GOUNGIL TO BEGIN PAVE
SOMETIME THIS YEAR
PLANS AND COST PREPARED BY
STATE HIGHWAY DEPART
MENT DISCUSSED.
Definite Action Will Probably bo
Taken nt Regular Meeting Next
Thursday Evening Sir. Rcigel
Present.
A special meeting of tho borough
council was held in the city hall on
Wednesday evening for the purpose
of considering the advisability of
Immediately paving Main street, the
cost of same and what portion of the.
entire cost would be paid by the
State.
Superintendent Reigel of the State
Highway Department, explained to
the council that in order to obtain
the full benefit of state aid they
must pave Main street its entire
length, that is, from the Gurney
Elevator Plant, south, to the borough
limits, north, and also Park street.
There is the sum of 517,500 now
available from the state but In or
der to get this amount the council
must decide to pave the whole thing.
If Main street is to bo paved only
to the up-town bridge then the
amount available from the State
would be only $9,600.
The members of the council dis
cussed the plans and cost but no
definite action was taken. At the
regular meeting next Thursday even
ing a franchise will be voted upon
calling a special election for the pur
pose of raising the necessary funds
to begin the work.
Mr. Draper, representing the
Wayne County Street Railway com
pany, was present, and told the coun
cil that they expected to begin work
next month. He also informed them
that the railway company would lay
their share of the pave at the
same time the other work was being
done. Mr. Allen, president of the
proposed railway company, and Mr.
Hardenbergh, a director of the com
pany, were present.

FIVE CONSTABLES WI'M
POWERS OF POLICE APPOINTED
Judge Searle approved the ap
pointment of five deputy constables
for Canaan township Tuesday morn
ing. The recommendations were
made by Dr. Fitzsimmons of tho
State Hospital for the Criminal In
sane at Farview. The petition was
signed by twenty-five citizens of Ca
naan township who live in the neigh
borhood of the Institution and who
claim that more protection is neces
sary for the safety of persons and
property in that section.
The men appointed deputy con
stables were: Moses T. Spangenburg,
Michael McDonnell, W. J. Lamb,
Chas. A. May and Frank Romlck. A
certificate was made out immediate
ly by Prothonotary Barnes giving
the five men the power of policemen
in cities for making arrests. Their
duties will lncludo watching over tho
State property at tho Institution.
The recent depridations caused by
persons to the property at the hospi
tal led up to this action by Dr. Fitzsimmons-
and it is thought that this
will also moro properly protect the
property In that locality.

gitty ears Ego
(By Homer Greene)
Written Exclusively for tho Citizen's Memorial Day Number.
IFTY years ago this May tho
high-tide of the Civil War
had been all but reached.
At no time during the con
flict had the hope of the
Confederacy for ultimate victory
been higher. At no' time had the
Union forces had greater cause for
discouragement. Grant had been
baffled again and again in his at
tempt to reach Vicksburg. In De
cember Burnslde had witnessed at
Fredericksburg the fruitless sacrifice
of 12,000 of the flower of the army
of the Potomac.
In tho early days of May, Hooker
at Chancellorsville had been worst
ed in a four days' battle with a loss
of 17,000 men. The outlook for tho
Union armies was most discouraging.
Tho Confederate forces were flushed
with victory. Then Leo determined
to push the war into the enemy's
country, and with a great army he
invaded Pennsylvania. Meade, who
had been given command of the
Army of the Potomac, followed him,
and on the first three days of July,
18C3, came that tremendous battle
at Gettysburg, with Its dramatic cli
max, the charge of Pickett's men and
its tragic ending, and victory resting
finally on the Union banners. Get
tysburg was the beginning of tho
end. From that day the star of the
Confederacy waned to its final ex
tinction at Appomattox.
Fifty years ago the clash of war
between North and South was fierc
est, tho slaughter was greatest, tho
final event was most uncertain. It Is
Impossible for those of the present
generation, living in these days of
peace, in whose lives the brief war
with Spain some fifteen years ago
created a feeling that existed in this
community, as in all other communi
ties, In that spring of '03. Alternate
ly there was hope and despair, and
always the dread of personal or na
tional disaster hanging like a dark
cloud over all the people. There
was no man or woman or child In
this or any community to whom tho
war had not brought Its emotions and
Its tragedies. Every mind was
occupied with Its developments, ev
ery heart was tense with its activi
ties. Wo cannot realize, wo can only
imagine today, to what depths tho
souls of the men and women of '63
wore stirred. And then tho storm
died away. Green grass grow over
the graves of the dead. Time heal
ed the wounds that grief had made.
And today the causes, tho story, the
glory, tho tragedy of the great war
aro all forgotten. Were it not that
after fifty years a few old heroes
who marched and fought and faced
death to uphold the principles so
wisely stated and so vigorously en
forced by Abraham Lincoln, aro mov
ed to come together on a day in May
to commemorate the deeds and virt

BASEBALL MEMORIAL DAY.
German Catholic Club Will Cross
Bats With Olyphnnt on Local
Field Two Games.
Weather permitting, two games of
baseball will be played at Athletic
Park on Memorial Day. Tho German
Catholic Club has made arrange
ments with tho Olyphant, team to
play morning and afternoon at this
place upon that day. The first game
is scheduled at 10:30 a. m., and the
afternoon game will be called at
2115. The batteries for the G. C. C.

Hessling. The team will be strength
ened by several of Honesdale's play
ers, namely, B. Hessling, the little
wonder with an iron arm, W. and J.
Polt, W. Mangan, and J. Schilling.
It is hoped that tho boys will be
liberally supported. They are do
serving of a big crowd in that they
have tho enterprlso to organize a
club for iHonesdale's entertainment
this summer. A largo attendance
will encourage the team and place
them in a position where they will be
able to better represent the Maple
City in base ball circles.
Ben Hessling has been elected
captain, manager and coach, and
Julius Polt assistant manager of the
German Catholic club. Valley teams
desiring games can secure dates and
make arrangements for return
games by addressing Captain Hess

ues of their comrades who have gone
before, we should have little to re
mind us, outside the pages of history,
that fifty years ago today the tide of
the mightiest and bloodiest war ev
er waged was just turning for the
ebb. It is well that the old causes of
war have disappeared, that tho old
enmity between North and South has
been forgotten, that the men of the
blue and the men of the gray can
clasp friendly hands this year on the
field for possession of which they
fought each other with tremendous
bravery and awful sacrifice a half
century ago. But, it is well also
that a day is set apart out of the
busy life of this twentieth century to
honor the memory of those who
fought In that great war and who
have gone on into tho land of ever
lasting peace, and to remember and
restate the principles for which they
fought and which, reestablished by
their blood and bravery, have made
and will keep this nation dominant
and great.

KRANTZ MADE TRUSTEE
OF FOOTWEAR COMPANY
MOTION FOR THE APPOINTMENT
OF A RECEIVER WAIVED BE
FORE JUDGE NEWCOMB.
Many Stockholders of Company
AVhoso Business Was Destroyed by
Firo Present at Hearing Wednes
day. Judge E. C. Newcomb, of Scran
ton, sitting in equity here Wednes
day morning, appointed former
President W. H. Krantz of the
Honesdalo Footwear Company, solo
trustee for the purpose of winding
up tho business of the company and
converting the assets into cash, the
same to bo .distributed among tho
stockholders of tho company. He
was required to furnish a bond in
the sum of $45,000. The suit in
equity brought by Levi Penwarden
et al., through his attorneys, Peter
H. Iloff and C. A. Garratt, for the
appointment of a receiver for the
company, was thus brought to a suc
cessful conclusion with the appoint
ment of a trustee, rather than a re
ceiver as this action will probably
mean a saving of "many dollars to the
stockholders of the company.
Judge Newcomb offered a mode of
settlement in which he suggested
that tho plaintiffs drop their action
for he appointment of a receiver for,
as he said, it was a very expensive
proceeding. He suggested that W.
H. Krantz be made a trustee to wind
up the affairs of the company and
make a settlement to the stockhold
ers. After a brief conference with
their clients Attorneys Iloff and
Garratt agreed to the proposition and
said that the stockholders would be
glad to receive even $36,500 of the
amount due from the insurance.
The motion for a receiver was waiv
ed. The proceedings had attracted con
siderable attention in Honesdale
where most of the stock of the com
pany had been sold, and many of
me stocicuoiaers thronged the court
room during the hearing.
Tho court made the following or
der based upon the agreement of the
parties interested:
Now, to wit, May 28, the motion
for the appointment of a receiver is
waived upon the following conditions
hereby made an order of court, by
the agreement of the parties con
cerned. First That W. H. Krantz ba an-
pointed Trustee to wind up the busi
ness of the defendant coniDanv and
to collect and take into his posses-
sion, ror tne use or the parties en
titled thereto, all and singular the
assets of the said company.
Second That with respect to the
insurance, he shall not compromise
the claims for less than the total
sum of Thirty-Six Thousand, Five
Hundred Dollars ($36,500).
Third That he shall proceed with
all possible dispatch to collect tho
outstanding claims, including tho in
surance, and to convert the other
assets into cash.
Fourth That he shall be entitled
to employ such attorney or attorneys
as may be necessary in and about
the collection of said claims and the
settlement of the company's affairs,
at tho expense to be subject to the
supervision and final order of the
court.
Fifth That upon tho collection
of the assets aforesaid and the re
duction of tho same Into cash, he
shall account in due form of law,
In this court, subject to the right of
exception as in similar cases by any
party at interest, said accounting to
date from tho time of the firo, to
wit, the 21st of February, 1913.
Sixth That tho term "assets" as
herein used refers only to personal
assets and not to real property.
Seventh This order to bo with
out prejudico to the right of the
plaintiff eventually to claim repay
ment, out of tho funds in tho ac
countants hands, for the costs In
curred in this proceeding, including
a reasonable counsel feo to be fixed
by tho court or agreed upon by the
parties.
Eighth This order contemplates
a speedy settlement of the matters In
controversy and prompt accounting
thereafter, and for default In that
respect, upon due cause shown to
