Those were the good old days of dreams, When "freemen" swore by bluff "Old Hickory," But things aren't always what they seem, (Your coffee's sometimes made of chicory.) But here's a little glimpse of Wayne Ere steam cars came, when folks used candles, When "mutton hams" were sold for gain. When "hornless cows" still wore their handles.

It was the voice of Mord. Simons, Hawley's well known contractor and builder. He was calling from ex Sheriff Murphy's now building that he is erecting. What he had to show was so full of interest that we must tell Citizen readers all about It. Prom a No. 9 V2 canary envelope he carefully, very carefully withdrew a newspaper, old and yellow from the ravages of time, and yet well pre served. It was a copy of The Wayne County Herald and Bethany Inquirer, Vol. I., No. 40, bearing date of October 2, 1S34. There you have iii 1S34! Why.

Jedalah Irish, John Huston, Jr., and Philip Lynn, of Northampton county, were also running for As sembly on the same ticket. National politics was a white-hot proposition. General Andrew Jack son was President of tho United States, and, judging from the Her ald's attitude, to be loyal to tho fiminrnl wuh tlio printout victim imaginable, and to differ with him was treasonable. The Whig ticket was composed of Alexander E. Brown for Congress, and Philip Lessig, Robert Simonton, Isaac McIIale and Paul S. Preston, 1 of Wayne County, for Assembly. The candidates for county offices were numerous. Seven people' want ed to be Sheriff. They were Cal vely Freeman, Joseph Miller, Elihu C. Keen, Oliver T. Hatch, William Moak, Thomas L.

J Closely. The progress of the great strike that is in progress in Paterson, N. J., is watched with anxious interest by many people In Hawley. At pres ent our silk mills are running on ab breviated time. This condition will prevail until the Paterson difficulty Is terminated. On Tuesday tho pa pers from New York were eagerly sought.

If Dexter, Lambert & Co. would remove their Paterson mills to Wayne county it would be money in the pockets of that concern as well as for our home people, and for years to come Industrial peace could reasonably be counted on. May the day of the coming of the mills be hastened. t t A Former Itmrloy Boy Visits the Old Town. James T. Kearney, who has a drug store on Jackson street, on the West Side of Scranton, was visiting Haw ley relatives and friends this week. Mr. Kearney says he remembers well when the Hawley Times was started in the wee little red building on River street that the late Charles Daniels owned.

While at work on a new barn be ing erected by Mr. Walsh, at Lake vllle, Arthur Ammerman met with an accident that may yet either cost him his life or permanently disable him. Ammerman was working on a scaffold and made a misstep, falling a distance or twelve feet to the ground floor of the barn He was uui .uuuui, was cuosen leacner in tne , nun graue or tne Hawley High school for the ensuing year. Miss Dunn is a very preposessing young woman and of very good family. She has taught school for two years in Pleasant Mount township, and has during tho past year taken a pre paratory course for school teaching, and the board evidently made no mistake in securing her. The teach ing force Is now completed, and the school is prepared to begin work for tho new term. t t Explosion of Oil Store '"'Ss Out tho Firemen. On Friday last there was consid erable excitement about the Snyder & Freathy drug store. Mr. Parker was making some distilled water, employing a two-burner oil stove While his attention was directed to the front store the wicks became ambitious and began to climb the ladder of fame, or flame, rather. The result was that an alarm was sent in and the firemen rushed to the scene; but no stream was turned on, the fire was easily extinguished and the damage was slight. Some of " the boys " smilingly alluded to the incident, saying that it was the dis tilled water that caught Are, it had been so rarefied and purified by Mr. Parker's method of manufacture. t Senator McNicholl and Wife Visit Hawley nnd Vicinity.

ATTENDANT. WHITE MILLS HERE Is a peculiar charm about this little Wayne county village that the writer has not yet been able to trace to 1st source. Many of its homes are hidden away among the forest trees, and so far as the nest and its surroundings are concerned, they are homes indeed, every one of them, or they should be if appearances count for anything; but our great American poet, Long fellow, declares that "appearances are deceitful." The "charm" began Its active work when the 1:30 p. m. train stopped and a lot of nomads alighted and be gan the little hike across the river to the village. One of the hikers was telling his companion of a wonderful sandwich he enjoyed In White Mills once on a time when he struck the town as hungry as a wolf and didn't have time to wait for a regular meal. It was made of "that home bread," you know, with Wayne county but ter, and "a little bit of cold beer' as a filler. There was also men tionlngs murmured about buttermilk, or beer, or something to wash down the sandwich with. Good as it was it was more than he could get around, and then he broke out thusly: "When I asked the lady what she wanted for such a feast FEAST, mind you holy smoke! she said it would be about fifteen cents! I never had anything that tasted so good in all my life, and it was the cheapest meal I ever ato!" The writer hereof thinks he knows a little bit about advertising, but that travelling man could do the trick for any hashery or pork-and-beans establishment in tho coun try, and he had me beat a mile be fore he was fairly started. Wonder who ho was! t t The Jleptasoph Building. Away up tho Honesdale road, past a hotel, beyond the bit of oiled street, still beyond the church, tho opera house and tho little store that clings to old' time methods of carrying a good part of its stock out in tho air as a porch display, out among the sweet odored pines, out beyond the quaint bird house that is substantially perched away up in a big tree, also beyond tho "pretty wayside well" that ls surrounded with trim stone walls and covered over with planks to prevent the sun from gazing too long and burnlngly upon it. There is where the writer found the new building that ls already the pride of the town. In the southwest corner is a marble corner stone, and on its face is the following: T T WHITE MILLS HEPTASOPIIS ASSOCIATION Laid April 5, 1013. -f The building ls a large, two story affair, built of nicely made ce ment blocks.

In architecture it will be severely plain, and its plainness will be its distinguishing mark of beauty. It will be well lighted and ventilated, and when completed would be a credit to towns much larger than White Mills. t t Going Some." The Honesdale road that constitutes the main street of White Mills is tho most extensively traveled road In Wayne county. The residents of the town want It called "The Wayne County Boulevard." Last Sunday a certain personage of tho town kept tab on the automo biles, carriages, motorcycles and bi cycles that passed the main corner near the Union church. He began his vigil at 7 in the morning and closed at 7 in the evening. In that time 480 of these various vehicles had passed him, which makes an av erage of one vehicle every 1 min ute of the 12 hours. This certainly calls for better and wider streets, and it also calls for oiled streets. t t White Mills is Honored. This town was signally honored on lion' day by the visitation of three of Pennsylvania's most prominent men, United States Senator Boies Penrose, Judge 'Rallston and Henry F. Wal ton, chairman of the commissioners who have thq building of the crimi nal Insane hospital in their charge. All of these personages are from Philadelphia, and they came here to call on Charles H. Dorflinger, one of the board of directors of the in stitution recently partially com pleted at Farvlew. After spending some little time with Mr. Dorflinger our distinguish ed guests pursued their homeward way in their large touring ear, via Milford and Port Jervis. t t White Mills Personals. Mrs. C. H.
