A CONVENTION OF WHALES.
Curious Sight Witnessed Off Santa
 Catalina Island In the Pacific.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
 The residents of the island of Santa Catalina witness some strange sights in the course of the year. People on the beach are sometimes bombarded with flying fishes that jump out of the water when chased by the tunas, and a few days ago a school of large squids dashed in, leaping upon the beach and filling the water with their ink. It is supposed that the squids were trying to escape the orcas.
 The orcas Is a whale about thirty feet in length, entirely black with the exception of pure white collar and saddle. It has teeth and it is so active that 1t chases seals and sea lions out of the water upon the beach, and it has actually been known to snatch a sea lion from the rocks. This season whales have been particularly common here, and recently vast convention of them was observed at the entrance a collision with one of them.
 These whales have way of collect ing together" said the captain of a steamer, land for what purpose l do not know Several years ago when I was running small yacht they gath cred at deep bank to the southeast of the island. I went out to them number of times, and they stayed so long that excursions were run out to see them. It was a wonderful sight. I can't say how many whales there were. There may have been nearly hundred, or possibly fifty, but enough to keep the deep water over that bank boiling.

 Chief Austin refers to his raids on gam bling houses run In the name of literary
 clubs: He says: Tt is an impossibility to
 break mp gambling as long as the State
 of Alnbama licenses these people by is-
 suing them charters; but by raiding these places often I have made the gambling
 fraternity live hard and kept them from robbing and making criminals of a great many of our young men. I will continue
 to break into gambling houses (when I have reason to believe that gambling is
 going on) just long as the law forbids and l nm chief of police"
 The chief makes a special report on Sun day violations and asks that the Sunday
 laws be so changed that neither saloon
 men nor clerks may cnter their places of business on the Sabbath day. The report states that monument will soon be erected over the graves of the policemen who were killed on duty During this year J. F. Richey. an ef- fiicent patrolman. also died. Mention is
 made of the Police Relief Association. Quite enthusiastic comment is made on | the construction of the Boys Industrial School by the women of the city, and also of the work being done by the Mercy
 Home. The suggestion that Girls In-
 dustrial School also be constructed was
 made in the report. The work of the Hu- mane Society was also mentioned. The report was concluded with the fol-
 lowing detailed statement for the past year:
 Amount of fines and fees assessed
 during the year ...... ...... M .ss9. .s5s 90 Amount of fines and fees collected 23, 1S7 40 Amount remitted by Mayor ...... 16,721. 50 Greater part of fines remitted

Clear Creek Letter.

Editor Pressi-
T. Dixon is on the sick list; better at
this writing.
What objection can the people have to
Mr.. Hall for Supervisor? A man that can
attend to his own affairs so ably as he,
can surely be trusted to administer for
the public.
Mr.. Isaac Ostrom, whose pleasure it is
to carry the school children to and from
school, can truly echo the old saying, with
slight change, sweet Friday night, but
sour Monday morning, these days of mud
and rain.
Mark Wright had the misfortune to
nearly sever the first finger of the right
hand, while using a shredder last week.
No, he had plenty of corn stalks, and
says he believes they are better than fin
gers for steady diet for cows Mutt
lated finger doing well under Dr. He'll
mans treatment.
Emporium's loss, Clear Creeks gain.
Our new neighbor, Mr.. and Mrs. Cava-
naugh-we find them very pleasant and
congeniaI people, and bespeak for them
kindly welcome by all their neighbors;
also glad to report the convalescence of
their little daughter Irene, from severe
attack of scarlet fever.
Charlie King is a hustler, sure. In
one afternoon and evening he filled an
ample ice house with ice, and now his
slothful neighbors are inviting themselves
over to eat ice cream next summer.
Chas. believes in never putting off till to-
morrow what may be done to-day. An
example his neighbors now wish they had
followed.
You had our sympathy, Miss Evers,
this afternoon when we saw you start on
your long, muddy walk downward. If
Clear Creek could boast Of one young
gent he would have been at your service,
of course. That valley teeming with
so many good things for the comfort of
our guests, and bankrupt in this is our
misfortune not our fault.
"Hoity, toity!" Stirred up nest of
hornets here, in mid-winter. What do
we know about politics; better stick to
our suffrage hobby, and muddy coffee.
Ha, ha! Sold, my friend. We are no
advocate of female suffrage. Just step
in some morning and take breakfast with
a farmers wife; you will find her coffee
amber clear, and of her own brewing; and
we will try to find a salve for the sore
corn we tread on in our late letter, and
for desert an apology will be relished by
your scribe.

The Day After Election.

From the Hickory Ridge Missourian.
Floored!
Knocked outin the second round!
Mckinley and the dinner pail
got there.
Gosh! Didn't they paste it to us
everlastingly!
'Twasn't our fault, though.
Hickory Ridge done noble.
Bryan said he was bound to win,
and we bet on his judgement.
And it cost us the best squirrel
dog in the whole State by jocks!
AS we go to press the news is
that everything has gone Republi-
can except h-ll and Texas.
For President 1904, Andrew
Jackson, of Tennessee. We've got
to get back to the old landmarks or
we'er wiped out.
We acknowledge serenade by
the Republican Marching Club with
a brass band last night. 1t was
darned poor music, but we suppose
1T was the best they could do.
Thanks.
We are in favor of recognizing
the Democratic party or abolishing
the whole shooting match. When
it's got so that we haven't any
principles of our own, and have to
take them second hand from lot
of Kansas and Nebraska cranks and
granddady longlegs with yellow
hair and their pants in their boots,
who don't know anything but free
silver and calamity hooting, it's
time, by jingo, to call q new deal!
We're tired of holding the sack for
Republican snipe hunters. It's
going to be a blamed long, cold
winter for us this year. Wood,
coal and corncobs wanted on sub
scription, and wanted right now!

modesty but cannot conceal his joy and
pride at being papa of pretty little
daughter.
AS the licenses expire this week, our
hotels will be "dry" until new papers
are issued, but the liars club and zabo
band are laying in stock so the drought
will not be severe one.
Isaac Barber has migrated again and
this time with Oklahoma as his objective
point, and if big trout and spike horn
bucks are abundant there, he says he
will stay year. Ike is at home with

Oakley, of Westfeld, Tioga county, to
Miss Minnie Cloutz, of this place and on
Jan. 9th, VIM. S. Swartwood to Miss
Christine Lloyd. Cupid is now, after
a couple of new victims, the fate of
whom | hope to write up later on.
That Sinnamahoning correspondent
for the Philadelphia North American is
evidently the possessor of a very fertile
imagination or else had been indulging in
a new brand of spiritus fermenti, as that
"write up" of the pedestrian club of this
place clearly shows. While no such club
as the one referred to exists in this town
That scribe evidently belongs to the fa-
nous G. l.. G. For pure and adulter-
ated rot that article takes the cake.
