Firemen Pic-Nic.
The pic-nic held under the auspices of
the Citizens' Hose Co., of Freeland, at
the park last Friday was a grand success
numerically, socially and financially.
As per announcement in last week's
TRIBUNE, the members of the Company
met at the hose house Friday morning
and proceeded with one hose carriage
and tested all the fire plugs in the bor
ough, as well as the three located in the
township, and found them all in good
condition.

Band. After parading all the streets
they returned to the pic-nic ground
at the park, when dancing commenced,
the Depierro's Orchestra furnishing the
music. At seven o'clock the St. Patrick's
Cornet Band arrived, and later the
P. O. S. of A. Band, of Freeland, each
of these organizations bringing large
numbers, until at one time it was estim
ated that nearly one thousand people
were on the ground. The best of order
prevailed, and at the close all retired
well pleased with the first home pic-nic
of the Citizens' Hose Co.
At the meeting of the committee in
charge of the arrangements, held in their

Cornet Band, the P. 0. S. of A. Band
and all others who in any way assisted
to make the occasion a success.
Too Mncli Mother-In-Law.
Tuesday evening John Baely, a Hun
garian, living on the lower end of Main
street, was brought before T. A. Buckley,
by a warrant issued at the instance of
his wife, Annie Baely, charging him
with beating her and failing to properly
support her. On the trial it was proven
that the mother-in-law and the wife paid
for the furniture and other effects in the
house—the mother-in-law having a quan
tity of money in her own right—and
that the biggest share of the supplies
for their support were paid for by her,
and now when the money is all gone he
has no more use for her and wants his
wife and her mother to go away, Fail
ing to comply with his wishes he resorted
to threats and violence as stated above.
The amount meted out by this fiend to
his wife for the support of three persons
never exceeded sl3 a month, as shown
by theirstore book. And yet this man
was hoarding up money, and hiding it in
different places around the house and
stable and frequently taking it with liira
to the mines.
A compromise was effected, by which
the wife received fifty dollars, and will,
with her mother, shortly sail for her
native country.
Council Meeting.
At a special meeting of the Borough
Council, held at the council room last
evening, the question of the drain on

MAH A NOY—DRIFTON.
The Mahanoy City Club crossed bats
with the Drifton team on the tatter's
grounds on Saturday. Ten innings were
necessary to decide the game, which re
sulted in favor of Mahanoy by a score
of 10 to 9.
THE KICKERS DEFEATED BY THE TIGERS.
The Kickers, of Jeddo, came to Free
land on Sunday afternoon to test their
knowledge anil skill in base ball with
the Tigers and were vanquished by a
score of 14 to 2. The Kickers were
anxious to redeem thedefeat they met at
the hands of the Tigers recently, and
placed the strongest team they could pro
cure against them, even players of the
Freeland Club, viz., S. Welch, E. Mc-
Geelian and D. Gillespie. Umpire Mc-
Garvey called the game promptly at 2.30
p. m. with the Tigers at the bat, in
which inning they scored seven runs on
account of the wild pitching of "Pic"
Brislin. The latter retired in the half
of the first inning and was substituted
by Welch. The Kickers scored their
first and last runs in the seventh inning.
With two men on base McGeehan knock
ed a fly out between center and left field,
which was sought by McGeehan and
Gallagher, who, however, collided just
as the former was reaching for the ball,
and allowed two runs to score.
The score by innings as follows :
Tigers 7 0140002 o—l4
Kickers 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 0-2
The Tigers Base Ball Club would like
to launch their boat in the base ball sea
with the Drifton Club in the near future.
Should they agree to give them a
game it would be well if they could
name a date as soon as possible, as the
Tigers are anxious to cope with them.
The Junior Gimlers, of Highland,
went to White Haven on Saturday last
and defeated the First club of that place,
in a game of six innings, by a score of
13 to 8.
The Tigers will play a game of base
ball with the Terrors, of Eckley, Sun
day afternoon on the latter's grounds.

brush dogs are requested to keep them

What He Hail In His Box.
"People fetch some mighty clear ar
ticles aboard of a car now and then,"
said the conductor of a Wabash avenue
traiu last night on his home trip.
••They seem to think a street-car is a
combined junk-shop or freight-house
ou wheels or a general delivery wagon.
One evening at Sixteenth street a fel
low rolled a barrel of apples out to the
track. The car was full of passengers
and the platform hadn't standing-room
for a walking-stick, and yet he wanted
to lick me because I wouldn't let him
put his barrel into the car.
"But the queerest thing I ever saw
in the street-car business happened in
my car yesterday afternoon. At State
and Madison streets a middle-aged
man with a long box under his arm got
on the car. He took the rear platform
and stood the box ou end next to the
iron gate. He was a stupid-looking
foreigner, and I took him to be a car
pouter moving his tool-box to another
job. At Twenty-fifth street, as there
was no one else on the platform, I got f
to talking to the mau and asked him ,
what lie had in the box.
'"Oh, that's my son,' lie said, in an
easy sort of way.
'"What!' I gasped, thinking the mail
was joking.
'"lt's my youngest son. He died a
couple of days ago and I took him out 1
to the graveyard this morning, hut the
man at the gate said 1 must have a
pass for the boy, and I'm taking him
hack home until I can get one.'
"He was telling the truth. I sup
pose lie had gone to the cemetery with- i
out a burial permit, and there he was 1
going home again, with corpse stand- '
mg on end aboard of a street-car. It's
the first time I ever acted as conductor 1
on a hearse and I was glad when lie
got off at Thirty-ninth street with his j
box." - - Chicago Mail.
Soap Hubbies.
All hoys and girls like to make soap
bubbles, hut few know how to make
those that will last for an hour if left
uudisturbed. To make them, take
palm-oil soap aud shave finely, then
put the shavings in a large bottle of
distilled water, and shake until dis
solved. Filter this through a piece of
gray filtering paper, fold the paper in
crimps so that it will fit into a funnel.
When the solution is filtered add about
one-third as much glycerine as you
have solution. Always shake well be
fore using. These bubbles must be
blown through a rubber tube fitted on
the tube of a small glass funnel with a
rim two inches in diameter. To have
the hubbies last a loug time blow them
iuto iron rings laid on a piece of carpet
and wet with the solution.— Good
Housekeeping.
Women's Work.
The Sau Francisco Call suggests a
society for lightening the burdens of
women who have liousos to keep in
order, and says:
Does the shoemaker try to lighten
the woman's work by sewing the but
tons on honestly or "tipping" the foot
wear with honest leather? Does the
tailor who makes the pants with his
boasted benevolence of "double knees"
ever put them on the right place or
large enough? Does the carpenter ever
put the nails and hooks where a medi
um-sized woman, let alone a child, can
reach them?
Is there ever hut the fewest possible
shelves that a woman can reach with
out standing on a chair at the risk ol
breaking her back?
It is a very little thing to have no
waterback to a stove—so a man thinks,
but to a wife-of-all-work it is—well,
there is no word strong enough to ex
press the trouble it causes. A sink or
a level, with cold water, is not an easy
thing to keep clean. Why not make a
little deolino? Also bring the zinc over
the odges somewhat. The continual
settling of grease in the line cracks on
interstices is very trying to a delicate
stomached woman.
The bureau-drawers thai never open
or shut without a trial of temper, why
eannot they be made to run smoothly?
It should be declared a punishable
offense to make a window that can not
be brought in to clean.
Men invented all these awkward and
inconvenient things, and men made
them, and they are responsible for the
broken-down, haggard-looking women
we see on the streets, or rather in the
houses.
Weekly Coal lleport.
I The anthracite coal trade is very
quiet and new orders for coal are not
j plentiful, though a considerable tonnage
is being moved at May and June prices.
The manufacturing sizes continue active
and in good demand, but stove and chest
nut are a drug in the market. At the
! meeting of the general sales agents of
j the anthracite companies, held at New
i York last week, an understanding was
reached by which the output for this
| month will be restricted to 3,000,000 tons,
! if possible, or 250,000 tons less than had
j been previously agreed upon. The pro
! posed advance in prices was not made,
as the actual selling prices at present are
about the lowest obtained thus far this \
year.
The total amount of anthracite coal
sent to market for the week ending
July 12th, as reported by tlie several
carrying companies, was 753,913 tons, j
compared with 815,395 tons in the corres-'
ponding week last year, a decrease of
01,482 tons. The total amount of an
; thracite mined thus far in the year 1890
, was 16,580,061 tons compared with 10,590-,
| 577 tons for the same period last year, a
decrease of 10,516 tons.— Ledqer.
