laiiilse Arnot I.ast Night.
There are tew of the standard dramas
•which as are exacting on the characters
embraced in them as that of I.eah,
the Forsaken." It is essentially an
emotional play, anil deeply tragic 111
all its situations. The two leading
characters require the highest type of
acting to make them acceptable. The
Louise Arnot Company presented it
last night with most gratifying success.
Miss Arnot, as Leah, met every de
mand of the play. In some parts she
was exceptionally strong. 111 the curse
scene this was particularly the case, and
that her acting was appreciated was
proved by the fact that she was called
before the curtain, after it.— Hurrithiiri)

Murder al llollynood.
On Sunday evening last the quiet little
inining village of Hollywood was thrown
into a state of excitement by the murder
of a Hungarian named Paul Knher. '
II is assailant's name is Nicholas Shutach,
aged about .">5 years, a married man ami \
the father of three small children. The
I murdered man was also married, being j
(•only married about six months. As soon
as the stabbing was done Shutach ran
away. A search was instituted and he
: was found after breaking into a stable,
| where lie bad a horse belonging to an-
I other Hungarian already harnessed pre
! paratory to taking flight. lie was brought j
back to t lie house of bis victim, and from j
there taken to Hazleton, where he was
placed in the lockup for safe keeping, !
■ to await the result of the Coroner's in- j
j quest. Early Monday morning Deputy j
: Coroner Buckley, of Freeland, was noti- j
! lied and went immediately to Hollywood j
i and empanelled a jury, which viewed j
j the body of the murdered man and took j
I the testimony of those who were present
I when the stabbing took place. The facts
; brought out at the inquest went to show i
j that a number of the Hungarians were,
j drinking, when a quarrel arose between ;
Shutach ami Kuher about the use of a,
j certain outhouse which Kuher had lock
ed, claiming that he was ordered to lock j
' it so as to preventShutach's family from J
j using it. After hearing this from Kuher, j
; Shutach told him it would be the last
■ one he would lock, as he intended to
j kill him. He then struck him three |
i blows with some sharp instrument, two j
j of which were struck in the breast near j
! the right side of the neck and one on
: the forehead,
I The Jury rendered the following ver- .
diet: That Paul Kuher came to his death
:at Hollywood in the County of Luzerne
| and State of Pennsylvania on the evfen
; ingof January 25th, 1891, and that said
! death resulted from violence committed
| by the hands of Nicholas Shutach.
I After the verdict was rendered and
I signed by the jury Deputy Coroner
I Buckley proceeded to Hazleton and went
: before Squire Laubach and swore out a
warrant for the arrest of Shutach on the
( barge of murder. The prisoner was
! then brought from the lockup, where he
i was confined, and given a hearing and
committed to the county jail to await the j
action of the grand jury. Constable j
| George Creasing, of Hazleton, on Tues
j day took the prisoner to Wilkes-Barre.
Poor District Convention.
The Democratic conferees of the Mid
dle Coal Field Poor District met at
Mauch Chunk yerterday afternoon for ;
the purpose of placing in nomination !
candidates for Poor Director and Auditor. ;
The Hazleton District was represented
1 bv six conferees; Weatberly District by j
live, and Mauch Chunk District by five. !
I ionorable Michael Cussidy was elected
Chairman; L. G. Lubrecht and J. C. i
Weigand were elected Secretaries.
Before proceeding to ballot for nomi
nees for Poor Director and Auditor, Mr.
Ranch was accorded the privilege of the
| floor and stated that he had appointed
a committee on rules to report at this
convention, hut that they had not done
anything, and that the convention should
work this time under the old ruks A
general discussion then took place as to ;
the best mode of electing delegates, as
the rules of the two counties conflict; and
• the feeling of all present was to simplify
the manner of making nominations. In
order that some system may bo adopted j
suitable to Luzerne as well as Car
bon, a committee of seven were appoint
ed to meet and draw up rules and report j
at the next convention.
I The following are the names of the
'committee: Hon. Michael Cussidy, j
Mauch Chunk; Thomas A. Buckley.
Freeland; J. C. Weigand, Hazleton; K.
P. Williams, Weatberly; P. J. Kelly, \

and E. 11. Ranch, Mauch Chunk.
John A. Quitin, of Lansford, presented
the name of A. M. Neumillor, of Lans
ford, for Poor D'rector and he was nomi
nated unanimously; James North, of
Foster Township, presented the name of
John J. McNelis, of Drifton, for Auditor
and he was nominated unanimously.
An Executive Committee was then
appointed, composed of the following

FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, JANUARY 29, 1891.
Free Delivery for Hiiinll Towns.
Postmaster General Wanamaker lias
interested himself in the improvement
of a more rapid system of mail delivery
in those towns which yet have not the
required number of inhabitants to en
l title them to the advantages of the free
: delivery system. With this end in view'
I lie has directed Major Pollock, the Super
intendent of the Free Delivery Service,
to establish what is called the experi
mental free delivery ill a number of
small towns throughout the country.
Two of those are located in Pennsyl
vania—Terra Hill and Jenkintown. The
I latter is a village of probably 1,200 in
! habitants and is situated in Montgomery
! County.
i The success of this experiment will be
: watched with an unusual amount of in
i terest by the business men and public of
! the remaining small towns of the State,
1 and should this feature of the postal
i service prove practicable Freeland will
soon enjoy all the advantages derived
1 from free delivery.
The idea of the Department is to try
j the feasibility of free delivery in these
towns, and, if possible, to make a nearer
approach to the system in vogue in Eng- I
j land, where every letter that is mailed j
is delivered by the postman. Of course j
i the density of England's population '
, makes this service more practicable than j
j it would be this side of the water —still j
there are many small towns in the East
j where the demand is pressing for more ,
! adequate postal facilities.
The mail will be collected from the
j boxes to be provided, and incoming mail |
I will he delivered at the house once or i
twice a day, as the needs of the citizens i
j require. The expense of this experi
! inent will be borne by the general ap- |
j appropriation for tlie free delivery, and ;
will be continued for a sufficient length
| of time to furnish statistics as to the cost 1
of the service and whether it is practi- 1
cable and desirable. If the data ob- 1
tained warrants the change the Post
master General will ask Congress for an
appropriation to cover this extension of 1
the service. At present the law limits
the service to post offices located in towns
having not less than 19,000 inhabitants, ,
j or where the receipts are not less than
*IO,OOO.
I One of the greatest advantages to the
i community resulting from the extension
I of the free delivery system resides in the
fact that collections of mail, as well as !
deliveries, can he made at every house,
and the use of the post is likely to in
crease wonderfully.

It will be a long time before the border
drama loses its fascination for a great
majority of theatre-goers. We do not
apeak of the wild, Wild Western species
where the height of the hero's ambition
is to slay an unsuspected red man or an
nihilate a greaser with fringes on his
pantaloons, but of that class of mel- j
I odrama of which "49" is so excellent a I
type At all events, the crowded house !
that greeted Miss Arnot's company at i
the Opera House last evening seems to j
point to the fact that the Western drama -
still retains its hold in Pittsburg. The
romping, good-natured waif Carrots had
and admirable exponent in Miss Arnot, ;
and her singing and dancing and clever \
i acting were the life of the piece although
she was supported by an excellent com- 1
pan'v.— Pitt*!>urg Dispatch.

Of the many valuuble improvements which 1
have been made in self-fcctiing pens a great
part are due to the skill and iiersistence of Mr. j
L. 13. Dunlap, of Hoston, who, as a pioneer in
this business.hns spent (lie last decade in perfect- >
in# tlie fountain pen that bears his name. The j
latest perfected invention is the llunlap Double- J

l servedly popular among writers who want a
pen that will invariably write when its point is
touched to paper. This pen is a perfect-pocket -
companion that will not only prove Indisix-nsi
ble. but a joy and blessing as long as life lasts.
It is guaranteed to write instantly, always and
under all circumstances. To introduce it among

offer tor a short time only to send it by return
mail at one-half the regular price.

Weekly Coal Report.
The anthracite coal trade in dull, and
the demand for the domestic sizes haw !
j decreased materially during tlie past
' week, in consequence of the warmer !
weather. The pressing demand for the i
■ small steam sizes has also abated since !
i the announcement was made that a com- 1
promise lias been effected with tlie hitti- |
minous coal miners which will avert a j
strike in the Clearfield region. The out
i put of anthracite, however, continues
much in excess of the present market I
requirements, and consequently the
prices for that kind of fuel have weak
i ened. An active demand for anthracite
from the middle of February until about
April Ist has been confidently expected
by many operators, bat it is feared by
some that if the production of coal con
tinues as large as it has been since the
j of the new year the result
will be a depressed market and a further
cut in prices. The output of anthracite
thus far this year is nearly three hundred
and forty thousand tons in excess of that
for last year to tho corresponding date.
The consumption of coal, however, from
November last to date has been much
greater than it was in the same period of
! 1889-90, and consequently there is less
coal act umulated at tidewater shippihg
points; hut this is offset to some extent
:! by the stocking of coal in the mining
regions. Mining operations will likely
he interfered with this week by the fresh
ets in the Wilkes-Hurreregion. At New
f York harbor the/mthracit4Ptrade is re
( ported without jfnap, the demand being
slack and priqes weak, good stove coal
selling there (luring the past week at
$4.0 @4.10 alongside docks.
r j The total amount of anthracite coal
; j sent to market for the week ending
January 17, as reported by the several
carrying companies, was 708,289 tons,
• compared with 484,594 tons in the corres
. ponding week last year, an increase of
278,095 tons. The total amount of an-
thracite mined thus far in the year 1891
> was 1,740,504 tons, compared with 1,401,-
r 870 tons for the same period last year, a
t decrease of 888,088 tops.— Lfdntr.

Fun on tlic lti-istol.
? j Two and a half hours of roaring,
. i screaming laughter that brought tears to
r j the eyes and made sides shake. That
was the condition of things at Robinson's j
Opera House last night, where Miss i
Louise Arnot and her company presented j
"Fun on the Bristol." It is certain that
no passenger on that famous floating j
! palace ever had so much fun as had the
J people last night. While all the mem
bers of the company did well, Miss j
j Arnot was the life and soul of the per- \
; formance, and it can be truthfully said '
j that the part of the dashing widow has !
! never been acted more perfectly than it j
I was by this lady last evening. To say I
