ENTHUSIASTIC DEMOCRATS.
Addresses Made by State and County
Candidates at Hazleton.
The people of Hazleton and vicinity
gave a hearty welcome to the Democratic
cratic candidates on Tuesday evening.
Hazle Hall was crowded to the doors
and with music and cheers the voters
greeted the leaders of the party which is
endeavoring to redeem Pennsylvania
from its present depths of degradation.
The meeting was the largest held there
for a number of years, and the interest
manifested in the addresses of the
speakers was extraordinary. Those who
feared that the voters of lower Luzerne
were not up with the questions of the
day were treated to a surprise. The
audience proved itself to be familiar
with every topic discussed, as was evi
denced by its keen appreciation of the
numerous local and general hits made
by the orators.
A. L. Tilden, of Erie, candidate for
State Treasurer, was the first speaker,
and was followed by Robert E. Wright,
of Allentown, candidate for Auditor
General. Both gentlemen confined
themselves to a discussion of State is
sues. The address of Mr. Wright was
an exceptionally strong one. After him
came George 11. Hoffman, of Philadel
phia, who spoke in English and German.
The introduction of State Chairman
Kerr was the signal for an outburst of
applause which lasted several minutes.
His address was one of the best of the
evening, and in every sentence he de
livered a home thrust to the party of
corruption against which he is making a
fearless stand. When Mr. Kerr con
cluded the county questions were taken
up and handled by Treasurer John S.
McGroarty, Judge Lynch, John M. Gar
man, Lee Stanton, J. C. Wiegand and
John D. Hayes. The latter spoke prin
cipally upon the necessity of a Constitu
tional Convention, giving ample illus
trations to show that tiie present instru
ment needs amending.
After the meeting the State Chairman
stated he was more than pleased with
the reception accorded the party, and
said he is more confident of victory than
lie was last year. Mr. Kerr has a soft
place in his heart for the mining regions
and the miners. He remembers who it
was that turned the tide of battle at 12
o'clock on the night of November 4,
1890, when the indications were favor
able to Delamater's election and the Re
publicans were parading in great glee
through the streets of Philadelphia. At
that hour the returns from the anthra
cite counties were announced, and, al
though incomplete then, they gave a ma
jority of over 11,000 for Robert E. Patti
son, making his election an assured fact.
As the tidings flashed out from one
bulletin to another along Chestnut Street
the thousands of anxious voters who
were waiting for a decisive report sent
up a shout of joy that resembled peals
of thunder. "The miners did it!" was
the cry for the remainder of that night,
and the miners will do it again. They
were true to their grand old common
wealth last November and will not turn
traitors in the present battle.
Frocland'H Meeting.
The political campaign lias been un
usually quiet in this section, but the
meeting of Saturday evening next at the
Opera House promises to awaken the
voters. The county candidates have
been in the lower end all this week,
holding mass meetings at every available
point, and rousing people tip to the ques
tions they will soon be called upon to
decide. They will finish their labors in
the Fourth District with the demonstra
tion here, at which the following speak
ers will be present: Hon. John Lynch,
John M. Garman, John S. Harding, John
T. Lenahan, J.C.Wiegand, Lee Stanton,
Senator Hines and others. Speaking
will commence at 7.30. Voters of every
political belief are cordially invited. The
officers of the meeting are as follows:
Chairman, John Brady; Secretary, John
p. Herron; Vice Presidents, Owen Fritz
inger, T. Campbell, Matt. Sieger, Daniel
Dauhert, A. J. Thrash, Hugh Malloy,
Jas. Mcllugh, Soloman Bachert, Jas. J.
Malloy, A. Goeppert, A. Rudewick.Wm.
F. Boyle, I!. McLaughlin and M. Halpin.
To Organize a Clioir.
At an early date Prof. W. Rhys Her
bert will organize a Welsh choir of 250
voices. The Hingcrs will he from Hazle
ton, Freeland, Audenried, Muhanoy City
and Shenandoah. On March 17 the
choir will go to Wilkes-Barre and com
pete for the SSOO prize offered at the
Cambro-American Eisteddfod to be held
in that city. There is not another sec
tion in the State where so many talented
Welsh singers can be brought together,
and the proposed new choir will be made
up of none hut the very best vocalists.
Prof. Herbert is a man who knows how
to get a choir together and under his
training the choir will no doubt bring
home the laurels from Wilkes-Barre.—■

On tlie .Saratoga.
The Pennsylvania Schoolship Saratoga
returned recently to Philadelphia from
a three months' cruise, and on Tuesday
Chas. Ilaganey, who was appointed by
Hon. Wm. R. Jeffrey as the representa
tive of this district, left for Philadelphia
to take a position on board the vessel.
When the appointment was made last
June it was too late to prepare and pass
examination in time to accompany the
Saratoga, hence the delay. The next
voyage will he commenced in January,
and as the young man lias had consider
able experience already on the water be
will be found equal to any of the ship's
complement. Tlie term of service is
three years. A dispatch from Mr.
Haganey last evening states that he
passed examination O. K., and was
ordered to report on Monday.
Till. Evening's Flay.
"An Irishman's Luck" is a musical
farce comedy, written by the well-known
author, Will H. Powers, and has never
yet failed to keep an audience in good
humor. The company which will present
it at the Opera House this evening is one
of competent comedians, selected solely
for their ability to do justice to the
characters they represent. Clever dan
cers and pleasing vocalists will entertain
the audience between the numerous
funny saying and laughable situations of
the play. The Emerald Quartette, which
this company has secured at great ex
pense, is one of the finest collection of
singers traveling this season. All the
topical songs and latest stage specialties
will he introduced during the evening,
and if it is a hearty laugh you want it
can be found in "A Irish an'- Luck."
FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1891.
DRAMATIC COMPANY.
Freeland Amateurs to Appcur at tile
Opera House on November 11.
The movement to organize a dramatic
company composed of local talent has
been successful, and the organization has
commenced rehearsing for its first public
appearance, which will be at the Free
land Opera House on the evening of No
vember 11. The members of the com
pany have been selected by Rev. F. I'.
McNally, through whose efforts it was
organized, and who is also acting as in
structor. The latter states that the com
pany has already attained a degree of
proficiency that is surprising, consider
ing the short time since rehearsing be
gan, and confidently expects to present
before the people of Freeland a company
of well-trained actors on the opening
night. "The Danger Signal," a two-act
drama by T. S. Denison, of Chicago, will
be the first production, and is to be given
for the benefit of the St. Patrick's Bene
ficial Society. The following is a brief
synopsis of the play:
Mr. Norman had in early life succeed
ed by questionable means in obtaining a
colonelcy which Enfield would otherwise
have obtained. To make amends Nor
man afterward has Williamson, alias
Enfield, appointed captain of the steamer
"Northern Belle," which is wrecked.
Norman, who thinks Williamson wreck
ed the vessel intentionally, had him ar
rested, and Williamson flees from justice,
he had at the time of the wreck rescued
Stella, who is really Norman's daughter,
and left her at an obscure place on the
Great Lakes. He afterward takes her
with him to Bald Point, where he makes
a living by keeping summer boarders,
fishing, etc. The wreck of the vessel
and loss of many lives, together with his
wrongs, gradually prey upon Enfield's
mind till Stella fears insanity. Mother
Foresight knows his secret. Chester
Norman is on the Lake Survey and be
comes acquainted with the Enlields.
Charles Norman, his foster father, calls
to see him and is recognized by Enfield.
He and Dr. Valerian, who is a pretty
thorough knave, ullow Norman to depart
in a small boat with a squall coming on.
Mother Foresight gives the alarm and
Norman is saved.
In the second act Enfield plots to
throw Norman over a cliff with the tacit
acquiescence of Valerian. Mother Fore
sight again frustrates their plan and the
whole denouement is precipitated. En
field's whole soul is now possessed by
the desire for revenge. In the scene
where he meditates for a brief time, al
lowing Stella to marry Chester Norman,
her own brother, as he supposes him,
the opportunity for acting is very fine.
Persimmon and Pat afford unlimited
fun. The characters are very evenly
balanced, and, it is stated, there is not
an unimportant part in the play.
The cast is composed of the following:
Chas. Norman M. J. Gondii
Ivnthdd, alias Williamson John O'Neil
Chester Norman J. 11. liauhm
Dr. Valerian Jas. F. Sweeney
Peter Bullock \n<ii. u \iv.\ nil *.

Persimmon Sandy Slattery

Mother Foresight Cassie Furey
Miss Angle Hose Carr
N orah Cassie Hoy le
Tickets for tho entertainment are being
sold by a committee of the society at 25
cents each. They meet with a ready
sale, both on account of a desire to give
the new company a rousing reception
and because of the society to be bene
fitted, which for almost twenty years
has been quietly pursuing its work of
benevolence and charity. The indica
tions are that the capacity of the Opera
House will be taxed to its utmost that
evening, and St. Ann's Dramatic Com
pany will receive a cordial greeting.
Arrangements are being made to sell
reserved seats at 10 cents extra.
A Company of Fun-Mukers.
Reno and Ford's Comedians in "Joshua
Simpkins," one of the most laughable
plays before the public, will appear at
the Freeland Opera House, Friday even
ing, October 10. The management have
aimed at the highest pinnacle of the
true Yankee comedy, and believe they
have succeeded in reaching that end.
Plot, story and dramatic consistency
have not been sacrificed for mere horse
play and meaningless situations, but are
based on facts in connection with Down
East Yankee life, which, portrayed in
its purity, is funny enough in itself to
bring down the house at any time. The
east is composed of ladies and gentlemen
who have been selected with reference
to a strong rendition of the parts assign
ed them. They carry a fine band and
orchestra. The latter is very highly
spoken of wherever they have appeared.
Reserved seats can now be secured at
Ferry & Christy's.
Simmons' Way of Flaying Hall.
Jeanesville Club played at Catasauqua
on the 3d inßt., and here is what the
Valley Record, says of them, which is a
repetition of what occurred in Freeland
on September 5: The game was one of the
meanest that has been played here this
season. Simmons, the catcher of the
visiting team, is a kicker from the word
go, and his conduct was anything but
gentlemanly. In the seventh inning the
home team began to brace up and made
some telling plays, and it was evident
that the game would end in their favor.
This was too much for Simmons to
swollow, and lie foolishly began to waste
all the time possible as darkness was
rapidly approaching, and in that way
thought sure to win the game, and
furthermore refused to play out the
inning. But the home team was on to
his tricks and would not stand any such
nonsense, and the game was called and
declared in favor of Catasauqua by a
score of 9to 0. Simmons was hissed by
the audience for his unmanly conduct.
The rest of the club, however, behaved
like gentlemen and urged Simmons to
play out the inning, but it was no go,
and the result was the club lost their
guarantee money, as Manager Albert,
under circumstances, positively refused
to pay the same.
Lehighton and Catasauqua Clubs play
ed at the former place on Saturday. The
batteries were: Lehighton, Freeman
and Zellar, of Wilkes-Barre; Catasauqua,
Stivetts, of Ashland, and Goodhart, of
Reading. With the score Itoo in favor
of Catasauqua at the end of the seventh
inning Stivetts refused to play, claiming
darkness, and the game was awarded to
Lehighton, 9 to 0.
Tlie Phillies played at Tamaqua on
Friday and defeated the local club, 13 to
9. Eleven bits were made off K" md
eight off Gormley. They also defeated
Pottsvilie the next day, 18 to i

Saturday's Celebration.
The observance of Father Mathew's

zerne was a grand success. The parade,
in appearance and numbers, fulfilled ex
pectations, the marching and general
deportment of the societies being verv
good. Exclusive of the music, which
consisted of three bands and five drum
corps, there were 1038 men and boys
in line. At the Firemen's Park Hon. E.
B. Coxe, John Brady and Father Mc-
Nally delivered appropriate addresses.
During the day the town was well filled
with visitors. In the afternoon and
evening the local societies held their
picnic, which was the largest ever con
ducted in Freeland. One of the princi
pal events of the day and one that occa
sioned much surprise was the presenta
tion of a valuable gold cross to Mr. Coxe
by D. J. McCarthy. The recipient ac
knowledged the gilt in a kind reply.

The situation of the coal trade has not
changed materially since our last report.
There is not much business doing at the
October circular prices, and the anthra

which ruled prior to September 1.
The total amount of anthracite coal

"Segars must be sold to the customers
