ONE old LICENSE FALLS BY
WAYSIDE
APPLICATION OF OTTO DOL
METSCH FOR HOTEL LICENSE
IN SALEM REFUSED.

Two Applications Refused, The
Woodside, of Dyberry, and One in
Lehigh-License Granted for
Warehouse in BrOwntown.
The decisions in all the license
cases were handed down in open
court Saturday afternoon. Concern
ing those which were held up last
week, the licenses were granted, but
in every case the Court stated that
next year an affidavit must be fur
nished with the application. The
decisions in the case of Horace
Hoyle for a license in Dyberry town.
ship, against which two separate pc
titions were presented along with
remonstrances, the license was not
granted, the Court stating that a
licensed house was not necessary at
this point. This was one of two new
applications for licenses presented.
The other was made by John Gala
han and w. e. Callahan of Goulds-
boro, Lehigh township. This one
was also refused on the ground that
it was not necessary.
The only application for license
for an old house, refused at this term
of license court, was that presented
by Otto Dolmetsch. The license was
refused on the ground that evidence
was submitted, showing that liquor
had been sold to minors and on Sun
day. A very forceful opposition
against the granting of this license
for Salem, presented itself at the
hearing last week when the Salem
w. c. T. u. attended in body. The
remonstrance was conducted by
Rev. Russell and they produced a
number of witnesses who stated that
they had secured beer and porter at
Dolmetsch's place on Sunday. Sew
eral young men, under the age OF
twenty-one also testified that they
had obtained beer and porter there.
Upon refusing the license the court
said that, inasmuch as Dolmetsch
had the reputation of keeping good
hotel, where excellent accommoda-
tions and good food could be had,
if application for license was made
next year, it would not be refused.
The action of the court in not
granting any new licenses in the
county, can surely be commended in
the highest terms. Wayne county
now has something like eighty Ii
censed places not including the bot
tiers, brewers and wholesale places.
This makes an average of one IL
censed place to every 356 persons.
The Fell Brewing company was
granted a warehouse license. The
warehouse is to be located in Brown
town and the license covers only the
sale of not less than one dozen pints
of beer, ale and porter to dealers.

TWO DAMAGE SUItS STARTED
IN COURT
MRS. DEITZER STARTS SUIT
AGAINST HAWLEY COAL COM
PANY FOR LOSS OF son.

John Shannon Brings Action Against
f.. A. Havens Co. for Injuries
Received-Both Allege Negligence
and Claim Damages of $4,000.
Two damage suits have been start
ed in the Wayne county court for
Mary Ditzer, of Hawley, has start
Searle & Salmon, against Thomas
F. Farrell, NJ R. Hellibut, j. d.
Stone and William G. Moulton, CO.
partners, doing business under the
name of The Hawley Coal Company,
to recover $4,000 damages for the
death of her son, Peter Deitzer, who
was killed in June of last year, while
performing his duties in the employ
of The Hawley Coal Company.
1T will be remembered that Peter
Deitzer was engaged in running the
"dinkey engine" which was used to
operate the large steam shovel. The
shovel was being used at the works
of the coal company about a mile
from Hawley in Palmyra township.
About noon on June goth last, the
cable broke and the big shovel top
pied over into the ditch, along the
side of the track. The steam from
the big boilers rushed out and be-
fore Deitzer could be gotten out he
was burned so badly that death re-
suited.
Mrs. Deitzer, the mother of Peter
Deitzer, through her attorneys,
claims that the coal company was
negligent in not maintaining a rea-
sonably safe place for him to work.
They also maintain that the cable
was old and weak and that the track
was improperly guarded to support
the steam shovel.
A similar suit was started last
week by John w. Shannon through
his attorneys, Searle & Salmon,
against the Frederick A. Havens Co.,
of Philadelphia, who are at present
engaged in constructing the new
Guerney Electric Elevator Works at
the foot of Main street. Frederick
A. Havens and John c. Emgable are
named as defendants.
Shannon claims $4,000 damages,
for injuries received when brick
fell on his head while in the employ
of that company on January Ia. lie
alleges that he was working as
laborer, near a wall being laid oy
masons, who were handling bricks.
A brick fell on him from height of
about 20 feet incapacitating him for
a length of time. 1t is claimed that
the construction company were negll-
! gent in not maintaining reasonably
safe place for him to work. The de-
| PENDANTS in both these actions have
fifteen days in which to answer.

to determine who will be the regular
right fielder for the Philadelphia
Athletics. The choice lays between
Eddie Murphy of White Mills and
Pete Daley of California. Connie
says that either man will strengthen
his team.
Reports from Marlin, Texas, are
not very favorable to the World s

season at a salary exceeding what
the majority of major league get, af-
ter having proven their ability.

MURRAY LOSES LEG.

James Murray, of this place,
whose presence of mind prevented
a wreck at Lake Lodore last Satur-
day, had his right leg amputated at
Emergency hospital, Carbondale, on
Thursday.
Murray's leg was badly squeezed
while performing the heroic act, and
amputation was found necessary. 1t
was thought at first that the leg
could be saved and just the toes am
putated, but gangrene set in and it
was necessary to cut off the member.

Evening.
A large barn belonging to Clar-
ence D. Fortnam, proprietor of Far
view Stock Farm near Tyler Hill,
was totally destroyed by fire Satur-
day evening at about ten o'clock.
The origin of the fire is unknown
and when the blaze was first discov-
cred by Floyd Rolstern, a neighbor,
it was in the northeast corner of the
hay loft. Mr.. Fortnam sent gener-
al alarm and many of the neighbors
came to aid in fighting the fire. With
the help of this volunteer fire COM
pany the flames were kept from
spreading to the surrounding build
ings. The flames had such a good
start that it was not long in burning
to the ground. All the contents of
the barn were burned with the ex-
ception of team of work horses and
one buggy. The barn was one of the
best structures in that neighborhood
and it's dimensions were about 40 by
AZ feet. Mr.. Fortnam carried $500
insurance in the Farmers Insurance
Company of Wayne county but the
actual loss sustained will be con-
siderably more than that amount.
1t is a well known fact that trouble
never comes single handed, for not
over a week ago, Mr.. Fortnam lost
valuable bull valued at about $500.
