of a business or news character. Now, don't forget. That Turtle Sign Was a Failure. Say! The " dear reader " has one over on us, all right! Tho writer hereof has generally regarded weath er prophecies and season prognosti cations as belonging to that class that Is denominated as " old wives' fables," or " old women's -whims" but he sometimes " falls " to those very things, in fact becomes an easy mark. He looked upon all such, things as " signs " and " moon " planting loro as the veriest non Bense, and generally laughs when ho sees the new moon over' his left shoulder, regardless of the ill luck that such a view is supposed to bring There have been others who saw tilings along that line. John Gay, the English poet, who died before the historical " tea party " that pre luded the American Revolution took place, evidently failed to believe in " signs," and he expressed his ideas in some pretty good poetry, too. For instance, in his poem, " Fables," he says: "Alas! you know the cause too well; The salt is spilt, to me it fell. Then to contribute to my loss, My knlfo and fork were laid across; On Friday, too! the day I dread; Would I were safe at home, in bed! Last night (I vow to heaven 'tis true) Bounce from tho Are a coffin flow. Next post some fatal news shall tell; God send my Cornish friends be well!" Well, a week or two ago, on a de lightfully warm Spring morning while on his way from Hoadleys to Hawley- he saw several turtles sun ning themselves on logs, evidently not caring whether school kept or not, and, never having seen turtles out so earjy in tho season he con cluded that their appearance must mean that there would be no more ice, and that it was time to plant potatoes and begin shivering over tho forthcoming Ice bill. Well, you all know what has taken place since then ice, snow, frost, overcoats, everything from a flood to a bliz zard; and we have changed our minds about the possible truth that might lie behind the early appear ance of turtles; unless tho truth points towards plenty of cold weath er. In fact, after this when we see big turtles sunning themselves on logs in March we shall bo Inclined to suspect that they are out chasing up old Winter, in fact that they are acually coaxing him to linger right along all Summer. Frederick Meisinger is Sick nt His Eddy Home. Frederick Meisinger, one of tho oldest residents' of Hawley, is seri ously ill at his home at the Eddy. Mr. Meisinger has been a very active man all the years of 'his life. The writer has known him since 1874, and he was an old resident of Haw ley at that time. For years he was an employe of the D. & H. Canal Co., and ran a boat on " the raging canal." At that time he resided on the East side of the town. After years as a boatman he purchased the Eddy Hotel which 110 conouctea for many years. Then ho took up the real estate business, ana sold many Wayno County farms to peo plo in the larger cities. As a real estate man ho was known as a hustler, and many and varied are tho stories that are told of tho sales ho made. Mr. Melsinger's many friends are anxious for his speedy re covery.

Business Is Brisk nt The Brilliant Shop. C. C. Lozier has opened his cut ting shop and it has already become quite a busy place. Seven young men, all of them from Aldenvlllo, are at work, and they are such a good-natured bunch of fellows that when the time comes for them to remove to tho new shop at Promp ton tho people of Hawley will sadly miss tholr smiling faces. Hero are the names of the Aldenvilleltes: John Case, Leon Case, Paul Deltrlck, Ewald Deltrlck, Harry Goodrich, Harry Thomas and Mr. Lozier. Work to Commence on Tho Now County Bridge A consignment of Iron has arrived for tho new County bridge that Is to take the placo of the Iron structure that now has become Inade quate for tho demands mado upon it, The new bridge will bo a cement af fair, and will bo a credit to tho town. On the aides of tho driveway will be broad walks for pedestrians. There will bo little confusion incident to the new bridge's construction, as one side will be laid at a time, thus al lowing tramo to hold its regular course with the exception of a very' short timo when tho bridge will necessarily bo closed- The contract for tho construction of the bridge Is' in the hands of Elmer Chapman, of Lake- Ariel, who has an extensive I cement plant at the Gravel Brtinch, between Ariel and Maplewood. Hawley Silk Mills Feel Effect of Paterson Strike. Considerable complaint is heard regarding tho local condition of' tho silk industry In Hawley that Is di rectly affected by tho unfortunate strike now in progress in the city of Paterson, N. J. Tho materials that aro used In the Hawley mill come from Paterson, where certain preliminary work is done. Tho strike shuts off the sourco of supply of the Hawley mills, and thus is seen how'a strike In a city one hundred and flfty miles away can seriously affect the inter ests of the peoplo right hero In "dear Old Wayno." These Men Are All Waiting For Next Tuesday. Have you noticed it? We mean that far-a-way, dreamy look that may be seen in the eyes of so many of the residents of Hawley? If you haven't, why just watch out for It. It means that April 15th will bo around next Tuesday, and that means that a whole lot of Hawley men, like William Schardt, William Watts, Peter Unger, Charles Rose, James D. Ames, Wm. V. Hull, Thos. F. Mangan, George Teeter, Charles Schardt, William Nell and Peter Nell are overhauling their stock of Ashing tackle and Ashing yarns. Hawley has a lot of trout Ashermen, and every last one of them this year intends to catch the largest speckled beauty that was ever landed In these parts. We are awaiting the results of next Tuesday with much anxiety. In fact, we are almost holding our breath so great Is that anxiety. Another Little Bunch of Big Ifnwloy Personals.

After Sinclair Pleaded Guilty to As sault He Was Taken to Prison Fa ther of Girl Thinks' He Was Let Off Easy Also Fined $300. Allentown, Pa., April 10. Samuel Sinclair was sentenced to six months In the county prison (and Aned $300 and costs here for his part In tho at tempted "kidnaping" of Miss Anne E. Steckel on .Tnn. 11. R. Walter Starr, Ir., his companion, wns Aned $25 and costs, Sinclair plcnded guilty to aggravated assault and battery. He was taken to prison at once to begin his sentence. Starr pleaded to assault and battery, ne paid his flne and, returned to his home in Philadelphia shortly after. Sinclair received his sentence without exhibiting any emotion and surren dered hmself to the court officers with out a tremor. Reuben P. Steckel, the father of the girl, whose fortune Is estimated at nearly $1,000,000, said after the sen tence thnt he thought the young men had been lot off easy, but that ho was satlsAed with the penalty pronouuee'd by the court. "I thought Sinclair should have had a longer term," said Mr. Steckel, "but must be satisfied with tho court's ruling. Starr was with him and to a certain extent also responsible." Miss Steckel was here, but refused to be seen. Mr. Steckel said she was out when the announcement of the sen tence was brought to him. 4 Sinclair and Starr arrived here and went Immediately to the court,, where Judge Ileydt of Carbon county sat'to near their pleas.- Judge Trexlcr, who usually presides, did not wish to hear the proceedings, as ho is. a near neigh bor and friend of the Steckcls and as such felt that lie had too special an in terest in the case. It is said that Miss Steckel on several occasions went to the Trexlcr home to escape tho atten tions of Sinclair. Sinclair nnd Starr, who Immediately after the "kidnaping" had waived a bearing and furnished $3,000 bail each tor appearance nt court, were escorted Into the courtroom by their nttorney, former District Attorney Fred B. Ger nerd. Thoy were accompanied by their fnthers. Samuel Sinclair and Dr. Walter Starr, Sr., a professor In the department of chemistry at the Medlco Chlrurslcal college, Philadelphia, where young Starr Is a senior. On behalf of Sinclair, Mr. Gernerd assured the court thnt tho reason of Sinclair's actions was purely and sim ply affection for tho young woman. This affection, he declared, was of the most honorable character. That a mis take had been mndo ho admitted, nnd tor Sinclair he entered a plea of aggra vated assault and battery and for Starr of simple assault and battery. Mr. Gernerd said that the young lady was entirely Innocent In the affair. He lonfessed for Sinclair that Miss Steck el was not In league with tho attempt ed "kidnaping," nor could Sinclair :Iuim that she had in any way encour aged his attentions or led him to be- liove that she cared for hiin. Speaking ror Sinclair, Mr. Gernerd ndded that Miss Steckel was wholly nnd entirely Innocent SILK MILL 0WNEES SEE TENEE Have Conference on Labor Bills Before the Legislature, nnrrisburg, Pa., April 10.
