ONLY WOMAN SENATOR IN
UNITED STATES COMING HERE.
Mrs. Helen Ring Robinson, of the
Colorado Senate, to Talk in
HonesdaIe, June 81,


Mrs Helen Ring Robinson, of Col
orado, known as the only woman
Senator in the United States, is
scheduled to speak in Honesdale on
Tuesday evening, June "a. Col
lier's Weekly of June Z, contained
the following concerning Senator
Robinson:
To study what she calls state
Housekeeping" and incidentally to
make few speeches in the interests
of woman suffrage, Mrs. Helen Ring
Robinson, member of the Colorado
Senate, is touring the East. The
Eastern press critics are enthusias-
tic over the vigor and breeziness of
her talks, and the editors back
home" proudly characterize her in
some such vein as this, from a pa
per in Denver:
"Our own and only woman Sena-
tor-and, by the way, one of the best
that ever happened down the pike
of State politics, man or woman"
In the session just closed Cher
first), Mrs. Robinson gave her closest
attention to the enactment of laws
for the improvement of conditions
among women and children. Colo
radios recently enacted minimum
wage law for working women was in
troduced by the woman Senator and
guided by her over a more or less
rocky path. An Eastern interviewer
asked the Senator if it were true
that Colorado is about to take the
suffrage away from women voters
She laughed and answered: "All l
can say is that if it ever were at
temnted Denver would mako 1itt1e
old London look like Sleepy Hollow"

STOUQERT TELLS JUDGE
HE'S READY TO GO BACK.
Indicted on Three Counts; Pleaded
Guilty to All--Court Asks What
He Has Done During Eleven
Years Since First Offense.


August Stoquert, alias "Frenchy,"
entered a plea of Guilty" before
Judge Searle Monday afternoon. He
was not sentenced but will remain
in the county Jail until after the
June term of court when sentence
will be pronounced. Stoquert pied
guilty to three counts: Breaking and
entering and taking eggs from E. E.
Kinsman; breaking Jail twice and
breaking and entering the Pennsyl-
vania Coal company's office at Haw-
ley.
Frenchy has quite record and
the whole history was brought out
or as much as is possible-before
Judge Searle Monday afternoon.
He was first convicted in Wayne
county eleven years ago of breaking
into Bigert's store. He served four
years in the Eastern Penitentiary.
He was out 19 months when the
next time he was convicted of TAX
ing brass from the Erie and got two
years for that. Frenchy's first fall
was when he broke into the express
office at White Mills. He got three
months in the county jail. He went
West after he got out of the pen the
second time and said ne mad worked
on the B. e o. as breakman on a
switch engine in the yards at Lans-
ford, Pa. He said he had worked
there until he came back here this
last time. He came by way of Cherry
Ridge and Palmyra and walked. He
was arrested in Hawley in January
for some trouble and escaped Jail
He started for the west again and
got as far as Buffalo, looking for
work, and then came back to Wayne
county where he was caught after a
chase near Hoadleys by Sheriff Kim
BILE and County Detective Spencer
His next trip to Philadelphia will
probably be more extended. When
asked by the judge if he would like
to remain here for while, Frenchy
said 'The quicker l go the better
as long as I have to CO." He is for.
ty years of age.

The G. WHITE AXE co.
SELLS BUSINESS

The business of the G. White Axe
Company, founded years ago when
Honesdale was young, was on Thurs
day, June 12, sold to Mr.. L. J. Eddy
of Wilkes-Barre, who takes immedi-
ate possession. The lateness of the
receipt of the announcement of this
important transfer, precludes more
extended notice in these columns,
but Honesdale, it is needless to say
here, will warmly welcome Mr.. Eddy
to the business and hospitality of the
Maple City.
