Snake Swallowed Snake.

When the keeper of the snalxe-house
at the Philadelphia zoo counted the
Shiny reptiles in the cage reserved for
the indigo species, he was astonished to
find one missing. He first counted
heads and then, with pole, he sepa-
rated each snake from the mass into
which they had woven themselves, and
still the most liberal application he
could make of his mathematics revealed
but five snakes where, tho day before,
there were six. He went for Supt.
Brown, and that scientist discovered
that the sixth reptile was sleeping his
last sleep In the elongated stomach of
one of his cage mates. Investigation
nroved that the swallower was six feet
long, while the swallowed was five.
Outside Of his increased size the gour-
mand was none the worse for yielding
to his cannibalistic tendencies

OUR SEVENTH YEAR.

With today's issue the TRIBUNE COM
mences its seventh year, having COM
pleted four years as a weekly and two as
asemi-weekly newspaper. The publisher
is pleased to state that its prospects at
the present day are better than they
have ever been before. The TRIBUNE
will continue in the course it has trayel-
ed in the past, and will be published as
clean local paper, ever ready and will
ing to promote the welfare of the COM
munity and its people, Democratic in its
principles, but not the organ or advocate
of worthless men or measuses. Our
party ties are not of such character as
to compel US to support men who are
undeserying or unfit, or who have been
traitors to Democratic platforms.
We gratefully acknowledge the aid
which the local public has given the
paper since its start, and we guarantee
that the TRIBUNE will never fail in its
duty to its friends.

j. C. Weigand, the present efficient
prothonotary, announces that he will
not be a candidate for denomination. In
this we think Mr.. Weigand is attestinp
the good sense he is said to possess. 4
ticket made up of old officials would NOT
be a strong card with the voters, and
recognizing this is probably Mr.. Wei
gand's refusal to run. 1t will require
the strongest sort of ticket to win with
in the coming contest, and the selection
of an entire new set of candidates would
seem to be the proper course to pursue.

All right, stick to the above until
the convention, and let us have a new
set of candidates. But the ticket
must be new clean through. If
Rhone, Garman, Weigand and

1t is fact long since recognized,
but of late frequently emphasized,
that under every test, supreme or
ordinary, the honorable senator from
New York, David Bennett Hill, proves

THE EUROPEAN WAR.
What the Famous Ex-Editor OF La Lam

Henri Rochefort, the celebrated
French journalist, who, since the
Boulangist trials of 1880 In Paris, has
been living in exile in London, has been
talking to an interviewer on the rela-
tions between France and Russia and
the outlook for war In Europe 1.-THE
German wound is not yet healed" said
he, $50 that if war does break out 1t
will probably be on our eastern from

France sought an alliance with Russia

There is said to be movement
under way among a number of
Democrats in this county to allow the
present congressman to be nominated
without opposition, and then "knife"
him on election day. The TRIBUNE
has indirectly been asked to be a
party to such plan, but it is not our
way of fighting in politics. We are
opposed to his denomination and also
to his reelection, and will do all in
our power to defeat him, believing
that Democratic congressman whose
vote for tariff reform must be bought
by having his favorites appointed to
Office is unworthy of the position.

publicans when the tariff bill came

Hines was known to have no
particular love for Kisner, for
the latter has been credited by
the congressman with having
helped to roll up the majority
of 634 votes that Morgan B.
Williams defeated him by in
1884, when they were oppon-
ents for state senator. Hines
at that time, and since, has
been very bitter against those
who contributed to his defeat,
and to the ordinary mind it
must be evident that the object
is two-fold, for some of the let
ters he wrote to his friends at
that time called forth every
thing but blessings upon the
heads of Kisner and others.

PICKED UP BY THE WAY.
THINGS SEEN AND HEARD IN THE
TOWN AND VICINITY.

Matters of Local Nature Written Tn
'Tribune" by the saunterer-something
Here May Interest You.
HaZleton council is looking
about for a better water supply
for that place, and the city en-
gineer has been directed to
make a survey to the Nesco-
peck Ecreek and ascertain the
practicability of procuring
water from there. There is a
large volume of pure water in
both the Nescopeck and Obey
creeks, sufficient to supply the
needs of any city in the State,
and if taken from the proper
point there is not much danger
of it ever becoming adulterat-
ed by sulphur" water from
the mines or otherwise pol
luted. There is danger, how
ever, that possession of it may
be obtained by some enterpris-
ing corporation, and the conse-
quence will be that in the
course of ten or a dozen years
every town in lower Luzerne
county will have to pay more
for water, as the sources of the
present supplies will not give
out enough to meet the con-
stantly increasing demand.
The future supply of water for
Freeland, as we'll as Hazleton,
will undoubtedly come from
the Honeyhole, and the legis-
lators of these two municipali-
ties should take prompt steps
to guard that water from being
controlled by any monopoly.
The selection of E. P. Kisner
as postmaster of our neighbor-
ing city was generally approx
ed of when it was made, but
since the surprise has worn off
there are several who do not
appear to be so elated over the
result as was at first supposed.
The friends of the little con-
gressman claim for him all the
credit of the appointment, but
are unwilling to admit that a
little corporation influence will
be a handy thing next fall.
AS he made no protest against
Mr.. Kisner, it must be conced-
ed that the selection was pre-
determined and satisfactory to
him, notwithstanding the bait
he held for the others to nibble
at. Such being the case a few
of Hazleton's prominent men
would like to know what was
the cause Tor cost of Hines

The defeat he then sustained
was a bitter blow to him, and
though he recovered from it
and afterward reached the
goal, it was understood that he
would repay his enemies with
interest at the first opportunity.
What a grand chance he had
to repay Kisner? His word, it
is said, is so powerful at Wash
ington that the capitol trem-
bles when he protests. Why
did he not speak last week and
dash to the ground the hopes
and ambitions of the man who
worked against him in 1884?
Why? Perhaps | may tell you

For the first time in several
years the Fourth of July has
failed to arouse Freeland's
patriotism to the extent of
having a local observance of
this great holiday. A number
of the societies have arranged
to take part in the celebrations
elsewhere on that day, and out
side of a few sporting events
the Fourth promises to be a
quiet one. However, it cannot
be said that Freeland is negli-
gent in honoring national holi-
days. There is no town in the
state where more attention is
paid to such matters than is
done here, and a Fourth with
out q demonstration of some
kind will be something un-
usual. SAUNTERER.
