Shoemakers' Picnic Very Happy
Outing

Railroad and lake employees agree
that the Shoemakers' excursion,
which took upwards of 700 people
from Honesdale to Lake Lodore
Tuesday, was the most orderly and
prosperous-appearing big party that
has visited the resort this summer.
The roads about the lake were some
what muddy in the morning, but the
hot sun of the afternoon dried them
considerably and mud didn't curtaiI
the fun of the young folks.
The merry-go-round carried g.
600 that day. The chutes were
ridden by 1000. The figure rail-
road sold 1000 tickets There was
only one accident all day, and that
one did not amount to much. Mrs.
Martin Moran fell while walking to
the boat that lands near the merry
go-round and landed on her face,
getting a slight bruise.
The Honesdale band, leader Wag-
ner, discoursed its customary sweet
music and the Maple City drum
corps, which rode to the lake in
the smoker of the l o'clock special,
was the life of the outing. During
the afternoon the corps marched to
brigade headquarters of the Junior
o. U. A. NJ. camp and serenaded
Gen. Riskel and his staff, who ex-
pressed themselves as delighted
with the fine work of Major Car
michaels boys. The special train
of II cars brought back to Homes
dale a happy and contented crowd,
every member of which will aim to
be on hand when Local 377 goes on
its 1911 outing.

ERIE OFFICERS ASK QUESTIONS.
Want To Know If Foremen Belong
to Any Union.

A Turner, n. Y, news item says
speculation along the valley as to
the precise reason for the trip TAX
en- by several of the heads of the
Erie railroad in a special train a
few days ago. The train went along
the Erie and Jersey to Otisville and
Port Jervis.
Quite a number of stops were
made and nearly all the track fore
men along the line were questioned.
Among the questions the foremen
were asked was whether they belong
TO any union; whether they intend
ed to belong to any union, and what
action they would take If a propo-
made them.
1t is impossible to say what an
swers the men made, as the ques-
tions, in some cases, actually took
away their breaths.
Those men who kept their wits
about them gave the soft answer
that turneth away wrath and they
will be looked after" so the say
ing goes.
The feeling among the men in re-
gard to the matter is one of mixed
amusement and anxiety. They are
puzzled to know what the object of
the investigation was. 1t is said
quite a number of them were told
they would be given an increase but
that they would not know what the
amount was until first payday.

months rest and vacation. About him
were many members of his official
family, there to bid him godspeed
President Pedro Montt of Chile, who
was to be fellow passenger, had not
half minute before gripped the may
Or's hand in friendly salutation, and
the distinguished South American ex-
ecutive was where the smoke cloud
from Gallagher's revolver swept across
his face
Mayor Gaynor was just in the mid
die of little passage at repartee with
DR.. Ernst q. Lederle, head of the de-
partment of health. He had extended
his hand to poke the commissioner
pIayfully In the ribs-then the shot.
A hand to hand struggle between
some of the mayors subordinates and
the assassin followed on the deck of
the steamer.
Then more shots sounded above the
noise of half chicken oaths and the
frample of fest. shrieks from the pas
sengers tha4 crowded the rails at the
business Of waving farewells, the bel
lowing of orders in raucous German
by deck officers of the liner
All of that within a compass of a
half minute. Then there was the
mayor of New York, still standing on
his feet but grievously wounded, the
victim of a man who tried to do muir
der. And there on the deck at his feet
this Gallagher. writhing in the grip of
manacles that clasped his wrists and
swapping his jaws at the feet and
hands of the men who sat on him.
The mayor left his home In st. James
on Monday afternoon, after he had
hidden farewell to all of his family
save one, and with this one, his son
Rufus, he came into New York and
stopped for the night at the Hotel
Manhattan until he went to the steam
ship
Gallagher attempted the assassina.
'ion just as Mayor Gaynor pointed a
Joke by poking DR.. Lederle gently in
the ribs.
Just at that instant a hand reached
up from behind Mayor Gaynor's back,
and the muzzle of short bulldog re-
volver was placed against his neck.
There was a click, the sound made by
the dropping of hammer upon a dead
percussion cap, then a report.
you've stolen my bread and butter,
damn you!"
Those We're the words that We're
bawled over the mayors shoulder in
the instant between the clicking of the
revolver hammer on the dead cap and
the explosion of the shell.
For just hairs breadth of time
there was silence. One of the photog-
raphers who had leveled his camt<a
before the shot to catch the mayors
farewell smile clicked his shutter by
the very involuntary reaction that
tugged his finger
Then cry from Adamson, "Oh God,
he's shot the mayorv'
Each of the men standing about the
mayor wheeled and saw Gallagher
standing there with his arm just lift
ing with the movement OF cooking his
revolver again. Adamson jumped
squarely at him and threw up the re-
volver hand. Just as he did so the
weapon exploded and the bullet went
whistling over the roof of the steamer

1t is possible that some evilly dis
posed person, or mayhap more than
one, attempted to wreck the d. &
H. passenger train due in Homes
dale at $50 as it passed No. 4 pond,
near Farview, Wednesday morning.
Three spikes left lying on the rail
might have made serious trouble.
The engine, with Engineer Ar
mold at the throttle, jumped, but it
did not leave the rails. A little
further on two more spikes were ly-
ing loose on the track. The for
ward truck of the engine went over
them. The first spike struck the
wheels of the tender, not the en-
gine.
The gypsy band that was caught
that morning near the pond and
forced to disgorge the $27 taken by
one of the women from the bar of
the Halfway house were suspected
by some of the farmers in that
neighborhood as having had some
thing to do with it, but railroad
men do not take much stock in the
gypsy story. The roads detectives
have been on this division ever since
an attempt, as they believe, was
made to derail a train just out of
Carbondale one day last week.
Notices have been posted all
along the Delaware and Hudson Of
fering reward of 81 900 for the
arrest of the person or persons who
caused the derailment at the Latin
station. The company offers the
same reward for the arrest of the
person or persons that caused the
wreck of the Central flyer at
Pittston July 90. or for the arrest in
the future of any person or persons
tampering with the rolling stock of
the company.

APPEALS TO HIM--FAVORS
A TAG TO COST A DIME, NOT
ONE SELLING FOR A QUAR-.
TER--CoMNLITTEES TO RE-
PORT.
The Friday night meeting of the
Greater Honesdale Board of Trade
in town hall will be public Presi-
dent c. j. Smith will call it to or
der at exactly s o'clock, and he and
his brother officers want full
house, both members and others,
to be on hand to hear the commit
tee on membership report and also
to talk further about the PROPOSE
ton to have Tag day during the
Wayne county fair in October.
Speaking about the tags, J. B.
Nielsen, who acted for Secretary E.
B. Galloway, wrote to the Scranton
branch Office of the Whitehead &
Hoag button business for samples
and got some. Wednesday Mr..
Nielsen, than whom there is no
Board member more interested and
wideawake, showed the secretary
and the secretary's brother news
papermen a button that Mr.. Nielsen
seemed to think was just what the
doctor ordered. 1t was button
large enough to carry the words,
Greater Honesdale; All Work."
and he will advocate this button,
to retail at a dime, not at quarter,
the figure favored by Chairman
Leopold Blumenthal of the press
committee, who is the father of Tag
day in Honesdale.
The resolution asking the Board
to affix it's o. X. to the suggestion
that a big hotel on Irving cliff
would be a tiptop thing for the
growth of Honesdale was tabled at
the last meeting. If it's author, a
widely known Honesdale man, is at
Friday nights meeting, this resolu-
tion is likely to be taken from the
table and threshed over.
