A New Literary
Departure.

fSA tSsA
The results of new literary
departures on the part of famous
popular authors are always in
terestlng. In some cases they
are also satisfying. H.
The Booming OF Acre Hill
Mr.. John Kendrick Bangs has
written fifteen tales which not
only represent him in a novel
vein, but are considered by some
critics to be the best work he
has produced.
The suburban experiences so
cleverly described one suspects
to be the outcome of Mr. Bangs's
own adventures, and his original
observations bear the nall mark
of real life, In Mrs. Upton's
Device Mr.. Bangs has written a
charming ~Iove-Story. Every
body will love Mrs. Upton and
think her a dear old thing" as
Molly, the pretty heroine, did.
molly is a Gibson girl" since
c. Dana Gibson has done the
pictures for the book In Jar
ley'S Experiment. the ever-en-
tertalning small boy appears,
much to the readers dedication.
In short, Mr.. Bangs's numerous
admirers will like this book he
has given them.
In a tale Of different charac-
ter, by a different author,
"A Cumberland Vendetta"
new edition on deckel-edge
paper, Mr.. John Fox, Jr., re-
lates a thrilling story of the
Cumberland hill country. These
men and women, with primi-
tive emotions and great facility
in the handling of guns, lend
themselves easily to dramatic
situations, and no one depicts
them better than Mr.. Fox.
That we should feel a new
interest in our Hawaiian terri
tory is the inevitable result of
the sense of possession. In

Hawaii"
by Mr.. Edmund P. Dole, wehave
a novel and welcome romance.

story is well told.
Why do we continue to

Smythe in his
1.-THE Conquest of Arid
America"
sets forth the wonders and only
half-appreCiated beauties of our
great West, and the astounding
miracles wrought by modern u
rigati0n, of which our general
public is 50 strangely ignorant.
The book includes a fine por-
trayal of the progress and char
acter OF the American settlement
in the broad regions acquired
from Napoleon and from Mexico.
1t is as interesting as a romance.

This and That.

LaCkawanna conductors who fail to
make report on cars set out of fast
or manifest freight will be subject to
discipline.
A new coal washery is being erected
at the Briggs colliery and large force
of carpenters are now at work on the
superStructure.
Nearly all of the fifty engines or
dered by the Central Railroad of New
Jersey from the Brooks Locomotive
works at Dunkirk, N. Y, have been
delivered and are now in use along the
line.
Engineers who permit engines to
blow off steam, and the application of
the blower, in the vicinity of the Lack
awanna depot. have been notified that
the practice interferes with the work
in the general offices, and in conse-
quenCe the practice has been stopped.
George NJ. Wallace, one of the best
known conductors on the Lackawanna
railroad, and a prominent member of
the brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen,
has been dismissed from the service
under the rule recently adopted by the
company concerning the payment of
debts. Wallace is chairman of the gen.
erhood.
Work will be resumed at the Arch
bald mine next Monday, after several
months idleness. The breaker has re-
ceived a thorough over-hauling, a new
engine house has been erected and the
second motion engines which have
been in use at the colliery have been
replaced by first motion engine.
About six hundred hands are employed
at the colliery.
The next quarterly inspection of
watches belonging to Lackawanna en-
ployes will take place from July l "a
July Is. The men must get watch GER
tificates and present them to the watch
inspector before the latter date. Con-
ductors, yardmasters and drillmasters

intepdent Salisbury's Office, Scranton
and from yardmasters at Kingston
Stroudsburg and Hallstead. Engine
men will obtain them from the super
intendent of motive power and ma

Doan's Kidney Pills. They cure the
lame and aching back, the sufferer
from kidney disorders and the troubles
of those whose urinary organism is
wrong in its action. That they do this
is so easy to prove that not a vestige
OF doubt remains. Public endorse
ment of local citizens Is easily proven.

MANAGERS OF THE HOME.
Entertained by Mr.. and Mrs. w. j
Brown, at Dalton.

The officers and managers of the
Home for the Friendless yesterday
spent a delightful day at at the beau
tiful country place of Mr.. and Mrs.
w. j. Brown at Dalton. This outing
has been an annual treat as Mrs. w.
II. Perkins and Mrs. Brown have en-
tertained the board for several years.
Heretofore, however, the autumn has
been selected. Yesterday was ideal in
the country and it was worth the jour-
ney to see Mr.. Browns wonderful col
lection of roses, in which he takes
much pride. They bloomed in every
room in lavish luXuriance and vet left
no perceptible vacancy in the rose
garden.
The feature of this outing is the
luncheon, which on this occasion was
even more elaborate than usual. The
guests returned at $50, after a restful
and charming day. Among those pres
ent were: Mrs. B. NJ Winton, Mrs. j.
Benjamin Dimmick, Mrs. c. p. Mat
thews, Mrs. A. E. Hunt. Mrs. f. S.
Moffat, Mrs. James p. Dickson, Mrs.

as all had hoped to greet her after her
long absence abroad.

Enginemen Must Report.

General Superintendent Russell, of
the Lackawanna railroad, in a recent
order, says there appears to be a hesi-
fancy on the part of enginemen to re-
port to the superintendent difficulties
that they encounter with their engines
or their inability to do the work they
are asked to perform.
There is also n hesitancy in answer
ing kilograms of the trainmaster and
superintendents on this subject and
other subjects. Enginemen must un-
derstand that the moment they come
over the turn-table they and their en-
gines are entirely subject to the SUPER
intendent and any failure on their part
to the superintendent what is wrong
or failure to answer any communica-
tions of the trainmaster or superin-
tendents will be considered neglect OF
duty.

RECENT INCIDENTS.
In the course of his conversation
the chief mentioned two recent in
stances where permanent men had
been guilty of dereliction of uuty. One
of these was at the Crystal hose house,
he said. One of the permanent men
had been assigned to do a certain
class of outside work by the chief
and was absent from the house for
twenty four hours. Part of his duty
had been to feed and water the horses.
He had some kind of a tiff with the
other man in the house and during
his absence the latter refused to either
water or feed the animals, leaving this
to be done until the first man came
back. He was disciplined and COM
PEELED to do the work when the other
man went out again.
The other incident related by the
chief is perhaps more along the line of
reckless carelessness than of anything
else. 1t appears that when the alarm
for n recent central city fire was
sounded. the driver of the Hook and
Ladder truck was at supper. The
standing order has been that the Sec
ond man shall always be capable of
driving in the absence of the regular
driver.
1t seems that no one but the regular
driver was able to drive, however, for
one of the other two men took the
reins in hand, with the consequence
that during the eight blocks over
which the three new horses were
driven, one of them stumbled no less
than six times, and is at present being
treated in a central city horse hospital
at the expense of the city. The third
permanent man in that house Is now
being taught to drive.
During the course of the interview
Chief Walker voluntarily admitted
that on two particular occasions he
had himself seen two different perma-
nent men, one a member of the Nay
Augs and one from a North End COM
pany, in a beastly state of intoxication.
He stated that both men had been sus-
pended without pay for lengthy periods
to discipline them.
WHAT THE RULES SAY.
Section 1 Of Article Of the ordi-
nance providing rules and regulations
for the fire department reads as fol-
lows: "No intoxicating liquors will be
| permitted upon the premises of any
engine, hose or truck house. If a
charge of intoXication be preferred and
| proven against any permanent mem
Der of the fire department, he shall be
| discharged"
Mr.. Chittenden and Mr.. oliver are
| both determined that better discipline
must prevail in the department, and
whichever ordinance is adopted it is
| safe to assume that better conditions
| will ensue after it's passage. 1t is also
| safe to predict that a number of these
| charges of INSTRUMENTATION will be
| aired in councils, as aired they should
| be. The one deserving of first con-
| sideration is that wherein a permanent
man made threats against the chief.
| The chief, out of charity, seeks to keep
the mans name a secret, but councils
have a right to know it and will no
! doubt insist on their right.

Kings Palace Openfng.

The fall opening of Kings Palace depart
ment stores, at SIP and S14 7th street, is
taking place today. The opening is at
tracing the great amount Of attention al
ways consequent upon an announcement of
the kind from Kings, and there are hun
dreds of busy folks in the stores each min
ute. The proprietors and their employees
have worked nobly to make the present
display a notable one, and, judging from
the expressions of approval and admira-
tion heard on all sides, they have succeed
ed. With the help of florists the always
handsome stores have been enhanced by
the addition of many palms and flowers
of various description.
The Kings stores have proven their re-
liability and worth by many years of fair
dealing and have been rewarded with
merited patronage of a high and extensive
character. They have just acquired the
building adjoining their establishment to
the south, $40 7th street, and as soon as
alterations and improvements can be made
it will be merged into the present COM
modious quarters.
