On NAV II last tho dead body OF I.eanter
Pasco, a constable OF Thurman. Warren
County. \. V. was found by the roadside
near Creek Centre. He had been shot in the
head with buckshot by a conct aled ASSASSIN.
The motive was evidently revenge, not rob-
berry. Pnaco was nbont sixty years old. a
qunrrclsome man with an uuRoveruable TEN.
per. aud believed to have been guilty Of
many crimes He lived in a neighbor-
hood thick with feuds and notorious
for crimes OF every description. Five days
after the murder Gal Wood. son -in-law Of
the murdered man. was arrested. and on
May 20 confessed that he murdered the
old mau and .' could not help it," George
Pasco. son Of LeRnder. and Lyman Wood.
brother Of the murderer. were arrested ns
accessories. Bad blood had existed between
the Wood and Pasco families for several
years. but the imm' dlate cause OF the mur-

Paaco had that day trodden upon two set
ting goose nests filed with choice eggs and
belonging to Cal Wood.
Woods trial came oil at Caldwell. Sept.
and continued until Sept. 10, when a YER

Description of n "Whaleback.o -

A correspondent gives the following
description of "whaleback."
The ships are the invention of Captain
M'Dougall, Scotchman, who has been
navigating the great lakes for many
years past. These "whalebacks," as
they are expressly called, are shaped
like boiler or cigar. When loaded
the mass of the vessel is nearly sub
merged, only turret supported on pill
lars remaining above water, from which
turret the ships are navigated by the very
limited crew required. Masts and sails
there are none. The vessels are "copper"
ated' three or even four together, the
engine power and u portion of the cargo
being in the steam barge, the three con-
sorts which are towed being clear of all
machinery, and are loaded down to the
thwarts with wheat, coal or other cargo.
These four vessels can together carry
some 10, 900 tons Of wheat with draft
of less than fourteen feet.
The advantages claimed for these
"whalebacks" are briefly these: Q) An
economy of forty per cent. in cost of
construction; (2) a saving at the same
rate of speed of nearly sixty per cent. in
horse power, 800 horsepower and two
boilers doing the work at present done
by 2,000- 0-horse- power and six boilers with
all the resulting economy in space for
coal, etc. (3) almost entire freedom of
rolling and pitching in stormy seas; (4
great carrying capacity with light dis
placement. The ships are equipped
with powerful steam pumps, and should
they encounter extraordinary rough
weather the bulkheads between their
double keels are filled as if in water bal
lasting, and thus loaded down to the
point OF submersion. - Picayune.

An Extraordinary Scene.

A very curious spectacle was to be
seen on the outskirts of Gainesville last
week, says Jacksonville Ella. letter to
the Atlanta Constitution. Alachua lake,
a sheet of water from ten to fifteen miles
in length and covering some forty thous-
and acres of land, is no more. On it's
banks were lying thousands of dead fish; !;
dead alligators fioated ghastly in pools of
black water, and the atmosphere was
heavy with noxious gases. Men and boys
were there in throngs, crowding around
the pools left by the receding waters,
and with hoes and rakes dragging to
shore hundreds of fish which had sought
their depths for refuge. The waters were
fairly alive with their struggles for ex-
istence.
Except for small stream known as
Payne's creek, flowing from Newman s
lake into the Sink, the two main basins
of the Sink and few stagnant pools, no
water is now to be seen where a few years
ago steamers were plowing their way.
This is the second time since 1928 that u
similar occurrence has taken place. AT
that time, the earliest year in which
there is any record of that part of the
country, the bed of the lake was a large
prairie, Payne's prairie, having in it u
body of water called the Sink and small
creek In 1868 heavy rains filled up
the prairie, but the water disappeared
after short time and the prairie was
again dry land. In 1873, after n series
of heavy rains, the Sink overflowed and
the creek swelled to the dimensions of
lake Durinp several ypnrs the waters

One of Natures Wonders.

A remarkable freak of nature is found
among the hills of Delaware Co., n. Y,
in sunken lake covering about three
acres of surface, which lies between two
parallel ridges not far from New York
Ontario 4 Western Railroad. The whole
surface of the lake is covered with u
thick growth of moss, whose stems ex-
tend to an unknown depth, but certainly
further than the arm can reach. Each
tuft of the moss is of different color
from its neighbor, so that the surface
looks like that of beautiful colored car
pet. In walking over the velvety sur
face the foot sinks down few inches
without encountering the water, which is
at least two feet below the surface.
Near the shore, in a few places, the water
comes to the top. The buried pond is q
wonderful natural curiosity Detroit

To Start a Balky Horse.

The following suggestive directions for
the treatment of balky horses are recon-
mended by the New York Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals:
l. Pat the horse on the neck; examine
the harness carefully, first on one side
and then on the other, speaking encour-
agingly while doing so; then jump into
the wagon and give the word go; gener-
ally the horse will obey.
2. A teamster in Maine says he can
start the most balky horse by taking him
out of the shafts and making him go
around in circle until he is giddy. If
the first dance of this kind doesn't cure
him, the second will.
3. To start balky horse, place your
hand over the horses nose and shut his
wind off until he wants to go, and then
let him go.
4. The brain of horse seems to enter
tain but one idea at a time; therefore
continued whipping only confirms his
stubborn resolve. Ii you can by any
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1891-09-10

means give the horse new subject to
think of, you will generally have no
trouble in starting him. A simple
remedy is to take couple of turns of
stout twine around the foreleg, just be-
low the knee, tight enough for the horse
to feel it, and tie in bow-knot. At the
first cluck the horse will generally go
dancing off, and after going a short dis
tance you can get out and remove the
string to prevent injury to the tendon in
your farther drive.
5. Take the tail of the horse between
the hind legs, and tie it by cord to the
saddle-girth.
6. Tie a string around the horses ear,
close to his head.

A Parrots Remark.

There is u parrot in st. Louis which
exclaims whenever man enters the
room: you're drunk, sir, and had better
go away. l don't want to see you till
you're over it," People wonder how the
bird "catches on" but the explanation,
says an exchange, is simple; it doesn't
know how to say anything else, and of
course in making the remark to every
man it occasionally gets near home. One
gentleman who called thought it was the
lady of the house speaking, and rushed
out of the parlor. She sat down to write
note of explanation to him, when to her
amazement servant brought her note
from the gentleman she was writing to,
in which he stated that he acknowledged
with humility that he had perhaps taken
too much wine with his dinner, but he
had hoped, on calling on her, that she
would not have detected it. AS she had
done so, however, he offered his most ab-
iect apologies aud u prayer for forgive
ness.

Its pretty big story. but it's true.
and the minister will tell you 80. It's
about Deborah, the minister's cat.
She was a very large tabby, with
three white stockings, two green eyes,
and o wise old head.
Once upon a time Deborah had six
little blind kittens, snd they and their
mother lay fast asleep in a round bas-
ket behind the stove in the minister's 3
study.
Deborah was sleeping so hard that
when Mr. Neal, the milkman, came into
the room she only pricked up her left
ear and then went on snoring. She
did not know that Mr.. Neal had come
to borrow her to kill off the rats..in hi,
house. Indeed, she did not know
that he had any house. or any rats,
either. He lived mile away across
the plain, and she caught her rats
nearer home.
But Mr.. Neal knew all about Debo-
rah. He hadlnot for years sold milk
ct the parsonage without hearing what
famous mouser she was; and he said
now to the minister:
Good evening, Mr.. Fem. I've call
ed this stormy night to ask II you'll be
kind enough to lend us your catr'
Certainly" answered the minister,
laying aside his pen; "only you'll have
TO take her family. too"
"Of course" said Mr.. Neal; "and
I'm glad she has the kittens; they will
keep her happy"
Mr.. Neal had brought great strong
bag, and by the help of the minister
he put Deborah into it-basket, kittens,
and all. She tried her best to get out
but Mr.. Neal tied up the bag and held
it firmly while he walked TO his
wagon. There he dropped the bag
into box that stood under the seat,
and fastened down the cover. Then he
drove away.
"Poor Deborah can't see where che
is going any more than her blind kit
tens san," thought the minister, with
little smile, as he turned from the
window. Il hope she won't be home
sick, for I'm sure she could never
find her way home. Why, why, the
ground is getting really white with
snow!"
Presently lie sat down again to his
sermon, and he wrote, and he wrote
till everybody else in the house was
asleep. ALI at once he was startled by
sound from the porch. It was the
mewing of O cat. He threw open the
door, and In ran Deborah, carrying in
her mouth kitten.
Dear me. Deborah. can this be
you?" he cried, in great surprise.
She dropped the kitten on the rug
at his feet and ran out before he could
close the door. He put the little wet,
cold kitty on warm cushion, and
went to bed; but he was awakened
from his first nap by another mewing
on the porch. Deborah had come with
her second kitten. An hour or two
later she came with the third, and by
the next noon she had them all home
all six of them.
Soon Mr.. Neal followed, bringing
the empty basket.
| II thought must return it quic ky.
or Deborah would come for it." said
he, laughing. aYou may tell her that
I've bought rat trap, and I'll never
disturb her again. A puss that will
travel eleven miles in the snow for the
sake of getting her family back to its
old corner deserves to live in peace"
Now, isn't this q pretty big story
I shouldn't have dared to repeat it if
the minister hadn't told it to me him

Ones.
