TO HUNT IN ALASKAN WILDS
Rare Arctic Animals the Quest of an
Oklahoma Professor.
Frofessor G. W. Stevens, teacher of
natural sciences at the Northwestern |
Normal school at Alva, Okla., is pre- :
paring togo to Alaska on a six months'
expedition to make a collection of j
fauna for the school's museum, says a
Guthrie (Okla.) correspondent of the
Kansas City Star, lie expects to get
leave of absence for that period, and
if the board of regents should be un
willing to make an allowance for his
expenses be will bear them himself.
Trofessor Stevens has been studying j
the flora and fauna of Oklahoma for
pears and has established the nucleus
of a museum at Alva. It is his inten
tion to proceed soon to Alaska and go
by boat from Fort W range 11 up the i
Stinkine river in search of Stone's i
black sheep, a newly discovered spe-
Mes, which is both rare and valuable. ;
It is iron gray in color and belongs <
to the bighorn family.
His next journey will be to Cook's j
inlet for Kadiak bear, single sped- j
mens of which sometimes weigh 1,600
pounds. Several weeks will then be
spent in gathering eggs of arctic birds 1
and specimens of the smaller fur bear
ing animals. About Sept. 1 Professor .
Stevens will start for the Alaskan '
peninsula for moose and caribou, leav
ing the country before be is shut in by
winter.
It is hoped that his collection will be
af such value that the state may give j
!t the same kind of support that Kan
sas has given to the work of Professor ;
Dyche.

THE SUMMER VACATION GUIDE.
TIK- summer vacation is the bright spot in the dull routine
of the year's work. It breaks the monotony of the daily round,
and cheers and invigorates for the strenuous life ahead.
America abounds with delightful summer resorts in val
ley, on mountain, and beside the sea. The Atlantic coast line
from Labrador to Cape Hatteras contains the greatest number
of resorts devoted entirely to the pursuit of pleasure and health
in the world.
One may purchase from Pennsylvania Railroad Ticket
Agents, excursion tickets to over eight hundred of these re
sorts. covering all the desirable places, from the rock-bound
bays of Newfoundland to the gentle, sandy slopes of the Vir
ginia beaches: from the White Mountains of New Hampshire
to the Cumberland Mountains of Tennessee; iti the wilds of
Canada, along the shores'of the [St. Lawrence and the Great
Lakes.
The famousseacoast resorts of New Jersey—Atlantic City.
Cape May, Wildwood, Ocean City, Sea Isle City, AsburyPark,
Long Branch, Spring Lake, Seaside Park. Beach Haven and
others, so well known that description is superfluous—are
among the most popular and the most easily accessible resorts
in the country.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Summer Excursion Book, to
be obtained of Ticket Agents at ten cents a copy, or of the
General Passenger Agent, Philadelphia, by mail postpaid for
25 cents, describes them all and gives the rates and stop-over
privileges allowed on tickets.

as a parting shot said:

DIETRICH CASE
GOES TO LUZERNE !
i
Continued from Ist Page. I
to secure a lair trial iu Montour oouu- <
ty. <
Paul Knoch, shoemaker, added his -
testimony to the foregoing to show 1
that Peter Dietrich could not obtain a
fair trial iu this county.
John Brngler was sworn. He has
heard the matter discussed to some ex
tent,probably by fifteeu or twenty per
sons. The preponderance of scutiiuent
seemed to be against the defaudant.
The unfavorable opinion, tiie witness
thought, would operate against him
gettiug a fair and impartial trial.
W. H. Auimerman W»B called. His
testimony was indeutical with Mr.
Brugler's.
Dr. I. G. Barber was sworn. He has
discussed the matter in every district
of the county. He nowhere found any
"prejudice against the man, personal
ly, although his act was condemned. "
There is a wide spread public feeling
that Dietrich ought to be punished.
This, he believed, would influence the
[ selection of a competent jury. During
the last few weeks he had fieard a j
number of our best citizens declare
that there ought to be a change of
venue,
Christopher Loeh and Peter Snyder
were called who testified to the same
facts as the preceding witnesses.
COMMONWEALTH WITNESSES.
At 11:40 o'clock the Commonwealth
opened. A number of witnesses were
heard. Each testified briefly and there
was no cross examination.
J. E. Moore was the first witness. j
He declared that he does not know of
any undue excitement nor prejudice
against Peter Dietrich that would pre
vent him from securing a fair and im
partial trial in Montour county.
Joseph R. Patton was sworn. He is
well acquainted throughout the coun
ty. He does not believe that there is
any deep-seated prejudice against the
defendant that, would prevent him
from securing a'fair minded unbiased
jury.
Samuel Bailey was sworn. He testifi
ed to facts along the line of the pre
! ceding showing that there is nothing
jto indicate that Peter Dietrich can
| not secure a fair and impartial trial in
this county.
j F. G. Schoch was called. He knows
; of no reason why Peter Dietrich should
! not be tried iu Montour county. He
gave it as his opinion, that there were
enough good and true men in the court j
house at that moment to assure him a;
fair and impartial trial.
Peter J. Keefer was called. By vir
tue of iiis position as superintendent
of tlie water works and of sewers lie
comes in contact with large numbers
j of people. From what lie has gathered
iu hearing the case of Peter Dietrich
discussed he knows of no reason why
the defendant should not secure a fair
and impartial trial in Montour coun
ty-
Sam A. McCoy was sworn. He knows
of no reason why the defaudant should
| not obtain a fair and impartial trial.
Post master W. L. Gouger was call
ed. He testified to the same effect &s
the above.
Thomas J. Rogers, and A. B. Rus
sell had not heard the matte' discuss
ed to anv extent and declared that they
saw no reason why the defendant could
not secure a fair and impartial trial.
Justice of the Peace W. V. Oglesby
gave it as his opinion that a fair and
impartial trial could be secured for
the defendant in this county.
Officer John Grier Voris, T. J.
Price, Amos Vastine, T. W. Barthol
omew. D. R. Williams and Col. A.
!J. Frick testified in conclusion, each
j holding that from what he had observ
led the defendant could secure a fair
and impartial trial here.
MR. HERRING'S ADDRESS,
i Upon reconvening at 1:30 o'clock
Mr. Herring at once began his argu
! meut In succession he took up the
i various points brought out by the
j testimony, which, in his opinion,
1 showed that a change of venue should
!be ordered. In paying his respects to
the Commonwealth's witnesses he ad
mitted that rhey were truthful, higli-
I minded men,but thought they were per
sons absorbed inM>usiness affairs,who
mingled but little with the masses;
therefore, he held, they were hardly
qualified to judge as to the prepouder
| auce of sentiment and whether not the
defendant could secure a fair and im
partial trial iu this couuty The most
of them, lie reminded the court, ad
i mitted that they had heard the sub
ject but little discussed. Mr. Herring
especially emphasized the point that
Peter Dietrich could be tried in au
; adjoining county at a less cost than in
j Montour. In any of the other coun
ties. he declared, the single panel of
jurors would be sufficient. Mr. Her
ring at times grew very eloquent. He
spoke uutil aout 2 :'.'o, when Mr. Hin
ckley immediately followed.
MR. HINCKLEY'S ADDRESS.
Mr. Hinckley spoke for over half au
hour in his usual forceful and impas
sioned strain. He reviewed in detail
the testimony of both sides and insist
ed that not a single fact had beeu
bronght out that would show that the
defendant could not secure a fair and
impartial trial in Montour county.
Court on convening at 10 o'clock
Tuesday morning ordered a change of
venue iu the case of Commonwealth
vs. Peter Dietrich. The rule granted
on the 9th iust. was heard on Monday,
when a large number of witnesses were
heard on both sides.
The case will be taken to Luzerne
county for trial. It will come up at
the September term, which begius the
third Monday of the month. Judge
Evans yesterday stated that he thought
it would probably be arranged that the
Dietrich case should head the list.
There are four judges—Lynch,Halsey, I
Fuller and Ferris —in Luzerne county i I
and there is no telling which of these
may try the case, if any of them. It
frequently ocours that Judge Staples
or some other jadge from outside the
county is called into preside at court.
A short time before the opening of the
term the defendant, Peter Dietrich, |
will be removed to the Luzerne conn
ty prison.
The jurors comprised in the special '■ (
venire, 175 in number, called for the I (
Dietrich trial, will not be needed ow- ,
ing to change of venue and it now de- |
volves upon Sheriff Williams to serve
notice upon each of them not to api |
pear at the next term of court.
THE COURT'S DECREE.
Commonwealth vs. Peter Dietrich. !
Rule to show cause why venue should
not be changed :
The act of March IS, 1875, provides
that a change of venue may be made,
"when upon the application of a de- j
fendant in a felony it is made to ap
pear to the satisfaction of the court
that there exists in that county so j
great a prejudice against him that he
; cau not obtain a fair trial ''
t Upon the hearing of this rule a large j
number of witnesses testified that they
had heard tiie matter widely discussed
and that there exists so much prej-j
I udice against the defendant in this I
county that he can not übtain a fair ,
trial.
An equally large number of witness- !
j es testified that he could obtain a fair
| trial in this county, though they per- 1
j haps had not heard the matter as wide
|ly talked about as those who testified
< that he could not obtain a fair trial.
; If there is a doubt as to the guilt of
the aocused in a criminal trial the law
requires the doubt to be resolved in |
j favor of the accused,
j We have, therefore, concluded to
j order a change of venue in this case.
And now, May lit, 19CS, rule made
absolute, and it is further ordered ad- j
judged and decreed that a change of !
venue be granted in this case and that
the record is ordered to be certified to
the court of oyer and terminer of Luz
erne county, Pennsylvania, with in
structions to proceed as if the indict
ment had been originally found in said
county, said proceedings and trial to
jbe at the expense of the county of
Montour.

GRUESOME FIND
ON MOUNTAIN
Hanging to a tree near the'montain
path leading from Natalie to Hickory
Ridge, near Shamokiii. the body of a
young n,an was discovered Monday
morning by breaker boys on their way
to work. Investigation revealed that
the remains were those c f Michael
Uoher, who came to that section from
Johnstown one week ago.
Uoher, who was bat 18 yean, of age.
secured lodging at a liome in Natalie
and worked at the Hickory Rid ge col
j liery. Sunday evening he went up
stairs and threw his clothing and valise
from a window, then came down and
I stretched himself on the front porch.
| His landlady counseled him togo to
bed. but the youth was sullen and
| shortly afterward left the house.
That was the last seen of him alive.
When the breaker boys made the grue
| some discovery Monday morning they
notified colliery officials, who in turn
communicated with Coroner Dreher.
Ho went at once to the scene and aft
| er viewing the body directed that it
bo cut down.
; A search of the soicide's clothing
revealed that he had no money, but
| money order receipts showed that he
had sent about SSOO to his father in
| Poland. Men who worked with Ucher
during the past week state that here
i marked several times that his father
was c oming to visit him but that the
parent would never see him alive.
Just what cause he had for the rash
act is not known.
A brother resides in Johnstown and
a telegram lias been sent to him, tell
ing of the suicide. If he will not take
charge of the body it will be shipped
to Philadelphia for dissecting pur-
I poses.

r fiemarKable Story cf Faithful Dog,
112 Erastus O. Dunkle, who lived a
e Jersey Shore, and died about six
L , months ago had a largo white dog, a
cross between a bull and a hound.
a The faithful canine seems to have
his late master in mind all the time
and when seen going about the streets
u °f that town he presents a downcast
0 appearance. But the strangest part of
his actions are his daily visits to the
1 Rfave of Mr Dunkle, where he spends
the greater part of his time lying up
on the mound of his departed master.
It is known that the dog spends en
tire days mourning his master's de
parture in this fashion, and only goes
after something to eat or drink when
! extreme hunger or thirst drives him
away.
