Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Susqttehannu, Nov. 0. Edward La
grew, a sportsman residing near Sum
norsville, this county, Is In possession
of a dog whoso general knowledge of
what Is required of hltn while hunt
ing cannot be cqunlled by any other
canine. The owner of the dog has had
a contrivance made which Is fustened
to the dog's back, In which ho places
his shotgun, both barrels loaded heav
lly, and the hammers at full cock. To
the trigger Is attached a string which
Is placed In tt dog's mouth. When
all Is ready tu dog starts' for n flock
of partridges, and when within a few
yards of them, he crouches down and
pulls the string. The first attempt ne
bagged eleven birds, and since the
first trial he has killed over fifty In
this manner. Tho owner refused $100
for the dog recently.
AND HK HAN WELL.
Martin J. Ryan, Susquehanna's popu
lar postmaster, was the Democratic
candidate for prothonotary of Susque
hanna county, nnd, although defeated,
he made a splendid run, forging con
siderably ahead of his ticket. In Sus
quehanna, where he was born, he had
a majority of 244, the largest major
ity ever received by a candidate In tho
place. Mr. Ryan has made a model
postmaster, and he would have made a
first-class prothonotary.
WKLL. V ' RDLY!
Luzerne Is pot the only Republican
county that received a portion of the
lightning. It even struck rock-ribbed
Republican Susquehanna. This Is not
the result of local causes, but discon
tent with state leadership and numer
ous scandals. Wllkes-Barre Record.
The Record, In common with hundreds
of other papers, was misled by a twist
ed Associated Press report. Susque
hanna county gave a Republican ma
jority of over 1,100. Not much "light
ning" about that! When old Susque
hanna gets in tho awful habit of going
Democratic, hunters will gc out Into
the woods nnd shoot white blackhlids.
NEEDLESS ALARM.
As one glances at the Hillside ham
let of Susquehanna, a thrill of horror
shakes their frame when they think of
landslides. What If a landslide should
occur ut Susquehanna? Tho only ulti
mate end would be to participate the
town into the waters of the Susque
hanna river. The neighbors in the
nearby village have the deepest sym
pathy of our people and their sincere
hope Is that no such thing as a land
slide may occur to blot from off the
universe the Hillside city. Hallstead
Herald.
The Hallstead Herald people need
not lose any sleep over an Improbable
landslide In Susquehanna. What they
have to fear Is a very probable vol
canic eruption on the part of one wick
ed Psamuel Moore, who sits serenely
just across the raging river. All the
same, we would like to be away visit
ing when Susquehanna Is "partici
pated" Into the waters below.

You Admire Handsome Rugs
But they're so expensive that they arc probably beyond your
reach. Still once in a while a chance comes your way, for get
ting FINE HUGS AT UAKGAIN TltlCES.
That chance is here now, but quick buying is necessary, for
there's only a few of them, and the reason for selling them at
such absurd prices is simply this: A water pipe burst on our third
floor. The Rugs soaked, and they're very slightly water stained,
althought the damage is not sufficient to do them any real harm
or spoil their appearencc in any way. These are not Jute Rugs,
but line finished East Indian goods. '
