Special Correspondence of Tho Tribune.
Susquehanna, July 20. William (or
Jack) Gallagher, a burly burglar, was
shot at about 2 o'clock on Saturday
morning, while burglarizing the Dela
ware and Hudson station in Lanesboro.
He had filled a sack with plunder, when
Officer Miles Lovelace and several of
tho villagers appeared, and Lovelace
and Gallagher at once commenoed a
struggle, during which Lovelace shot
Gallagher through the neck, the bullet
lodging In his cheek. The wounded
burglar was taken to the Town Hall
where his wounds were dressed. On
Monday he was taken to Montrose Jail
to await the action of the grand Jury.
Gallagher Is thought to be guilty of
various crimes along the Erie and the
Delaware and Hudson lines. Ho claims
to be a native of Hawley, Wayne coun
ty. He will probably recover from his
Injuries, and probably do the state
some service.
AND THESE ARE ODDITIES.
A Cascade man put his patent Incu
bator over a ducks egg and hatched a
duckling with four legs and two bills.
A gose with four feet Is owned by a
UnlondaJe farmer. When swimming It
uses one of Its legs as a rudder.
Myles McCaffrey, of Gulf Summit, has
four pigs that beat anything ever seen
in that vicinity. One has no trace pf
hind legs, another has no hoofs, but
claws take tho place of the generally-thought-necessary
porcine appendix,
and the two others have claws as toes,
and pretty nearly everything else that
pigs can get along without.
In a litter of pigs recently farrowed
near Starrucca was one which nearly
resembled an elephant. It had enormoua
ears, a long trunk and one tusk. It
was the color of an elephant, and Its
feet turned up In a peculiar way. The
trunk started from the forehead, and
extended out and down over the mouth.
It was one of those peculiar freaks
which occasionally occur In the animal
world.
IN A LINE OR SO.
It is now reported that the shirt fac
tory will resume operations August 1.
'Tls a consummation greatly to be de
sired. Resumption will be warmly wel
comed. In Beebo Park, on Saturday after
noon, tho Susquehanna club downed
the crack Port Jervls nine 11 to 5. The
home nine will cross bats with the
Blnghamton nine, In this place, on
Thursday next. A game with the Cuban
Giants Is being arranged.
Contractor William Knoeller, of Hal
stead, has been awarded the contract
for .erecting the new Presbyterian
church edifice In this place. Consider
ation, about $12,000. The work of re
moving the old edifice to an adjacent
lot, will begin today. The old structure
will be used as a place of worship un
til the completion of the new edifice.
Prof Harley Newcomb Is endeavor
ing to arrange for the presentation of
the opera, "The Recluse" In this place.
FLOTSAM AND JETSAM.
It Is possible that, when the city
fathers of Carbondale pass the Cur
few ordinance, thoy will Include some
of the old boys who prowl around un
til the small hours of the morning.
An Ararat farmer a few weeks since
placed a dozen goose eggs in an old
bureau drawer, and forgot all about
them. Last week the farmer's wife
found seven goslings In the drawer.
The Intense heat had brought them
forth.
Montrose has something of a sensa
tion and lovers of newspaper sewerage
are delighted. It doesn't take much to
please some people.
The Hallstead Herald suggests that
the new borough Jail be made largo
enough to accommodate the common
council. An excellent suggestion. If the
common council of many of the cities
and towns were kept in Jail it would be
a mighty good thing for the taxpayers
and the streets.
The Great Bend Plalndealer states
that an escaped lunatic from the Blng
hamton asylum was a few days since
In that borough, calling from house to
house for a bible. The man was surely
insane. A sane person would not ex
pect to find a bible In Great Bend.
BITS OF POLITICS.
A Washington correspondent has dis
covered that our own Galusha Grow is

There is a rumor that if our stato
Senator Hardenbergh fails to secure
the Republican nomination for auditor
general, that he will be a candidate for
congress from this district, to succeed
Congressman Codding, who hopes to
succeed himself. With Wright, of
Susquehanna, and Greene, of Wayne,
also prominent in the race, things
political In this district will be a trifle
mixed. There Is room for a merry war.

THE MARKETS.
Wnll Streotllcvieur.
New York, July 20. Tho stock market,
after considerable early activity and
strength closed firm below prices, but at
fractional net gains. The strength in
Suear ws In nntlclijr.ton of the bcnetlts
to be derived from tho new tariff. The
Sugar company having secured a most ac
ceptable schedule passed by tho houie
and presented to tho senate failed to Justl
fy the fears of a sensational break enter
tained by some traders aftor yesterday's
eight-point advance and on tho contrary
opened up iyt per cent. Subsequently It
secured an extreme gain for the day of
ii, establishing a new record of 14SU and
thereafter gradually declining, closed with
a net gain of 2W. Generally speaking,-
iractionai recessions followed the noon
hours on successful traders converting
paper profits into bank deposits. Prices
were from time to tlmo marked upward
but the tendency to advanco was checkid
by threatened Democratic opposition to a
prompt concluclon on the tariff bill and on
rumors of tho possibility of tho export
of gold duo to the large ante-tariff bill
Importations, especially of Sugar and to
discharge obligations due Europe for re
turned American securities. Tho total
sales of stocks today wero 379,820 shares.
