This is Surely an Echo
From the Big Flood.

In October, 1908, ten years ago,
occurred what goes down in local his
tory as the greatest flood in the men,
ory of 1.-The oldest inhabitant." 9th
er floods may have caused more
damage on account of their coming
when ice choked the streams; but
this flood, like "a bolt from the
blue" came when there was no ice
in the land outside the ice barons
storage houses. 1t began to rain, and
just kept at it until there was a
greater volume of water flowing
through the water courses than had
ever been known before. In Haw-
ley the damage was great and was
caused mainly by the fact that wood
en- trusses had been placed under the
Erie railroad bridge that spans the
Middle Creek. These caught the
drifting rubbish and formed a dam
the waters of which overflowed the
banks and poured into the low parts
of the town.
The Hawley Glass company, the
Joseph Atkinson Estate, the Conklin
rink, the G. Lehman hotel, j. S.
O'Connor, w. A. Gregg, F. w.
Schalm and others suffered loss, the
amount reaching into the thousands.
The Erie railroad bed was under
mined badly between the Middle
Creek and Degnan's crossing. All
business was suspended on Saturday,
the 10th of October, people generally
viewing the scene of devastation.
This remarkable flood is brought
to mind at this time on account of
the Erie Railroad Company which is
busily engaged in placing pipes un-
der the railroad near Degnan's cross
ing to prevent a possible recurrence
of the destruction of ten years ago.
These pipes will carry off the water
from the low lands on which are To-
Gated the Box and Lumber company's
plant. To aid in the work a huge
pile driver is being used.

the muscles, tends to graceful bod
lily action, helps the nervous system
and increases the brains power of
calculation. Just as long as the
game is kept on a clean and manly
basis, just that long will the public
stand by the boys; but when trick
cry, hoodlumism, foul language and
ungentlemanly conduct are even
tolerated, then the public will let the
game and it's players severely alone.
If the young men of Hawley, Homes
dale and White Mills cannot meet
on the field without showing traits
unworthy of young men of honor,
then it were far better to drop the
game entirely. Why tolerate that
destructive spirit of wanting your
favorite to win by any means, fair
or foul? Why not be ready to cheer
a brilliant play when it is made by
the other fellows?" Such conduct
will fill the grandstand with specta-
tors and draw more dollars from the
public than can be drawn by intense
desire to win the game fairly if pos
sible, unfairly if necessary.
Now, about that Milford incident.
Last Saturday autos carried the
Hawley team, and 2 autos carried
Hawley fans to the shire town of
little Pike" where the Hawley
team crossed bats with the Milford
boys. Milford is the home town of
Steele, the pitcher of the st. Louis
Nationals, and they have the same
love for him there that White Mills
has for Murphy and Honesdale has
for sherry Last week Steele's
team was in New York city and he
was visiting home nursing an injur-
ed arm. The famous pitcher con-
sented to pitch an exhibition game
for the Milford's. Notwithstanding
the advantage the Milford boys had
in having Steele do their pitching,
Hawley won, the score being 6 to 3.
Allen Gilpin,. of the Hawley team,
made a home run. Some idea of the
speed of Steele's pitching may be
appreciated when it is considered
that balls he threw rebounded from
the catcher's glove back to him.
The Hawley boys enjoyed the trip
and the experience very much. The
return trip was made by one of the
cars in one hour and forty minutes.
The other cars fingered for time at
Fairview lake.

Death on Monday Evening
OF Mrs. George PeltOn.

At 6:30 o'clock on Monday even
ing, with the going down of the
sun occurred the death of Mrs. Geo.
Pelton, who had been a patient suf-
ferer for long time. Mrs. Pelton
was daughter of the late Robert
c. Glossenger, and Hemlock Hollow,

of her girlhood. At the time of her
death she was a trifle more than SO
years of age. She is survived by one
daughter, Mrs. Earl Uban, of Haw-
ley. Her husband, George Pelton,
died about one year ago. The fun
eral was held on Wednesday after
noon at 1880 o'clock, Rev. c. o. Full
Ter officiating. Interment was made
in Walnut Grove cemetery.

gone into effect that extra work on

men from the Wyoming division in
stead of the Delaware division. That

Will Have to Start
All Over Again.

There was much disappointment
in Hawley last Sunday among base
ball enthusiasts. A large number
came from Honesdale, and players
and fans marched over to the battle
ground full of anticipation of a hot
game. Then came the storm, the
postponement and the disappoint-
ment.
The series will open in Honesdale
on Saturday, and the return game
will be played in Hawley on Sunday
next. The Hawley boys are very en-
thusiastic and there will be some
thing doing every minute of both
games.
