Grand Bali Given by Mr. and Mrs.
Isenberg at Kekaha.

Grand Bali Given by Mr.. and Mrs.
Isenberg at Kekaha.
For the celebration of the we'd
ding of their Oldest daughter. d.
Miss Anna Isenberg, with Dr.Jur.
Theo. Wiehen in das crosse Vat
erlaud, that all Germans come
from, Mr.. and Mrs. Isenberg gave
a grand ball at their residence at
Kekaha, Kauai, last Saturday.
The house was beautifully illumi-
mated within and without. The
district was invited, came, amused
themselves, ate more than was
good for them, and went home
sorefooted, tired and having the
opinion, that Mrs. Isenberg had
beaten the record, set by herself
years ago.
Everything was done fright up
to the handle" by Mr.. and Mrs.
Isenberg, and nothing was left to
wish, but not 80 with the guests.
For example, it is not nice for
fellow boarding in a plantation
clearinghouse or living on mo-
derate means to starve himself
from the time he gets the invita-
ton, three, four days in before
hand, and then come to the party
as q fenoe-rail and after refresh
ments look like a barrel, particu-
larly as many of the guests did
did not deserve it.
Refreshments were not served
out according to merit, the fellows
holding down the verandah-rail
and occupying the choice seats on
the verandah, attacking sugar
cane, were as we'll treated as the
hardworking class-the dancers.
"a man who does not work for a
living should not have one," says
Herr Most, but Mrs. Isenberg is
not socialisticslly inclined, and
that is my reason for complaint,
but I will forgive them all, as they
do not get entertained that way
any other place.
The writer wishes Mr.. and Mrs.
Isenberg much JOY in their new
role as parents in law, and wishes
that they had daughter getting
married every six months; he has
now the remembrance, dyspepsia,
and one of those beautiful hand
painted dance cards to mark the
event. A WoRKINaMAN.

A Genuine Airship.

Nashville, Tenn, May 6,-To.
day at the Tennessee Centennial
Exhibition grounds, Prof. Arthur
Barnard, physical instructor of
the Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation of Nashville, began a jour
ney in an airship constructed by
himself. The officials of the ex-
position and the people attending
the exposition witnessed the as
cent Of the aerial voyager. The
ship moved off in perfect order
and passed out of sight in few
mir utes. Prof. Barnard promis-
ed to sail against the wind, rising
into the air, and he did go. The
airshio will be continued in use
at the exposition. Prof. Barnard
said he would land at the starting
point tonight. The airship is As
feet long and 20 feet in diameter.

Uncertainties and n Certainty.


The attention of the public is
now fully occupied and diverted
in the consideration and discus
sion of several important current
and prospective happenings. An
nexation, as yet insecure, Re
ciprocity threatened; the coming
of the Naniwa, and her mission
after arrival; the outcome of the
war between Greece and Turkey
and, whether or no, all Europe
will eventually become involved;
the settlement of the quarantine
squabble-are all themes of much
conjecture and uncertainty, and
while opinions are freely offered,
none can accurately foretell the
outcome of any of these matters.
Nevertheless, it is becoming more
apparent, as each day passes, that
Buffalo and Hoffbrau are the
favorite brews, and it is crafty
ing that assurance is given that
regular shipments of these whole
some and strengthening bever.
ages can be depended upon, and
that they will, as heretofore, be
dispensed at the Royal, Pacific
and Cosmopolitan Saloons, and
that the interchangeable check
system is an established fact.

FAULTY BUILDING PERMITS.
One Causes n Clash Between n Con-
tractor and street Commissioncr.

Another evidence of the indefinite
ness and crudcness of the present form
OF building permit issuad from the
street commissioners department APP
pcared Saturday in a clash between
Street Commissioner Dunning and Con-
rad Schroeder who Is building the new
Jonas Long store at the corner of
Lackawanna and Wyoming avenues.
The permits issued by the street COM
missioner are distinct from those Of
the building inspectors department
The former are vague and have not
obliged builders and contractors to
wholly refrain from blocking the
streets.
Mr.. Schroeder has probably erected
more large buildings than any other
contractor in the city and has always
kept the streets reasonably clear Of
material. In the present case, the
building Is on a corner and has no al
ley approach, excepting a small space
at rear corner. Merchants complain
ed of obstruction to pedestrian traffic
and during Saturday MrSchroed2r was
Obliged to begin laying a sidewalk.
The fault is in the form of permit
and does not rest with the contractor.
Street Commissioner Dunning realizes
this and is now investigating the form
of permits of large cities with a view
OF revising the Scranton permit and
making it a binding contract not to
obstruct traffic.

TOOK PASTEUR'S TREATMENT.
West Side Man Is Fortified Against
IIvdrOphobia.

John +. Jordan, of 6l2 West Lacka-
wanna avenue, returned on Saturday
from the Pasteur Institute, New York
city, where he underwent treatment to
prevent a possible attack Of hydro
phobia. The source of danger existed
in a slight scratch inflicted in an acci-
dental manner on his right forearm by
his dying son, who was suffering from
hydrOphobia.
Jordan was sent to New York by
some of his friends about three weeks
ago and his treatment lasted fifteen
days. lie was interviewed yesterday
by Tribune reporter and stated that
he felt perfectly well. His surround
ings while at the institute had been
very pleasant and the method of treat
ment had not inconvenience him. The
interesting feature to him was the
large number of other patients. He is
glad to be home and with a little care
until the effects of the treatment pass
off he will be free from any danger
from the scratch on his arm.

STAGE EFFECTS IN LIMBO.
kennedy Players Left Town, but
Their Goods Remain.

In the station yard of the DelaW are
and Hudson company in this city there
stands one particular car which has q
sad story and q creditors writ attach
cd to it. 1t is a common ordinary car
on the outside but inside there is
tragedy, ard indeed the whole gamun
Of dramatic effects.
The contents were once owned by the
Kennedy Players who for a week past
have dazzled local groundlings with
the lustrous dyes. The heavy villains
mustache and stage laugh are packed
away in the Il. G. To the l.. are
bales of show notices; far away in a
cornice is the soubrettes' wardrobe and
at G.. f., a big bunch of stage thun-
der stands on guard-all constituting
q cold, yea marble-hearted monument
to Arthur FrOthingham's habit of col
lecting things due him.
The goods were attached at q late
hour Saturday night on Il warrant is
sued from Alderman Millar's office. Mr.
Frothirgham alleges that Mr.. Kennedy
after whom the Players are christened,
owes him q certain sum of money on q
business deal when the Vitascope was
first exhibited here. j. Brooks Hooper,
who from his name may be adjudged q
Thespian of the higher order, claims
that the goods in the car are his'n and
defes Mr. rockingham. He defies so
defyingly that Attorney NJ. j. Walsh
was brought to Hooper's support and
together they defled and made dire
threats.
If the car is not released before the
sun gets up very far this morning
they will begin n by-play against Mr..
rockingham. Meanwhile the Kennedy
Players are at Towanda, where the ma
tives have been taught to save their
money for this weeks performance,
No one can conjecture what the future
will bring forth.

SOME LABOR PROBLEMS.
Workers. Educational Association
Begins to Solve Them.

The Workers Progressive Education
al Association conducted a public
meeting last evening in Worllmcn's
hall on Alder street rs Machinery
a Benefit to Wageworkers? was a
question discussed and which led to
remarks on other topics.
A. Langerfield said in substance that
the methods of working today, by the
aid Of machinery are entirely different
to those OF fifty years ago, out that The
laws are inadequate as they do not
keep up with the progress of maChi,
merry. Automatic machinery now
tutns out many times as mucn as
formerly if men work the same hour s,
thereby causing many of tnam 10 lie
idle. d. w. Williams, of Dinmore III
answer 70 Mr.. Langerfield'5 ad6Cess
said that machinery was not the roo.
Of the trouble: it was only one Of toe
many preteXts which are called up to
hide the real cause-intertst on money,
usury, and the concentration of the
currency by the few. He lkened
political agitation Of today to a harp
of thousand strings all of which
except the right one We're played upon.
]. Gray claimed that the machinery as
it is now operated was largely The
cause of the present trouble, but that
this might be remedied by the COVER a.
ment running all industrial mills
mines, etc.
Henry George made a stirring speecr
not on the single tax which this
George does not favor-but the allega-
tior that working people DO not act in
harmony
Next Sunday evening the same SUBJ
ject will be discussed. The audience

BUNCoERs ABROAD: BEWARE !

1t is the trick of the Organized De-

charges against Republican methods,
raise big dust, hire Republican mall
contents to organize Republican bolts
and then coax individual Republicans

tatlon that party ties needn't count

trick, if It shall work, the Bryanites

BURNS FATAL FALL.
Tragic Death of a South Side Man
While Visiting,

while visiting.
Martin Burns of Elm street, South
Side, was taken to the Moses Taylor
hospital at II o'clock last night suffer-
ing from injuries which he received by
falling down a flight Of steps in
Minooka. He was made unconscious
from a blow on the back part of his
head, where he struck the stone floor
of cellar. His skull is probably frac-
tured.
Burns is a young married man. Yes
terday he paid visit to a friend in
Minooka and while there the accident
befell him. At 10 O'Clock last night he
was passing from one room to another
in the house and owing to his unfamil-
iarity with the place he mistook a door
and opening 1t he plunged headfOre-
most down ten steps into the cellar.
Those who heard the noise rushed to
Burns assistance. They found him
laying insensible, with blood flowing
from a cash in his head. He was car
rled upstairs and a physician sum-
moned. Afterward he was brought to
the hospital in q buggy.
Burns died at 2 o'clock this morn
ing. His skull was found to be fract-
ured
