THE REPUBLICAN-J0URNAL, JUNE 5, 1916. , PAGE FIVE STEAMERS IN PRESCOTTON INITIAL RUN R. & O. Fleet Begins Its Sea- son Auspiciously—No Pass- ports Needed. The Richelieu & Ontario Navigation company's season began yesterday, with the appearance of the steamers Toronto and' Rapids Prince at Pres- cott, Out., on their initial trips of the season. The former brought down 100 passengers on her run from To- ronto and the latter had about half that number from Montreal. Trans- fers were effected at Prescott and the vessels departed on scheduled time for their respective destinations. They will run to Prescott on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays until June 19th, when the Kingston and Rapids King wil go on the route. Prom that date until July 1st there will be a daily except Monday service and after July 1st a daily service. The steamer Rap- ids King, which was damaged by fire at Sorel several months ago, has been rebuilt during the winter and will come out practically a new boat. Offi- cials of the line anticipate a much bet- ter season than was experienced last year. Americans will be allowed to enter the country without passports, in accordance with official government notice recently given. The steamer Toronto, which is one of the most popular of the larger pas- senger liners, is commanded this year by Capt. Geralds, and the Rapids Prince continues in charge of Capt. Stephenson. Agent George S. Meagher of the ex- cursion steamer Thousand Islander states that this popular vessel's sea- son will begin June 25th. Her sched- ule will be substantially the same as last year, running up the river from Ogdensburg on Sundays, Mondays and Wednesdays. The Islander will bring Friday excursionists from Kingston and intermediate points to Ogdensburg as usual during the season. CAR HITS MAN, WHO IS SLIGHTLY HURT JOSEPH MONTANIO MEETS WITH AN ACCIDENT. Joseph Montanio was knocked dawn by H. C. Sweet's E-M-F. touring car in River street yesterday afternoon. Mr. Sweet took him into his car and drove to the office of Dr. J. W. Benton on- State street. The physician, after making an examination of the man, said that he had escaped with slight injuries. While Sweet was on his ,way to v the doctor's ofcce his machine . ran against a curbing and one of the tires was torn off. Joseph Tovette's car hit the curb near J. G. Westbrook's residence at the corner of Ford and Morris streets yesterday and one of the wheels was slightly damaged. The car skidded slightly after rounding the corner from Ford street. Edward Premo, who was driving an automobile yesterday afternoon, had the misfortune to come in contact with two young boys by the name of Marlowe, who were on a bicycle and a collision followed. The Marlowe boys were thrown from their machine, but did not suffer serious injuries while their bicycle was badly damag- ed. The accident occurred at the cor- ner of Patterson and Ford streets and no blame is said to attach to Mr. Premo as he did not see the boys until he turned from Patterson street into Ford and then he did not have time to stop his machine. Luckily he was driving slowly and the boys es- caped with slight bruises. Joseph Tovette met with an auto- mobile accident yesterday forenoon while on his way to church. He had reached the corner of Ford and Mor- ris street when his car .skidded and ran into the curb breaking an axle of his car. No other damage resulted. 'OGDENSBURG IS TO BE REPRESENTED AT S. S. INVENTION Sixty-first Annual Convention at the State Capital June 13-15. IMPROVEMENTS INSTALLED AT HOTEL NORMAN System of Refrigeration Now Part of Equipment of the Establishment. Within the past ten days there has been installed in the Hotel Norman by its proprietor, Joseph H. Norman, one of the New Brunswick, N. J., modern and up-to-date refrigerating plants. It is now in full operation, the bar and kitchen served by the plant. The in- stallation work has been under the su- pervision of George Feaster, who was sent here by the Brunswick Refriger- ating company. With the completion of the work, the Norman Hotel can boast of one of the finest refrigerating plants of any hotel in this seotion, of the state. Mr. Norman is alive to ev- ery improvement that will tend ito the betterment of his well-known and pop- ular hostelry. The plant'is constructed- on what is known as the ammonia system, giving steady cold air through its numerous pipes connecting with the bar, kitchen and meat box. This current is- obtain- ed by the expansion of ammonia, that is, the ammonia is in a liquid state un- til it passes through the expansion valve. This valve has a • very small opening.\ The ammonia not being able to pass through in v a'liquid form-does' so in a gaseous form. After the gas has been created, which is very cold, it gathers all the warm air on the ex- terior of the pipe, causing the pipe to become frosted. After the expanded ammonia has clone its work it is drawn back to the compressor where it is compressed from a cold to a hot gas. From the compressor it is dis- charged to the oil intercepter after which it passes on to the condenser where it is condensed back into liquid form and is now ready to do its work all over again. The system is known as a direct ex- pansion system. The condenser is a pipe within a pipe, the ammonia pass.- ing through one pipe and water rush- ing through another. The plant is op- erated by means of a three horse pow- er electric motor. With theinstallation of the plant the Hotel Norman takes its place among the best equipped hostelries in North- ern New York. DUES TAKEN AT CATHEDRAL FOR CHURCH, SCHOOL People Make a Generous Re- sponse—New Marriage Reg- ' ulations Announced. Somewhat Hard to Digest. On Monday morning little Jennie observed the kitchen assistant putting the clothes on to boil preparatory to washing them. Running upstairs she exclaimed: \Oh mamma, we're going to have boiled clothes for dinner!\ THE KIND WITH THE MALTESE CROSS ON THE SOLES. YOU SHOULD TRY A sr* PAIR.

Auxiliary Bishop J. H. Conroy, rector of St. Mary's, spoke at the S a.m. mass and appealed to the congregation, particularly those having children, to do their share toward sup- porting church and school. He ex- plained that, the most of the money -to be raised was needed to maintain the school and said that if it were not for the school it would, not be necessary ,to.-makejthe appeal-at'this iime. The bishop and. the priests, accompanied, by assistants, made the rounds and the names of those subscribing were taken clown, together with their ad- dresses and the amounts subscribed, a list of which will be' published later. The amount pledged was not stated but it will probably be in the,neighbor- hood of'last year's, which \was ahout .R5.00.- - - • • - -,.. = .- , '•-•' Bishop Conroy announced new rules in regard to marriages of Catholics. He said the church now requires per- sons presenting themselves to be married to bring their baptismal cer- tificates, without which they cannot be married. He said that if prospec- tive bridal couples made all other ar- rangements but this they would be under the necessity of postponing the ceremony until the rule was obeyed. The bishop explained, that heretofore trouble had arisen when the question of baptism was raised, as the marriage ceremony was void in case either of the parties had not been baptized. The bishop appealed to the congre- gation to co-operate in this matter. In the case of mixed marriages, the bishop said the non-Catholic party wil be required to receive instructions as to Catholic teachings before the ceremony, is performed. POLICE STOP SUNDAY BASE BAIL PLAYING CHASE BOYS AWAY FROM BEL- MONT PARK. Belmont Park in the Fourth ward has for some time past been the con- gregating place for young men and boys on Sundays who were partial to the national game. Recently com- plaint was made to Chief Power against the practice being continued and yesterday afternoon officers Sulli- van and Harper appeared on the scene and put a ban upon further Sunday base ball in the city carried on in violation of a city ordinance. No arrests were made, but a warning was given not to continue the game on Sundays in the future under the threat that arrests would follow if the' warn- ing was not heeded. It may be possible that something may be done and the boys allowed to enjoy their innocent pastime. . a • — • —— Medical Dilemma. \What should one do,\ asks the young doctor, \when a patient comes in and diagnoses his own case ex- actly?\ \In such a situation,\ explains the experienced physician, \you niust use your best judgment of human nature. If the patient- is one kind of man he will appreciate your agreeing with his diagnosis as showing that he knows as much as you do; on the other hand, he may go about and say that you don't know any more than he does.\—Chica- go News. YACHT CLUB IS PREPARING TO INCREASE ROLL Well Equipped Organization Possesses Numerous Ad- vantages. The Oswegatchie Yacht club is pre- paring to make a strong bid for a largely increased membership this sea- son, and those interested in the suc- cess of the organization are confident that, once the advantages are known, there will be an influx of applications. There are few if any yacht clubs on the river, certainly none in the vici- nity of Ogdensburjj; which possess such manifold attractions and conven- iences of the O. Y. C, with its 250 feet of river frontage, deep and well shel- tered 'basin and an abundaiice of dock- age facilities, 'not tb 'speak of its com- modious clubhouse, tennis courts and other assets. During the past spring the members Have inaugurated many improvements and more are in pros- pect'when the* finances permit. Those guiding the destinies of the organiza- tion are conservative in their expen- ditures and while they would like to see some-ambitious plans put into op- eration • they believe it is better to wait a while and steer clear of debt. So far cement, walks have been laid pn both sides of the grounds and two new docks have been constructed. The latter are strongly together and are covered over with heavy pine, making durable piers which will last for years. One of these docks rests upon the foundation of the old St. Germain boat livery and contains a commodious slip. The accommoda- tions for power boats are of the best, the yacht houses being large and equipped with every facility. In addition to the aquatic advantag- es which are available, it is the hope of the members ultimately to provide a swimming pier opposite the yacht club. This could be done by anchor- ing out a scow on the bar, where there is a beautiful sandy beach covered by water of varying depths. The lawn tennis courts are regard- ed as the best in this section and dur- ing the season there will be numerous tournaments. A large amount of work has been done on the courts since spring began and the members are eager to try them out. As heretofore announced the first tournament has been arranged and as soon as the weather is favorable it will be run off, there having been two postponements already because of wet grounds. An- other attractive side of the club is its social activities, which promise to be very popular this season. There will be frequent dances and other affairs in the spacious club house to claim the attention of those inclined. It is the intention to lay out a professional cro- quet court adjoining the tennis grounds, and a clock golf course is to be another innovation. The members of the club believe that the people of Ogdensburg should be quick to appreciate the advantage of having such an organization as this and prompt to encourage and support it by becoming members and enjoying its privileges. There are at present 127 regular and three associate mem- bers and it is hoped to increase this to 200 regular and 50 associate mem- bers. The regular membership fee is $6 with an initiation charge of $4, which entitles members and their families to all the privileges. The fee for associate members is $5, with no initiation charge, ladies and minors being eligible to admission. r -~ —• Wanted tb Be Ready. A story is told of an old Irish gen- tleman who was the only undertaker in an upper Michigan city years ago. He- was what might be called a fore- handed man. One day he met on the street the young son of a citizen who was reported to be at death's door. \How is yer .fa-ather this mornin'?\ asked the undertaker. \He's sinking fast,\ said the boy. \Is that so? Poor boy! By the way, how tall is yer fa-ather?\ READ THE REPUBLICAN-JOURNAL. Preparations are well under way lo- cally for the attendance of a delega- tion from Ogdensburg at the sixty-first New York State Sunday School con- vention, which takes place in Albany Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, June 13th, 14th and 15th. Last year at the convention in Auburn .there were 2,500 enrolled representing Sun- day schools all over the state, and from the interest already evinced it is expected there will be about 3,'500 in attendance at this year's convention, with a large representation from Og- densburg. The general committee having the arrangements for the convention in charge in Albany is making elaborate preparations for the convenience of delegates in reaching the Capitol City, as well as during the days of the con- vention while in Albany. Special rates have been arranged for in advance on various railroads and boat lines. The rates will be open to all attending the convention, and there will be special fares from all places on lines leading to Albany. As an evidence of the tremendous interest being displayed in this con- vention, it has been announced that there will be a special chartered boat trip up the Hudson river from New York city for delegates and visitors attending from the metropolis and points along the river. Sunday schools in many places are planning to en- gage special cars at special rates to send the delegates from these cities to the big convention. There is a large executive commit- tee which has the general arrange- ments in charge, and the convention city this year has the added advantage of being the permanent headquarters of the New York State Sunday School association, so it is announced that the preparations this year will probably be the most complete of any since the conventions began in 1856. PATHFINDERS HERE TO SPY OUT ROADS OTTAWANS CONFER WITH OFFI- CIALS IN REGARD TO TOUR. A. A. Dion, president of the Ottawa Valley Motor Car association; Ross Schram of the executive board in charge of the tour; W. D. Edihburn, who will act as referee of the con- test, and E. C. Buchanan, representing the Ottawa Free Press, arrived here Saturday night in the pathfinding car from Ottawa. The party completed preparations for the tour all along the route mark- ed out the road and arranged details in connection with the visit here next Saturday of 500 motorists from Can- ada. Yesterday morning the pathfinders went to Alexandria Bay to inspect the three-mile strip of highway now being built at Redwood and to complete ar- rangements for the reception of the autoists at the Bay. They returned here last night and leave for Ottawa today. While here the party conferred with Mayor Frank and J. B. Fell, chairman of the sub-committee which is in charge of local arrangements. SCHOONER SAILS INTO THE HARBOR PRESENTED RARE AND BEAUTI- FUL MARINE PICTURE. The Quickstep, the first full rigged schooner to enter this port with every stitch of canvas spread, anchored in Wheathouse Bay in the lower harbor late Saturday afternoon. The rare,and beautiful sight attracted attention all along the water front and lovers of marine pictures were lost in admira- tion. With every, stitch of canvas set, the schooner sailed down the river, came about as gracefully as a great gull aiid let go her anchor near the Rutland grain elevator. Little infor- mation was available last night as to the destination of the craft or her car- go. She brought down a load of wheat and it was stated that she was. direct- ed to come tb Ogdensburg and await orders. It is said to be fully twenty years since the last schooner sailed into port. The windjammer was an object of interest in the harbor yester- day and scores of power boats which were out for a spin encircled her. The steamer Simon Langell, which has been taking on a cargo of pyrites in the upper harbor the past few days, cleared last night for the upper lakes. Another Schooner Passes Today. The schooner \Keewatin formerly of Belleville, Ont., will pass down the river today on her way to salt water. She has been sold to New Orleans parties and will play in the mahogany trade between New Orleans and Brit- ish Honduras. \~- No Kick Coming. The men have no kick coming.

C.L er's Sons, SNELL WILL SUPPORT ROOT ON 1ST BALLOT BUT AFTER THAT HE WON'T SAY. POLICE COURf CASES. A Washington dispatch to the Syr- acuse Herald says: \Representative Homer P. Snyder of Little Falls is in Chicago as a delegate from the 33d district. Mr. Snyder will cast a Root vote on the first ballot, but what he will do after that only Mr. Snyder knows—and he won't tell. Represen- tative Bertrand H. Snell of Potsdam, delegat from the 31st district of New York, is in Chicago, and though Mr. Snell will answer Root to the initial call, he's with Snyder thereafter^in the interrogation mark class. Most of the Central New'Yorkers look with some favor td be friendly to the Col- onel, but this one is not a delegate. He hails from Oswego, and represents the 32-d Congressional district. His name is Luther W. Mott. He is. at Chicago with one Thadeaus C. Sweet of Phoe- nix and James Moore of Oneida, dele- gates from his district; but although Mr. Mott is not a delegate he is not idle in Chicago, and possibly he has talked over that $9,000 private wire.\ Virtue and Riches. \I cannot call riches,\ says Bacon, \better than the baggage of Virtue. The Roman word is better, 'impedi- menta,' for as the baggage is to an army so are riches to virtue. It can- not be spared nor left behind, but it hindereth the march, yea, and the care of it sometimes loscsth or disturbeth tlie victory.\ Some time ago, Dixon Dishaw bur- • glarized the Ogdensburg Wholesale Mercantile Company's store.- He was ^arrested, convicted and sentenced to ' hree years in Dannemora prison. Seh- ence was suspended and he was placed on parole in the custody of Probation officer Nichols. A week ago Saturday •night, it is alleged, he burglarized the Johnson & Murray establishment. He was landed in the toils again on this latter charge Saturday afternoon and placed in the city jail. He will be taken to the Canton Castile by officer . Nichols today and later will probably have to serve, his prison sentence. Deputy Sheriff McCoy of Heuvel'ton brought to the city jail Saturday night a man by the name of Bruner who was charged with the theft of $30 from a woman who had driven into that vilh iage from the country. When she left her carriage she thoughtlessly forgot her pocket book and after she had gone Bruner, it is claimed, purloined the money, He was chased into the town of Macomb where he was cap- tured and arrested on a charge of ; petit larceny. He \will be taken to Heuvelton this morning for trial. - . m . -- Civilization's Corner Stone, The corner stone of civilization is man's dependence for protection on the state which he has reared for his.' own safety and support.—Agnes Rep- plief in the Atlantic Monthly. -^— - —V • —~ . ,; Victimized.
