a car load of TerraCotta pipe. Those in
tending to lay drains the coming summer
will do well to consult him in regard to
prices before placing their orders else
where. Call and see samples at the
Brick store.
He Gave It Away.
The honestest fisherman that has been
heard from so far this season is a young
married man that resides on the out
skirts of the borough. After preparing
for a couple of days, on Saturduy last he
made a tour of the Oley, and when he
returned his wife asked him, "Did you
catch any John?" With a sigh John
answered in the negative. "Well,
did you see any ?" asked his wife. Yes,
replied John, "I saw a fellow from
Upper Lehigh have about ten that he
bought from a fish peddler at the lower
end of one of the streets over there, but
the fish peddler told me that he had just
sold out.
It is evident that this young man is
only an amateur and needs a little train
ing to keep up with the fishermen of
to-day.
Where Time Is Not I'reciouit.
There are many places throughout the
coal regions where the mail service is
slow, but it is in doubt if there is any
place where it is as slow, according to
the distance, as between Upper Lehigh
and Freeland. These two towns are
about a mile a part, yet it takes a letter
or paper from 12 to 24 hours to travel
from one office to the other, and some
times they fail to reach there at all.
Many of the go-ahead people from
Upper Lehigti get their mail at the Free
land post office, because it can be bad in
a few hours after it is posted anywhere
in the Lehigh region, thus keeping
abreast of the times. The people of
Upper Lehigh deserve better treatment
than this from the mail service and
should have it by all means. Why not
ask for it?
Hud a Itlglit ltoyal Time.
The Progressive Euchre Club held a
grand reception at their new club rooms
on Saturday last, which was more than
pleasant for those who took part in it.
The rooms were gaiiy decorated with
Hags of all nations, streamers and bunt
ing of every description adorned the
walls, and each member took pride in
making it as pleasant as possible
for the visitors. One of the peculiar
features of the laws of this club
is that no speech-making is allowed, and
as one of the members says, "It saves
us a lot of trouble and expense, besides
it is nothing hut a little wind that should
be taken out in the woods and let off."
The visitors expressed great satisfaction
for the way in which they were treated
and extended thanks to the members of
the club one and all, after which the rail
road committee escorted them to the
train.
Freeliind Hall l*layr Organize.
The members of the Freeland Base
Ball Association met at their rooms on
Sunday evening last and organized for
the season of 1891. P. H. II anion was
elected president and manager; John J.
McNelis will fulfill the duties of
secretary, and Michael Carr will act as
treasurer. The following are the direc
tors : I'at'k O'Donnell, Francis Brennan,
John J. McNelis, John J. Carr, Daniel
Bonner. Lumber has been procured to
repair the park fence and stands. It is
the determination of the association to
put a team in the field this year that
will eclipse anything ever seen in Free
land. Another meeting will be held soon
for the purpose of adopting a uniform
and laying out the other necessary ar
rangements for the coming season. The
members of the association says "that
the surrounding towns will have to
hustle for a place on the chart this year."
Special Announcement.
We have made arrangements with
Dr. B. J. Kendall Co., publishers of
"A Treatise on the Horse and his
Diseases," which will enable all our
subscribers to obtain a copy of that
valuable work free by sending their
address (enclosing a two-cent stamp
for mailing same) to Da. B. J. KENDALL
Co., ENOSBCBO FALLS, VT. The hook
is now recognized as standard authority
upon all diseases of the horse, as its
finenomenal sale attests, over four mil
ion copies having been sold in the paßt
ten years, a sale never before reached by
any publication in the same period of
time. We feel confident that our patrons
will appreciate the work, and be glad
to avail themselves of the opportunity
of obtaining a valuable book.
It is necessary that you mention this
paper in sending for the "Treatise."
This offer will remain open only a
short time.
Suicided at Drtftou.
Thursday evening last the village of
Drifton was thrown into a state of ex
; citement when the news was announced
that George W. Hadesty had committed
suicide by hanging himself.
While apparently in the best of health
for some time past, it was observed by
those who were acquainted with and
having business relations with him, that
there appeared to be something wrong
with his mental faculties, but no one
suspected that he would commit such a
rasti and foolish act as to take his own
life.
About 8 o'clock p. m. Deputy Coroner
Buckley was notified and immediately
went to the scene of the occurrence.
After viewing the body he empannelled
the following jury: P. M. Boyle, fore
man, Frank llepierro, Benj. .Shaver,
David E. Phillips, O. D. Fowler and
A. W. Roberts. The testimony taken
went to prove that he was seen at or about
8 o'clock on Thursday morning at the
plumbing shop, and, after giving orders
to his assistants, was not seen alive after
wards. He not having come home dur
ing the day or at his usual time at night,
search was instituted with the result
that on breaking open an inner door in
the shop, he was found hanging from a
beam and life was extinct. The verdict
rendered was that he came to his death
from hanging by the neck by a rope
suspended from the inside of the build
ing, his death resulting from his own
hunds done with suicidal intent while in
a state of insanity. His funeral took
place on Saturday at Pottsville.
The Hazleton Standard of the 18th
inst. in commenting on the suicide of
Mr. Hadesty, says "he was formerly in
business in Freeland, but failed." In
justice to the friends and relatives of the
deceased, we beg to contradict our con
temporary and say that he never was in
business in Freeland, consequently could
not fail. Some other person, whose
name was near akin to his, was, no
doubt, in Bro. Lubrecht's mind at the
time he wrote the article.
The XlrlghteHt In the Arena.
The Philadelphia Record is truly the
greatest marvel in modern journalism.
The history of that paper since it be
came the property of Wm. M. Singerly,
in 1877, has been one of unprecedented
success. The Record had then a daily
circulation of 5,200. Its proprietor at
once took the initiatory step in penny
newspapers, and since then it has come
into public favor with a rapid, healthy
growth, as is attested by its present
average daily output of 134,00(1 copies
tile second largest circulation in America
and double that of any two dailies in
Philadelphia. To put forth this im
mense quantity of Record* nearly twelve
hundred people are employed, for that
paper has the unique distinction of being
entirely independent of any outside as
sistance in its mechanical make-up, own
ing its own building, light, heat, power,
paper-mills, and even grows upon its
own land the trees ÜBed in the manu
facture of its paper supply. It is claimed
the Record can hew down its trees and
within twenty-four hours have them
transported into sheets of paper covered
with the freshest news and notes from
every portion of the world. This claim
lias been verified on many occasions.
The plants, machinery and material re
quired to publish the Record is worth
over two and one-half million dollars.
But the Record' superiority is due to
its manly and courageous style of strik
ing forcibly at injustice of every kind.
High tariffs, monopolies, railroad dis
crimination, political corruption and
jobbery find in it a dreaded adversary.
It was the pioneer and is to-day the
leading newspaper in the battle against
tariff robbery, and, although situated in
the hot-bed of protection, it has never
faltered in its duty to the people. It has
the courage of its convictions, and that
course has gained for it the respect and
administration of its political opponents.
Even in Philadelphia, where toe high
tariff sentiment is more prevalent than
in any part of the country, the Record
is conceded to possess more power than
the combined influence of any two Re
publican organs, while its prestige
throughout the State is simply wonderful.
In its relation to labor the Record'*
voice and sympathy are with the work
ing classes, and in every recent promi
nent struggle against tyrannical monopoly
or Unscrupulous employers it lias been
to workingmen a powerful auxiliary.
But when the occasion demands it does
not hesitate to speak with equal force
against the laboring element if the latter
makes unreasonable and uncalled for
demands.
On all questions of public import the
Record's sole aim is to be the ex
ponent of truth and to seek only those
endH which will bring the greatest good
to the greatest number. The fact that
the people ultimately coincide with its
opinions is proof of the Bound judgment
used hy the management. It is con
ducted in all its departments upon a
liberal and progressive plan which keeps
it abreast and often ahead of the times.
The Record has few equals and no
superiors in anv respect and is well
worthy of the brilliant success it has
achieved.
Weekly Coal Report.
The anthracite coal trade is in a fairly
healthy condition, and if the vexing
question of tolls were settled it is be
lieved an improvement already noted
would continue. While the managers of
the Lehigh Valley Railroad are averse to
stating officially the attitude they will
assume regarding the order of the Inter
state Commerce Commission in theCoxe
Bros. & Co. case, it is not believed by those
who should know that any reduction in
tolls will be made by the Lehigh Valley
Company. It is thought, however, that
that company will "Let the other fellow
wa'.k the floor," and if there is to beany
legal proceedings to enforce the reduc
tion either the Interstate Commission or
Coxe Bros. & Co. must begin the action.
The curtailment of the production of an
thracite continues to be well enforced,
and some of the companies have been
compelled during the past week to draw
upon their accumulated stocks of coal to
fill their orders. There has been a
preceptible increase in the demand for
some sizes of anthracite within the past
week. The warmer weather of the past
week was not conducive to the increased
consumption of the donfestic sizes, but,
: owing to the limited output of coal, there
is little of the newly mined stove and
; chestnut sizes being stocked. There is a
general impression in the coal trade that
i the lowest prices of the present season
have been seen, and that with the con
tinued curtailment of output the mar
j ket for coal will be in good shape to ad-
I vnuce prices before long.

FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, APRIL 23, 1891.
HAVE YOU A SIDEWALK ?
Council Notlfle* Negligent Property Own
er it to Comply With the Law.
The Freeland Council is after the man
who failed to comply with the borough
ordinance, which calls for a substantia!
sidewalk before every property. He is
a very uumerous personage in this town
and resides in every portion of the bor
ough. He has been notified year after
year with monotonous regularity until
he haß come to regard the little notices
only as reminders that the town has a
Council. Indeed, if this man is over
looked in the distribution of these of
ficial requests he is among the first to
accuse the borough fathers of neglecting
their duty. When the annual order to
derelict property owners is sent out this
man considers the matter on general
principles, thinks it would be a good
thing for the town and indulges in some
speculation as to the improvements he
will make. Then he stops. He is going
to see what his neighbor will doabout it.
Council, he reasons, did not say he should
make the start in putting down side
walks; and, well, the springtime went
and summer came, they came again and
went, and yet this sidewalk had not
arrived. The only section of Council's
notice which he feared was the clause
stating that if the order was not com
plied with by a certain date, the job
would be done by the borough, at his
expense, with 20 per cent, additional
added. But so often had the same thing
been said, and so seldom was it done,
that in time he looked upon it all as a
bluff. He confidently tells himseif that
Council had better not try that game on
him, that his property does not require
a sidewalk, and if pedestrians don't like
to walk past his property they can take
the other side of the street. With
that argument prepared to defend his
fiosition, he says he is ready to give the
>orough all the fight it wants. If Coun
cil seems to be serious, he goes and does
some plain talking to its members and
awaits the result. He has been known
to remark that he would "bust" the
whole municipal government if anyone
comes around to give him a sidewalk
without his orders.
For some unknown reason Freeland's
many former Councils appeared to fear
this man and his class, and when the
time expired for laying sidewalks few
attempts were made to carry out their
threats of doing the work at the property
owners' expense. The present Council,
however, promises that the summer of
1891 will witness a new departure in the
manner of dealing with those people.
The members have felt their way very
carefully, and being assured the law is
behind them they intend to enforce this
particular ordinance or know the reason
why. The street commissioner has
gathered all the information necessary
concerning those properties which have
no curbs and sidewalks, and the Council
has a sharp stick for the people who fail
to comply with this year's notices.
About ninety of these notices are now in
the possession of delinquent property
owners, and if they wish to avoid trouble
u prompt compliance is all that is re
quired. Councilmen state the bluff game
has been worked to death and an actual
force of men will take its place thiß
year. Every property, except those al
ready provided, will be supplied with* a
good, substantial sidewalk.
The members of Council realize that
the enforcement of this order may have
some disagreeable features and in carry
ing it out, the law will meet with oppo
sition from various quarters, but they
intend to treat all with impartiality and
thereby give no grounds for any justi
fiable complaints. They will try hard to
solve the sidewalk and sewerage ques
tions, and if their labors are successful
they can well afford to rest on their
lnurels as the greatest benefactors Free
land has ever had in a long while.

Alloy Ki11 l at Highland.
Tuesday morning, at No. 2 Highland,
I Patrick Gaffney, a son of Thos. GalTney,
! of Centre Street, aged 14 years, who was
! employed at the breaker looking after
a conveyor that carried the coal from the
| screens to the boiler house, was instantly
i killed, having by some manner got caught
! in the drag that conveyed the coal and
carried to the end of the chain. Mine
! Inspector Lewis was immediately noti
j fied of the accident and came over from
llazletan to view the scene of the acci
dent. He notified Deputy Coroner j
Buckley to empanel a jury and hold an
inquest. Yesterday the Squire swore in
the following jury: C. A. Johnson,
Condy O. Boyle, J. P. McDonald, Jos.
Neuburger, John Regans and John J.
McLaughlin, who viewed the body and
then went to Highland, where an ex
amination was made of the surroundings I
where the accident happened.
A number of witnesses were subpu ned
and at 5 o'clock the jury met at the ollice
of the Coroner at Freeland, where the ;
examination was held. Mine Inspector j
Lewis was present and conducted the i
examination. The testimony of John
McMenemin, outside foreman; Neal
Brislin, the breaker engine boy; Noah j
Schinsko, a laborer, and Calvin Kester,
the driver boy on the slate bank, was
taken, after which the following verdict
was rendered :
That the said Patrick Gaffney came to
his death in Foster Township, Luzerne
County, State of Pennsylvania, on the
21st day of April, A. D., 181)1, by being
caught in a coal conveyor at No. 2 High
land breaker, operated by G. B. Markle ;
tfc Co., and that said death resulted
through negligence on the part of the
said G. B. Markle & Co. in not providing
a proper railing along the said conveyor,
which is in direct violation of Article V,
Section 5 of the mining laws of the j
Anthracite coal districts of Pennsylvania i
and which reads as follows: "All ma
chinery used in or around the mines and i
collieries,and especially in breakers, such
as engines, rollers, wheels, screens, shaft
| ing and belting, shall be protected by
| covering or railing so as to prevent per
sons from inadvertently walking against
or falling upon the same. The sides
of stairs, trestles and dangerous plank
walks, in and around the collieries, shall
be provided with hand and guard railing
to prevent persons from falling over
their sides."
The funeral will take place this after
noon at 2 o'clock. Interment in St.
Ann's cemetery.
