MAsoNs IN HARD LUCK.
start for a Banquet in Binghamton,
and an Engine Breaks Down.

A number of Masons from this city
and surrounding towns went to Bing-
hamton on Wednesday night to en-
Joy n blow and the fine degree
work given by Otseningo lodge, Free
and Accepted Masons. Of that city.
The party split up into two squads.
one. going by way of the Delaware,
Lacl;awanna and Western from
Scranton. and the second section de-
Gliding to go by the Delaware and Hud-
son. With the former crowd this
story has nothing to do.
The Delaware and Hudson journey
ers boarded the train for Nlnevah at
i.3o o'clock and all went we'll until
they reached the railroad yard about
half a mile along. There the engine.
unaccustomed to pulling such party
of solid. well-fed men. baked and
could not be persuaded to act sood and
20 along serenely. So It was unyoked
and an hour and half was spent in
getting another in trim, while the
blue lodge members spent the 1eet-
ing minutes in trying not to get into
a mood to match the trimmings of
their aprons.
After the second engine got started,
1t went along all right, but much
slower than the schedule called for,
and when It wasn't stopping at sta
tions It hesitated considerably all
along the line. Visions of the elabor-
ate spread awaiting them at Bing-
hamton helped to dispel the gloom
for while. until it was discGS-..ed
that II the train wasn't hurried up a
bit they would miss that, too. Then
the gloom settled down as thick as a
fog.
At about half past eleven o'clock, d.
disgusted looking lot of +. MS
craved admission at the Masonic tenn
pie i'm Binghamton. When they had
obtained II, they sought the dining
room The supper was over. blue
clouds of smoke were swirling over
the heads of a crowd of contented-
looking fellows. and to add to their
misery one OF Carbondale's most emf
nert Masons was telling funny story
amid salvos of applause. They We're
escorted to the well-cleaned tables,
however, and a careful search revealed
enough eatables to supply their appe-
tites. But they had entirely missed
the degree work. for which tney nad
travelled all those weary miles.
Those from this city who got TO

monies. by going by the Delaware

OF the disappointed ones.

AS result of the changcable eli
mate, Catarrh has become one of
the most prevalent and universal
diseases known to man. Nearly
one-t third of the people of the
United States are afflicted with ca
tarrh in some of its many phases
and stages. Add to this the fact
that catarrh rapidly tends to be-
come fixed or chronic. also the
further fact that ii is capable of
producing great many other dis
eases, and we begin to realize the
true nature of this dread disease.
SO formidable has catarrh become
that in every city or town of any
size numerous doctors are to be
found who make the treatment of
catarrh a specially. OF course "a
great deal of good Is accomplished
in this way, but as yet Il compare
lively small number of the people
can avail themselves of this treat
ment because of the great expense
necessarily attached to it.
