OF INTEREST TO GUNNERs.
4 Novel Set Of Rules as Compiled By .
Western tIO,ci Keeper.


Western iIo,e, Keeper.
An enterprising landlord of western
hostelry, which Is located in one Of the
game sections, has posted set Of rules
In each room. which are full Of meat,
and he who can't see the point should
have his gun taken away. The rules
are as follows:
Always keep your gun loaded.
Always keep your gun cooked.
II you are with others, be sure that
the muzzle of the gun points toward
one of them.
In getting over q fence, climb over
first and pull your gun after you, muz-
zle foremost.
When you see a suspicious movement
In the bushes fire at once. 1t may be
one Of your comrades; but you may not
hit him, and you cannot afford to lose
any chances of game.
II shell should miss fire, get one of
your friends to look down the muzzle
Of your gun while you try again. He
may be able to see what Is the matter.
In case of kicking gun hold the
stock about four inches in front Of your
face. In this way you are farther away
from the kick than If you held the gun
tightly to your shoulder.
In boating for ducks. rest your weap-
on muzzle downward. 1t IL expected
that you know how to swim should the
gun go Off and blow hole through the
boat.
Always go on the supposition that
your gun isn't loaded. In case Of doubt
you can easily ascertain by pointing 1t
at the nearest man and pulling the
trigger. Should the man show perfora-
tiOns after the experiment you may con-
clude that 1t was loaded. but you may
always say you thought 1t wasn't.

experience as captain.

experience as captain.
Says the Wilkes Barre Leader: "The
Scranton Tribune, in telling how
strong their team is ON paper, rather
assumes that the pennant will fly from
Slocum Hollow pole at the end of the
season. 1t says: Scranton Is predict
ed safe on pitchers for reasons that
are perfectly plain and acceptable.
johnson. Brown and HOrner are not
experiments, II such may be stated on
the record Of any pitcher in a preced-
ing year. That McDermott does not
release Herr. Cronin or Stemmell indi-
Gates that all three are worthy Of fur
ther trying. 1t certainly does not in
dicate that they are all weak. as each
had better than an ordinary pedigree
before being signed 1t Is true that
johnson, HOrner and Brown are not
guesses, but when compared to Keen
an. Coakley and Meekin they lose their
lustre. Meekin was not a wonder last
season, but his reputation will bear out
the assertion that he Is very fast. Then
Scranton Is not a sure thing anywhere
compared with the Wilkes-Barr
team" The Wilkes-Barre writer cam
not write truthfully. The Tribune has
never assumed nor hinted an opin.
ion that Scranton would win the race.
We have said that the team Is strong in
every department except at short and
irst and believe II these positions are
occupied by average Eastern league
material that Wilkes Barre will march
behind Scranton In the procession at
the end of the season. We are open to
criticism and respect the opinions of
other writers, but. mercy sakes, stop
lying.

Cure is taken internally, acting di-
