IN A FEW WORDS.
A Lively Writer Tells the Story of The
Happenings of a Week In and Abou
Old Carbon.
Lehigh Gap and vicinity Is the
most picturesque spot in tho Lehigh
Valley.
At many of tho cross roads in tho
lower end of tho county thoro aro no
index boards. They are a publlo ne
cessity and should bo supplied.
Tho enterprising people of Beaver
Moadow aro still In the strugglo for tho
honors of a borough. Beavor Moadow
is the oldest township In tho county.
The people of Weatherly think of
buying tho water plant in that town
It Is said that tho profits of the com.
pany ore lmmonse, and accordingly
there may bo a disposition among tho
stockholders not to sell.
Our old friend William Wehr, of
Wehr Post-office, writes us that Wm.
Mantz,of Schuylkill county, has a corn
stalk fourteen feet high. Mr. Wehr is
anxious to know if thoro is a Carbon
county farmer who can beat it. Trot
out your persimmon.
Tho Schwanawert Club, of Allou-
town, is at Long Pond, in this county,
on its twenty-fourth annual trip. The
party is composed of A. S. Wellor, A,
Berger, Charles Wolfe, Lewis and O.
W. Grammes and Jacob Wandel. They
will be out ten days, and they expect to
do some fishing.
It often happens that "chickens
come homo to roost," hence those who
meddle with other people's business
and try to make trouble often get a
dose of the samo medicine they pre
scribe for others. The mills of tho
gods sometimes grind slow, but never
theless exceedingly fine.
Constable Boyle, of Hazleton, was
at the Jeanesvllle strappings the other
day to arrest tough "Billy Walker," an
Italian boss, charged with shooting a
man in the former town. The Italian
got a glimpse of the officer, and sus
pecting his errand, escaped to the
woods. The dusky son (of-a-gun) of
Italian sunshine is still at large.
The new school house atPackorton
was opened the other day with thirty
pupils in attendance. This lively llttlo
tall end of a big township is growing,
and it's a wonder her people wouldn't
show snap enough to throw off her
swaddling clothes. They want to bo an
independent polling district, but why
not take first honors while about it.
There was a lively Italian shooting
affray at a place known as Spring Tun
nel, near Lansford, tho other day. One
Italian was shot by another, Inflicting
a painful if not dangerous wound in
tho face The bullet entered the mouth
and passed out through the cheek. Tho
Italian who committed tho deed took
to the mountains and has not boen
captured yet. The man wanted is five
feet six Inches tall, dark complexioned
and has block whiskers and mustache.
Martin Gallaghor, of Penn Haven
Junction, met with a serious accident
Friday. He and others were soatod on
a hand truck which was mounted on a
few railway ties alongside of the rail
road and near the river, when tho tios
suddenly gave way and Martin was
unexpectedly thrown down the steep
embankment into the river. Ho was
taken to St. Luke's Hospital, South
Bethlohem, where he will be treated
for a broken head and a badly bruised
cranium.

Daniel Rouse left on Tuesday for
the Democratic State Convention at
Harrlsburg.
Slatlngton, heretofore famous for
its excellent quality ot slate, seems now
to be more famous for its luscious
peaches.
-A new passenger engine Is in course
of building at the Weatherly shops. It
will take three weeks yet however be
fore she will be ready for service on the
road.
Messrs. Ashbel Hoffecker, S. A.
Croll and A. II. Horlacher were ' on a
pleasure trip to Slatlngton on Sunday.
From there they were taken to some of
the beautiful peaoh orchards of Lehigh
county.
-Our music loving people will have
an opportunity to near some good
muslo on the 12th instant. A musical
combination ot town will render the
cantata, entitled "Joseph's Bondage,"
in Cassler's Rink on the above date.
Peaches! Peaches! Any quantity
of them in this town. Five baskets of
luscious peaches were sold hero last
week for one dollar. Glut in the mark
et is the cause assigned for tho unpre
cedented low price realizod for such
fruit.
Our publlo schools will open ou
Sept. 8. for a nine month term. Three
now teachers have been ongagod for
the coming term ylz: James Long of
Reading, Minnie Friedenberger of
Tamaqua, and L. Irene Stager ot
Audenrlod.
Hissing ou boys to fight seems to
bo a favorite diversion for somo of our
pseudo-good people. The writer wit
nessed just such a thing on Tuesday.
It seems to me that these people could
cultivate at least their own perverted
feelings by encouraging things more
ennobling and refining.
lie's In Trouble Again.
Charley Johnson, who has completed
an eighteen month term in the county
jail for collecting newspaper subscrip
tions in Carbon county, claiming to be
a representative ot tho Coal Gazette
and Democrat at Mauoh Chunk, went
to Weathorly Thursday Jmoruing and
hired a horse and buggy fromKlstler's
livery stable stating that he wanted to
drive to Hudsondale. He took a young
man from Weatherly into the buggy
with him. When they arrived at Garra's
hotel, Quakako, ho Instructed the
young man to await his return and al
so told the proprietor to give his com
panion what drink he asked for, that
he would meet the bill on his return,
He has not returned and the police
are looking for him. A postal card,
without a signature, was received at
Weatherly Monday morning, saying
that tho horse was at Fair View. A
party was seat to that place. Johnson
had been In town a few hours only
whon he hired the horse, and was un
known to the livery man. No reward
Is offered for the return of the horse,
the thief seems to be the object ot the
surah.

On last Sunday John Durockl was mar

But the truth can bo told with safety, as
none of the Huns wero subscribers. The
