pick in the hands of Leona Lord
about the time Sam Reed was hack
ing Sike Lords head with a hoe.
District Attorney NJ. e. Simons
said today he understood Lord might
live several days, but that he hard
ly expected the old man to get up.
He has told Coroner Searles to be in
readiness to go up to Equinunk at
any time to hold an inquest. The
district attorney and Sheriff Braman
have thus far found it necessary to
make only one trip to Equinunk.
That was last Friday and Saturday.
The arrest of Leona Lord and her
son, Millard Lord, took place Sat

Allen Lloyd, neighbor of all the
parties at Equinunk, was in Homes

his counsel, o. L. Rowland, with

Work BY Wayne County and

Working together without the
clash and friction that sometimes
spoils results when county officers
and railroad specials set out to clean
up bothersome gangs, County De-
tective Nick Spencer and Erie
Detective Frank Kelly, the six
feet seven crook chaser known
on the Delaware division as
Long" Kelly, have gotten about all
the men implicated in the car-break-
ing and beer-stealing at Hawley July

cases and one barrel of beer appro-
priated by gang of six or seven,
not ali local talent, the county de-
tective and the Erie officer believed,
the Eries force of gumshoe men,
had Kelly take a run over from Port
Jervis to Hawley to see what could be
done to find the culprits. Lieut..
Ralph of the Erie, whose headquar-
ters are at Dunmore, asked Spencer
to come in on the deal, and all last
week the Wayne county officer and
Long" Kelly, a conspicuous man in
Hawley and everywhere else where
lie works up cases, were around the
yards and up and down the tracks,
trying to land the bunch.
Last week John Hendry, aged II,
son of William Hendry of Marble
Hill, was arrested by Spencer and
Guy Ralph and brought before JUS

train riding and with having broken
a window in the West Hawley depot

That was the beginning.
The first man to be pulled on sus'

we'll known in the village. He was
brought before Justice zimmerman
and held in 5000 for trial. He got

Chauncey Tyler, whom Spencer

Carbondale Pokes Fun at Nick.

Says the Carbondale Leader:
The baseball contest in Honesdale
on Saturday, which will be the first
of series of games, promises to vie
in point of interest with the series
which were played between the old
association team and the Maple City
group.
The Honesdale papers feel san
guine that their representative team
will have a walk-over and they give
the credit of victories for the local
team TO professional players who
were secured from out-of-town. If
they still have an umpire like Nick
Spencer, more professionals will be
needed this year. mick" certainly
was a favorite among the Maple
City enthusiasts-and that's all.
The day that he displayed his silk
supporters at a game on Duffy's
field he even shocked the delegation
of visitors from his own town.

Swift Growing Corn in Susquehanna.

A wager was made between two
Susquehanna county farmers as to
how much stalk of corn will grow
in a single day. One of them said
that a certain healthy stock of corn
about waist high would grow one
inch, while the other wagered that
1t would grow two inches. Accord
ingly a stake was driven in the
ground so that its top came even
with the highest blade of the stalk.
At the same hour the following day
an examination was made and it
was discovered that the stalk of corn
had grown just four inches,-Car-
bondale Leader.

PROMOTE BETTER ROADS

WOULD RUN TO WAYNE COUN-
TY LINE.

A dispatch from Stroudsburg says:
Property owners in Monroe county
and committee from Scranton met
cuss plans for betterment of roads
in Coolbaugh township. Those pres
ent were Messrs. Leech, Johnson and
Dunning of Scranton and Messrs.
LaBar, Britain, Lynch, Toohey, DR..
Rhoads, E. w. Chamberlain, Louis
Kohn, George T. Smith, William
Transue and Stewart Quick.
The end in view is to secure a
good road across Coolbaugh town
ship, which would run from the
Wayne county line to Tobyhanna,
thence to Mt. Pocono, the township
line being near the Pocono Mountain
house. The Scranton men have been
interesting themselves in the cause
of good roads over the Pocono and
for that purpose have subscribed a
large sum of money and have built
a five mile stretch of road from Elm
hurst to Moscow. This roads wear
ing quality has proved to be as SER
viceable as the state road and is
constructed along the same line as
the state macadam roads.
State Highway Commissioner j.
w. Hunter of Harrisburg and State
Inspector Arthur w. Long of Scran-
ton have been in town preparatory to
visiting in the vicinity of Bushkill

Larry Donovan, the delicious young
Irishman in 1.-THE House of A Thou
sand Candles" is the hero in Rosa
lind at Redgate," the latest story by
Meredith Nicholson to find its way to
the stage. Donovan is the type of
Irishman as he really is, not the sort
of buffoon usually seen on the stage,
but a whole-souled, full-blooded, good
natured chap with we'll developed
bump of humor. In "The House of
A Thousand Candles" he showed his
ability to keep every one in a good
humor during the critical moments,
and in "Rosalind at Redgate,' Mr..
Nicholson let's him step into the lime
light, which is really his due reward
for possessing the most charming
character the stage has known in
years. "Rosalind at Redgate' will be
the offering at the Bijou next week
and will unquestionably prove one of
the most interesting events of the
present season in the dramatic line.

WHAT IRELAND WANTS
The Same Rights That Are Granted
to Other Colonies.

Much of the doubt and uncertainty
as TO what the demand OF Ireland for
Home really means is dispelled by
an article by John Redmond, leader
of the Irish Party in the British Par
Lament, in the October number of
"McClure's Magazine"
"This doubt and uncertainty" Mr..
Redmond declares, CONSTITUTED one of
the most formidable obstacles in the
path of Home Rule. Once the de-
mand is understood all the fears and
arguments of honest opponents must
vanish into thin air"
Mr.. Redmond goes on to show that
it is all very simple--lreland wants
nothing more nor less than the re-
storation of responsible government.
He continues: "The Irish demand is,
in plain and popular language, that
the government of every purely Irish
affair shall be controlled by the pub
lie opinion of Ireland, and by that
alone. We do not seek any altera-
ton of the constitution or supremacy
of the Imperial Parliament. We ask
merely to be permitted to take our
place in the ranks Of those other por-
lions of the British Empire-some
twenty-eight in number-which in
their own purely local affairs, are gov.
erned by free representative institu.
lions of their own. The moderate,
even modest demand has its root alike
in historic title and in the utter and
disastrous failure of the attempt since
1900 to govern Irish affairs by Brit
ish majority at Westminster. Historic
title may count for little nowadays
against superior force, but It Is po'
tent influence in the hearts Of Irish
