sea serpent has been heard from It is of 188 Bridge who has seen him this Listen to his tale as he told it to a reporter yester Early last Sunday morning I started out from bay in a hired fishing There were three of a friend of Joseph Smith son and the man in charge of the John We sailed off Long Beach and fished there for a couple of hours without much Then bore away for a point off Jones where we anchored and found plenty of By noon we had caught a pretty good and stopped for I was sitting amidships opening some Smithson was forward unwrapping the sand wiches and Weever was lolling back in the stern The sea was very calm and there was no All at once gave a kind of a jumped up and pointed at something on our port I rose to my feet and looked and saw what I had never seen before never to meet About one hundred yards away was a gigantic snake moving rapidly through the water in the direction of Fire It as far as I could judge about thirty yards in including the which projected about six feet out of the It had a clearly de fined and left an eddying wake behind it like that of a steam The from what we could see of was a dark glistening brown on the upper and when it curved itself high we could see that its belly was of a light ash Its head was exactly like that of an enormous except that just where the neck began it had what looked like a mass of greenish colored Its eyes were bright and dark When it plunged its head which it did every few we saw something like the film which goes over the eye of a bird cover the pupil of the sea Just behind the mouth there were perpendicular red like We saw the gills dilate and contract every now and It blew a kind of foam out of its nostrils with a deep roaring We watched it for fully a couple of when it sud denly sank out of and we did not see it The eddies which it made in passing us rocked our little The sight of the serpent spoiled our fish and we hoisted sail atod got home as quickly as we The shock made us feel I havent been myself who resides at 612 Atlantic though inclined to be corroborated the story told by his friend and fellow fisherman CONVENTION June third and last day of the Democratic National

have frequently heard the remark during the past few weeks that the town is and to the casual observer the remark doubtless seems absolutely I I 4 it is very far June There has been no improvement in Gen eral Sheridans condition since the 2 oclock Chapelle was called a short time General Sheridan has bad Joe the official of New laments the fact that his occupation is gone through II ills signature of the substituting elec for the rope as a means of capital At his 257 Evergreen the other he said I am convinced that electricity will be a The very thought of such an easy death and the absence of the gallows will strike as little terror in murderers hearts as a six months term in Sing There is no better determent to crime than the bnt while the has now be come law I must resign myself to the Colorado cattle who ia said to be worth to the wife of Warren of the another attack of heart but is now somewhat 9 The failure of the which was noted in the lust lias been followed by severe congestion of the Sheridan is delirious and his temperature is a little over 100 his pulse 118 his respiration He takes nourishment and has grown quieter within the last June 8 Sher idan has become more tranquil and clear in his mind since 0 oclock He has had several short but quiet sleeps and is now the pulse and respira tion are diminished in frequency but not in strength and Everything has been mod quiet at the since 1 Pepper and Lincoln have ar June Beaver today appointed Christian father of lost Charley to be Marter Warden of the port of Phila June The dent hat signed the appropriating f or but for all that from being the That there is very little of excitement and that the town is perhaps to an unusual degree while there are no or and only a fire at long a state of affairs at which our citizens are very well goes without the saying but that does not prove that the town is dull in the truest sense by any W ith a population approaching closely to if not reaching five thousand it is a well known fact that there is scarcely a half grown girl and we might almost say a who is not It is almost impossible to secure a hand for an odd job of work there are scarcely enough teams in town to do the hauling and we have yet to see the mechanic who has not all the worked mapped out for the summer that he will be able to get through A walk through any of our busy hives of industry will convince even the most skeptical that Tyrone from centre to circumference is a busy town and that there are but few drones in the Starting atv Tyrone station with its hundreds of passing trains and going through Bald Eagle tannery where order is the first law and ever increasing business the result of well directed we emerge at the Juniata and looking across the bridge the eye en counters the ruins of the late fire al ready emerging from its chaotic Looking further up our principal busi ness thoroughfare we cannot help but be delighted with its with everywhere signs of business But before going further than Juniata street we must take in the establish ments of Samuel J Gray and others who employ hands and help to make Tyrone not a dull town but a business Having looked in upon these people they are all busy but courteous we walk on up Main street noting that improvements are being made everywhere as we and we reach the paper It is still grow ing and the reader can rest assured that one hundred or more people around that establishment are working because things are never dull around the Tyrone paper Morrison Cass are not built that Much as we admire the paper we cannot Tyrone is growing to be a big town and it takes all day to get over so a look through the railroad yard is next in How is the coal trade Increas That settles Tyrone can never be dull while the coal holds out to so we go up and see what the saw and planing mills are Everybody busy There is no time to be lost about the mammoth establishments of Beyer and McCamant One hundred or more buildings going up and repairs in progress all over the town and through the surrounding country makes the saws the planers bum and the chips This corner of Tyrone is not It is not in the we will come down town aod go up on top of cemetery Surely here quiet must reign Bnt bold on not so The Tyrone me the the stone mason on
