Reception of the Children of Mary.
Sunday evening at St. Ann's Church,
Drifton, the ceremony of the reception
of the Children of Mary took place.
For some months past this society of
children has heen carried 011 under the
supervision of Sister Josephene and as
sistants, and their formal reception and
admission into the society took place.
The announcement at the two masses
by Rev. Father Farrcl that the ceremony
would take place at 7.30 p. m. brought
many people to the church, outside of
its regular attendants, to witness the
solemn and grand ceremony.
Precisely at 7.30 the strains of the
organ struck up a sacred march, and the
children came filing in and took their
seats in the body of the church, in the
space provided for them, and later Rev.
Father Farrel, accompanied by the altar
boys, knelt in front of the altar and
after a short prayer blessed the badges
and medals about to be bestowed on the
young children. At its close the boys
to the number of 53 took their place in
frontof the railing, while Master Andrew
Higgins, in their behalf, answered the
responses required of them. At the
close of the responses the Rev. Father
proceeded to invest each member with
the badge and at the same time reciting
prayers suitable to the occasion.
At the close of the ceremony for the
boys, the young girls came next to the
railing to the number of 63. Miss Katie
McTague, of Drifton, read the initiatory
questions, which were answered in uni
son by the whole class. At the close of
this part of the ceremony Rev. Father
Farrel again began the investing of each
with a medal and ribbon and continued
until all had been gone through.
The next part of the ceremony was the
blessing the statues of the Blessed Vir
gin and St. Joseph, which were placed in
position, one at each side of tlie altar.
Miss Mary Dougherty presided at the
organ, and Miss Mary Davis made the
crownation speech and placed the crown
on the head of the Blessed Virgin. Mas
ter John McDonald done the same for
the statue of St. Joseph, except that in
stead of the crowning ceremony a lily
was placed in the hand of St. Joseph.
At the close of the reception the Rev.
Father Farrel ascended the altar, ami
spoke upon the objects of the Society of
the Children of Mary and their relations
to the church. His sermon was well
rendered, and was spoken of by many
who were present as being the most in
structive ever delivered in St. Ann's
Church.
The reception of the children into the
Society of the Children of Mary, and
the placing of the two statues in the
church reflects great credit 011 the Sisters
in charge of St. Ann's schools.
The Confttableft Organize.
The latest move in the way of trusts is
that of the constables of the State.
Thoße of Luzerne county inentat VVilkes
llarre on Monday and effected an organ
ization. Their object is to have Legisla
tion favorable to their interest brought
forward at the next session of the Legis
ture and to prevent, if possible, deputy
constables, coal and iron police and special
police doing the work assigned to con
stables.
We know that their duties are such,
that they run great risk of ever getting
paid for three-fourths of what they do;
iience this needed Legislation.
Of Interest to Coal Operators.
The Mercantile Appraiser, of Lacka
wanna county, assessed the Delaware
and Hudson Coal Company us a powder
dealer. The company refused to pay its
tax, claiming that it was not a dealer in
a mercantile sense of the word. Judge
Connelly, of Lackawanna county, decid
ed that the company is a dealer, and it
will take the ease to the Supreme Court.
The plea is that the company merely
"furnishes" powder to employes. The
case will be watched with great interest
by the operators of the whole anthracite
region.
Changed It* Form.
The Ilazleton Plain Speaker came out
on Monday morning in a more compact
form, being what is known as a quarto
sheet. The change is for the better.
The Plain Speaker is getting there
quietly. Itß management is composed of
men who are acquainted with the wants
and needs of the toilers of this region, and
who are not afraid to give them publicity
when the occasion requires it.
Cut off HiH Finger.
Yesterday afternoon a young boy about
seven years of age, son of George Sipple
the Tailor, had one of liiß fingers cut off
by having it caught in an Ice C'ream
freezer, in Baker Iforlacher cellar.
FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, MAY 29. 1890.
Before the liurgettH.
Saturday night or eurly Sunday morn
ing Burgess Cowan's force of special po
lice were making their rounds on Centre
street, and when in the neighborhood of
Centre and Main streets they noticed a
party of men apparently under the in
fluence of drink, and upon requesting
them to move on they became abusive,
whereupon Policeman Edward Gallagher
took one of them into custody and took
him before the hurgess, who inflicted
the usual fine and cost. The gentleman
fined proved to be John Hosier, of Ridge
street. The other man, John Slattery,
of the Points, took leg bail and made
tracks for the township. Next day Po
liceman Gallagher took out a warrant for
his arrest on the charge of trying to
rescue a prisoner.
The prisoner was brought before T. A.
Buckley, J. P., who held him in his own
recognizance to appear at seven o'clock
on Monday evening. Monday evening
the trial took place, and after hearing
several witnesses for the prosecution, as
well as others for the defense, the Jus
tice rendered his decision as not guilty,
and upon its rendition the prisoner left
the room amid the rejoicing of his
friends.
Special CorreHpon<lence.
EDITOR TRIBUNE— Dear Sir l desire
to call attention of the members of Fos
ter township School Board to the condi
tion of the South 1 ieburton school house
(old building). There are a number of
parlies who meet in the building, and
who have permission to do so from the
resident director, and who are taking
proper care of the building; but by what
authority or what right has the primary
department of the suid building to be
turned into a "bumming" shanty is more
than your correspondent can understand.
We do not wish to put a stop to the
practice heretofore of allowing the peo
ple of the different districts to hold Sun
day school, singing school, or nightly
meetings in the school, for, to a great
extent, there is no other place to meet
in, but we are decidedly opposed to al
lowing a lot of young boys to gather there
after night and make havoc with the
furniture, fixtures, etc. By putting a
stop to the above the School Board of
Foster township will satisfy
A TAX-PAVER.
—Strawberry, Vanilla and Chocolate
Ice cream at Jacobs' every day.
"Work for tlie Supervi.or.
The attention of the supervisor of
Foster township is called to the road
leading from the West side of Freeland
borough, past the old Woodside breaker.
For some time past some persons have
been taking ashes from what used to be
the ash dump, adjoining the road, and as
that article became scarce, owing to the
slope being idle, they next turned their
attention to the road which runs over
what was formally the ash bank and be
gan excavating it. This has gone on to
such an extent that travel along that part
of the road after dark has become dang
erous not only to those traveling in
vehicles, but also to pedestrians. This
practice of digging into the road should
be stopped.
Weekly Coal Report.
The anthracite coal trade is quite
dull for the domestic sizes, excepting for
choice brandß of hard Lehigh and Ly
kens Valley coals. For the furnace and
other manufacturing sizes the demand is
excellent, but the supply of pea and
buckwheat coal is better and the prices
for theui consequently easier. There iias
been some complaint about excessive
tonnage made or curried by one or two
companies last month and this, but the
markets have apparently taken the coal.
The general sales agents of the several
large anthracite mining and transporting
companies met at New York 011 Tuesday
to discuss the question of an advance in
prices, but what determination they
reached iB rather uncertain on account
of the present condition of the coal
trade.
A number of collieries in the Schuyl
kill anthracite region which have heen
idle for months resumed operations 011
Monday. Several collieries in the
Luzerne, Shamokin and Wyoming re
gions which were idle for some time past
started mining again last week.
The Engineering aiul Mining Journal of
Saturday, in its weekly review of the
coal trade at New York, says : The an
thracite coal market may he described
as in a very quiet though satisfactorily
firm condition. During the past week
there has been no unsual activity, and
the demand keepß fully up with the sup
ply at full rates. A good deal of coal has
until within a few dayß been moving 011
April contracts. The expected increase
in price at tlie next meeting of the sales
agents has had no appreciable effect on
tlie market other than to increase the
prevailing confidence in the present state
of trade and the belief that tlie summer
will pass over without any reaction from
the present quiet and firm tone. Refer
ring to the apparent difference or pro
portionate discrepancy between the ton
nage shipment up to May 17th and the
tonnage award for the month (2,500,000
tons), it is satisfactorily explained that it
will be adjusted without any appreciable
effect. Overshipping has of late been
rare, and only one concern is said to have
shipped much more than it was entitled
to. These questions of tonnage will be
settled at the meeting of the sales agents
on the 27th instant, as will the output
for June. It is about concluded that the
increase in prices will be 15 cents per ton
on broken, egg and chestnut and 25 cents
on stove. Tlie demand for June will
about reach 2,750,000 tons, and that, it is
expected, will be the limit. The fact
that all the April-May coal has been de
livered will make this quantity neces
sary. With the expected upward ten
dency broken and egg are very firm, but
pea is weak and will be weaker before it
picks up. The f. o. b. quotations of the
large companies are : Broken $3.40, egg
$3.40, stove $3.50, chestnut $3.25. Indi
vidual operators are not going much
lower, except where small concessions
are made for large contracts on suitable
terms; in fact, on some sizes certain of
the independent operators are holding
even above the company's rates."
The total amount of anthracite coal
sent to market for the week ending
May 17th, as reported by the several
carrying companies, was 717,097 tons,
compared with 679,416 tons in the corres
ponding week last year, an increase of
37,681 tons. The total amount of an
thracite mined thus fur in tlie year 1890
was 10,598,597 tons compared with 10,837-,
913 tons for the same period last year, a
decrease of 239,216 tons.— Ledi/er.
