The council are doing good work this year. Fourth of July four weeks from next Wednesday. If you want better times, elect Republican congressmen. Everybody is pleased with the ad vancement of Laporte this spring. The kindling wood factory at Lo pez, resumed operation last week. At this season of the year, there is no place like a home in Lnporte. The landlords of Eagles Mere. contemplate a good season this year. It generally rains court week and this week is no exception to the rule. The attendance at Sunday School increases, as the pic nic season ap proaches. A large number of new buildings are in course of construction in La porte. Chas. Lawrence made Williams port a business trip, on Monday afternoon. Flowers were not very plentiful on Decoration Day. They had come and gone. Hon. Russel Karns is having a wire fence built around his Lake Mokoma lots. Dr. Chatree of Towanda, was among the court visitors iu town the early part of the week. A wet May means plenty of hay. If this saying is correct, wo will have a large crop this year. Attys. Wm. Maxwell aiid D. C. DeWitt, both of Towanda, are in at tendance at court this week. Wftverly requires a bond from every cyclist to cover dam ages that may arise from accidents. A Carbotidale man who married his dead wife's sister now refers to the departed one as his sister-in-law. There is one scriptural injunction that most men obey and that is they love their enemies—rum and tobac co. The officials of the Lake Mokoma Land Company, are having a road graded ulong the west side of the lake. Mr. and Mrs. C. F. Cheney and daughter, Miss Bessie of the 'Mere, were calling on friends in Laporte, Sunday. There was a general demand for j umbrellas Monday and our mer- j chants did a good business in this department. A large number of court guests took a look at the court boii>e foundation and pronounced it a first class job. The ton it coin.cii will no doubt order iome repairs made to the j roids in the second ward at their next meet in':. The attendance at court during the eaily part of ti>o w. ek, was extraordinary large for this, May term of court. The drill is pounding aw ly at tin* I teat oil well near Forkatou, and Un people are impatiently awaiting I developements.

The Democratic office seekers arc In town with their hand extended, n smile, :i bow. a how to-ilo and a gen i'ial rchersal of the weather. It takes. We have placed a dozen or more new subscribers on onr list this week. The circulation of the llki'lhuoan, is increasing at a very satisfactory rate. The officials of the Lako Mokoma Land Company have posted in con spicuous places about the lake—"No lishing for Suckers on these premis es.'' The Sullivan and Wyoming coun ty jails are empty of prisoners. W'liats the good ot a President Judge in this, the 44th judicial dis trict, anyway ? People wishing to do business with the editor wili find him at his sanctum. We havu't time to run the country over at the request of Tom, Die and Harry. There was a heavy frost in this vicinity on Monday night and the old farmers say lots of damage was done to the fruit. The garden truck in sight, was, ''in it." There are 87 court guests registered at the Lnporta Hotel! 51 at Hotel Kennedy ; l>*2 at the Mountain House ind GO at Fairview Cottage. Making a total of 2GO. The Dushore papers have failed to mention the pie-nio to be hold at Laportc, on August 15lh. The La porte subscribers to these papers will give this matter due notice. If, as the Democrats argue, it is right to put a special tax on a man because he earns beyond a given sum of money, it is also right to take care of the man who earns nothing. The Republicans of Sullivan conn ly will place in nomination the strongest ticket possible, at their convention, regardless of friendly feelings toward some of her can didates. The average length of life is great er in Norway than in any other country on the globe. This is at tributed to the fact that the tempera ture is cool and uniform during the entire year. Atty. 11 J. Thomson of Dushore, recently returned from a business trip to Nebraska, lie appears very nnioli impvovod in health. Ilush is one of the hardest working attorneys in the county. Tue Prohibitionists of Wyoming county, liehl tluir convention, re cently and elected conferees favor able to the nomination of Atty, E. D. Nicholas, of Wilkes-Barre, for President -fudge. The citizens of Wiltiainsport are! holding meetings for the purpose of! advocating the best and cheapest plan of protection against floods. Some advance the id'a of a fort along the river bunk. The Elmira Atb'ertiaer says that from the retail price of beef in that city iu comparison with the cost of other products, it has not been ho high since the children of Israel made a calf of pure gold, Hon. J esse Baker of Media, father of the liaker Ballot Law, accompani ed by a number of friends contem plates u fish iu the Sullivan county streams. They will be the guests of V r. I"rank Buck, of Lopez.

This is simple and worth a trial. Eugene Tripp, W. B. liitter and Saiu'l. Kostenbiuler received the con tract of building the four dwellings for the Laporte Huilding Associa tion on Friday evening last. Two of the houses are to be completed by Jul) - 15th ami the other two by the 15th of September. The New York Hoard of Health has taken steps to put a stop to the sale to children of candy in a certain form known as "brandy drops." It has been discovered by analysis that half a dozen of these drops contain as much alcohol as an ordinary cocktail. — Ex, His Scheme to Kscape. A prisoner missing at roll call in the Elmira reformatory the other evening was found in the hardware shop, where he had been headed up in a barrel by nnother inmate, and had been placed among a number of other barrels ready for shipment. The Republican State ticket, one of the best ever presented for the support of the people of Pennsylva nia, appears at the head ol our editorial column. It will stand be fore the people practically unmatch ed in point of ability, and its popu lar acceptance will be attested by a majority approaching, if not exceed ing, two hundred thousand. Ex-County Commissioner, S. Iv. Meßride of Canton, was among the jourt visitors in town the early part }f the week. Ram was here as a witness in the Geo. Weaver vs. H. VV. Front/, case.

Mr. Henry Uptnan of Laporte, is he owner of a clock, one hundred |-cars old. It was invented by Eli Terry and manufactured by Ellsha of New Hartford, Con. The >ntirc works of this old relic is made >f hard wood and is a curiosity, ilenry sa\ - s it keeps the best of time md that he would not part with it or love or money. Pittsburg has a curious case of capital punishment on her hands for cttleinent. A murder h under entence of death. As Pennsylva iia has not substituted electricity or the rope and noose, tho prob em is how to shuttle him oft, bc ause lie has a silver tube set in his hroat to relieve a case of throat ulting.

A few wild strawberries have been plucked from the fields by Young America. lleury Upman, some fow years ago purchased five lots on West Main street. When he purchased them they were a bed of rocks, hut licnry was determined on having a home there and went strictly to work building stone fences and to day he owns one of the neatest little homes in our borough and we will wager our last year's straw hat that he has the finest garden in town.

Coxey, Carl Browne and Christopher Columbus Jones were brought into court at Washington Monday afternoon of last week for stepping on the grass at the national capital, and senteuced by Judge Miller. The court scored the prison ers severely and gave them each twenty days a tine of five dollars. When the evening train on the L. & M.was going down the mountain on Friday last, a large grey owl flew from the woods in front of the en gine and attempted to flit down the track ahead. But the iron horse was too swift for him and he ended the race by banging violently against the window of the cab. Engineer Spence took him in, but he died fore the train reached Montrose on the return trip. The bird measured four feet two inches from tip to tip. Mr. Spence will have it mounted.— Montrose Republican. County Superintendent, F. W. Meylert, will address circulars to the several school directors of the county this Friday, containing school statistics and items oF general in terest relating to the work of the year just closed, and also whatever suggestions concerning the work of the coming year as may be consider ed of value in advancing the cause of education within tho county. The pamphlet will uo doubt be read with interest by our school directors and the suggestions advanced by Mr. Meylert given duo notice. County Supt. Meylert is giving all of his time to tho advancement of our schools, and our directors should not hesitate to give liim all the aid possible. An interesting atlair took place at Gallagher's Cafe on Monday even ing. Two strangers entered the dinning room and called for lunch, and while partaking of turkey they earnestly and quietly talked over old matters. Like Jack in the box one of them sprang to his feet and said "I ought to give you a whipping for the money you have cost me" and made a dive for his man, who darted around the room at a two forty gate and proved to be too much on loot for his antagonist, as he dashed out the side door into darkness un harmed and where, we presume he breathed much easier. The fracas com* ing to suddenly caused quite a sensa tion in the cafe and made lots of fun for the boys. U 11.1. WIN l.\ A man. Hut it is watted from Fishing j Creek valley that Charles 11.

The Murder Theory IN Being Freely Dlncussed. District Attorney Gilmore was in Watson town Saturday attending the adjourned meeting of the House-, knechl coroner's jury. The jury, after retiring for a short time, re turned "that after viewing the body aud from the evidence produced be fore them, the said Isaac Houses knecht came to his death from some cause unknown to tho jurj'." There are several suspicious fea tures in connection with the afiair that are to be investigated by the Lycoming County authorities. It is said that at the post-mortem ex amination on Huseknecht's body the lungs were found to be collapsed. If this is the case the man must have been dead before he entered the water. It is further said that when the roll of paper money was taken from Houseknecht's pocket it was found that the innermost bills of the roll wero dry. It is claimed that if the body had been in the water from the time Houseknecht disappeared this money would have been saturated. The silver money was untarnished. It will also .be remembered that several shots were heard on the night of Januarj' 27, and that House knecht's overcoat was found hang ing on a fence post near the river. All these facts seem to place the "accidental drowning theory" in the back-ground. However, the case will be given strict attention by the District Attorney, although the task will prove an arduous one.—Ex.
