HONESDALE MAY BUY HENDRICKS
HOOK AND LADDER EQUIPMENT

Twelve able-bodied citizens of
Honesdale descended upon the fire
committee of the Carbondale coun-
Gil and a committee of the Hendricks
Hook and Ladder company at Car
bondale city hall Monday afternoon
and before the interview ended
HonesdaN had secured an option of
the Hendricks extinguish-
ers, horses, ladders and everything
which is in the market simply be-
cause the council and Mayor A. l..
Sahm cannot agree on certain points
in city government.
The Honesdale delegation was
strong enough, politically, physical
ly and other ways, to get anything
the borough wanted. 1t was headed
by the Mayor, who early in the day
had expected to take with him to
Carbondale only Councilmen George
w. Penwarden and Wyman w.
Kimble and Chief Engineer John M.
Lyons and Secretary Frank w.
Schuerholz of Protection No. 8. At
the last minute seven more men were
easily procured to take the automo-
bubble ride over the Moosics. Three
councilmen went, four officers of the
fire company, one member of Hose
company No. /, and four other men
who, though not councilmen or fire.
men, were taken along for ballast.
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1910-09-21

Three cars were used, and here is
the complete roster of the party:
John Kuhbach, Walter Fowler,
Wyman W. Kimble, Thomas j. Can
avan, John NJ. Lyons, Harry Oday,
William B. Roadknight, Frank w.
Schuerholz, Eugene H. Courtright
(handy with the Chinaman's auto
mobile), Harry Freeman, Charles A.
Emery, Herman Myers.
The apparatus of the Hendricks
company was looked over and the
three horses-two of them are bays,
the other a roan-were hitched up
and driven.
II never saw a prettier team of
fro Aherses," said tthe Mayor Most
of his companions agreed.
When the II good men and true"
got back to Honesdale Monday night
they said they had had a pleasant
outing and the Mayor, acting as
spokesman, press agent and so on,
admitted Honesdale had secured an
option on the Hendricks property.
I'VE won't give out the figures
just yet" said he, but they are
low"
The stuff cost $4,5OO. 1t can be
bought, horses and all, for $2,1O0,
the Mayor said last week The talk
around town last night was that
Honesdale had offered $4,000 fiat.

At Least, Paper There Hears Such a
Report concerning Honesdale

At Least, Paper There Hears Such a
Report concerning Honesdale
Glass Shop.
A representative of the Herbeck-
Demer company, Honesdale manu-
facturers of cut glass, has been con-
ferring with members of the Nichol-
son Board of Trade, with the end in
view of removing the plant to this
place.
The company asks that Nicholson,
in order to secure the industry, which
carries on its payroll over 100 peo-
pie, provide a lot 150x300 feet and
erect a concrete building 60x1S0
feet, the estimated cost of which
would be about $4,000. The COM
pany agrees, in event of acceptance
of the proposition, to turn over to
Nicholson the Honesdale plant,
valued at SIS, 700, subject to a mort
gage of $1,000.
The proposition is being held un-
der advisement by the Board of
Trade, and If considered favorably
will result in giving Nicholson a
great, Industrial boom.-Nicholson
Record.
Representatives of the firm de-
clared emphatically Monday that
there wasn't thing in the report.

News Snapshots
Of the Week
GOES TO DANV|LLE.
COMMISSION OF THREE DECIDES
MATTHEW ii. HEUSEL is IN
SANE AND so REPORTS
THOUGHT HE WAS BEING
CHEATED OUT OF $11, 900 AND
THAT BLACK HAND WAS AT
TER HIM.

Matthews H. Heusel, who was ar
rested and locked up that rainy Sat-
urday a fortnight ago to await ex-
animation as to his sanity, on Fri
day was declared insane by DR..
Louis B. Nielsen, Attorney w. H.
Lee and T. H. Menner, the commit
tee that sat on his case. Heusel will
be sent to Danville.
For some time Heusel has been
acting and talking queerly. Every
body he met noticed that. He went
to the house of a man in Honesdale
who for some time has been a pub
lie charge and asked him what he
had done with all his (Heusel's)
property. He was told the property,
a matter of S11, 900, had been COB
bled by a Wayne county manufac-
turer who vowed he wouldn't give it
up for love nor money. Then Heusel
commenced to camp on the trail of
the manufacturer in supposed pos
session of the imaginary $1,000.
He also paid visit after visit to the
counsel of the $1,000 man and
bothered the lawyer with his morn
ing, noon and night visits to demand
his property. The lawyer got
sick of this and started the lunacy
proceedings that have led to the
putting away of Heusel.
In the Jail Heusel acted as strange
ly as he had acted out of jail. He
did not talk so much about the $11 =
600 clause of his troubles, but he
got an idea into his head that the
Black Hand fraternity was after him
that a couple of thugs in the pay
of the society to assassinate people
got into his cell one night and came
near humping him off. He told
Sheriff Braman about the Black
Hand visit. The sheriff tried to
laugh him out Of it. He only vast
ed his time.
At the hearing before the COM
mission Heusel said he was well
treated at the jail. He said the
sheriff gave him enough to eat and
drink.
Does the sheriff give you plenty
to drink? was one question.
Sure" was the answer. He sets
up the beer three times a day"
Soon after this answer the com
mission decided their man was not
exactly right in the head and so
reported.

ANOTHER CHERRY RIDGE FIRE.
Barn of Mrs. Rose 60 Up in
Flames Sunday Night.

Flames Sunday Night.
CHERRY RIDGE, Sept 2O.-Two
barns belonging to Mrs. Sarah Rose,
wife OF John Rose. burned Sunday
night shortly after ] / o'clock. With
them into ashes went 25 tons of hay
and lot Of grain and farming i'm
plements.
Mrs. Rose says the loss will go
close to $4,000. She was insured
for $l15O in the Wayne County
Farmers Mutual.
The fire, Mr.. Rose is pretty GER
tain, was an incendiary fire. It may
have been started by tramps or some
eyilly disposed person, but whoever
did the Job left no clue Of any con-
sequence behind.
2ir Rose had two horses and 13
COWS out at pasture. No stock what
sOever was in the barn. All the win
ter's stock of feed except some corn
fodder was burned.
This is the second barn destroyed
by fire in Cherry Ridge this fall. The
barn of Mrs. Frances Bonear went
up In flames a fortnight ago and a
young driving horse worth $500 or
more was burned, but the Bonear
fire was not set, Mrs. BOnear and
the neighbors believe. The fire
started at O'Clock and the structure
was across the road from the house
in plain sight from the front win
dOWs.

WHO IS THIS MANI
LETTERS FOUND IN TRUNK OF
MRS. LEVY ARE ADDRESSED
"MY LITTLE SWEETHEART"'
AND WRITER LIVED IN HOMES
DALE AT TINIE-YOU KNOW
HIM >

NEW YORK, Sept. 20.-Neither
alimony nor counsel fee will be re-
ceived by Mrs. Sadie Levy in the
suit for divorce brought by DR..
Isaac Levy of One Hundred and
Eleventh street and Lenox avenue,
Manhattan. Supreme Court Justice
Putnam so decided in Brooklyn, but
gave no reason for denying the ap-
plication.
Mrs. Levy is known on the vaude-
vile stage as Josephine Davis and
her husband intimates her fondness
for the stage caused them to part.
They were married five years ago.
After two years, the doctor alleges,
his wife told him her love fer him
was not sufficiently strong to over
come her yearning for the footlights.
She said she must go into vaudeville
again.
The plaintiff asserts he wrote his
wife frequently after she left, asking
her to return, but she refused.
Finally, DR.. Levy says, he heard
statements about his wife that led
him to change the tenor of his let
ters. He informed her she was
about to be made defendant in a suit
for absolute divorce.
Then my wife replied" DR.. Levy
says, stating she had been untrue
to me and advising me to get a di-
vorce. In one letter she stated she
would not oppose the suit. She
seemed to attribute all her trouble
to her love of a wandering life"
Through his attorney, Louis Gold
stein, 26 Court street, Brooklyn, DR..
Levy alleges about a year ago he
found in his wifes trunk a letter
from Honesdale, Pa, addressed to
Dear Little Sweetheart" and sign
ed your Own Dod."
Mrs. Levy denied the principal al
legations of her husbands COM
plant, particularly that she has been
guilty of misconduct with Henry
Scherer of Cincinnati. She makes
counter charges against the doctor
naming two young women.
When the New York dispatch was
shown to several men in town who
claim to know the tricks and turns
of the love pirates of Honesdale they
mostly believed Mrs. Levy must
have been at Beach lake in the sum
mer time and there met the Homes
dale man, if there is one, who made
all the trouble. There was a Mrs
Levy, one OF them said, who came
up from New York to recreate at the
lake, but her husband may or may
not have been a doctor, this inform.
ant added
The New York World had a spread
eagle story about the Levy affair
and since this came out the sale OF
Mr. Pulitzer's paper has increased
somewhat in Honesdale and the
vicinity.
