and was dressed In a black suit and

l)lu from Fright.
Hazleton, Mny 31. Miss Alice Brlce,
of Hlngtown, returned home much fa
tigued after a dance one night recently
svayn the Sentinel. She went to the
cupboard to purtake of a. lunch, and
when she oiened the doors the family
cat, which had been locked In by mis
take, leaped out and landed on her
breast.
. Mlfcs Brlce was so frightened that she
fainted and fell heavily to tho floor.
She was shortly afterward restored to
consciousness and apparently recovered
from her mishap, assisting her mother
In the household duties. Later her
queer actions attracted the attention
of the houtehold and medical aid was
quickly summoned. Soon she began to
show unmlstakeable slgna of hydropho
bia and In a short time she began to
loam at the mouth and snap at every
thing. The sight of water or animals
provoked the attacks and her buffer
ings were something awful.
She had to be pinioned to a bed and
confined to a dark room. Her agony
Is so terrible that It Is feared she will
soon die.

Thero will ,le unprecedented evil doings
in all parts of the world.
We reached the summit of evil plan

month, and are now sailing down
through the Land of Evil, so to speak,
and may witness great destruction,
such as railroad wrecks, mine caves,
destructive fires, riots, strikes, panics,

Therefore we warn you to guard your

The new moon will appear very far
to the north on the 2d Inst., and will
be on tho equator twice this month
on the 8th and on the 20th. This will
cause many hard electrical storms;
also, some very cool weather resulting
In frost and hall, or snow, In some sta
tions. Reautiful days will predomin
ate; but several destructive storms of
rain, hall, wind and dust will sweep
over many sections like mad. Thorain
will be very unevenly distributed this
month; and while some sections nre
having Hoods, other sections will feel
the want of rain. Tho weeks following
the 8th and 20th, the time that the
moon passes the equator as recorded
above, will be the greatest danger pe
ilods. According to our predictions for April
and May numerous vegetable microbes
have already commenced their work of
destruction; nnd the only way to get
rid of these pests Is to do all your
planting and sowing at "high flood"
time (according to the laws of nature)
and thereby secure a rapid nnd healthy
growth. For, as a rule, vegetable, mic
robes dp not bother strong, healthy
vegetation no more than do disease
microbes disturb sound, healthy men
and women. Out of the frost, bitten
peach tree leaves will spring up the
miasmatic microbe and as a result
many trees will lose their foliage. Early
planted potatoes will also be destroyed
by these microbes.

How a Texas Dogberry Uphold tho
Mnjestv of the Law,
Texas Is a big state and has a large
population, Including many men of
great eminence. Rut there Is no man
in that whole sovereignty, Bays Leslie's
Weekly, with a, more refulgent glory
than Judge Roy Bean, of Langtry,
who declares that he is the "law west
of the Pecos." West of the Pecos river
In Texas there are no limitations to
Judge Bean's Jurisdiction, and he does
not, It has been hinted, let1 mere stat
utes, "as In such cases made and pro
vided," Influence him. to amy great
extent In his desire to make the pun
ishment fit the crime.
There Is an anecdote told of him
when he sat as coroner and held an In
quest on the body of a man who had
met a violent death by falling from the
great railway bridge, that spans the
Pecos river. An examination showed
that the man had a revolver and $40
In cash In his pockets when he was
killed. After swearing In a Jury and
looking over the effects of the dead
man, Judge Bean said: "Gentlemen
of the Jury, there ain't no doubt how
this man came to his death; that's all
plain; but what I would like to know
Is why In the name of thunder he car
ried that gun. Now, gentlemen, it's
agln,the law to carry a concealed and
loaded gun in the state of Texas, and
Jist because this gentleman took It
into his head to get killed I don't
mean to let him offend the peace and
dignity of Texas. I fine him $40."
