'After fruitless missionary work in tnany of the nearby towns two Mormon elders havo returned to "the land of their fathers," and according to news paper reports arc meeting with good success. Susquehanna Is now head quarters for the two apostles of tho Latter Day Saints. Hero It was that Joseph Smith was "called of God to call men to repentance," and the first recruits of that particular sect were mustered In from the village of hills and wood steps. Whitney writes so el oquently against the Mormon elders that wo infer he wishes to get rid of the "pesky" fellows before he falls a victim to their seductive wiles. He doubts his own resisting power it put to the test. "Whit." with a dozen wives! Just think of it! Forest City News. MATTERS IN OENERAL. Tho scheme to consolidate the Sus quehanna and Lanesboro Cornet bands has gone glimmering. The funeral of Mrs. Mary Reilly, an nged resident Of Forest street, was largely attended from St. John's Cath olic church on Sunday afternoon. Re quiem high mass was celebrated on Monday morning. In St. Mary's Catholic church, Derry. Pa., a few days since, Miss Catharine M. Dunlea, formerly of Susquehanna, was united In marriage to Joseph F. Keetlng. Rev. William Dunlea, former ly of Susquehanna, was celebrant of 'the nuptial mass. Miss Mary A. Griffin, of Susquehanna, was bridesmaid. Mr. and Mrs. Keetlng will reside In Pitts burg. The Village Improvement society will soon place ten galvanized Iron recep tacles for scraps of paper and rubbish, at convenient places about the bor ough. Some of the largo flags about tho town need tho services of a dress maker. "Shaffer's makln' lots o' hay While the sunshine's pood, Merrltt's spcedln' on tho way, Dewey's say. In' wood, Bohley Immersed 'cm out of sight, Bampson eat the Jam, Everthlng's a comln' right 'Rah for Uncle Sam!" WEDNESDAY POT-POURRI. Montrose's proposed centennial cele bration has evidently been postponed inn years. It will keep. Pnntylvanlu people go to York ptatn to get married. York state peo ple come hero to get divorced. The account Is square. Has Consul Oeneral Lee been lost in tho general shuftle? Whoever applies his labor to an un occupied portion of the earth's surface in its cultivation seals his title of right fid ownership thereto In the sweat of his face as It moistens the soil he tills. Galush A. Grow. The man who takes a little pains to glvo a newspaper man n good piece of news ts thoroughly appreciated in a newspaper oWce. A man who keeps his mouth buttoned unless the piece of v.eva will help along some little scheme of his own, or give him a little free advertising, Is well, he isn't. IN OLD SUSQUEHANNA COUNTY. The next meeting of the Susquehan na County Medical society will be held In New Mllford, Oct. 4. Hen. Amos J. Cummlngs, of New York, who Is summering at Columbian Grove, near Susquehanna, on Monday evening delivered his lecture, "Cuba aa I Saw It," in Montrose.

Whitney, In North Jackson, Aug ust 25. Tho MuntroEc Monitor, a Popull8tlc organ, Is the very latest craft launched upon the local Journalistic, sea. Burglars are relieving the excessive monotony of llfo In Forest City. The James Green family reunion will bo held In Finn's hall, in Clifford, Aug. 25. The family Is Green in namo only. On Thursday evening the barn of Charles Belcher, In North Jackson, was struck by lightning and destroyed by fire. Forest City yearns for manufactur ing establishments. Tho Susquehanna shirt factory Is for sale. SOME SIDE ISSUES. With a railroad from Jefferson Park to Fiddle Lake, somo of tho other summer resorts will have a brilliant future behind them. Poultry sometimes conies high. A few nights since somo Susquehanna sports stole and ate a rooster belong ing to a suburban farmer. Later on a they paid $5 for tho rooster, a Justice of the Peace acting as mediator. When the average man ts as good as tho averazc woman, the world will be the better for It. A young lady acquaintance says she Is "glad that she Is not affectionate." She Is probably willing that her pros pective husband shall furnish affection for two. IT WASN'T A COON. Farmer Bradley, of Melrose, n few mornings slnco wont out upon the hills for a coon hunt. Near noon tho dog started something and, after running It for a short distance, treed his gnme In a tall ash. Tho hunter walked about the tree several times without discov ering the animal, which ho supposed to be a raccoon, but presently discov ered it crouched In a fork of the tree, about twenty feet from tho ground. Bradley sent a load of shot tip the tree, which was followed by a startling screech, and the half falling, half scrambling descent of tho evidently In jured game. As soon ns It reached tho ground tho dog wiled In, but was Im mediately sent yelping from the scene by a powerful blow from one of tho paws of the animal, which proved to be a full grown wildcat of tho male per suasion. Bradley at this Juncture gave tho beast the contents of the other bar rel of his gun, and finally finished the savage creature with a club. The cat was a big one, weighing about forty pounds.

As already noted the committee will meet at Bed ford Springs on August 17. MOVING TROOPS. Soldiers at Jacksonville and Other Southern Points Will Come North. Washlnton, Aug. 9. A large move ment of troops northward Is probable. It Is the purpose of the war depart ment, now that General Wade's Porto Rico expedition has been abandoned, to move the troops at Jacksonville, Chlckamauga and Newport News, and perhaps those nt Manassas, Va further north. Practice marches will be re sorted to In a considerable degree In order to Improve the health of the troops. All the soldiers at the points named will not be moved, but a large part of them will receive orders. DR. PEPPEK'S WILL. Contrary to Expectation He Makes No Public Bequest. Philadelphia, Aug. 9. Contrary to ex pectation, the late Dr. William Pep. per, whose will was probuted today, left no public bequest. Tho doctor pro vided for a gift of $75,000 to tho Uni versity of Pennsylvania, but a codicil added to tho will last month revokes even this bequest, with the explanation that the gift of this sum was mado during the lifetime of the testator. The entire estate Is devised to the widow and three eons of Pr. Pepper. THE MARKETS. Wall Street Reviow. New York, Aug. 0. Tho belief was gen eral today that Spain's reply to the United States proposals were of such a character that It might endanger the wholo negotiations for peace by Us fail ure to return straightforward answers to tho questions at l.suo. This belief was cffectlvo In depressing securities. Offer ings on tho decline were very large but thcro was evident also u rcmurkablo pow er of nbsorptlon which held price, with a fow exceptions, almost perfectly steady through somo of tho most octlvo periods of tho trading. Recent leaders suffered qulto severely, and In this list nro Includ cd specially, Burlington, St. Puul, Rock Island, Brooklyn Rapid Transit, Sugar and tho Ruljher stocks. Yesterday's profit taking followed by today's selling caused renewed fears among the traders that tho largo dealers were selling out. There were several Individual stocks which showed sufficient strength to exr clso a sustaining Influence, among them being Cleveland Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis, Chesapeake and Ohio, Leather and People's Gas tho latter rising nn ex treme threo points but reacting on tho day's final profit taking movements. Price, at one time rallied to near last night's close and In a few cases nbove, but the bulk of the trading waB at a lower level. While no attempt was ap parent to sustain prices homo very large blocks of stocks were taken at tho lower level, which served to inspire confidence and lift tho depression. Total sales were 411,100 shares. Furnished by WILLIAM LINN ALLEN & CO., stock brokers, Mcars' building, rooms 703-700. Open- High- Low- Clos ing, est. est. lug. Am. Cot. OH 27',& 2S?i 2"',4 2714 Am.
