IT WAS HIS BLUFFING DAY.
Two Good Shots by the Cowboy Brought
the Ferryman Around,
From the Detroit Free Press.
There were five of us who got to the
crossing ot Kaw river at the same time,
and we found the old scow which did
duty as a ferry boat on the far side,
vdth the ferryman dangling' his bare
feet In the water and evidently taking
things easy.
"Say, you!" called a cowboy from our
llUe.
"Wall, what Is It?"
"We want to cross over."
"Yes, guess ye do."
"Come on with the scow."
"I don't have to till I get ready!"
"When will you get ready?"
"Can't tell."
It was evident that he had bumped
up against an eccentric character, and
as no one was In a hurry, we waited
patiently for him to take his time. Af
ter nrteen or twenty minutes he called:
"Mebbe ye hain't heard the news!"
."What is It?" asked the cowboy who
had been delegated to do the talking
on our side.
"The price fur glttln' over used to be
a quarter but It has rig."
"What Is It now?"
"Half a dollar."

HITS AND MISSES.
The people of Great Bend are sitting
n sackcloth and ashes, ana refuse to
be comforted. . The government now
Hpells Great Bend as one word, "Great
bend." The Chicago Tribune says: "A gold
mine has Just been discovered in Mis
souri. It becomes necessary, therefore,
for the Blandltes to rush frantically
out and discover sixteen silver mines."
One has been discovered over among
the Canaanltes, in Wayne county. Find
fifteen more.

cat dialect, and has concluded that the
resemblance to Chinese is strong. The
professor doubtless enjoys the cat con

areas.
LOCALETTES..

shire, In December last, arrived here

The bill to restore the old style mile

Scranton. Shortly after the doctor's
honeymoon the doctor's son married a
sister oi tne doctor s wire. Mow a
brother of the doctor's wife Is about to

cupied by the defense, representing the
Hillside Coal and Iron company, htle
Cornelius Smith, A. H. McCollum and
P. Wedemon are gathered together
at the prosecutors' table In the inter

siderable delay a Jury was obtained and
the case proceeded. Briefly the case is
the result of the death of Walter Mc
Eroy, who was killed at the Forest City
breaker, Dec. 18, 1893.
THE GUILTY SENTENCED.
It Is Judge Searle's usual custom to
sentence prisoners on the Monday fol
lowing their trial, and In this term of
court he made no exception to the rule.
Charles and Llxsle Walker, who plead
ed guilty to larceny, were sentenced to
restore all property or the value there
of, to a fine of 85 and to a term of
one year In the Eastern penitentiary.
Peter Walsh, convicted of larceny,
was sentenced to pay a fine of $5 and
undergo a term of three months as
the guest of Sheriff Leonard in the
county Jail.
William Moran, who pleaded guilty to
larceny, was given the same sentence
as Walsh.
THE NEXT SHERIFF.
The next man who will occupy the
stone building banked against the hill
to the north of the court house and
whose beauty Is damned by a brick
facade utterly spoiling the effect of
the natural grey stone, will be William
Deuel, of Little Meadows. When Mr.
Deuel was nominated, the delegate who
had that happy duty, effectively re
marked that Mr. Deuel was capable ot
tilling the office; he certainly Is. Mas
sive is the future Krd high executioner,
and although a self-made man he neg
lected the exterior of his cranium, and
Is unable to part his hair In the mid

blue eyes twinkle In a jolly manner,
He has In the past been somewhat
of a politician, but only In a quiet
way as this is his first appearance In
the arena for a county office.
COUNTY HISTORY.
"In 1828,.' so writes an old paragraph-
er, "a family of very religious tend
ences moved into the eastern section of
Susquehanna couhty. Their name was
Kersey and they added much color to
the sparsely inhabited district. Two
sons of the family, however, quarreled
and did separate. One was named Noah
the other Joseph. ' To the section where
r.'oah moved he called Ararat and
where Joseph located he called Egypt."

medical fraternity. While con
tinually growing deeper and
larger the circle of diseased flesh

Bovinine, that greatest concen

of lean beef, is the most fitting
nourishment of all for speedy
results. .Then applied externally

THE BICYCLE INDUSTRY. Th
St. Louis Globe-Democrat says: "The
only bicycle patents now In force are
those covering speclaltiea Approxi
mately 1,000 'makes' of wheels are at
present produced In the United States.
Borne, a very few, of the great estab
lishments, where nearly 100,000 mounts
are placed on the market annually,
themselves manufacture nearly every
part which goes into the construction
of the machine. But the vast ma
jority of factories purchase nearly
every part from some special source,
machining the drop forglngs, and fit
ting and finishing the 'partly prepared
material. Ten thousand dollars, a ma
chine dealer Informed the writer, would
equip such a factory, while a bicycle
dealer stated thai $3,000 would suffice
for a good start. One master mechanic
Is needed. With the steady and tre
mendous demand for wheels, and the
prleee at which they continue to be
listed, the Incentive to a launch In the
business of blcycle-maklng Is showing
its results In the marvelous Increase
in the capacity of those that are es
tablished. About 1,000,000 wheels will
be placed upon the market and prob
ably sold this spring and summer, rep
resenting an outlay by wheelmen of
over 150,000,000. How soon the revolu
tion in prices will come Is a matter of
much speculation among riders. A
representative of one factory stated to
the writer that it would not be inside
of two years. The cost to the manufac
turer Is believed by many, on grounds
satisfactory to themselves, to be be
tween $10 and $20. Those handsome
catalogues and a vigorous policy In
advertisement add quite an Increment
and allowance must be made for the
guarantee. The wholesale dealer the
houses representing the factory In dif
ferent sections of the country comes
In for a good share, while the retail
dealer makes only 25 to 35 per cent.
Then, perhaps, a majority of wheels
are bought on time. Bo great an Inroad
has been made on the Jewelry busi
ness by the popular expenditure for
wheels that an appreciable proportion
of the Jewelers have placed bicycles
on sale beside their watches, and every
hardware man must, of course, handle
them. Another effect of the bicycle's
advent is the appearance of rubber
tires on carriages. The most Import
ant, of course, is the effective Impulse
given to tne gooa roaa movement As
a common pleas Judge remarked to the
writer: "The time has come when, in
the construction of public roads and
streets, first thought must be given to
the need of the light vehicles which J
are soon to represent the predominant
interest. ' -
The Nickel Plate Road controls the
dining stations on its line and they re
ceive unstiniea praise.
