course tho jurors are
"kicking" but Mr.
Peppor cannot bo
blamed. Ho is living up to tho law, and
thero Is no reason why jurors doing duty
at court should bo paid in any mannor
difforont to tho method in which coroners'

paid by orders tho County Commissioner
aro not so liable to forget the little odds and

Some litne ago I devoted ovor a column
to boguB campaign clubs, touching upon
tho objects and tho modus operandi. Tho
articlo was calculated to bring a blush to
tho .cheok of tho ordinarily constructed
individual, but I find wo havo some people
in, town who were no more nffectad by it
than an elophant is when a finger is jibbed
against his hido. Let tho candidates steer
clear.of tho campaign pastimes. Tho man
who buys tickots for them may frequently
find "a cat in tho bag." Of course all en
tertainments given during a campaign
season are not bogus. If tho candidates
keep their "smellers" clear they can de
tect tho bogus articlo a milo away.

The yeterans will be the observed of ob
servers at Washington next week. No one
can march in the groat procession but tho
veteran; and he will feel as proud as the
little boy whon he put an his first pair of
pantaloons. All could not be soldiers when
the country's safety was at stake. Some
couldn't becauBo they couldn't, and others
couldn't becauso they wouldn't? but nono
will begrudge the old soldier the honors
that may be showered upon him at "Wash
inglon. They are getting old and the time
will, soon come whon thoy, like their deeds
of valor, will pass into tho' archives ot
memory.
Watkin Waters Post will represent
Shenandoah in tho ranks at Washington.
This organization comprises mon who
soryed in different capasities during the
war, in the infantry, cavalry, artillery and
the navy. No companies went out from
Shenandoah, because the town was is its
infancy at the time and had no men that
could be drawn for duty. Tho Post ox
pects tosond at least 60 men to Washing
ton, but the number may bo InCreasad to
75 before tho hour for departure arrives on
Monday morning, next.
I have gleaned the following informa
Hon concerning tho Methodist Epioopal
church in Schuylkill county from tho
official census reports of ISM) : Number of
organizations, 20; church edifices, 18
seating capacity, 9,700; valua of church

There is very little being said about the
threatened strike on tho 'Philadelphia and
Heading Hallway system, but I glean
sufficient to lead mo to the conclusion that
a general "tie up" may happen at any
moment.
V
Tho public in general appreciate th
efforts of tho ItEriALD to bring tho officials
and citizens of the borough to a stern reali
zation of the sanitary condition of the town
The example set by Allentown should bo
followed. Nine Inspectors have been aD-
pointed whose duty It is to go from house
to house to inspoct the premises and got tho
capacity, drainage, sinks and garbage ays
tern and tee whether the boues are in-
fectod by any contagious disease. Thus
far the Inspectors have met with good suc
cess. The people appreciate tho situation
and willingly give the required informa
tion.
T, L. . . ..
xi mu momuers oi tno sanitary com
mittee will oil at the Herald offico they
will bo shown two overflowing cesspools
within a Hone's throw of tho Hkrald
building, but located close to tho kitcbons
of tho houses with which they are con
nected. Ono oT tho properties is owned bv

I soo a subscription has beon started in
Washington, D. 0., to raise flOO.000 to
purchase a homo for Sullivan and provide
him with an income "It is to bo a popu
lar a fl air, each subscriber to elve the sum
f one dollar," says an exchange. Woll,
groat Oorbett, whoa will the brains of fools
wear out? Let us imagine a paragraph In
the newspapers;
"Sorvico was opened by One-oyod Galli-Run,-
who made nn impressive address,
while Snlpsay Twister went around with
tho basket and took up a collection for the
Home for Defeated Fuiii."
The Sullivan suggestion is a parody on
benevolence.

ANOTHER INJUNCTION.
The Electric Itullway Company Stopped
Again To-day.
The Mahanoy City, Shonandoah, Qiratd
ville and Ashland Strof t Hallway Company
put a gang of mon at work this morning to
extend Its line down Main street from the
present terminus. The rails and sills for
tho oxtonsion were put on tho itroots last
Fridvy and Saturday.
Tho work progressed very favorably all
morning and by noon the men had a trench
extending from the terminus to Oak street
almost ready for the sills and rails.
At 1 p. m. to-day Deputy Sherifl
Solliday arrived from I'ottsville andstopped
the work,'
Tho stoppage was effected by tho service
of injunctions upon Vico President and
Man8ger W. F. Sadler, Jr., and tho bosses
in cbargo of the work.
Mr. Sadlor stopped the work at once and
within ten minutes tho business people
along South Main stroet were up in arms.
"What does this mean?" "Who stopped
tho work?" "Why can't wo havo tho
benefit of the road as well as the people on
North Main street?" "Its an outrage."
"What kind of a Council havo we got?1
were tho indignant exclamations.
It was learned that this morning Borough
Solicitor l'omeroy hied himself down to
Pottsvillo and caused an injunction to bo
issued upon tho allldavits of the street
committee.
Mr. Betteridgo, a member of the street
committee, denied any responsibility for
tho injunction this afternoon. Ho said,
"They came to me and wanted mo to sign
a paper, but I told them it was time for
some ot tho others to do something.
"And, another thing," continued Mr,
Bottoridge, "I want it understood that 1
did not authorize tho dumping of that
stiff on Contro street. When the second
load was dumped I protested against it."
As Mr. Betteridge was talking a gentle
man asked him if ho would sign a petition
calling for a special meeting of tho Bor
ough Council to act on the -electric railway
matter. Mr. Betteridge said bo would.
Whon the Hekald went to press almost
every business man on South Main street
was scurrying around getting up petitions
to got Council to meet to-night and take
action on the electric railway matter.
A Sanitary Appeal.
Editou Hkkald : I hope your sug-
geitions in regard to a Board of Health
will bear fruit. Thero must certainly be
some way in which a community can
oniorco suca sanitary measuros as are
essential to the health ot its. inhabitants.
The fact seems to bo overlooked that Shen
andoah is in as great danger from tho
cholera plague as any spot in this country.
No town of its siae receives so largo a
proportion of the very class of foreigners
Among whom it is doing its deadliest work
as this. For this reason wo should be up
and doing. Whatever sanitary experts
may say in New York to quell the fears of
tho country, thore is ground to fear that tho
plague will do us more harm next summer
than it can do this fall, Let us have a
Board of Health and let tho town be
cleanod, that wo nuy be prepared for the
worst.

LIKE AN ATTACK
BY THE MOLLIES
AN ASSISTANT MINE BOSS
CAUGHT IN AMBUSH.
A GANG OF POLES AND HUNS
Waylay Him at a Lonely Plaoo
and Unmercifully Boat Him
While His' Companion is
Hold Captive.
OL1CK are on the
lookout for a gang of
Polos and Hungarians
who made a dastardly
attack on two men on
the hill above Indian
Ridge broaker, Satur
day night. One of the
men assaulted is an assistant insido foreman
r.t Ellongowan ' colliery. His name is
George Itichardson. He is a flro boss and
has charge of some of the mon who work
in the Ellongowah mine. According to
tho statements ot the victims the assault
was nothing lew thHn a wreaking of
vengeance becauso of some wrongs tho
assailants claim they havo suffered in the
Colliery.
Itichardson and a friend named Thomas
Frott ttarti'd from town for their homes in
Ellungow an Saturday night. When thy
got on top of tho hill above the Indian
Itidgo colliory sivoral unknown Polish and
Hungarian men sprang flora the bushes at
tbo side of tho road and attacked them.
Frost was seized, dragged into tho lushes,
and hold captive. Ho was not injured
badly, and it was evident that the men had
remained in ambush for tho solor purpose ot
attacking Itichardson.
tor several minutes nicnardson was
boaton by tho gang. Frost made several
efforts to get to his assistance, but his cap-
tdrs held him fast and threatened to boat
him if he did not remain quiet. When
Itichardson was .almost beaten to insonsi
bility the gang ran off and disappeared
',er the hill. Frost thon assisted Richard
son to his home.
Itichardson is confined to his homo and
is in a critical condition. He says that as
tho men wero beating him they exclaimed,
''You giyin me good job now,
-j" "I makin you givin mo good
lob;" " boss no good."
Tbo victim says that the assault was so
sudden he didn't have timo to see who tho
men wero, but he believes that he can get
trace of thorn.
Tho occurrence has created quite a stir
and should the police succood in arresting
the offenders tho casos will be pushed to tho
bitter ond, as such business savors too
much Of tho reign of terror of years ago to
be allowed to pass with ordinary punish
mont.

THE SOLDIERS' MONUMENT
Nearly Ono Hundred More 1'lcilged to
tho J'tltKl.
The movement to raise a fund for a
soldiers' monument in town Is steadily
gaining ground and substantial subscrip
tions aro ooming in every day. The fund
has now almost reached the $260 mark.
Henry Uorncastlo Camp, No. 49, Sons of
Veterans, stepped gallantly to the front
la-t night and made a splendid pledge.
The camp is enthusiastic over tho projsct
and (be members, Individually and collec
tively, have determined to work heart and
soul for Its project.
The camp has appointed a committee to
help tho work along and the amount it has
pledged Is subject to an increase. Tho
committee appointed is as follows: M. T.
Milia, J. K. Boyer, Frod. H. Hopkins, Jr.,
W. Willman. D. Daddow, G. M. Dawson,
and L. Hopkins. .
Thu far there Is only ono discovery of a
division of sentiment on the project, and
that comes from members of a society who,
want tho monument placed in ond o( Vhe
cemeteries.
But tho popular cry is for 1,6 erection of
the monument in town. Some favor the
corner of Main and Centre Btroets, some a
site in front of tho High School building,
and others a siicj at tho north end of Main
street.
