THE PYROTECHNIC DISPLAY.
Hrowory Anouts Have Their Aminnl
Parade The l'ollco Arrest Two
Shell nnmo Men Columbia
Hose Company's Picnic.
Tlio pyrotechnic displays that were post
poned Thursday night took place last night
nud for about two hours Main and Centre
streets wero In a blaze of glory. Sky
rockets, Roman candles and red flro were
set off In profuslou and the sight was a
beautiful one. The displays In front of the
places of busluess of Postmaster Mellet
and Councilman McElhenny were espec
ially fine and attracted crowds of people to
the scenes of operation. The small boy
had heaps of fun running for the sticks of
the rockets and many people took Involun
tary sprints to escape the rockets that
slipped and shot along the groutid Instead
of into space. No accidents were reported
The ton-n hail a holiday appearanco
during the entire night and it was long
after midnight when the report of the last
cannon cracker died away. During the
early hours of the evening the streets were
enlivened by music from the 4th Itegluient
Drum Corps of Pottsvllle and the drum
corps of tho Salvation Army. The
former spout the day here and the young
men seemed to enjoy themselves immensely.
They furnish excellent music and have
been invited to repeat the visit at an early
lay. As the Salvation Army passed down
Main street with its druui corps playing a
sacred selection the I'ottsville young men
fell in at the rear and inarched in that
position for about half a square. Many
people wero misled to the conclusion that
the army had uniformed its members in
season of uncommon prosperity, but when
the visitors turned oft at Centre street the
humor of the Incident made itself an
parent and there were broad smiles on all
sides. The army was cut down one half in
a rwiuKie. xue moment was more en
joyable from the fact that the I'ottsville
young men were not in the least boisterous
and they fe'.l in and out of the line
with a neatuess that would have been
creditable to a veteran military organlza
tiou.
The brewery agents also made the towl
lively for soma time with their annual
parade. Eight wagons were in line filled
with young men attired In ridiculous
fashion. The displays by the Lauer and
Iiarbey agents were very catchy. The
parade was headed by a horseback rider
attired in an ulster tied about his body
with bunting and a drum corps furnished
tho music. The occupants of some of the
wagons were too boisterous and fresh to
make the parade an appreciative one to tho
public.
The Columbia Hose Company took ad
vantage of the clearing weather.to coutluuo
its picnic at Columbia park, and the Grant
Band gave a short btreet parado to au-
uouuee tho event. Tho attendance at tho
park was very good during the evening
and the company retrieved some of tho loss
it sustained the day before. There was a
pyrotechnic display at the park. Severnu
baloons were sent up. One of thorn caligh
fire after it got some distance abovo the
grounds. The picnio was continued today
and will be held this evening. This after
noon the company's postponed fanta&tio
parado took place and was a success. There
were a number of very funny features iu it.
Last night Chief of Police Tosh aud
Lieutenant Lee arrested two strangling
fakirs of the Astley circus for working
shell aud ball gauio at Columbia Park.
The fakirs were fined $7.25 each by Justice
Toomey aud stopped their proving on tho
innocents. These fakirs have giveu up tho
circus to remain in town, as they say the
suokers are plentiful. They should be
avoided aud prosecuted each time they
attempt to throw out their drag 'nets. A
few fines will compell them change their
base of operations.

of His Cot
Martin P.attlgau has gone before a higher
tribunal thau the courts of this county to
answer for tho crimo he committed last
Wednesday morning. The knife wounds
he Indicted upon himself after running
away from the house in which he had just
stabbed his wife and her sister resulted
fatally this mornlug.
Wheu a Hkisald reporter called at tho
county Jail at seven o'clock this morning
tho lifeless body of the suicide aud would'
bo murderer lay upon a cot in cell No. 19
ou the first tier ou the south side of the
jail corridor. The man had died half an
hour before.
Wheu ltattigan was received at the jail
Wednesday afternoon he was plaied upon
the cot in the cell that formed his tomb
this morning. Two prisoners wero assigned
to act as his attendants during the day and
two others served at night. Dr. J. Harry
Swaviug, the prison physician, looked after
the medical attendance. Yesterday Dr. J.
H. Cooper was In consultatlou aud the re
sult led Warden Brower to decide to re
main at the bedside of the victim. He did
so and was with lUttigan until ho died.
Death was cauced by perltonltus. His
abdomen was very much enlarged aud
caused intense sutl'ering at times. About 1
o'clock this morning the condition of tlio
man became so precarious that Warden
Brower sent for Kev. Francis J. McGovern
to administer the last rites of the church
The clergyman responded promptly aud
the dying prisoner was evidently gratitied
to see him. After tho departuro of the
clergyman ltattigan sank rapidly aud at
G:30 o'clock his life passed away. His
dying moments were peaceful. Shortly
before he died ho made an effort to leave
his bed, but was prevented from doing &o
by Warden Brower. He said he wanted
to wash himself and walk arouud a little.
The character of his wounds made it im
perative that he should remain lying
ou his back. He was conscious to the last
moment, but made uo reference at any time
during tho night to his bloody work of
Wednesday, or to the causes, motives or
results.
Immediately after the prisoner's death
Warden Brower deputized Commissioners'
Clerk Carl Coogau to send tho official noti
fication to the deceased's relatives and
friends In this town aud to notify the Cor
oner. The prisou authorities then prepared
the remains for delivery to the relatives
when claimed by them, which was done
this afternoon.
Itattigau's victims are making slow
progress towards recovery. Both have re
covered from the shock, but Drs. Hamilton
and Stein say tho chances for recovery are'
still uncertain. If perltonltus can be pre
vented from setting in tho victims will re
cover. Why suffer from Indigestion ? Burdock

It Is a gratifying task to commend a good
thing. Lack of space yesterday prevented
us from paying the compliments deserved
by pur old friend, Major Gordon W. Lillie,
(Pawnee Bill), and his wild west show aud
hippodrome. Many of our people wit
nessed Pawnee Bill's show at Lakeside a
fow years ago, and that they were well
pleased with it was proved by tho largo
attendance at tho shows ou Thursday.
They wero agreeably surprised to find that
tho shows have been greatly enlarged and
improved since tho previous appearances
iu this region and are conducted on a more
elaborate scale generally. We do not hesi
tate to say it is the best 25-cont show uuder
canvass in the country, and none in the
largo audience of Thursday left the grounds
dlssatisfiod. Pawnee Bill is also to be com
mended for keeping all fakirs off his trail.
He gives a good, wholesome eutertatumont
aud affords his audleuces all the comfort
and protectiou they oan expect.

Dennis Slattery, whose term of two
years and a half in the county jail will
expire in about two months, says he had
nothing whatever to do with the reported
plan to break jail on the Fourth of July.
He says It would be foolish for him to
take a hand in suoh a movement and run
the risk of additional Imprisonment when
only a few weeks stanei between him aud
unconditional liberty. Slattery" is looking
well and claims to be resigned fo a better
future. He will not return to Shenaudoah,
