Susquehanna, August 27. For the
past three year a eubmarine monster,
of undefined species, has occupied But
ler lake, a body of water in Jackson
township, five miles from Susquehan
na, to the (treat unrest of fishermen
and farmer. Last week it came up
out of a deep morass fringing the
lake, and clipped off the leg of an aged
horse, and the next day It suddenly
snatched a large string of fish be
longing to an angler and suddenly dis
appeared under a log raft. The vicin
ity farmer occasionally loses a sheep
or pig, and the monster Is invariably
credited with the theft. At night the
bellowing and lashing of the strange
creature can be heard half a mile. It
is said to be about ten feet long and
os large around as a flour barrel. It
has a head not unlike a seal, and Is
equipped with two paws and a whale
like tall. An effort will be made to
capture the creature alive. Shots fired
at It seem to have no effect, except to
accelerate Its movements.
RAILROAD DASHES.

$40,000 In town on Tuesday.
Delaware and Hudson Superintendent

hunna wreckers were called.
The Carbondale conductors will run
an excursion to Oooperstown on Satur
day next. It will leave Lanesboro at
about 7 o'clock a. in.
The Delaware and Hudson cars are
models of neatness and comfort. Its
trains run on schedule time, and the
trainmen are invariably polite and at
tentive. The traveling public always
has a good word for the old, reliable,
conservative Delaware and Hudson.
The Erie has a very satisfactory ex
cursion business this season.
THROUGH THE COUNTY.

county Jail.
The Susquehanna county grangers

convention will be held in Montrose

ticket.
The Free Methodist camp meting at
Ararat, closed on Wednesday. The at
tendance at the meeting was large. '
Montrose has been sawed up Into
three wards, In order to secure six
delegates on the county convention. It
Is rumored that Forest City will now

anglers. This season he has caught
over 40,000 and sold them for $1 per
hundred. These bugs are black fel
lows, and are Seen skirmishing upon
the surface of the streams. Bass and
other game fish prefer them to gram
pus or minnows.
THE TICKET MATERIALIZING.
The new Jparty In Wayne county Is
fast materializing. The alert and
wide-awake Sarah Ulrlch Kelley, re

Of the state of Pennsylvania.
For vice president Brer Benjamin
Haines, ;

The platform is how being prepared.
There will be, a straddle on the cur
rency question. There will be some

people are now upon the new Wayne
