mains were taken to Rockport and in
terred on Sunday. Quite a number of
friends and relatives from this place at
tended the funeral.

AlinoHt a Fire.
Tuesday evening, a little after six
o'clock, the fire alarm was sounded, and
almost instantly the two hose trucks were
on the streets and heading up Front
street, when the happy announcement
was made that their services were not
needed, as the fire was already under
control. The cause of the alarm was
that the chimney in the rear of the
house occupied by John Iludock, on
Centre street, and owned by the heirs of
the late Mrs. McGroary, was defective
and smoke was seen issuing out between
the bricks. A vigorous effort was made
to keep the fire undor control, by throw
ing water on it, which was successful.
The damage done was very slight—
chiefly confined to the roof. Owing to
the high wind and heavy lightening pre
vailing at the time fears were entertained
that a general conflagration would ensue.
However, the storm passed off without
doing any damage in this section.

Celebrate Memorial Day.
What steps are our people going to take
to celebrate Decoration Day? For years
past this day has been properly celebrated
by the people of Freeland and surround
ing towns, and there can be no reason
why it should not be so this time. At
the last meeting of St. Ann's T. A. B.
Society, of Drifton, the invitation from
Maj. C. B. Coxe Post 147, G. A. R., was
accepted, and we may expect to see that
organization taking part us in years gone !
by. Let us cclebrato the day in a be
coming manner.
ECKLEY.
Mr. James Shearon took a business;
trip to Hazleton last week.
Mr. and Mrs. Patrick Mulliearn were
visiting at Freeland on Sunday.
A number of our young men were
seen inspecting the pic-nic ground on
Sunday.
Quite a number of Freelaud's young
ladies and gentlemen paid a visit to this
place on Sunday.
Foot ball seems to take the place of
base ball here this season. Some think
it more amusing than base ball, but give
us the national game.
John K. Shearon is getting very popu- i
lar. He has composed three new songs
this month, and intends to get them ;
printed in ballot form.
A Hungarian wedding took place here [
last week, at which a number of our
young men and boys were regaled witli !
cakes and pickles. The Eckley Cornet
Band serenaded the happy couple.
There is an anti-tobacco club organized i
here, whoso members have given up the
use of the weed and will substitute in its
place chewing gum. We predict a col
lapse of some of the large tobacco firms.
SHAN.
A It nil road Hero.
Saturday last the little child of Walter
G. Custer, of Dorranceton, wandered
from home, and with toys and a wheel
barrow got beyond Bennetstution and on
the Lehigh \ alley railroad trucks. In
nocently the little boy stood there and
did not move from the track when the
0.10 passenger train dashed around the
curve at full speed. The engineer saw
the child, but he knew that he could not
ston the train, so reversed his engine
and rushed out to the cow-catcher just in
time to reach out and catch hold of the !
boy and raise him safe from the track, j
while the little wheelbarrow and toys j
almost at the same instant were smashed I
into a hundred pieces.
This is one of the bravestacts recorded
in the history of railroading in the Wy
oming Yalley, and that engineer, who
ever he may be, deserves some special
recognition for the thoughtful and brave
action.—Kingston Timet,

FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, MAY 15. 1890.
The Glinler. Defeated.
I The Tigers and Giinlers played an ex
| citing game of base ball in the park on
| Sunday afternoon which resulted in a
victory for the Tigers by a score of 5 to 3.
| , e batting on both sides was weak and
the fielding loose, but the closeness of the
score and the rivalry which exists be
j tween the clubs kept the game interest
ing throughout. The pitching of Brislin,
McGarvey and Boner's fly catches and
the short stop play of Trimble were the
j principal features.
I Following is the score by innings :

WMkly Goal llepnrl.
I The anthracite coal trade is unchanged
in any material feature since our last
; report, excepting that the prices for
; the domestic sizes appear to be firmer.
A well known firm of individual opera
tors, w hose agent in a tit of pique, be
j c.utse the carrying companies declined to
reduce the rate of tolls, recently made
! an open cut in prices, has since repented,
and, we are informed, has again marked
up their circular prices 25 to 35 cents per
ton foregg, chestnut and stove sizes. The
demand for all sizes is fair for this season
of the year, and the inquiry for coal for
both present and future delivery is good.
Some of the mining and carrying com
panies are now engaged in restocking
their storage wharves and distributing
pockets in both the East and the West,
and some few shrewd dealers are antici
pating higher prices by purchasing stock
now for the future needs of the enstom
ers. Locally the anthracite trade is dull,
I excepting for the manufacturing sizes,
j though pea and buckwheat sizes are re
ported easier on account of n slight in
| crease in the production of those sizes.
The general sales agents of the large
I anthracite producing interests w ill meet
to-day at New York to again consider
i the question of an advance in prices, and
it would not be surprising if the June
j prices are marked up ll to 25 oents per
j ton, though ono or two interests, we are
informed, think it Inadvisable to do so at
present.
The Pottsville Miner*' Journal of last
Friday savs: "The present month
opened with a much brighter feeling in
the hard coal trade than has been the
case in a long period of timo. The man
i ner in which the agreement to restrict
production and maintain prices has been
adhered to is now bearing Its legitimate
| fruit. There is such a general feeling
that a continuance of this conservative
policy will make the business of the year
a profitable one that is not likely to be
departed from. The shipments of last
week show' a large increase over the cor
responding week of last yefir. This was
in part due to the desire to anticipate
the advance in prices which wont into
effect on the first instant. Thatadvanee
has thus far been well maintained. As
there is a good demand for coal and the
surplus is being steadily decreased the
prospects for a further advance are good
and the anticipation of this is likely to
result in a rush of orders from dealers
who have left their stocks run low."
The total amount of anthracite coal
sent to market for the week ending
May 3d, as reported by the several
carrying companies, was 690,396' tons,
compared with 513,886 tons in the corres
ponding week last year, an increase of
80,510 tons. The total amount of an
thracite mined thus far in the year 1890
was 9,140,052 tons compared with 9,499,-
269 tons for the same period last year, a
decrease of 358,017 tons,— Ledi/er,'
