T. f.. Warner doesn't have snakes
very often but he had EN- the other
day. He went to the postottice and
pulled out of his box a little round
box securely sealed and addressed 10
him. Thinking that he was getting
something nice he opened up the box
when out dropped live snake. For
few seconds it was lively IN the
postot1ice. The box was fired one di-
lection and the snake the other. while
Warner went up in the air and recitcd
his Latin studies. 1t is suspected
that Doc Winsloe sent the package
and the suspicion is confirmed because
Doc had important business out OF
town just as the mail arrived. No
deaths have resulted from the joke as
yet.

giving day, ana provide them with sons
OF the comforts of this present life. /

cares that they have not the opportunity
of seeking out and assisting those In tbs
poorer walks of life, would consider 1t a
privilege and pleasure to contribute
something towards making some life
brighter by few crumbs OF comfort at
this time. Donations of food or money to
purchase the same sent to Rev. 5. r..
Pearson, Gopsel Mission, or l25 Park
street, will be most thankfully received

lots along the famous Cape shore. there are
none more advantageous and pleasantly located
than those owned and offered for sale by Mr.. III.

Willard has some two acres of land excelently
situated for the building OF summer cottages.
On Myrtle avenue and Beach street he has ad-
dltional land that some day VIII be covered by

In the distance, these lots are destined TO be oc-
eupied by handsome homes and In no distant
future. Fortunate indeed are those who secure

To man up tree it begins to smell
like there is skunk under some of the
political fences. It is noised around
that Warrey is running Comrade A. R..
Baker for county judge, on the quiet
like. Of course Warrey is afraid he can
not secure the nomination himself and
tits said that it is scheme of his to run
Mr.. Baker-and he be made deputy, or
in other words have Mr.. Baker elected
and Warrey be the whole thing. But
you will see that their little scheme will
get nipped in the bud. If Mr.. Baker
wants the Office he must first prove to
the satisfaction of all; his relations to
Warrey. The Pioneer knows nothing
about the deal, and we repeat only what
we have heard, but it will do no harm
to probe into the matter a little. Mr..
Baker is alright, but Warrey has fed
at the county crib long enough.
