challtme any man in Luzerne county
(Mike Beatty excepted) to fight for a

A. A. FERRY,
Upper Lehigh.
Appointed by tlio Governor.
Governor Beaver yesterday made the
following appointments: Managers of
the State Hospital at Hazleton —James
E. Roderick, John Markie, David Clark,
Anthony Reillv, William R. Longshore,
all of Hazleton; Eckley B. Coxe, of

Hoi linger, of Lansford.
SticceKKful Hunter*.
As the 9.15 train on the L. V. R. R.
pulled into the depot Saturday morning
those on the platfoim were given an op
portunity of witnessing a sight rarely
seen now-a-day in this vicinity, namely,
five large deers, which the Baggage
master handled as if they were
children as lie deposited them on the
platform. Upon examining the tags
which were attached to them the dis
covery was made that they belonged to
our'two townsmen Councilman Bachman
and Charles Dusheck, who. for twelve
davs previous, had been on a hunting
expedition through Davis county, West
Virginia. Later in the day the two
gentlemen arrived, and, for some time af
ter. were the recipients of congratulati na
from their numerous friends. Messrs.
Bachman and Dusheck are proud of their
trophies and speak highly of the treat
ment they received from the people, in
whose vicinity they spent such a pleas
ant and enjoyable time. For a number
of days they were completely buried in
the forest; so dense was it that even the
horses had to be abandoned for a time,
Under New Management.
The opera-going people of Freeland
. and surrounding towns will be glad to
know that the management of the Free
land opera house has at last been placed
i in the hands of men who are in sym- 1
pat by with the wants of the public.
For some time past the attendance at the ,
shows exhibited here has been falling
off, the reason for such we are unable to
say. We have been assured by Messrs.
Fowler and Boyle, the present lessees,
that nothing of an objectionable charac
ter will he brought here, nor will en
gagements he made with any troupe who
does not bring first-class recommenda
tions. They assure the TRIBUNE that it is
at liberty to criticise any and all shows 1
brought here, and also will be pleased to
hear any complaints or suggestions from
i the patrons of the house in order that j
! they may guard themselves against any ;
snide shows that may come around, and I
also be better prepared to cater to their j
wants. We bespeak for the lessees a
prosperous career. They are personally
acquainted with all the people of this j
I section and nothing that the TRIBUNE
j could say in their behalf could help
j them.

A Cave-In.
The residents of Hazleton Mines and

1 of excitement early Thursday afternoon
by a cave-in just west of the borough j
line. The surface under the plank
walk (between the two boroughs) for a!
distance of nearly one hundred feet set- j
tied to a depth of about eight feet, and
continued to extend gradually toward

The Columbia Cycle Calendar.
| By far the most valuable business cal
endar for 1891, and entirely unique in
design, is the Columbia Cycle Calendar
and Stand, issued by the Pope Mfg. Co.,
of Boston, Mass. The Calendar is in
the form of a pad containing 366 leaves,
each 54x2} inches, one for each day of
the year, to be torn of daily, and one
for the entire year. At the lower end of
each leaf is a blank for memoranda, and
DB the leaves are only fastened at the
up| er end, any leaf can be exposed. No
stub is left when the leaves are torn off.
Ihe pad rests upon a stand, containing
pen rack and pencil holder, and when
placed upon the desk the entire surface
of the date leaf is brought directly and
kept constantly before the eye, making
it impossible to overlook date or mem
oranda. The stand is made of stained
! wood, mounted with raised letters in
brass, thus forming anomamental paper
1 weight.
The Methodist Wowen Carry tlie Hay.
The question: ''Shall women he ad
. niitted to the General Conference as lay
delegates?" has been submitted to the
congregations of all the Methodist
Churches in the United States, and the
members of each were allowed to vote
upon it. The voting was done during
the months of October and November,
mainly in the latter month. Results
from the churches throughout the coun
i try are not all in yet, but the Philadel
phia Methodist says that enough returns
have been received to show that the
women have carried the day, and so far
i as the popular will goes they are entitled
j | to seats in the General Conference as
| lay delegates.
FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1890.
Copper at Kvan*' Fall*.
A visit to Evans' Falls last week found
tlie quiet inhabitants of that place some
what excited by the finding of copper on
the farms along Bowman's Creek. Many
' years since, an Englishman named Bren
| ton found copper, as he supposed it to he,
! on what has ever since been called Cop
; per Mine Hill. lie was sure there was
copper there and he dug a deep hole by
the roadside, but failed to interest men
| with means to form a company and he
gave it up. Some time ago Jackson, who
I then owned the farm, found rocks purple |
with copper and sent it away to an es-1
sayist to he tested. It was pronounced >
copper, but not in paying quantities.
The Jackson farm was sold at sheriff
sale and bid in by neighbors who went
to work and blasted rocks and found any j
amount of copper. The rock was takeii
to a blacksmith shop and melted. Pure
copper bright as gold melted with it and 1
something that looked like silver. Major j
R. 11. Evans has hundreds of acres of
land and he proposes to know at once '
what the copper amounts to. Old miners
who have worked in copper mines con
sider it exceptionally rich and if so
Evans' Falls will soon be a busy place.— i
Neicsdealer.
A Good Company.
On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
evenings the Justin Adams Dramatic;
Company played under the auspices of I
the Young Men's T. A. B. Society, of
Freeland, at the opera house. The
weather against them, the attendance :
was above the average each night. Those
who braved the elements last night to '
attend were well repaid for their trouble.
The members of the company are all I
first-class artises, and they leave Free
land with the assurance that their parts
were well rendered and everything was
done as promised.
Fair and Festival.
A fair and festival for the benefit of
the Welsh Baptist Church, of Woodside,
will he held at Donop's Hall, Freeland,
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Sat
urday, January 14, 15, 16 and 17, 1891.
Refreshments will he served to ticket- \
holders, and they can take supper or
oysters. Tickets are 25 cents each.
Of InteroHt to Old Soldiers.
Hon. E. M. Mulhearn has in his pos
session a number of soldiers' discharge
papers, which were given to him by E.
C. Dimmick, Esq., formerly a pensions
claim agent of Mauch Chunk. The
papers were left with the pension attor
ney by old soldiers, and were never re- (
claimed. Mr. Mulhearn is anxious to
return the discharges to their owners or
their heirs, but is unable to do so on ac
count of not knowing their addresses.
He has prepared the following list, and
desires persons knowing the whereabouts
of the owners of the papers to communi
cate with them :

; Run, and has been prosecuting his claim |
I for a pension for the past three years.
11 is case is now before the department
for final action. If Mr. Anthony had
known where his discharge was in years
gone by, he would have had his pension
granted long ago. However, a duplicate
has been granted him ano his case may
he adjusted at any time. Mr. Mulhearn,
in publishing these names, is doing an
act of justice to old soldiers.
Weekly Coal Report.
|
The anthracite coal trade has im
| proved somewhat during the past week,
j The demand for the domestic sizes is bet- !
! ter, owing to the increased consumption
of coal incidental to the continued cold
weather. Shippers have been for seve
ral days past in receipt of numerous
small orders fur egg, stove and chestnut
from the line and city trade, but the
Eastern and Western trade do not show
much change. Locally the prices fur an
thracite are firmer, but at New York
harbor there is reported to be much com
petition for business, and, in conse
quence, prices there are weaker. The
ruling net price for stove coal at New
York f. o. 1). is #4 per ton or a trifle less,
j The collieries throughout the entire an
! thracite region are now nearly all work
; ingon three-quarters time.
I The total amount of anthracite coal
sent to market for the week ending
December (>, as reported by the several
carrying companies, was 687,354 tons,
compared with 666,676 tons in the corres
| ponding week last year, an increase of
! 10,678 tons. The total amount of an
| thracite mined thus far in the year 1890
| wa533,497,423 tonscom pared with 33,338,-
652 tons for the same period last year, an
! increase of 158,761 tons. — Ledqer.
