A reporter of the Freeman learning that a boat man, named James McLaughlin, hailing from Hunesdale, had been captured and incarcerated in Andersonville Prison during the war of the rebellion, resolved upon having an interview with the "Captain," which title Mr. McLaughlin came honestly by. With this determination, the reporter made his way to the Captain's boat, 813, "Up the Dock," and found the navigator of the route of many locks down the cabin, figuring out the difficult problem of how much longer he would have to stop at Rondout before his boat would be unloaded.

The reporter introduced himself, and, after taking a seat on the cabin steps, commenced a series of questions, which were answered willingly by Captain McLauglun Reporter "Captain, I understand you was a soldier in the civil war, is that so?" Captain "Yes, such is the fact, although I'm never in the habit of blowing about it, there were thousands and thousands of loyal fellows, besides me, who were fighting for their country." Reporter "Suppose you relate to me a little of your experience?" Captain "Well, if you think it will prove interesting, I will. But, mind you, I'm no blower, and what I am now going to tell you is true, in every particular. I en listed three years' service in Company 8dd JNew lorK olunteers, and was sent to the field or action on the fifth day of June, iooi. i tooii part in many battles, and. to make a long story short, was captured and made a prisoner, with many others, in the second day's fight of the Battle of the Wil derness, and taken to Andersonville Prison where suflered a thousand deaths.

Day after day I saw my brave comrades lay down auu uie liierauy starved to death. Oh, it i i I i i i wus nomuie. uuu Knows, i never again warn io go turougn a similar experience How I ever came out alive from that den of misery and death is to me a miracle. But I did, although I was given up for gone more man once wnue lay in the hospital under me care ot careiui nurses and skilled physicians." Reporter "How long a time was you in Andersonville Prison?" Captain "Now, right here, let me say, that 1 claim, and can prove, by a letter cer tifying io tne statement that I am going to make, from Felix LeBaum, President of the Andersonville Prison Association, that I served a longer term of imprisonment, in Andersonville, than any soldier put there uuuuj; me war, now living. Reporter "How long was that?" Captain "Thirteen long weary months.

Reporter "Where did you go after your Captain "To the Naval School Hospital ai Atuapuns, rrom which place I was transferred to the Patterson Park Hospital i iu juauuuore, out snortiy atter was again moved to Fort Schuyler Hospital, New York, from which place I was discharged ou juiy iDo. Keporter "How much did you weigh when you first entered the hospital?" yapuuu-J! orty-eight pounds. Rather light, wa3n it? Reporter What did they feed you on?" Captain "Milk punch, egg nog, lager Deer and brandy slings." Reporter "I understand thprp VCPTP GOV. eral prisoners in Andersonville Prison at the time ot your incarceration, from Kingston, did you meet any of them?" Captain "Yes, I got acquainted with two nnuur iiaie ana a man named Wliiilen, T' i. ve loiguuen uie last man first name.

reporter "Were the lolks clad to see 3'ou when -ou reached home in Honesdale?" Captain "Glad! Well. I should sav so. They dubbed me with a name that I suppose win sues, io me as long as 1 live. Reporter "What name did they you?" Captain "The 'Walking Skeleton of An and I am nroud of the title." Reporter "How much do 3Tou weigh at present? Captain "I tip the beam at 143 pounds." Reporter "Do you mind telling me your pontics? Captain "No. I'm a Republican every time." Reporter "Has 3rour business been good under trae Democratic Administration? Captain "Good! Say, you ought not to mock a fellow in his misery.

Why, if this thing continues, as it has under Cleveland's administration, we boatmen will be lucky if we make one trip a season. The liepubli- can party is the party of brains, and is the workingmen's friend every time." Reporter "I must go now, good bye." Captain "Good-bye. Don't forget to put in the paper that 1 am the 'Walking Skele ton of Internal Revenue Fine Exhibit of the Twelfth District. Collector Charles B. Staples, of the 12th Internal Refenue district, reports as follows for the mouth ending November 1st: Total amount collected, of this amount $15,700 is for malt and spiritous liquors; $10,500 for cigars and tobacco, and tha re maining amount for special licenses.

In comparison with the report of October. 1884, the total collections for the same month this year exceeds that amount by $850. By his collections it i3 shown' that 15,267 barrels of beer have been sold during the month, an increase of over 1,000 barrels over October, 1884, and consequently a per ceptible decrease in-the sale of whisky, wine etc. UnnKing it would be or interest to our readers to know more about this matter the folio wine facts have been gathered: There are twelve grain and three fruit distilleries, seventeen rectifiers, forty -five breweries, One tobacco manufactory and two hundred and seventy cigar factories in the district. tins is one ot tlie largest auu most im portant districts in tue btate, comprising nineteen counties, namely, Luzerne, Sus quehanna, Carbon, Monroe, Northampton, Pike, Bradford, Columbia, Mon tour, Sullivan, Wyoming, Centre, Clinton, Lycoming, Northumberland, Potter, Tioga and Union, representing a total population of 772,700, as follows: Luzerne has a population of 133 065 I -10 054 31 9-J3 20 175 susquehanna Carbon.

A Point for Travelling Salesmen. A Texas merchant bought a bill of goods from a commercial traveller on the condi tion that the latter would not sell to any other dealer in the same town. It was further agreed that if the salesman should violate the agreement the buyer need not pay for the goods.

The drummer did violate it, and accordingly the merchant refused to pay. He was thereupon sued by the house the agent represented. He set up the agree ment as a defence. The firm claimed that the agreement was made without their knowledge or consent; that it was beyond the scope of their agent's authority, and hence was not binding upon them. They further contended that jt a contract in restraint of trade and therefore illegal.

The Texas Court of Appeals decides that the agreement was valid, and hence that its breach relieved the defendant of the obliga tion to pay for the goods. It holds, first, that suh a contract was within the scope of the agent's apparent authority, and, second. that while an agreement in general restraint of trade is void, one which "operates merely ja partial restraint of trade is good, provided it be not unreasonable and there be a consideration." Whatever view the courts of any other State may take pf such a transaction, this decision settlei thalaw in Texas, the and but for the and of and or of to Half-Breed Leader Executed Monday Morning. last Regina, N. W.

Nov. 1C The Half-breed leader, Riel was executed here at 8:23 o'clock this morning. Extraordinary precautions against the possible escape of Riel were observed this morning. No one was permitted to enter guard-room until 8:13 o'clock. The scene then revealed was Riel on the scaffold, with Pere Andre and Father McWilliams celebrating mass.

Riel was on his knees. wore a loose woolen surtout, gray trousers and woolen shirt. He wore mocca-siDS on his feet, the only feature of his dress partook of the Indian that was in him. received the notice to proceed to the scaffold with composure. His face was full color, and he appeared perfectly self-possessed, responding to the service in a clear tone.

Just before going to the scaffold the prisoner, at the solicitation of the priests, gave up his intention of making a speech. the last moment, however, he showed an inclination to make a speech. Being re minded by the priest of his promise, not to make an address from the gallows, he arose and walked toward the executioner. He repeated his prayers to the last moment, his final words being "JTerci Jem." He died without a struggle. The execution was witnessed by twenty persons and was conducted with decorum and dispatch.

The body was taken in charge by the Coroner and the verdict usual after all state executions was rendered. A Young Preacher's Death. Rev. Elihu Bradley Meaker went to the Lehigh University gymnasium Friday afternoon last to take some exercise. After pulling the chest weights and punching the sawdust bag for a while, he began jumping rope, and a few minutes later, at.5:10 p.

dropped heavily to the floor and soon ex. pired in spite of efforts at resuscitation made by Drs. Praeger and Swoyer. An inquiry revealed the' fact that he had been suffering with heart disease. From a lengthy obituary notice in the Bethelehem Times we glean the following: Mr.

Meaker was born Jan' 5. 1832, in Howleytown, Broome County, N. Yr. His parents were Eli Meaker and Ruth A. Meaker He was the fifth of seven children.

He graduated from the Wyoming at Kingston, Luzerne County, in 1879. He was ordained local deacon in the Methodist Episcopal Church in the spring of 1880, and he preached for a portion of the year at a church near Great Bend, Susquehanna County. His health broke down and he was compelled to give up preaching. He then went to Bethlehem in March, 1881, and engaged In teaching mathematics. In 1881 he was married to Martha, daughter of Rev.

W. G. Queal of the Wyoming Conference. Rev. Queal was living -with Mr.

Meaker at the time of his death. The deceased was very active in church work, and had been connected with Wesley M. E. Church. In March, 1884, he was ordained local elder.

Since April last he has been a very efficient superintendent of the Sunday school connected, with Wesley Church. The deceased leaves a wife and one child, Robert Queal Meaker, aged about 11 months. His father, two brothers and two sisters survive him. Ilis father, El Meaker lives at Binghamton, N. Y.

His brothers are A. E. Meaker, instructor iu mathematics at Lehigh University, and Dr. Cyrus T. Meaker, dentist, at Plymouth.

His sister are Mrs. S. N. Hulbert, of Binghamton, N. and Ellen Meaker of Plymouth.

The deceased was an excellent mathematician, he and his brother, A. E. Meaker, being considered among the best mathematicians in the State. Quay's Ambition. Matthew S.

Quay will be very busy during the next year. A close personal friend of his, at Harrisburg, states that Quay's aim is to succeed John I. Mitchell in the United States Senate. Mitchell's successor will be elected in 1887. The latter has announced that he would be glad to succeed himself, but that he will not make a struggle to secure the election of members of the Legis, lature favorable to his candidacy.

Quay ntertalns no such delicate sentiments. From the office of the State Treasury he will lay pipe for Mitchell's seat. Quay's two-fold. Mitchell's anti-Boss proclivities render it necessary that his scalp should be taken, and Quay yearns for a wider field of operations than subjugated Pennsylvania. His Harrisburg friend states that Quay was a candidate for the Senatorship in 1881, but the general howl of indignation throughout the State over the Riot Bill bribery and Pardon Board infamy was such as to even alarm Quay.

He then brought forward Galusha A. Grow. The latter in speeches in the northern part of the State, denounced Quay, and was then thrown overboard. Harry Oliver was next presented by Quay and made the caucus nominee. The deadlock followed, and finally Mitchell was born to fame and an exalted position many size3 too large for him.

Quay decided to wait until a year-when but one State officer was to be elected and secure the Treasur-ship. This he will point to as a vindication if objection is raised on his past record to his caplidacy or the Senatorship by Republicans, says his friend. FrOra the Treasury Qtiay will scheme and intrigue, with the shrewdness for which he is noted, for the election of a Legislature favorable to his ambition. For funds-witb which to lubricate the machinery iu various parts of the State, he will draw upon those who are favored by him with generous deposits of the State moneys. It is intimated that the Republican Bosses, in this place, in their already made-up slate for next year, have Legislitive candidates selected favorable to Quay.

Some of the local Bosses have always been supple Quay henchmen. While it is certain that Quay candidates have been slated and will be nominated in this county, there is little danger that they will be elected. lietters are Sacred. In the employ of one of the wealthiest ladies of Rochester has been for some time a colored domestic. The girl was young and evidently had many mail admirers, for she received qu a number of letters almost daily.

Her mistress was annoyed at this, and about two weeks ago two letters came for the domestic and reached the hand of the lady, who petulantly threw them into the stove. The following day the postman handed another letter to the girl herself and told her that she vae receiving a great many letters. Not so many," shejcpUed, "this is the first one I have got in a week." The latter carrier a serted that he had brought two nly the day before. The girl went Jo her mistress aud demanded an explanation. The Jady Yes, I did get two letters for you but I threw tienj into the stove.

You are receiving too many letter lately." And she told the tory to ber husband at night as a good joke. The latter looked grave when the girl threatened to bring suit, and lbs upshot of the whole matter is that the girl has been paid an even $2,000 to keep the case out ot the courts. The mistress now has a new girl, but the ojd one doesn't care. Maybe she will go to Europe. Business Notice.

The week been one of close confinement to the President, who is at work on his first message to Congress. He has had frequent consultations with different members of his Cabinet, but has seen few other people than those having the most urgent business with The present week will be one of equal seclusion, as he expects by the close of it to complete this document, and have it ready the printer. The message is pretty well under way, and parts of it are now being copied on the type-writer. It is said he has touched "upon many points with his characteristic vigor. A good deal of space has been devoted to commercial relations and steamship controversy, and it is believed President will sustain the Postmaster General.

The Navy will also be given due consideration, and Congress will be urged appropriate largely for new vessels. A Democratic Congressman who has just returned to Washington was asked what would be the tendency of legislation this session. He replied: "We cannot tell un we see what the President will ask us to in his message." Still he thought there were several matters that were certain to come -before Congress for action. "The Army and Navy" continued he "both require a good deal of There is sentiment among Democrats that this Ad-mi nistralion must re create the Naval Service, and that it must be restored to the position it occupied in the world's fleet before the war. It is easy to note upon the faces of Republican Congressmen as they gather in Washington an expression of discouragement.

They feel that the party in power will stay. The Republican party has had taken away from it the power of its Federal officers and its ability to raise assessments from office holders. The Democratic party came very near beating with all of this artificial strength, and the recent elections have proved that the Democratic party can stand alone, and needs no Federal patronuse to back it. You hear no more now about war in the Senate, and nothing about Demo cratic revolt even from Republican Congressmen. The President's order excluding office seekers and miblic men from the White House except when they have public business with him will probably be revoked at the end of the month.

It was made to give Mr. Cleveland time to prepare hh message, and" he has said that be feels no inclination to restrict public men in their visits to him or to require them to Bpecify their business in advance. A few days ago some prominent Congressmen were protesting against the order in the office of Private Secretary Lataont. Presently they were admitted to see the President, and finding him alone once was such an unexpected convenience that they went away thinking well of the late order. The event at the White House on Saturday wa3 the arrival of its long absent hostess, Mis.

Cleveland. She has been at her home in Oneida county, New York, and returns to resume her social duties here. During the week several Republican officials here were relegated to private life. Nearly all the higher officials in the Treasury Department now are new men and Democrats, and the good work of the new broom goes on steadily if not rapidly. Secretary Manning seems to grap his whole complicated Department, and his energetic business methods are felt through every branch of it.

He spread consternation among Treasury clerks last Friday by issuing an order that the names of all clerks who came lata to the Department should be reported to the chief clerk. The doorkeepers at the Treasury were armed with tablets and took down the names of tardy clerks as they arrived. The result of the first days catch was 235 delinquents. S. The New Civil Service Commissioner.

Alfred P. Edgerton, one of the new civil service commissioners, was in early life a clerk in a mercantile house in New York city, but while still a young man removed to Northern Ohio as the agent of the Northern land company. He then served four years in Congress as a Democrat, and was the financial agent of the State of Ohio, with an office in New Yoijk city. In 1858 he moved to Indiana, and in 1868 was the Democratic candidate for Lieutenant Governor, Vice President Hendricks being the candidate for Governor. They were both defeated.

He has been engaged in many successful business enterprises, and is in easy circumstances, and is a practical student of public affairs. He was for many years an intimate friend and associate of Chief Jus tice Waite, who together with Senator H. B. Governor Gray, Indiana, Vice President Hendricks an? miny leading citizens of Ohio and Indiana, armly endorsed him .3 possessing qualities peculiarly fitting him for the work of the Cijvil Service com-misskin, with which he is in full sympathy. Mr, Trenholm, the other appointee, is a South Carolinian, about fifty years of age.

He Is a commission merchant and was warmly endorsed for the appointment by leadiiiig friends of the civil service reform movement, North and South. He is the son of the late Secretary Trenholm of the treasury ot the Southern Confederacy, and has been brought into prominence lately by his addrtss before numerous bankers conven tions on the silver question and his writings on the same subject, which have attracted wide attention. Mr. Trenholm Is also a Democrat. Thy third commissioner will be named shortly.

Dorman B. Eaton has been rein stated to serve until the appointment is made. Ivy on the AValls. The common belief that ivy trained against the walls of a dwelling house produces dinp walls and general unhealthiness if fallacious. The very opposite is the case.

If one will carefully examine an ivy clad wall a shower of rain he will notice that while the overlapping leaves have conducted the water from point to point until it ban reached the ground, the wall beneath is perfectly dry and dusty. More than this, the thirsty Shoots which force their way in to every crevice of the structure will afford a firm hold like suckers, in drawing on any article of moisture Ljr their own nourishment. The ivy, in fact, acts like a great coat, keeping the house from wet and wam. One more virtue it has in giving to the ugliust structure as evergreen beauty. Business Notice.

BARNES. Register. Register's Office, Honesdale, Nov. 9, 1885. Amputation of the Leg.

Money is the imivensal necessity, and none but a cynic or a fool will affect to despise it. Mr. Abram Ellsworth, of Port Ewen, Lister county, N. had realized this truth. His disease involved the whole of his thigh-bone, and the suffering man looked forward, not without apparent reason, to death as his only deliverer.

The family physicians refused to amputate the limb, asserting that the operation would kill the patient on the tpot. Dr. Dr. DaM KENNEDY, of Rondout, N. who was consulted, held a different opinion and amputated the limb.

The Doctor then administered freely hi3 great Blood Specific FAVORITE REMEDY to afford tone and strength to the system and prevent the return of the disease, and Mr. Ellsworth remains to this day In the bloom of health. This gentleman's disease was the offspring of foul blood, and Kennedy's FAVORITE REMEDY purified the blood aud restored to him the power once more to enjoy his life. Are you suffering from any disease traceable to the same cause? Try Favorite Remedy. Your druggist has it.

ONE DOLLAR a bottle. Bear in mind the proprietor's ntrae and address. Dr. David KENNEDY. Rondout, NY.

To Keep tlie Blood Pure is the nrincroa' end of inventions and discoveries in medicine To this object probably no one has contributed more signally than Dr. David Kennedy, of Rondout. N. in the' production of a medicine which has become famous under the title of tlie "Favorite Remedy." It removes all impurities of the Blood, regulates the disordered Liver and Kidneys, cures Constipation, Dyspepsia and all diseases and weaknesses peculiar to females. 45 SHERIFFS SALE OP VALUABLE REAL ESTATE.

19,1885. Heretofore Thanksgiving proclamations have been sent from the State Department to the ministers throughout the State. This year they will be sent to the post" masters. Three thousand proclamations have been issued. By an act of the Legislature, approved by Governor Patlison July 3, 1883, the pay of witnesses in all civil and criminal cases before Justices of the Peace and Aldermen in this Commonwealth is fixed at fifty cents per day for each day they are necessarily in attendance and three cents mileage traveled in going to and returning from the magis trate's office from which the subpoena issues.

Horace B. Clafiin, one of the most prominent and successful merchants of the 19lh century, at his home at Fordham last Saturday, aged 74 years. Mr. Clafiin began life a poor boy but by business sagacity, push and enterprise built up the largest wholesale drygoods business in New York, his sales some years aggregating $50,000,000. lie is survived by his wife and two sons.

Quay's official majority is 43,516, and the Republican' majority in the State on the local tickets is 55,895, or 12.379 more than that received by Quay. Mr. Day's vote, in the face of the Democratic indifference that prevailed, is highly creditable to him, as he largely leads his party vote both at home and generally throughout the State, Wayne county being a notable exception. In some tests made with small squares of various woods buried an inch in the ground, the following results, say3 the Garden, were noted: Birch and aspen decayed in three years; willow, and horse chestnut in four years; maple aud red beech ia fiye years; elm, ash, hornbeam and Lombardy poplar in seven years; oak, Scotch fir, Weymouth pine and silver fir decayed to a depth of half an inch in seven years; larch, juniper aud arborvila; were uninjured at the expiration of the seyen years. General Logan is reported to be utterly discouraged by the results ef the New York and Virginia elections.

It has been his belief that in the campaign of 1888, with some Stalwart Republican like himself at the head of the ticket and an old rebellion issue brought prominently to the front, success would have been reasonably certain. He thought this could be demonstrated in fie recent went into the canvass io do it. The bloody shirt issue was -gan's strong pomt. To win with it again it a square, old fashioned Democrat would ue to open the way for Logan in 1888. He is now forced to give that idea up and to acknowledge the hopelessness of such a probability.

It is said that will personally retire into the background, so far as national candidacy is concerned, and will not allow his name to be used at another national convention. Of the 127 members of the House in the Fortieth Congress who, on the of February. 186S, voted for the articles of ira peachmcnt against Andrew Johnson, only twoJohn H. Ketcham, of New York, and W. I.

Kelley, of Pennsylvania are now members of the forty ninth Congress. Judge Kelley has served continuously since that -time, while General Ketcham has been out several terms. Of those who voted against impeachment, forty-seven in number, only two remain Sam. J. Randall, of Pennsylvania, and Wm.

S. Holman, of Indiana. Mr. Randall has served con tinuously, while Judge Holman has been out a portion of the time since. Of the thirty -five Senators who voted "guilty," three Justin S.

Morrill, George F. Edmunds, of Vermont, and John Sherman are at present Senators. Sherman, however, was out for four year while Secretary of the Treasury uDder Hayes. Of the nineteen voting "not guilty," none remain in that body except Vice President Hendricks, who presides over the Senate. The November 5Ieteors.

The November meteors, coming about the 13th. and adjacent nights.are worthy of attention. Some indications point to the act that they may be more plentiful this year than recently. They move around the sun in which the earth's orbit intersects, and consequently which the earth pierces annually. If it cuts the ring in a rich neighborhood meteors are plenty, and vice term.

Each 'meteor and group of meteors require about 33 1-3 years to go around the sun, so the extensive group, which visited us in 1806, may again beexpeeted in 1899. Thirty three years ago they were reported to be rather more brilliant than usual, and the same may beexpeeted this year. Last year they were conspicuously absent. They radiate from the constellation Leo, and should be looked for the latter part of the night, both because Leo is then well aboye the horizon and also to take advantage of the absence of inoonlight. Another meteor shower of more interest than brilliancy may be looked for about November 25.

A few years ago a comet revolved about the sun in a period of about six years. It split in two and then disappeared, but every six years comes a shower of meteors. But, in 1879, when last due, the meteors did not come with their wonted frequency. It is surmised that they have been switched off the track by the attraction of a planet. Should they not appear the present year the idea will receive additional strength.

They will radiate from Andromeda, and can be seea in the early part of the night. The Country's Credit. The Register of the Treasury, in his an nual report, that out of registered bonds, only $11,927,900 are held abroad. It would be hard to exaggerate the significance of this fact, and we may add that this effort of American citizens to monopolize the debt of their country is the sequel of "a strange, eventful history." The fact that nearly all of our one billion dollars of registered debt is held by our own people is important, because between $30,000,000 and $40,000,000 per annum is thereby kept at home instead of being sent abroad to pay foreign creditors. The superb credit which the frovernment enjoys in the money markets of the world is an enduring monument to the indomitable energy and unswerving integrity of a great Democracy and to the boundless vital power of this prosperous and re-united country.

Business heiice. Destroy that Sign. One may feel that he's getting old, but he naturally dislikes that anything about his appearance should advise others of the fact Yet nothing does this so effectually as thin and falling hair. No woman wants to marry a man, and bust ness firms hesitate to employ a man, who shows this fatal sign. Parker's Hair Balsam is worth to you, in this regard, more than its weight in diamonds.

Use it, and have plentiful and glossy hair. Many have had every trace of grayness removed and bald spots covered by using a single bottle. 43w4 Business Notice. Nothing so successful as success, 'fifefB Washintr Machine" is the and the success. rlold by C.

The main point to be attained in a Eevolving Churn is a perfect, practical, movable cove. In construction of the cover and locking arrangements of McKanna's Revolving Barrel Churn tliis is accomplished.

No other Barrel Churn but is deficient in one or more points in this particular. No other as simple in construction or convenient to operate. No other is as safe when locked. No other can be changed to a different degree pressure if necessary. In no other is the pressure regu'ated to a certain limit, so as not to allow of different pressure different loekings.

This Is a very important feature in seenring a tight head. In no other is the head as free of bars or obstructions to cleaning. No other has handles to lift or carrv with. No other Churn 1 bo nearly perfect as P. Mo-Kanna's Revolving Creamery Barrel Churn.
