Special Correspondence to Tho Tribune.
Susquehanna, April C A few days
since, John "Wright, of Falrdale, while
walking down a pleasant lane, was
accosted by a restless steer, which sug
gested a little promenade. Mr. Wright's
objections did not count, so he turned
around and went back on his tracks,
bo as to go the same way the steer was
going. Then the frisky steer waltzed
him down that lane, In and out of the
fence corner, around a 40-acre lot,
under a bridge, through tho stockyard,
around a barn three or four tlmoB, un
der a hay wagon and out again,
through an orchard and over a pair of
bars, into a milk house, through a
blackberry patch and up a shellbark
tree. "While attempting to climb the
tree after him the steer fell and broke
his neck. The owner of the sociable
"critter" sued Wright for malicious
mischief In causing Its death, but tho
unsympathetic jury discharged the
murderer without a struggle, and piled
the costs on the irate prosecutor. It was
a great week for Farmer John Wright.
THE PADRONK 1IKLD TO BAIL.
Michael Delpapa, the well-known El
mlra padrone, was brought before
Justice Tiffany, In this place, on Sat
urday, charged by Augustus Forte, an
Italian track laborer, of this place,
with conspiring to cheat the said Forte
nnd others. The case, which attracted
a crowd, was summed up on Monday
afternoon, when Delpapa was held to
ball in tho sum of $500 for his appear
ance before the Grand Jury. Tho case
grows out of the padrone system of
furnishing the Erie railroad with labor
ers. In a few years Delpapa Is said to
have amassed a fortune, estimated at
$200,000, In the business. The laborer
is charged $5 for being given a Job.
Then he Is assessed 51 per month for
the honor of being on the pay roll. He
Is also charged for rent of the old
freight cars or shanties along the line.
Dalpapa Is also nn Italian barber,
grocer and liquor dealer. He furnishes
several railroads with laborers. It Is
reported that, In view of recent de
tractable developments, the Erie will
abolish the padrone system on its en
tire system and give American citizens
a chance to obtain work.
RAILROAD FLOTSAM.
Traffic Is the dullest on the Jefferson
Branch known In years.
Several locomotives are being re
built In the Erie shop. The men are still
working seven hours per day.
Jefferson Branch conductor Polk Pal
mer, of this place, will write a book,
entitled, "What I Know and Think
About tho Grippe."
Howard Taylor, formerly of the Sus
quehanna shop, has been nppolnted
master mechanic of the Lehigh Valley
shop In Wilkes-Barre.
Attached to a record-breaking freight
train on tho Erie's New York division,
a few days since, was a car equipped
with appliances for testing and record
ing the amount of "pull" exerted by
the locomotive at various points. Tho
car, which was built In tho Erie shop
here, was attached to tho locomotive,
and the balance of the train followed.
THE COW DEFENDED IIBIi.
Recently a vicinity farmer's wife was
assailed by her husband, In a Held,
where was standing a cow that the
woman greatly petted. On seeing the
rnan beating his wife, tearing her
clothing and otherwise maltreating her,
the cow charged up tho field and at
tacked tho man with such fierceness
that he was glad to retreat. The animal
then took up a defensive position by
the woman's side and stood perfectly
still, while the woman struggled to her
feet and supported herself by leaning
against Its Hank until she had suffi
ciently recovered to take refuge from
her husband in (light.

THEY ARE PROHIBITIONISTS,
TOO!
Leo Wrlghton, of Tuscarora, last
week hired a man to clean out a well
which had not been used for some
time. Ho had lowered tne man to the
bottom of the well, In a tub, and was
turning away when he heard a pierc
ing yell. Looking Into the well he saw
a multitude of snakes along the rocky
walls reaching out their long heads.
The man from below could see their
glistening eyes. He screamed and
raved nnd flopped around In the tub,
nnd begged to bo drawn up. Mr.
Wrlghton began to turn tho windlass
and the man was drawn up through
the mass of protruding snakes' heads.
In lils excitement he shook the rope,
which swayed tho tub to and fro, so
that ho was thrown unconfortably close
to tho reptiles. When he Jumped out
ho was covered with cold perspiration,
and his body trembled like a leaf. He
spread the story of his adventure, nnd
no one could bo hired to clean the well.
Mr. Wrlghton commenced to remove
the rocks and fill It up, and tho snakes
immediately began to show themselves.
Before ten feet of rocks had been re
moved, sixty-four snakes, from two to
six feet long, had been killed. Then
tho well caved in nnd the remainder
were burled.

MARKETS AND STOCKS.
Wall Stroot Iteviow.
Nqw York, April 6. Interest in selling
of stocks was very languid on the Stock
exchango today and tho market was ap
parently aflllcted with an attack of spring
fever. Many of the stocks which are
usually dealt In had not a slnclo salo
recorded to their credit and others
showed only a fow odd lots wlth not a
single full share lot to make a quotation.
Fluctuations In tho main were very nar
row, not offering a sufficient margin to
invite operations oven by tho profes
sional traders. Tho dullness seemed to
bo reflected In part from other coun
tries, London showing nothing doings In
Americans, the stagnation being so
marked that London agents of somo of
tho houses In tho street ceased cabling.
Chicago was taken up with her municipal
election and Boston and Philadelphia
wero also very qrit. Such dealings as
occurred were subject to entirely fic
titious Influences and wero concentrated
In a, few stocks. Tho absenco of the
Heavy liquidation that has characterized
some recent markets was, however,
marked and the railway list held remark
ably Arm.

From the Leader,
Few boys withstand" nn Hlneis of so serious
nature bs that with which Fred I,. Howse

Ills home is No. 30 Plymouth Place, Clcvc
lnnd.Ohlo, nndhe is now a picture of puerile
health and vigor. Iutlio fallof 1895, however,
his parents, Air. and Mrs. Itlclmrd Howse,
the former, a well-known business man,
whoe office Is in tho Arcade, had almost de
spaired of saving hii life. Tho lad became
aflllcted with Inflammatory rheumatism
which affected his entire body, nnd accom
panying that painful ailment were several
other very serious disorders. When she wns
requested to describe her son's sickness nnd
Ills recovery, Mrs. Howse said :
"It was in September, 1805, that Fred
who wns up to that time in delicate health,
was attacked by Inflammatory rheumatism.
It was n very acuto caso for he wns confined
to his bed, nnd was unable to move even his
arms or legs without bringing on excruciat
ing pain.
"As
side from fhc rheumatism Prod's liver
was in serious disorder, and lie used to vomit
frequently. He wns nlso subject lo fainting
spells, nnd nltogether he had a very serious
sickness.
" We knew, of course, that though the
rheumatism was exceedingly painful, it wns
not necessarily dangerous ; the fainting spells
and vomiting however nlnrmcd us. Often
when Fred fainted he would lay liko one
