Mr., BOYDEN
FEELS
CONFIDENT
Certain That H0 Can Reim-
burse His Creditors If Per-
mittad TO Continue.

The committee OF creditors OF George
b. Boyden held a meetinr yesterday In
the office OF Nathan w. Littleheld and
considered further the question OF adjust
ment and continuation OF Mr.. Boyden's
business at Boyden Heights
The plan proposed by Mr. Boyden, as
presented at the former meeting OF the
creditors is practically as follows: That
the creditors form themselves into a cor
poration and mortgage the property at
Boyden Heights and elsewhere belonging
to Mr.. Boyden. issuing bonds TO secure
the payment OF the mortgage, Mr.. Boy
den TO be retained as manager under
salary. and the surplus profits to be ap-
piled TO the redemption of the bonds,
which are to be placed with a trust COM
pany.
discussion was held on the merits OF
the plan, but no action taken, as several
OF the creditors had not become thor
oughly familiar with IL. Another meet
ing will be held the latter part OF the
week.
Mr.. Boyden attributes his financial en-
barrassment to the heavy expense or
starting a new resort and the bad wealth
er of the past season. which sadly inter-
fered with the business, although on the
business done there was good, far
profit. The place proved popular. and its
success is undoubted. Mr.. Boyden claims.
Nearly all the creditors TO whom the
plan has been referred favor 4 and all
the committee are I'm favor. The COM
mittee arranged for a speedy ending OF
the work by explaining the plan TO the
creditors not yet seen. All the commit
tee and all the creditors who have been
seen are In favor OF the plan. The COM
mittee consists of George w. Williams of
the W, Z, Barrett company William H
Thurber OF the Tilden-Thurber company,
Frank O. Field of the Brownell e. Field
company and Attorney Nathan w. Lit
tlefeld
Mr. Boyden owns unincumbered real es-
tate in this city valued at $500 and a
farm In New Hampshire. taxed for $1,000
At Boyden Heights he has expended for
buildings. fixtures. furnlture and other
paraphernalia OF the business S53,195, or
about sl2000 more than his liabilities.

Williamsport, Oct. 2s.--Alderman G. V.

gal authority in order to render deci-
sion In n most peculiar lawsuit He re-

Mr.. Barnhardt has strange ideas OF WOO
ing To touch the heart OF his adored
one he made and presented to her rustic
tabourettes and other articles OF furni-
ture.
Then he would apparently loiter around
the house, until as Miss Updegrar as
serts. she was heartily tired of him. II
he found that she had other gentlemen
callers he would become jealous and
send n bill for the articles he had made
and presented to her.
Last January he took a bill for his
presents to Miss Updegraff TO Alderman
Savage. He wanted TO commence suit but
the alderman heard both sides and ad-
vised them 20 make a settlement
Mr.. Barnhardt wanted the cash or the
articles returned. Miss Updegran agreed
20 return the goods. Mr. Barnhardt went
20 the residence and took the articles
away In a wagon. and stored them I'm a
barn. lie then went 20 Alderman Savages
office. told what he had done. and said
that the bill was settled
After three months Miss Updegrafr
again appeared before the same alder
man and said Mr. Barnhardt was sending
her bills again for the same articles The
alderman inquired how Mr. Barnhardt
could ask payment for articles that had
been returned TO him
"Oh." Miss UpGegran replied. "he
brought them back and gave them to
me"
The alderman refused to take up the
matter.
Mr. Barnhardt also called on the alder
man lie alleged Miss Updegran had
coaxed him 90 bring the articles back.
The alderman still persisted he would
have nothing moro 90 do with the case
and Mr.. Barnharit went before Alderman
McMinn. whcr suit against Miss Uude-
graf for wages. labor and material fur
nished 20 the amount OF S33' was brought

We wish to thank our friends for

aim this year will be to give a better
paper, and we ask our citizens to
hand in their items, as the editor can't
be in every place all the time and he
therefore misses many good items,
and it is hard work, without the as
sistance of our citizens to get out q
good sheet. A good paper is the up
building of town, aud all should
lend their aid to that end.

The Country Editor has found the

merry entertainer and a royal good
fellow. rs
The Wisconsin Press Association
now lacks one year of being half
century old. BY comparison of
ages it would appear that newspapers
were we'll established throughout Wis
consin in it's earliest statehood, but
self-government and newspapers are
part Of every American community
from it's first formation.
The concomitant of development is
diversihcation. And this is true of
Wisconsin journalism. The presence
of the trade Journal is becoming more
and more prominent in the state. Be-
ginning with the Agriculturalist, and
the Dairyman, the demand has now
called forth the Beet Sugar Journal
and the Gamer Producer. Each in
dustry as it developes calls out pub
LEGATION, devoted to the discussion of
it's particular interests. And in the
Press Association could be found a
representation of many leading indus
tries of the state. Perhaps if this fact
was more closely looked after it would
bring into the Association the men
who n AXE it a special business to
gather and correlate all the informa-
tion concerning each particular line
