Sudden Termination of a Vacation Wliicli Wan Spent in Freeland. Joseph Horwath, Gus Ilorwath and Frank Smith are a trio of New Yorkers who came to spend their two weeks' vacation in Freeland, where the Ilor wath boys' father resides. All three are yet in their teens and cut quite a shine when they appeared in town a short time ago. The Ilorwaths, up to a few months since, were employed in Philadelphia, hut found the old Quaker City entirely "too slow" for their prog ressive nature, so they emigrated to New York, where situations were se cured as hash-carriers in a Bowery restaurant. One of the acquaintances formed there was Frank Smith, a youth of dubious reputation, who hailed origi nally from Danbury, Conn. He taught them the run of the town and under his guidance frequent trips were made to Coney Island and other neighboring re sorts. When vacation time came around Frank was invited to "blow it in" at Freeland, where he was promised a loud time by his boon companions. The boys were no way punctual as to hours and promenaded the streets when they should have been in bed. On Tuesday evening of last week they were out MUCH LATER THAN USUAL and when returning home after enjoy ing a quiet game of poker the valuables in the jewelry store of W.J. Get/, at tracted the attention of Smith, who saw an opportunity to make a haul. He had little difficulty in persuading the others to assist him, and an entrance was ob tained by one of the numerous keys carried for such purposes. Placing little Fred Ilorwath on guard the youth ful burglars went inside, extinguished the light which Vlr. Get/, has burning every night and began their work. Not wishing to create an extraordinary sen sation they satisfied themselves with much less than they could have taken, fearing they might be detected when leaving town with the booty, which they proposed to convert into cash at a three-ball establishment near their city residence. When the robbery was discovered the next morning Mr. Getz began a vigorous search for the guilty parties, but nothing was learned further until Thursday evening, when he was informed that articles answering the description of THE MISSING GOODS had been seen in the possession of Fred Horwath. Armed with a search warrant on Friday Constables San It and Qmgley called at the residence of Joseph Horwath, Sr., 011 Centre Street, and found there a considerable quantity of the stolen property. The following day Smith and Gus were arrested while re turning from Ha/.leton, where they had been seeing the sights. A search of their'persons brought forth more of the articles, which they claimed were given to them by Joe Horwath, who had made good use of his time by skipping back to New York. He not only deserted his colleagues, but robbed them also, taking $25) belonging to Smith before he went. No trace of him can be found. The other two were given a hearing before Squire Buckley and committed to the county jail to await the action of the grand jury. Their vacation was limited to two weeks by their New York employ er, but it will undoubtedly be extended to an indefinite period. On Smith was found a small memorandum book, con taining a complete INVENTORY OF THE ARTICLES taken. The list was as follows: 12 pocket knives, 1 carving set, A dozen silver-plated knives and forks, 1 dozen silver sugar spoons, 1 dozen table spoons, 3 single spoons, 18 tea spoons, 8 har monicas, 1 violin, 1 jews-harp, J silver cups, 1 flute, 1 gold watch, 1 silver watch and 1 diamond ring. tinder the Wedding Hell. William Birkbeck aud Miss May Fritz inger were married at the residence of the bride's parents, on Johnson Street, last Saturday evening. The ceremony was performed by Rev. E. D. Miller under a large floral bell. Miss Ida Oswald was the bridesmaid and Harry McClellan acted as goomsman. Misses Jessy and Daisy Birkbeck were the flower girls and Miss Birdie Davis played the wedding march. The affair was con ducted on a very grand scale throughout, and was attended by a number of the young couple's relatives and friends. They were the recipients of many hand some and useful gifts, and have started out on their voyage through life under the most auspicious circumstances. Opening of the Season. Barlow Bros.' Minstrels closed their week's engagement at the Arch Street Theatre, last night, to a crowded house. The Barlow Brothers have proved a strong drawing card for the Arch Street Theatre, crowded houres prevailing nightly with standing room at a pre mium. The company is, without excep tion, good, and especially must be men tioned James Barlow, who kept the audi ence busy laughing. Billy Barlow also helped to keep up the merriment. The singing and dancing was admirable, and several novelties were introduced which completely took the audience by storm. The company is an excellent one and can be commended to the places where they are billed.— Philadelphia Times. At Freeland Opera House, Wednesday evening, August 12. Reserved seats on sale at Ferry & Christy's book store. Candidate for l>i*trlct Attorney. Attorney John M. Carman, of Nanti coke, announces himself in another column as a candidate for the Demo cratic nomination for district attorney. Mr. Carman has entered upon the can vas after a careful study of the field, feeling confident of his ability to fulfil I the trying duties of the position if he is nominated and elected. His name would add strength to the ticket in all parts of the county and his election would be a credit to Luzerne, which lias suffered too long from District Attorney Darte's incapability. The many red-handed murderers who es caped the gallows in this county during the past year went free, not for the want of evidence, but through the prosecutor's inability to present it properly before the judge arid jury. Mr. Carman's wide experience in such criminal cases would overcome these present difficulties, and if justice should fail the fault could not be laid at the district attorney's door, as it now is. The lower delegation to the county convention will contain several I Carman people. FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, AUGUST 6, 1891.

Both reports were ac cepted. SEWERAGE BUSINESS. The street committee reported that they had met Mr. McNair, of Ilazleton, in regard to the sizes of pipes to be used in the sewer. Thev also reported hav ing visited, in company with Hon. Eck ley B. Coxe, the proposed outlet of the sewer, and received his permission to empty into the ditch below the L. V. B. R. They also stated that they had or dered Franz Mackl, of Mauch Chunk, to make the survey necessary to the laying of t lie pipes. Councilman Williamson spoke about parties on lvidge Street, between Main and South, making propositions to him to have the sidewalks laid. He was told that an ordinance was already passed authorizing sidewalks to be laid on the west side of that street. Archibald Phillips asked council con- ! cerning the awara of the viewers, who viewed the extension of Pine Street, j claiming that the assessment was too ; high on him. lie was told that the mat ter was in the hands of the viewers, and until their report was presented to court council could do nothing. SPECIAL SESSION TO HE CALLED. The secretary reported that he had written to five different manufacturers of pipe, and also notified Surveyor Mackl, of Mtiuch Chunk, to come up. I When an answer is received from them he was authorized to call the council to-1 get her in special session. A question arose as to the time in which payment for sidewalks put down at the expense of the borough is to be paid. It was agreed that all owners of property whose sidewalks were put down by tiie street commissioner be given ten j days' notice to pay for the same. If i they fail to do so then the 20 per cent, j will be added and mechanic's liens tiled against them if not paid in thirty days. Council then adjourned to meet at the call of the secretary. To Our Subscribers. The special announcement which ap peared in our columns some time since, ; announcing a special arrangement with Dr. P. J. Kendall Co., of Knosburgh Falls, Vt., publishers of "A Treatise 011 the Horse and his Diseases," whereby our subscribers were enabled to obtain a copy of that valuable work free by send ing their address to B. J. Kendall Co. (and enclosing a two-cent stamp for mailing same) is renewed for a limited period. We trust all will avail them- j selves of the opportunity of obtaining this valuable work.

Kemmerer & Co., have been doing a meat packing business in a small way at their farm in Sandy Valley. They have killed from seventy to eighty hogs, and a number of beeves, every week, and find a ready market for their salt and smoked meats and lard among the neighboring company stores. It is reported that they feel en couraged at the success they have already attained, and are contemplating an ex tensive enlargement of this business. Kdward and Jacob Garis, assisted by their father Abram Garis, are doing the work.— White Haven Journal. DEATHS. BELL. —At Freeland, August 2, James W., son of John and Margaret Bell, aged 5 months and 15 days. Interred at Freeland Cemetery on Tuesday. KCKLEY NOTES. Our quiet little town seemed as if it wais de serted on Sunday afternoon and evening-, owing to the absence of the Never Sweat Club. They were at Scale Siding playing the club of that place and defeated them by a score of 17 to 1. About 11.80 P. M. they arrived home and it seemed as if they had a good time. The Never Sweats are a Jolly crowd. The P. O S. of A. Iland, of Freeland, attended the picnic of Camp 144, of this place, 011 Satur day evening. The Soapine Club will play at White Haven 011 Sunday. Miss Annie O'Donnell, who had been ill for some time, is able to be around again. The Never Sweats and the Sweats of town will cross bats here next Sunday. It was always thought that three nights a week were mashers' nights, but some of our young men take the seven nights. Suppose they are afraid of some other fellow cutting them out or their ladies straying away. SNOW BOY. BASKET PICNIC. The American Legion of Honor Takes Possession of tlio Honeyliole. i The sixth anniversary of the organiza- I ! tion of Union Council, No. 300, Ameri- j can Legion of Honor, was observed on i Monday in a manner which will he long ( remembered by its members and those | who had the pleasure of attending the , basket picnic given by the council at the Honeyliole. Freeland Council, No. 509, which is composed of the ladies of town ' ! who are connected with the order, was ! present in a body upon the special invi tation of Union Council, together with a number of other guests. Leaving Free- I land about 8.30 A. M. the party was con i veyed to the selected spot, enjoying a pleasant morning ride. The committee of arrangements, con- I i sisting of Hugh Malloy, Dr. W. V. 1 Nichols, E. A. Oberrender, Jas. J.Ward j and Dr. F. Schileher, had the grounds arranged and everything in perfect order j before the pleasure-seekers arrived, j The national colors floated gaily from a tall flag-pole in the centre of the field, : and all nature seemed to offer a CORDIAL WEICOME TO TUE VISITORS, who came to disturb the solemn serenity jof this portion of Luzerne County. The day was perfect, the soft breeze from ! the water serving to offset any effect | felt from the sun's rays, which tried | hard but failed to penetrate the shady nook where the party had gathered, j When all were located safely on the | grounds the first part of the programme | was announced and taken up. The Lord Mayor of Honeyliole graciously con j descended to deliver an address of wel come. From his throne under a maple tree he was escorted by a committee of ' the council. From the appearance of . his costume he was three hundred years | behind the age (though his pate was en | cased in American-made tin), but as the | ways of the Honeyliole are not Free ! land's ways the party withheld criticism l and gazed in awe at his strange attire I while they waited for the words of wis dom he might speak. He rebuked those who had infringed upon his dominions without permission, but as the counten ances of his hearers bore the imprint of Honor he would forgive this unin i tended discourtesy. To Union Council and its guests he accorded the liberty to j use freely of everything they found and ! enjoy themselves as best they knew how. I So far His Lordship's disguise was J perfect, and it was not until he had in flicted upon them TWO STANZAS OF ORIGINAL POETRY that they discovered the Lord Mayor to ! be their old friend, Past Commander I Schileher. The response was made by D. J. McCarthy, who followed the Dr.'s j closing poetical effusion with a few im ! promptu verses suitable to the speaker, the place and the occasion. This humor | ous opening of the day's pleasure inocu- I lated everyone with a good feeling and a desire to keep up the fun. j Refreshments, cigars, balls, bats, fish ing tackle and other sporting articles were set out and all helped themselves I to anything they wished. Quite a nurn- | ! her went off fishing, others boating and | I when DePierro's Orchestra strck up their I music dancing was indulged in. The i principal event of the forenoon, how ever, was the game of ball played be ! tween clubs selected from the Drifton and Freeland members of the council. 1 ! When the seventh inning was ended the electric gong sounded for dinner and the j score stood a tie at 14. By mutual con ; sent the game was declared a draw, though Freeland would have won but for the unique decisions of the umpire. Over one hundred people sat down to I dinner, which was spread upon three large tables erected for the purpose. t There was NO LIMIT TO ANYTHING • in the eating and drinking line, and the sumptuous repast was enjoyed by all. When the major portion of the good things had disappeared Commander I Neuberger introduced Rev. J. W. Bis choff, who delivered a short after-dinner address. A brief account of the history |of Union Council was given, during which he produced a number of face tious photos of its leading spirit and Past Commander, Dr. Schileher. They had ' been taken unknown to the Doctor j during certain meetings when he was on his dignity. After paying a splendid tribute to his services the speaker pre | sented him with a handsome token from i the members in recognition of the work he has accomplished. It was in a gold i emblem of the order, made in the form 1 of a watch-charm, and was STUDDED WITH DIAMONDS, which came from the Grand Council in Philadelphia. The inscription read: "Presented to Dr. F. Schileher, by I Union Council, No. 300, A. L. H., ! Freeland, Pa." The recipient was over whelmened with surprise, but thanked | the donators in a few pleasant remarks. : The remainder of the day was spent in various ways, including another game of ball, which was won by Freeland. A joint meeting of both councils was held, at which James F. Sweeney, of Drifton, was initiated as a member of Union Council. The day was greatly enjoyed by all. The Coxes Win. The Wilkes-Barre Leader of last even ing makes the following announcement : Judge Rice handed down an order to-day in the suit in equity of Eckley B. Coxe against the supervisors of Foster Town ship. In it the defendants are enjoined from taking any steps from the collection of road taxes from plaintiffs until thev shall be given full opportunity to work out the same. The supervisors are en joined from employing laborers, expend- I ing money, making contracts and issuing orders for work done upon the roads since March, 1891, to an amount, which the aggregate will exceed the amount . which will be received in cash from tax payers electing not to work out their taxes, until plaintiffs shall have full op portunity to work out their taxes. This : also applies to the supervisors of Hazle ; Township. Going to California. ' Win. J. Getz will shortly leave Free . land to accept a position as jeweler in j California, and has turned over his stock i ;of jewelry, clocks, watches and musical j instruments to Win. Glover, Jr., of Haz • i leton, who is now acting as manager of I the establishment. Some very good I I bargains in this line of goods can be had 1 1 until August 25, and by that time it is - j expected that all will be sold. Mr. ' Glover will then carry,on the business r | for himself and equip the place with a I large and varied stock.
