SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.

Hazleton, Pa, July "a.
EDITOR TRIBUNE.-I have read your
pertinent paragraph on Congressman
Hines airing himself at Socks pond, in
stead of being at the national capitol
working for the passage of beneficial
legislation. After all there is nothing
surprising in this. Hines is apparently
carrying out a campaign promise. You
probably recollect that the editor of the
Hazleton Sentinel said some time ago
that our immaculate William received a
campaign contribution from the office of
A. Pardee & Co. in 1892. Is it supposed
that this Republican corporation helped
to elect him for the purpose of reducing
tariffs, or voting in favor of labor legis-
lation? If, as l am informed, the tariff
on pension medical examiners has been
advanced to $500, he beats any Republi-
can congressman the district ever had as
a high tariff advocate. Don't be too
severe on him for keeping his promise,
for from all | can learn it is the only
one. Matthew Long.

Three Men Drowned at Plymouth.

A boat load of nine men capsized in
the river opposite Plymouth about l
O'Clock on Tuesday morning and three
of the men, who could not swim, were
drowned. A picnic was held during the
afternoon and evening at Hanover park,
and John Richards, William Thomas
and Shadrack Lewis, of Plymouth,
started from their homes to the park
early in the evening, crossing the river
in boat. About midnight they started
to return, and at the rivers edge met
six Polanders who asked to be taken
across.
The boat could easily carry nine men,
so all stepped in, and the three Ply
mouthites were at the oars and made
good progress until they got about the
middle of the stream, when two of the
Polanders tried to exchange seats. They
stood up and the boat tipped slightly,
whereupon the other Polanders became
frightened and all jumped up, capsizing
the boat, which filled and Immediately
sank.
Lewis, Richards and Thomas could
swim and started for the shore, but the
agonizing screams of the Polanders staid
their progress and each man turned back
and tried to save one of the struggling
Poles. In the darkness it was impossi-
BILE to see how near the shore was and
each knew he was taking fearful risks,
but that did not deter them, and they
boldly grabbed man apiece. The
Poles had hold of each other and it was
difficult to separate them
Finally, after a fearful struggle, the
three each got man, and with great
trouble managed to make their way to
the shore, leaving the three other Po-
landers, whom it was impossible to save,
to 60 down to watery grave. The
bodies of the victims, John Syalunas.
Michael Salendiz and Frank Malsotiz,
were recovered the next day.

Fakirs in the Tolls.

The horde of fakirs that follow every
circus swept down upon the town like
buzzards yesterday. Until about 1.30
O'Clock they piled their various sorts of
"skin games," and several hard earned
dollars glided from the pockets of their
victims into the fakirs' wallets. Finally
a warrant was sworn out by Burgess
Mclaughlin, and the police arrested
Walter j. Cathrell, of Pottsyille; Frank
Lease, of Scranton; Albert Gray and
Thomas Loughran, of Hazleton. They
were taken before Squire Buckley on
the charge of gambling and given a
hearing.
In default of bail they were committed
to the county Jail, but before the arrival
of the 4.30 train for Wilkes Barre they
procured bail and were released. -

Travel Stimulated by Electric Roads

Dy Elcctr1C Roads.
From the Hazleton Sentinel.
The travel between this city and Free
land has increased wonderfully since the
electric road connects the two places.
The Lehigh Valley Railroad, previous
to the opening of the electric road, sold
on an average nearly 700 tickets month.
The electric road stimulated and en-
couraged travel between the two towns
and now it is nothing unusual for the
electric cars to carry more passengers in
day to Freeland than the Lehigh
Valley carries to that place in month.
Now people from this city and South
Side towns 60 to Freeland who never
thought of going before, while there are
countless numbers who go "iust for the
ride" The convenience and the saving
in fare has created this increase in travel
on the electric road, and the most san
guine of minds never thought there
would be the present large and constant
travel between the towns.

rOR OUR CANINE PETS.
e SAT- Water Bath Once a Day Dur
inp the Summer Months.

4 SAT- Water Bath Once a Day Dur
ing the Summer Months.
The practice of clipping long
haired dogs in hot weather is not al
together agreeable to their owners.
It is supposed by many to be q neces-
sity, for dogs whose hair is so thick
that it is practically fur coat are
apt to become SO overheated that
the skin grows tender, and they de-
velop a trouble similar TO mango, an
exceedingly difficult disease to cure
in old dogs-those we love the best.
Those familiar with Atlantic City
must remember the remarkable Irish
settlers, little more than stray dogs,
which preempt beach parlors and
sheltered hooks along the board
walk, and are pets with all the Wis
itors. These animals never suffer
from the troubles common to long
haired dogs kept in the city, and in
auiry at other seaside resorts has
resulted in confirmation Of the
opinion concerning the efficacy of
salt baths.
But apart from the expense, it is
often inconvenient, if not impos-
sibIe, to send a dog to the seaside.
The owner of a Scotch collie tried
the experiment last year of giving
her dog salt baths athome. She be-
gan early in June, and continued al
most every day until the middle of
September, and with the extremely
gratifying result of saying the ami
NAL from the yearly trouble. He
objected strongly at first, but soon
enjoyed the douche, and would beg
for it ahead of time on a hot after
noon The method used was to put
the dog into a tub of water nearly
cold, in which a handful OF roclsalt
had been dissolved, rub him thor
oughly, and then throw buckets of
salt water over him as be jumped
out.
A precaution frequently disre-
garded by those who make pets Of
dogs without understanding much
about them is being careful about
their meat. It should be as fresh
and free from taint as would be
served at your own table. The finer
the breed of dog the greater the i'm
portance OF this precaution. The
meat should be trimmed carefully so
that no dark bloody portion will
taint it. Stick sulphur placed in
the drinking water also helps to keep
the animal in good condition.-Har-
per's Bazar.

Won MIR. Chi!ds' Praise.

Of the late Martha G.. Kimball,
who first suggested Decoration day,
George W. Childs once remarked:
''She has done more good deeds and
said more kind words than any
woman l have ever known"
The Philadelphia Ledger tells this
story to illustrate her power and in
fiuence in the cause of right: 1t is
related that after the battle of Win
chester Gen. Sheridan, riding up to
the front and noIing the demoral-
lied condition OF Gen. MollineauX 5
command, sharply reproved that
officer before his men.
Mrs. Kimball had nursed Gen.
MollineauX after he had been wound
ed in previous battle in the per-
formance of brave duty, and, go
ing to Gen. Sheridan, she said:
You have done a great wrong to a
brave man" With characteristic
gallantry he replied: MADAM, if I
have done SO, | will apologize to him
before his soldiers, and he did that
and more, recommending Mollineaux
for major gen eralship, which was
promptly awarded HMM. Y. Trib-

AN ELECTION BET.
Controversy Over Suit OF
Clothes Reaches the Supreme
Court.

In the year 1888 William H. Rade-
baugh, who represented the firm OF
Cannon, Radebaugh & Co, on the
road went to Canal Winchester to
sell goods. While there he solicited
E. G. CLANCY to buy a suit of clothes
and in the deal CLANCY alleges that
Radebaugh offered to make him suit
of clothes if Harrison did not carry the
state of Ohio by majority of 10000.
The election resulted in plurality OF
something over 1900 and the clothes
in the meantime were made and seat
to CLANCY. A bill was sent 10 him
sometime afterward for $50 but he
ignored it, Suit was brought against
him by the Lancaster firm sometime
afterward in Il Justice court but CLANCY
won as he did also in the common
pleas court. When the case was
taken to the circuit court the Ian
caster tailors won the suit and nov
it has reached the supreme court.

Hyp0criticai Cant.

The unanimity with which the Re
publican speakers and newspaper;
Join in denouncing the new tariff law
forces us to the conclusion that there
must be something wrong on one side
or the other.
Hon. Tom Reed OF Maine denounces
the new law because of the sugar
schedule.
The Republican newspapers gen
orally say this is not the bill pro
missed by the Democrats and we are
grieved beyond consolation when We
contemplate their short comings.
The calm of both speakers and
papers is wholly hypocritical and
dishonest.
The Mckinley law did not give
the people free sugar by any means.
1t gave free the raw sugar purchased
by the refners Trust, and left the
masses to the mercies of that corpora
ton.
Every Republican politician and
Republican paper in the land, from
members of Congress to the editors of
the Hooking Valley "alilkes," stood
like stol.e wall against any change
or modification of the Mckinley law,
and predicted that dire disaster, to
the business OF the country, would
follow any change in its provisions.
This being true the complaint
coming from them is the very essence
of check.
Democrats, some of them, may
complain that the Senate Substitute
docs not go to the length that they
desired, or expected, but for Mckinley
howlcrs to take up the cry is too
much like parent gloaiing over the
funeral of his own offspring.
1t is a virtual acknowledgement,
OF their part, that the Mckinley law
was a sad failure and ought to have
been never enacted.
If the latter proposition meets their
views, We agree with them, for as a
measure It was the worst failure of
our national existence, and was purely
pap-producer for trusts and com
bines and the country has been forced
torlnjnto dtbi eyer since Its passage.
As revenue measure the new law
will be found so much better that
c mparisea will he next to impossible

WASHINGTON ETIQUETTE.
The interchange of Courtesies Be-
tween Ministers and Senators,

Inc interchange or COurteS;eS Be-
tween Ministers and Senators.
The wife of new senator once
told me, says a writer in Kate
Fields Washington, that she was
determined to make no social mis-
takes, so-wise woman that she was
she asked Senator Edmunds,
whom she knew was thoroughly
conversant with every detail Of Of
fetal etiquette, by reason OF his
long career in the senate, if it was
not incumbent upon her to make
her first visit to the wives of for
eign ministers. He replied:
Certainly not, madam; q SEN
ator never makes the first visit
upon q foreign minister r."
So, thanks TO her good sense in
consulting an old senator, this lady
did not make the mistake that a
few less wise senator's wives have
done Of making first visits when
etiquette required that they should
receive them. Of course, as the
senate has increased in size the last
few years, it can hardly be expected
that foreign ministers should call
upon all new senators, but they
ought to upon the old ones, and
upon others whom they wish to
know. l think the charming wife
Of one Of the diplomats has adopted
very wise rule, as she remarked to
senator's wife to whom she had
just been presented: Il know it is
my place to call upon senator's
wives, but l wait until 1 meet them,
and I shall now give myself the
pleasure of calling on you"
If the ladies of the diplomatic
corps would follow the lead of this
popular lady they would avoid some
of the mistakes that they now make
in our official etiquette.
