A PLAY Worth Seeing,

A play that is worth the seeing, one
i'll which there is meritorious acting, is
"Our New Minister" which comes to
the Grand, Monday night, to play a re-
turn engagement. No better pastoral
play has been seen in Carbondale, and
to this those who enjoyed it New Years
day will testify 1t teaches the lesson
of liberality in religious views in n
forceful manner, by simply giving Il
true picture of life as it is or has been
in the minded town of Hard

FOR new BOWLING ALLEY
Proprietor Williams of the American
House Considering Proposal to
Build One.

Proprietor Williams of the American
House Considering Proposal to
Build One.
1t is likely that Carbondale will have
another bowling alley, one of the latest
and most approved style. A proposition
TO install one has been made to Pro-
prietor Williams, of the American
house, and he is considering it. A
surprising number of queries as to u
bowling alley have been made to Mr..
Williams. Scarcely a day passes that
one or more drummers who are at the
hotel over night do not ask if they can
bowl q game or two and express sur
prise when informed that the hotel
lacks one. 1t was this that led Mr.
Williams to entertain a proposal for the
erection of one. Representatives of the
firm, which leads in the manufacture
of bowling alleys, We're in the city this
week with inducements for Mr.. Will
liams to place one in his hotel Mr.
Williams leans to the proposition and it
is probable that he will act on it. This
however, cannot be said with a,l-
thority, for he has not made no posi-
tive statement.
Inc erection OIL TINS alley, now that
there already is one here, and being
so publicly and desrably located
would give Il decided impetus to the
sportso OF bowling alpl in time make it
relatively as popular as in Scranton
There is no question as to the interest
that could be worked up among the
enthusiasts and it would be only Il
short time one could safely venture to
say until Carbondale could send play
ers to Scranton that would hold their
own with the cracks of that town. Car
. bondale has Il great reputation for
superiority in athletics and sports and
it is a sure bet that her sturdy lads
would not have to go away back and
sit down for any bowlers, even though
they might come from Scranton or
even Honesdale, where live the mighty
.(?) in all things.
The enthusiasts of Scranton would
be sure to cooperate in the efforts
to popularize sport so healthful and
beneficial as bowling, ana so free of
abuses and mentally stimulating be-
cause of the skill and spirit of contest.
In fact u few of the foremost bowlers
in Scranton are concerned in the effort
TO establish the alley ut the American
house. They are desirous of broaden
ing the field of competition.

beside the bar
And drank bowl OF lemonade and smoked
bad cigar;
The same old kegs and jugs we're there,
the ones we used to know,
When we were on the roundup, 1 ON, some

The barkeep is a new one, Tom the one

The other has a platc-glass front, his hair

And looks just like the one we knew some

Old Soak came up and called for booze, he
had the same old grin,
While others burned the lining from their
throat with Holland gin,
And women stood beside the door, some
faces scanned with woe,
And wept just as they used to weep some
IS years ago.
I asked about Our old-timc friends, tho.c
cherished sporty men,
And some were in the poorhousc, Tom, and
some we're in the pen
And one, the one we liked the best, the
hangman laid him low;
The world is much the same, dear Tom, as
IS years ago.

marked for its own,
He used to say that he could drink, or let
the stuff alone
He perished of the James II. Jams, out in
the cold and snow
All, few survive VINO used to booze some
rs years ago.
New crowds line up against the bar and
call for crimson ink;
New hands are trembling as they pour the
stuff they shouldn't drink;
But still the same old watchword rings,
"This rounds to me, you knoww
The same old cry of doom we heard some
IS years ago.
! wandered to the churchyard, Tom, and
there l saw the graves
OF those who used to drown themselves in
red fermented waves;
And there were women sleeping there
where grass and daisies grow,
Who wept and died Of broken hearts some
IS years ago.
And there were graves where children
slept, have slept for many year,
Forgetful OF the woes that markcd their
ftful sojourn here;
And meath tall white monument, In death
there lieth low,
The man who used to sell the booze some
IS years ago.
