Slight Wreck at Pond Creek.
While a heavy train of coal cars was
approaching Pond Creek on Saturday,
on the branch of the Jersey Central
Railroad, the flange of one of the wheels
on the locomotive tender suddenly broke
off, causing it to jump the track. Several
ears were piled on top of each other and
considerably smashed, which also did
slight damage to the tracks. Traffic on
that section was blocked for the re
mainder of the day, all up-trains being
compelled to run* via. Penn Haven
Junction.

day morning were they successful in en
tirely extinguishing the flames, which
burned all the timbers and caused the
pillars to run. A large force of men
were set to work to re-timber the place
and make it secure. The cause of the
fire is unknown.

BASE lIALL.
DRIFTON WHIPS AUDENRIED.
Quite an interesting game was played
at the Drifton park on Saturday after
noon between liie Audenried and Drif
ton clubs in the presence of about eight
hundred spectators. The Drifton club
began their run-getting in the second
inning and kept adding to their score un
til the end of the game, when they
found it to he 8 to 3 in their favor.
The game was replete with brilliant
plays, the Drifton hoys especially doing
fine work in every department. Both
clubs had out their strongest players
and the work of hotti sides was splendid.
Peter Gallagher, pitcher of the Auden
ried club was struck in the fourth inning
by a batted ball.
The principal feature of the game was
the terrific hatting of Boner, who pound
ed the ball for two two-baggers and three
singles. The score by innings as follows:
Drifton 0 3 o*2 2 0 1 0 o—B
Audenried 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 2 —3
THE CLIPPERS DEFEATED.
About nine hundred enthusiastic base
imllists assembled at the Freeland purk
on Sunday afternoon to witness the game
between the Clippers, of Wilkes-Barre,
and the Freeland team. The game was
interesting throughout and at the end
resulted in another victory for the Free
land boys by a score of 13" to 3. Umpire
Boner called the game at 3 o'clock with
the home team at the bat, who were re
tired without a run. The visitors were
also blanked in their half of the first
inning. The Clippers, however, took
the lead in the second inning, having
scored two runs, and maintained it until
the fifth, when the home players began
to pound the hall and at the end of that
inning had placed 3 scores to their credit.
The home club then retained the lead
throughout the remainder of the game,
only allowing their opponents to score
hut one more run. The following is the
score by innings:
Clippers 02000 010 0— 3
Freeland 00003240 4—13
—The Jeanesville club defeated New
Boston on Saturday. Score 6-0.
—The Sandy Run club defeated the
Gimlers on Saturday by a score of 5 to 6.
—The Clerks of Drifton and Freeland
plffyed at the park on Friday. The
score resulted 6 to 16 in favor of Drifton.

Sunday afternoon between the Allentown
professional team and the home club.
Game called at 3 o'clock. Admission as
usual.
—The Drifton club will cross hats with
the Hazleton Mines team, of Hazleton,
at the park next Saturday afternoon.
The fact that Johnny McGeehan and
his nine will be on hand is a guarantee
that a close game will he played. Game
called at 4.30 p. m. Usual admission.
FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, AUGUST 14, 1890.
Brlittol Tradesmen.
At the meeting of the Bristol Board of
Trade on Thursday night, H. G. Peters,
the Chairman of the Committee on Re
tail Business, took the residents of the
place to task for going to Philadelphia to
make their purchases instead of patron
izing the local dealers. "There are peo-
I pie of this town," he said, "and I regret
to say it, who, if they want a pound of
| coffee, a yard of tape, a collar-button or
! a toothpick, will send or go to Philadel
§hia for it. It is unjust to the reputable
usiness people of this community."
Further discussion of the subject was
then postponed until the next meeting of
the Board.— Phila. Record.
The same state of things exists in
Freeland to-day. Many of our peoplo
go or send to Ilazleton for their supplies
in preference to the home merchant who
pays rent, mercantile and other taxes,
and is helping to improve our town. We
are sorry to say that in most cases of
this kind it is the people who own their
own hoineß are the ones to aid the for
eign business men. If they had left
their earnings with the company stores,
where they are employed, no one could
blame them, but to order their supplies
from outside parties who do not leave a
dollar a year in our town is too much.
Patronize home trade. When trouble,
sickness, or any other misfortune befall
you these people of Ilazleton and other
towns will give you the cold shoulder,
and then what are you to do? Whereas,
if you dealt with a home merchant, you
will be sure of being taken care of.
Try it.
Vmler New Management.
The Catholic Record of Scranton has
passed into new hands and is now is
sued in an improved form and with an
addition of one column to each page. Its
former proprietor, Mr. J. C. Vauglian,
has retired from the business and T.'II. C.
Maloney is now in charge of the edi
torial department. Mr. Maloney is a
bright journalist and after perusing the
the first issue under his management we j
are convinced that he is thoroughly '
capable of expounding the principles I
advocated by the paper over which he has ■
been placed. It has also undergone a j
slight change in the name, being now
known as the Diocesan Record.
The Place to Get Your Clothing.
I. Reiforwich, the clothing merchant
and gents' furnisher, is at No. 37, Centre
street, Freeland, with a stock of goods,
that for quality, cannot be surpassed in
this region. Hats, Caps, Boys' and Men's
Clothing a special feature. A large stock
of suits made to order for $25.00 reduced
to $17.00. This is a saving to persons of
limited means over ready-made clothing.
Clothing made to order by experienced
workmen at short notice and at the low
est prices. A large stock of piece goods
to select from. Ready-made clothing of
all sizes and stvles.
Our Girls and Boys.
There, were two little girls at New
port last summer, says the Boston
Traveller, who attracted more than the
ordinary interest attached to children
of wealthy people. These two maidens
wore Gertrude and Consuelo Vander
bilt, and in a few years they will be
the richest heiresses in society.
They are not sisters, but cousins,
and as entirely dissimilar in appear
ance and character as though no drop
of the same blood flowed iu their veins.
But they are close companions and ap
parently fond of one another, and when
one drives out in her little dog-cart the
other is sure to appear also.
Gertrude is the oldest daughter of
Cornelius Vanderbilt. She is about 13
years old, anil the fairies have given
her the fair beauty of the "Snow Prin
cess" as well as her pot of gold. Her
resemblance to little Elsie Leslie of
"Fauntlerov" fame is often comment
ed upon. She has the same long curls,
deep blue eyes, oval face, and pearly
complexion. She is tall for her age.
and has such a pretty, willowy little
figure, dainty hands, and slender, arch
ed feet. Her nature is sweet and sun
ny. Naturally shy with strangers, she
is full of merriment witli those she
knows.
Little Consuelo is about the same
age, and is the oldest of W. K. Van
derliilt's children. She is named for
Lady Matideville, and is an old little
creature, with a tliiu, graceful little
figure, and a dark Mignon face, lit by
two serious gray eyes as deep as wells
and as bright as stars. Her hair is
like a tangle of dark shadows about
her head, and her little mouth, which
often has such mutinous curves, is as
scarlet as a pomegranate.
She has been twice around the world
Alva, and iu many strange coun
tries; and the littlo sprite can talk iu
Japanese aud Italian as well as in Ger
man and French. Iu fact she is high
ly educated as though she were a prin
cess royal, plays classical music,
sketches, rides, anil drives, aud knows
more about the stars and the waves
than many a college graduate.
Some day each of these children will
probably have a fortune of at least
$10,000,000, and when tlioy make their
debut into society they will eclipse all
other heiresses of the time. Both "-iris
are always simply dressed—pretty
ginghams trimmed with white em
broidery, russet shoes, and big flower
trimmed hats for the morning, and soft
white mulls and muslins, with broad
sashes, white hats, aud fine black stock
ings and patent leather ties, for the af
ternoon.
They arc never seen at night, but
are tucked away in their little beds,
sleeping the beauty sleep that will
grow them into beautiful young wo
men. They spend their days playing
tennis, horseback riding, driving their
ponies to little, light wood dog carts,
and go to dancing and swimming
schools. Each girl lias a governess,
who devotes her entire time to her pu
pil, and, if they do not grow into beau
tiful, cultivated women, it will not be
from lack of attention.

Weekly Coal Report.
The anthracite coal trade continues j
excessively dull, and it is without any |
especially noteworthy feature. During
the past two or three weeks a better
effort has been made by the several com- j
panies to restrict the output, so that the |
total production for this year thus far
lias been reduced to more tnan a quarter
million of tons less than that mined in
the corresponding period of 1889. The
condition of the anthracite business in
the Eastern and Western States is like
wise in a stagnant state, the supply of
coai there being superabundant and the
demand small. The tonnage of anthra
cite received at Boston harbor for the
seven months ending July 31, 1890, was
906,685 tons, an increase of 113,263 tons
compared with the quantity received
there in the corresponding period of last
year.
The Pottsville itinera' Journal lias the
following about the anthracite trade:
"There has been no increased activity in
tlie trade since last report. It was hoped
that the first week in August would show J
some sign of improvement, but the re
ports from the coal centres show that the [
sluggishness of the June and July trade j
has not been disturbed. Of course this )
inactivity cannot continue long, and it is J
possible that before September 1 there!
will be a gratifying change for the bet
ter. The output continues heavy, but
the sales are limited and the prices even
below the list prices. The tonnage in )
stock cannot remain longer than Sep
tember Ist, when the heated term begins
to abate and the mills resume more regu
lar work. The domestic trade will also
take a spurt by that time and the de
mand will show a decided improve
ment."
The total amount of anthracite coal
sent to market for the week ending
August 2d, as reported by the several j
carrying compameß, was 719,715 tons, I
compared with 860,294 tons in the corres
ponding week last year, a decrease of
140,579 tons. The total amount of an-1
thraeite mined tlms far in the year 1890 j
was 18,882,563 tons compared with 19,176,-
428 tons for the snme period last year, a I
decrease of 293,865 tons ,—Ledqer. 1
