Sounds Are Not Spooky.

With deer wandering in the out
skirts of the city, a fifteen-foot
python snake resting on Lambert
street, and a husky-voiced lion wax
ening some of our good citizens with
his musical voice each morning,
Lambertville cannot be said to be
exactly rest cure for THE nervous
minded.
The snake and the lion belong to
Charlie" Tomkins, proprietor of
Lambertville's Wild West, and Tom
kins' pets are resting aslcomfortably
as can reasonably be expected in the
barn belonging to the local Elks,
situate next door to the freight sta
ton of the Bucks County Railway,
on Lambert street.
The snake isn't particularly noisy,
but no one has applied, so far, for
the position of valet. 1t is being
kept wrapped in blankets, and hot
water bottles maintain the temper
allure at somewhere near the tropi-
cal comfort to which his snakeship
is accustomed.
The lion, or lieness appears deter
mined to stand for its own rights,
and when it isn't fed at the precise
moment it thinks it should be, its
roars send creepy chills up and down
the backs of the rest of the Lambert
street residents. There's some like
lihood of the happy pair being re-
moved to New Hope at an early
date.

Cashier Martin Killed.


The terrible tragedy at Kuna
last Friday afternoon, in which |
Louis A. Martin. cashier of the
Bank Of Knna, was killed, cast
gloom over the entire neighbor-
hood as he was we'll known 10 Me-
ridian. The tragedy occurred vt
the bank at about 4 o'clock.
Joseph Powell, residing five miles
west Of Kuna, had called at the
bank with his five ear-old son, To.
have some papers made out for
FINAL proof on bis homestead. The
child, noticing revolver in his
fathers pocket, pulled out the gun
while the two men we're busy with
the papers, and fred it point
blank at Mr.. Martins head. The
bullet entered the temple and
lodged ii the brain. The man
lived for two hours, but did not
regain full consciousness before
death. He WAS unable to speak
but when told the shooting was
accidental, be- tried to smile a
forgiveness.
The coroner's jury Saturday
rendered il simple verdict, that
Louis a. Martin, aged So years
and native OF West Virginia,
came 10 bis death by means OF .
.32-calibre revolver in the hands
81 Roy Powell, aged s years"
AT the inquest it developed
| that the child had been given guns
to play with since a babe. There
we're no witnesses to the shooting,
Miss Fiss being just outside the
door.
The funeral was held at Boise
Tuesday, III charge Of the Masonic
lodge OF which deceased was /
member. Rev. w. D. Luscomb'
conducted a brief service at thu
chapel, and burial was in Morri

Fighting at San Luis Potosi.

Chihuahua, Mexico, July 15.-Skir- mishing between the advance guard of the constitutionalist army and fed eral outposts at San Luis Potosi is in progress, according to advices. The general assault on that stronghold will not be ordered. however, until Cen Pablo Gonzales arrives from Sal tllo and takes personal command. Meanwhile a trainload of ammunition, escorted by troops under Gen. Jesus Carranza, is en route to Cerritos, the constitutionalist field base.
 From Guadalajara cemes word that Gen Avaro Obregon will start the main body of his constitutionalist army eastward toward Mexico City in a few days.
 Reports from Mexico City that Huerta may step down in a few days have caused Villa to reiterate his pre- vious statement that there must be no comprom se with the dictator. but that the plan Of Guadalupe must be adhered to rigidly This plan declares it imperative that the national capital be carried by force of arms.
 Villa did not go to Juarez, as ex- pected
