The Hotels at the County Seat are
doing it "land office" business this
week.
Dr. M. E. Herrmann is a good,
clean man; vote to send him to the
State Legislature.
Co. Snpt. M. It. Black, held special
examinations at the County Seat,
Friday of last week.
Mr. Jas. C. Deininger, of Hones
town was calling on friends in town
Friday.
Mrs. Ilotcnstein from Cuba, and
Miss ltuth B. (iumble of New York
City, are the guests of their brothers
Messrs. Lewis and John Oumhl", of
this place.
Hon. K. M. Dunham has made an
able and efficient officer. Vote for
him and good administration.
Christian Heinze of Shunk, who
was injured hy being thrown from
his huggy while driving to Forks
ville, about six weeks ago, died Sun
day morning at the Willinmsport
liosqital where he had been taken
for treatment. Mr. Heinze was a
respected citizen in the community
where he lived, and his death is
deeply regretted.
John W. Martin of Dushore, was
seriously injured last Sunday while
out driving. The king-bolt of the
buggy broke when the front wheels
separated from the vehicle, throwing
Mr. Martin out and breaking his
left shoulder, also badly bruising his
face.
Tetanus, caused from wounds in
dicted last fourth of July, taking all
the cases reported so far, resulted in
10.") deaths. This is better than a
year ago, when 115 persons were
killed through the toy pistol in our
foolish and homicidal method of
celebrating the Fourth of July. A
year ago Pennsylvania furnished
eighty-two of these cases, or just one
fifth. This year it furnishes seven
teen or one-seventh—in both eases
more than any other state. In no
other is the celebration of the Fourth
so widespread, so foolish or so fatal.
During Atty. E. J. Mullens add
ress to thejury in the murder trial
Wednesday afternoon, Henry Hun
singer who was seated in the audi
ance,interrupted by speaking loudly
and wtts immediately ordered before
the Court. Judge Wheaton fined
him ten dollars for contempt of
court, luit not consenting to pay the
fine, was placed in jail to a
fen days sentence. The following
morning, however, he was discharg
ed by the court, without complying
with the sentence.
Forty desertion iuses in Luzerne
County ami -•'> in little Monroe were
the record of two courts which open
ed Monday of hist week. The dis
trict attorney of Monroe County is
ungallant enough to place the blame
for this.state affairs upon the wives,
whom he thinks are too much in
clined to boss their husbands. A
little consideration on their part, he
declares, would greatly lessen the
number of unhappy marriages.
Persons who believe in luck and
signs will doubtless agree that it is
unlucky to be struck by lightning
on Monday, or take hold of a circular
saw in motion on Tuesday, or tumble
down stairs with a coal skuttle on
Wednesday, or be hit hy a trolley
car on Thursday, or fall over-board
on Friday, or marry on Saturday, or
he one of thirteen to dinner on Sun
day when there is only food for ten.
To prove that base ball is of Bib
lical origin, an exchange quotes the
following: The devil was the first
coacher. lie coached Eve when
she stole first. Adam stole second.
When I sac met Rebecca at the well
she was walking with a pitcher.
Sampson struck out a good many
times when he beat the Philistines.
Moses made his first run when he
slew the Egyptain. Cain made a
hase hit when he killed Abel. Ah.
raham made a sacrifice. The pro
digal son made a home run. David
was a long distance thrower & Moses
shut out tile Egyptains at the Red
Sea. Surely it is a Spiritual game.

GRANGE-I DEALS.
Womau'H Province In the Work of
the Order.
Upon one of the great towers of the
Triumphal bridge at the Pau-Auierlean
exhibition I saw this Inscription: "A
republic exists only In the Integrity
anil education of Its citizens." This
motto could well be placed in a con
spicuous place in every grange hall,
for never was there expressed more
comprehensively and yet so briefly the
very essence of grange thought and
grange aspirations. An order that
strives for and whose every teaching
Is toward the improvement of its mem
bers is worthy the attention of every
person who has a desire for the good
of his country and the perpetuity of
the republic we are so proud to call our
own.
That its teachings and associations
tend to Integrity and improved moral
atmosphere Is evidenced by tbe large
and important place that is so ably and
sacredly tilled by woman In our Order.
Her presence is a standing and force
ful protest against vulgarity, intem
perance and all evils that are likely
to receive encouragement in congrega
tions of men. The placing of woman
upon an exact equality with man dem
onstrates the fact that the grange rec
ognizes Justice and Is willing that
the world should know that true pub
lic integrity demands the thought, the
patriotism, the higli ideals, of all its !
citizens, be they male or female.
In education the grange gives the
of every session to work and ad- j
. vanceuient in this line, and that grange '
does the most for itself, its members ;
and the community which gives the i
most thought and extends the greatest .
effort along educational lines.—Secre I
