About five o'clock yesterday afternoon an accident happened at the old station at the Lumber Yard. Patrick Helferty, a single man, aged 35 years, employed for the past two years on the strippings at Ilazle Brook and Stockton, while re turning from up the road towards the tunnel, got on the rear end of a moving coal train, and, while jumping off near his boarding house, fell and in some manner got under the wheels and was terribly mangled. T. A. Buckley, Dep. Coroner, was noti fied by the R. R. officials and upon his arrival an investigation was had and the body viewed. The Coroner decided that there was no need of an inquest, as the death was caused by his own neglect. Not being an employe of the road he had no business on the cars. Undertaker Boyle from Hazleton ar rived shortly after 8 p. m. and took charge of the remains. The deceased was about 2 yearß in this country and boarded with John Dennion and was never before known to ride on the coal cars. Celebrate Labor Day.

BASE BALL. —The York club—better known as the Cuban Giants—will contest with Freeland at the park on Sunday after noon. The York team has been consi derably strengthened since they played here last season and will no doubt put up a good game. The manager of the Freeland club will also place an excep tionally strong team in the field and a good game is assured. —The famous Lehighton team will come to Drifton on Saturday afternoon and cross bats witli the team of the lat ter place. The Drifton club is anxious to redeem the defeat given them at Le highton on Friday last and will put up a strong game against their opponents. I)o not fail to attend as this will undoubt edly be the most exciting game of the season. Usual admission. Game called ut 3.36 p. m. DRIFTON AT I.BHIGHTON. The Drifton club went to Lehighton Friday afternoon to play the team at that place, and the unanimous verdict of the audience was that the game was one of the prettiest ever witnessed on those grounds. The contest throughout was as brilliant an exhibition of ball flaying as any person could wish to see. Sharp fielding and scientific playing were noticeable features from beginning to end. The batteries were lleiser and Mulvey and Rothermal and Jennings, and the umpires Boner and Bartholomew. Drifton had a slight advantage in batting, but Lehighton put up the finest fielding. Errors at critical periods of the game is the only cause that can be assigned for Drifton's defeat, and those were made by two of the most reliable men of the team. The friends of both clubs were out strong and the interest was unabated un til the winning run was made. The following gives the runs, hits, errors and a summary of the game : R. R. X. Drifton 0 00 0 0 1 1 1 o—3 8 6 Lehighton.. .0 0002 00 1 I—4 0 1 Earned run, Lehighton 1. Two-base hit, Mulvey. Bases stolen, Lehighton, 3; Drifton, 5. Bases on balls, Drifton, 3; Lehighton, 2.

The day was unsuitable for base hall playing, a high wind and cold weather having a tendency to cause many errors on both sides. As soon aB the game began the Tigers found the hall and pushed it far and often into the outfield. So persistent were they at this work that Kelly, Summit Hill's pitcher, was forced to retire at the end of the fourth inning. Several times the home club threatened to send for the famous battery, Gormley and Christinan, and in this they were encouraged by the Free land sluggers, who were only tooanxious to test their strength againßt Carbon County's "phenom." Heedless of tie warning they continued pounding the ball for two more innings and knocked an other twirler out of the liox. At this stage of the game the crack battery ar rived and two men were laid off to make way for them. With the expectation of seeing every Tiger that came to bat fan the wind the new comers were introduced with the cheers of nearly a thousand people. But the Tigers were not fanning wind on Saturday and batted without the slightest regard for Gormley's repu tation. His little curves and twists were ! just the kind the Tigers live on, and two i two-baggers and five singles was the amount of hitting they placed to their credit in the three innings he pitched against them. Brislin and Gaffncy were the Tigers battery, and worked in their : usual elegant style. After the game a picnic was held by the home club and the visitors were pleasantly entertained until a late hour. The boys are loud in their praise of the excellent manner in which they were treated by the Summit Hill people, and it is rumored that several of the Tigers left their hearts in possession of the Carbon county girls. FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, AUGUST 28, 1890. The Democratic Convention.. Since the last issue of the TRIBUNE ! two very important conventions have been held by the Democrats, and the results attained in both instances are of such a character as may be commended to the voters of the respective districts. LEGISLATIVE CONVENTION. The delegates to the Fourth Legislative District Convention met at Hazleton on Saturday and placed in nomination P. F. Boyle, of Hazleton, a prominent con tractor and builder of our neighboring town. Mr. Boyle is no novice in legisla tive affairs, having served two successive terms in the House of Representatives as a member from Lehigh county, from 1881 to 1885. He has filled several local offices in the City of Allentown, and his course while ill public life has always been for the best interests of his con stituents. The morning session was devoted to routine business, the election of officers and appointment of committees. The afternoon session opened at 2.30 o'clock, and after receiving the reports of com mittees, etc., the following names were presented for the nomination of repre sentative : P. F. Boyle, Hazleton; James Collins, John Brady, Freeland; P. Duffy, Milnesville. The result of the first ballot was Boyle, 13; Collins, 13; Brady, 9; Duffy, 1. Twenty-eight ballots were taken without any change from this vote, and the convention adjourned until 7 p. m. Upon re-assembling voting was continued without any material change until the forty-second ballot, when Mr. Brady took the floor and in a short ad dress condemned the actions of certain delegates, thanked those who aided him and stated as there was no chance in the convention for him he would withdraw from the field. The next ballot resulted : Boyle, 18$; Collins, 16$. A new district committee was appoint ed and the following are the members from this side ; James Maloy, Freeland; Wm. Gallagher, Sandy Run; George McGee, Upper Lehigh; John B. Carr, Eckley. The report of the committee on resolu tions, which was unanimously adopted, is given below. Special attention is called to its last paragraph, which has the true ring of tax reform in it : WHEREAS. The Democracy of the Fourth Representative district of Luzerne county, assembled in convention to-day, renew their lldelity to the principles set forth by their party in the State, and we pledge ourselves to make au earnest effort to have these principles prevail, knowing that they are for the best in terest of tile people in general; therefore l>e it Hi:*lived.

That we favor a division of Lu zerne county and that a new uounty be erected out of the territory prescribed in tho act be fore the last legislature uml thut we use all honest efforts to bring about the erection of auid new uouuty. Heeolved, That thu Democratic party of tho 4tli legislative district in convention assembled do recommend and pledge the nominee of this convention to work and vote to secure the adop tion of the Australian system of voting in the Ntuto, and support no man for United States Senator who upholds this unjust system of taxa tion known aa the protective tariff. COUNTY CONVENTION. The convention met at Germania Hall, Wilkes-Barre, on Tuesday morning, and at 10.30 the assemblage was called to or der by Chairman English, who an nounced that the first business to be done would be the appointing of a Committee on Contested Seats. At this announce ment a number of names were offered and the following selected : J. A. Baur, Jos. Minnick, J. C. Brader, P. M. Boyle, Jas. Kennedy, Abram Hetler and Clias- Shoemaker. A Committee on Permanent Organiza tion was appointed as follows : Frank Dunn, Wilkes-Barre; Edward Barret, Pittston; Amos Berger, White Haven; Patrick Finn, Miners Mills; Edward Turnbach, Hazleton. A Committee on Resolutions was also appointed, consisting of the following, being one from each legislative district: W. I. Hibbs, West Pittston; Arthur Featlierstone, Wilkes-Barre; Dr. Mahon, Plymouth Township; T. F. Laubach, Hazleton; Patrick Finn, Miners Mills; James Auld, West Pittston. The chairman announced that there being no further business to transact, un til the Committee on Contested Scats were ready to make their report, a motion to adjourn until 2 p. m. was made and car ried. AFTERNOON BEBBION. At 2.30 Chairman English called the convention to order and the first busi ness done was the reading of the report on contested seats. The next in order was the report of the Committee on permanent organiza tion who presented the following as the result of their deliberations: Chairman, Hon. W. H. Iliues; Secretaries, T. C. Mullaly and Wm. L. Lubrecht; Tellers, Thomas W. Hart, Con F. Bohau, Chas. F. McHugh, John Kearney, Jerome Eckenrode, John Shovlln, Chas. Lavan. Mr. Conlan, of Pittston, again took the floor, and protested againßt the report of the committee, and offered an amend ment to the report, "that the officers of the convention be chosen from among the delegates present ." The call of the roll was then taken on the question and the report of the committee agreed to by a vote of 133 to 74. The chairman appointed Dr. E. 11. Coolbaugh, Wm. Conlan and Dr. W. T. Mahon a committee to escort Mr. Mines to the platform. On taking the chair Mr. Hines de livered a brief but able address, in which he stated the mendacity of the Republi can candidates for Governor and Lieu tenant Governor towards the working men of this State when the Beveral bills intended to advance their interests were introduced in the last legislature and asked the farmers and workingmen to cast their ballots against their most bit ter enemy (the said candidate) at the next election. The following were then presented by the Committee on Resolutions : Reeolxied, That the Democratic party of Lu zerne county in convention assembled, heartily and enthusiastically endorse the Democratic Htute ticket of Pennsylvania, the platform of principles upon which the candidates standi und particularly the candidates tlwmeelvee, whose lives and deeds contribute a platform upon which all friends of honest irovernraeut may unite—assured by the past that with such candidates faithfulness to the interest of tho masses is not a matter of profession but of principle fully proved and tested. 2.—That the issue in the present campaign is between that form of politics which uses the public treasury as a corruption fund, and the revenue laws to advuuee personal |x)litical interests: the pardoning power of the State to shield favored political criminals from merited punishment; the public offices to be formed for selfish purposes; the halls of legislation to pro mote measures inimical to the public welfare, typified in the person of Matthew Stanley Quay, now United States Senator from this Common wealth and that system which believes public ; offices to be a public trust; the public officer, i the servant, not the master, of the people; that the constitution is for the government of the corporations as well as for private persons: and that the public funds be honestly and faithfully applied to the payment of the actual expenses of the State personified in that illus trious exponent of honest government, the Democratic candidute for Governor, Robert Emory Pattisou. 3d, that we bespeak for the ticket this day nominated the undivided support of the Demo crats of Luzerne County, and pledge ourselves to secure for the labors of this day a decided ! endorsement by a triumphant election in Nov ember.

At this stage of the proceedings Col. Martin took the floor and thanked the delegates for the support they had given ! him and made a strong plea for the I united support of the Democracy of the ! county in behalf of Mr. Reynolds, and closed by asking that the nomination of Mr. Reynolds be made unanimous, which was done.

An invention of considerable import ance to miners lias just been patented by William K. Lord, of Mt. Carmel, and William Bullock, of Centralia, both of whom are miners of long experience. It consists of an annunciator, which is designed to be placed in mines, to warn employes of the presence of dangerous gaßes, and thereby prevent explosions and consequent loss of life. The invention consists in a fan-wheel located in the air way of a mine which, by means of intermediate wheels and the pinion on the shaft, rotates a disk bearing a number of pins which actuate a lifter arm and completes an electric circuit at intervals. On the shaft is also a spring governor, which, when the air is passing at a normal speed, keeps the circuit open, but as Boon as the requisite amount of air ceases to pass through the airway and the speed of the indicator slackens, the circuit closes and the tele phone or alarm bellß in the office or en gine room ring continuously, notifying the officials at once that the air is cut off, and, if not soon attended to, the deadly mine gases will soon be gathering in the mine. The annunciator is so arranged that while the required number of feet of air is passing the alarm outside will give regular taps, but as soon as checked the bells ring continuously, until the obstacle is removed, or bells are cutoutof circuit. The cost required to erect the machine is said to he only trilling. Only a single line of common wiro is needed for each instrument. The elec tricity can be furnished for an ordinary mine with eight cells of any good battery, but a magneto generator, driven by a small cord from the line Bhaft of tiie fan engine, is preferred. Tho annunciator is to be moved onward as the work of mining progresses, so as to always be in side of the abandoned portions of the mine. Weekly Coal Report. The anthracite coal trade, in the lan guage of a shipper of upwards of 25 years' experience, continues in a state of almost unprecedented "congested stag nation." There lias been so much coal already forwarded to New England points this season that the present low rate of vossel freights is no longer an in ducement to dealers there to make addi tional purchases, notwithstanding the knowledge that freight rates show indi cations of stiffening und will soon be ad vanced, Considerable coal has also been "stocked" at Western lake distributing points, and the mining and carrying companies have a large accumulation of coal stored near the mines and at tide water. In fact, until recently the re striction of output which had been agreed upon by the managers of the an thracite producing interests early in the year was not faitlifully adhered to, and the present large accumulation of coal in first hands and the ruling low prices are the result, NOTES FROM OTHER TOWNS. —Scott Shoemaker, who was night clerk at the Foreßt house, Scranton, committed suicide by blowing out his brains on Tuesday. —Congressman Lewis F.
