You know you nickel in Chicago
When friend you wish to call by telephone,
You drop it in a slot just for the purpose
And LOSE 1T if your partys not at home.
Five pennies or dime you can't deposit,
quarter or half will not go in
A million in the bank is of no value
And swearing, cussng damnngs just a SIM
OH what pickle if you haven't got nickel,
The house may be on fire, doctor you would call.
A nickel is essential it's the only credential;
If you haven't any nickel you can't the phone at all
The little girls in Autophone Exchanges
Have frames of steel and coppercolored hair.
They're welded to their chosen occupation,
And to men who want prompt service they are fair.
They never ask to go upon vacations
They neither sleep listen the line
They're on the job regardless of their ratons
For the Auto Operator does not dine.

That Automatic Telephone reposing in my hall
Like capable physician, am always in position
To keep my patience when by telephone call
If you the Automatic in Chicago,
When by phone certain party you would reach,
You simply call his number on the dial,
So easy that child you'd have to teach
No tick, tick only when his bell is ringing,
No buzz buzz, only when his phone is not in
Wrong numbers do not happen often,
And it's up to YOU to make the right excuse.
Oh! what pleasure and everlasting treasure

FRANCHISE
AT Special Meeting Tuesday Evening
Ordinance Passed Giving Rights
to Street Railway Company.

At special meeting of the Haw-
ley borough council Tuesday night

fifty years.
Practically the same franchise is
now before the borough council of
Honesdale and has passed several
readings. The final reading will take
place probably at the next regular
meeting which will be held Thurs
day evening, March 6. AS nearly
every citizen of Honesdale is in ia
vor of having a trolley line between
here and Hawley, it is hoped that
the franchise will receive favorable
action Thursday night.

COMPLIMENTARY REMARKS
ABOUT F.. p. WOODWARD

l congratulate the Honesdale Citi-
zen on having secured the services
of Frank P. Woodward, who will in
future publish his paper, the Wayne
Countean, in Honesdale, and devote
much of his time to contributions to
the columns of The Citizen. Frank
P. Woodward is one of the best
known of Northeastern Pennsylvania
journalists. He was a contemporary
of Ned Buntline, Ed. Mott and other
we'll known lights of literature. The
magic pen of Frank Woodward will
transform the most commonplace in
cident into an interesting subject.
The Citizen is fortunate in getting
him to devote portion of his time
to the columns of that paper.-Trib
une-Republican.

FIRE POLICE SWORN IN BY
BURGESS
Fire Chief Oday Appoints Thirteen
Men Taken from Fire Companies
To Rope OFF Fires and Arrest
TreSpaSSers Inside the Lines,

Seven members of Protection En-
gine Company No. 3 and six mem
bers of Hose Company No. 1 have
been appointed and sworn in as fire
police with power to make arrests
on persons found inside the fire lines
in the future.
The men sworn in from Protection
Engine Company No. are: William
Ball, G. l.. Dunning, w. w. Kimble,
Milton Salmon, H. A. Tingley, Gus
tave Bartholemus and w. B. Road
knight. From Hose Company No. 1
are A. B. Abrams, Eugene Babbitt,
Louis Wagner, Frank Vetter, w. T.
McConvill and Thomas A. Brown
These men were appointed Tuesday
and some of them were sworn in by
Burgess McCarty and the others will
be sworn in within a few days.
This action was taken at the insti-
done for any other purpose than to
facilitate the work of the firemen at
fires.
Heretofore at every fire the crowd
of spectators hinder to a great extent
the work of the firemen. They
stand in the way so that fire hose
OdHHoI DC luONCu W dhJd6C anu
hinder in various ways. The people
are urged not to take offense by this
new arrangement as it will be an ad-
vanced step toward better protection
to property holders in case of fire.
The duties of these fire marshals
will be to rope off sufficient space for
the firemen to work in and keep all
spectators outside the lines. 1t will
also be their duty to arrest any per-
son, not a fireman, or anyone not
having particular business, who are
found within the lines thus drawn.
They intend to treat all alike in this
matter and no person will be exempt
from arrest if found violating this
rule. Spectators can greatly facili-
tate the work of the borough's fire
defenders by keeping outside the
fire lines in the event of fires in the
future.
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1913-02-28

due to him as well as to this society
to express officially our appreciation
of the valued services rendered by
him.
In all these years he has been with
us, our society has been greatly
blessed in the upbuilding of our
church, and creating a feeling of
Christian fellowship and good will
among other denominations of our
town.
We recognize in him a great
preacher, faithful pastor, a spotless
character, and personal friend, ready
at all times to do all in his power
to uplift mankind, therefore:
Resolved, that we most respect
fully ask the Bishop and Cabinet at
the annual conference to be held at
Wilkes-Barre, Pa, in April next, to
return Rev. Will H. Hitler to us as
pastor for the next conference year,
and we earnestly request Rev. Mr..
Murdoch, district superintendent, to
present to the conference our desire,
and use all honorable means to fur
ther the same.

GRAND JURY MEETS MONDAY.
Few Petty Cases to be Considered
County to be Congratulated
Merwin Makes Confession,

The grand jury for the March term
of court will meet at the court house
Monday afternoon at two o'clock
After being sworn they will proceed
to the jury room where District At
torney M. e. Simons will place before
them the usual business of the ses-
sion. There are up to the present
time only two or three common
wealth cases to go before the grand
jury. The case of S. F. Merwin,
charged with adultery will not come
up before the grand jury as Merwin
has pleaded guilty and has signed
his confession. He will receive his
sentence sometime during the follow
ing week of court. This will tighten
the labors of the grand jury consid-
erably and only leaves several petty
cases to be considered. Wayne coun-
ty can be congratulated on the lack
of criminal cases.

THAW WON'T TALK OF BRIBE.
Visit of SuIzer's Committee to Mattea-
wan Insane Asylum Fruitless.

Fishkill Landing, n, Y, Feb. 27.-
Harry X. Thaw sprung surprise on
the Sulzer commission of inquiry that
had journeyed from Albany to the Mat
teawan Hospital For the Criminal In
sane to get Thaw's version of the al
legged attempt to bribe DR.. John r.
Russell, superintendent Of the institu-
ton, to set Thaw free. 1t had been
expected that Thaw would have a
great deal to say, but he stubbornly
refused to answer questions, and the
commission went back to Albany no
wiser than 1t came
Thaw based his refusal on the ground
that he had been advised not to an
swer unless the inquiry was conducted
''in the same room in which other wit
nesses appeared, so that there shall be
no distinction apparent" He refused
to say who had given him this advice.
The three commissioners N.
Carlisle, John A. Delaney and H. Cor
don Lynn-arrived at the hospital, ac-
companied by John P. Norton, counsel
for the commission, and by John G.
NiSbO"Sii, oCNlCtulJ " SOiOhCi OOoCpn
f. Scott, superintendent of state pris-
ons, and number of stenographers.
DR.. Russell met the commissioners at
Fishkill Landing with his auto.
No time was lost after the commits
sioners arrived at the hospital. The
commissioners. counsel, stenographers
and newspaper men gathered about a
long table set near the stage in the
chapel, where Thaw was already seat
ed. He was dressed in a black sack
suit, with close fitting collar and dark
colored four-in-hand tie. In his hand
he held a golf cap, and with his clear
skin and well set up figure he looked
more like young man just come in
from a brisk walk over the Fishkill
hills than a prisoner in an asylum for
the criminally insane.
AS Thaw faced the commission he
was very quiet, but his manner sug-
gested repressed excitement. DR.. Rus.
sell, concerning whose part in the al
legged bribery plot Thaw was expected
to give testimony, sat only few feet
away from the witness, but during the
brief session Thaw did not glance In
| his direction.

HILLARD BRUCE HEARD FROM

Former Editor Hilliard Bruce of
The Citizen is back at his home in
Norwich, Conn, after trip to Mex
leo, Florida and Michigan. He had
quite time of it, he says, when he
was in the near-tropics. To begin
with, he was suspected, in Pensa-
cola, Fla, where he worked on a
daily paper in 1909 and 1910, of
stealing diamonds worth $3.50 from
Mamie Whitney, who the Yankee
newspaperman had never seen. He
proved an alibi easily, for Mamie
lost her stones in October, when
Bruce was in Connecticut. Then he
was knocked down on the Plaza in
Pensacola by a bulldog chasing a rat
in the open, and his wrist doubled
under him as he hit the sidewalk and
was broken. Arm in a sling, he went
out to Campeche Bay, Mexican side
of the gulf, after red snappers, and
was in at the death when the good
schooner Alcena, owned by former
Mayor Tom Welles, whose guest he
was, tied up at Palafox wharf in
Pensacola with a $1,000 load of
fish. Mr.. Bruce will winter at home.
His mother, whom probably fifty
Honesdale people met when she visit
ed him here in 1910, is poorly at
present. .- y

GENTS
SEVERELY IEss aED WHEN
TEAM ls A AWAY
Mr.. and Mrs. JAS. Gregory Receive
Severe Wounds Near Beachlake
Wednesday, Mr.. Gregory
Rendered Unconscious.

While Mr.. and Mrs. James Greg
ory were driving in a lumber wagon
near VanGorder's place, below
Beachlake, Wednesday morning
about ten o'clock their team of colts
became frightened and ran away,
throwing both occupants into the
road. Mrs. Gregory received a Sc
we're cut in the head, while Mr.. Greg
ory was rendered unconscious. 1t
is supposed that the team, driven by
Mr.. Gregory was frightened when a
top buggy occupied by Mr.. Buch-
aman, travelling salesman, passed
them at that point. The horses only
ran few rods when the tongue ran
into tree trunk and stopped them.
1t was at first thought that Mr..
Gregory had been killed in the acci-
dent but after being taken to the
home of Marshall Barnes he began
to show signs of life and DR.. Bar
cells, of Narrowsburg, was called.
Several stitches were necessary to
close the wounds received by both
Mr.. and Mrs. Gregory. Their escape
from more serious injury is miracu-
lous.

THROWN FROM HOUSE ROSTRUM
Lively Scenes In Congress When Mem
ber Starts Rough House.

Washington, Feb. 21.-The house sit
ting as committee of the whole broke
up in near riot when Representative
Murray Of Massachusetts was literally
thrown from the speakers rostrum by
husky deputy sergeant at arms when
he attempted to demonstrate with Rep
resentative Alexander Of Missouri for
alleged unfairness.
Murray, struggling and fighting with
the sergeant at arms, was Immediately
surrounded by excited members Of the
house. who shouted in a mad turmoil.
Representative Alexander was pre-
siding in the chair as committee chair
man. AS soon as the tumult reached
the ears Of Speaker Clark, who was in
the smoking room, Just off the house
floor, he ran on the floor, jumped up on
the rostrum, pushed Alexander aside
and pounded for order, roaring out de-
mands that members take their seats.
The sergeant at arms grabbed the big
mace, emblem Of authority, from its
place and held 1t aloft. After a few
minutes pounding the house again took
on a semblance of order. and then
Murray, white and trembling, demand
ed permission to make statement.
He declared that Chairman Alexan-
der had been "most ungenerous" in
recognizing members. Representative
Alexander took exception to this state
ment and Speaker Clark sustained him.
Representative Mann Of Illinois de-
clared that Murray owed an apology to
the house for his conduct and because
of his enthusiasm. Mann insisted, how
ever, that the sergeant at arms had au-
thority only to use the mace and did
not have the right forcibly to remove
Murray from the speakers stand. Muir
ray insisted he believed he had acted
within his rights.
"But if l have done anything incon-
sistent with the dignity and the form
of the house, which l am most anx-
ious to maintain, most humbly apol-
ogize," he asserted, amid loud applause
from both Republicans and Democrats.

GEORGE HAYWARD
STILL MISSING
Brother Leroy Arrived From Dem
YER on Wednesday-What Has
Been Accomplished.

AfCOh EhNCOhhphloiCOs
Leroy Hayward, of Denver,
Colo, arrived in Honesdale on We'd
nesday. Mr.. Hayward is a brother
of George Hayward, who left Homes
dale for parts unknown on February
18th of this month. While in con-
versation with a representative OF
The Citizen upon his arrival in town,
Mr.. Hayward said he received let
ter from his brother, George, week
previous to receiving a letter from
his cousin, Howard Miller, telling of
the brothers disappearance. The
writer informed Leroy that every
effort possible would be made to To-
cate his seemingly lost brother The
writer, who is also an editor of The
Citizen, told this brother, who had
tears in his eyes, that he sent
Georges picture and a complete de-
scription of him to Harry Exkert,
superintendent of the State Reserva-
tion at Niagara Falls, after an item
had appeared in the New York Trib-
une, dated Feb. IA, from that place,
that young man had committed sui
eide upon Friday, the 18th, by jump
ing into the rapids. This, the writer
explained, was the only clue that
had developed. Leroy was informed
by the writer that telegram was
received the following day after the
picture and description was sent
which read as follows: "Mr. e. B.
Galloway, Honesdale, Pa. Does not
answer to description. (Sfgned)
Harry Exkert. State Reservation
Supt."
Mr.. Hayward was informed that
plans were under way to locate, if
possible, his brother.
