On Saturday the corner-stone of the building to be erected by Washington Camp Flail Association will be laid with I appropriate ceremonies. The founda tion of the edifice is almost completed, and portions of the framework were begun yesterday by Contractor J. B. Ziegler. Another tier of marble facing on the front will finish the foundation, and this is expected to be in position by Saturday. A stone from the famous en trenchments at Valley Forgo, where ; General Washington spent a doleful | winter with his army during the Revolu- j tionary War, has been secured for the j corner, and is in Hazleton now under going preparations for the purpose. It will be laid at the southeastern corner of the building in line with the marble facing.

Fatal and Sertoli* Acel<lent*. I A heavy fall of coal and rock occurred ! yesterday morning in No. 4 slope, Upper ! Lehigh, and workmen began removing the debris. Among those who were standing near by was Thomas Rhoda, a young man of Upper Lehigh. While the mules were pulling out a large rail from the wreck one end swung around i and struck Rhoda in the stomach, caus ing serious internal injuries. lie was removed to his home and died there at 8 o'clock last evening. He was a mem ber of Camp 147, P. O. S. of A., which will attend the funeral at 10 A. M. on ; Saturday. George Sehaub, of Front Street, was 1 engaged yesterday in trimming timber i with a large axe at the same colliery. I He missed the prop which he was cutting ( and struck his left foot, indicting a deep gash. He is suffering much pain from the injury. Wm. Ward, of Ridge Street, employed at No. 3 Highland, was caught between a car and a prop yesterday. His right foot was severely bruised, i Frank S. Russell, an agent representing Folwell Bro. A Co., dry goods manu facturers of Philadelphia, was seriously hurt by being thrown from a carriage about 2o'clock yesterday afternoon. 11 e had been taking orders in town during the day, and was driving to the Drifton store when the horse became frightened at the whistling of a locomotive below j the Lehigh Valley Railroad.

A sudden jerk capsized the vehicle, i throwing out the driver and Mr. Russell. i The former was scratched and cut con i siderable about the shoulders and arms, ! but his companion fared muoh worse, i 1 The agent struck the ground with Ihb head, cutting that portion of the body in ■ several places.

Recently of Freeland, Is Landed in :• Jersey Jail. The Philadelphia papers on Sunday morning told of the arrest of a pick pocket at Camden the day previous. A number of passengers crossed the ferry to take the seashore train about 4 o'clock that afternoon. Among them was a Mrs. Fannie Smith, of Atlantic City,who was returning to !n r home from Phila delphia. Close to Iter walked the light fingered gent, Frank Smith, of Dan bury, Donn., who made a record here for hint self by assisting to burglarize Getz's jewelry store last .1 uly. He was released from the county jail recently on account of Mr. Getz failing to appear against him, and the TRIBUNE last week men tioned that he was too fast a young man to be allowed to rim at large. On Friday he disappeared front this place, going to Philadelphia, where Joe Horworth, who was also implicated in the burglary, is Id ling. People cannot exist on air in that city any more than they can here, and as Frank was broke when he left town he found it necessary to return to the tricks he learned on the Bowery, where lie lived before paying Freeland his disastrous visit. While j stepping on the train Mrs. Smith felt some one jostling her more than was necessary. Fearing that an attempt was about to be made to pick her pocket, she instinctively dropped her hand to her side and caught hoi 1 of the hand of her thieving namesake, who had grabbed her purse. She screamed for help when Smith jumped of." t lie car and ran down the platform of i 1 station. She appris ed Win. Burnett :: ml Thomas Brannan, 1 two railroad employes, who went after i him and brought him back, but not be- i fore be had giv n his pursuers a long chase. He retn: d the pocketbook to Mrs. Smith, and • was held until an officer arrived and look him in charge. 1 Later in the d >y he was taken before Justice Uassady. The Accused was very ' cool throughout the hearing of testi mony, and in a ln moss-like manner de manded to know the amouut of bail re- ; quired. He was informed that he could : secure his liberty by furnishing $1999 bail. Frank was unable to induce any of the Jerseymen n the office to become | his bondsman, and Justice Uassady com mitted him to tin* Camden Connty Jail to await trial. Word was received from Camden yes- 1 terday in response to inquiries concern ing the prisoner, and the officials there state that he is unknown to the police of that city or Philadelphia' lie refuses to give any information, excepting his name and that he lives in New York. He is neatly div d and a description of his clothing tallies with what he wore when leaving hen*. The PottHvllle Monument. The unveiling of the soldiers' monu ment at Pottsviile next Thursday will be one of the biggest events in the his tory of that town. The gathering of old soldiers on this occasion will he very large, at least ten thousand veterans being expected.

There will be it National Guard contingent, a secret so- i ciety turnout and a big volunteer fire men's division. At the same time a meeting of the First Defenders will take place. These are the survivors of the troops who responded first to the call for men during the war. The State has , caused a number of medals to he struck for the First Defenders, in recognition of their services, and these will be pre sented by Governor Pattison. Alining Engineer* to Meet.

On Friday, Octobers, an I excursion will be made to the Lehigh region, including a visit to the iron breaker of Coxe Brothers <& Co., at Drif ton, and to the collieries where large ! seams are worked by stoppings. Freeland Can Supply the Demand. Among the city visitors during the past few days was ex-Senator Eckley B. Coxe. At present, he takes no interest in politics, but sticks to coal. His Drif ton mines are said to be the best worked in Luzerne. The town of Drifton looks inviting and is replete in substantial homes, and there is not a saloon in the place. Freeland, a mile distant, has forty-four and makes up for it.— Phila. Good Now* for Operator*. The condition of the coal trade has not changed materially since our hist report.
