The skin of the panther that Sena
tor Quay shot in Florida with his
pistol, has been tanned by tanner
Foerdersr of Philadelphia. "The hide
was tanned in 40 hours. Quay will
have th leather made into shoes for
himself and wife. It will be remem
bered that the Senator and several
friends were returning from a fish
ing excursion through a strip of wood
to his cabin. Quay was belpiog to
carry a large fish a tarpon when
suddenly a panther sprang from the
side of tbe path on the fisb. Quay
and ms mends turned upon the pan

animal.

reer so unexpectedly mat tbe an
nouncement of his death caused a
surprise in this community. He has
always been a well-to-do man and
was making arrangements to build a
new bouse at Mt. Pleasant. He leaves
a wife and five children to mourn ov
er his departure. His remains were
brought home on Saturday evening.
Interment on Tuesday in Presbyter

It is astonishing how the panther
stories blossom this spring. Senator
Quay while coming to his camp in
Florida with a great fish, recently,
was surprised to find a large half
starved panther leaping at him.
The panther did not catch the Sen
ator, but seized the fish and was de
vouring it when Quay and his friends
shot the beast and saved the fish.
The reader may have a suspicion that
there is agood deal of fish in Quay's
panther story, and there is, but the
story from Mr. Summers of Lvwis
town has no fish in aid is short and
to the point, that while he was on his
way from the Narrows water station
to Lawistown a panther came d wn
on the railroad behind him aad cU .a
ed him quite a distance. It woald'nt
be much of a surprise if the panther
turns up in Milford township this
county and raises an excitement like
the wild cat excitement near Patter
son last fall.
Everyone has heard of "Peter,

that John Yanderstadt pat his wife
in a burean drawer not because he
could'nt keep her. but for some oth.
er reason. On March the 25th. Mrs.
Yanderstadt had him brought before
a justice to answer. She complain
ed that her husband, when he felt
like it, would seize her and place her
in a large bureau drawer. He had
bored holes in the back of the bureau
to allow the passage of air, and when
he put his wife in the drawer he
would lock it, keeping her there in
some instances as long as five houis.
Mrs. Yanderstadt said he was not of
a quarrelsome nature, and that he
looked npoa the affair aa a joke.
When Yanderstadt appeared before
the Justice, he promised not to re
peat his performance, and his wife
did not want him panished he was
allowed to go.
it is remarkable what big fish
stones are afloat on the aaalf as not
to be compared to the larger carp
stories.

''It takes an intelligent, refined
woman with a strong will and good
sound sense to make a good nurse,"
the Superintendent of a large train
ing s-jhool writes in the April Ladies'
Home Journal. She must be able to
command the respect of her patient.
She mast be sympathetic, orderly,
dignified and incapable of betraying
alarm before her patient. She must
be ready and quick to act in any
emergency, but slow to assume amth
ority that belongs to her superiors.
She must be of a cheerful, hopeful
nature. With these attributes, join
ed to the practical knowledge of ar
ranging a sick-room, preparing the
invalid's bed, removing of bandages,
tne giving of medicines (as well as
understanding their properties), a
knowledge of cooking and a desire
to do her doty, regardless of her sur
roundings or of any adverse criticism,
she would be a model nurse. There
is, of course, so ins theoretical train
ing through text books and lectures
to be gone through, but without the !
other qualifications no woman can be
come a successful nurse." '
