EVERYONE INTERESTED.

There is not man, woman or
child who is not interested in Homes
dale-their home town. Interested
to degree that they are proud their
lot is cast in such pleasant and
progressive place. Honesdale is one
of the oldest towns in this section
of the State and it has a history
that many towns envy, being the
place where the first locomotive to
turn a wheel on the Western hemis-
phere occurred. Honesdale was for
many years the largest coal storage
market ip the world, although not a
mining town. 1t was in Honesdale
that the first Village Improvement
association was organized, and to-
day there are thousands like organ
izations throughout the United
States
Industrially Honesdale ranks high
in the, production of rich cut glass,
electric elevators, knit, wooden, and
muslin goods, shoes, and other neces-
stiles of life. Although it is fore
most as manufacturing center it
lacks one thing, and that is slo-
gan. Every town of Importance, es-
pecially If any progress is manifested
along an industrial line, has slo-
gan. Can you guess suitable slo-
gan for Honesdale?
The Greater Honesdale Board OF
Trade has offered prize of SIS for
an appropriate slogan for Homes
dale. The contest is open to any
body, anywhere, anytime before
November 10 at IL, noon. The slo-
gan is limited to ten words. Ad-
dress communications containing slo-
gans with your name, the latter
however, will not be published, to
Secretary Greater Honesdale Board
of Trade, Honesdale, Pa.
Here are few slogans that have
been received since the announce
ment made last week:
nesdale-Always Humming."
Honest value goods made here"
"Honesdale is the Growing city OF
Northeastern Pennsylvania"
'In memory of Irving's lofty peak,
And the Stourbridge Lions roaring;
With visions of Hudson's mighty
fleet,
To a Greater Honesdale is grow.

Let Honesdale Do IT,

"Honesdale Booming and Grow.
ing"
"Honesdale, the White Mans
Hope"
''Honesdale Will Get There Yet"
"The town that delivers the goods
-Honesdale.'
"If you're ''in wrong" "get
right" to Honesdale."
Since you christened me,
Mr.. Hone;
See how Industrious

Make more room ON the MAJ

"We shoot you the breechel

Disease killing the Pheasants.

Reports from hunters who have
been through the woods recently are
that the pheasants, unusually fat and
luscious for this season of the year
are dying from an epidemic similar
to the chicken cholera. The birds,

MURDER
MYSTERY TAKES
STARTLING TURN
Three Women Said to Have
Heard Promise to Beulah
Binf0rd.

RICHMOND, Va, Aug. Ian mex
pected and startling turn was given to
the great Beattie auto murder mystery
today when it became known that the
plans of the prosecution at the trial of
Henry Clay Beattie, jr., which is ex-
pected to open Monday, have been en-
tirely misinterpreted.
Everyone here has believed that Beu-
lah Binford, the affinity in the case,
boldly and brazenly accepted the atten-
tons of young Beattie, well knowing
that he was a married man.
The facts. it was learned today, are
just the contrary, and are substan-
tiated by three witnesses. Beulah Bin
ford had put Beattie out Of her life and
had not seen him for some time when
they met by accident at a baseball
gam in Norfolk. There Beattie re-
newed his pleas to the girl, and, the
prosecution will contend, met with the
answer that the girl would have moth
ing to do with him while he was mar
ried; that the only condition upon
which she would consider resuming
their relationship was that he get rid
of Mrs. Besttie.
1t is not commended that by getting
rid of Mrs. Beattie the girl had murder
in mind. It is thought she intended to
have Beattie understand that he must
divorce his wife, or let her divorce
him.
Three women, it is said, heard Beat
tie reply he would get rid of his wife.

WOUND FROM ROSE BUSH
CAUSES W0MAN'S DEATH.

GREENPORT, L. l., Aug. ia tiny
wound from a thorn on a rose bush, it
vas learned yesterday, caused the
death of Susan Reichart, daughter of

flowers on the grave a rose thorn
scratched one of her fingers. That
night the finger began to swell. Al
though friends advised her to consult
a physician, as there appeared to be
every indication of blood poisoning.
Miss Reichart failed to- call medical

Hong Kong, China.


Dear Bill:
I am visiting China with a college
professor and not n of the regular
kind, either. He liz DR.. George Dorsey,
Of the Field Museum. His de-
grees trail after his name like smoke.
He has been investigating social and
political conditions in Europe and
India.
The first impression of the Euro
pean section Of Hong Kong is that of
landing in an up-to-date American
city. The town is full of Americans.
We cherish our childhood ideas about
Cinnamon eating rats, smoking opium
and numbering missionaries right in
Main street. We think the leading in
dustry of China must be laundries.
Two days in China and we have seen
just one rat-carried by a boy, and he
used tongs. The native shops are
clean and modern. The missionaries
sleek and happy.
The professor and I went to buy
some opium pipes and Jade rings. The
