News Snapshots
Of the Week
NEW INDUSTRY
STOCK NEARLY ALL SOLD

The Company is Capitalized at $780,
600, of Which $4,000 in Common
Stock is Held by the Incorpors-
tors.
The Honesdale Union-Stamp Shoe
Company made application to Gov
ernor Edwin S. Stuart on March 5th
for a charter. This company has a
five years lease of the Myers four
story brick building at the corner
of Willow Avenue and Cliff street,
and hope to start manufacturing
shoes about April lst. The directors
for the first year are John Weiser,
president; John X. Seitz, vice presi-
dent; Geo, p. Ross, secretary-treas-
urer; E. c. Mumford, solicitor; II.
NJ. Williams, w. ]. Lane, F. A.
Reitenauer, Anthony Okowitz, John
Tierney, F. A. Drummer, Charles b.
Boyd, Fred S. Cory, Fred Seitz and
Peter Sutton.
While the plans under which this
company has been organized, have
been discussed by shoe workers for
long time, the credit for carrying
them to incorporation is due largely
to President Weiser. The company
is capitalized at 100000, of which
$4,000 in common stock is held by
the incoTporators. OF the 10000
preferred stock more than half has
been subscribed with but little soli-
citation. The shares are 500 each
at seven per cent. interest. If any
one would like one or more shares
they may be obtained by applying to
any of the directors before April 1st.
This company proposes to manu-
facture mems, boys and youths
working shoes on which the union
stamp will be placed. Eleven of the
incorporators are practical shoe
workers, who have had years of ex-
perience in Honesdale's two shoe
factories. They represent every de-
partment of the work and each has
the reputation of being among the
best in his department.
Honesdale should appreciate this
new industry and encourage the men
who have placed the savings of a
life time in It. Their whole future
depends upon their making a sue
cess of this enterprise. viii they
make it? Anybody who knows the
men composing the company feel
confident of their success, because
they are temperate, honest and in
dustrious, and most of them have
proved to be good business mana
gers. Several of them are directors
of the Wayne County Cooperate
store which is a success.
Seven of the men have been in the
employ of the Durland-Weston Co.
from boyhood They gave notice
week ago of their intentions and
they will leave their old positions in
a short time with amicable feeling
between them and their employers.

was the restfulness of the place
that and the hope on the faces of
some new arrivals who climbed the
mountain just behind us, and the
radiant happiness of those who were
going home cured. There were
plenty of other things-the air
which must have been a surprise to
my Pittsburg lungs-the order and
cleanliness of the place, its size for
it looks and is a trim village, the
cheerful faces of the attendants as
well as the patients, the beautiful
Incidence of the convalencents, and,
oh yes, the deer. Imagine having
wild deer that are not wild and that

down and eat the new wheat under
our very noses"

A TEST OF SHOP CAPACITY.

Monday morning of last week work
was started in the Susquehanna Erie
shops on class II 21 locomotive for
a general overhauling. This particu-
lar job is being done as test to de-
termine how quickly the work can be
done by the workmen in the local
shops. From what can be learned,
the contention has been that it cost
more to give an engine a general
overhauling in the Susquehanna
shops than to do the same work in
the Meadville or Hornell shops.
This statement, il is said, was de-
MED by Master Mechanic II. H..
Harrington, and in order to prove
his assertion that his shop turned
out the work as cheaply or cheaper
than the other shops, he suggested
this test. The work of stripping
this engine was started Monday
morning, and the work of repairing
win go steadily on until the engine
is ready for its trial trip. Much in
terest is being manifested in this
contest by the workmen, who claim
that they will prove that the Erie
Company is making a big mistake
in not sending more work to the
Susquehanna shops.

and Escort to American
Ex-President.

Khartum. Sudan, March 15.-ColoneI

tum under the escort and guidance of
Major General Sir Francis Wingate.

taken charge of the distinguished Wis
IT,
Everywhere he goes Colonel Roose-
velt is greeted with enthusiasm, and
the foreigners here hail him as a hero.
He is being lionized as he never was
at home. His pictures are seen in
every bazaar and store, and the Amer
lean flag flies in his honor from a
thousand staffs.
The arrival of the ex-president at
the monument to General Gordon was
the signal for burst of cheering that
continued as long as he remained on
the ground. Colonel Roosevelt ac-
knowledged the greeting by raising
his hat repeatedly and smiling with
the best of good nature.
At the luncheon hour Colonel Roose-
welt was escorted to the palace of the
sirdar, at the steps of which he was
received by the high Sudan officials.
The passage from the steps to the pal
ace door was lined by members of the
sirdar's bodyguard, and as Colonel
Roosevelt passed between the lines he
again raised his hat in response to the
salutations of the throng Despite its
enthusiasm. the assemblage was most
respectful in its attitude toward its
guest. and the welcome could scarcely
have been made more agreeable.
Within the palace Colonel Roosevelt
received all of the higher officials OF
the government, after which refresh
ments were served. Mrs. Roosevelt
and Miss Ethel Roosevelt sat at the
same table with the eX-president.
Colonel Roosevelt's garb would have
made Il popular hit under similar con-
ditions in America, but here it caused
the spectators TO chuckle. 1t consisted
of weather worn helmet. a suit OF
khaki, a green tie. a gray shirt, knick-
erbockers, leather knee caps and leg
gings and hObnailed shoes.
Colonel Roosevelt spoke enthusiastic
ally about his hunting trip but he
acknowledged that he was trifie
homesick and was not sorry to return
to civilization. His party secured an
enormous bag of game in the Sudd
district, where, he said. they had not
been troubled at all by mosquitoes.

BILE pest.
The bag included nine white rhinO
ceroses, which are exceptionally rare,
and three giant Glands. The Glands
We're such magnificent specimens that
the colonel expressed greater pleasure
at securing them than any other tro-
phies.
Colonel Roosevelt was much inter
ested in the Uganda missions and
spoke in high terms of the Lado En-
clave, which he visited.
Colonel Roosevelt bade farewell
here to the faithful blacks of his ex-
pedltion, who came in charge of the
barge full of faunai specimens. They
will go TO MOmbasa by way of Cairo.
He was much affected, as were the
men, especially his two gun bearers,
who have risked their lives with him.
