IlONESDALE.

A horse owned by Fletcher Bunnell
ran down Union hill Tuesday night
and, breaking loose from the sleigh
dashed up the railroad track of the
highworks. Directly back of Menncr
& Co.'S store repairs are being made to
the high works. the horse fell through
here and disappeared from sight. This
led to the first report that the horse
had gone under the ice in the canal.
After much difficulty and hard work
the horse was taken out, slightly
bruised, but not much the worse for his
mad escape.

People from out of town should not
think from this that Honesdale people
are in the habit of going to the theater
in undress. The prices for this enter
tainment win be 80 cents, 70 cents and

but there will be the same small stage

Highest Of all in Leavening Powt
AN ELECTRIC ROAD.

Board of Trade will Entertain Propo-
sition from Hon. G. II. Macomber.
Hon. George H. Macomber, of Augusta,
has, through George II. Grant, of this
| city, made proposition to aid in the
building of an electric road between Els
worth and Ellsworth Falls. The PROPOSE
tion will be submitted to the board for
consideration.
When the bottom fell out of the Stover
electric road scheme, some months ago,
Mr.. Macomber was approached to see if
he would take the matter up, provided
the people of Ellsworth who had sub
scribed toward the road, would renew
their pledges if he took up the work. At
that time he declined to do so.
Now Mr.. Macomber believes there is
need of an electric road here, and is will
ing to back it, providing the people Of
this city pledge themselves to do their
share.
Such a road would be the beginning of a
a line which would extend III one direction
to the bay, giving Ellsworth year-round
water communications, and in the other
direction would reach into the up-river
region, with its wealth of hardwood and
rich farming land, solving at once the
question of transportation ei hardwood,
and bringing to Ellsworth ,he trade that
rightfully belongs to her, but much of
which now goes to Bangor.
In taking up this matter the people will
move cautiously. They nave been griev-
ously disappointed once, and naturally
hesitate when other Schemes ate pro-
posed. But in this case, though the
proposition has not yet been formally
made, it is safe to assert that If it can be
obtained from Mr.. Macomber, he is a
man who will fulfill to the letter the
terms of the agreement.
Mr.. Macomber is president of the Rock
land x Camden road, Vas the chief pro-
moter of the Bangor & Odtown road, and
is largely Interested in several other sue
cessful electric roads in this and other
states. \ proposition from such a man
is worthy of immediate and serious con-
siderat ion.
The attitude of those who show an in
clination to discourage outside capital
from coming into the city, is ill-advised,
sufficient capital here in Ellsworth to
build such a road, it must also be admit
ted that without outside aid it will be
many long day before such a road is
| built
