JOHN P. BOACH DEAD.
The Miner Hurt at the Wilson Creek
Succumbed at Emergency
Hospital.
.Tolin 1. Roach, of whose fatal injury
mi account appeared In yesterday's
Tribune, died yesterday afternoon at
2 o'clock In Emergency hospital, where
he was tnken for treatment. Ho was
so weak, however, from loss of blood
that the surgeons did not atomnt to
operate on him, and his life slowly
elided away.
Mr. Roach was n native or Ireland,
and was about forty years of age. For
some years he was a resident of En
gland, but about eighteen years bko
immigrated to this country and settled
In Carbondale. He was employed as
a miner in Wilson creek mine, and
was known as a very careful work
man. Up was a member of the Dela
and Hudson Keg fund and of Court
Daniel O'Connell, Foresters of Amer
ica. He was a. man of strict integrity,
and among his fellow workmen and
other associates was held in high es
teem. Mr. Roach is survived by his aged
mother, still a resident of Ireland, and
a wife and four children as follows:
Margaret, Elizabeth, Catherine and
Leo, the last named being only four
years of age. Two brothers, Michael
and Thomas, and three sisters, Mary,
Ann and Catherine, all of Ireland, also
survive. The funeral urragnements
have not been completed, but the ob
sequies will probably be held Sun
day afternoon, interment being made
in St. Hose's cemetery.
Germanias Celebrate.
The Oermanla Singing society held
their usual Christmas jubilation in
thulr hall on Main street on Wednes
day evening. The festivities were
largely attended better so than ever,
and all present seemed to find great
enjoyment. The hall was handsomely
decorated, and in one end was a large
t'hrlstmus tree illuminated with can
dles and embellished with pictures and
trinkets. The evening was given over
to the children and for several oiours
they enjoyed themselves Immensely.
At 9 o'clock the "kinder" ,were formed
In line and marched around the room
several times. On passing the tree
they received a box of candy, an or
ange, some nuts or some little Christ
mas trinkets. Games and other
amusements were provided and the
little folks had lots of fun.
The members of the singing club
rendered a number of excellent selec
tions, Tinder the direction of Prof.
Saft, of Scranton, who also furnished
music for the dancing. There were
present at Wednesday evening's event
only the members of the Germanl.i
society and a few Invited guests.

"Jack nnd the Beanstalk" Is a Fine
Attraction.
"Jack and the Beanstalk," that fa
mous extravaganza which has been a
consistent nnd constant record break
er, will be presented at the Grand on
Monday evening.
The piece is now resplendent in a
bright new dress and has never been
shown to such favorable advantage.
The company presenting it Is said to
he the best in individual merit It has
ever had, and it is numerically strong
er than before. Its strength and at
tractiveness is duo largely to its clean
and altogether healthy tone and in tho
care which is taken to maintain It as
pre-eminently an entertainment to
give pleasure to children as well as
those of larger -growth. Its music.'
ballet and pictorial embellishment are
in themselves magnificent, and sufll
clent to give popularity of great de
gree. The melodies are rythmical and
have the rippling cadence that com
mend them to tho popular ear. The
ballets possess distinct beauty, each
In its own way, forming a series of
great attractiveness throughout.
Delicate' Operation Performed.
Dr. John Kelly yesterday morning
pei formed an operation on Domlnlck
Kllleen, of Brooklyn street, for an
abscess on the neck. The operation
took place at Dr. Wheeler's private hos
pital. Great skill had to be exercised
because of the many nerves and blood
vessels in the part of the body manipu
lated unon.
Mr. Killeen had beiii affected for
more than three weeks, and applied to
Dr. Kelly for relief. The physician at
once determined the nature of the
trouble and advised him to go to the
hospital. When the operation was per
formed an incision one and a halt
Inches deep was made, which opened
the ubscess. A large quantity of pus
was extracted. Tho doctor also found
that the pus had begun to spread and
had the operation not been performed
the patient would have been strangled
by the pressure of the swelling on the
windpipe.

greatly enjoyed by those present.
Candy nnd nuts wore served to thu
yomiKsters by Santa Claus, after the
entertainment, a sliver offerlner wai
announced to bo taken up to help de
fray the expenses of tho evening,
Druggist W, S. Hloes was in tho au
dlonce nnd offered to pay all bills that
had been contracted for the evening's
enjoyment. it Is needless to state
that the offer was promptly accepted.
Mr, Woes wishes to correct an error
that was penned by tho local Republi
can scribe, to tho effect that he had
receipted a bill for the supplies pur.
chased at his store. Buch was not
the case, as tho eoniiultteo made no
purchases at his store and his oftor
was to the effect that ho would puy
all bills contracted for that ovonlng's
entertainment, Including tho candy,
nuts, etc.
