 About aH Extra Session.

The KentuckIan Says No One Can Tell
 AboutaB Extra Session.
 WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-Both Senator Carlisle and German are here to-day. Senator Carlisle denies the story that he is booked for a Cabinet place, and no one here seriously considers him in any of the slates.
 Senator Carlisle, in talking about an extra session, said. "No one can tell what will be done in the matter. It is too early to predict either way. There are other measures besides the tariff which may cause the new President to call an extra session. What is done by the coming session ofsCongress will de- termine what the President will have to do.
 "We cannot tell now whether the Sher- man Silver bill will be repealed, whether the tariff bills which have passed the House will become laws and what the condition of the Treasury may be on March 4. so you see it is a question for serious consideration and cannot be set tied at once or at the present time."

 Or dollars mould our fate, Matters not to the woman true
 Who rules her home in state; Enthroned in the heart of her family,
 She at her best is seen, For one and all acknowledge there
 She is mother, wife and queen. When sorrow comes we seek her,
 If in pain we find relief, From her counsel and her wisdom, Expressing the honest belief That every family ought to know What we would teach every mother To keep in mind this evident truth, Nugent's Cough Syrup is UNLIKE ANY OTHER.

They Were Sentenced.

The Italian consul at Philadelphia
has obtained copy of the verdict of
April IA, in the trial of Bevivino and
villella, accomplices of "Red-Nosed
Mike" in the murder of Paymaster Nc
Clure and Hugh Flanagan, near Wilkes
Barre. The Italian jury, notwithstand-
ing the absence of witnesses, who, being
Americans, for one reason or another
refused to personally appear and testify
in the case, admitted the completely of
the two men, who were therefore SEN
fenced, Beyivino to twenty years and Viii
leila to fifteen years at hard labor. An
appeal was forwarded to the supreme
court by the two convicts, as well as by
public prosecutor. A verdict issued with
out any oral testimony and in the native
town of the accused for crime commit
ted abroad is, in the opinion of the con-
sui, very good evidence of the imparti-
ality of Italian justice and he thinks it
ought to be appreciated in the country
where the crime was committed.

A few years ago an advertisement ap-
peared in the papers stating that for 81
a recipe would be given for the perma-
nent cure of stammering. When the
dollar was sent a recipe was returned
which read "Keep your mouth shut" ."
In another instance an advertisement
recited that for so cents recipe would
be given for catching all the fish in any
given body of water. When the 80 cents
was sent recipe would be returned,
telling the victim ito dip all the water
out and then pick up the fish.
Another form of fraud is prepetrated
by means of advertisements so worded
as to mislead the public. Persons an
swering them think that for 20 cents
they are to have watch or some other
valuable article, when in fact they
merely get an illustrated catalogue. An
extensive fraud has recently been
carried on by persons presenting them
selves as commission merchants or pro-
duce dealers who send out circulars and
price lists, offering prices higher than
those ruling in the market. These
dealers have desk rooms in shops or
saloons, and the goods shipped to them
are received and sold at any price
obtainable, no returns whatever being
made.

Not Generally Known.

The Shickshinny Echo says: A law,
not generally known, and one that should
be of interest to farmers in this state,
was enacted and approved by Ex-Gover-
nor Hoyt in 1879. The law is to the ef-
feet that any person liable for road tax,
who shall transplant to the side of the
public highway on his own premises,
any fruit, shade or forest trees, shall be
abatement of his road tax, one dollar
for every four trees set. AS the season
for transplanting trees is at hand it
might be well to hunt this law up and
derive some benefit from it.

out plugs, foot of hose or even water
pressure Pine Knot Hill would have
been a sorry looking sight by Tuesday
evening had not the borough given full
and free use of all it had. That this act
was appreciated may be seen by the
fact that petition for annexation was
eagerly signed by the property owners
this week. The movement in the Points
is progressing slowly but surely, and it
is likely that the two sections will make
their entrance to the borough at the
same time. South Heberton is rather
backward in knocking for admittance,
although number there are willing to
push the matter if some one starts it
going. That end is also rapidly building
up, and it would be advisable for its
residents to make the necessary pre-
parations to come in with the west and
south sides.
