of the colliery villages has not increased
much since the last census, but South
Heberton and the Points have made
great strides.

Wandered From Home.
The 3-year old son of Patrick Boyle, a
. iction hand on the L. V. R. R., living
at Foundryvillo, near Eckley, wandered
away from home on Sunday morn
ing after his mother had gone to church.
Upon her return the child was missed
and searching parties scoured the woods
until late at night without finding any
trace of the child. The search was re
sinned on Monday morning and partici
pated in by nearly tho whole of the
working force on the gravel train, assist
ed by Win. Seiwell, Coal and Iron Po
liceman, who succeeded in finding the
little wanderer about 3 o'clock that after
noon, standing near a tree about half
a mile from his home on the left hand
lide of the railroad, between Foundry
zille and Jeddo. When found he was
unable to speak and his feet and face were
cratchcd, otherwise he was all right,
'he child was at once returned to his
parents.

As this is a move in the right direction,
we hope Freeland will do her best to
make this demonstration a grand success.
This is not a political move, neither is
it a sectarian one, but it is one that all
classes of citizens can join in and pay
' heir respects to that flag that shelters
and gives liberty to the down trodden of
every elime, once they become subjects
beneath its folds.
Murderer Hoe Found Guilty.
"Guilty of murder in tlie firstdegree"
" us the verdict of the jury in the case of
1 .eorge W. Moss, the wife murderer of
Wilkes-Barre. This case was commenced
on Thursday last and continued until
>,iturday evening, when it was given to
the jury who rendered the above verdict
on Sunday morning. The murder with
which Moss was charged was committed
last October. Some time before the
shooting he had been arrested and sent
to jail for abusing his wife. On being
released from jail tie purchased a revolver
and, in order to get revenge for being
placed in jail, went to his home with the
intent of killing liis wife and then
himself, but was unsuccessful in the lat
ter part. Strenuous efforts were made
by the counsel for the defendent to save
his life on the plea of insanity, but this
was regarded of little weight. The prin
cipal witnesses against the defendent
were his own immediate family, who
were present at tlie time of the shooting.
The prisoner has not yet been sentenced.

FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, JUNE 2G. 1890
Schmidt-Sweitzer.
Rev. Nelson F. Schmidt, of Schwenks
ville, and Miss Eva E. Sweitzer, of this
city, were married on Thursday evening,
June 19, at six o'clock. Rey. J. H.
Schmidt, of Freeland, father of the
groom, and Rev. 8. G. Wagner, D. D.,
the bride's pastor, officiated. The nup
tials were solemnized at the home of the
bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. B. K.
Sweitzer, at Tenth and Maple streets.
Between fifty and sixty friends crowded
the parlor, in which the wedding took
place. The room was lavishly decorated
by the bride's young lady friends. An
umbrella of ferns and daisies was over
the heads of the couple during the mar
riage ceremony. The mantle was banked
with ferns and flowers. The pictures
were festooned and vines trailed along
the doors. There were no bridesmaids
and groomsmen. The ushers were Harry
Sweitzer, brother of the bride; Samuel
Stahr, of Philadelphia; Ralph J. Metz
ger and A. H. Boyer. The bride wore a
dress of cream mohair, accordian-pleated
and trimmed with tulle. She also wore
a gold breastpin of a cluster of daisies,
which was the wedding gift of the groom.
A reception followed the ceremony, when
refreshments were served. Mr.and Mrs.
Schmidt left during the evening for
Philadelphia, New York and up the
Hudson. They will return this week to
Schwenksville, where a house has been
furnished for their occupancy. The
friends present at the ceremony from
other places were Rev. and Mrs. J. H.
Schmidt and daughter Lulu, parents and
sister of the groom, from Freeland, Lu
zerne county; Samuel and Anna Stahr,
of Philadelphia, and Rev. E. T. Kretch
mann, of Trappe. The bride received
very many beautiful gifts, which were
displayed in an up-stairs room last Thurs
day evening. She was one of Allen
town's most amiable young ladies and
graduated from the high school in 'B7.
The groom graduated from Muhlenberg
College, in 'Bo.—Allentown Item.

There were two Hungarian weddings
in town on Saturday evening, and nil tlie
friends of the parties for miles around
were invited. The mußic for dancing
was furnished by a Hungarian orchestra
from Freeland. Beer and "Polinki"
flowed in abundance, and some of our
native young men were not averse to
taking a little of it even if it came out of
a wasnboiler, but, as is alwayß the case,
the beer got the best of them and our
nice young men had to be assisted home
in a helpless condition.
About 300 people assembled on the
ball grounds last Sunday afternoon to
witness the game between Lattimer and
Eckley, but as Lattimer failed to show
up the game was awarded to Eckley by
a score of 9to 0. The audience were in
no mood to be cheated out of a game, so
a game was arranged between the Ist
and 2nd clubs of Eckley, and a very ex
citing game it was. Fernau and Shearon
acted as battery for the Second nine,
while John Shearon and McCeuley acted
for the First nine. The score stood 3to 6
in favor of the Second nine.
Our town was thrown into a state of
excitement last Sunday morning when it
became known that a small boy, 3 year*
old, son of Patrick Boyle, of Foundry
ville, had strayed away from home.
Searching parties were immediately or
ganized and commenced to scour the
woods in all directions. Parties with lan
ternß were out all night. The collieries
were thrown idle on Monday, and all the
employes of Coxe Bros. & Co., together
with the track men of the L. V. K. R.
hunted the woods until near three o'clock
in the afternoon, when John Denion
found the child in the swamp between
Foundryville and Jeddo. The news
rapidly spread that the child was found
and he was at once given to bis over
joyed parents. The child is still ill, but
will recover.

Froelanil WhlpH Mahanoy.
About 800 enthusiastic base ball ad
mirers congregated at the park on Sun
day afternoon to witness the contest be
tween the Freeland and the Mahanoy
City Clubs, which resulted in the for
mer's favor by a score of 14 toB. Welch
was in the points for the home team and
waa batted pretty hard in the first couple
of innings, but was effective in all others,
and he was well supported both in the
out and infield. Baaans pitched for the
visiting club, and be was not bit as bard
as the home team would have liked,
some of them trying with all their power
to lose the sphere. The most notable
features of the afternoon were the terrific
batting of the home team anil the base
running of the visiting club, who ran
them like deers, taking all chances. P.
Boyle and McGarvey did some memor
able work with the stick.
The game started at 2 o'clock and
was one of seven innings, tlie Mahanoy
Club being compelled to stop in order to
be in time for the train, which leaves
here at 3.45 p. m. for that place.
THE TIGERS DEKEAT THE FOURTH W ARD.
The Fourth Ward Club, of Summit
Hill, arrived in town on Saturday after
noon with the intention of coping with
the Soapies, of South Heberton, but, on
account of the inclement weather, the
game did not take place. On Sunday af
ternoon the Tigers and the Fourth Ward
Clubs played a game of seven innings at
the park, in which the former won by a
score of 15 to 4. While the Tigers hit
the ball pretty freely on Sunday a glance
at the score will show that their luck
was with them, and the errors mado by
the Fourth Ward Club gave them the
majority of their runs.
Brislin did the pitching for the Tigers
and was batted pretty bard at times, but
was well supported in the diamond and
outfield. Kelly was in the box for the
Fourth Ward Club, and with good sup
port would have made the game pretty
hot for the Tigers, but errors were against
him.
The score by innings as follows :
Tigers 1 2 5 3 1 2 I—ls
Fourth Ward 1 2 1 0 0 0 o—4

Weekly Coal Report.
The anthracite marketß both in the
East and West are reported quiet, and
little activity is expected until after the
4th of July. There is considerable coal
being moved on orders placed during
April and May at tho then ruling prices,
but there is not a great deal of new ISuni
ness doing at the June circular figures.
Some of the individual operators report
they have recently been booking many
orders for the saleable sizes at satisfac
tory prices, but the larger companies are
asking the net Juno circular prices, and
while some of them are accepting con
tracts at prices closely approximating
these figures, others are declining orders
for immediate delivery at less than the
full net prices. The general sales agents
of the anthracite corporations will meet
on Tuesday to agree upon the quantity
of coal to be mined in the month of July
and to increase the selling prices if pos
sible.
The Financial Chronicle of Saturday
publishes the following review of the
situation of the anthracite trade :
Evidence multiplies that the anthracite
coal trade is getting into very much better
shape. In our statement of netearnings
for the month of April the group of coal
roads show a larger percentage of gain
than any other. And the figures for pro
duction, stocks, &c., for the month of
May, which has just been published by
Mr. John H. Jones, the Chief of the
Bureau of Anthracite Coal Statistics, are
also very favorable in their nature. In
the first place, there has been a further
reduction in stocks at tidewater shipping
points, reducing the amount to 719,939
tons, against over a million tons (1,020,-
107 tons) on January 1. With this re
duction tidewater stocks now stand lower
than at the corresponding date of any
recent year. Thus while the present
total is 719,939 tons, on June 1, 1889, it
was 962,066 tons; on June 1.1888, 812,425
tons, anil on June 1, 1887, it was 754,205
tons. It it is also well to note that the
month's production was in excess of the
corresponding month of other years.
The allotment for the month was greatly
exceeded, and hence tlie output is 80,020
tons above the heavy output of May, 1889.
But, as stocks were diminished notwith
standing the increased production, it is
evident that the consumption, or rather
tlie amount of coal passing out of the
hands of the producers, was on a large
scale. In point of fact, the consumption
was nearly 200,000 tons greater than in
the same month last year, which, of
course, is an especially satisfactory feat
ure, as it indicates that consumers and
retail dealers are laying in supplies and
repleshing stocks under the inducement
of the prevailing prices.
The total amount of anthracite coal
sent to market for the week ending
June 14th, as reported by the Heveral
carrying companies, was 823,415 tons,
compared with 734,553 tons in the corres
ponding week last year, an increase of
88,862 tons. The total amount of an
thracite mined thus far in the year 1890
was 12,669,486 tons com pared with 12,855,-
903 tons for the same period last year, a
decrease of 186,057 tons.— Ledqer.
