THE ol-growing industry is an important one in this section. Two years ago, after four years of Demo- cratic misrule, this industry was ruined. Immediately after the elec- tion of Mckinley the business began 10 revive and today the wool grower is prosperous, both wool and mutton bringing satisfactory prices. It Is the Mckinley brand of prosperity and the wool growers will continue to use the Republican brand.

THERE is no more effective way 10 ipjure the business of mining than by selling worthless mining stocks or worthless mines or by selling mines or stocks at sums largely in excess of their value, says the Mining Reporter. He who aids in such sales, or who practically endorses such sales by keeping quiet when it is his duty 10 tell the truth, is an enemy 10 the best interest of honest miners. An indi- vidual perhaps may be excused for keeping quiet about such things on the ground that it is not his business, but this excuse cannot be made for q newspaper which endorses q known fraud by it's silence. The newspaper derives it's support from the public and owes to the public it's best effort to protect their interests.

JURY rs STILL DEADLocKEp
No Word Received from Them Dur
ing All of Yesterday.

Not a word was heard yesterday
from the deadlocked Joyce-City OF
Scranton jury. They made no request
to be discharged and the court showed
no indication of any intention Of call
ing them in. Judge Archibald, who pre-
sided over the trial of the case, when
asked il he proposed to let the jury
fight it out, said "They may as well
settle it as any other jury" This
would tend to indicate that the judge
will keep them together until they
agree. Up to adiourning time, yester-
day. the jury had been out fifty-three
hours.
L. S. Williams had no cause to COM
plain of the action of the jury in his
case against John A. Mears. He sued
for s295S1. The jury yesterday morn
ing came in with verdict in his favor
for S349.9S. BY what process of reason
ing they arrived at this figure does not
develop. 1t is likely that the defense
will ask for a modification Of the ver-
dict.
In the case of the Scranton Knitting
company against John J. Howley, the
jury returned verdict for the PLAINTIFF
in the sum of Si042.

The annual state convention OF the
Young Women's Christian association
convenes next week at Pittsburg. This
is the first time the Pittsburg associa-
tion has entertained the state conven-
ton and they are doing everything in
their power to make it pleasant oc-
casion. AS they have had the national
convention, they can well manage this
state convention.
Miss S. L. Pence, their president, is
business woman of great ability, and
a most congenial companion, whose
travel and conversational powers make
her welcome wherever she goes. And
her earnestness and conservation, as
well as social influence, have made the
Pittsburg association one of the largest
and best in the country.
Mrs. +. T. Pierson, the general Sec
retary, is a most attractive woman, Of
unusual executive ability, and very
popular musician, being the leading
singer in the quartette choir of one Of
the largest churches in the city. Her
assistant secretary is Miss Adams, a
graduate of Cornell university and of
Gordon's Bible institute in Boston.
Some of our Scranton friends met her
at Christmas time, when she visited
our secretary, Miss Savage, who is her
intimate friend.
Several will go from Scranton to the
convention. The members of the state
committee will go Wednesday. Mrs.
Ripple, the president of Scranton asso-
citation, with several delegates will go
Thursday. All delegates will be met at
their trains if they send word before
hand. They will be furnished with
delegates credentials by calling at the
rooms. Any members who can go will
be very welcome to join the party, or
to come on at any time. If arriving
unannounced or at a late hour in
Pittsburg, they will have no difficulty
in finding the association building, 100
Fifth street, near Penn avenue. And
as there is a boarding home in connec-
tion with it, they will be accommo-
dated until assigned to the home of
their hostess.
The Scrantonians will meet old
friends there, as Miss Mary S. Dunn
and Mrs. n. A. Lowery are both on
the programme, and Miss Hays will
be there. Among the speakers on the
programme are Rev. Cornelius Woelf-
kin. of Brooklyn; the international Sec
retaries, Misses Tayler, Wild and
Rouse; Misses Stover and Mechling
secretaries of Williamsport and Wilkes
Barre: Misses Kirk and Hanna and
Mrs. Wilbur, of leading colleges of the
state; Mrs. Wadhams and Miss Ben
net of Wilkes Barre, and other asso-
citation workers.
Those who are mentioned as prob
able Scranton delegates are Mrs. II.
NJ. Boies Mrs. Z. II. Ripple, Mrs. II.
j. Carr, Mrs. L. a. Watres, Mrs. N. F.
| Rice, Mrs. B. T. Jayne, Miss F. Nc

RATTLEsNAKE MAN DEAD.
Old John c. Geer Traded in Reptiles
and Had a Cure for Bites.

John C. Geer, by profession a catcher
and tanner of rattlesnakes and the dis
coverer of an alleged infallible cure
for the bites of poisonous reptiles, has
just died In Pike county. He was
eighty-five years old.
In his early years Geer was a Della
ware river raftsman. He lived in a
wild and mountainous part of Sullivan
county, where rattlesnake dens were
many, and from boyhood it was his
delight to make raids on them in the
early spring, when the first warm days
caused the snakes to crawl out on the
lodges to sun themselves.
Later, he found 1t a profitable busi-
ness to extract the oil from the snakes
and sell it to the druggists for medici-
nal purposes. He also made a business
of catching the snakes alive, and for
years found a demand for all he could
capture and ship to the New York
market. At one time he shipped sixty
four rattlers in a dry goods box to
Prof. Worth's museum in New York
city. One of them bit the professor on
the thumb. He was taken to the
Chambers street hospital, where he re-
mained six weeks. He came out with
his life, but minus thumb.
In the last few years Geer's business
of shipping rattlers was broken up.
The shipments became so common that
the trainmen objected strongly to
handling the strong boxes in which the
snakes were confined, being fearful of
the result in case of accident Their
remonstrances brought about an order
for the agent to refuse to receive the
reptiles, and, although Geer protested
vigorously and offered to give bonds
to cure, free of charge, any one bitten
by one of his snakes, the railroad offic-
ials refused to withdraw the order.
Geer threatened to appeal to the inter-
state railroad commissioners. but final
ly gave up the business in disgust. He
continued, however, to sell the oil
skins and rattles of the snakes.
Once, with two assistants, he caught
| thirty-two rattlesnakes, ranging from
three to five feet in length, in day.

DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES.
Delegates to Mondays City Conven-
tion to Be Selected Today.


Democratic primaries will be held in
the city districts today between and
7 o'clock p. m, to select delegates to
Mondays convention. In nearly every
ward there is a stiff fight on between
the representatives of the leading
mayoralty candidates, Hon. John T..
Roche and II. j. Jennings, and in
number of wards a three cornered con-
test is in progress, with p. j. Nealis'
men, or free lance would-be delegates
as the third corner.
Yesterday brought forth no new de-
velopments There was a rumor afloat
to the effect that there was a move
ment to make Colonel Herman Os-
thaus the mayoralty candidate and Mr.
Roche the candidate for treasurer, but
the Roche men, when questioned con-
cerning it, pooh-poohed the idea.
The fact that Mr.. Roche and Mr. Jen-
nings used especial care to select as
their candidates for delegates men on
whom they could place the greatest re-
lance, makes II more than likely that
any ticket having anybody else as can
didate for mayor will win but little
consideration in the convention.
Up to yesterday, L. ]. Robinson, who
is most frequently mentioned for the
treasurership nomination, had not in
dicated that he would accept a place
on the ticket. c. r. Pitcher, w. A.
Wilcox and Esdras Howell still con-
tinue to be talked of for the nomina-
tion for controller. The scramble which
marked the fight for the assessorship
nomination on the Republican side is
totally lacking among the Democrats.
In such OF the odd numbered wards
as have not yet held caucuses, nomi-
nations will be made for common coun-
ell and ward and district Offices.
