Fires Cook Who
then Returns
Compliment

Breathing vengeance against her
employer for being discharged as
cook at the Hotel National, because
of drunkenness, Mrs. Jennie Hart
man, it is alleged, set fire to the mat
tress in her room, last Tuesday
morning.
The dining-room girl smelled
smoke and gave the alarm of fire.
Mr.. McArdle rushed into the cooks
room, which is just off from the
kitchen, and found the flames blaz-
ing merrily right in the centre of her
bed.
Quickly seizing the burning mat
tress, he carried it out doors, severe
ly burning his right hand and wrist
through the operation, but thankful
that the damage was no worse.
Mrs. Jennie Hartman, who, it is
said, has husband living in Scran-
ton, came here about six weeks ago
from the Electric City. Mr.. McArdle
secured ner services through a Scran-
ton employment agency.
Jennie attended to her duties
faithfully the first month. But lately
her fondness for liquid refreshment
got the better of her. She got in a
stew, Monday again. Disguised with
her performances, Mr.. McArdle gave
her until the next morning to pack
up and get out.
She packed her belongings, remov-
ed them to the laundry and asked
for her pay, the following morning.
She was informed that she would
have to clean her room before she
| left or she wouldn't get her pay.
Jennie snuffed around, got mad,
and went down stairs, ostensibly to
clean her room. Before she had been
there many minutes, the presence of
smoke in the house was detected by
one of the employees, the proprietor
notified and the incipient blaze
promptly eXtinguished,
| Thoroughly disgusted by her ac-
tions, Mr.. McArdle told the cook at
1890 a. M, that her train left
about 1925" and advised her to
leave at once, which she did, unwept,
unhonored and unsung.
Mr.. McArdles bright twelve-year-
old boy capped the climax by telling
his father:
Papa, the cook cleaned her room,
all right, didn't she?"
She certainly did.

Veteran Of Civil
War Lost i'm
Storm

Patrick H. Sheridan, aged Sc, a
veteran of the Civil war, residing in
New York city, who, with his daugh-
ter, Miss Minnie, has been spending
the summer at Lake Como, had the
unpleasant experience early this
week, of being lost for thirty hours
in the forests of Wayne county.
Mr.. Sheridan left the house at 8
o'clock Monday morning to go after
some wood to help get the breakfast
Stove length wood was hard to find,
and going farther and farther from
home, he finally lost his way in the
heavy woods and dense underbrush.
When the veteran failed to return,
the alarm was sounded, and the
farmers, for miles around, turned
out to hunt for him.
They searched for him all Monday
night, when the thunders rolled, and
the lightnings fieshed, and the very
elements howled in derision at their
fruitless efforts,
Drenched to the skin by the heavy
downpour, the men returned home
for breakfast Tuesday morning. At
ter hasty cup of coffee, they again
started out in quest of the lost sold
ier, whom they finally found at 2:15
o'clock Tuesday afternoon in Spruce
Lake Swamp. Soldier Sheridan, ut
terly exhausted by his exposure to
the fury of the wind and rain, weak
ened by his long tramp through the
trackless woods, was quickly taken
to the home of S. B. Woodmansee
where restoratives were applied, and
the unfortunate mans condition
made as comfortable as possible.

RAIN TOO LATE
TO HELP CROPS
More Rain Since Last
Thursday than all
Last Summer
BUCKWHEAT is DEAD; POTA-
TOES so SCARCE ONE-THIRD
OF FARMERS WILL HAVE
TO BUY.

More rain has fallen in Wayne
county since last Thursday than was
precipitated throughout the entire
Summer previous.
The rain was a good thing"
said a wealthy farmer to a Citizen
man. 1t won't help the crops
though. They are all too far gone.
1t might help corn to ear little
more, and fill up more. The sun has
killed the buckwheat. It's been too
hot. Everything is cooked. That's
all there is for it to help. The frost
will cut late buckwheat before it will
get to maturity.
y" Potatoes are going to be awfully
scarce. Nine out of ten farmers
haven't any more than they want.
One-third of the farmers will have to
buy this year.
"I expected thirty bushels from a
little quarter of an acre garden
patch, and l won't get ten, nor even
six bushels of good salable potatoes,
what you would want to buy if l
fetched them here.
Where they turn out good l
won't get half a bushel out of a row.
l get one decent potato out of hill,
out of some, two. 1t takes quite a
few hills to make a bushel. It's
been too hot That's all there is to
it.
I've got a brother. He's got a
good piece. If all turns out right
he'll have 100 bushes to the acre.
He's the only man that l know of
that's got any.
ga man that raises 200 bushels to
the acre gets a pretty good crop.
Quite number of years ago I'd get
% and 80 potatoes from hill, to
s inches long, and as big as my
wrist. That was digging potatoes.
1--WE never seen them grow that
way before or since That was ~
to 1 5 years ago. A man could go
out and dig 25 or 80 bushels of po-
tatoes in three hours, and give the
rest of the day to doing chores and
putting them in the cellar"

BASE BALL BRIEFS.

White Mills plays the County
Seaters on the silk mill grounds
next Saturday afternoon at o'clock.
The last game that White Mills
played here was the most exciting
game of the season and the fans can
look for some surprises and excite
ment in Saturdays game.
Labor Day, two big games will be
played in Honesdale between the
locals and the Taylorites. The
games will be called at 1915 a. m.
and 2:45 p. m. Taylor has three
times this season defeated Leon
Ross little boys, and Is probably the
best amateur team in the valley. The
locals expect to win both of these
games. The management is under
heavy expense in getting this team
on holiday, as they usually play at
home. Your liberality will be ap-
preciated.

SOLD LIQUOR
WITHOUT LICENSE
LuciSanO Arrested by De-
teCtive Spencer in
Dreher Township
HELD IN $500 BAIL FOR OCTO-
BIER GRAND JURY.

Domineco Lucisano was arrested
on Tuesday in Dreher township,
near Gouldsboro, by Detective N. B.
Spencer for selling liquor without
license and selling to minors.
AT the last court the constable
from that township, in his returns,
stated that liquor was being sold
without license by Domineco Lu-
cisano. For time the foreigner
conducted his hole-in-the-wall with
more or less precaution. He secur-
ed revenue stamp from the govern
ment and then formed club,
thinking that he would be protect
ed. The people living in the neigh
borhood were afraid of the man and
he in turn threatened to do bodily
harm to any one who woald inter-
fere with his business.
Detective Spencer was in the
place week and secured evidence
enough against Lucisano to convict
him of selling spurious, malt and
brewed liquors without a license
and came to Honesdale Monday On
Tuesday he was accompanied by Dis
trict Attorney M. e. Simons when
the arrest was made and the prison.
er was taken before Justice of the
Peace James R. Smith, South
Sterling. The justice held Lucisano
under $500 bonds and he being un-
able to secure anyone to go his bail
bonds he was brought to Honesdale
and landed in the county Jail.
District Attorney Simons has a
good clear case against Lucisano
according to evidence secured by
Detective Spencer, to whom a great
deal of credit is due for bringing
man of this character into the
hands of the law. Lucisano will be
held for the October grand jury.

A gas stove in the kitchen of Mrs.
William F. Briggs fashionable board
ing house at 10S Tenth street, got
afire Wednesday morning at S:45
O'Clock but beyond giving the dining
room girl and the boarders severe
scare, filling the room with smoke,
and burning a couple of towels, lit

Did we get scared?" said Miss
Margaret Cole, East honesdale, who
has charge of the establishment in
the absence of Mrs. Briggs, who is
at Carley Brook, to a Citizen man.

came in and put out the fire. There
was nc damage done. 1t just burned
a couple of towels.
walter Moore, one of the board
ers, grabbed his clothes and wanted
to run away. The rest of the board
ers had flown.
Eyes, l think I'll get over it,
she concluded not much the worse
for the early morning fright.
The late risers along Irving Boule'
ward were just slipping their coffee
when the ominous whistle sounded
the alarm of fire. This was the con

or one long or one short blast, to

provide such a simple means for re-
