Today at Lodore,

There will be a great exodus to Lake
Lodore today 1t is likely that the
greatest crowd of the season will 60
over the Mooscs. The occasion is the
joint picnic and excursion of the Klot's
SILK mills of Carbondale and Scranton.
An additional attraction, however, is
the game of ball between the Crescents
or this city-our pets-and the South
Scranton team. These teams have met
before; each has won a game, which
makes this the rubber. The South
Scranton lads are the snappest ball
players the Crescents have met this
year, and it will be no small wonder,
II hundreds of enthusiasts so to the
lake today.
kelleher, the mute south-paw will
pitch for the Crescents and Harrison,
the doughty bright-haired pitcher will
be on the other side. Billy Emmett
will be on first base and George Cuff
will go out to center field.

THE WATER SUIT.
Common Council Directs That It Be
Appealed

If select council concur, the decision
in the municipal water suit will be ap-
pealed to the Supreme court.
Common council. at it's meeting
Thursday night, decided on such ac-
tion, though not until the advisability
of such step was we'll ventilated.
Mr.. Thompson advised caution, be-
cause of the expense of the proceeding,
particularly in the face of the citys in
debtedness. which is upwards of $4,000.
He believed it would be we'll to Law it
over for couple of months Chairman
Masters however suggested that the
appeal must be taken before twenty
days.
Mr.. Nealon pointed out the necessity
OF taking the case to the last court,
because the health of the West Side
people, by reason OF the alleged poor
water supply, demanded such step.
representation Of West Side resi-
dents was present at the meeting.
The resolution, which was introduced
by Mr.. Nealon, was finally adopted, all
voting except Mr.. Thompson.

THE GRAND ALMOST
A new PLAY HOUSE

merous other Finished Improve
d. ments--Season Opens Monday.
~ The Grand-just after receiving thu
attentions of decorators--will have
pleasant greeting for Carbondale thea.
rter-goers on Monday night, when the
theatrical season opens with Howard
Kyle in Nathan Hale" piece that
left pleasant memories last year, one
of the triumphs of the season.
The playhouse is practically new
one, interiorly, and will offer many
surprises to the increased number OF
admirers that it will be sure to win
With the exception of the seats, every
thing looks new, everything is practi-
cally new, and it will be safe to hazard
the guess that the unanimous verdict
of the patrons will be what a pretty
place this is now"
A new curtain, fresh from the Lee
Lash studio of New York city, gives
the first idea of newness to the house.
This is the same studio that furnished
the curtain to the Lyceum in Scranton,
and this one Is not a whit behind the
one in the big Scranton playhouse. 1t
is brighter in color and makes a pretty
picture. 1t presents a view Of fine

splendid buildings and other signs of

from the sober and somewhat severe
picture that adorned the old curtain.
The proscenium has been wholly
transformed by the handiwork of de-
corators. The old dull colors have
given way to solid red, or maron, and
a blue, frightened with decorations of
bright gold. Maroon and blue form
the scheme of decoration throughout.
The walls Of the boxes look exceedingly
well in these colors, the effect of the
decorations being enhanced by new red
draperies and upholstering Of red plush.
The front of the boxes are enamelled in
white, with trimmings of gold. This
white and gold decoration extends over
the orchestra box railing and the front
of the balcony. A rich maroon Wilton
covers the boxes and the aisles of the
theaters. The orchestra rail will be
draped with a curtain of red plush,
which, contrasted with the white and
gold of the orchestra box fittings, will
present pretty effect.
A decided change has been made In
the illuminations Of the house. Here
tofore the auditorium or dome light
had only half dozen large incandes-
cent lamps to shed their rays; now it
can boast of circle of forty lamps,
whose incandescent glow will be flood
of light to brighten the picture of color
that the beautiful playhouse will pre-
sent.
The dressing rooms of the house have
been renovated and are all completed in
rich green.
Numerous other details have been at
tended to, which will effect the pleas
ant surprise that the Grand's patrons
will surely receive Monday night.
Manager Byrne's efforts to provide a
cosy place and surroundings that will
place it in the front rank, call for more
than passing notice; and it is safe to
say that appreciation will be mani
Tested in an awakened response among
Carbondale's theater-goers.

Labor Day at Lake Lodore.

Well, we suppose every one has
heard of the great ball game that is to
take place at Lake Lodore on Labor
Day, between the "blowers"- of Wayne
and Lackawanna counties-two of the
greatest clubs in the state, at least in
the minds of their respective suppor-
ters. There will no doubt be great
many over to witness the contest, as
well as to partake of the many pleas
ures provided on this occasion, which
closes the season at this delightful re-
sort.
