MRS. MORGAN POWELL,
The Willow of a Molly DInguiro Victim

Mrs. Mary l'owoll, widow of tho la'o
Morgan Powell, who was killed wbon the

regions, some twenty years bro, died at too
residonco of her son-in-law, Wm. Ilatrick,

o'clock on Saturday night. Tho decoased
hud beon ailing for tho past few yoars with
pulmonary troubles, and for throo wooks
was unablo to leavo her bed. Tho end
came peacefully. Surrounded by her
children and grandchildren, this afflicted
woman gave up her spirit to its Maker.
The doath of Mrs. Powell recalls a tragic
ovent which occurred on Doc. 2, 1871. Iter
husband, Morgan l'owoll, was superintend
ent of the Lehigh Coal & Navigation
Company's mines at Summit Hill, Be

the fatal day, whilo on his way to the
company's office at Summit Hill, he was

tho l'ottsville jail. For tho murder of
Powoll, "Yellow Jack" Donohuo was
hanged at Pottsvillo. Alter the doath of
her husband, the deceased continued to

H 0 THE Sncws thinks
thai if I haven't got
BufOcient courago to
make an exposure ot
tho compaoy store
business I had better
peter out mysolf. The
S'news wants tho
facts. The fact is the preliminaries are al
ready In tho hands of the P. & It. O. & I.
Co. and "Peter," llko tho S'news, is await
ing developments. But tho S'news may
rely on it, that the maltor will not be arbi
trated In the customary South Main street
saloon rendezvous.
Point number two for tho people The
Piieics is tho professed frind of the
laboring man and miner. Professed, I
say, for It is nothing moro. Now asido
from railing attention to the fact that the'
S news is slapping at the Herald because
tho 11 e it alu is slapping at the abortion
company stores, lot us call attention to an
incident that doveloped during the Her
ald's fight pgainst tho Lost Creek store.
One day a gontleman prominently iden
tified with the latter institution called at
the Herald office, and after placing upon
a desk a pockotbook bulging with green
back?, said ho would liko to secure twu
columns of tho Herald at its own price,
and alio desired to hayo considerable job
work done. Tho gentleman wasdocisively,
but firmly, told that tho Herald was not
for sale. A tow days later the i"neif pub
lished two columns of company store
matter.

The street and law committees of tho
Borough Council woro to have mot tho
partios Interested as tho ptincipals and
witnesses In tho case of Conctab'e Phillips
against the borough last night but tho
mooting was postponed at the last moment
to to-morrow evening, when tho Borough
Council will hold a regular meeting. Mr.
Phillips claimed damages against tho
borough for not having tho street in front
of his roiidenco properly drained. Tho
ciso will be an interesting one.
I riao to correct a false idea harbored by
somo of our townsmen and some who are
not our townsmen. Thoy aro people
wboso sense of prido leans towards Mnh
anoy City and who are ready to jump up
and cheor for that town on all occasions
when thoy deem It proper to do so. Thoto
pooplo are now boasting thst tho choir
singers of this town wore annihilated by
tho einjors of Mahanoy City, This is not
the fact. Shonandoah had noithor choir or
gleo club at Lakesido on Monday, It is
true that a fow, and very few, too, singers
of town wore in tho combined Wm. Ponn
choir, but that organization was not made
a Shenandoah competitor on that account.
Some of tbos!nger8ln tho Mahanoy City
societies are also residents of Shenandoah
V
A young woman of Luzerne county has
had her lover arrested for attempting to
hug her, whilo thoy were out buggy riding.
Tho msgistrato was greatly puzzled over
tho case, as It was something not provided
for in tho statute books, but ho finally con
cluded to bind ovor thu young man to keep
the peace. This seemed satisfactory to the
fair plaintiff and ought to provo effectual
In debarring the defendant from any
further demonstrations. What effect it
will bavo on other young men will remain
to be seen, It is to be feared, howovor,
that the demand for livery horros that can
be driven with one hand will bo totally
annihilated, at lcait in that section of the
country. Young men will only bo por-
fectly sate from all temptations by engag
ing borsos that require constant attention
and tho uso of both arms.
...
It is said that ono of tho olectioneerers
for "Jimmy" Boilly, of town, tho Dom
ocratio candidate for the'Legislature In this
district, has usurod him that Hazleton Is
all aight and New Philadelphia will bo in

AN OUTRAGEOUS ASSAULT.
Three Jewish Orntlemen llouchly Handled
by .St. Clair Men.
Last evening's Pottsvillo Chronicle pub
lished the following concerning nn assault
made on threo Jewish gentlemen:
Tho Heading train which arrived here
from Frackvlllo last ovonlng at 8:17 o'clock
was tho scene of an outrageous and unpro
voked a8iault on threo Jowish gentlomon,
by men who were said to bo members of
tho Perseverance Band, oi St. Clair.
On tho arrival of the train in Pottsville
tho threo gentlemen came into tho Chron
icle offlco. M. Katchrinski and "V. Kol'o
wich, two well-known citizens of town,
wero of tho party. The other gentleman
was J. Loronz Katchrinski, a wealthy
tnorchant of Shreveport, Louisiana, and a
brother of our townsman.
All threo men woro very much oxcitod
and blood was streaming from a deep
wound In tho back of M. Katchrinski's
bead. Ilia silk bat was ruined and his
clothes woro in a stale of disorder. His
brother's clothei were in tho sarno condi
tion, whilo tho wearer was so nervous that
ho could hardly stand.
These brothers, who came over to this
country many years ago from Kmsia,
Poland, and had done well, had not seou
oach othor lor 45 years and Lorenz had
come north for tho purpose of eoeing his
brother and sister, tho latter being the wife
of Mr. Itefowlch.
Yesterday tho threo gentlemen wont to
Shenandoah to yisit friends thnre, and
were returning on the train which leaves
Frackyille at 7:42. There were four cars
on tho train and all wero crowded, mostly
by people who bad been attonding tho dif
ferent picnics in tho Mahanoy Valley,
The Perseverance Band, of St Clair, had
bom at the band picnic held in Girardvillo,
There were many drunken men aboard tho
train, and when tho band struck up a tune
there was wild hilarity in ono car.
It was the misfortuno of the threo
Jowish gontlemen to bo In this car, but
thinking the men only a little elevated on
joyed the sport. When tho band stopped
playing some one struck Mr. Katckrimki's
high hat. Then another bit it, and finally
with a violent blow comp one, a member of
the band, knocked the tile on tho fl or.
Thon Mr. Katchrinski tried to remon
strate with the drui.kon men, but while ho
was talking bo received a violent blow on
tho back of the head from the bass drum
which made tho blood flow copioui'y,
Whilo ho was boing troolod in this out
rageous manner his brother from Louisiana
was being roughly handled. Ho wore a
long duster, This was torn opon. One
man grabbed for a diamond stud and
another tor his watch. Failing to get these
tho mon4tried to got In his pockets. Tho
old gentleman struggled with his assailants
and all throo called loudly for holp.
Tho crowdod condition of the train pro
vontod tho'hrakeman from getting near and
the conductor was in another car collecting
tickots at the time. Finally tho gang, as
tho train nearod St. Clair, ceased to bother
the gentlomon and thoy reached Pottsvillo
in tho condition wo havo described.
All threo mon travel on milcago books
and aro determined to secure damages.
BASE BALL BOOM.
A New Local Team Under 'Squire Mouu-
Chan'g Mtmugouient.
It appears that cortain p!ayers of tho
regular Shonandoah baso ball club became
dissatisfied with tho managemont and
Squiro Monagban has beon called upon to
roorganize and manage tho club. Tho
'squire to-day announcod that ho had
selected tho following players : Horan, 0 ;
Knoff, p: McCary, est Ward, lb: Mulvy,
2b;Reilly, 3b; Toolo, If j Trovenus, of j
Heflron, rf j Gloary, oj Noone, 2b; Welch,
p. The club is prepared to meet all comors
and promises to glvp tho bost a good shake.
It is certainly a strong one.
Manager Monaghan tried to book tho
initial game with the Y. M. O. A. club, of
Pottsvillo, but an answer to a letter for a
dato said, "Am very sorry, but we cannot
give you a dato." Manager Monaghan
says that It is not necessary for the Y, M,
O, A, manager to go to Philadelphia for a
club, as he can find dofeat at tho hands of
our new organization.

TO COMPLETE
A BELT LINE
OP ELECTRIC RAILWAYS IN
THE TWO VALLEYS.
A HINT AT THE PROPOSED PLANS
A Loop That Will Tako in Maha
noy Piano, Gilborton, Shonan
doah, Wm. Ponn and Lost
Crook.
SHtwpnHE directors of tho
Mahanoy Uity, onen
andoah, Glrardvlllo
and Ashland Railway
Company mot here
recently and discussed
suggestions looking to
the completion of tho
electric belt lino be
tween Girardvillo and Mahanoy City,
wheroby all the towns in tho two valleys
between the points will be put in direct
communication with each othor, and ul
timately make an electric railway connec
tion of the two valleys with Ashland and
LocUBt Dale.
The diroctors were not willing to make
known their plans in detail, but they havo
given assurance that they have plenty
m noy for tho work and that it will bo
pushed without delay. The branch be
tween Mahanoy Plane and Mahanoy City
will be flnisbod first.
Immediately upon the complotion of
work on that section tbo road from Girard
villo to ABhland and Locust Dale will be
taken in hand and pushed as fast as work
men can mako it go. Tho iron for the
bridge is at Girardvillo. This bridge will
bo the connecting link betwoon Girardvillo
and Ashland.
Tho work to follow that above enumer
ated and which will almost complete the
belt line will be on the section between
Girardvillo and Mahanoy Piano. This
work will come in last. The accompany
ing diagram giyos an idea of the proposed
bolt line.
The last link of tho bell will be tho
branch between this place and St. Nicholas
Just what route will be laid out for that
link has not been decided upon. The'
directors favor a trostling on East Oak
street to Bjvvora, northwardly on tho latter
street, and then eastwardly on Centre
Btreet to Ellengowan. The disadvantage
of this route would be the cutting out of
the Lehigh Valloy depot from the electric
line. Two other routes aro suggested, Ono
from Main street down Centre to Plum
alley; north to Lloyd; ea6t to Bowers;
south to Contro; andthen east to Ellen
gowan, Tho third route suggested is east on Coal
street to Emerick; south to Centre; and
oast to Ellengowan.
None of these routes, it is understood,
havo been docidod upon and, as the Shen-andoah-St.
Nicholas route will probably
bo tho last upon which work will bo started
tboro is still ample timo to consider the
various suggestions and detormino which
will bo the moro practicable and the most
convoDiont and advantageous for tho
public.
The company hu ordered a dczjn moro
cars and additional dynamos will bo put In
the power house at once.
