CRYSTAL LAKE BREEZEs.
Echoes from Carbondale Campers
Over the Hills.

Last week at "Idle Hour Glen
seemed more lively than the preceding
one; at all events, the boarders at
Crystal Inn thought so, for no less
than six left, complaining that the
"bugler" made too much noise.
The light members of the "Glen" are
certainly increasing in weight. At least
it seemed SO last week, when one of
the "featherweights' broke a guaran-
teed hammock near Dew Drop 1nn."
You needn't look wise. Gloriander, for
it's "up to you' to settle.
Did you notice that Gloriander looked
all "unstrung" that evening when he
returned to camp?
Jim, the genial hostler at Crystal Inn,
received the degree of NJ. D. last week
from the boys. He certainly deserved
it, for the manner in which he nursed
"Glory's" toe. although Steve placed
his objection before the board. Axle
grease isn't bad, after all.
Chest holds the record as sleeper.
The day before he left for home he
held down the springs just twenty
three hours, in order to have enough
sleep to catch the first carriage for
Carbondale. Wake UP, Chest!
The boys thought they would have
another "early spring" this year, when
they saw Dutch and Chest Jump out Of
bed at s o'clock Saturday morning.
What is the difference between the
"Glen' and the dairy? About one mile
Steve: at least by the manner in which
the cobbler worked at your shoes.
1t did the boys good to see Steve get
up so early (?) in the morning to go
after the milk He evidently likes
walking. Is that the reason. Stout?
Jimmie still insists on catching mil
lers. although the butler was ring
leader.
Why is Jimmie like a fish story?
Catch on? Good!
Prof. Leo Dunlavey's celebrated Ma
rine band arrived at the "Glen" about
midnight last Friday, returning from
an extended concert tour at the differ
ent summer resorts. The boys joined
in and proceeded to Mullaney's, where
the band rendered several difficult
pieces, Prof. Dunlavey taking the solo
part in each. and although his lips were
sore from continuous playing, he rem
dered his part so well that he could
have easily taken the laurels from
Sousa's famous bass drum artist.
Dutch, Chest and Stout shone as
torch bearers. They were the three
bright lights of the evenings enter
tainment. "Seven," although shoeless.
also covered his ground in excellent
manner. Gloriander. as a drum major.
has no equal. The guests at Fern hall
seemed surprised at his skill with the
billy" Too much praise cannot be
given to Jimmie for the manner in
which he handled the music.
AS the boys intend to break camp,
they extend a general invitation to the
public to come and secure souvenirs.
Take everything but the cottage.
Thanking all visitors for their kind
ness, also for their sympathy, l shall
allow my name to terminate the camp
notes for 1902.

Fought Mad Dog,

Charles Vogle, of upper Canaan
street, who is employed by Contractor
Hansen on the new brewery, was at
tackled by mad dog Saturday after
noon, while returning from his work.
He was taking a shortcut across the
hill to his home, when the animal,
which was of the st. Bernard breed,
jumped and caught hold of pet dog
which was accompanying him. He at
once went to its rescue, but the mad
dened animal was too much for him,
and after it had finished his dog it
turned upon him. After hard fight
he succeeded in knocking 1t out. John
McCabe arrived on the scene in time
to finish the brute with load of buck
shot.
The ground for a radius of forty feet
showed signs of the encounter which
took place, and Mr.. Vogles escape was
considered remarkable.

LABOR UNIONS PROTEST
Federal Union and Central Labor
Union Present Resolutions to
School Board, Condemning Con-
tract Given to II. Frank & Son.

A public protest against the award
ing of the contract for painting about
the High school to Fl. Frank & Son,
non-union painters, was made at last
nights meeting of the school board in
resolutions passed by Federal Labor
union No. 1904. and endorsed by the
Central Labor union
The resolutions, condemning the ac-
ton of Directors Evans and Eanaan,
OF the building committee, were handed
in by James Gordon, of the Federal
union, when the board was about to
adjourn. They read as follows:
Whereas. a majority of the members of
the building committee of the Carbondale
school board has seen fit to award the
contract for the painting and decorating
the high school building to notorously
unfair firm. notwithstanding the fact
that the said members, Nannan and Ev-
ans. were fully aware that this action
was direct challenge to organized labor
in the cit".
Now, therefore, the large majority of
union men of Carbondac hereby enter IL
vigorous protest against the act of the
said members of the building committee
of the Carbondale school board.
And further that subsequent action be
taken against the said members as is
fense.
James Gordon. Jonas Williams, S. Il.
Spangenherg, Robert Alexander, commit
tee Federal Union No. 72Oi.
Endorsed by the Carbondale Central
Labor union at a regular meeting Au-
gust 3, 1902.
Mr.. Vanaan objected to the reading
of the communication, if it related to
the awarding of the contract. This, he
said, was Il matter that belonged to
the committee, and to the committee
alone. and that parliamentary usages
sanctioned the referring Of any commu-
ncations touching on committee work
to that particular committee.
Chairman kerwin acknowledged that
the point was we'll taken, though Sec
retary Gallagher was in favor of read
ing the resolutions which he held in
his hand. Finally Mr. Hughes moved
that the communication be referred to
the COMMITTEES. 1t was then given to
Mr.. Nanaan, without the contents be-
ing made known.
After the meeting a committee from
the Federal union handed d copy of the
resolutions to The Tribune.
Earlier in the school board meeting,
Mr.. Hughes, a member of the commit
tee, sought an explanation of the
awarding of the contract by the COM
mittee, of which he was member.
Mr.. Vannan raised the point of order
that no explanation was called for. Mr..
Hughes, however, did explain. saying
that the action of the committee had
been practically agreed upon, but that
he didn't suppose the contract would
be awarded to Frank & Son. In the
face OF the unpopular sentiment he
would never vote to award the contract
as the committee had given it out.

The New York, Ontario and Western
Railway company will run an eXcur-
sion to Hancock, N. Y, on Sunday,

towering peaks of the Catsllills and
other ranges of mountains, presents to
the eXcursionist view well worth see
ing. There are number of summer
hotels and boarding houses at Hancock,
with ample accommodations, and livery
facilities to afford a drive through the
country for eXcursionists.
Train will leave Scranton at $40 a.

FARMERS HEAVY LOSSES.
Echoes of the Disastrous Storm at
Waymart.

The owners of farms and gardens in
and about the village of Waymart are
counting up heavy losses after the dis
astrous storm of Sunday evening, the
worst, by far, that any inhabitant of
the place can recall.
Early yesterday the residents went
out on their lands and were depressed
with the evidences of the storms wrath
on every side of them. Corn fields
looked as If herd of elephants did a
cakewalk on them, andh tomato plants
were cut down. as il one of George
Cuffs two-base liners had scissored its
way through the patches. Perhaps the
fruit trees suffered most. Some of the
orchards had the trees stripped of their
fruit, the ground being covered with
unripe apples. A popularity in connec-
tion with the blowing down of the fruit
was that the apples We're heaped on
top of the leaves, the wind fairly cut
ting the twigs as sharply as with a
knife.
The Patterson farm was visited with
good deal of damage; a half dozen
apple trees were blown down in the
orchard.
The phenomenal force of the wind
and the extraordinary size of the hail
that fell are shown about the barn on
the Perkins farm. Here the soft wood
OF the old structure shows the marks
of the hail dents in the boards. just like
so many stones hurled by active young
sters. Cattle were terror-stricken on
the farms, and beloved a fearful
chorus as they ran wildly about the
fields. Several horses were on the Pat
terson farm and failed to get under
cover during the storm. The incon-
ceivably terrific wind that carried the
storm down off the top of the Moosics
fairly rocked the last car of Conductor
Hubbard's Delaware and Hudson pas
senger train while it was held at the
Waymart station for fourteen minutes,
the duration of the wind, rain and hail.
