Three Miner* Killed.
James Philips, a miner employed in
No. 4 colliery, and what is known as the
No. 11 vein of the Lehigh and Wilkes-
Barre Coal Company at Audenried, was
killed early yesterday morning. Mr.
Phillips was driving a gangway and was
on the night shift and was making a
place on the lower side for a ditch, when
a large slip gave away, catching him and
instantly crushing the life out of him.
Mr. Phillips was 47 years of age, and
is the father of five children, who, with
his wife, are left to mourn his loss. lie
will be buried at Jeanesville on Sunday
afternoon.
Shortly after Mr. Phillips met his
death, two Polanders who worked in
the same mine were also killed. The
Polanders were drivtnga gangway across
some old broaata and a prop which stood
in their way, they attempted to remove,
when the clod which it was supporting
fell and crushed both before they had
time to get out of the way. Both were
married men, one having his wife in the
old country, and the other a resident of
Audenried with a wife and large family.

An Attempted Burglary.
What might have been a repetition of
; the burglary committed at the store of
| J. C. Berner, corner of South and Wash
ington streets, Freeland, some time ago,
( was happily frustrated yesterday morn
ing by the timely arrival on the scene by
Mr. Berner himself, who, when he en
tered the room the would-be burglars
tied.
For some days past five suspicious look
ing characters were seen around town,
with no fixed purpose, and who made a
practice of selling combs, needles, &c..
' and suspicion fell on them. Inquiry
j showed that three of them put up at the
i Central Hotel on Tuesday night, and
| early yesterday morning they were ar
, rested by Constables Quigley and Sault,
who broughtthem before Squire Buckley
for a hearing.
The facts brought out at the hearing
went to prove that Mr. Berner, having
heard a noise in his store room, arose
and went down ami while going towards
the door noticed two men standing out
side, who fled at his approach. An ex
amination of the door developed the
fact that it had been pried open by a
chisel, or some sharp instrument, causing
the iron fastenings to break. The pris
oners were searched, and nothing found
! in their possession to warrant a sus
picion that they were the parties who
j were at the store, and they having re
' tired to bed at the hotel at an early hour
the night previous, they were discharged.
! This is the second time that Mr. Ber
j ner had the misfortune to be selected as
the victim, but luckily they were foiled
i this time. This should put our mer
chants and business men on their guard
j and be the means of getting them to
j gether for the purpose of employing a
1 private watchman, or else have council
j to employ a special night policeman,
j An attempt was also made to break in
. to several houses at South Heberton on
i Tuesday night—no doubt by the same !
! party who was unsuccessful at Mr. Bur
ner's place.
Father Matthew's Day.
The celebration of the one hundred j
anniversary of the birth of Rev. Theobald
Mathew, the apostle of temperance, was
celebrated in a becoming manner by the i
different T. A. B. Societies of St. Ann's
| parish on October 10th.
| As announced in our last issue, the :
I programme was carried out to the letter,
i lion. Eckley B. Coxe, D. J. McCarthy
j and Rev. F. I'. McNallv, of St. Ann's,
spoke to the large gathering that as- .
I se in bled at the park, after which the '
! picnic was kept up until near 8 p. in.,
when all went to t lie opera house, where
I one of the largest balls ever held in that
! building was carried on. The grand
I march was led by John Mellon and Miss
j Rose B. Carr and was indulged in by 130
: couples. Dancing was kept up until
| early Saturday morning, when all retired j
l well pleased with the day at Freeland.
Accident at Drifton.
James North, a miner, working at No.
j 2 Drifton, had a narrow escape from in- :
| stant death on Monday morning. He 1
was working a pitching breast, and while
at his usual employment a rush of 1
1 coal from the face of the breast fell on
him and threw him down, where lie was 1
i pinioned for about half an hour. His
laborer coming up from the gangway,
after loading a car, found him nearly
buried up. Blanks had to be used to get j
the lumps of coal off his body* He was
severely injured on the back and left
knee, and one of his hands was badly
cut.
Wants a School House Built.
A petition is being prepared for pres
entation to the School Board of Foster
township, at its meeting next Saturday |
; evening, by the residents of Pine Knot
Hill, for the purpose of inducing the 1
Board to build them a school house.
They claim that it is too far to have I
j their children travel to Woodside or ;
South Heberton.
Why not annex to the borough? It is I
only a question of time when annexa
tion will be accomplished.
Will Admitted to Probate.
In the Register's office on Monday j
there were four wills admitted to probate, I
among them beingthat of Sarah Higgins, 1
who, before her death resided at Free- j
land. She leaves everything to her son j
Patrick, and prodives that none of the
property be sold until the youngest child j
is 21 years of age. It also provides j
that the children have the right to
live in the house until they marry or be-1
come of age. The will is dated Dec. 5, j
1889, and Patrick is appointed sole j
j executor. — Newsdealer.

PattiKou at Hazleton.
I -
f Long before the time set for the ar
f rival of ex-Governor Pattison and his
- party at Hazleton, on Tuesday night, the
, streets were thronged by men of all po
litical allilations who were anxious to see
' and hear the leaders of the Democratic
forces.
i : When the train bearing the party ar
-1 rived at Hazleton it was met at the de
- pot by the Central Democrat ic Club ami
, , the Liberty Band, who escorted the
i Gubernatorial party to the the Central
. Hotel.
The meeting at Hazle Hall was called
i to order by Mr. J. B. Hutchison, Presi
-1 dent of the Democratic Club, who in
- | troduced Hon. Eckley B. Coxe as Chair
, man of the meeting.
Mr. Coxe made a brief speech, in
which he addressed those present as fel
* low sufferers and gave plenty of evidence
f before he finished that we of Pennsyl
s | vania, above any other State in the ,
j Union, suffer most from the want of
- j proper legislation. He then introduced I
• James M. Beck, of Philadelphia, who
i ; spoke on the ground issues of the cam-1
i paign.
; Mr. Beck was followed by ex-Gover
■ nor Pattison, who spoke for nearly one
hour. He was listened to with marked
attention, and at the close he said, "why
i should men be compelled to put their
i hands in their pockets to do that which
■ j the State should do for them." Refer
ring to miners and others organizing for
the protection of themselves so as to
secure leigslation in their interest he
said, "under our system of government
every interest in the State ought to be
protected by good sound laws guarantee
ing to every citizen equal rights, but as
now administered by rings and bosses,
there is nothing left you but to demand
a change."
Chauncey F. Black was next intro
duced and spoke on ballot reform and its
necessity in this State, and among other
things said "that under a Democratic
administration the Australian system of
voting would be introduced within one
year after the date of their organization."
W. H. Barclay followed Mr. Black, as
did Maurice F. Wilhere, of Manvunk,
and George Hoffman, of Philadelphia.
An overflow meeting was held op-1
■ posite the Central and was addressed by ,
the same speakers.
At the close of the meeting a special
train conveyed those from the north side !
to their homes, and all seemed enthusias- j
| tic in their praise of the manner in i
which the issues of the day were dis-:
cussed by the different speakers.
Powder Mill ICxploHion.
The corning mill of the Dupont Pow
der Works, near Wapwallopen, blew up
Saturday. The shock was very violent
and was heard and felt for a long dis- '
tanee around. The cause of the acci- j
dent is not known. There was no one
in the building at the time. The struct- !
ure, however, was totally demolished,;
and some of the other buildings were
damaged. Three men who were in the
neighborhood of the mill were injured, I
( one of them, Frank Craber, quite seri- :
( ously.— Newsdealer.
The Place to Get Your Clothing.
I. Reiforwieh, 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
i this region. Hats, Caps, Boys' and Men's ;
Clothing a special feature. A large stock 1
of suits matte to order for $25.00 reduced •

limited means over ready-made clothing.
Clothing made to order by experienced
workmen at short notice and at the low

j all sizes and stvles.
ItlomlshcU May he the Kewult.
A family fued is raging at Evans Falls, '
a small settlement in the upper end of
this county, that has many of the Ken
tucky characteristics. James Moss and
his son were arrested some time ago for j
assaulting R. 11. Fivans. A bridle path
ran across the Moss farm, which they
i notified Evans not to use, but he per
! sisted in doing so. He was shot at and
I afterward beaten. Since then the two
( families have been at war. Evans
caused the arrest of Moss and his sons
i for illegal fishing. That night some one
j fired a load of shot at him through a
i window in his house, slightly wounding
' him. A day or two after, the house of
j Moss was set on fire and the barns burn
,ed down. Then Evans' house was set
| on fire, but the flames were extinguished.
| One of Moss' sons, while at work in the
| woods, was shot at, the bullet knocking
| his hat off. Three nights ago Evans'
house was again fired and totally de
sWoyed with all its contents. Since then
I Evans has been hanging around the Moss
house with a Winchester rifle, vowing to
j shoot the first member of the family he
I sees.
Weekly Coal Iteport.
The situation of the anthracite cosl
, trade has not changed materially (luring
! the past week, The local line and city
trade continues quite active, the demand
for the domestic sizes from that quarter
being fully equal to the production of
coal. Many of the anthracite operators
report having already orders booked to
take up the entire output of their col
; lienes for this month, and some of them
are declining to accept additional con
tracts excepting subject to any further
advance in prices that may be made to
take effect next month. There has been
a diminution in the number of orders for
i coal received within the past week part
! ly because of the large number previously
! placed for delivery this month and also
on account of the warmer weather. The
prices for anthracite to the local trade
are being very firmly maintained, but
there is reported to be aopie slight shad
ing from the 'full circular for Eastern
shipments, which are not very active.
From the West there is reported a good
demand for chestnut and stove coal but
the continued scarcity of rolling s'tock
prevents satisfactory shipments. Re.
contly there has been an improvement in
the demand for the small steam sizes.
The total amount of anthraoite coal
sent to market for the week ending
October 4, as reported by the several
carrying companies, was 839,782 tons
compared with 831,192 tons in the corres
ponding week last year, an increase of
8 590 tons. The total amount of an
j thracite mined thus far in the year 1890
| was 25,810,883 tons com pared with 20,207,-
220 tons for the same period last year, a
I decrease of 450,33/ tons.— Ledger,
