ing. After the entertainment a ball will |
be held, Depierro's Orchestra having;
been engaged for the occasion.
—Candidates for the township and

known through its columns at a trifling
expense.
—Michael Zemany offers for sale—
cither public or private—the farm owned
by him in Butler township; also the per
sonal property thereon, together with
the implements used on the farm. The j
sale will take place on Wednesday and 1
Thursday, the 10th and 11th of Decem
ber, 1890. This is a good chance for
some person to secure a fine home.

their little walk around on Saturday
evening in honor of the victory gained
by them on Tuesday. The procession
started from the Lehigh Valley depot.,
led by a Drum Corps, and paraded up

A (iood Day's Hunt.
Councilman Bachman made a visit to
liis home in Northampton county last
week for the purpose of settling up the
estate of his father, who died some time
ago, and while there he took the oppor
tunity of indulging in a day's hunt and
shot twenty rabbits, all of which, with
the exception of one, were raised on ,
Democratic soil. The lonely one was
shot in a Republican township and was
thin and shaggy.
(iono to Went Virginia.
Amoa Burger, who for the past twent.v
flve years haa been employed by Keek
and Tattershnll, merchants of White
Haven, leit on Tuesday for West Vir
ginia, where he will engage in the lum
bering business with his brother. Mr. :
Burger was a well-known character in
White Haven and was well known to
the old residents of Foster township.
Suit fur Damages.
Cormic Poran filed a suit in the I'ro
thonotary's office, Wilkes-Barre, Mon
day, which is singular in its nature.
Doran in his affidavit states that lie was
burned by an explosion of gas in the ;
Smith shaft of the llillman Vein Goal
Co. He engaged Ann O'llara to treat
the burns, she guaranteeing a cure for
$17.75, which Doran says was paid.
Doran said she failed to fulfill her prom
ise, and did the work in such a bungling
manner that he was obliged to call in
other physicians to cure him. He suf
fered greatly and lost much time in con
sequence. lie thinks, however, that a
verdict of $2,000 damages will he suffi
cient to cover the loss.
District Assembly 10 in Session.
A two days' session of Dis't Assembly
16, comprising delegates from five cionn
tieselosedatOlyphantyesterday. Gener
al Master Workman I'owderly, Deputy
Master Workman Campbell were ap
pointed a committee to visit Harrishurg
the first week that the Legislature meets
and attenil a meeting to he held in the 1
interest of ballot reform. A resolution
was also adopted urging the appointment
of more mine inspectors, on the ground
that the present inspection districts are
too large.
As also was another requesting the
mine corporations of the Lackawanna
and Wyomine regions to reduce the
price of powder to the basis adopted by
the operators in the Schuylkill and Le
high region.
—At l'ort Royal, Sunday morning, a
stock train crashed through ami wrecked
the signal tower. George Longacre,
fireman, was killed
A SiM-cessful Opening.
The entertainment given under the
auspices of the St. Ann's T. A. 11.
Pioneer Corps at the opera house, on
Sunday evening, was one of the largest
: and best ever held within its wall. Over
one thousand people were present, and
many were forced to stay out for want of
room. It was intended that the enter
| tainment should be held in their rooms
in the brick building, but so many had
I shown a disposition to be present, that it
j was deemed best to hold it in the opera
house.
At 7.45 p. m. T). J. McCarthy called
, the assemblage to order, and in a neat
speech stated the object of the meeting,
, which was to inaugurate for the St. Ann's
■ Pioneer Corps a new departure by sup
plying them with a library and a reading
j room, wherein they could meet nightly
and improve themselves. He closed his
I address by giving all present a welcome
to visit the hall at any time that it is
opened for business.
The St. Patrick's Cornet Band then
rendered a selection of music.
A class of school children from St.
Ann's school sang "Spring Time's
Around."
Andrew J. McNulty rendered an ora
tion and dwelt at length upon the duties
of man to himself in all his undertakings,
and advised all present that whatever
they undertook to do. whether as boy
or man, to strive to do it well, ending
with "whatever may be your occupation
in life always be a man."
Miss Maggie Lawlor gave a recitation,
which was loudly applauded.
Rev. M. J. Fallinee was then intro
duced, and in his usual happy style
complimented the Corps upon the result
of their perseverance, and closed by pre
dicting for them a long term of useful- j
news in the cause they were engaged in.
John B. Quigley, Misses Mary Mellon \
j and Annie Quigley sang a trio and re- ;
! ceived great praise.
James A. O'Donnell gave a recitation, i
Miss Annie Dever recited "Harry's ■
Christmas," and at the conclusion was '
loudly applauded.
Thomas A. Buckley made a few re- i
marks on the status of the society, show
ing that they were not only a semi
military association but also a' beneficial
society, and quoted figures for the past I
year to prove it.
The funny part came in next, when i
four little school boys stood upon the ■
stage and told what they would like to be.
Miss Aggie Riley rendered a solo and
was heartily applauded.
MissCassie Furey recited the "Polish
Boy" and received great applause at its
finish.
The class of school children then gave 1
another exhibition of fine singing.
Uov. F. P. McXally, the orator of the j
evening, was then introduced, and de-!
livered one of the most effective lectures
ever listened to in this part of the
country. He complimented the young
men or St. Ann's parish for the stand
they are taking in trying to educate
themselves.
During his lecture he gave many in- j
stances that came under his observation
of young men, who, from the crude |
backwood villages, became learned men
through their own perseverance. He j
closed by advising all the young men to
go on as they have begun, and to take
Excelsior for their motto, and success |
would crown their effort.
The St. Patrick's Cornet Band closed .
the entertainment by rendering a selec- !
tion of music in their own easy and i
graceful style.
An admission fee of ten cents was !
charged at the door, and the proceeds, j
after deducting expenses, was $79.00, !
which was turned over towards the sup- ;
port of the Sisters' school.
Convention of County Commissioners.
At yesterday's session of the conven- I
tion of the County Commissioners of the !
state at Williamsport the hill prepared
by the Tax Commission was discussed in
detail by sections. Giles D. Price, of
Erie, a member of the Commission, by
request, explained the measure. Reso
lutions were adopted in favor of the |
following legislative measures : Abolish
ing the office of Jury Commissioner and
requiring County Commissioners to per
form the duties now belonging to Jury j
Commissioners ; an act to refund to the j
counties the expenses of holding the !
election of June 18, 1889; refunding to j
counties yearly expenses incurred in"ob-1
taining from township, borough and city i
authorities, the necessary statistics for
making out the tax returns as per act of 1
1889; an act making cities and boroughs |
committing persons to jail for violating
an ordinance pay their expenses; an act
com pelting constables of wards, boroughs !
and townships to make returns to Justices
of the Peace instead of to the Court; an
act to extend to cities of the third class j
the law of 1885, allowing rebate of 5 per j
cent, on State and county tax.
A resolution offered by <i. B. Cowan, !
of Blair county, was adopted, commend
ing the bill drawn by the Memorial Com
mittee, and presented to the Convention
at the Harrishurg meeting, as tlie best !
presentation of tax revision and equali- !
zation needed in this Commonwealth,
but accepting the bill submitted by the
Tax Commission as a compromise mea- i
sure as the best to be obtained at this j
time.
A Queon Among Woman.
The queen of Greece is said to be the
finest looking queen in Europe. She
is the eldest daughter of Grand Duke
Constantino of Russia, brother of
Alexander 11. She is tall and stately,
and looks like a queen. She is a blonde,
with brown hair, regular features, and
with beautiful neek and shoulders. She
dresses very simply except on state oc
casions. and often goes about Athens I
without even a maid with her. The
queen is a woman of culture, and sneaks
Russian, Italian. German,French,Greek
and English perfectly well, and she is
now studying Albanian.
The king and the queen have been !
blessed with seven children, and the
youngest is a baby about a year old.
Prince Andreas is seven, and the
Princess Maria, who is a very bright
blonde, is thirteen. Next comes the
Princess Alexandra, a very pretty girl I
of nineteen, and then Prince George,
who is twentv, and last and most im
portant of all the crown prince. Kon
stantinos, the heir apparent who was
born Aug. 2. 1868, and who was at
eighteen declared heir apparent to the
throne. All these children, save the
year-old baby, speak French, English,
Greek and Russian, and the home life
j is said to be charming.
FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1890.
Who Can Tell ?
We are in receipt of a letter from a
gentleman residing near White Haven,
asking us if the old school house, that
stands between the Weatherly and Free
land roads, at Morrisons, belongs to the
Foster Township School Board ? Also,
that a certain gentleman, living near the
i building in question, was engaged in
tearing it down.
The fact that the building has not been
used as a school house for some time
past, does not go to show that it is not
I still the property of the school Board,
j In answer we would state that the
I members of Foster* Township School
Board are engaged in collecting statistics
as to how many lots they own, and
where these lots are located. Our own
knowledge, coyering a period of six
years as a member of the Board, does
! not warrant us in saying whether the
I Board own the huiliding or not. The
records of the Board gives no mention
of it from 18(58 to the present time,
j Can any ot our readers tell anything
j about it ?
The Ticket Was Not Itogus.
AVe are requested by one of the gentle
men who attended the South Heherton
poll to state the following facta in con
nection with the charge made that
there were bogus tickets peddled there.
The ticket was taken out of the box
without any knowledge on their part
that it was not correct; hut on examina
tion it was found to contain no county
slip, but hail two state slips and one
judiciary. If a mistake was made it
was made at Wilkes-Barre and not by
the poll men, as they gave them out as
they took them from the box. There
was no intention to do wrong to any per
son by them, and they regret that they
should be deemed guilty of wrongdoing.
Card of Than Us.
The St. Ann's T. A. B. Pioneer Corps
return their sincere thanks to all who in
any way contributed to make their en
tertainment on Sunday evening such a
grand success. They also return thanks
to the people of Freeland and vicinity,
who, by their presence on that occasion,
showed the esteem in which the Corps
is held by the public, and they hope to
merit such approval in the future.
They expect to receive a consignment
of books the coming week, and will re
ceive contributions of hooks and reading
matter from those who may feel dis
posed to contribute.

tion from Democratic headquarters at I
Philadelphia, that the members of the
State Committee are elated over the
work done in the coal regions, Carbon,
Luzerne, Lackawanna, Schuylkill and
Northumberland atone giving a majority
of 11,440.
Will lie Mnrrieil Moon.
The Nanticoke Daily Ntu is authority
for the statement that Treasurer-elect
.lohn 8. McGroarty w ill he married on
the 18th inst. to Miss Ida Lubrecht,
formerly of Freeland, hut now of Wilkes-
Barre.
The TRIBUNE voices the sentiment of
the people of Freeland and Foster town
ship in congratulating Mr. McGroarty
upon the termination of a hard fought
battle, and hope that he may live long to
enjoy the noble prize he hits won.
Weekly Coal Kepurf.
The anthracite coal trade is not in
satisfactory condition, and the continued
mild weather has had a decidedly de
pressing effect on the market for the
domestic sizes. New orders for coal, ex
cepting for small quantities, are scarce,
and even those are accepted at prices
below the circular figures by many of the
individual opi r.itors, and it is reported
that some of the larger mining corpora
tions are not permitting orders to leave
their offices if some concession in price
will secure them. Many of the retail
dealers tiave their yards well stocked |
with coal, and, having filled the bins of j
their regular customers with sufficient
coal to last for the month or two, are now ]
dependent largely for sales upon the one
ton business, which is not active on ac
count of the mild weather. At New
York buyers of anthracite go shopping
for coal, and the lowest bidder gets the
order. The average cut in the prices
for stove and broken there is about
40 cents per ton, and even this large
concession from the circular quota
tions fails to induce purchasers to take
any mote coal than their immediate re
quirements necessitate. In fact, the an
thracite business has again fallen into
such a state that nothing but protracted
cold weather is likely to stimulate it
very much. The demand for hard
coal from the West continues good, ;
tint the mining and carrying companies !
are reported to be monopolizing that i
trade, the smaller individual operators
being unable to get cars to ship their
coal. The weekly output of anthracite
continues large, notwithstandingtiie dull :
condition of the trade, and while a large
part of the production is being forward
ed from the mines directly to market on j
old contracts taken at low prices early in j
the season, yet there is a considerable
quantity of coal being stocked at in- j
terior points and tidewater.
The total amount of anthracite coal i
sent to market for the week ending I
November 1, as reported by tiie several i
carrying companies, was 850,304 tons,
compared with 842,525 tons in the corres
ponding week last year, an increase of
7,779 tons. The total amount of an
thracite mined thus far in the year 1890
was 29,235,25 > tons com pared with 29,582-,
851 tons for the same period last year, a
decrease of 347,590 tons.— Ledger.
