ELkS HOME
Is Going Up With a Rush Since Lay
ing of Cornerstone

10 oOIHS Up WIN NuSH oiHCC Lay
ing of Cornerstone
On last Friday morning the substantial
slab of gray granite designed as corner
stone for the fine s25. 600 home of Rocky
Ford Lodge No. ll4z. B, P. o. E., was
laid in place by the lodge officers. with a
markedly brief and simple ceremony,
because Of the restrictions of a public
celebration at this time by the board Of
health,
Since the cornerstone was laid the
building have literally been climbing up
until it begins to look as though Con-
tractor Farris would make good his pro-
mise to have the beautiful edifioe eomplet-
ed by the last of this year. if the fine
weather but holds out.
So fast is the work proceeding that it
has become necessary to seal over the
cornerstone at once, so this morning box
containing list of lodge members. with
brief history of the organization. statis-
tioal documents, a copy Of this issue of
The Enterprise. ETC., will be placed with
in the cavity chiseled in the granite, and
the stone will then be sealed, to remain
undisturbed, it is expected, until the
eleventh hour has struck for every mem
ber OF Rocky Ford's antlered herd.

Had Thumb Broken

Master Bonnie Vaudeville, the young
son of W. B. Vaudeville, is carrying an
arm in splints as the result of getting too
familiar with cider press last Satur-
day. The young lad was spending the
day at the Cover home east of town and
had undertaken to help the boys make
cider" when he had his thumb caught be-
tween the cogs of the apple grinder,
The bone of the thumb was so badly
splintered and broken that but little hope
is entertained Of saving the injured mem
ber.

SPECIAL OFFICER FIRES
AFTER FLEEING MEXICAN
Finally Runs Him Down and He
and Partner Landed In jail
Pair Pleads Guilty

f-dH flGduS ouuty
The peace and quiet of North
Main street WAS rudely disturbed
about eight o'clock on Wednesday
morning by the sound of pistol
shots about the corner of Main and
Swink avenue, and to the crowd
that speedily congregated came
the exciting news that an officer
was responsible for the shooting
and he had captured his man,
Further investigation brought
the information that pair of
shoplifters had been plying their
nefarious trade and had been cap
tured through the vigilence> of the
Hardey Dry Goods Co.
Shortly after Hardey's had
opened for business on the morn
ing in question a couple of young
Mexicans had entered the store
and while one of them engaged
the attention of o. G. Dukate, the
salesman, the other had gifted"
several silk skirts from a table.
Mr.. Dukate's customer seemed
very uneasy, which aroused sus-
picion that the old trick was being
worked, which was verified by
glance at the silk table as the
pair left the store, and calling
upon Henry Hardey to keep the
Mexicans in sight, Mr.. Dukate
hastened to the telephone and
very soon had Marshal Tinsley on
the way to the store.
The Mexicans-followed by Mr..
Hardey, whom they evidently did
not suspect of doing the gumshoe
act-started west on Elm avenue
to Ninth street and then went
north couple of blocks, finally
circling around to North Main
street and back to the Japanese
pool room, almost opposite the
scene of their shoplifting work.
They had scarcely entered the
door leading to the rooming house
before Marshal Tinsley and Spec
ial Officer Corcoran were on their
path. Stationing the officer and
Messrs. Dukate and Hardey to
watch the exits the marshal start
ed to search the rooming house
and about the second room he en-
tered uncovered his quarry, one of
whom darted from the room and
out the rear where he was inter-
cepted and brought to halt after
the officer had fired several shots
in the air.
The two hombres were speedily
in irons and Oh the way to the
calaboose, where they were safely
landed without any further troub-
lie, A search of their room re-
vealed the stolen skirts, together
with a lot of other loot, such rs
silks, clothing, ETC., which was
identiyed by j. b. Byars and the
Toggery Shop.
On Wednesday afternoon the
Mexicans, who gave the names of
Jesus Navarro and Gadalope CAL
de ron, were given hearing be-
fore Judge Fenlason and pleaded
guilty to the theft of goods to the
value of Sl2. 80 from Hardey's and
over S25 each. from the other
stores. AS the first constituted
petty larceny they were fined S25
and 30 days in Jail. On the other
two offeuces they were committed
to the district court for trial and
the same afternoon were given
into the keeping of the county
taller at La Junta.

Nay Make Chances


According 20 members of the cOun-
Gil these figures are only estimates
and the final budget as adopted by
the council will probably show a
number Of important changes. on
motion OF Councilman Fink the mat
ter was referred TO the committee Of
ways and means.
Like the report Of the budget, the
proposed ordinance levying the taxes
was referred 10 the committee on ways
and means. This ordinance fixes the
amount OF money TO be assessed on
each 500 of taxable property that
will be used for the various funds of
the city.
The money appropriated for the
use OF the board Of public safety will
be for the payment of wages to the
members of the police and fire depart
ments and for any new apparatus that
may be needed by the department.
That considerable improvements
will be made by the city during 1914
Is shown by the amount set aside for
the use of the board of public work.
This money is used for building
streets. sidewalks. sewers and other
improvements that are decided upon
by this board.
Turn IN Their Bills.
Mem bers of the election canvassing
board turned in their bills for their
services and some discussion arose
over the matter City Atty. Romig
was Of the opinion that an ordinance
should be passed appropriating the
amount OF the bills.
City Controller Joyce was on hand
and claimed that the money should
be paid from the amount set aside for
the expenses of the city election.
Sometime ago $4,000 was appropri-
ated for the election and there is still
a large amount left.
The men on the board ask the fol-
lowing amounts for their services
Miller Guy. S25; Samuel Z. Petten-
gill. S25; Frank Bilinski. $25: Harry
Engel. 10 hours at so cents per hour.
$50 Clint Rogers 10 hours at 80 cents
per hour, So. The matter was left
TO the city attorney 20 investigate.
A ordinance approving the contract
made between the board of public
works and the Welsbach Street Light
ing Co. was up for first and second
reading. A contract Yves made be
tween the members Of the board of
public works and the lighting com
pany last April for the installing of
80 street lamps in River Park. The
ordinance was referred TO the commit
tee Of the whole
Want Strip OF Land.
Members of the Bowman Cemetery
association requested the council TO
grant them the strip of land lying
north of the rorth line Of Randolph
ST In return for this land the asso-
citation agrees TO give land for the
opening of Randolph st. as far as
Miami ST. This communication was
referred TO the committee of the
whole.
The ordinance appropriating S425.6f
20 the parl, board was passed.
According 20 the report of the city
controller there were S249. 602.46 on
hand in the city treasury at the end
of July. The first of that month saw
S2S9.217.4S i'm the treasury. while the
collections during the month swelled
this amount TO S347.4O9.36. The total
amount paid out during the month
was S97. S06.90.

Strong testimony was produced
before both Senate and House Com
mittees against inserting a class ex-
emption in the Child Labor Bill. 1t
was shown that boys were employed
in this industry at night work, and
the bill, as originally drawn, speci-
fically forbade this. The Glass Manu-
facturers, however, won their point
with the committee and an amend
ment prevailed eXempting the glass
industry from the operation of the
child labor law.
An important provision of the
Woman's Labor bill which aimed to
assure childhood or small portion
of it's birthright, has also been tam
pered with by the committee. The
bill provided that no mother should
be allowed to return to the factory
for period of four weeks after
childbirth. This clause has been
cut out by the Caterers to Special
Privilege" and nothing has been
left in the law to protect a mother
from being driven back to the fac
tory the day after childbirth if she
is physically able to get there.

DIES OF OLD AGE
THOUGH ONLY SIX.
Child, White Haired and Wrinkled,
Victim of an Unusual Disease.

Cleveland, O.-Rosie Gryelck is
dead of "old age" though her sew
enth birthday was not until next
August.
The little girls hair was as gray
as that of an aged woman and many
other characteristic changes, which
appear with the passing of middle
life, accompanied the progress of the
rare malady which caused her
death Her steps were faltering, and
her hands were withered, while
wrinkles lined her face.
Her parents and her younger sis
ters had become accustomed to these
changes. So had some of the neigh
bors.
Coroner Byrne visited the home
after the child's death and reiterated
the statement that she died of "old
age"
Raymund's disease was given as
the cause of death. This unusual
affection, as medical textbooks show,
is named after DR.. Maurice Ray
mund, who first described it in 1862.
1t has it's seat in the heart and re-
suits in diminished flow of blood to
the lungs.

KILLED BY AMENDMENT.

The Walnut Child Labor bill, as
passed by the House, provided for an
eight hour day and a 4S-hour week
for working children. The bill as
amended this week by the Senate
committee established a 10-hour day
and 54-hour week. An "elastic" pro-
vision bears down still harder upon
childhood by providing "a different
apportionment of hours of labor may
be made for the sole purpose of
making a shorter days work for one
day of the week, but in no case shall
the hours of labor exceed 81 in a
week, except that in such establish
ments where the employment is by
seasons, the number of such hour in

LET THE GOOD WORK GO ON.

The Honesdale improvement AS
sociation wish to thank all who took
so active an interest in Cleanup
Week" and hope that they will con-
tinue the good work.
There still remains much to be
done. Every man, woman and child
is needed, to keep our town clean
and sanitary. If the children would
kindly refrain from throwing papers
in the street the effect would be
noticeable We especially appeal to
the women to help us keep the river
banks in cleaner and more sanitary
condition; if they must throw tin
cans and kitchen refuse into the riv-
er, to throw it far out into the deep
water where it will not afford a
breeding place for flies and mos
uuitoes. "Swat the fly" is good but
to remove the cause of evil is better.
No one should expectorate on the
walks, nor allow others to do so. If
absolutely necessary, use the gutter.
Children bouncing balls and mar
bles, come in contact with the sput-
um and it is conveyed 70 their hands
and clothing; or may be carried to
our homes on the soles of the shoes.
In time some particles get in the air
and are breathed into the lungs,
causing serious trouble.
We do not need to enforce laws, or
levy fines for such offenses as "A
word to the wise is sufficient"

COURT NOTES

B. f. Blake, constable of Bethany
made his return to court on Mon
day afternoon and in the return he
set forth that he had killed two mad
dogs. Mr.. Blake, we believe, is the
first constable to include this in his
quarterly return.
In the appointment of a guardian
for Daniel j. Hogan, feeble minded
person, July IA, 1913, at o'clock is
set for time of hearing. Ten days
notice to be given to Mary Hogan

Mary DeitZer VS.. Thomas Farrell
ct al. On motion of Kimble & Han
Ian, attorneys for defendant, the
Court granted rule to show cause
why writ issued in the action should
not be abated and action discon-
tinued. Made returnable second
Monday of May, with notice to Searle
& Salmon, attorneys for plaintiff.
The reason for the granting of the
rule is that the Hawley Coal company
is not a partnership or joint stock
company but a corporation under
the laws of Pennsylvania, and de-
PENDANTS are not co-partners.

EX-PRESIDENT'S DOUBLE
WILL LECTURE ON RUM.
Retired Pittsburgh Police Sergeant to
Talk on Drink Evil.

What TO do with the doubles of our
eX-presidents has been determined in
the case of Thomas J. Morley, retired
police sergeant Of Pittsburgh, who
looks so much like William H. Taft
that when Mr.. Taft saw him the for
mer president fairly gasped in aston
ishment.
Tom will descant on the ravageS of
the demon rum. He will lecture to
railroad men under the auspices of the
Pittsburgh and Lake Erie railroad in
connection with the nation wide safe
ty first campaign.
IL wrestled with drunks more than
twenty years in the big police station
in Pittsburgh" said Morley, "and now
1 am going to wrestle with the evil it
self" Morley is built for wrestling
He is physically and mentally fitted
for it.
"If ever man had experience with
drink, either as its devotee or an OBJ
server, 1 think l am that man. have
attended funerals of my former pals
and associates who died from the eff
fects of strong drink. About fifteen
years ago l was almost down as re-
suit Of it, but made up my mind that
devotion to drink and neglect'of family
were mistakes and beneath a real man,
so cut them OUT
Morley is more than fifty years old,
possesses a good stage appearance, has
deep voice and in addition to a good
memory has natural knack of put
ting across what he has to say.
General Manager Yohe Of the Pitts
burgh and Lake Erie heard in a round
about way Of Morley's ambition and
realized the power for good man like
Morley would be to a corporation.
AS a result, through L. H. Turner,
superintendent of motive power Of the
road, Tom Morley will make his debut
on the temperance platform before
several hundred of the roads employ
ees in Groveton, o., in the near future.
