Hurko, Esq., William II. Oloun and Charles Strouso has taken leases frotu the Shaciler estate for the three squares of laud In the south eastern section of the town bounded by Maybetry alloy, Gilbert street, Mulberry alley and tbo Lehigh Valley railroad. And also for about twenty lots situated 011 Cherry street, west of Catherine street, making In all from CO to 80 lots, each 30 by 140 feet. This will mean a big relief to some of the crowded sections of the borough and an increase to the population of tho Fourth ward of at least 100 families. Tho syndicate was nego tiating foi the leases for about two years and several other parties made attempts to se cure control of tho land, but failed. Tho syndicate has now undor completion a double block on lot No. 2 of the tract, situated on Poplar street, near Gilbert street, and have foundations completed for two double blocks, one on each side of the one about to be com pleted. If has also disposed of a largo number of lots on tho tracts, selling them for a price in addition to tho ground rout. That is, the purchasers pay the syndicato so much for tho lots and assume the responsibility for payment of the ground rent to the Sbaefl'er estate. Joseph Baytkiowlcz, tho bottler, Is one of the purchasers and has already com pleted a foundation on Poplar street for a double three-story building. Among tho others who havo purchased lots from the syndicato are John C Ileaton, John Bialcckl, Peter Kehoo, Frank Alport, Jacob JIahutsky and Frank Keppi. Among the conditions upon which the sales of the lots are made are that nothing but dwellings shall be erected upon them, and they shall be substantial, although plain. Tho syndicate apparently has a Klondike in tho investment. Surprise and lleceptlon, A most 'enjoyable surprise and reception was tendered Miss Clara Clineat her home on South Main street last evening, by the mem bers of her Sunday school class of tho M.

There Is a trito old Baying that mlsfortuno comes not single-handed, and It is exemplified in tho case of the family of John Hanson, of Mahanoy Plane. They left their home on Thursday to attend the wedding of Miss Hattio May Gregory, sister of Mrs. Hanson, which took place at tho home of tho bride's parents, Mr, and Mrs. E. D. Gregory. Dur ing the night Mr. and Mrs. Hanson's oldest sou, John, was taken sick and died at an early hour yesterday morning.

Swalm and Family .Aroused Trom 1 heir Slumbers at Two 6'olock This Horning by a Fire That Made ' Rapid Headway Under Their Bedroom Floor. Shortly before two o'oloA this morning cries of "Police I" attracted: Chief of Police Tosh And Watchman Martin O'llara to the hardware store and dwelmnr of A. II. Swalm, on North Main street. Watchman Creary and Policeman Ed, Koster arrived soon after. They found Mr. Bwalm's wife at the entrance to the houso and she told them that thero was flre in the tmv of the store. Koster aud Creary stood guard at tho en. trance, while Tosh, O'Hara and Mrs. Swalm joined , tho lattot's husband 111 the store and attempted to put out what, to them, appeared louoasilgut lire. Air. Swalm ad usted-a small hose to a hydrant In the store aud Mrs. Swalm carried buckots of water. With 'this assistance tlio two officers fought tho fire. which was. in the ceiling. It soon became evident that there was more Qro than could be reached, from bolow and tho quartette hurriod to tho bedrooms ovor tho rear part of tho store. Tosh aud O'llara worked like Trojans and received cxcelloutasslstanco from both Mr. and Mrs. Swalm, who wore per fectly self-possessed and did all that could be suggested to assist tho ofScors In putting out the firo without having tho placo Hooded by water, but it soon becamo evident that the services of the firo department wore indis pensablo and Policeman Kester was sent to sound an alarm. Mr. and Mrs. Swalm praise the police and watchmen highly for their services. At ono time both Tosh and O'Hara staggorod as if they wore about to succumb, Dut tucy readied tresu air and quickly re covered. Both men wef8" drenched with wator and showed tho effects of hard work. Policeman Koster sent a double alarm from box 25, at the cornor of Main and Centre streot. Whou tho tiro companies ar rived tho flames had snread between the joists of tho second floor to tho southwestern corner of tho building and a stack of flre ex tending up tho weather boards from tho sec ond floor to the roof brightly Illuminated tho neighborhood. It was 2:05 when the alarm was sounded aud tho firemen had before them what threatened to bo an extensive and disastrous firo, but thoir work was so prompt, effectlvo nnd judicious that within fifteen minutes the firo was out and, without any material damage to tho Interior of tho building by wator. Mr. Swalm says-"tbat had tho lutcrlor been 1100(1611 his dam igo would havo been at least$3,000 nioro than it is. Bstlmatcs were made this morning and the loss Is fixed at about .$100,- Mr. Swalm was tho first to discover the fire. Ho and his wlfo occupy one of tho bed rooms ovor the rear of the storo. Their two Children occupy tho adjoining bedroom. Mr. Swalm was awakened by a choking sensation aud found the bedroom filled with dense smoke. Ho says that when his feet touched the floor '.t felt hot. He rushed down to tho store and saw a bluo flame at tho electric light wire on tho coiling. His wifo ran to tho front duor to call tho polico. When tho polico arrived his two children wcro taken out of their bedroom to a front room, where thoy remained until tho fi-e assumed a more serious form, when they were carried to tho house of a neighbor. Tho police say Mrs. Swalm is a remarkably self-possessed woman. After the alarm was sent In aud her services wero no longer required in tbo attempts to put out tho flre, sho procoeded to pack trunks with such articles as sho would wish to save should their removal from tho houso bo re quired. This she did deliberately as tho flremen hurried to and fro about her, tho only evidence of alarm on her part being an occasional admonition to the flremen to give her due notico if tho flre should get beyond their control aud a removal of effects become necessary, "That woman is worth four of the general run of men in a case of this kind," remarked ono of tho firemen, An exhaustive investigation as to tho cause of tho fira was mads this jnoruiug and the conclusion reaehed that in extending a gas pipe along tho telling to tho rear part of tho store a few months ago tho electric light wires on the ceiling wore interfered with In such a manner as to creato a short circuit. This had an effect on tho gas pipe in such a way that A small hole was gradually eaten into it. It Is presumed that last night the safety fuse at this point gave way to tho presuro nnder tho short circuit. The burst ing of the safety fuse occasioned, as it always does, a small spark, or flame, and this ignited the gas which was escaping from the small hole made in the pipe by tbo short circuit.

Mlko tciiublnsky appeared before Justice Toomey laBt evening as complainant- charg ing Joseph Kowel, a West Centre 'treet saloonkeeper, Anthony Kluocak, John Sear bolls (now supposed to be in Buffalo, N. Vb) and Michael KotolHiej as follows : "That on or about tho 10th of May, 1807, at the bor ough of Shenandoah, they did fraudulently mako, sign, utter and publish, or were con cerned In the fraudulent making, signing, uttering and publishing of a written Instru ment purporting to be a deed conveying cer tain lands situated (u Austria and the prop erty of this deponent. To said instrument tho namo of this deponent as grantor whs forged, as aforesaid, by tho said parties, to tlio prejudice of this deponent s rights and with intent to defraud this deponent." Stripped of its legal verbiage, the com plaint of tho prosecutor is that he accepted some money from one of tho defendant, Mlehaol Kotolsiej, to bind a bargain to sell to the latter tho land In Austria, but subse quently repented of tho bargain and offered to return the mouoy. He alleges that the dofendant went before Justice Shoemaker and executed a deed to the property by forging his name to it.

BAKIM) POWMR CO., MW VOMC POWDER ftp TRADE Cheering Reports From the Leidlng Commercial Exchanges. BUSINESS BOOMS -EVERYWHERE I The Greatest Gain .Has Been For Agricul ture, There Being an Increased De mand For All Farm Products. All Other Industrie lloklng Up. New York, Aujr. 21. II. G. Dun & Co.'g weekly review of trade aaya: Not for several yeara hare the telegraphic reports from varlou cities In all parte of the country been a encouraging, or shown as uniform Improvement, aa thla week. The markets are called crasy by some, but fairly represent the peo ple, whose confidence in the future Is strong and Increasing. Nothing- ap pears to check It. Humors of Injury to crops are not sufficiently supported to have much influence. The oUe tempo rary hindrance is the strike of the bi tuminous coal miners, which Interferes as yet little with Industries, and seems likely to terminate within a week. The demand for money Improves, taking from New York to the Interior about half a million more than was received during the week, and offerings of com mercial loans are much larger, Includ ing considerable Iron and steel paper, nnd tho course of foreign exchange Is generally interpreted as an Indication that specie imports cannot be long delayed. The greatest gain has been for agri culture. Corn has advanced little in price, but Is moving very largely, so that the last year's Burplus may soon be marketed, unless the new crop turns out better than many now orpect. Cot ton declined an eighth, because of an estimate promising the largest crop ever grown, but the market is gradu ally Improving, and some of the large mills, after a few weeks of suspension, have resumed work. Other farm pro ducts are doing well also, but wheat has advanced about 11 cents for the week on actual transactions) ' "With heavy purchases for export. The of-' flclal estimate of yield Is entirely dis regarded, except as an admission that tho crop will be larger than that of last year, and It Is commonly assumed that the yield will be 550,000 bushels or more, though recent reports of Injury, Indicating the possibility of a some what smaller outcome, have helped the advance In price. It Is well to notico that corn exports continue more than double last year's, also. The Iron and steel Industry Is pushing forward In spite of tho still unsettled strike of bituminous coal miners, and th6 enormous purchases of ore at Cleveland, and also of billets at Pitts burg, show the utmost confidence In the future. Many additional establish ments have begun -work during the past week, and while no material change In prices has occurred the re ports Indicate fewer concessions to se cure business and a much steadier tone. The demand for finished products has decidedly Improved, especially In plates, sheets and bars, and In railway sup plies, particularly In car axles. Tho old difficulty remains In the boot and shoe Industry, dealers being un willing to buy largely at the prices which manufacturers now ask, though during tho past week the only change has been a slight advance on calf boots. The market for hides In Chicago Is again much stronger, prlees having ad vanced, with very narronv transactions, and buyers are holding off In the belief that prices have reached the top. In the woolen business a constant Increase appears In the number of establish ments at work, and the demand for goods has mucli Increased. Failures for the week have been 2S3 in the United States, against 2SQ for the corresponding week last year, and in Canada 30, against 27 last year. Bradstreets' review says: Special tel egrams from trade centers throughout the country emphasize the growing prosperity of the farmer, due to higher prices for almost all agricultural pro duce still In his hands, and point to a continuation of the deinnnd which has been conspicuous within the past few weeks. The volume of trade continues to Increase, and prices are hardening. No such volume of business, largely In anticipation of requirements, haB been reported since 1892. Larger transac tions have been In dry goods, clothing and shoes, and south and west In wages and farm Implements. Another very favorable bank clear ings report is found In the total, $1, 140,000,000, this week, which, while it Is 1 ser cent less than last week, la 10 per cent larger than In the third week of August, 1880; par cent heavier than In 1885, 4Q per eent larger than In 1SH, and fully 58 per cent larger than In th Ilka week ef 1893, WhPU Clearing! totals were reduced to very low figures. Compared with the like period In 1892, a year of larga vol ume of business, this week's total shows a gain of IS per eent. Klondike, Alaska.
