Tho Reverend Gentleman Glor iously Surprised by his Parish ioners Whe Presented Him a Handsomo Purse. HE ovent that took place in tho hall of tho Annunciation T. A. II. Society will always bo remembered as ono of tho most brilliant and effectlvo incidents connection with tho Annunciation church, aud Rev. II. F. O'Reilly, who yesterday reached tho twenty- fifth anniversary of his ordination to the priesthood, will always look upon tho event as ono of tho happiest of his life. For several days past tho parishioners of tho Annunciation church had been indus' trlously but quietly engineering soiuo plan but so well did they cover their movements and plans nono but those intrusted with the secret had tho slightest idea of what was to happen. Somo did not know until tho very moment, and ono of tho "some" was Rev. O'Reilly. Tho groat secret bloomed in a magnificent surpriso to that reverend gentle man, commomorativo of tho silvor jubilee of hispriesthood. Upwards of four hundred of tho parish ioncrs gathered In tho hall of tho Annuncia tion church last evening and patiently awaited tho report of-a cominitteo of fifty that had been sent to tho residence of Rev. O'Reilly to request him to go to tho hall and mako a few remarks upon the eventful day of his lifo. At tho same timo three bands, tho Grant, A. T. A. II., and St. Patrick, marched np to tho residenco and each tendered a serenade in turn. Tho visit of tho coramitteo was the first intimation Rov. O'Reilly had of tho parishioner's movement. Ho i entertaining several of the clergy from other places who had called to congratulato him. Rev. O'Reilly walked to tho hall, accoi panicd by Mr. P. J. Ferguson. Tho visiting clergy, tho committee of fifty and tho three bands followed. As tho honored ono of tho evening entered tho hall ho was cheered lustily, Tho men waved their hats and the women and girls waved their handkerchiefs. Tho large gathering was a second surprise. Tho visiting clergy took seats on tho platform surrounding ono to which Rev. O'Reilly was assigned. The visitors were Rov. Fathers Ilrady, Beaver Meadow; Mc Govern, Port Carbon; Haunigan, Mahanoy City; McCullough, Girardvlile; Pottorson, Ashland, and Rov. McGinn, Mahanoy Piano Rev. Father Kane, also of the Annunciation church, was with them. When tho bauds on tho streets concluded their serenado Mr. J. J, Franey was called to tho front of tho platform by Mr. Ferguson and in a most able address mado known the real object of tho gathering, Unfortunately spaco cannot be spared for the address in full here. The tribute paid Rev. O'Reilly was a glowing one. Mr. Franey said: "Through this (the Catholic) church your lot was cast here In this inhospitable pieco of Columbia's land; the scenes, surroundings, discouragements aud discomforts you had to contend with I need not recount. That you have done your work well and faithfully is best shown by the record of your charge You brought order out of chaos. You havo our church property unincumbered and free from debt. You see your people happy, contented and prosperous, so mucli so that wo need not be envious of any. And this you, with just pride, can point to yourself. To your sound advice and prudent warnings In tho S3 years of your pastorate, to your credit bo it said, not ono of your flock lias boon found guilty of a capital or heinous crime in our courts of justice. This is verifying the statement that a good Catholic makes a good citizen, Not a society badge that Is under tho ban of tho church, tho emblem of disloyalty to you and your teachings, is worn by a member of tho congregation. No better proof is required of the devotion of your people to you, as well as their generosity, than when you made an appeal to them for suffering humanity, whother it wrs for an affliction in our own country, or state, as for instance, Johnstown, or In your oppeol to the Irish cause. Thoy havo always met with prompt and liberal re sponses. Aud now, on this 25th anniversary, wo have met to-night to express our respect, our confidence and our admiration for you, as a man, a citizen, and an exemplary priest; and in starting you for tho goal, or your second or golden jubilee, wo havo thought it would bo well to give you, in addition to our best wishes for your safe arrival, what is called an Irish luck penny. You will there fore please accept this humble token of our lovo aud esteem for you, with tho wish that your days may bo long in the land, your use fulness undiminished, and that you be spared to us Is tho ardent desire of your affectionate and grateful people." Mr. Franey handed Rev. O'Reilly a bag containing about $085 In coin and nt tho samo timo called attention to a ten-dollar bill attached to tho neck of the bag with a slip of paper bearing tho words: "The com pliments of Mrs. Grant, as a token of Scotch friendship." Applause followed and Mr. Franey was warmly congratulated by tho clergy and others about tho platform on tho ablo manner in which he had acquitted him self. Then tho three bands struck up tunes, one of them being in tho hall, and at tho Bamo timo there was a grand display of fireworks at the Grant mansion near by. Several minutes elapsed before Rev. O'Reilly could respond. He was ovidently deeply affected, but ho spoko in a deliberate, conversational tone aud mado an exceedingly graceful acknowledgement of tho gift. It a genuine surpriso to tho reverend gentleman and ho said that had he known there was to havo been such a demonstration in his honor by his parishioners ho would not havo been found in town last night. Ho had intended leaving town yesterday morning to visit a sick member of the clergy, but some of his parishioners, by somo very plausible statements, managed to induce him to re main. At times tho clergyman was quite humorous. In referring to tho bag of coin ho evoked laughter by saying, " I supposo this looks much bettor inside than it does outside." Ho also said that tho anniversary had brought to his mind many sorrowful recollections, particularly when he looked back to the time of his ordination. Only four pastors, of tho archdiocese of Phlladel phla of twenty-fivo years ago, aro alive. When Rov. O'Reilly concluded his remarks ho was invited to the old T. A. B. hall, where a banquet was prepared. As he crossed the floor to leavo the room, followed by tho guests of tho evening and tho parishioners Rov. O'Reilly stopped aud taking tho hand of Mjno Inspector Stein said in a tono of voico that could bo heard by all that in making his acknowledgement he had failed to state that during his residence of twentythreo years in the town somo of his warmest and most agreeable friends were among tho Protestant people. Tho banquet hall proton ted a gorgeous op pearanco. Three great, long tables were olaboratoly spread for two hundred people, but before tho close of tho evening eight hundred must havo partook of tho hospi tality of tho committee. Tho walls and ceilings were handsomely decorated with American flags, bunting anil banners of all descriptions and presented a strikingly patriotic appearance. Tho 6uppcr was first class and was served in oxccllent style, to tho credit of tho committee, Mrs. Jamos Duffy, Mrs. John A. Reilly, Miss Mary Mc Donald, Miss Mary Laljy, Miss Ellio Conners, Miss Katio Jennings and Mr. Michael King, tho caterer. The decorations were tho result of untiring efforts on the part of Messrs. Michael Muldoon, Thomas Cyan and Michael Bcgley. Tho commitco that had chargo of the ar rangements for the presentation comprised tho following gentlemen: P. J. Ferguson, John A. Reilly, M, Mellct, J. J. Franey, B. J. Monaghan, M. D. Malono, H. J. Muldoon and C. J. Quinn. After tho banquet Rev. O'Reilly and tho visiting clergy retired to the parsonage, while a largo number of the parishionors re tired to Ferguson's hall and held a social gathering, during which they discussed what was pronounced one of the most brilliant events in tho history of tho Annunciation church. 'The Fairies' Well." The Philadelphia Itm in speaking of " Fairies' Well," which is to appear in Fergu son's theatro, to-morrow evening, October 20th, says: George Timmons as Teddy O'Nell won all hearts by his simple, natural stylo of acting. Mr. Timmons thoroughly understands tho part, and wo can scarcely help thinking tiiat he, in his own person, experiences tho vicissitudes of love, fortune and adventure which aro the share of the noblo warm-hearted Teddy. Mr. Timmons won loud applause for his dancing and singing, and was several times enthusiasti cally summoned beforo tho curtain, whero he met with an ovation. Now 1'liotogrupU Gallery.

FOLLOW THE RECENT KILLING ANTHONY McGUIRE. OP AN INQUEST HELD LAST NIGHT To Fix tho Responsibility for tho Oircumstancos That Led to the Accident at Kohinoor Colliery. T is quito likely that a law suit will grow out of the accident that re sulted in tho death of Anthony McGulro on the highway near Koh inoor colliery about ten days ago. McQuiro left his homo in Brownsville to come to town and visit friends. Ho was an aged and feeble man. Ho walked up tho path that runs up tho rock bank of tho colliery named and leads to tho public highway whero tho bor ough bridge crosses and whero a track run ning from tho colliery to tho rock bank runs. When McGuiro roached the top of the rath ho turned to tho left to cross tho track and was struck and killtd by a mino locomotive drawing a train of rock cars. McGuire's relatives havo placed tho matter in tho hands of Lawyor M. M. Burko. Last night tho in quebt was opened at tho house of Michael Peters, on Main street. Among the witnesses present were Thomas J. James, outside fore man of the colliery, James Glover, machinist, and Mr. Hoffman, who was running tho locomotive at the timo tho accident hap pened. These witnesses were cross-examined by Mr. llurke, after winch tho inquest was adjourned until Thursday evening. The relatives of the deceased maintain that thoy have a good claim for damages, ono of the grounds being that thero was no one station ed to warn people who might ascend the path of the approach of tho cars.

TlimnoH Upon Which The' Find Timr 1' Comment. Yesterday several people complaim il ' Chief Buigens Smith that a woman v . walking about the strests with a slok bal : her arms and the appearance oftherhih' indicated that it had scarlet fever. Ktmtl. found out that the woman was tho wife of Hungarian saloon keeper on South Main street. Ho notified the man and woman j keep the child in the house nnd was told that could not be done. Tho Burgess told thcni that if they did not do so he would prosecute them for maintaining a public nuisance. Th order has been obeyed. I am Informed that the contract for tho new water works will be ready for the Bor ough Council to pass upon on Thursday evening and that Quinn & Kerns propose to start work under it next week. Tho electric railway cars wcro run down Main street over the extension as far as Oak street yesterday and by to-morrow will prob ably be running down no Cherry. The street presents a far better appearance than was expected. The heaps of dirt that girded tho trench havo been cut away aud tho street has been cut down so that it is not as many inches above the top of the rail as it was ai first. Vehicles can now cross tho track- .a almost any point other than at the fuoC crossings. Councilman Scheiily says that most of the people on Main street have expressed willingness to pavo and he has no douht they will soon havo a petition beforo Council Tho reason tho electric railway compan-y suspended traflio over its line from last night until this evening was to give it time to make an important change at its power house afc Rappahannock. The 250-hors power dynamo that was received somo time ago ha? now been added to tho plant and will bo run in conjunction witli the two SO-horsc power dynamos that have been in use. The addi tional dynamo will enable tho company to operate tho entire system from Ashland to Mahanoy City. It Is expected that the ground work of the electric railway will be completed this even ing. Tho overhead work from Gilberton to St. Nicholas is finished and work has begun, on tho trestle at tho latter place. Tho Grant Band has decided that tho present condition of its treasury will not allow it to re-engago Prof. Zeitz as its in structor for this soason and Mr. John M. Schoppe, ono of tho Schoppe family who figure prominently In the band and as mem bers of tho orchestra bearing tho name, has been engaged as instructor. Tho sports who went to Ashland Monday night to see the Gibson-MeUalo "scrap'' were few in numbers aud the home atten dance was oqually as poor. In short, tho 'scrap" was a failure. When it was origi nally thrown upon the world tho announce ment was made that the fight would be be tween Gibson and Gallagher and that it would take placo at Alientown. Then a change of programme was made. "Jimmy" Mcllale, of Philadelphia, was anuounced as Gibson's opponent and the Ashland skating: rink was selected as the battle ground. To add interest to the matter it was also an nounced that tho "Athletic Club" of Ashland had hung up a purse for tho winner. As I am informed, Gibson did not like to meet Mcllale. Any ono who is at all posted on Pennsylvania sporting matters could hardly blame him. Mcllale is a professional pugilist of considerable fame and many scalps or defeated "scrappers" dangle at his belt. But Gibson's prejudices wero eventually overcomo by a quiet I?) undertaking that ho would be allowed to win on a foul. When they gathered at tho rink the attendauco was very small. Gibson folt discouraged because thero were not more people present. He did not caro about "going on" and Mcllalo wanted to see tho color of tho purse. Finally tho men were induced to spar six rounds for $50 raised in the rink and Mcllale finished tho work in less than three rounds. It was lucky tho Gibson admirers kept their money in their pockets this time that is lucky for themselves. Oiie.
