Fine Uniform*.
While on a tour of investigation a few
days ago our attention was called to the
tailoring establishment of J. J. Powerß,
on lower Centre street, by observing
what appeared to be a military uniform
laying on the counter. Upon going into
the store we were surprised to see that
the old veteran was busily engaged mak
ing uniforms for the Kazi'mierz Pulawski
(Polish) Beneficial Society, of South
Heberton. The Society numbers twenty
five members, but about eighteen suits
are being made at present.
The suit is made of the finest beaver
cloth, and consists of coat and pants, with
red trimmings and regulation buttons.
They are finely made and we have no
doudt will showtogood advantage. Mr.
Powers received the order but a short
time ago—as it was not known until two
weeks ago that the society would take
part in the Fourth of July celebration —
but with his usual business tact and army
experience he knew what was needed,
, and so finished the whole of them on
, time.
Societies and military organizations in
need of uniforms—where a neat fit, good
material and first-class workmanship are
the requisites—should consult slr.Powers,
as, from his large experience as a military
man coupled with that of a good work
nian and fair prices, he will surely please
them.
Lecture anil Entertainment.
The lecture and entertainment held
under the auspices of the Young Men's
T. A. B. Society, of Freeland, at Yannes'
opera House, on Tuesday evening, July
Ist, was one of the grandest affairs of
the kind ever witnessed in Freeland.
Long before the time set for the opening
of the proceedings the large hall began
to fill up, and when the Chairman of the
evening, Mr. Frank Brady, stepped to
the front of the stage there was scarcely
standing room in the hall or gallery.
Mr. John Brady, in behalf of the so
ciety, made an address of welcome, and
gave a general review of the society
from its organization, in which he showed
what had been accomplished by the
members financially, morally and in
tellectually. His address was one of in
struction and was replete with good ad
vices as to the future policy of the
organization.
The following programme was then
carried through :
Quartette, "Moonlight Will Come Again"
Mrs. Hayes, Misses Reilly and Chas.
Mcerschbacher.
Piano Solo. "The Robins Return"
Miss Mame Dougherty.
Address Rev. M. J. Fallihee
Solo "The Raft"
■ C. Mcerschbacher.
Recitation "Suppose"
Miss Mame Hayes.
Solo "My Heart's Delight"
Master George Reilly.
Recitation "Little Boy Blue"
John McMenamin.
Medley of Irish airs, Jas. and Mame
McDonald.
Silent Drill St. Ann's Pioneer Corps
Piano Solo "Music on the Water"
Mrs. Peter Reilly.
Lecture, "The Present Time or As Wo
Are," Bernard McManus, of Wilkes-
Barre.
Quartette, "Come Where the Lillics
Bloom," Mrs. Hayes, Misses Reilly
and C. Mcerschbacher.
The address of Rev. M. J. Fallihee
was one that brought down the house.
In it he advised the young men to beware
of that disease commonly known as "a
swelled head," and byway of illustra
tration cited an instance of a Kansas post
master, who became so full of egotism as
to insist upon his patrons coming into
the pOBt-office with uncovered heads, but
after a dose of treating, in the way of
mopping up the floor of the post-office
with him, he cried hold, enough, and
thanked those who took such interest in
his treatment, and was completely cured.
The Rev. gentlemen dwelt upon the
fact, that to make a society a success all
its members should work in unity, and
gave by illustration the manner in which
our National State and Municipal Gov
ernments are carried on. The minority
is never found in open revolt against
the majority, but work on no matter
who is at its head, and so it should be in
societies; all should work in unity for
the common good. At the close of his
address he was enthusiastically cheered.
The lecture of Beynard McManus was
the leading feature of the evening and
the one all eyes were centered on. As
Mr. McManus came forward to speak he
was warmly received. He commenced
by referring to the number of invitations
lie had from other societies similarly
situated as this one was, and how, owing
to business engagements, he had de
clined, but when he received the invita
tion to speak here to-night he could not
refuse it; for it came from the friends of
his youth and so near to the home of his
birth, that he made up his mind to ac
cept it.
lie then took up the subject of his lec
ture and for over one hour the audience
was kept in good humor, and ut the close,
when the gentleman beßonght them as
Americans to be true to themselves,
their neighbor and their country, the ap
plAuse which followed was tremendous.
The exhibition drill by the St. Ann's
Pioneer Corps was good, and goes far to
show what man is capable of doing
under proper instuction.
At the close of the programme dancing
was indulged in, and seventy couples
participated m the grand march, which
was led by Mr. Wlliiain Brogan and Miss
Kate Rogan. Dancing wis continued
until morning, when all dispersed to
their homes well pleased with the even
ing's enjoyment.
The St. Patrick's Cornet Band ren
dered some choice music before the
meeting opened.
A Justice Outwitted.
Tuesday evening while McClcllen's
circus was exhibiting near the L. V.
It. It. depot an attraction of another
kind was going on in a side tent in the
shape of gambling.
As is usual with such concerns, a gang
of sharpers follow and fleece the unwary.
Some of Freeland sports got badly taken
in and were sensible enough to say noth
ing about it. John Itasay, of the Points,
was one of their victims to the extent
of forty-five dollars and at once had a
warrant sworn out before Squire Davis,
of the Points, who had one of the gang
brought before him on a charge of gamb
ling. At the trial a number of witnesses
were examined on both sides, the de
fondant having 110 less than thirteen, all
of whom swore that he was not the man
who they saw handle the walnut shells
and pea nails; yet the prisoner was found
guilty and in default of bail held to ap
-1 ear at court. The policeman of the
uorough, who made the arrest, was quiet
ly talking to a friend outside the build
ing while the trial was going on, and,
not knowing whether the prisoner was
liberated or not, saw him prss out from
the office and go about his business. Not
until his honor came out bareheaded
and asked in a stentorian voice, "where
are the constables," did anyone know
that there was anything wrong. But such
was the case, for while the Justice was
writing out a commitment, the wily fox,
seeing his way clear, arose from the
chair and the audience parted to the
right and to the left and allowed him to
escape.
Much sympathy was expressed for his
honor by those present, and the expres
sion was used by many that "it is hard
to beat a man at his own game."
The Firemen to lMc-nic.
The members of Freeland Citizens'
Hose Company No. 1, met at their room
yesterday evening, and after going
through the routine business, appointed
a committee of nine to make arrange
ments for their annual pic-nic, which
will be held on the 18th of this month.
Invitations are being Bent out to neigh
boring bands and societies to take part
in the festivities.

Weekly Coal Report.
The Anthracite Coal Sales Agents met
at New York on Tuesday of last week and
• agreed upon the July output,, which was
fixed at three and one-quarter million
tons, or about the actual quantity that
i was mined in the month of June, for
which month the actual production ex
[ ceeded that which the managers had
L previously agreed to mine by about half
a million tons. An increase of from 10
, to 15 cents per ton on the domestic sizes,
' to take effect on July Ist, was also or
dered at the sales agents' conference,
and this hrd the effect of hurrying in to
the hands of shippers many orders for
coal at the old prices, fearing they might
be compelled to pay the new figures on
and after July 1. It is not unlikely
that the July production of anthracite
will considerably exceed the allotted
tonnage for that month if the present
movement of coal may be taken as an
indiction. There is apparently a more
confident feeling on the part of the pro
ducers regarding the outlook for the
trade during the remainder of the year,
and the mining and carrying corpora
tions are reported to be now working
very harmoniously and adhering better
to the circular prices for anthracite.
The Pottsville Miners' Journal, in its
weekly review of the anthracite trade,
says : "The only important event of the
week has been the fixing of the rates and
allotment for July. The former shows
an advance of 10 cents on egg and stove
and 15 cents on broken. The latter has
been fixed at 3,250,000 tons, as against
3,627,523 tons for July, 1880. The esti
mated allotment for the balance of the
year is 4,000,000 tons a month for all but
December, which is put at 3,000,000.
This will give a total of about 38,000,000
tons for the year. The trade is quiet in
all quarters. Much coal is in storage
waiting for a brisker demand, which will
close it out at a good profit and will help
out the deficit for the earlier part of the
year in which it was mined. The stored
coal was mined at much less than the
prevailing prices. The storage system
for this reason seems likely to consider-
I ably add to the profits of the trade and
! render it reasonably remunerative, pro-
I vided the harmony heretofore existing
continues and no ruinous rate wars oc
cur."
I The total amount of anthracite coal
i sent to market for the week ending
! June 21th, as reported by the several |
carrying companies, was 835,017 tons,
compared with 753,742 tons in the corres
ponding week last year, an increase of I
81,275 tons. The total amount of an- (
thracite mined thus far in the year 1890 |
was 14,328,278 tons compared with 14,344,- 1
198 tons for the same period last year, a
decrease of 15,920 tons.— Ledqer.
