been worth several hundred dollars. It
was of the finest leather, deliberately

Two Wellsboro gentlemen secured a
fine trout one day last week in pc
culiar manner. While on a fishing trip
up Strait Run they heard a tremend-
GUS splashing in one of the small pools
of the stream. and upon investigating
they discovered a large trout between
the jaws of a huge water snake. The
snake had seized his prey just back of
the head and the trout was struggling
desperately to escape. After watching
the strange sight for few minutes the
fishermen released the trout from the
snakes jaws, both the fish and the
snake being too exhausted from their
struggles to escape. The fish was still
alive, but it's back seemed to be
broken, and while the gentlemen were
examining their capture the snake
slid under the bank and disappeared.

FELL 200 FEET.
Armour Institute Student Loses His
Life in Colorado.

Loveland, Colo, Aug. 5.-Louis r.
Levings, a student at Armour insti-
tute, Chicago, has been killed as a re-
suit of falling from the summit of
Mount Epsilon, in Estes park. The
distance which the unfortunate young
man fell to the bottom OF a narrow
ravine, where his body still lies, was
about 400 feet. During the descent
he struck projecting rocks several
times and was dead before the bot
tom was reached.
According to companion, he
stepped on a rock and thinking it
secure put all his weight on it, when
the boulder gave way and he was
hurled to his death. The young mans
companion got down the mountain as
fast as possible and hurried to a near
by ranch at which place he secured a
horse and rode to Longs Peak inn,
where a searching party was made up.
They found the body in a narrow ra-
vine, where no horse could reach.
The body is in such position that it
will have to be rolled out of the ra-
vine, and this may take two days.

Stroke of Lightning Causes Woman to
Flee From Friends.

New York, Aug. 5.-Thrown into a fit
of asphasia by a flash of lightning last
Sunday, Josephine Donohue of Brook
Ign was found last night wandering
aimlessly about the streets of Hunting
ton, L. l., many miles from her home in
Brooklyn. Meantime the police of Pros
pect park have been dragging the lakes
for her body and a general hunt about
the city had been instituted.
Miss Donohue. who is 3S years old,
was listening to a band concert in the
park, when the storm suddenly broke.
A bolt of lightning struck tree near
by and the woman, leaping from a
bench where she sat with her father,
ran shrieking through the park. She
was soon lost to view and d constant
search during four days had produced
no trace of her. How she reached the
Long Island town is a mystery. From
what can be learned, the woman ran
through the park in the downpour of
rain, boarded a trolley car and later
changed to a steam train which car
ried her far from the scene where she
had been stricken.

The average man who buys cheap
shirts wonders why the sleeves are al
ways in wrong.
CHATS the fault with cheapness, -
said Mr.. Duncan c. Coale, of Newark,
at the Stafford. I'm making up big lots
of cheap shirts the bodies, bands and
sleeves are made in separate patches
One machine, for instance, will do moth
ing but turn out sleeves. They are cut
and sewed independent of everything
else, and afterward put on the shirt
Just as they happen to come out. And
that's the reason your button always
comes around to the inside instead of
where it ought to be. A man who buys
such a shirt ought to take it right back
to the seller as soon as he discovers the
fact I'll warrant you that nine out

Edison Has Completed His New Motor
for Automobiles.

New York, Aug. 5.-In announcing
that he had solved the problem of the
electric propulsion of auto vehicles
Thomas A. Edison took occasion to dis
credit recent extravagan assertions at
tributed TO him concerning an electric
storage battery, which he says he has
perfected. The report said the battery
might run a pleasure vehicle at a rate
of twenty miles an hour for a distance
of $50 miles. The best he Would guar
q tee on a single charge was 100 miles.
THE troubles with the battery I have
been trying for two years to remedy
have been purely mechanical" said Mr..
Edison. 'They have been due chiefly to
the swelling of the nickel element. I
have succeeded in reducing the weight
of the battery to about forty pounds
per horse power. With a proper motor
an wae IN equipment we can take the
cells and operate an ordinary delivery
wagon at IS per cent of the cost of
maintaining a horse"
The inventor said he has worked with
the particular object of applying the
power to auto trucks for commercial
purposes and that he can drive two
ton truck at the rate of thirty-three
miles an hour.

Mr.. Witte Gives Out His Opinion of
the President.

New York, Aug. 5.-Mr. Witte and
Baron Rosen reached the st. Regis
hotel on their return from Oyster Bay
at a quarter after six. Mr.. Witte made
the following statement about the i'm
pressions he had received of the presi-
dent on this the first time he had seen
him:
Il have conceived the highest cpin-
ion of Mr.. Roosevelt. 1 was par
tioularly struck by his energy and
broad mindedness. I feel it is good
for the United States to have so dis
tinguished man at the head of its
executive department, and l fully ap-
preciate the reasons that led to the
choice of him for so responsible and
honorable a post. I do not say this
with any desire to flatter the president
or the American people. 1t is my
sincere conviction"
During his visit to Oyster Bay Mr.
Witte was presented to Mrs. Roosevelt
and conversed with her in French.
