The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1895-07-29
PICKED UP AROUND TOWN.

1 nat tue MuHlClpdl park IS uuly dp-
preciated by the people. is seen by the
number of people who frequent it each
evening. There is not prettier or bet
ter kept place in the city. We would
like to call the attention Of the directors
that. although the south side Is
crowded, the north side has few occu-
pants. This is because Of the darkness
which overspreads this part. An elec-
trio light is needed.
Now that the base ball team has re-
turned. the people should turn out and
show their appreciation Of their good
work. Nothing has so much to do with
poor pla ying as small crowd. Carbon
dale is now on top. and We hope 1t will
be there when the season ends. Let
the crowd turn out and cheer the boys
on to victory.
Strangers coming to Carbondale are
struck by the number of fences which
surround the residences. Until recently
this has been needed to keep the wan
dering bovines out, but now cow Is
seldom seen upon the streets. The ap-
pearances of the town and residences
would be improved greatly by the re-
moval Of the unsightly fences.
Work on the reservoir has been COM
pleted and the water has been turned
into the basin. Carbondale can now
stand the severest drouth and not be
afraid Of scarcity of water. The city
is, indeed, fortunate to have such a
guard against fire.
