LEBECK WHITNEY'S WEEKLY BUDGET OF NEWS Tale of Hidden Treasure Down In Franklin Township. MIKE FERNAN SLEEPS TEN YEARS A Few Knilrond l'nets.Noles Tor Sportsmen Only.-A Silver Orator la Thrown Out of the Tcniplf-Story ofu Turtle-Note of News in and About the County. Special Correspondence of The Tribune. Susquehanna, Oet. 6. From over In Franklin township, this county, there comes the oVr-tno-truo tale of a won derful find. There Is said to be In that roniantie section a certain ditch about eiRht rods Ions, dug In a eiK-zaff fash Ion by the untutored and unwashed In dians. This ditch was tilled up, some thing like a century nt?o, and the owner refuses to sell It on account of the sup posed treasure buried there. It Is said that a compass will not work when placed over the spot, so great is the counter attraction. The needle will tremble and radiate, but not do its ac customed work. The Owner will begin prospecting at once, and he believes "there is millions In It." The (Ircat Rend riaindenler, which Is quite apt to suKBest something apt, has an Idea that the trench may contain several millions of G3-cent silver dollars in crude form, nnd suggests that the I'o pocrals go digging to secure funds with which to carry on the "campaign of education." Moreover, a mineral spring lias also been discovered near the spot. It Is covered by a large, Hat stone, and hns a foreign odor, not unlike South Uihson apple-jack or other liquid with known curative qualities. A silver mine and an apple-Jack spring discov ered In old Susquehanna county in one week! "Hullygee," what a county! ASLEEP TEN YEARS. Michael Fernan, of Elmira, who has Susquehanna relatives, has been de clared Insane by a medical commission, and an order has been granted by the court of Chemung county committing him to the state asylum for the insane. In liltighamton. Until a year or so, Mr. Fernan has leen for a quarter of a century a resident of Factoryville, where he was watchman of the Delu wnre, Lackawanna and Western tunnel nnd a small farmer. For ten years he has been asleep and practically dead to the world. In all these years he has never spoken. His wife and several children have died since his attack, but he has never, by word or act, shown that he is conscious of the fact. His ap petite has been excellent. At differ ent times during hN strange and pro longed sleep specialists have examined him, but none of them have been able to assign a cause for the malady or to prescribe a cure. RAILROAD FACTS. General Tassenger Agent D. I. Rob erts, of the Erie, Is slowly recovering from an operation for appendicitis. A. M. Tucker, a prominent official of the Erie.is at the Dansville Sanitarium, suffering from nervous prostration. Kailway officials are discussing the respective rights of upper and lower berth owners In sleep"Vff cars. It Is claimed by some that the holder of a lower berth has a right to the seat facing toward the engine. The Erie employees In Susquehanna will organize an "Erie Railroad Em PROTECTION, PROSPERITY. SOUND MONEY, Grand Mass (Meeting Under the auspices ot the Central Republican' Club, -AT THE FROTHINGHAM, Thursday Evening, October 15, 1896. SPEAKERS Hon. Charles Emory Smith, of Phil adelphia, ex-Minister to Russia; Hon. James H. Hoyt, of Rleveland; Hon. D. D. Woodmansee, President of the Cepublican National League, and others. Bauer's Band will furnish the music. Seats free to all the people. The Club will escort the Speakers to the meeting. All the People Are Invited & CORIN. ployes Sound Money Club." There are several such organizations In the var ious shops along the line. The Trainmen have paid out $2,500.00;) for Insurance; the conductors $2,500,000; the Firemen $4,000,000; and the engin eers $6,000,000. Erie officials deny that the new scheme of ruunig locomotives contin ually from Jersey City to Susquehanna Is disastrous to the engines. The Urotherhood of Locomotive Fire men will hold the next biennial conven tion in Toronto, Canada. In liuffulo on Thursday evening more than 500 Erie railroad employes organised nn "Erie Railway Employes Sound Money Club." They have a dis tinctive button. More than 900 of the 1,000 employes on the Erie Buffalo Division have signed the membership of the "Erie Railroad Employes' Sound Monev Club" in Buffalo. Chief officials of the Delaware, Lack awanna and Western road deny the idiotic yarn that the company has given orders that the men must vote for McKinley or be discharged. FDR SPORTSMEN ONLY. Another American eagle, killed by nn unknown person, hns been found on the mountain nenr Windsor. At Hallstead, L. E. Tiffany shot a hawk American Aspen measuring six feet from tip to tin. A party of deer-slayers will leave here today for the wilds of Pike county, Pa. Ten Susquehanna and vicinity hunt ers are In great North Woods, In search of deer. At last accounts they had established a record for long dist ance walking. Pass are Idling beautifully In the riv er near Lansboro. A Susquehanna fisherman caught seventy-live nice ones, a few days since, with minnows for bait. A Windsor man caught an eight pound black bass, at that point, on Saturday. Some mammoth eight and ten-poun1 pike-perch were caught from thf river near here last fall, with lampreys for bait. There are plenty of lampreys along the Delaware river, but they are scarce hereabouts. THROWN OFT OF THE TEMPLE. A few evenings since a local orator from Oakland announced a "silver" speech for a little church over In Wind sor township, Hroome county. During the orator's pyrotechnlcal display u man stood up In the audience and asked a question. The orator said he was there to make a speech and not to answer questions. After a few more words the questioner walked to the platform, seized the orator, led him out of doors, and told him to follow a wagon track home. The meeting ad journed sine die. When next the ora tor Invades York state he will go as a "Ulesslng" In disguise. IN THE COUNTY. Little Thomson, on the Jefferson branch. Is moving for electric lights. Montrose, with Its court house and two rnilroads, still sticks to kerosene lamps and the moon. Some of the old resi dents carry tin lanterns and use the tallow dips In their homes. That bit of "the world do move" very slowly. In some portions of the county apples are celling at ten cents per bushel, and thousands of bushels will rot upon the ground. Burglars are burglaring In Hall Mead. The county teachers' Institute will be held In Montrose, beginning Oct. 19, and continuing through the week. The lecturers announced are: Hon. Samuel Pht'lp Leland. H. H. Emmett, Dr. A. A. Wlllets and Will Carleton. Hallstead's hook and ladder will re organize with twenty-five new mem ters. The farmers of Riverside, near Great Pend, are erecting a grange hall. Three Hallstead railroad men have recently lost their Uvea within a few months In the line of duty. The Republicans of Jackson held a Ms tally on Friday evening last. Capt. W. D. H. Alney. of Montrose, delivered an able, logical, eloquent address, and captured his audlenro from the start. He was applauded throughout. Regis ter and Recorder S. 8. Wright also tpoke briefly and to the point. The meeting was a very enthusiastic one. TALE OF A TURTLE. While a rang of Delaware, Lacka wanna and Western trackmen was at work near Summersvllle on Saturday they discovered a huge turtle, one of the largest ever seen in this section. It was thrown Into a hogshead of water, and the next day, the men found the inscription, "James Buchanan, 1848," carved upon the turtles shell. A far mer remembers having seen the same turtle, or one with the same Inscription, ten miles south of Scranton, In I860. The creature has therefore, journeyed about fifty miles In 46 years. A school master, who chanced to pass by, added this legend to the turtles shell: "Wil liam McKinley, ISM." The turtle will probably be sent to Canton on Friday next, on the Lackawanna county ex cursion from Scranton. FLOATSAM AND JETSAM. The cider mills are making merry music among the mountains, and the apple-jack crop will 1 out of Bight. Campaign documents are arriving at the Susquehanna postoftlce in 2,000 lots, and the long-suffering postmaster thinks swear words. A vicinity man offers to let a pereg rinating profusion of hypnotism buy him for six weeks. He evidently desires to escap the financial discussion. Tramps are returning from the Ot sego County hop fields, to the deep dis gust of railroad men and housekeep ers. Editor Mi-Clure. of the Philadelphia Times, explains that a "doubtful state," this year, is a state in which there Is a doubt whether the Republican major ity will be 200.000 or 1100.000. "Reptile family" Including. of course, gold bugs Is very questionable. Two wife-beaters have, of late, been waltzed before Susquehanna justices. In both Instances the wife has dropped around later on, withdrawn the com plaint nnd paid the costs of court. Wonderful is the height and depth and breadth of a woman's love and forgive ness! All the same a few Delaware whipping posts ought to be transplant ed in the soil of Pennsylvania and Susquehanna county. NEWS MATTERS. A Mrs. Keenan, has of late, It Is al leged, been ill-treating a little niece, whose mother Is dead. Action was yes terduy taken whereby Mrs. Keenan wns compelled to return the girl to the Catholic orphanage in Scranton. Susquehanna Republicans expect to have a big rally about October 14, with our Congressman, Hon. J. A. Coadlng, and Hon. George W. Ray, of Norwich, N. Y.. as speakers. The First National Rank's elegant new block Is gradually approaching completion. It will be one of the llnest Htrm lures in this section. The Susquehanna McKinley and Hobart club held au enthusiastic meet ing in Lnnsboro on Saturday evening. The Susquehanna County convention. Women's Christian Temperance Union, in session in Forest City last week, elected the following delegates to at tend the state convention, to be held In Pittsburg, beginning Friday next: Mrs. C. E. Whitney, Susquehanna; Mrs. Dr. Rlakeslee, Forest City; Mrs. C. M. Lyons, Montrose. Susquehanna county will be largely represented at the great Christian En deavor gathering in Scranton this week. As a convention city, Scranton Is an unqualified success. As a busi ness city, the concensus of opinion among commercial men is, that today it is the busiest, most wide-awake city of its size within two hundred miles of New York city. Whitney. PROF. COLES FOR OCTOBER. From Storms and Signs. Plight prospects ahead! Earth Is on the Inside track this month and old red warrior Mars Is safe in the arms of Gemini, the Twins. Business will im prove, labor will be more plentiful, many factories will start up anew, farmers will receive better prices for their products, millions of gold will be shipped to America, the price of silver will advance and a great religious re viva! will commence which will have a great tendency to disperse the coming bad political feeling that may lead to riot and bloodshed. The planets are just In the right position this month to down all business men that were born under the planets Uranus or Saturn. Therefore October may wltnesi more business failures than any other month of this present year. Mhny gorgeous , sunrise and sunset scenes will take place; watch them all. Two strange phenomena will appear in the heavens. The Atlantic coast will be storm swept. Terrible electrical storms will sweep over many parts of the country. High winds, accompanied with rain, hall and snow, will result in floodB and great disasters. A break will occur In the gaseous matter now passing over the sun, sometime be tween the 13th and 25th. and cause ter rible destructive electrical storms, cy clones, tornadoes, cloudbursts, hurri canes, etc. Let sailors on the ocean and nn the Groat Lakes take warning. Let ull those living along the sea-coast prepare for a record breaker. Five new comets and three meteors are headed toward the earth, but none of them are large enough or strong enough to force their way through earth's atmosphere. An Indian winter may precede our "In dian Summer" this fall. We give spec ial warning to all pprsons In poor health not to over-exert themselves on the 17th day of this month, as the vital forces of human life will fall from "high Hood" to "low ehb" and return to "high Hood" again, all within 24 hours time; the same sudden fall took place July 10th and thousands of per sons In all parts of the country dropped dead without a moment's warning. Rest, and live. The "giant" army worms will make their appearance, A denne fog will appear, luden with small dis ease germs that may result In an epi demic or lung trouble. The old coun try will receive terrible miction from the elements and from wars, earth quakes, tidal waves, epidemics, scourg es, loss of rulers, and Christians will be In danger of being massacred by the savages. The vital forces are at "high flood" one half of the whole month. This forfeits better times and better conditions of the weather. Many of the days will be fine to enjoy, as the sun. shining through the gaseous mat ter now passing over the sun, will give It a very red glare, nnd Its reflections will Increase the brilliancy of the moon wonderfully. No one should fall to witness this strange phenomena that will occur between the Kith nnd 2"th. We are now on the eve of one of the most prosperous times that America has ever enjoyed and no political pow ers can stay Its coming. When to 1'lnnt. Merrury Is now In slsrn Taurus, Venus Is In sign Scorpio. Earth Is In sign Aries, MarsJs In sign Gemini, Jup iter Is In sign Leo, while Saturn and Uranus are' In sign Gemini. Therefore the vital forces of all vegetable and animal life will be at their "highest flood" on the following dntes: 1st. 2d, 7th, Rth, 9th. 10th. 11th, 12th. 19th. 2flth. 2i'th, 28th, 2!th, and 30th, and at their "lowest ebb" on the M. 4th.1 T.th, dth, 13th, 14th. 15th, 1Hth. 17th, 1th, 21st, 22d, 23d. 24th, 27th and 31st. The "high flood" figures rule one-half of the time during the month, which forecast more prosperous times for the future months of this year. On Friday and Saturn1" v. 1th and 10th. will be the best days for lire sowing rf wheat or rye for grain. On Wednesday or Thursday 14th or inth. sow rye for early' spring pasture. Monday and Tuesday, 19th and 20th, are good days for wheat or rye for grain. PROF. C. COLES. Editor Storms and Signs. Kingston, Par, U. 8. A. HAS FAITH IN DAVID.
