David Clarke. A large number of applications for positions in the hospital were received, hut no ap pointments were made, the trustees pre ferring to view the Ashland Hospital and siiuiliar institutions before making any appointments. Killed Instantly in the Mines. Patrick Moy, 16 years old, employed at the Green Mountain Colliery of Coxe I Bros. & Co.. met his death instantly while sit work on Saturday. The boy was ('ngaged as a driver, and while driving his mule up a heavy grade was struck by an empty car, which, through the fault of someone yet unknown, had been allowed to come rushing down the track in an opposite direction. The car, ! on its race down the incline, had attained a terrific speed, having started almost at the face of the gangway, and the grade lof the road was one degree. About | seventy-five yards below where the car , started there was a buinping-block, phi cod to prevent just such sin accident as this, hut the velocity of the car was so great that it broke through this obstacle and continued onward until it met the boy and mule, killing the former and seriously injured the latter. 1 i After the accident an examination of j the car was made, resulting in the dis covery of four spragk, one in each wheel, j placed there, after the collision, no j doubt by the party whose negligence caused the boy's death. The attempt to escape suspicion of neglect by this means did not succeed, and the Inspector of the district sit once ordered a thorough in vestigation. The hoy was a son of Mrs. James Logan, of Green Mountain and up to two weeks ago had worked in Drifton. The remains arrived here on Monday afternoon in charge of Undertaker Bris -1 in, and the interment was made in St. Ann's cemetery. The funeral was ' largely attended. To Celebrate New Year's Day. Freeland Council, No. 348, Junior Order United American Mechanics, will celebrate to-day by a parade through the principal streets of the town.

The fair at the above church opened on Christmas Day under the most auspicious conditions. The large tables are loaded down with hundredsof hand- 1 some and valuable articles, many of them having been presented to the fair by members of the congregation and the societies connected with this church, j Every evening since its opening the i building has been crowded with a merry and jovial lot of people, and there is no better place at present to spend a pleas ant hour. Several *f the articles on ex hibition are to he disposed of by contests, and dozens of pretty girls with neat little ! hooks vie with one another in their plead ings to induce the visitors to part with a portion of their small change. The more j valuable articles are going off on chances, which gives to all investors an equal op portunity to win something of value for a small amount of money. The fair will remain open for some time. Shutting Down on Free Full's. The Editorial Association of the Le high Valley at a recent meeting came to : the conclusion that they were doing more 1 for the public than the public was doing j for them, and decided hereafter to abolish the lavish distribution of free i puffs, tln? insertion of marriage and death notices free and the printing of; any resolution of any character and any I length merely for the asking. Many people seem to think that the labor of i type-setting, printing, proof-reading and ! distributing, not to mention the expense of paper and printer's ink, and the enormous wear and tear of a newspaper plant, is just nothing at all, and every-; t It ing is pure profit. Marriage Licenses Granted. The Register of Wills granted the fol- j lowing licenses during the past week : M. F. (1 rover, of Freeland, to Miss Ilattie A. Tuhhs, of Shickshitmy.

FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, JANUARY 1, 1891. Three Persons Brutally Murdered. A horrible and cold-blooded murder of • three persons took place on Monday at Broderick's Patch, a small village near Wilkes-Barre. The details of the crime are revolting to the extreme. Itappears ; that "John Tirello, a Hungarian from Fdgerton, who had been in the village for a few days, entered the saloon of ■ Michael Curley, and in the presence of the latter's five-year-old daughter, Mamie, who was holding an infant, shot Mrs. Curley, who was working at the wash-tub in the front part of the bar room, and then shot Curley, who had just came down stairs. Tirello next turned and shot a man named Michael Hoilok, a Hungarian, who died instantly, and then, laying the revolver upon the prostrate form of Curley, decamped for parts unknown. The shot entered Mrs. Curley's head from the back and she died instantly. Curley was shot through the forehead and lived two hours. There were apparently only five persons in the room at the tune of the shooting, Curley, his wife, Hodok, Tirello and the little girl. The first three are dead, and the child is too young to make an in telligible statement. The theory that Tirello did the shoot ing is most reasonable, but there are a few persons who hold that Curley shot Hodok in an altercation, and Tirello, who was implicated, did the rest of the shooting. TIRELLO ARRESTED. Tirello was arrested at Jermyn Tues-, I day and brought to Wilkes-Barre, ar riving there at about 3 o'clock. In per sonal appearance he is a bad looking specimen of the riotous Hun. lie was 1 very poorly and unkemptly clad, and bore the general appearance of one who would not hesitate to take a hand in the darkest of deeds. He was apprehended by James Timlin, a saloon keeper in Jermyn, and detained there till County Detective Philij s made the arrest. CURLEY ACCUSED. The stories told about the sad occur rence are very conflicting. The prisoner himself tells a very straightforward story, in which he accuses Curley of do ing all the shooting. The Pittston (fatette gives the following account as told by Mat Daley, a driver in the employ of Hughes' brewery: Daley, who is prepared to take an oath that what he says is true, was delivering s< me beer to a customer on the opposite side of the road from the saloon where the tragedy occurred. He heard several shots fired, and looking across the road lie saw the Hungarian Tirello run out | the door and down through the fields. A moment or two afterward Mrs. Curley • came running to the door, and was just on the step leading to a small porch when ! her husband came up from behind with a pistol, which he held up to the hack of her head. Mrs. Curley fell to the flooi, and the husband re-entered the house. A few moments after Daley who had by this time ran to the place, heard another shot fired inside. In company with 1 others lie entered the saloon and found J Curley lying on the floor with the bulkt wound in his head, through which the brains were protruding. Near by the Hun, Hodok, was lying on the floor, With a bullet wound in his head also. The revolver was found hanging to a button on Curley' H breast. This is the story that Daley is prepared to swear to and he says that another witness will corroborate him in what lie says. Expert Hunters. Three of Eekley's famous hunters a few weeks ago, while wending their way ( below Old Buckmountain, were startled by a strange looking animal, and one of the party fireo and killed it. Upon ex- ! animation it proved to be a tame cat. The same party a few days ago were traversing the same ground and looking out for some game, when they espied a j fine looking catamount and killed it. I The person who killed the cat the week previous, thinking that a mistake had been made this time, called to bis coni i panions, asking "if it was as big as the one he shot," when the answer came back, "yes, twice as big." It is not safe to talk catamount to him now. Don't Go Hunting After To-Day. ; Ten dollars reward will be paid by the Freeland Game and Fisli Protective Club to any person giving information ; that will lead to the arrest and convic tion of any person or persons killing, or ; having in his or her possession, after i being killed, any hare or rabbit or any other game, after December 31, 1890, or any time before Nobetnber 1, 1891. Ten dollars will also be paid for information that will lead to the conviction of any | person or persons who have used a ferret in killing rabbits during the past season. Mercantile Appraiser Appointed. I The County Commissioners held a I meeting Saturday afternoon and ap pointed Thomas MeGraw, of Beach Haven, as mercantile appraiser for 1891. The appointment of .Mr. MeGraw meets I with general approval throughout the county, and the Commissioners are en titled to commendation for their tlumght -1 fulness in recognizing th,e defeated candidate. The papers in which the appraiser's list is to lie published are the Xeirs-DeaUr, Shirkshinnv AWi and the Democratic Wucchter, of VViikes-Barre. Hull* at (lie Opera House.

The application was opposed by counsel ' for some of the members, who said that the money for which the mortgage was j wanted had been expended by the pas- j ; tor, Father Janauskasewisez, without j authority. This matter is a remnant of the somewhat sensational quarrel which I took place in that congregation some ! time ago. Weekly Coal Report. The anthracite coal trade lias been stimulated by the cold weather of the past week, and the consumption of fuel lias increased considerably. There is noted an improved inquiry for the do mestic sizes as well as for the small steam sizes, pea and buckwheat coal being in much better demand on account of the scarcity of bituminous coal. The iron manufacturers continue to absorb all of i the furnace coal that is being manufac tured, and they are compelled to accept some broken size to make up their or ders. There will be fewer unfilled orders for anthracite cancelled at the end of this week than there have been for some time past, and the requests of the dealers and large consumers are now more urgent for the fulfillment of their contracts. The local line and city retail trade is quite active, and dealers are busily engaged iti supplying the necessi ties of their customers. The total amount of anthracite coal sent to market for the week ending December 29, as reported by the several carrying companies, was 728,797 tons, compared with 664,877 tons in the corres ponding week last year, an increase of 68,889 tons. The total amount of an thracite mined thus far in the year 1890 was 84,930,324 tons compared with 34,723,- 374 tons for the same period last year, an increase of 296,959 tons. — Ledqer. ,\ Ilol'SETn KENT ON WA LN UT STREET, l\ containing i' rooms, with stable on rear of lot.
