MONDAY Fire at the
Wangum Cut Glass Works.

At noon on Monday there was con-
siderable excitement at the Wangum
Cut Glass establishment on upper
River street. In the acid room an
oil stove that is used for melting
parafine which covers those parts
of glass that are not to be etched,
was left unattended while the opera
tives went to lunch. The usual oc-
currence occurred on schedule time.
That stove began to act up and "cut
capers" peculiar to such contrap-
tions. The first thing the squad of
young men who were eating lunch in
another part of the building knew
there was a smell of smoke in the
air and an alarm of fire was quickly
sounded. The flames were speedily
subdued. The amount of damage
was slight, consisting mainly in
burning the paper off the studding
about the room to which it had been
nailed. But for the presence of the
1unchers there would be a different
story to tell to-day.

Senators are hearing from home are
making the position of those who are
opposed to the resolution some what
uncomfortable. Popular opinion
here is decidedly against the opposi-
tion Senators. Over and over again
it is pointed out that the resolution
merely provides for submitting the
question to the people. Time after
time attention is called to the fact
that such a step has the endorse
ment of all the political parties. And
now and then it is automatically in
timated to Senators suspected of
wanting to vote against the resolu
tion that they are taking rather a
serious view of their own Importance
in the general scheme of things
governmental in this commonwealth
when these facts are taken into con-
sideration.
Newspapers Make 'Bad" Members
OF the House Feel Sorry.
The outspoken way in which
newspapers throughout the State
scored members of the House who
voted against the resolution for their
presumption in trying to prevent the
people from voting on the suffrage is
sue is another thing that is having a
pronounced effect upon the Senators.
Many newspapers of all shades of po-
litical opinion are strongly urging
the essential justice of permitting
the voters to decide the question for
themselves. In his letter to the
Democratic members of the upper
branch, State Chairman Guthrie
said he has received letters from all
parts of the State criticising most un-
favorably the action of the Demo-
cratic Representatives who, in the
| face of a specific platform declara-
tion, "voted against a referendum to
the people on the question of women
suffrage" Republican members
have been as freely and as generally
criticized.

Tragedy on Church Street
Results in Lady's Death.

Miss Mary Watterson conducts a
store on Church street near the Erie
crossing. She resides in the same
building. With her also resided her
sister, Miss Isabel Watterson. On
Monday evening, February II, Miss
Mary went from the kitchen in
the rear of the building to the store
to attend to the wants of some GUS
toners. She was gone about twenty
minutes. When she returned to the
kitchen she found the room filled
with smoke and fire burning on the
floor and running up the door that
opens into an outer storage depart
ment. She hastily began throwing
water on the fire, and soon eXtin-
guished the flames. The smoke was
so thick she could not see objects,
and she stepped on some thing that
she thought was carpeting, or roll
of clothing. At the same moment
she threw some water on the wall
and it splashed back towards her,
drenching the floor, from whence
came the voice of her sister, Isabel,
who was lying there at her feet. The
poor girl was frightfully burned
about her head, right side, down her
body, and on her arms and hands.
Physicians were hastily summoned
and every effort was made to give
the unfortunate girl relief and save
her life, but on Tuesday night of this
week she died. The theory of the
occurrence is that Miss Isabel enter
ed the room and went to the sink.
While there she was seized with
fainting spell to which she has been
subject ever since she suffered a
broken leg by falling on the icy
street several years ago. In falling
she overturned an oil heater that was
burning with flame turned low, and
thus her clothing caught fire. There
was no explosion, and nobody heard
the fall or knew anything about the
occurrence until the unfortunate vic
TINS sister entered the smoke-filled
room. Miss Isabel Watterson would
have been "A years of age in April.
The funeral will be held on Friday
from st. Mary's R. G. church, near
Ledgedale.

1.-THE SLEEPING BEAUTY"
Original Sonnet.


The Earth lies hidden meath the ice
and snow,-
A blanket deep, and snug from Win
ter skies.
Some think her beauty dead and
frozen lies;
She is asleep, and waits while cold
winds blow;
Just as the Sleeping Beauty, whom
we know
Awaits until her Prince her bond un-
ties.
But soon the blithe bird sings, and
warm wind sighs,
And tells the tale of Spring-derid-
ing VICE.
Who riding up in glory bends to|
Earth,
And with a warm and perfumed|
breeze, he'll kiss
Her lblushing cheek. The winds
that gently blew,
Rejoice in all her splendor. Joy and
Mirth
Attend the awakened Earth, arrayed
by Bliss
In wedding gown of fiow'rs and gem
of dew!

Little Items Picked Up
On the Streets of HaWIey.

A. D. Sheldon, of Scranton, was a
caller in Hawley on Wednesday. He
put in some time renewing old ac-
quaintances about the town. At one
time Sheldon was a runner on the
gravity railroad, his train being
known as one of the "No. 49,"
trains. He left Old Wayne when the
gravity was abandoned, and took up
his residence in the Electric City.
Mr.. Sheldon was at various times
valued correspondent of the various
papers of Wayne county, including

1t Was Only An Auto
From Over Scranton Way.
1T came into town with as grand
flourish as the wonderful cavalcade
of an April circus. at" was a big
auto from over Scranton way, and
it was loaded with merchandise. Now
our dealers over this way don't like
the looks of such stunts as that, and
instead of feeling circussy and good
natured about it, to tell the simple
truth, they didn't, but they didn't
let on that they wished the blamed
thing had staid home. None of us
ever do, you know Well, that auto
didn't have so good a time, after all.
After unloading its stock of mer-
chandise it started for home, and
then its troubles began. 1t followed
up the old gravity loaded track un-
til it struck the Lakeville road. 1t
got stuck so frequently in the newly
drifted snow that the "stuck" condi-
ton more than doubled the "go"
condition. Finally, at about 2
o'clock in the morning the chains on
the wheels broke and the machine
became hopelessly stalled right in
front of the home of the writer of
these lines. There were three young
men in charge of the car. One of
them crawled under some burlaps
and spent the night, and the other
two footed it to Honesdale after re-
lief. 1t was high noon on the sec
ond day after leaving Scranton be-
fore the car left Hoadleys for Homes
dale, and by this time it has prob
ably reached home. In the mean
time Hawley people smile and are
quoting some sort of an old saying
about virtue bringing it's own re-
ward" Yes, they are smiling and
looking wise over the incursion into
our towns business rights.
