SITES FOR A NEW HOTEL.
Ned Not Necessarily Bc Located on tho
public Square.


puhlic Square.
The question of greater hotel accom-
modatiOns continues to be discussed
among business men and capitalists, but
there is as yet no organized movement
for carrying out the project. The idea
seems to prevail that the public square
Is the only proper place for a modern
hotel. This is a mistaken notion. There
is no reason whatever why such a struc-
ture should be located on the square.
There are othersites where ground costs
much less and which are just as well
adapted for the purpose. The east side
Of North Franklin street above Market
is for several hundred yards occupied
with cheap little buildings and that
point would be just as desirable for a
hotel as any in the city. South Main
street, anywhere between the square
and South street, offers equally desir-
able sites. Either North or South
Washington street for a square from
East Market would be as eligible as any
locality, as also would be North Main
between the square and Union street.
This city must have greater and bet
ter hotel accommodations than it now
has. One of the wealthy men in this
city who has not yet erected monu-
ment for himself is Lawrence Meyers,
the retired banker He could put $780,
900 or 100000 into a hotel and would
find it a profitable investment. besides
being gratefully remembered by the fu-
ture generations of Wilkes-Barreans for
such an exhibition of public spirit. Mr..
Myers already owns real estate in vari-
Gus sections of the city that would an
swer every purpose for a magnificent
modern hotel. He should take a run to
Scranton and have a talk with John
Jermyn on the hotel question.

FREEDOMS CALL.

| Written for The Tribune.
Freemen, awake arise!
| And spurn the tyrant's chain,
Who threats in naughty power
To bind it on again.
| A century and more
We broke it, link from link,
And drove the mighty tyrant then
In discord from our brink.
| But still he lifts his hydra head,
| Small powers to ever keep in dread
We revolutionized
This western land of ours;
| Led on by Washington
We freed it from the powers T.
| OF this same greedy foe.
His faith with us he broke
| An ever strove to force us back -
Under his CALLING yoke. J..
| For love of gain no honor found,
He strove again to seize our ground.
Again was driven back
This ever grasping lord,
This thieving mistress of the sea,
From taking our reward.
The doctrine of Monroe
They ratified; but when
Comes the least shadow Of a chance
They seek to break again; -
And we must now, at any cost,
Hold them in check or all Is lost.
In Nicaragua now
And Venezuela's land,
He feign in spite of us
Would show his stealthy hand. -,
A firm, bold stand of ours
VIII keep him from his plan; -
So let us bravely onward go
And thwart him while we cam.
To foreign powers this land no more
BY threats or waf will ope' her door.
North, Central South, are one,
This cause Is theirs and ours
All should united stand,
Resisting foreign powers.
To battle then If needs
United let us so,
And soon, ah! soon. from all this land
Drive every grasping foe,
Then rue to times last setting suns -
This land alone by Americans. :
So now awake, arise, -
Your lethargy throw off
And gird for freedoms fight:
Nor heed the jeering scoff .
OF tyrants who oppose,
Who every right we feel
Would strip from us and bind and drag
Behind their chariot wheel.
Now while we've time let's strike the blow
And break for aye this chain Of woe.
John H. Mulkey.
West Pittston, Maya.

England's Valuable Lesson.

From the New York Sun.
England has taught the American people
a lesson, but not the one she imasines she
has taught. They have leaned from this
Nicaraguan affair how great danger to
American doctrines and American institu-
tions may come from the lack OF patriot
ism and common sense in the adTinistra-
tion in power. They have learned that
their ambassador at the court of st.
James's must be a man who runs no risk
of becoming the victim of British hospital
i"y. England may have the credit, IL she
likes. OF teaching the American people
these things, and she will find in due time
that they have bettered the instruction.

POLITICAL POINTERS.

The News Dealer. which is active in
politics every month in the year. wants
an early Democratic county conven-
ton, and calls upon Chairman Smoul-
ter to make a move in that direction.
The News-Dealer seems to think that
a long campaign would be beneficial
to what is left of the Democrats party
of Luzerne." Colonel Sam Boyd has on
occasion shown himself possessed Of
more political sense than those Demo-
cratic leaders who persistenty ignore
him. The Luzerne Democracy Is in a
bad way, and the News-Dealer man
apply his galvanc battery on it.
According to a local paper, Repre-
sentative Griner aspires to congress
slonal honors, and contemplates con-
testing for the nomination with Con-
gresham Leisenring next year. This
is probably a joke.
f. Fl. Chase, who has just been ap-
pointed tax receiver, should be made
the chairman of the county committee
this year If eX-Sheriff Robinson shall
persist in his announced declination to
serve another year. Mr.. Chase is a
splendid organizer and that is the kind
Of chairman the Republican party
needs.
ExDistrict Attorney German, now
the recognized leader Of the Luzerne
Democracy, will undoubtedly be urged
to accept the nomination for congress
next year, but some of his friends say
he will not consent to run. He is young

CHAPTER i.
There is no date in my diary which
tells me exactly when we arrived in
Brittany; but 1 sha'n't be far wrong
II set it down as the month of March,
and. to be particular, rather late thnn
early, in a week when there was spring
in the air, and the smell of the country
was like new wine 10 man. can re-
member we'll that there were many to
chaff us for leaving Paris at such sea-
son, and, so far as that goes. IL was
queer sort OF journey TO make just
when the town was full of life and most
folks were coming in from the prov
inces. But Sir Nicolas was hit again,
and like many one before his day,
and many a one TO come after, time and
season were nothing when laid against
woman's pretty face. He would have
gone to the other end OF the world for
Nine. Pauline--aye, believe he would
90 now IL it were in his power.
/ have seen many a woman in my
time--and mans no worse judge of
q pretty girl because fortune compels
him to look at her through an attic
wirdow-but this / will say, that a
finer creature than the mistress of the
Chateau de rEpee never drew breath.
We had met her first in the Vienna ex-
press on our return from that matter
OF the Mazarin diamond laugh now
when / think of it--and she and Sir
Nicolas struck up n friendship at once.
This was not surprising, for he had the
ways which go down with women TO
n degree I've never seen before or since;
and she, well, she was n woman who
30 to speak. All said and done, il isn't
the schoolgirl with the pink and white
skin and the simper you find in story
books that man of the world cares
twopence about. Youth? Yes, he
won't turn his head away from that;
nor prettiness either, SO far as il goes.
But it's soul and devil, light and shade,
that hold hiDl--and there never was
woman who had them like madame.
/ said, when first saw her, that she
was a stranger to the thirties, and this
was no wonder, for she had the face OF
a child. 1t was not until we had spent
some few days in her company that I
changed my opinion and put her down
rs thirty-one or thirty-two. It's al
ways difficult to read the age of bru.
nette; and her hair was as dark as
night. Not that years made any diff
ference to her; for she was just one of
those rare creatures whose acquain-
tance age seems to shun. There is no
greater compliment 20 a woman than
this,--that men are glad to hear she is
no child. In her case, she was both
child and woman, slight and graceful
as young girl should be, gay in talk
as one who has taken downward rung
on the ladder of life. And never met
q man yet who wasn't her servant ten
minutes after he knew her.
1t is TO be imagined how my master
carried himself in an affair of this sort.
He had seen madame first on the plat
form at Munich; he was raving about
ger before we got to Strasbourg;
Shen at last the train drew up at the
hare de rEst, he spoke to her as though
