WISE WORDS

To bear disappointment bravely is to
disconcert the fates.
Every woman is as old as the neigh
bors remember she is.
Mingle folly with your wisdom, or
nobody will associate with you.
We are well balanced when our wills
can control our prejudices.
Faith is higher than reason, as 10y
atty is finer than investigation.
The geniality of some people amounts
to positive blemish in character.
Look before you leap; otherwise you
won't recognize yourself afterward.
Originality consists mainly in not
saying the things which everybody else
says.
Stupid people rob us of time and
temper, but clever people go away load
ed with our ideas.
When girls clever tongue keeps her
from marrying, it Is because she has
not yet met her equal among men.

Luzerne County Politics.

From the Nanticoke News.
At the Republican headquarters in
Wilkesbarre the campaign managers
are putting up a great bluff so far as
harmony in the ranks of their party and
the probable success of their party is
concerned They dare not deny but
that the courthouse ghost is looming up
against A. D. Hay in greater proper
tions every day; the over-contidence fad
has struck John NJ. Jones and those
who were concedng the latter's cleo
tion from the start do not feel so conf
dent now. There is such a thing as
being too popular, especially when
man is running for office, and we are
afraid that this fact will be clearly
demonstrated in the case of Phil Raub,
the Republican candidate for sheriff.
The Bob Robinson collar is not helping
John Mainwaring and the Fourth legis-
lative district is likely to roll up a
big majority for Lubrecht. The Shaw
neeite may be compelled to bite the
dust on election day.
Another proof of the weakness of the
Republican ticket is the appealing COM
municatlons which appear frequently in
the Wilkesbarre Record. There is no
harmony in the Republican ranks; there
is an undercurrent which is liable to
come to the surface at any moment and
the ticket will suffer considerably in the
effort to oust Bob Robinson.
The contest for commissioners prom
ises to bring out some queer deals. In
fact one is already being planned and so
determined are some of the manipula-
tors that they are not making any great
efforts to conceal their actions.
That Finn will be elected no one
doubts. The great powers that were
behind his nomination will not leave
anything undone to elect him. OF
course every effort will be made to elect
his colleague too, as there is vast diff
ference in minority and majority
commissioner. The incest contest will
be between Hay and Koons; here is
where the courthouse plans will cut the
greatest figure.
1t is long time since the political
situation in Luzerne county was so
evenly balanced as it is at present.
Had the Democratic boss and his pur-
chased followers nsed the least diplo-
macy on September IL, Luzerne county
would undoubtedly be in the Democratic
column once more after November 7.

HUMOROUS SQUlBS.

The apparel of the small boy is al
ways suit for damage.
It's one thing to have an idea and
another to carry 1t out.
No man ever has to feel ashamed of
the company he keeps out of.
Seven days make one week-but 1t
often takes more to make one strong.
Some men give according to their
means and others according to their
meanness.
Politeness pays as rule, yet many
a man has lost heavily through civil
action.
Patent-medicine men fill their alma
macs with ancient jokes to show their
skill in prolonging life.
A woman seldom objects to SELF
made husband unless he insists upon
her wearing self-made dresses.
A rural exchange says: "Silver Is
less valuable than eggs" Perhaps 1t
is, but pocket full of the former
causes less uneasiness than the same
quantity Of the latter.

not as handsome as painted, but their
faces are somewhat human-like," In
1878 there was a manatee at the Lon
don Geological Gardens. 1t would not
eat thing but lettuce, and this had
to be of the French sort. Inasmuch
as 1t consumed one hundred pounds a
day the beasts board bill was pretty
steep.
Two species of fishes found in the

Unlike the other big sea turtles, the
loggerhead is carnivorous. With Its
powerful jaws it easily cracks the shell:
of large conches, eating tie meats
of those mollusks. 1t feeds on crab:
and shellfsh of all sorts.
The green turtles are the ones thai
are chiefly sought with decoys of the
kind previously described. they some
times weigh as much as 1000 pounds
and their flesh is one of the most priz
ed of table delicacies. Living in deer
water, they feed on sea pla4ts.
After browsing on these ocean pas.
lures they go to the river mouths fol
baths in fresh water, which they seen
to need from time to time.
A curious discovery was the fact thai
he fish in Porto Rican mountain
streams live in caves and holes in the
rocky banks, and cannot be caught, BY
traps or otherwise, in the current. This
is not on account Of timidity or wari.
ness, as in the case of our brook trout
but because OF a peculiar necessity
which compels the fish to hide itself.

Gold Democrats Coming Back.

One of the most significant recent
utterances bearing upon the present
tendency in this country to Imperialism
and militarism was made on Tuesday
night of last week before the National
Civic Club in Brooklyn, by Edward M.
Shepard, Gold Democrat and leader of
the Independent Democrats of that city
who for several years have made it i'm
possible for the regular organization to
have its way there. His subject was,
"The Duty of Democrats to Their Par
ty." He said
Democrats of all shades of opinion,
from those Of our great ex-president to
those OF Mr.. Bryan, have sounded one
note, Every day the popular vision be-
comes clearer. The issue of military
imperialism dwarfs all other political
issues now before the American people.
We do not, like the Republicans, put
our "Vicars" of Bray into the White
House.
AS between President Mckinley, who
voted for free-silver coinage when the
popular tide seemed to run that way,
who in 1896 down almost to the last
feared to pronounce the word gold" lest
he should ALLEVIATE some popular sup
port, and whose belief in silver or gold
seems to depend upon his estimate of its
effect upon the fortunes of his party or
himself, as between the president on
the one hand and, on the other hand,
Mr. Bryan, with his devotion to prin-
cipe when it stands and must stand
completely in the way of the success of
his own legitimate ambition, l do not
think high-minded men will long hesi-
tate as to which, as politician, de-
serves the greater respect.

1T was that wretched black and

out of the parlor and Eddie found him

Why, what Is the matter, Hattie?" for
Mrs. Spreadbrow had dropped into

weeping piteously.
"I-I-pm sorry. Ple-please for

ment, indignation, scorn and pity chas-

she slipped down beside the distressed

hands said simply:

But, please, next time you miss any

She could not refrain from this mild

other painful memories as welfare
fast fading into oblivion.

A SONG.
BY ERNEST A. NEWTON.


There's a sweetness in the air
When the sun is low,
And the sky is flushed and bare,
And the light winds blow;
While the shadows come and go
AS the night doth fall,
Along the misty moor land where the
curlews call.
There's a lady full of grace
Whom l loved of yore,
knd the lovelight on her face
Shineth evermore;
And | long as heretofore
For the night to fall
Along the misty moor land where the
curlews call.
Dear love, can l forget
Through the flying years
Thy face amid the fret
Of their pains and tears;
Nay, my heart remembers yet
When the night doth fall
Along the misty moor land where the
curlews call.

PORTO Rlco's QUEER FISH.
Curious Specimens Brought Back by
Uncle SANS Fish Experts.

Porto Rico's queer fish, sea turtles,
deep sea clans, oysters, devil fish and
"mermaids' is the subject of a most
interesting report just made by the
United States Fish Commissions ex-
pedition, which was sent to Porto Rico
to investigate its aquatic life for Un-
Gle Sam. The steamer Fish Hawk,
having on board the Government fish
scientists, led by Professor w. Ever
mann, brought back $50 species of fish,
many of them new to science.
In Summer there is a great abund-
ance of huge sea tortoisesjn that vicin-
ity, especially about Culebra Island.
Decoys are used to take them-i. e.,
counterfeit turtles cut rudely out of
thick board and anchored out Some
times, indeed, picture of a turtle is
simply painted on the upper side of a
large piece of plank, and the latter is
set afloat Evidently the big marine
tortoises, some of which weigh 1000
pounds apiece or more, are remarkably
stupid creatures, inasmuch as the males
take the decoys for females and seek
them so persistently that they can
hardly be driven away. They are Sc
cured by passing nets around them in
the water.
A kind of devil fish of a most ugly
sort was found. A sword fish with
monstrous fin extending straight up
from its back and feelers reaching far
beneath the body was added to the col
lection of freaks.
Another odd fish found by the Gov
ernment fish hunters was the bat fish.
Oysters are plentiful, though small,
being of a different species from the
bivalves of the Atlantic coast of the
United States. They are very good to
eat, but 1t is doubtful if the fishery for
them will ever amount to much COM
mercially. Small round clans were
brought up by the dredges in consider
able numbers from a depth of forty
fathoms, or 240 feet. They were of a
species distinct from ours, and were
found to be not edible.
No Holsters like ours seem to occur in
Porto Rican waters, but there is a So
called "spiny lobster" which is eaten
by the natives. 1t attains a length of
about eighteen inches. Blue crabs are
extremely plentiful about the island.
There are lots of fresh water craw
fish. Some day these crawfish may be
exported in quantities to the United
States, for they are very delicious;
but they have to be tightly packed for
the journey to prevent them from
turning on their backs, else they will
work their feet until exhausted, and
so die. The Porto Rican crawfish gets
living by impaling small fishes and
little frogs on its "tusk," as the horn
between its eyes is called.
There is no fishery for the manatee
in Porto Rico, though specimens of
that huge marine mammal are some
times seen in the tidal rivers. The
creature is a near relative of the ex-
tinct rhytina, or sea COW. 1t attains a
length of eight feet and a weight of
nearly ton. Columbus saw several
specimens on his voyages to America,
and in his writings he spoke of them as
"mermaids." He said: "They are
