Death of Junius M. IMIKHI*.
On Friday last at 7.'0 p. m., the death
reaper made his appearance in our little
borough and claimed us his victim Jas.
M. Edgar, Jr. The deceased was ill but
a short while, and his sudden taking oIT
was a great surprise 1 to his many friends. :
He was a young man greatly respected ;
by all who knew him, and gave great
promise of being able to make a name j
for himself in the world of science. IB
was employed by Coxe Bros. A; Co. at j
Hrifton, as an eleetrician, and had charge ,
of the electric light plant at the shops, j
His funeral took place 011 Monday and
was largely attended. The members of ;
the Sons of Veterans, Citizens' Hose C > , 1
P. 0. S. of A. and the Knights of Malta,
taking part. Funeral services were con
ducted by Rev. B'schotT, of Cpper Le
high, and the chaplains of the various ;
orders. His age was 24 years, 8 months
and fourteen (lays.
Fire at Drift on.
The people of this neighborhood were
aroused from their slumber a trifle ;
earlier this morning than usual, the ,
cause being the prolonged blowing of
the big whistle tit Drifion at about 4 3n ,
o'clock. A lire occurred in a frame
shanty in the rear of the old Drifton
Hotel, now used as a hoarding house, j
under the management of Jno. 11. Ilaas. I
The fire was quickly brought under con- '
trol, and. with the exception of the loss ;
of *.he shanty, very little damage was !
done.
.SerimiMly Injured At tipper Lehigh.
An accident ocurred at No. 4 Cpper Lo- |
high yesterday, by which a Hungarian
named Andrew Kreincik, is likely to
lose bis life. On tiie plain, about thirty
feet from the ground, the tracks of the
"Katy-did" slope connect with the tracks
of the main slope. A bridge, that is
hoisted and lowered with a crane on the
ground, is used so that coal may be hois
ted from either place. Yesterday while
some workmen were lifting the bridge,
thinking that the car had passed over,
the car struck the bridge causing the
crane to fly backwards, the handle strik
ing the Hungarian on the head, facturing
his skull.
One of tin* Popular Flays of tli© Day.
"The Dear Irish Boy" is one of the
: popular plays of the day. Season after
season it makes its rounds to the profit
of its owners and entertainment of large
crowds. There is something about its
homely teachings and witticisms and its
weird scenic display of ivy and shamrock
that appeals directly to the sympathy of
a large class of play-goers. It is given
by a competent company headed by Gus
Reynolds, whose portraiture of the un
scrupulous MeOlutchey is well studied
and finished. Interspersed are a num
ber of Irish songs and melodies and a
I variety of jigs, reels and clogs.— Chicago

FREEI AND, PA., MARCH 24, 1891.
| EDITOR TRIBUNE:—For some time past
the "notables" in and around the Fourth
legislative district, have been paying con
j siderable attention to the welfare of the
j mine workers, and the existing mine laws
Iby which they are governed. It is not
| doubted but that their aims and objects
were of the highest order, although it
I seems there was a little smattering of
j "Saw wood" to be attained in the end.
Taking it for granted that it was for the
welfare of the mine workers, and now
i hat the mine commission is at work, it
may not he out of place to point out
what appears to be one of the chief de
fects in the mine laws as they now stand,
namely, the system of Coroner's jury
that is now in vogue for investigating
mine accidents. For years the mine
workers have been waiting to hear of
some new method, that would lift the
mantle that covers all these supposed ac-1
eidents, which are so frequent of late
years. But instead of getting, it is grow- 1
ing worse, and for that reason there is
something needed iu this direction that
will show the true cause of these acci
dents. When a mine accident happens
the first tiling that is done is to empanel
a jury, to settle all matters of doubt that i
may be in the minds ot the public, but
in reality it seems their sole object is to I
exonerate the coal company from all
blame, and to curry favor for any emer
gency that may arise in the future. If
this system of Coroner's jury, for inves
tigating mine accidents is to continue, it
appears to be useless for the mine com
mission to build anything substantial
upon a rotten foundation, because the
record that they hlive left, after inves
tigating the apuliing mine disasters at
Nanticoke, South Wilkes-Barre, Dunbar,
or the Hill Farm mine, the Mammouth
mine near Scottdale, and the Jeanesville
disaster, show too plainly that this sys
tem is only a mockery on justice and
should be abolished without further de
lay. All of tlie above accidents appears
to have been caused by negligence, and
many arguments could he brought forth
to substantiate this assertion, for any
miner who lias given this subject any I
consideration knows from experience 1
that such accidents can be avoided if the
proper precautionary measures are used.
Well might this be said of the Jeanes
ville disaster, but a greed for gold, re
gardless of the sulleringand misery that
is caused by it, seems to be their aim.
1 be lives of the miners are the last
tiling taken into consideration, and will
be the last as long as this rotten system
of < 'oroner's jury remains to shield them.
From the appearance of the verdict, it
is evident that the Jeanesville jury has
beaten the record iu regard to telling the
public the true cause of the disaster that
happened at that place on the 4th of
February last. Of course any of the
English-speaking miners bad an idea
what the verdict would be when they
hemd of the disaster. As a general rule
in such cases, the operator must be ex
onerated from blame, also the general
superintendent, the mine inspector, and
last but not least, the gentleman who
lias acquired his position by bis ignor
ance of mining afTuirs, better known as
the "School book hobby," must bo
handled with care, for to have the dis
pleasure of any of the above named
gentlemen is equal to that of a felon.
If we take the mine inspector's report
and look it over carefully, we can see in I
our mind's eye the pages of that report
are fairly crimson with the innocent !
blood of the miners slaughtered in the !
mine of Pennsylvania. And what has
the Coroner's jury done to stop this
wholesale slaughter? Absolutely noth- j.
ing. Its presence has been to stimulate, I
rather than to eradicate, this wholesale
loss of life. The Jeanesville jury, it
seems, departed a little from the usual
order of things when it did not blauie it
i<n the men that made the hole into the
old workings, that let the water in.
Here is where the workings of the Cor
oner's jury may be seen in its true light. 1
Tne men that made the hole into the
old workings escaped, and for that rea
soip they could not give us the old
"Chestnut," negligence on the part of I
the miners. Live men are in the habit
of defending themselves, anil for that
reason Messrs. Coll and Boyle were not
blamed; yet the jury found means of
getting out of it by blaming it on the
survey. Of course, the party that made,
the survey must be dead or they would
be looking around yet for some dead
man to blame it on. Such has been the
workings of the Coroner's jury in in- j
vestigating mine accidents, and until
this iniquitous system is abolished, it is
j only a waste of time and money making
! new laws for to govern mines and mine
; workers. A MINER, j
Tlie Dear Irish Boy.
An Irish play that is new to this city is
Manager Holmes' attraction for this
week. It is called "The Dear Irish Boy." 1
While the story it tells is conventional, ■
! it is interesting for its rapid action, stage j
setting, sharp repartee, wit, coloring and
the dancing and singing that are insep
crable in plays of its kind. There is the
usual heroine in a peck of trouble, the
hackneyed vidian and his rascally tool
who hold a power over her that is even
tually overthrown by the intervention
l of relatives, her lover and the bold lad
dies and pretty colleens who give warrant
; of making her future life a peaceful one.
! <iiis Reynolds makes the part of an old
; rascal the central one of the play. He
gives an excellent characterization of a
scheming crafty and wily vidian in a vi
rile and vividly colored style, which is
only overdrawn when he becomes theat
ric for effect. Geo. Timmons and Blan
che Sherwood sing well and dance with
vigor, especially the first named who is
the possessor of a sweet tenor voice.
May Ley ton, J lurry English, Walter
Mcliruyne, Henry Clratton and Thomas
Smith preform their duties satisfactorily.
The scenery, of which there is sufficient
variety, is pretty and picturesque.—

Weekly Coal Report.
The anthracite coal trade continues
in a stagnant condition, and we are with
out any new or interesting feature to ;
note this week. The weekly output of •
coal is still in excess of the market re
quirement, notwithstanding the efforts of
the producing interest to curtail it. The
supply of the small steam sizes of an- j
thracite is not sufficient to enable ship-!
j>ers to satisfactorily fill their contracts,
out the domestic sizes are superabundant j
and hard to move. While there is con
siderable cutting of prices reported, yet •
the first-class coals command fair figures,
though at concessions from the circular !
prices, but 44 spot cargoes" from the col- !
iieries desired command better prices
than they did a few weeks ago.
The total amount of anthracite coal
sent to market for the week ending
March 14, as reported by the several i
carrying companies, was 667,300 tons, 1
compared with 524,656 tons in the corres
ponding week last year, an increase of
142,644 tons. The total amount of an
thracite mined thus far in the year IS9I
wa5h,774,484 tons, compared with 5,189,-
003 tons for the same period last year, an ;
increase of 1,585,481 tons. — Ledger.
