Sir Lion Playfair, in a letter to Junius Henri Browne, author of a paper with the above title says: "Hav ing represented a large constituency (the University of Kdinburg) for seven teen years as a member of rurliment, X naturally came in contact with the most eminent medical meu in England. 1 have put the question to most of them, 'Did you, in your extensive practice, ever know a patient who was afraid to die?' With two exceptions they answered 'No.' "One of these exceptions was Sir Benjamin Brodic, who said he had seen one ease. The other was Sir Robert Christian, who had seen one case, that of a girl of bad character who had a sudden accident. I have known three friends who were partially devoured by wild beasts under apparently hopeless circumstances of escape. The first was Livingstone, the great African traveler, who was knocked on his back by a lion, which began to munch his arm. He assured me that he felt no pain and that his only feeling was one of intense curiosity as to which part of the body the lion would take next. The next was Rustem Pasha, now Turkish Am bassador in London. A bear attacked him and tore off part of his arm and shoulder. He also assured me that he had neither pain nor fear, but that he felt excessively angry because the bear grunted with so much satisfaction in munching him. "The third case is that of Sir Edward Bradford, an Indian officer now oc cupying a high position in the Indian , Olliee. He was seized in a solitary place by a tiger, which held hint firmly behind the shoulder with one puw and then deliberately devoured the whole of his arm, beginning at the end and ending at the shoulder. He was posi tive that he had no sensation of fear, and thinks that he felt a little pain when the fangs went through his hand, but is oertain that he felt none during | the munching of his arm."- .< ' • FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, MARCH 20, 1890. Death of W. A. Grime**. Friday morning the citizens of Free land were startled at hearing of the 1 death of W. A. Grimes. The news of ' his death coming so sudden caused many to ask "how long had he been sick." A few weeks ago he caught cold, and with his usual push and attentiveness to busi ness paid little or no attention to it, until i it became too apparent that he should take to his bed. Then it was found that the disease was of a more serious nature than his friends anticipated, and at 10 o'clock on Thursday night the end came. I He was a young man, being hut 29 years , of age, married and the father of two children. Being reared right here, and holding the office of Justice of the Peace for a! second term, lie was thoroughly identi-! fied with everything that pertained to! the betterment of this section of the j country; and as such he possessed the confidence of the whole people. His ! funeral took place on Sunday last from | his late residence ami was in charge of j Union Council No. 300, of the Legion of ! Honor, of which he was a member. 1 The people of Freeland and surround- j ing villages turned out in large numbers to pay their last tribute of respect to ( him. Among those from other towns . we noticed the following: Anthony Coll, ! of Laurytown; P. Latham, E. P. Wil liams, Geo. W. Miller, Benj. Clewell, J. 1 G. Eddy, E. P. Rouse, Samuel Ilarle- j man and Dan Rouse, of Weatherly; ; Thomas Clemens and J. T. Mulhearn, of i Lansford; Hon. W. M. Rapsher and . Hon. Michael Cassidy, of Mauch Chunk; i Conrad Haas and George Lubrecht, of Hazleton. John D. Hayes has applied for letters j of administration on his estate. Want to be Mine Inspector. Yesterday afternoon the examination ' of candidates for the position of mine inspector of the Third Inspection dis- j trict opened in the arbitration room in the court house. The board of examin ers consists of John F. Snydersof Scran ton, and 11. S. Reets, of this city, engin eers; James Howe, of Plymouth, Tnos. G. Thomas, of Pittston, and John J. Dougherty, of I ittston, miners. A. L. I Williams," attorney of this city, is the secretary. Ten candidates presented themselves | for examination as follows : Anthony J. 1 Gallagher, Wilkes-Barre; G. M. Wil liams, Wilkes-Bar re; Hugh McDonald, j Pittston; Isaac Jones, Ashland; A. F. I Ford, Pittston; W. E. Howell, Ply- ' mouth; W. I). Owens, Plains; V\ illiam j E. Davis, Drifton; John M. Lewis, Pitts ton, and Edward Williams, of Nanticoke. The questions propounded yesterday were of the preliminary order, relating i to the experience and to the qualities-1 tion of the candidates. A few questions were also given on the practical work of the mines. The examination will be continued to-day and will probably con- j sume the whole of to-morrow.—Yester day's Newsdealer.

William B.Davis has been idle two weeks with an injury of the thumb, re ceived in the mines. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Porter were at Shenandoah last Saturday, attending the funeral of a relative. Dr. 11. M. Neale has been confined to his home during the past week, owing to a had cold, caused by overwork. Mrs. Robert L. Jones, of South 11 eh- j erton, who was visiting in New York, ar- j rived home on Tuesday evening. Owing to a too free use of the bottle I on Monday two men were suspended in- j definitely. Better quit boys, it don't i pay ro carry a bottle. I). S. Thomas, of Shenandoah, will preach in the Welsh Baptist Church next Sunday. Morning at 10.30; evening at 6. Communion services in the morning. Early Tuesday morning the hitcheron top of No. G slope noticed the wash house on fire, and by a free use of water it was extinguished, but not until con siderable damage was done to a lot of clothing belonging to Geo. Bobbins. Quite a number of young hoys are in the habit of congregating about the Presbyterian Church on Sunday evenings and insulting the passers by. If this | practice is not soon stoppod, thev may find themselves in the toils of a lawsuit | before long. i Owing to a number of drivers being i absent on Monday, celebrating St. ! Patrick's Day, strange drivers were put I in their places, an accident occurred at No. 0, by which two mules were injured by being humped between cars, on top of the run, causing a temporary suspen sion of work; one team having to do the work for the balance of the day. Same day the improvised driver and pateher were suspended for the balance of this week. Last Saturday being pay-day here, quite an excitement was caused by a number of boys and young men snow balling near the office, and then the young hoodlums turned their attention towards the "Huns" and all others who chanced to he around. The result being that the clerks had to quit paying until Coal and Iron Policeman Baught arrived from Eeklev, when paying was again resumed. On Monday morning a num ber of them were discharged. We hope that the example set by tne Company in dealing so swiftly by these boys will be ■ a lesson for others. Up. I Old newspapers for sale. St. Patrick'** Day Parade. | As stated in the previous issues of the ! TTIUUNE, the annual parade of the Irish ; 1 Societies and Green Men of this section j !of the country took place. The day opened with every indication of a March storm, but tnrned out to be very fine be- \ ; fore noon. I Mass was celebrated at St. Ann's ! Church, by Rev. M. J. Fallihee, promptly at ten o'clock. After mass the Rev. Gen -1 tleman pave a very eloquent discourse on ■ the life and labors of St. Patrick; from , I his landing in Ireland to his death, also j how the faith planted by him spread through England, Scotland, Wales and i even penetrated Europe, finally taking root in this country. The Rev. Gentle | man advised his hearers to follow the example of their Patron Saint, to he ! ever vigilant in prayer and good deeds, 1 j and predicted that if they persevered in I such practices that heaven would be their reward. I At the close of the mass the parade I ! was formed and took up the march as ! follows: St. Ann's Drum Corps. St. Ann's T. A. B. Pioneer Corps. St. Ann's T. A. B. Cadets. St. Ann's T. A. B. Society. Kosciuszko Guards. Young Men's Drum Corps. Young Men's T. A. B. Society, Freeland. Jeddo Drum Corps. Jeddo Green Men. Eckley Drum Corps. I St. Mary's T. A. B. Cadets, Eckley. | St. Mary's T. A. B. Society, Eckley. ! Green Men, of Eckley. St. Patrick's Cornet Band. 1 St. Patrick's Beneficial Society, of Drif-! ton. The route as laid out by the committee ! was followed, and the parade broke up ' on Luzerne street, when all retired to | their homes satisfied that this was one of the largest parades of its kind ever held in Freeland. NOTES. Depierro's Orchestra gave a ball in the i opera house, which was well attended. The outgoing trains in the afternoon 1 took a number of our people to Hazleton. ! Wm. A. Mulhearn acts the part of Marshal for St. Patrick's Society like an I old veteran. | A lack of music was noticed at many j a point along the route. This should be I i avoided in future. | From the starting of the parade to its i finish everything was in unison with the 1 programme laid down. There were a few horsemen in the procession, which gave the small boy full scone to follow the band, i Marshal O'Donnell of the St. Ann's Pioneer Corps can ride and steer a horße as well as handle the throttle of the "Iron" horse. | Daniel Boyle, of Jeddo, acted as . Marshal for the Green Men, and Barney i Carr looked after the interest of the , i Eekley men in a like capacity. The St. Patrick's Cornet Band favored the spectators with music suitable to the occasion. Their latest quickstep, "Caed Mille Faltha," with its fine trio, was rendered in good style. They done well and received many fine comments from strangers. Many would prefer to see Rev. M. J. Fallihee 011 horseback, as in the good old days of yore, instead of in the carriago. They must not forget that time passes, and that as he grows older he becomes less active. But what is lacking in physi cal activity is made up in patriotism." A Dishonest Salesman. Constable Gift on Saturday afternoon served a warrant on A. C. Ileiney, re-' siding at No. 224 North Seventh street, charging him with embezzlement, on oath of Kleppinger & Kneer, the whole sale grocers, by whom he was employed. Ileiney was taken before Alderman Worinan. lie was unable to furnish bail and was committed to prison for trial. Ileiney is over fifty years of age and ' was employed by Kleppinger & Kneer since they have been in business, a period of three or four years. lie travel led all through the Lehigh Valley and in Monroe and Carbon counties. Last September the firm got wind of the fact tliat Ileiney had failed to turn in be tween ®3OO and S4OO which he had col lected from their customers. At Ileinoy's earnest request they did not prosecute him, but retained him in their employ. Ileiney promised faithfully to replace the money. He failed to do so, but in stead continued his pilferings, so that the firm loses about SSOO. The firm then determined to prosecute and Ileiney is now behind the bars. Ileiney lost the money in gambling.—Allentown City j Item. Mr. Ileiney was well known in this i part of the country, having, for a num ber of years, conducted the large board ing house (known as the Drifton Hotel) for Coxe Bros., at Drifton, and later the Central Hotel in this borough. Much sympathy is expressed for him, as he was always considered a trustworthy gentleman.

The anthracite coal trade continues in a state of almost unparalleled depres sion, but the various mining and carry ing interests are working in close har mony to prevent any special demoraliza tion. The output of coal is bping restricted as closely as possible to the actual necessities of consumers, and the seven or eight companies which control the trade are said to be adhering strictly to the respective percentages allotted them. The general sales agents of the anthracite companies met at New York on last Thursday, and after discussing the situation of the coal trade and the outlook for future business adjourned to meet again on the 27th instant. No changes were made in the circular prices for anthracite for this month. It was, however, generally understood between them that they should recommend to their respective managers the necessity of not mining more coal than the mar ket actually requires; that the output for March be not over two million tons, and that for April be limited to an equal quantity unless the demand should be ' greater. Pea coal is again in better de i mand than supply on account of the I small quantity being made. The En j gineering anil Mining Journal says : "As ; a result of the Philadelphia and Reading j Railroad's new order, refusing to accept I four-wheel coal cars, which went into ! effect on the 10th instant, neither the Lehigh Valley nor the Central Railroad |of New Jersey delivered any coal to j either the North Pennsylvania or Kast J Pennsylvania branches of the Reading ! Railroad. All the coal which the Lehigh I Valley Railroad had in its yards at j I'ackerton consignod to Philadelphia parties was hurried to the Reading I tracks before midnight on the 9th. The I Lehigh Valley Company is sending all : its gondola or eight-wheel coal cars to | the mines now." i The total amount of anthracite coal sent to market for the week ending March 8, as reported by the several carrying companies, was 441,530 tons, compared with 483,385 tons in the corres ponding week lust year, a decrease of 41,855 tons. The total amount of an thracite mined thus far in the year 1890 was 4,676,470 tons compared with 5,252,- 410 tons for the same period last year, a decrease of 575,934 tons.— Ledger.
