Tale of Hidden Treasure Down In
Franklin Township.

A Few Knilrond l'nets.Noles Tor

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.

A party of deer-slayers will leave

ance walking.
Pass are Idling beautifully In the riv
er near Lansboro. A Susquehanna
fisherman caught seventy-live nice

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.
