peclal to the Scranton Tribune.
Sustiuelinnnn, July B. One morning
recently Partner Mnrtln of Burnwood
BOlng Into lila chicken pirk found ti fox
lying "dead" on the ground. The ani
mal seemed to have Just died, and
Martin's first Impulse was to take him
by the tall and throw him over the
fence. He concluded, however, to take
it to the house, show it to the fnmlly,
artd then skin It. His wife laid It in her
lap for a while and remarked that the
body -was stilt warm and the children
patted it and pitied it for some time.
Suddenly some one opened a window
and like a flash the fox leaped from
Mrs. Martin's lap and bounded for the
' window. He fell nbout an inch short
and tho window was closed. After
some lively chasing about the house
lteynard was caught, and In a few
days became quite docile.
Farmer Woodson, too, ha3 had a
queer experience while out hunting
nbovo tho cascade. A. fox that had
given him a lively chase, ran down a
steep hill and dashed toward the Sus
quehanna river, where a boat was lying
loosely on tho shore. The force of its
jump sent the craft out into the stream
and when Woodson came up tho boat
was in tho middle of the river, floating
.with the current.
In the boat, standing on the seat In
the stern, was the fox, gazing back at
his baffled pursuer with evident satis
faction. Woodson discovered another
' boat on tho shore, and, pushing it off,
paddled after the boat that was bear
ing the fox away. The fox's boat was
gradually being carried by the current
nearer the opposite shore, and by the
time tho hunter in his boat was half
way from the starting point the fox's
boaot was within a rod of the Lanes
i boro shore.
This seemed to be nbout as much .as
tho fox cared to ask for and he jumped
overboard and swam ashore. By the
time Woodson reached the shore the
fox was a mile away.
NEWS MATTERS.

Ryan took place and was largely at

THE PRESIDENT
Of the City Council, Wilkes-
barre, Pa., Cured of
Rheumatism.
Col. Wm. J. Harvey, a president of
Wilkesbarre's city council, who will long
be remembered for his great work for the
city, was once a mere physical wreck,
torn In every muscle and nervo from the
frightful pains caused by rheumatism.
He consulted the best physicians, went
abroad, took mud baths, and almost
every known treatment for tho disease.
A friend had,had a very similar experience
and Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Rem
edy had cured him, so he recommended
this great kldneymedlcInetoCol. Harvey
and he Is to-day a well man, hale and
hearty. He writes straight to the point:
Dr. David Kennedy,
Dear Sir : This Is to certify that I
was permanently cured of rheuma
tism by the use of Dr. David Ken
nedy's Favorite Remedy.
Wm. J. Harvey.
Rheumatism Is but another name for
uric acid poisoning which Is caused pri
marily by diseased kidneys. Cure your
kidneys and the rheumatism disappears.
For all diseases of the kidneys, liver,
bladder and blood, rheumatism, dyspep
sia and chronic constipation, ns well as
sicknesses peculiar to women, Dr. David
Kennedy's Favorite Remedy is unques
tionably the greatest medicine known to
the medical profession.
It is for sale by all druggists in the
NOW BO Oent SIXB and the regular
$1.00 size bottles less than a cent a dose.
Sampli bottlt enough for trial, frtt by mail.

appear to have struck nothing except
"excellent Indications."
Over in Gibson, a few days since,
some coal miners, who nro chopping
wood In a timber tract, had a strike,
which lasted one day.
This vicinity is said to be in the oil
and gas belt, which crops out at Oil
City and other points west and south
west of here.
SORT O' POSTCR1PT.
The annual banquet and reception of
tho Laurel Hill Academy Alumni asso
ciation will bo held on Monday evening
next, at the Starrucca House, in the
Knights of Columbus' parlors.
Rev. George W. Leach, the veteran
Oakland side clergyman, Is recovering
from his severe and protracted illness.
There will never be political peace In
Susquehanna county, so long as there
arc more dogs than bones. s
Two Honcsdalc editors are wildly
heating the ambient air, because the
Republican senatorial situation doesn't
suit them. They arc not Republicans,
mid they will not support the nominee,
w nether he comes from Ssuquchanna or
Wayne, and their great wrath and
wonderful anxiety borders on tho ridi
culous. It's none of their funeral, at
best, and the Republicans of the dis
trict can uttend to their own family
f ght without outside dictation, help or
interference. Whitney.
EAST STERLING.
Special to tho Scranton Tribune.
East Sterling, July 8. Chlldcn's Day
was observed In the East Sterling M. P.
church on Sunday afternoon, July 6.
A number of children took part in the
speaking and singing and did credit to
themselves. The decorations were very
nice, while a canary bird with its
sweet notes sang out amid the singing
of the choir. The church was filled to
overflowing.
Much praise is duo to those who
trained the children and to all that
contributed to making it such a suc
cess. A collection was taken up for
foreign missions, after tho missionary
address by the pastor, Thomas Hooper.

Wall Street Review.
Now York, July 8. Something very like
a scramble to take prollts at tho end of
tho day served to throw somo discredit
upon tho character of tho 'day's move
ment In stocks, which reached consid
erable proportions and a semblance of
much moro substantial character than
anything In tho recent cotirso of the
market. Spots of strength wero moro nu
merous and dividend paying Stocks wcio
foremost In tho trading. The ordcts
from single commission houses and tho
Individual blocks taken of somo high
grndo railroad stocks fairly warranted an
Inference ot Investment buying. Such
buying was manifest In Now Yotk Cen
tral and Chicago and Northwestern. This
probably had more than uny ono thing to
do with dissipating tho feeling ot sus
picion which has been persistently felt
towards tho wholo recent upward move
ment. Tho reaction at tho closo of the
day revived theso suspicions, and the
largo proportion of tho day's buying or
ders, which wero for western account,
kept alive tho supposition that tho
"western contingent" wero actively ma V
pulatlng the market, In connection with
tho renewed pressure upon tho shorts In
July corn. Tho special strength of St.
Paul was accompanied by revival of old
rumors of conttol of that property by
Union Pacific. Tho soft coal carriers
wero taken on the demonstrated benefit
they uro receiving from tho paralysis of
tho nnthracltc coal trafllc. Thl." move
ment embraced somo of tho common
slocks of Morgan rc-organlzatlons, In
cluding Southern Railway and Erie, but
tho Readings und anthraclto carriers gen
erally wero nlmost stagnant.
United States Steel fell nearly a point
In tho lato dealings on tho postponement
of tho decision of the appeal of tho suit
ngalnst tho stock conversion plan, and
on tho beginning of a new suit. This and
tho sharp break In Colorado Fuel aggra
vated tho reaction and the closing was
easy. Today's total sales of stock wero
677.SUO shares.
Business in bonds broadened out some
what, but the market was irregular.
Total sales, par .value, M,CU3,000. United
States new 4's declined U on the last call.
