No less than seven mine accidents occurred
in various places near Scranton, in one ilay,recen

Bye is reported in some localities of such ex

On Thursday of last week Dr. li. F. Gardner,
assisted by Drs. Montgomery and Case , re
moved from the left breast of Mrs. George
Brown, of Mi film township, a schirrous tumor

Numttous criminal acts havo 1 ecu commit
ted of late by tramps assaults, robberies and
incendiarism and, in one case at least, tuur

are securely fattened and, also to prevent any
strange men from hanging about their premi

thieves, if not worse, and will bear careful
watching.

A correspondent of the New York fool
ves the following hints upon keeping cool.
Open your windows between (j and 7 o'clock
n the morning for ventilation, nnd then close
them, as also the blinds, and keep them closed
nil day. A house should be regulated like a
refrigerator, which, if tho doors am kept tight
y shut, will retain its coldness but if it is
thrown open will soon have the came tempera1
litre as the air without." Good philosophy nnd
orlh a trial.
Chief of Police Woodward received n a tele
gram on Tuesday afternoon, from Hunlotk's
Creek, Luzerno county, stating that a horse had
been stolen at that place, and giving a descrip

lending another and these were thought to be
tho thieves. Accordingly n constable started in
pursuit, brought them back, took them to Fq,
Brower's office and then it was discovered that
icy were not the right parties. they were
set at liberty asd went on their way rejoicing

We have to record yet another sudden death,
that of Mrs. E. B, Beidleman, which occurred
on Saturday morning ln-t at about half past eight
Mrs.Behlleman had been working in the garden
had returned to the house and was engaged in
some culinary duty when she suddenly dropped
to the lloor, and when found by her daughter,
a few moments later, was dead. Heart disease
was the cause of death. Her husband anil sev
eral children are hi, to mourn their sad be
reavement. Tho funeral took place on Monday
afternoon and the remains were followed to the
grave by a sorrowing concourse of friends and
relatives. -Mrs. Beidleman lacked a few days
of being fifty four years of age.
The horse driven by Joseph P. Conner,
the time of the accident which resulted in his
leath, was seized with a mad fit, a few days ago.
and after running about frantically nnd partly
lemolishlm: a bIimI, finally rushed into the Ian
yard and fell into a vat. It seems quite prob
able that the animal may have had such a fit
while Mr. Conner was driving, and in its mad
ihreiv.y plunged headlong down the bank into
the'canal. This would seem to account for the
mystery which has hung over the death of Mr.
Conner, for he was known as a good driver and
a vigorous and quick witled man. A very good
plan indeed would be to shoot that horse, before
another opportunity oilers for further destruc
tion of property or loss of life.
The Borrow fill duty devolves upon us, this
week,ol announcing the sudden death of Isaiah
B. Mendenhall, a young man of high characte
and excellent abilities, a son of Elias Menden
hall the well known merchant of this town
The young man was last week at his father's
mills in Jackson township, attending to bui
ncss matters, and on Thursday morning went
into the woods for recreation. He did not re
turn to dinner, but this excited no suspicion
his continued absence, however, finally gav
rise to alarm and a search was instituted and
kept up during Ihe night. At about ten o'clock
on Friday morning his lifeless body was found
lying In a cart path, the spot having several
times been passed in the darkness by the eager
ecArchcrs, A card afhxed to a tree and per
forated with bullet holes showed that ho had
been shooting at a mark and while bo engaged
he, in some inexplicable manner, accidentally
shot himself. His death must have been in
slantancous as there were no evidences of
struggle and tho body lay as If In repose upon
the turf. An inquest was held and a verdict
of "accidental death" rendered. The body was
brought to town on I' riday night. On Sunday
the funeral services were held In St. Paul1
church, and Ihe old choir, of which the d
ceased was formerly a member, sang by special
request. Tho church was filled to Its utmost
capacity by tho numerous relatives and still
more numerous friends of him whose career had
closed bo early and so Badly, Never, perhaps.
in this town have the solemn words of .Scrip
Hire "In the midst of life w euro In death," come
home with more force and pertinence than I
those touching burial services. The body wi
laid for Its long rest In Itosrmont Cemetery,
where the winds of summer will murmur a re
quiem among the leaves, and the flowers will
nod their perfumed heads In sorrow for tl
loved one now, alas, oblivious of their sweet
ness.
Mr. Mendenhall was but twenty six years of
age, In the flower of youth and his passing
away will leave a void not easy to fill In tl
hearts of his loving family. To them Time
alone can bring consolation, and relief from tl:
bitterness of grief.

Tin: Ni:w Jail. Upon the recommendation
f successive grand juries the Commissioners
letermined to build n new jail. Excursions
ere made to other counties In examine their
prisons, flans were aKeu ior, uuuiuers pru
luecd and after lengthy and learnM examina
tion, the poorest wns accepted, because the au
thor was "in the King." In hot haste and to the
surprise of everybody a new location was pur
chased, and the hinhert bid accepted. Since
the Court's injunction, however, the Commis-
loners seem determined to do nothing. Like a
lot of Bulky boys, if they cannot carry out their
schemes in their own way, they seem deter-
Ined that nothing at all shall be done, forget
ting that they are the servants of tho people, and
not their mitten. But if a new jail is not to be
uilt. whv Is a iail tax being collected? The
ordinary tax is enough for ordinary purposes.
nd it is not advisable to have a large surplus
in the Treasurer's hands which could be used
for speculative purposes by interested persons.
Stop the tax or build a proper jail on the present
ground.
We find in the Jtfftnnniaa the following sug
gestions which are worth consideration :
Considerable complaint has been made, re
cently, by citizens who attend church regularly,
f the miserable ventilation in some of our
churches, and the bad effect it had upon tin
liences, in close, warm weather. Ihe sex
tons in some instances, open their churches late
on Sunday morning, and do not pay that re
gard for tho comfort of the audiences that they
should. If the auditorium of a church build
ing is well aired nnd properly ventilated on the
Saturday previous to holding Sunday services,
and then opened again on Sunday morning as
arly as possible, the difference in the temper
dure of the building will be found to be nston-
hing. If, however, the churches are kept
closed during the week, with Ihe hot sun strik
ng the outside walls and windows, and are
opened onlv a short time before the morning
seivices begin on Sunday, nothing else than
bakc-oven temperature caa bo expected.
An ingenious swindler made his appearance
on the street, last Wednesday, and succeeded in
gulling a number of credulous persons who
loHbtltss thought they could see a chance to
make money rapidly. This follow professed to
Bell jewelry at merely nominal prices and began
operations by returning tu purchasers nut only
their money but more than they invested
When an eager bidder handed up Sr) he re
ceived an article of jewelry and $10 in money
Of course bidders became plenty, but only a
very few got their money back. When th
man had accumulated quite a number of liv
dollar bills, he put them in his pocket, and
Iruve away. He shortly afterward made hi
appearance in Iront ol the central rioiei uui
none of his vittiins had anything to say to him
We have fmiuentlv heard of this chap and
have wondered that he has not come to grief.

It may not be generally known that the laws
of Pennsylvania provide a fine of not less than
five dollars or more than one hundred dollars
co-it for willfully entering any orchard, garden,
hot-bed or green lioue, clubbing, stoning, break
ing or otherwise injuring fruit or ornamental
tree, or willfully trespassing uiion, walkln;

wise injuring any grass, grain, vines, vegeta

payment of said fine, the offender may be coin

Bixty days. Fruit stealing, or the willful tak

Tub Masonic Picnic On Tuesday last
there was a grand rally of the Masonic frater

at John's woods, about two miles from that

The band gavo excellent music, the swing
were in constant ue, and various games played
by our grand parents wcie revived. After an ex
ccllent dinner nil ablo address on Free-Masonry
was read by A. O. Smith Esq. Among tli
throng we met Mr. tiwln, now 85 years old

of the State. After supper, the happy crowd re
turned to their several homes, thankful for tl
pleasure the occasion afforded. When Catawl
