    SHOT BY ITALIANS
Two of the Pennsylvania Constabulary
Wounded, One Seriously.
Wilkes-Barre, Pa., Aug. 20.—One of
the most serious affrays in which the
local troop of state constabulary has
been interested occurred at Hughes-
town borough, a suburb of Pittston,
As a result of the affair one of the
troopers lies at the Pittston hespital
in a dangerous condition, while anoth-
er received a slight flesh wound, and
three Italians are more or less serious-
ly injured.
Within the confines of Hughestown
porough there is an Italian settlement.
All day Sunday the men at this settle
ment were drinking and carous
ing and creating such a disturbance
that the neighbors made a complaint
to the authorities. A call was seni
to the headquarters of the state con-
stabulary at Wyoming, and three of
the troopers—Privates Adelson, Butler
and George—were detailed to go to the
place. The Italians, who had evidently
been awaiting their coming, began
making an indiscriminate fire upon
them in the darkness and the three
troopers withdrew, not howeve until
George had been shot in the abdomen,
while Adelson also received a slight
wound.
Butler, the only uninjured man, got!
hold of a foreigner named Michael Po
loni and clubbed him into submission
Later word was sent to headquarters
and the entire troops, in charge ol
Sergeant Wilhelm, went to the scene
and arrested five Italians. Two of
these, Joe Durilla and Joe Doloro, wer¢
shot and taken to the hospital in 2
serious condition. They must have
been shot by some of their comrades
Durilla declaring he came out of his
house to find out what the cause olf
the trouble was when he was shot.

PLCT TO ASSASSINATE PALMA
Armed Revolution Breaks Out In the
Western Part of Cuba.
Havana, Aug. 20. — Half a dozen
highly prominent leaders of the Lib-
eral party have been taken into cus-
tody on the charge of conspiracy
against the government and plotting
to assassinate President Palma. .
The men arrested are General Car-
los Garcia Velez and his brother Faus-
to, Cuban consuls at Bremen; ex-Sen-
ator Montaelgudo, Colonel Manuel Ple-
dra, chief of police in the house of
representatives, and General Enrique
Loynase del Castillo, a former con-
gressman from Puerto Principe prov-
ince. These are charged with con-
spiracy.
The first death resulting from the
insurrection occurred Monday after-
noon. While Governor Nunez was au-
tomobiling to the westward on the
Guanajay road, he overtook a detach-
ment of 20 rural guards who were fol-
lowing the trail of the insurrectionary
leader Bandera. Governor Nunez
joined the party and with it went
some distance off the main road, when
suddenly one of Bandera's bands was
encountered. In a rapid exchange of
shots which ensued Lieutenant Gre-
gario Roque, the commander of the
rural guards, was killed. The band
escaped, dragging with them two of
their men who are believed to have
been mortally wounded.
Numberless rumors are afloat of
fighting in the western part of the
province of Havana, but the only facts
that have materialized are that Bande-
ras’ band, which has been increased to
70, while proceeding near the railroad
between Guanajay and San Antonio de
Los Banos, encountered eight rura!
guards, who immediately surrendered.
were disarmed and let go.
Letter to the Racket Store, Helletonte,
Pa.
Dear Sir : Now, may be, you can’t get
the goods ; if you can, your fortune is
made.
Cotton cloth—they call it muslin in
some parts—at ahout the usual price per
gard, but wider, twice as wide as some,
and better, wears hetter, keeps white and
whole a surprising time in all sorts of
wear.
You could sell that cloth for hundreds of
miles ; there'd be no limit.
A yard goes farther ;one hays less yards.
Wears longer ; one buys less often. Ital
ways looks righs till well worn ont. No
one customer buys 20 much of it, but think
of tte number of customers !
May be you can't get it in cloth ; but
yon can in paint: Devoe. Devoe is as if
it were wider ; a gallon goes further; yon
hny less gallons ; you pay for less gallons ;
son pay for painting less gallons—as if one
pard less for making a garment of that
wide cloth—aod it keeps its fresh look and
sheds water till you have forgotten how
old it is.
It isn’t trae in cloth, but it is in paint ;
the less you pay, the better it is; for the
goodness of paint is reckoned by gallons ;
less gallons, more govdness. Goodness in
paint is strength. The stronger a paint,
the less gallons it takes for a job and the
longer it wears.
Yours traly

Only a Mask.
Maoy are not being benefited by the
summer vacation as they shonld be. Now,
notwithstanding much outdoor life, they
are little if any stronger than they were.
The tao on their faces is darker and makes
them look healthier, but it is only a mask.
They are still nervous, easily tired, upset
by trifles, and they do not eat nor sleep
well. What they need is what tones the
nerves, perfects digestion, creates appetite,
and makes sleep refreshing, and that is
Hood’s Sarsaparilla. Pupils and teachers
generally will find the chief purpose of the
vacation hest subserved by this great
medicine which, as we know. ‘‘builds up
the whole system.”’
