Farm Notes.

B. w. Lewis of Riverside four years
ago planted one oat grain. Each sue
ceeding year he has planted the product
of the previous season. This year from
the product of that Of last he raised Is =
bushels of oats, ohreshers' measure. This
is a record that seems worthy of recording
and remembering.
A Journal man greatly enjoyed re-
cent trip through the farming town of
Clinton, and few notes that he took
may be of interest to the Journal S
readers. Hon. Daniel Game, who is one
of the largest farmers in the county con-
tinues to devote his attention especially
to the growing Of hay for the Boston
market. He has farm of about 600
acres and of this nearly 400 acres are in
tillage and pasturage. He formerly
seeded down with grain but has con
cluded that he gets better results by
blowing in the fall and seeding in the
spring without grain. He cut the past
season in the neighborhood of 500 tons of
hay. He keeps for stock, horses, oxen
and COWS and about 100 sheep. Another
prosperous farmer William Caine, has
fine farm lying along the Kennebec river.
He cut rs tons of hay the past summer,
harvested 496 bushels of oats, 40 of
barley, 200 bushels of potatoes, had four
acres of sweet corn and be sold this year
hay to the amount of 5000. The farms
of the Stewart brothers, f. II. Gerald, r.
b. Abbott, the Rickers, the Lowe farm
and many others are among those that
make Clinton one Of the fiji est agricul
tural towns in New England There are
no abandoned farms in town nor COM
planning farmers If they have any
complaint to make it Is that crops have
been too abundant this year to be as
profitable as they had hoped. Wherever
one goes in this thriving town there are
evidences of improvement in farms and
farm buildings. New land has been taken
UP and the old fields seem to have re-
newed their youth.

The graphing operations now going on
at Moosehead lake for the recovery of the
body of Kenneth Taylor of Boston, who
was drowned ON October H. are costing a
lot of money. For most of the time
twenty-three men and two steamers have
been employed and Sl75 per day is being
expended in the efforts to recover The
body of Taylor Besides the intense desire
of tho relatives to obtain the body of the
unfortunate young man that it may
receive proper burial, the fact that Taylor
carried an insurance of S36, 600 on his life
operates to stimulate the searchers. The
scarchers are nearly discouraged, but
operations will be kept up until the lake
closes unless the body is recovered before,

BURLESQUE ON TRILBY.
1t Was Seen at the rockingham Thea,er
Last Night


Last Night
The majority of those who witnessed
the production of "Thrilby" at the
rockingham last evening are still ask
ing themselves whether their evening
was thoroughly enjoyed or not.
The reason for this condition may be
found in the construction of the bur-
lesque. The skit was written for New
Workers and those having it in charge
have not seen fit to season it to suit the
general palate. 1t rests too much for a
wide success upon the assumption that
the audience has read Du Maurier's
book and witnessed Potter's dramatiza-
ton thereof.
Last nights cast was eminently COM
petent to interpret a piece of much
greater pretensions tnan "Thrilby."
Amelia Stone has a charming voice. but
wretched method. The vocal frlls in
which she wraps her singing makes it
impossible for us to catch more than the
merest glimpse of the song itself. Miss
Perkins was a buXOm "Thrilby." Liz
zie Derious DAILY was chic beyond eX-
preston in the too-small part of the
Zulu.
Louis Wesley as "Jocko" evidenced
an apprenticeship in the workshop of
knockabout art. That Is high art-at
times. It's accepted name Is ground and
lofty tumblng. Sol Aiken did all that
the part of Spaghetti demanded. Mark
Murphy and willis Sweatman, both
Scranton favorites, can not complain
of lack of opportunities for the display
of their peculiar brands Of histrionic
talents. Both are capital entertainers
Their monologues were good and were
well received by the audience.
Master Roy Sinclair sang two selec-
tions, revealing a voice Of much Sweet
ness and power.

POLITICAL JOTTINGS.

There is n very general demand among
the voters OF the Seventeenth ward to
have j. A. Lansing succeed himself as Sc
lect councilman from that ward and he
Is daily importuned to be a candidate
for reelection. One year ago at the solicit
talon of his neishbors Mr. Lansing con-
sented to become a candidate to fill the
unexpired term of Sheriff Clemons as the
select councilman from the Seventeenth
ward and he was of course elected. He
soon took rank as one of the most able of
the city fathers and his sound views on
all business matters were of great advan-
tage in the discussion of matters of great
Importance to. the city. The experience
with regard to city legislation gained since
he entered the councils will be of great
benefit to him in future and recognizing
this fact the voters of the ward are anx-
ious to see him returned for full term Of
four years. knowing that only their own
particular interests but those of the city
at large viii be in competent and con-
scientious hands.
The Republican caucuses in the two dis
tricts of the Eight ward polled a big vote
considering the rain and the fact that
there was a contest for only one nomina-
tion, that for the common council. The
councilmanic candidates were William j.
Shiffer and T.. w. Zizleman. the former be-
ing nominated by siXty-threo votes in
the First district and iifty-ehght in the
Iizleman. Other nominations were un0p-
posed and were as follows: +. l.. Worm
ser. school controller; Charles q. Carman,
constable, and j. NJ Rose, ward asses
sOr; w. A. Raub and Charles Farber.
judges of election; George w. Schlager
and George Suydam. inspectors of election; ;
w. A. Raub and Harry Poust, register of
voters.
One of the names frequently mentioned
in connection with Republican nominal
ton for city assessor Is that of Charles
Fowler, of the Thirteenth ward. He is a
young man who has exceptional Qualifi-
cations for such an office and would make
an excellent official. Three years ago he
was one of the Republican candidates for
assessor and was defeated by very
small margin. His popularity with the
people was demonstrated at that time and
there Is little doubt that If aaccorded a sec
ond nomination he will prove formida-
BILE candidate.
Daniel II. Kelly has announced himself
as an Independent candidate for select
council in the Nineteenth ward.

GAME ROOSTERS STOLEN.
Found by PatrOlman Block in the
Possession of Three Young Men.

Found by PatrOlmnn Block In tho
Possession of Three Young Men.
Between the dark and the daylight
yesterday morning Patrolman Joseph
Block spied three young men at the
corner of Madison avenue and Olive
street going along with bag In their
possession. He halted them and fail
ing to account satisfactorily for their
presence out at such a time and under
such circumstances, they were placed
under arrest.
The contents of the bag were examined
and 1t was found to contain five game
roosters. Mr.. Block was satisfied that
the trio stole the fowl and ne marched
them along to the station house. They
protested their innocence, but the officer
Informed them II they were not guilty
1t could easily be proved and a little
walk to the lookup would not do them
much harm.
Arriving at the police station the
young men were searched and the old
est had in his pocket a monkey wrench.
This, with the bag Of game, was taken
as conclusive evidence of their guilt
and they were locked up. The one with
the monkey wrench was Jack" Mahar,
OF Oak Hill, Lackawanna township.
and his companions were Conny Fallon
and Ed. Riley, of the South Side.
While locked up FallOn confessed tnat
they had been to Jermyn on an expedi-
ton and had stolen the roosters. Later
in the day the friends of Fal-
lon and Riley appeared and
gave bail for their appearance at the
next term of criminal court. The
roosters are still at the police station
awaiting the arrival of whomsoever
lost them. .lf
Mahar II still at the station house.
John L0ughney, Of Jermyn, called on
Desk Sergeant Deter at o'clock this
