HAZLETON DEFEATS lIRIFTO The Drifton base ball park was opened on Saturday withagame beta ■■en Hazleton and Drifton. The Hazli n Club won the game by a score ol . t. 1 TH E HOME CLUB DEFEATED BY HAZLETON Captain Johnny McGeehan and .is a gression of ball tossers from the \> old he new county seat, accompanied b about fifty of their supporters and ad mirers, came here on Sunday afternoon and vanquished our local combination in a game replete with numerous errors of every description by a score of 10 1 . ■ Zcirdt, the wild-eyed pitcher, was ii the box for the visitors, and although his delivery was pounded hard and often the home club was unfortunate in placii.c their hits safe. Welch pitched a g. 1 game for the homo club, hut he could not do himself justice as Johnny Can could not handle his speedy delivery. Tho score by innings as follows : Freeland 2 0 0 2 0 1 0 0 o—. Hazleton 0 3001 1 32 x—IP THE THIERS BCORE ANOTHER VICTORY. The ball ground at Lattimer presented a novel appearance when the Tigers made their appearance there 011 Sunday after noon. The whole population of men, women, boys and girls, and in fact all tlie people that the Census Enumerator could find when going his rounds last week wore centered there to cheer their pet base hall club on to victory. Such was not to he, as the Tigers went there to win and win they did by but one point. The score up to the eigtli inning was 9 to 3 ill favor of the Tigers, but iu this inning nil of the vast number of Lattimer admirers arose to their feet and by hooting and yelling managed to rattle the Tigers, and as a result five runs were scored before the side was retired. Neither sides scored in the ninth and the game was won by the Tigers, making it their sixth victory of the season. The score by innings as follows : Tigers 3 1021 020 o—9 Lattimer 2010000 5 o—B NOTES. The home team is badly in need of a good, reliable catcher. The Tigers will play the Jeddo Kickers at Jeddo next .Sunday. The Jeddo Kickers defeated a picked nine from Drifton on Sunday. Score: 23 to 4. The Uimlers wore defeated by the Eckley Terrors on Sunday by a score of 19 to 18. The Tigers record of six games won and one lost is one of which any club might justly feel proud. The battery which the home club was to have oil Sunday failed to come, owing to Catcher Jennings havinghis hand hurt on Saturday. Remember the Tigers pic-nic on Sat urday, June 21. Be sure to attend and assist the hoys who are furnishing good free base hull during the warm summer months. Don't miss the game of baseball at the park next Sunday, Tamaqua vs. Free land. The reputation of the former club, is sucli that their presence here should gain for them a good audience. The Batteries will be Welch and Simmons for Freeland, and Christman and Gormley for Tamaqua. Game called promptly at 3 o'clock p. m. Lightning's Freak. During the storm that prevailed here yesterday evening a hall of fire was observed to fall from the sky near the well of the Donop Homestead, corner of Centre and Front Street, which explod ed with a loud noise before it reached the ground. After the explosion smoke was observed issuing through the fence, hut upon examination it was found that no damage was done to the fence or the surroundings. FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, JUNE 12. 1890. Drowm'd t I'pper Lehigh. Mahlon McAvoy, a young bov, aged j sixteen years, wlio was living with bis I t.ran<lf. t' er, James Smith, of Main! street, Upper Lehigh, was drowned while bathing in an old stripping at the [ Western end of the Upper Lehigh tract on Sunday last. Young McAvoy, in company with about a dozen smaller boys, left home about 12 o'clock noon to go swimming, ; and while in the water (being unable to swim) is supposed to have taken cramps and sank. On coming to the surface the second time his companions threw an old raft towards him, but before be could reach it he again sank, and did not rise. An alarm was given, Mart Waldron and Thomas Khoda arrived and went in to the water, and in a short while brought the body to the bank. Word was im mediately sent to T. A. Buckley, J. P., who, in a short while, arrived at the place where the body lay, and em panelled the following jury: James Jamison, foreman, Paul Dash, James Rhoda, Joseph Kvans, Thomas Parry, Thomas Price. The jury viewed the body and then adjourned to the com pany store, where a number of witnesses were examined, and the following verict was rendered: We, the jury, empanelled to ascertain as to how, when and after what manner the said Mahlon McAvoy came to bis death, do say that the said Mahlon Mc- Avoy came to his death near Upper Le high, in Butler twp., County of Luzerne and .State of Penn'a, from drowning, and said death resulted accidental, and the said jurors do further say that there was such story suspicions of violence or other unlawful acts at the hands of some person or persons as to render necessary the holding of an inquest. The death coming as it did, so sudden, has caused a glootu to hang over the quiet and peaceful village; and the rela tives of the dead boy have the sympathy of the whole community. Democratic Delegate Flection. The Democratic Legislative Committee of the 4th district met at the Brislin House, in Hazleton, on Saturday after noon und elected delegates to the State i Convention to be held at Scranton 011 the 2d of July. It was noticed, when the committee vas called to order, that a number of the regular committeemen were absent; and that substitutes were present to act j 111 their stead, among whom was James ! Mcllngh, of town, in the place of Wui. Mulliearn. Nominations for delegates ; ne first in order, and James H. Laugh- 1 1, J. C'. Wiegand and ( lias. F.

Mature all 1 that any opposition to j bin be discountenanced and that he be unanimously nominated for a second term. Objections were raised to this n -olution on the ground that other as piiauts for Legislative honors, whom the the iters of the district might put be- j fore the convention, would not have a j fair .-bailee for the nomination. 111 of- j 1 n the resolution it was the intention ul Mr. Mcllngh to only gain the consent j of the committee but it did not pass, I and was later knocked 011 the head.

The anthracite coal trade is showing | unmistakable signs of improvement. [ There is a considerable quantity of coal j being moved at last month's prices, and j during the past week many new orders j have been received by the shippers of j anthracite for coal at prices closely ap proximating the new circular figures, ■ which went into effect on the Ist instant. I This enables some of the individual ope- i rators, whose collieries have been idle for a month or two past, to resume ope- j rations at a profit, even though it is , small. Our advices from th'.cago and other Western ports aho indicate a much better tone to the anthracite trade there, though there lias not been much activity developed as yet, hut prices are much firmer nnd there has been an im provement ill tho inquiry for coal from that quarter. The coal sales agents of tlie Pennsylvania Railroad have marked up their prices to tlie Washington and Baltimore trade an average of ten cents J per toil. The figures of Mr, John H. j Jones, the Chief of Bureau of Anthra- I cite Statistics, show that the total pro duction of anthracite in May was 3,047,- j 707 tons, compared with 3,084,003 tons in j tlie corresponding month of last year, a j decrease of 30,230 tons, and an excess of j half a million tons over the quantity | which it was agreed by tlie managers of : the several companies controlling tlie | output should be mined last month, j These figures are subject to some official adjustment, hut tlie changes are not I likely to materially affect them. Tlie total amount of anthracite coal j sent to market for the week ending j May 31st, as reported by tlie several carrying companies, was 052,311 tons, compared with 003,545 tons in tlie corres ponding week last year, a decrease of 11,234 tons. The total amount of an thracite mined thus far in the year 1890 wa511,888,421 tons compared with 12,240,. 082 tons for the same period last year, a decrease of 352,201 tons.— l.edqer.
