LOCAL MENTION.

Martin X. Kimble, the well-known
proprietor of the Dyberry Hotel, near
the Fair Grounds, died suddenly of apo
plexy at his home yesterday forenoon. A
suitable notice of the deceased will ap-
pear in onr Fridays issue.
This entertainment at the Lyric to-
morrow, Thursday night, offers the first
opportunity that the public has had this
year to know what the Honesdale
schools are doing in public speaking
and music. The Lyric ought to be crowd
ed. The winners at this entertainment
will represent the local school in the
coming scholastic contest with Dunmore
and Carbondale.
Among the students for the ministry
OF the Methodist Episcopal church,
who passed the examinations at the ses-
sions of the Wyoming Conference, held
at Plymouth, last week, were the fol-
lowing:
Admission on trial {: Harry L. PEN
vile, South Canaan.
Third year: John Tuthill, Beach Lake.
Fourth year: Walter Walker, Narrows-
burg.
The Peninsular Emery Wheel Co.,
of Detroit, Michigan, for years owned
and managed by James McConville, has
been sold to Byron E. Hamlin, president
of the Horton-Cato Manufacturing Co.,
who was former resident of Sterling
township, this county. Mr.. Hamlin is
understood to have made the purchase
as an investment. The capitalization of
the company is $25, 200, and it has an
established market in the United States
and Canada for its products, which are
emery, corundum and adamite wheels.
The homestead farm of the late
Thomas and Mary Bellamy, of 81 acres,
located in Dyberry township, has been
sold by their sons, Charles H. and T.
Humphrey Bellamy, executors of the
estate, to John Hartman, of Oregon, i'm
mediate possession having been given.
Consideration private. The Bellamy
family occupied the place, which is pleas
antly located, and always regarded as a
desirable property, for more than fifty
years.
1t is hardly to be expected that our
streets will look at their best during the
spring breakup, but the ladies of the
Improvement Society venture to hope
that our citizens will do their best to-
ward keeping them presentable. A lit
tle special care and effort on the part of
each will count for much in the matter
Of the beauty and sanitary condition of
the town.
The much discussed dearth OF can
didates for the ministry seems not to be
felt in the Central Pennsylvania Con-
ference of the NJ. f. church. Last Fri
day, Bishop Hamilton, in his address to
the newly ordained ministers said "lf
you young men are not satisfied with the
polity of our church, you have the priv
ilege to 60 to some other denomination
where there is plenty of room, for we
have difficulty to find places for the men,
being overcrowded with ministers and
students in our theological seminaries."
In speaking of the prevalent evils of the
day, the Bishop sounded marked warn
ing against the increased worldliness of
the times. Said he: bridge whist is
wrecking the homes OF our country. Ex-
travagance and hypocrisy play promi-
nent parts in this country. As long as
We maintain our hypocrisy the world
will not advance"

NOTED COUNSEL
FOR JUDGE LOOK
Don M. Dickinson and F. A. Baker
Appear for Defendant in Dis
barment Case. Az

The greatest array OF legal talent
seen in the circuit court Tor seYesa-
years lined up In the defense "a Tor
mer- Judge Look. against " hom ciSOar
ment proceedings began before Judges
tturriu, murphy and ttUsuFr, Monday
morning Behind him sat Fred A, la
kerr Don NJ. Dickinson and Danioi j.
Campau. Attorneys Baker and Dick
inson were for years the very leaders
at the Detroit bar. and opponents i'll
many hard-fought lawsuits. Campau
and Dickinson have been bitter poll
teal opponents for years. Dut all these
differences were forgotten and the
men were particularly frieadly. 1t was
Mr.. Dickinsons FIRST appearance In
court for several years. and for nalf
an hour he was surrounded by attor'
neys. shaking hands.
'fhe only testimony heard Was that
OF Rudolph knorr, an aged German
with a defective memory. Il loud voice
and disposition TO talk. he testified
that he gave 10 Mr.. Look a mortgage
for $50 Tor safe keeping, and that ne
had never received cent in return
since Beyond that, his memory was
defective, his testimony being a mass
OF .mmatertai- matter, full of contra
dictions.
His cross-examtnation was conduct
ed by the accused attorney. who was
constantly coached by the trio OF en-
minent lawyers. Mr. Look question
ed Knorr at length about his lomes-
tic affairs and particularly about his
divorce. During this questioning he
asked knorr II he knew a Bertha Seip.
The old man said he never knew her.
and never had lived in her home on
Harper-ave. lie said he was sure OF
that, and declared loudly that he had
never heard the name before. Then
the woman was called forward and
Knorr shook hands with her and the
two conversed for some minutes in
German. Then Knorr admitted that
perhaps he did know her. and he
might have lived in her house.
What has all this got TO with the
case, anyway" asked Judge Murtin--
Il want 10 show that this man is a
liar" Mr.. Look answered. He is d
iiaf- affd-f-cau prove It.
II is charged that IInorr gave Look
a mortgage for $50 for safe keeping,
the proceeds of which were TO pay for
his keep by the Little Sisters OF the
Poor. This mortgage, II is alleged,
Look used TO raise money TO pay OF
q debt or his own TO local bank.
Attorneys Harris and Perry are con
Quoting the case against Look. The
hearing will probably last several
days.
Attorney Herbert G. Munroe. repre-
senting the heirs of Joseph Bendef
is about TO start suit against the
bondsmen of Look TO recover the pro
ceeds or the sale OF personal prop
erty belonging 10 the estate. LooS
was appointed special administrato:
of the estate, and. 1t Is alleged, sole
the personal property and failed e
turn over the proceeds. Suit was
brought against him in the circuit
court and a Judgment given. Lcok
appealed TO the supreme court ano
the appeal was dismissed. Suit Will
now be entered against the pondsmen
