A I at ul Acoident at Heaver Meatlow.
Daniel McLaughlin and his Hun
garian laborer, while working in their
breast in Coxe Bros, and Co's Beaver
Meadow colliery on Tuesday afternoon,
were almost hurled under a heavy fall of
coal. The Hungarian was instantly
killed and Mr. McLaughlin received in
juries which will probably result fatally.
Mr. McLaughlin has a wife and family
in Ireland and the Hungarian also has
a family in the old country. Air. Mc-
Laughlin is a brother of Pat k McLaugh
lin, of Ridge Street, this borough.
A Word for Homo Industry.
Notices have been posted up in the
most prominent places in town, offering
employment to 200 hoys and girls at the
Weatherly silk mill. This showsthe push
and energy displayed by the citizens and
business men of such towns as Weatherly,
who are always ready and willing to ad
vance the interests of the town hy offer
ing inducements to manufacturers to
locate in their midst. Freeland possesses
all the advantages that a manufacturing
company could desire and if a little en
couragement was given to manufacturers
to locate in Freeland, employment could
be found for the hoys and girls at home
instead of sending them to Weatherly
and elsewhere.

Wants the lllg Tunnel Stopped.
An obstruction has been placed in the
way of the Jeddo Tnnnel Company,
which has commenced work on the big
tunnel to be driven through the Nescopec
mountain with the intention of draining
the water out of the Ebervale mines and
running the same into the little Nescopec
i creek.
There was filed in the Prothonotary's
office Monday a hill in equity in which a
number of farmers along the creek,
Charles W. Williams, Richard N. Wil
i liains, John F. Alse, W. A. Roth, Ed
j ward Jacobs and others, are the plain
: tiffs, and the Tunnel company the
| defendants. The farmers ask that the
companies he restrained from carrying
! out the undertaking for wnich they are
: chartered, and from running the mine
water into the little Nescopec creek.
They claim that they use the water of
the creek for watering their horses and
irrigating their lands, and that it is ab
solutely necessary for these purposes.
The mine water if run into the creek
would render it utterly useless for these
i purposes. It would kill vegetation and
| be unfit for domestic purposes or water
! ing stock. They also file an affidavit
! from Dr. George A. Koenig, Professor of
; metallurgy and mineralogy in the Uni
; versity of Pennsylvania, who gives an
analysis of the water taken from the
i Lat,timer mines and states under oath
that such water would destroy all vege
; tation and be totally unfit for domestic
I uses.
The Junior Hand of Hazlcton Disbanded.
The Ilazleton Plain Speaker of the 21st
inst.. in commenting on the disbanding
of the Junior Band of that place, among
other things has this to say :
'The conditions of dissolution were
that each member was to retain the
instrument he was playing at the
' time, and in addition receive a pro rata
division of the total cash funds in the
treasury increased hy a like division of
the funds acquired by the sale of the
instruments, and so forth. This gave
each member $54 and his instrument at
least, and those having cash were able to
drive a good bargain in buying some of
the instruments. It is said that an SBS
instrument was sold for 97 cents, and
that almost a similar sacrifice resulted
from the sale of other instruments. The
property of the Society was valuable,
and some people claim it was an unwise
and impolitic thing to allow it to pass
out of the Ilazleton organization so long
as there were enough members in the
town to hold the organization together
under the provisions of its charter.
What personal motives prompted them
to the disband act is not a matter for
consideration, hut it is too had that the
people of the town must lose the pleasure
of the open air concerts that for years
past they so heartily enjoyed, because
some one blundered. Of course, some
people don't like it."
The TKIIIUNB joins in the sorrow felt
at its dissolution. The organization in
(piestion was one that any town should
feel proud of, and wesincerley hope that
the citizens of Ilazleton will take steps
to have it reorganized. True, it takes
years of labor and hard study, not taking
into account the financial part of the
business, to make a band a success. That
this was not the cause we are certain,
for in our vast experience in such mat
ters we know of no two towns where the
people are so liberal in contributing
towards their home bands than Ilazleton
' and Freeland.
Freeland has two bands that its citizens
are proud of, and we hope it may be a
long time before we are called upon to |
chronicle the dissolution of either of i
them.

FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, APRIL 30, 1891.
The Work of the Mine ComuiiHvlon.
When the Commission, to revise and
amend the mine and ventilation laws of
the Anthracite coal fields, was appointed
by the Governor a few months ago it
was expected by every miner in the re
gion that something should be done by
that body to improve the laws, which
are at present of some benefit to miners
and others employed in and about the
mines, and that the most defective parts
of the laws, as they now stand, would be
amended in such a manner as to render '
them of some value to those whom they '
governed. This, however, has not been
realized, but, instead, has been just the
reverse in some respects. Through the
utter disregard of the interests of their
fellow-workers, and their inability (?) to
live for a few weeks without the couple of
dollars they had earned by their labor,
four members of the Commission,namely,
P. F. Brennan, P. H. Devers, J.S. Dow
ling and Edward Williams, have brought
about a very complicated condition of i
affairs and necessitated the issuing of
two reports.
At a meeting of the Commission two
weeks ago a report was drawn up which
was presented to them for their approval.
It was signed by all the members of the
Commission except the two operators, i
who refused to approve of it, claiming it
would be detrimental to their interests.
Among other minor amendments this re
port recommended the following :
First—One making the office of mine
inspector elective.
Second—One requiring the delivery of
powder to the miners at the face of their
chambers, as timbers are now delivered.
Third—one requiring the enforcement
of the penalty clause.
These were the main points to which
the two operator-members objected. i
A couple of days after the report had
been accepted by the Commission the
four men named above presented their
certificates of attendance, on which they
were to receive their pay, to Mr. Connell,
of Scranton, who was Chairman of the
Board (and also one of the operators who
refused to sign the report), for his signa
ture. It was here Mr. Connell got in his
work of bulldozing on behalf of himself
and the many other operators in the
Anthracite region. He stated most em
phatically that the report did not suit j
the operators, and while it remained so I
he would not sign their certificates to re- j
ceive their pay. He asked them if they j
would sign another report with the ob- ■
jectionable clauses left out, which was
signed and approved by himself and his
colleague, and after some coaxing they
consented. As the matter now stands j
two reports are in the hands of the
Legislature, one containing a few amend
ments which may be of some little bene
fit to the miners, and the other contain
ing nothing at all that will make the
law s any better than they are at present.
As a whole the Commission recom
mends the repeal of the act to provide
for the examination of miners in the
Anthracite region and thereby removes
all objections as to the employment of
incompetent persons as miners.
District Assembly l(i, Knights of La
bor, held a very interesting session at
Scranton on Friday and Saturday, at j
which the principal business transacted i
was a discussion of the work of the
Mine Commission and their reports. A
petition was adopted, to be presented to
the Legislature, praying that the min
ority, or original report be accepted and j
setting forth the reasons therefor. The ■
petition is as follows :
To the Honorables the Members of the Sen- \
ate and House of Representatives of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania:
The members of District Assembly No.
10, Knights of Labor of Luzerne and
Lackawanna counties, do most respect
fully set forth that at their district meet
ing held at Scranton, on the 24th and j
25th days of April, 1891, it was unani
mously adopted to petition your honor
able bodies to adopt the minority report
of the Anthracite Mine Commission, and
we assign the tollowingreasons therefor.
That the Commission at its first meetings
unanimously agreed that after the final
adoption of any section, any changes or
alterations in any section of the old law,
that the same could not afterwards be
changed. Notwithstanding this, after
adopting the section as set forth in the
minoritv report and after the adoption
of the bill as a whole with instructions
to print and sign the same and after the
same was completed and printed the
section as set forth in the minority report
was stricken from the bill and Section 8
of Article XVII as set forth in the ma
jority report adopted in its stead. This
was done at Scranton after interviewing
the chairman who is local operator; the
report as signed by the coal operators,
mine inspectors, mining engineers and
four of the miners, namely, Edward
Williams, Brennan, Devers and Dowling.
The hill contrary to the vote adopted by
the Commission is not the bill as legally
adopted hy the Mine Commission. The
report of the minority is the bill as
adopted properly by a majority of the
Mine Commission.
The most essential feature of the Mine
law for the protection of the miners is
that incorporated in the minority report
and in behalf of the thousands of miners
of the Anthracite coal fields, we petition
your honorable bodies to pass the
recommendation of the minority of the
Commission and we will ever pray, etc.
The document is signed by D. J.
Campbell, M. W. 1). A. 16 and a com
mittee consisting of A. F. McAnulty,
J. J. Brislin and J. J. Hart.
Little Hope for Ilallot Reform.
Ballot Reform is not making much
progress at Ilarrishurg. There is evi
dently a determination on the part of
some of the Senators to kill the Baker
bill hy delaying action upon it, but those
Senators may depend that the people are
keeping a sharp watch upon them. The
ballot reform bill should not be laid
aside to make way for the Constitutional
Convention measure. Both ought to he
passed. If the Baker bill is side-tracked
under the pretense that the side-trackers
are anxious to bring about ballot reform
by amending the Constitution, the matter
will go over for two years, at least.
There is, undoubtlv, an almost
unanimous sentiment in Pennsylvania in
favor of ballot reform, and while the
people recognize that a thoroughly
efficient system of voting oannot be
adopted until the Constitution is amended
they cannot he hoodwinked by the op
ponents of the Baker bill. As much of
ballot reform as it is possible to have
under the Constitution as it now is should
be provided, and when the proposed
amendments are made thorough secrecy
of the ballot and personal registration
can he added.

LIFE OF WM. TEC I'MS EH SHERMAN, j
I.ate Retired General, U. S. A. Hy Willis
Fletcher Johnson, Anst'il by Mnjor-
General O. O. Howard, IT. S.
A. Hubbard Brothers
Philadelphia, 'Ol.
The public will greet with much in- J
terest this complete biography of the j
last of the great Union Generals. Sher- I
man's autobiography, published years
ago, was only a partial record of his ca
reer, and until the appearance of the '•
present volume, a full history of the
famous soldier was lacking. In this;
work, however, every important scene
! in his eventful life is portrayed with
! graphic power; due prominence is given 1
' to his social and personal traits in times
I of peace; there is a compilation of many
I of his best letters, etc.; and a closing
touch of interest is added in the tributes
j and eulogies pronounced above him since
j his death, and the estimate of his mili
tary genius and his personal character
made by those who knew him best. Mr.
Johnson has done his work as a historian
well, giving a narrative that is at once
i coherent, complete, fascinating in inter
| est, and evidently imbued with earnest
j admiration for his subject. General
! Howard, who was one of Sherman's
j closest comrades, has reviewed the entire
| work, insuring its absolute accuracy in
! matters of military detail, and has writ
ten an introduction. The volume is pro
fusely and elegantly illustrated with nd
' mirably-executed portraits, war scenes,
! etc., and is not only an excellent speci-
I men of the bookmaker's art, hut is un-
I questionably the best biography of one
I of the greatest generals of modern times.
