making a thorough
can VMS of tho county and returned to town
lo-day in order to rest over Sunday. Ho
Hiys he finds tho mun in overy placo ho visits
.very anxious for organization, but in each
Instance there seems to bo a will but no way.
They aro all anxious to join, but each man is
waiting for tho other to tako tho initial step.
This has beon ono of tho principal sources
of dlscouragomcnt, but it now teems about
overcome and within a short tlmo tlicro will
be a number of thriving hranchos of tho
association in this county. Thus far tlicro nro

will organize; Tuesday evening tho Gllbcrtou
loon will get together; on Wednesday the
Mahanoy City men will falvCnto line; next
Thursday tho Shenandoah men will meet
for regular business and it is qulto likely that
the advisability of establishing a branch for
each colliery will bo discussed; on Friday
noxt tho Colorado branch will hold Its first
regular moetlug and on the same night Mr.
Harris will organize a branch at Lost Creek;
to-morrow (Sunday) oveulng tho Polos and
Lithuanians of Shenandoah will establish
branch of their own.
No ono hut myself knows tho trouble I
havo experienced in getting the movement
on foot," said Mr. Harris to day. "I entered
upon tho work becauso men on all sldos told
mo thoy woro waiting for the word, but when
I stepped forward I found but a small per
ccntago of them willing to help arrange tho
preliminaries and for a time I was very much
discouraged. Another diillculty I encoun
tered was deception. In several instances I
met men who greeted mo cordially and urged
mo on in what they said was good work, hut
later I found out they really had no sym
pathy with tho cause. For instance, the
other night a man urged mo to hold a meet
ing at a certain placo and volunteered to take
several of my notices of meeting and havo
them properly distributed and postod. On
tho night designated I was surprised upon
reaching tho place to find that nono of tho
notices had been issued and tho handful of
men I found at tho placo said they received
their notice through tho nowspapers. I also
learned that the man who volunteered to do
so much for mo was an undcrboss In ono of
tho mines. But in splto of all thoso tricks
and tho discouragement I have succeeded in
planting a number of branches which will
soon prosper and lead to tho organization of
others."

about five o'clock last
evening nnd soveral
peoplo and horses had
narrow oecapos. John
Hazeldino, resident of
Catawissa valloy, spent
yesterday in town and
about tho hour above
named started up tho hill at tho north end
of Main street soatod iu a wagon drawn by
two horses. Just boforo reaching tho turn at
tho foot of tho stoop mountain road Hazeldino
stopped the horses and left them standing at
tho sido of tho road while ho wont to lok at
an object he saw near tho "Hookio" dam.
The horses stood quietly for a few mottinni
and then suddenly wheeled about and dashed
down the hill towards Main streot The
hoavy grado of tho road gavo tho wagon ureal
momentum and at times it threatened U
crowd down tho horses, but the latter kept to
their foot aud iu tho lead. At the side
Main street, in front of Johuson's lnraboi
yard, stood a horse and light wagon. The
vehicle drawn by tho runaways struck the
othor with such force as to knock it high In
to tho air and It fell upon tho back of the horso
which was crushed to tho ground and tom
porily stunned; but in a moment or two it ro
Kalnodits feet, brokoaway from thoupturned
wagon and dashod after tho runaways,
Tho liberated horses overtook tho team
at Coal street and then for about eight yards
the throe dashed along abreast. Tho he vy
wagon handicapped tho team, however, ant?
the third animal soon took the lea1. Away
they dashed down Main street with tho mi
burdeued horse in tho lead and the tw
"tbers trying to keep at his heels. The
heavy wagoTi slid almost from one Bido of th
street to tho other, now H would drop into a
rut, and tho noxt instant it would bound
high in tho air. Men, women and children
ssreamed as they sought safety in stores, and
theso who remained on the pavements ex
pected ovory moment to see collisions with
wagons aud teams standing along tho curbs,
but fortunately the runaways kept pretty
well in the centre of tho roadway. At The
comer of Main and Oak streets Hazcldine's
toam, being pretty woll winded, was cap
tured. Tho other horse was caught at tho
corner of Main and Cherry streots. When
examined ono of Hazeldlue's horses was
found to havo sustaluod a severe wound .
Tho broken point of tho wagon pole had
been jibbed into its side. Tho wound was a
terrible one, but tho horse remained on its
feet after tho polo was pulled oat and the
owner hitched it to the wagon again with the
other horso and started for home.
