ruination of the third year the county re
fused to pay more than $1,071, which Har
ris had already drawn. The Commissioner
then brought suit to recover $529, the bal
ance which he alleged was due bim on hit
third year's salary. The matter wat tub
mitted to the Court on a cate stated and
judgement was rendered In favor of the
county, it having been shown that unless
the county contained 130,000 inhabitants
the law fixed the salary of the Commission
er at $3 a day for each dy he was actually
occupies In performing his duties, other
wise the salary of $1,500 per annum was to
be allowed,

Three Boys Poisoned One of them Dies
Oreat Excitement
Special to the Gakbok Adyocatc.
Packkitox, May 1st Last Saturday af
ternoon this community was thrown into
Interns excitement by a report that several
boys of the neighborhood had been poison
ed and were dying. There was hurrying of
parents And friends In the direction of Bea
ver Run. Mr. Joseph Bennett found his
son, Josie, near the new oil house, along
the publlo road. In convulsions. Quickly
gathering him In bis arms he stalled for
home, but wsa compelled to stop at the res
idence of Thos. Weaver, a brother-in-law
because of the sutTeringt nf the boy, Quite
a number of persons soon gathered, and
willing hands were at work doing all in
tbelr power to relieve the suirerer. Now,
to add to the excitement, Mr. Walp, mer
chant of this place, came driving up with
little Harry, a younger son of Mr. Bennett,
in a still worse condition. Aa quickly as
possible Mr. Walp started for medical aid,
and after considerable trouble, having call
ed on all the physicians in Lehighton, he
secured the services of Drs. Derbamer and
Bower, who speedily reached the sufferers;
they were soon followed by Dr. Reber who
had been summoned to attend Harry, son
of Mr. Thomas Blocker, also suffering from
the poison, though not so bad aa the two
Bennett boys.
Mr. Thomas Hsrlemsn had Interviewed
some of the boys who were in company
with the sufferers.and ascertained that tbey
had eaten of a root tbey had supposed to be
artichokes. Pieces of the deadly plant were
secured. Within the house, Dr. Derbamer
was battling with all his skill and energy
to save the life of little Harry Bennett, but
despite all efforts, after enduring the must
intense agony, the little sufferer breathed
his last; be then turned bis attention to
Josie, still in convulsions, with a determi
nation, if possible, to defeat death's ravages;
be was successful, the convulsions were
broken, and the little fellow is aa well as
ever to-day, oaly almoet heart-broken at
the loss of his little brother whom he fondly
loyed. Meanwhile Dr. Reber had mastered
the poiuiu in Harry Stocker. Other child
ren, who had esten sparingly of the poison
ous root, were being attendant to by anxious
parents, and the excitement subsided.
As to what kind of plant, root or herb it
is there is nothing satisfactory yet, portions
have been sent to those who will glye- it
their attention and giye it its proper name.
One thing certain, it is a deadly poison and
does its work quickly.
The funeral of little Harry Bennett took
place this (Monday) afternoon, and was at
tended by a large concourse of citizens. The
sympathy of the community Is extended to
the grief stricken parents in this their hour
of affliction. Little Harry, with bis bright,
happy disposition, was a favorite among his
playmates. He will be sadly missed by a
sorrowing family.
Meeting of Miners.
A Piiuton dispatch gives the following
particulara of the miners' convention held
at Pittttnn last Fridoy. The meeting d -monstrated
one of two things either that
the men are so broken in spirit Ly the I alf
time and poor pay that they were a fra in to
attend less they might be black-listed by the
bosses, or Hint a subtle influence has been
ut work among the.ru, and that they have
a secret organization already stronger than
tney care to show until such time as they
can use its power effectively. Doubtless
both these causes contributed to the meagre
attendance, which was absolutely disap
pninting. It was not what might be called
a convention. It was simply a meeting of
few men, certainly not more than twenty.
who conferred in secret.
William G. Thomas of Scranton, a work
man who was formerly viclmiztd tor his
views by the companies, and is now doing
business in Hyde Park, presided, and John
Mead, ol Pleasant Valley, a miner, was
Secretary pro tern. A written apology was
received irom Edward. M. Jones, a miuer,
who rained a breeze at the previous meeting
by asserting that he earned $60 in twenty
daya. Realizing that this assertion did great
i "justice to the miners nf this region, who
do not earn more than $25 to $30 a month
i me present rates of pay', Jones made his
denial stronger than bit original assertion.
The influence nt work among the men
ince their lust meeting was shown in the
reconsideration of the motiou adopting the
Miners' and Laborers' Protective Associa
tiun.ua the name ul the organization, and
nubstituting iu its stead the lull title ol the
Knights of Labor. Thedecluralion of prin
I'iples of that .order was road "aud adopted,
and soiim new members were enrolled. The
preamble to these urtiolcs declares that :
The alarming development aud aceres-
tioij nf aggregated weolth, which, unless
checked, will inevitably lead to tho pauperi
zation and hopeless degradation of the toil
ing masses, rentiers it imperative, if we de
sire to enjo
check slmul
sire to enjoy the blessings or life, that
check should be placed uimn its power aud
upon unjust accumulation, and a svslem
adopted which will secure to the laborer the
Iruila of his toil; and as (hit ni'ich desired
object can only be" aeeoiutilitbed by the
tnnrougn uuihcatlnn or those who labor and
ly the united efforts or those who earn their
bread by the sweat of their brow, we have
formed the orderol the Kniuhtsnl Lahor.witli
a view ul securing the organization and di
rection by cooperative cllorts of tbe wer
of the industrial classes, and we submit to
the world the objects sought to be accom
plished by our organization.
The meeting wat unanimously of tbe
opinion that it was judicious to proceed at
once with tbe work of organization, and
that it could best be efTected among tbe men
at the different shafts and slopes along the
valley. A Vote of thanks to Motes Taylor
for his gift of a quarter of a million dollars
to establish a hospital at Scranlun for the
workingman was adopted.
I atked a delegate how be accounted for
the meagre attendance. He shook his head
and said : "Wheo the miners show the!'
strength it will be felt"
It is tbe general opinion here, even out
side the ranks of tbe miners, thst tbe
companies, as a simple act of justice, ought
to advance the wages of their workmen at
least 20 per cent., as the high cost of liying
makes uie among the laboring classes a con
stant grind, and despite tbe so called good
timet there is much suffering among tbe
mining batnlett. "Will the men strike?"
is tbe question of the hour. To this I
answer they will unless their pay is ad
vanced.

ed the risk, had failed to comply with tb
conditions of his policy.
Mr. Gruver brought suit to recover. Upon
tbe trial the company brought experts t'
prove that the risk upon Mr. Gruver's prop
erty bad been greatly Increased by tbe erec
tion of the adjoining buildings. This test!
mony was ruled out, the Judge telling the
jury thst the question of increased risk was
one for them to determine, as was also lb
question as to whether the fact of tbe in
creuso was within Mr. Gruver's knowledge.
The jury returped a verdict in Mr. Gruver's
favor for $3,369. An appeal was taken ta
the 8upreme Court, which Tuesday sustain
ed tbe lower court.

The Coal Trade.
Philadelphia Ledger, May 1st: The aitua,
tion in the anthracite coal trade it practi
cally unchanged. The companies are rigor
ously enforcing half time ot the mines, and
will continue this policy for the next two
weeks, and most probably until the end of
May Every exertion is being mode to
keep the oUtpnt down to the demand for
coal, which while exhibltlcg8omesIightac-
tivity for tho larger sizes used for lurnaces
and manufacturing purposes, is still very
dull lor domestic sizes. There is the usual
shading from circular prices reported, and
orders for Eastern shipment are scarce, mak
ing business dull at Port Richmond, where
few vessels are loading. As comparison is
now made with the period last year, when
half time was enforced, the disparity iu Ihe
production Is not so great as It was a few
weeks back. The shipments are now not
quite 400,000 tons behind last yeur. There
is no change worthy of note in the situation
ol the bituminous trade. The Cumberland
strike is yet unsettled.
The total tonnage of antbracito oal from
all the regions for the week ending April 22,
aa reported by the several carrying compan-
amounted to 594,619 tons, against 409,-
024 tons in the corresponding week last year,
an increase of 186,595 tons. The total
amountof anthracite mined for the year is
7,314,079 tons, against 7,693,920 tons for the
same period last year, a decrease of 379,8 II
tons.
Sustaining Wllkesbarre's Mayor.
At the February election for a Mayor of
Wilkesbarre, in 1880, Thomas Rroderick re-
ceived 1,303 votes, W. V. Loom is 1,358 and
W. Harrison, 106 votes. Broderick was
therefore returned elected with a plurality
of 35 votes. His installation was contested
by Loomis.who claimed that 45 persons bad
deposited tbelr ballots who were disqualified
and 98 others who had not paid a city tax
for two years bad also voted. Tbe Luzerne
county Court permitted an examination nf
tbe 48 ballots but nono others, it having
been decided that tbe 96 votes referred to
were lawfully received and counted. Tbe
46 votes, however, ware declared illegaland
upon examining the ballots it was discover
ed that 24 of the fraudulent ballots were for
Ilroderick, 19 for Loomls, and 1 for Harris
in, 2 not being found. Tbls deduction did
not alter the result of the election. An ap
peal was taken to the Supreme Court by
the contestant, claiming that tbe court be
low had erred in refusing an examination
of the 96 ballots. In up opinion filed in
the Supreme Court sitting at Philadelphia,
Thursday of last week, tbe decitiou of the
luwer court was affirmed.-
