Tho Polish and Hungarian cases which crowd tlio criminal calender each term havo been reached and this morning four car loads of principal witnesses and lawyers left tho Lehigh Valley derot for tho county soat. Ono of tho Shenandoah cases tried yester day was that of James J. Welsh against . An thony Lubit kis. Tlio latter was accused of entering upon tho Welsh premises and ad dressed them in tho most abusivo nud obseno languago, in addition to making an indecent oxposuro of Ills person. M. M. Burko, Esq., appeared for tho prosecutor and Lubiskis was represented by James SI. Carliu, Esq. It was tho latter gentleman's first appearance beforo tho bench as a pleader and ho succeeded very well. Tho jury was out sovcral hours beforo a vordlct of guilty was rendored. Tho main point hinged on whether Lubiskis, by hij con duct, had committed a public or a private nuisance. John Williams, William l'reston and Thomas IJevino, throo Shonandoah representatives ranging from 15 to 18 years of uge, wore called beforo tho bench and pleaded guilty to stealing two piston rods from tlio Kohlnoor colliery. The court remanded them to tho jail pending a consideration of tlioir previous characters with a view to determining what sentences shall bo imposed. A caso which has excited considorablo In terest In town is that of Frank Hess against John Brallcr. Both xnen aro in tho oxprcss business and the relation between them, through competition for public favor, havo not beon of a very friendly character. It is claimed that Brailcr has been tho most ag grcssivo becauso ho had been in the express business for years and had almost a. monoply of It until Hess started it soveral months ago, Ono day tho two men had an argument nt tho P. & R. freight deiot which resulted iu Brailer being sued for assault and battory. To-day a number of the depot employes went to Pottsvillo to appear as witnesses in tho caso. Last June Joseph Schalick was arrested in town by C. & I. Policeman Shirey, charged with being a vagrant. Schalick pleaded guilty to tho charge. 1 he court imposed sentenco of 90 days, but took into considera tion tho time tho man had been In jail await ing trial, which will bo deducted from tho sentence, and in fifteen days Schalick will bo ablo to tramp again. A number of small boys aro being tried at this term of court and tho question has been raised is tho byv regarding tho trial of chil dren under 10 years of ago boiug enforced. Tho act of June 12, 1693, provides that chil drou under 10 years of ago arrested for the commission of any crime, must bo tried alono in tho quarter sessions and their cases must bo kopt soparato from others. Iu jail they must also bo kept in a separato cell and not with older and moro mature criminals. Among tho cases settled at Pottsvillo yes terday wero two arising out of tho riot which occurred In tho First ward on Sunday, July 21st, last. Constablo Toomoy had oapiag for ono Joo Rakloss, who had jumpod his bail, and when tho ofllcer hoard that tho man wanted was visiting friends on Pencil alley ho attcmptod to mako an arrest. About thirty Lithuanian men and women In the house showed opiosition and declared that Kaklew should not bo taken even If ten oflleors should como for him. Toomey then wont for assist anco and returned to the house with ton special otllcers. A parley of five minutes followed, but Rakless and his friends declared that tboy would allow no arrest. Rakless picked up a carving knife and tho woman made a rush for tho otllcers and attempted to eject them. A general light ensued and at one time nearly fifty men and women wore on gaged in It. The officers finally won and took their man from the house. Subsequently five men and two women wero arrested on charges of resisting officers and creating a riot, and Constable Toomey was charged be fore Justice Williams with assault and battery by ono of tho women who had stood by Rakless. Yesterday all the cases settled, the Lithuanians paying all the costs, amount ing to $73.73. Married nt I'otUvllle. Hiss Mary II, Morgan, forraorly of town, was married yesterday to Mr. Frank B. Pott, of Leadville, Col., iu the Triulty Informed church at Pottsvll'e, Rev. J. F. Powers ofllol atlng. Miss 8. E. Fowler and It. II. Morgan of to in, tho latter a brother of the bride' were among tho atteudauts at the ceremony I Mr. and Mrs. Pott will live In Philadelphia. OBB'3 OBSERVATIONS. What Hi' Hens a id Ileum During 111 Travol by freight linos is vory uncertain, nnd if this meets tho oyo of any ono who con templates making a trip to tho World's Fair In or on a freight oar let lilm heed well tho warning sounded in tlio statement ono of our townsmen rondo to mo yesterday. This mer chant ordered a car load of oats from tho west and within a few days received a lottcr stating that tho shipment had boon inado immediate ly upon rccolpt of tho ordor. Aftor patiently waiting for tlio arrival of tbo oats for sovcral days tho merchant coucludcd to order an auother car, so it would bo on hand by tho time tho first car should arrlvo and be unload ed, Tho calculation was a shrewd ono, but not shrewd enough to clrcumvout tho frolght lino dolnys. On Monday car No. 2 arrived and yesterday car No. 1 was pushed on to tho siding after having boon on tho road twenty days. Reports from Blootnsburg aro to tho effect that tho registration for the fall term at tlio Bloomsburg Stato Normal school is tho larg est in tho history of tbo institution, which moans Unit although tho woods are full of pedagogues thoro aro still a largo number who think they can mako a living at school teaching. If tlio hopeful ones depend upon marriages to mako room for them, and tho other towns of tho stato aro tlio samo as Shenandoah, school teachers aro hound to lie como a great drug upon tho Pennsylvania markot. Tho number of Shenandoah femalo Bchool teachers who hare married during tlio past seven years barely over-renchos tho half- dozen mark. Tho Indications aro that tho approaching winter will bo a fairly good ono for tlio coal trade. Iu answer to a question, a prominent official of tho Reading raid that tho tounago for this year will likoly bo tlio saiuo as it was last year, but that wo aro now 1,000,000 tons ahead of tho market. Tho business depres sion of tho country will not affect tlio anthra cito coal trade to any great extent, for thorea son that 70 por cent of all tho anthracito coal mined is used for domestic purposes, and that demand exists right along, depression or no depression. Most of tho furnaces and manu facturing establishments outside of tho an thracito fields burn coko or soft coal. A good, steady, healthy trade may bo looked for this year. "Successful bu.'incss mcaro thoso who ad vcrtiso well," said Rev. Georgo Stanley Burn field during his discourse at tho North Pres bytorian church, Philadelphia. "It Is in curabent upon all who aro engaged in tho public enterprises of Qod or man," continued tho preachor, "to impress tho thousands by advertising to tho best advantage. Tliero aie somo who hold that tho christian church and Christianity should not seek publicity tlirougli tho press. From thoso I dissent. Through tho press I havo tho power to proclaim tho truth and to reach tho public in a way which is posslblo by no othor method. Some will always adhero to tho old way and old styles, and remain satisfied, but there arorcodern and better mothods. My opinion is that overy legitimate means should bo used to spread tho knowledge of tho gospel of God Suppose that wo are ablo to present some thing which is palatable and for which men hunger, how shall it bo possiblo for thorn to know it unless wo nd vcrtiso? Iu men tho faculty of curiosity is largely doveloped; and the intelligent uso of tho nowspapcrs is a cer tain method of reaching them," Regarding tho business men, Dr. Burnfleld assorted that tho most successful aro tboso who cater to the wants of tho best class, keep tho best goods, who are honest and who advertise. in your news columns tlio other day was noted a serious accident that occurred in town in uiuo, caused ny mo uniKos on an clectrio car failing to work on a hfavy giade. Tills accident should cause tho local electric railway employes to bo very careful. Asthoro aro ouo or two dangerous grades on this Hue, tho brakes on the cars should bo oxaminod more frequently. As a general thing newspapor men havo vory little of that commodity known "gall." But there aro exceptions, it is said to all rules, and the greatest exception to this rule is a county seat quill driver. When 1 cannot find anything bettor to read, I usually scan this particular editor's sheet. It has amused me to note his endeavors to be on the right side in reference to tho future course of President Harris, of the Reading company, One day he publishes exclusive knowledgo of tho resignation of Harris ; tho next day I read he will not resign, and the following day the public is informod, from this exelmive source, that tho Reading may loso Its president. Don't you see iko exclusive point? Noma-.tor what courso President Harris takes, this paper can claim exclusive previous knowledge, because no reliable editor will take three sides to a question. I have my doubts, though, about the genuineness of the interview, for the reason that the editor's "affidavit" Is not attached. Obb.
