A shooting affair occurred in Upjier Maudi Chunk, about 11 o'clock Wednesday evening last, the particulars of which ap pear to bo about as follows : A shin dig or what some call a ball had been held on the hill, when somewranglingoccurred between some boatmen nnd George R.

Williams proceeded to his house and lo bed. Thursday morning, iu company with his brother he returned to the hill, and gavo himself up to tho officers of the law, and was committed to await tlio resultof the wounded man's injuries. Such are tho facts so far as we could learn from the many con flicting stories coinc tho rounds. Dr. Ir win attended the wounded man, and at first entertained but lilllo hopes of his recovery, but later on Thursday, ho informed us that he had rallied, and that his chances for re covery were 100 per cent, improved, Emith was sent down to St. Luke's Hospital, at T... 1.1.1 1 l . n An . . . . nt. uciiucuuiii, on me uu p. in. train inurs day afternoon. the Cbal Gazelle in speaking of the affair says: Early on Thursday morning Wil liams gavo himself up to'the authorities and was ncni to await tne result of brmtirs In juries.

After a search of several days on the track of the thieves who carried off the iron safe containing $27,000 in cash and securities, belonging to Michael Richards, an old farm er, residing about ten miles from Reading, tho officials succeeded Friday in finding the safe, which had been buried in the woods nnd tho placo covered with leaves and brush. Tho thieves had broken into tlio farmer's country seat, and failing to open the safo whilo the family slept, they carried it bodi ly from the house, placed it on a wheelbar row and departed. It was a small safe, and it is supposed the thieves Wem Itlftxiwriptiiwl and knew very little of the business of safe breaking, iney cartcu It to tho woods, where they buried it without Aliening it. Tho officers traced the thieves to the woods and two davs afterward found tbn unfa. All the money nud securities were unmolested in it. There is a clew to tho thieves, but no urrcsis navo as yet been made. On Monday afternoon a young son of j-.u Dowcrwinc, resiuing a snort instance south of the Lehigh Valley depot at Slating ton, while on the loftof the barn, fell through an opening to tho threshing floor beneath, eusiaiuing eevcre luternai injuries. ScrloiiK Cluircll Ilfficillr Schuylkill county In general and Bhcn nndoah iu particular is noted for tlio largo number of Poles who within tlio past five or six years have swelled tho population. It is estimated that thcro aro 5,000 of them In that county nt tlio present time, one fourth of whom reside iu Shenandoah. While it is generally believed by tho lieoplo that tliey nro all Poles it is nevertheless an error, ns they are composed of two distinct factions, tlio first being Poles proper and the other Lithuanians or Litlishi Thesa two classes of jioople, it seems, Bpeak two distinct langu ages nnd neither can understand the oilier. They aro nil Roman Catholics, nnd three years ago succeeded in erectltig a coniara tirely handsome church. Tho first jiaslor assigned to tlio charge of tills disunited people by Archbishop Wood Was Rov. An drew Strupinskl, who occupied tho position of priest among them for n period of two years. He spoko both languages, Polish nud Litlish, with fluency. At tho expiration of two years tho Arch bishop saw fit to suspend rftrupinski, ns ho had proved himself to bo a sort of conjurer tir sorcerer and had performed miracles by tho score. This was contrary to sound Catholic doctrine, and Rev. Alexander Lan nrltovlch, of St. Patrick's Church, of Phila delphia) Wits sent among his peoplo by tho Archbishop. Ho can speak Polish only, nnd the friends of Strttpinshi, through h'is ngency, hnVo given considerable trouble to tho now pastor nnd tho Archbishop ever since. They clolm,they cannot understand him, and, after mmiy petitions sent to tlio Archbishop for his removal without success, Sunday morning they determined that ho should not cuter tho church to celebrate mass. Beforo seven o'clock a crowd of about five hundred of tho Llttish surrounded tho church and locked the gales of tlio small picket fence surrounding it with heavy pad locks. When tlio sexton canio to the church the crowd drove him off and ho nt once in formed the priest of what was going on. The priest, iu company with Chief Burgess Whalei), then repaired lothe church, and, to put tho term mildly, both were terror ized to see such n largo crowd at bucIi an hour. The priest tried to enter tho church gate, but was roughly pushed back by those in front of the gato and insulted. He tried, ns a good pastor should, to remonstrate with them and show them tho evil effect of their course, but was treated with yells of derision. Ho then informed the Chief Burgess he wanted them all placed under arrest, and that official in a short time had the whole police force on the spot. Somo jwrtion of tho congregation in the meantime- had filled their jiockets with stoncs.nnd as tho poliro advanced upon them they gave them a volley of the dangerous missiles. The polico then drew their re volvers, niul the opposing party seeing this some of them pulled out knives but did not uso them. Tho Klice fired a volley into tlio air, which had tho effect of terrifying the rioters. About fifty of tlio disturbers were women, who were quite ns demonstra tive as the men, and one of them fought hard with the officers. Tho polico succeed ed in arresting thirty-five of tlio men and ten women. Tho . rest of the crowd then fled. Tho lock-up was crowded so densely that somo of tho women fainted with the heat. One-half of tlio prisoners wero then removed to Ferguson's Hall nnd a strong guard placed iiround the building. During theirconfincmentono of the party turned State's evidence. His name is Chas. Miller. Ho stated that a meeting was held on Saturday evening in the woods on the outskirts or tho town at which were present some five hundred Lithuanians from Shen andoah, Mount Carmcl, Gilberton nnd the surrounding country. A man by the nnmc of Georgo Miller, alias Ceorgo 'Musrovich, Jkctcd as chairman, who, with Andrew Mar ousky and Pelcr Cutcuvich, told tho meet ing they had legal advice to tlio effect that they could remove- the pastor, and if lie would not go they could make him go. Miller denies tho story and says ho is inno cent. Ho i, however, under arrest. Rev. Father Lanarkovich says that Miller is a fire-brand, ond that he iiover goes to rhurcli except to destroy tho peace and good will of his jioople, and that ho never con tributes to tlio support of tho church nnd says that he will punish them nil to the full extent of the law. He has taken out war rants for their commitment ns inciters to .riot. All thoso arrested nro still in custody (Monday) nnd the greatest excitement pro vails. Large numbers of their friends in bodies paraded the streets Sunday evening and in consequenco of this fact the whole polico force wero on duty guarding the pris oners. Latfk. But four of tho thirty-six Folcs arrested at Shenandoah, Sunday havo been retained, tho rest bciug discharged by pay ing small fines. Tlio four who are retained are tho ringleaders of tho riot, and will bo tried at tho next session of the Criminal Court to bo held in Pottsville. TUn Conl Dealers, Incursion. " Namcloc," thovcrsatilo correspondent of tho Public Ledger, who accompanied tlio ex cursion of coal dealers, which started from Philadelphia, furnishes that paper with tho the following interesting sketch of tho trip. His letter is dated at Mauch Chunk, Oth : The coal dealers and shippers of Philadel phia ended, practically, their excursion through the Schuylkill 'and Lehigh coal re gion at this point Saturday. Iu the trip of two days they have not only had nn oppor tunity of viewing tlio mountains and plains that contain the coal and mineral wealth of Pennsylvania, but also of passing through a country abounding in grand and varied scenery unsurpassed by any other section of our country. Leaving Sunbury at half past six o'clock Saturday morning, and al most immediately entering the tihatnokin valley, tho excursionist had a fine view of this fruitful portion of the State; though not very extensive, still it possesses richly culti vated farms and wooded scenery that make it very pleasant to tho sight of thoso whose business confines them to the hot streets and Vitiated nlr of large cities. After leaving Shenandoah City and pass ing up tho valley of the samo name the scenery is entirely different in character. Hero ranges of mountains meet tho eye, whilo tho valley is dotted so closely with villages for several miles they almost pre sent tho appearance af a continuous town. Tho Lehigh Volley Rollroad commences the ascent of the mountain soon after leaving Shenandoah City, and when the summit is reached a magnificent view of almost tho entire valley meets the vision, and what is equally gratifying is a view of tbenumerous collieries which, when coal is in demand, givo employment to thousands, who, from tho necessity of the time are at present idle. Tho towns, though not presenting long rows of palatial residences nnd stores, are in brisk times the scenes of active business life, which brings to the valley millions of dol lars, that are distributed in wages to tlio miners and in opening up new veiniof coal, which in time will supply not only our own country, but foreign lands, not fortunate possessors of this valuable product of the mountains of our State. The gardens of the miners along the moun tain sides, and upon their summits chow that the lind.is not entirely barren, but mat me aay may come wnen toe coal may be exhausted in the present scene of rrtraujtlbe urne can be bought t the ticket effict Ivns.when fields of waving grain will replsco the pa-esent barrenness. Perhaps the mo9t beautiful View to bo had of this region of our Stale is thnt of the Quaknko Valley, and as it appeared tills morning, bathed In warm sunshine, with tho soft bluo hnro around tlio hills, it pit" scntrd ona of tho lovllest lanclsraprs lobe seen, after leaving tha Wyoming Valley III fact, in somo rrspecU, the Quakako is fully up to the Wyoming. Tho excursionists, many of whom had never been in this re gion before, expressed themselves iu the most extravagant terms as to Its beauty. Audcnried, in tlio Lehigh region nud not far from Hnzlefon, was also visited, and tha train stopped long enough to cnablo tho visitors lo examine ono of the breakers nlid inspect tlio latest improvements In prewir ing coal for market, llazlclon was reached at half-past 1 o'clock and n Btay made long enough for dinner at tho Central and Man sion Hotels. Mnuch Chunk Was reached by i o'clock, and the entire party made n trip over the Switchback nnd enjoyed tlio grand nnd beautiful scenery which' has do lighted so many. Tho fam'o of this exciting trip lias spread nil over the counlry mid largo numbers of visitors pass over it daily, whilo largo excursion parlleafrom Philadel phia are of frequent occurrence. The excursion, taken altogether, has been of the most delightful character, while nt tho same time it has accomplished good iu bringing tho coal dealers of Philadelphia to gether, and thus enabling them to becomo better acquainted with each other, and bet ter understand those who work in tlio mines ns well as thoso who own the breakers. sillier' Work nnd IVngcR. The Beaver Meadow correspondent of tho Hazlclon Daily Sentinel, writing under dalo of July 3d, furnishes tho following interest ing statement : Col6raine, Jenncsvillo and Beaver Brook are working this week.
