November, a resolution was made
supplemented by a motion which
was regularly carried to the effect
that an assessment of one dollar only
be levied on each member to reim-

CHAS. E. WRIGHT COMMITS
SUICIDE
Was Despondent on Account OF BE
ing Out of Employment-Ends
Life About II O'Clock This
Morning.

This morning about eleven o'clock,
Charles Edward Wright committed
suicide at his home by drinking two
ounces of carbolic acid. Mr.. Wright
had been in the employ of a cut
glass concern before the labor
troubles threw him out of work and
it is generally supposed that hav-
ing been out of work for so long a
time he became respondent.
There was no one at home at the
time. Mrs. David Fisher saw him
come home about eleven o'clock and
it is supposed that he went to his
room, drank the carbolic acid, came
down stairs and near the bottom he
fell bruising his forehead. Mrs.
David Fisher, who lives next door,
soon after hearing the fall,
called F. Kroll, thinking Mr.. Wright
had a fit. When Mr.. Kroll arrived
the man was lying in the hall. Mr..
Kroll says that he did not suspect
suicide and picked the man up and
laid him on couch and went after
DR. McConvill
When the doctor arrived Wright
was dead and noticing the odor of
carbolic acid he examined the man
and found it to be suicide by drink
ing the deadly acid. On going up to
the mans room he found a two
ounce bottle labeled carbolic acid
which was empty and beside it on a
table was a glass with but a few
drops of the acid remaining in it.
The mans mouth and lips were
burned and scorched where the fiery
liquid had touched them. Dr.. Nc
Convill at once notified Dr. Peter
son, the county coroner, and he en-
panelled a jury composed of DR.. Nc
Convill, R. O'Connell, John Billiard,
F. Kroll, VIM. Hagerty and Harry
Deck. After a consultation and in
view of the evidence the jury re-
turned a verdict of death by carbolic
acid administered by his own hand
with suicidal intent. 80 F~s'-ss'- =
Mrs. Wright was at a neighbors at
the time and was called soon after
the finding of the body. Mr.. Wright
is survived by his wife, two sons, one
of which is employed in the Irving

WATCH CHESTNUT TREES FOR
BLIGHT

Watch your chestnut trees for the
blight. The trees are just coming
into leaf. If the leaves remain
small, sickly looking and gradually
assume a yellowish tinge, 1t is good
evidence that the disease has ap-
peared. Later in the spring, dead
branches with withered leaves
clinging to them are positive evi-
dence of its appearance.
Among the numerous other evil
dences of the blight might be noted
cankers in diseased branches, small
reddish blisters, many suckers or
water sprouts, and the usual orange
colored pustules, fruiting spores, ETC.
Where such conditions appear, the
commission, or its representatives
should be notified without delay.
The continued rapid spread of the
chestnut blight which has entailed
extraordinary losses TO timber own
ers, attention being called to this in
the last issue OF The Citizen, aggre-
eating millions OF dollars, can only
be controlled II new points of in
fection are promptly located and the
diseased trees removed and the bark
destroyed by fire.

CAN'T GIVE BOND; GOES TO
JAIL
John Ryan, Charged With Mistreat-
ing 11-Year-Old Son, Pleads
Guilty-S30O Bond Required.

John Ryan, of Canaan township,
who has been lodged in the county
jail here since Wednesday noon, and
who was brought here by constable
Leroy Singuet, of Waymart, was
given hearing before Justice Robert
A. Smith on Thursday morning.
Ryan pleaded guilty to the charges
set forth in the warrant which was
sworn out by Mrs. Ryan a few days
ago. He was sent back to Jail in
default of $500 good behavior bond
imposed upon him by the justice.
Along with the fine goes Ryan's
agreement to keep sober, keep the
peace and good behavior for a period
of not less than ten years.
Ryan was arrested on a warrant
issued by his wife the first of the
week on the charge of abusing his
family, getting his eleven year old
boy drunk, and disorderly conduct.
The story is told that Ryan was in
Honesdale on Friday and was drink
ing and had with him his sixteen year
old boy. He was also in town on
Saturday and was under the influence
of liquor On Sunday he went to
Waymart and this time he had with
him his eleven year old son, and
home from that place he procured
some whiskey and gave some to the
boy. He was under the influence
himself and during the ride home he
is charged with throwing the boy
out of the wagon and mistreating him
so that on reaching his home in
Canaan township the boy remained
unconscious for about eight hours.
DR.. Bang, of Waymart, was called
to attend the child, and Father
Burke, of Honesdale was also called
by Mrs. Ryan. Ryan denied all
knowledge of the occurrence, saying
that he was under the influence of
liquor and did not know what he
did. He also denied having enter
ed hotel for the purpose of pro-
curing liquor on Sunday or while
in state of intoxication.
Milton Salmon acted as council for
Mrs. Ryan. Ryan called for c. A.
McCarty to make arrangement for
bonds and it is supposed that the
bond of $500 will be taken care of
after Ryan has learned his lesson
once and for all time. If bail is not
furnished the case will go to court.
This case brought out one import
ant fact and that is that there are
hotels in Wayne county that are vio-
lating their liquor licenses. They
are selling to minors, and intoxicated
persons and it is presumed that Sun
day selling is being practiced. A
thorough investigation of this case
should be given to find out if these
violations are being done and then
it will be a case for the district at
torney.

Earl Rockwell and Neville Holgate

Sterling.
The proposed foot bridge over the
Lackawaxen river at the head OF

definite action was taken in the mat
ter. The bridge is ready to be ad-
vertised for bids, the view having
been approved by the court.
The Wayne county Jail will also
be repaired. The work will be
awarded after bids have been ad-
yertised. The months bills were
ordered paid.
