HONESOAlE.

The game Of base ball at Lake Ariel
on Tuesday. at the Red Mems picnic.
was characterized principally by the
number of runs made and the amount
Of kicking DONE The game was be-
tween he Antilles Of this place and
the White Mills club. Seeger. Of Phila-
delph'a. and Ham. OF Scra,ntOn. acting
AZ umptres. The score was, Antilles,
%; White Mills, II. The Antilles have
a very strong team. but at Tuesdays
game they seemed to be smewha.t de-
moral!zed. making many errors, and
had the White Mills club been able to
pull themselves, together they could
have easily won. The management at
Lake Ariel should take some means Of
Keeping spectators of the field during
the games. as they interfere very much
with !he players. and, moreover, some
OF them are liable to be injured. Sew
eral people were hit by the ball at
Tuesdays game.

sixty.Three stitches Necessary Knows
Nothiue Of the Accident.
The condition OF Thomas Pengelly. n
Birkett street. who was hurt yester-
day on the Gravity. Is somewhat i'm
proved. The scalp on the unfortunate
mans head was nearly torn off and his
skull badly fractured. Sixty-three
stitches were taken in the scalp.
Mr.. Pengelly regained consciousness
yesterday morning. but could remember
nothing Of the accident. He recognized
his wife and several friends. however.
How the man was thrown from the
cars Is a mystery. Conductor Pierce's
passenger train from Honesdale was
following the excursion train and as
they neared No. 4. the brakeman saw a
mans body lying near the track. He
at once notified Conductor Pierce. and
Frank Farrell and another young man
ran back to the spot. On looking back
they found that the train had gone on.
Farrell hurried back to Farview and
with car came back to the spot, when
Mr.. Pengelly was put on and brought
20 this city. The company ambulance
was waiting at the depot and he was
at once carried to the hospital.

FOREST CITY.

The article which appeared In yester-
days Joe-Scranton-the BOSS
of-LackawannSa-c -cOunty-organ reminds
ore Of the fellow who cried stop thief
in order to divert attention from him
self to some one elese. But we propose
to show to the Republican voters OF
Forest City some Of the inside history
OF the ring who promised Quay -FOUR
delesates from Forest City when he was
In Scranton, and who thought they had
1t all curt ard dried without consulting
the preference OF the voters OF this Dor
ough, and could earn the doodle ser'.
here without an effort. They are mis-
taken, however. The voters or this
borough are determined In common
with hundreds of thousands OF voters
through the state to dethrons the 'Oic-
tator'' who thinks he can with i'm
punity override even the constitution
Of our state. ard TO send the TammanV
hall in miniature In this borough to
keep company with the gang they nave
tried to initiate. You are mistaken,
Fair Play" and 1t is your head that Is
muddled. (by beer, or otherwise.) Our
CORNER article did not state that the
four gentlemen had been selected as
delegates, but that the Republican vot-
ers Of Forest City were to be congratu-
lated on their selection Of Frank Hol-
lenback and Lew Jones for the First
ward, and DR.. w. r. Blakesless and
BENJAMIN Maxey In the Second wardS
for candidates as delegates, and we de-
sire to emphasize what we said. More
honorable men than these could not be
found, representing as they do the pro-
fessional, business and laboMng classes;
they are not all from Main street,
either, but are selected with IA view to
giving the whole town fair represen-
tation.
You ought to drop the name Of Fair
Play" 1t does not suit. Was 1t fair
play that prompted your gang to
treacherously put up Bartender Rich
ards against a representative man like
Dr. Blakeslee; man paying, probably.
more taxes than any other individual
in Forest City, and who Is honored and
respected by all who know him. when
he was running for delegate to the
county convention last February, and
had been promised the support Of those

play to ignore George Esmay, regularly
elected last February in place Of L. p.
We'deman, as county committeeman
and without the semblance of authority
replace him with two Of your present
candidates for delegates? 1t may be
fair play for a justice Of the peace (whO
is one Of your candidate) to promise
before he was elected to establish his
office in the ward for which he was
elected, and after election to select his
office in the First ward, thus leaving
the Second ward without justice Of
the peace, but 1t don't seem so to flir-
minded people in said ward. Shall we
give you a few more samples Of fair
play such as could be got from the
school board and other matters? 1t Is
just exactly fair play we are after, and
you cannot scare the voters OF this bor-
ough by the worn-out abuses of your
"muddled" brain.
We propose to stand by our governor,

and are determined the people shall
have chance TO show their preference.

An interesting experiment of install
ing a telephone by trotting cavalry
was recently successfully undertaken
by some Prussian Uhlans between
Berlin and Potsdam. Two sets of one
officer and two non-commissioned Off
GERS proceeded in the early morning
respectively from Berlin and Pots
dam. Each set was equipped with a
complete telephone apparatus which
one of the men carried In a leather
case on his chest, besides the requis-
tie quantity of thin wire. The II of
the wire was connected with the re-
Spective towns telephone station, and
the wire was, by means of a fork fixed
at the end of the lance, thrown over
the tops of the trees along the road.
AS each kilometer of wire was thus
suspended a halt was made, and it
was ascertained whether there was
connection with the station. A new
kilometer of wire was hen connected
with the former, and on went the men.
The two sets met at TeltOW. The
wires, having been respectively tested
with their respective stations, were
connected, and telephone connection
between Berlin and Potsdam was es-
t%ablished. The distance is about TWEEN
ty miles, and the whole thing was
done in about four hours.-Scientitic

Only four persons saw it. but it was
a sight those four Will not forget while
life lasts. Not more than a fortnight
ago a woman who lives in Georgetown
came over to spend the day with a
friend in an enormously tall house.
She brought her little three-vear-old
son with her. 1t was a not day, and
the two women with the boy went up
TO the roof garden. Something dis
tracted the mothers attention for q
moment, and in that moment the baby
had claml'ered to a chair, thence to a
rustic table, and as the mother turned
was just walking along the parapet's
edge. "A divine providence kept both
women from startling him by a
scream. He ran along the edge of the
sickening height laughing and waving
his hands. Nobody knows bow long
it was. 1t seemed a lifetime. The
mother dared not approach, for at

not be coaXed to come down, but tinal-

THE SONG OF THE GUN.

The furnace was white, with steel
alight,
When my newborn spirit came,
In a motion flood of the war gods
blood,
In a passion of fire and fame.
l looked DER the deep from a lofty
steep
With a strong heart full of pride;
Like a king alone on his stately
throne .
Whose word no man denied.
My thunder spoke from the battle
smoke,
When the waves ran crimson red,
And heroes died by my iron side,
Till the foreign foeman fled.
The sentence of death was in my
breath,
And many a ship went down
Oh, the gun is lord of the feeble
And greater is his
Now the long grass hides my rusty
sides.
And round me the children play;
But / dream by night of a last great
fight,
Ere the trump of the Judgment Day.
For men must fight in the cause of
right,
Till the time when wal shall cease,
And the song of the gun will ne'er be
done
Till the dawn of lasting peace.
