court, wlioro tho tenants are Polish, Lithu
anian and Hungarian people, lias been re
vived by circulars of a ruoro plain and un
mistakable character. For some unknown
reason tho parties who have received the last
circulars will not give out any part of tho
contents. One man has admitted that tho
circular seems to havo como from the same
source as the first lot.
A large property owner said this morning,
"To save my life I cauuot see what these
anonymous people aro driving at. If the
property owners do secure all the licenses
thero is nothing to prevent their being trans
ferred if tho party to whom tlio transfer is to
bo made comes within tho requirements of
the law and rules of the court as to rcspeciAj
bility and responsibility. And I should thin
tho host method would bo to have the party
who is to conduct tho place appear before the
court in the first iustance and liave tho mat
ter disposed of. It looks to mo like a scheme
to double Uie expenses of tho property
owners."
A prominent Polish goHtlemaasaid in dis
cussing tho matter, "Oar people intend to
claim tho same rights at the next terra of
license court as other peoplo claim, and wo
aro making arrangements to soouro the ser
vices of lawyers to see that those right are
not abridged. I'll admit that tbe places con
ducted by our people and the Lithuanians
and Hungarians are becoming very plentiful,
but if tho owners are law abiding and re
spectable citizens and conduct their places as
required by law, I do not soo how the court
can exclude them from tho license privileges."
Another intelligent Palish man said, "The
thing seems to be a game of freeze out. Last
year and tho year before somo of onr people
paid cnermous prices to get possession of some
of the caloons, but they are not so foolish
now. They are willing to pay good prices
for good stands, and when they can buy tho
property with tho Btand they aro willing to
glvo fair value, but they seo that too much
Imposition has been attempted. It looks to
mo that there are eomo parties trying to forco
our pcoplo into buying their properties, by
putting out tho scaro that only property
owners will lie granted licenses.. Our peOplo
arcorganizod and wo will bo well represented

A largo number of applications from this
town for licenses have already been filed
with Uie Clerk of tho Court, and it is said
that they will number about thirty per cent,

they did at tho last.
SHAOKFORD HORSEWHIPPED.
A l'ulleu Court ' Sequel to a Theatrical
Failure.
A sequel to the failure of the Shaekford
Opera Company, whielt recently produced
"Said Pasha " at Ferguson's thoatre here, was
presented in a Now York police court yester
day. On April 29 Shaekford organized tho
Shaekford Opera Company to play "Faust Up
To Date " aud other comic operas throughout
Now York and Pennsylvania. Thirty people
wro engaged altogether, among them'being
May Shephard, whom Shaekford promised to
lay $18 a week for thirty weeks. Tho now
company did not meet with as much success
as its manager anticipated, and three weoks
ago It collapsed In Philadelphia, Shaekford,
by somo means, managed to raise funds to
start the corapauy on tho Toad again and it
got as far as Danville, where ho disappeared,
leaving the members stranded. Miss Shop
hard succeeded In getting to Philadelphia,
whencoshowas scut to her home in New
York by tho manager of tho Palace theatre.
On Monday Mlsa Shephard'g mother met
Shaekford in Now York aud horsewhipped
him. Tho manager retaliated by blackeuing
the woman's lea oye. Both parties were
arrested, but wero discharged upon with
drawing their respective complaints.

OBE'S OBSERVATIONS.
Whut lie Sees mid Hears During Ills
Travel.
Tho poultry dealers have a new wrinkle
this year. Iu the past it has been tho cus
tom for tho dealers to havo tho poultry killed
and dressed for salo. 'Tlioy claim that much
loss resulted from this method and this year,
with very few exceptions, tho customer must
be content with the raw material. The
poultry is alivo and Is killed and dressed
after tho bargain is mado. This change may
bo aocountablo for by tho scarcity of turkeys
in the market this season. Several farmers
were seen yesterday driving back to tho val
ley with llvo turkoys.
The foot hall fever has struck this town
and n'o less than half a dozen teams are In
process of organization. There Is material
In town for at least two good teams and there
is no reason why they should not boom tho
game this winter na base ball is in summer.
There aro inauy lovers of the sport in town
who would give the teams liberal patronage.
Many collieries in this and the surrounding
districts were idle yesterday for want of cars,
and it is said that frequent stoppages of the
collieries may be looked for until after the
opening of tho new year. It is scrai-officially
announced that all "dead work" has been
suspended until that time.
A Lehigh Valloy wreck crew from Delano
yesterday removed tho Philadelphia & Head
ing Eailroad car that was wrecked at Packer
Junction on Friday last, to the P. & It.
shops. P. J. Ferguson, by tho way, denies
that tho railroad company paid Mies
Cleft and tho theatrical company with which
she was connected $500 each in settlement of
claims for damages, but declines to say
what amount was paid.
In accordance with the preclaniation issued
by tht State Councilor, Major Jemniugs
Council, No. 37, Jr. O. U. A. M, of town,
will attend divine services on Sunday even
ing next. Rev. D. I. Evans, of the Welsh
Baptist church, will deliver the discourso in
the above church. I think tho organization
has mado a wise selection, for they will un
doubtcdly hear an able end eloquent sermon.
One of the interesting peoplo' who hate
recently taken up a ruadence in tfcis town is
Frank Leu, a Chinaman who has lived In
America for several years and has become
'quite Americanized. He has abandoned the
attire of his native land and dresses in a
neat-fitting black dross suit. Frank
lias Usui in San Francisco, Chicago and
Bethlehem. Ho now has a laundry and a
store for the sale of Japanese articles, ein'
ploying two men there. While in Chicago
Frank attended the Baptist Sunday school
and acquired a knowledge of the English
I language that enables him to speak and rind
it quite well. Ho eventually became a mem
ber of the church. While in Bethlehem he
was a regular attendant at the Reformed
Sunday school. Frank has opened a laundry
on West Centre street and, should ho meet
with success, will Soon odd to It a department
for the sale of Jupaneso goods, no has bo
como suificlently Americanized to know the
value of piintcrs' ink and in the use of it he
shows ho has a level head.
"There aro no Hies on you, Frank," said a
IIkhaij) reporter yesterday.
"No, him no fly on him," replied Frank,
with a business-like wink.
Tho painters are now putting tho finishing
touches on the White stroet school building,
and the etructure represents a very
creditable appearance. For loss than two
thousand dollars the School Board has
succeeded in saving tho enormous expenso
that would havo resulted If tho present
building had been torn down and a new one
built. The present structure is now an
ornament to tho eastern part of tho town in
which the eoplo can take pride.

For all the kindness thou hast shown
To this fair land tho pilgrims trod,
This land wo fondly call our own.
3 Hero freedom spreads her banner wide,
And castH her soft and hallowed ray;
Hero thou our fathers' steps didst guide
In safety through their dangerous way.
4 Wo praise thee that the gospel's light
Through all our land its radiance sheds;
Dispels tho shades of error's night,
And heavenly blessings round us spreads
5 Great God, preserve us In thy fear;
In danger still our guardian bo:
O spread thy truth's bright precepts here;
Lot all tho peoplo worship thee.

PHILLIPS ON TRIAL.
Tliu (slayer or 'bqulro O'Donnell llelore
.1 u ry.
Constable Isaac Pliillltw, who is now on
trial for the murdei ot 'Squire O'Donnell, has
the appearance of a man who is broken
hearted, and a the story of the tragedy is
unfolded his bloodless face and downcast
eyes indicate that ho is suffering the keenest
pangs of remorse for his crime.
Tho first witness called was J. L. Booze,
landlord of tho Pleasant Hill Hotel, the place
where the quarrel began. He told substan
tially tho same story as the one given befora
tho Coroner.
Ferdinand Keiscr, father-in-law of Booze,
said he knew but little of tho quarrel. Ho gavo
Phillips two glasses of beer and O'Donnell a
glass of whiskey. He also heard the me
quarrel hut was not present.
Mary Harkins was passing the hotel and
heard the men wrangling.
She saw Phillips come out and go home.
Shortly after the 'Squlro and Mr. Booze cams
out and started for home. On tho way they
met Philliia. She saw O'Donnell strike at
Phillips, when tho latter drew a revolver and
fired. When the third shot had been fired
both men fell to tho ground, with O'Donuell
on top.
Kial O'Donnell was about sixty yards from
the combatants when the firing took place.
They were close together when the bullet
entered the body. Mr. O'Donnell ran up to
tho prostrato form and unbuttoned the
Bhirt. The 'Squire gasped several times and.
expired iu the road.
Mrs. Bella Mayers, of Pleasant Hill, 'ave-
hcr evidence in Polish. She faw .the sheet
ing and heard Phillips' daughter appeal to
her father not to shoot after he had. firea the
second shot. After th third shut. O'Donnell
ran about thrco feet towards Phillips.
O'Donnell fell over his slayer. Mrs. Phillips
then came out and took her husband home.
Susan Monday : I live at Pleasant Hill
with my sister, next door to Mr. Phillips. I
heard tho second shot aud ran out front. I
saw Phillips hold his revolver up and
O'Donnell shield his face with his hand. At
this time they were almost opposite Phillips'
houso ; after tho third shot O'Donnell throw
up his hands and grasped Phillips as ho fell.
O'Donnell, after the first shot was fired, held
his arm over his head, aud stretched forth his
other hand as if reaching for the pistol. The
'Squire died a few moments after tho bullet
struck him. There was very little time
cUpsed between tho first and last shots. I
heard Miss Phillips call to her father, "O.
Top, don't fire."
On cross-oxaminatiou tho witness said that
she only knew three shots had been fired
from hearing people say so. Shortly before
7 o'clock she heard the 'Squire ask a driver
for a ride to Silver Brook. Ho was then,
near Hoozo's saloon. Tho shooting took place
about 8:20.
Henry Nader said that he was a night
watchman at No. 4 ; at about 2 a. m. he ssiw
'Squire O'Donnell leave his work and go to
the engine houso. He left tho colliery at 6
o'clock.
Captain S,S. Simpson: I live at Jcanesville
and am a C. A 1. policeman. I was called by
telephono to Pleasant Hill, aud when I ar
rived thero I went to Phillips' house. He sur
rendered to me, and a man named Roberts
handed uie the revolver.
Tho witness here produced tho revolver,
which is a 32-caIlbre, five chambers, two
chambers of which are still loaded.
Michael Kelly: I live next door to Phillips
I wa3 in bed asleep and was awakened by a
noise in the street. I went out, put my hand
on Phillips and told him to give himself up.
Ho aked me to take him over to 'Squire
Kantner, at Lofty. I at once telephoned to
Capt. Simpson, at Jeauooville.
