FREELAND PASTORS HAVE AR RANGED APPROPRIATE CELEBRA TIONS—SUN DAY SCHOOLS WILL RE * REMEMBERED AS USUAL. Christmas Day is one of the principal of all the holidays on the calendar for church-going people. Its observance is not confined to any certain denomina tion, but is universal throughout the I Christian world. Appropriate services will be held in nearly all the churches of Freeland, and in many the Sunday ' Schools will also have a pleasant time. ' The distribution of gifts and presents will form a leading feature in making ~ the day one of rejoicing for the children. These will be held in the majority of the churches this evening, and the pro grammes of the entertainments are very interesting. The time and character of the services for to-morrow in some of the churches is as follows : At St. Kasimer's Polish Catholic Church on Ridge Street, below Luzerne, mass will be read by the pastor, Rev. Jos. Mazotas, at (J and 8 A. M. Rev. E. D. Miller, pastor of St. John's Reformed Church, Washington and Chestnut Streets, will preach in German at 10 A. M. The Sunday School will have exercises this evening at 7 o'clock. „ St. James' Protestant Episcopal Chapel, Washington ami South Streets, will hold its Christmas services at 7 I'. M., under j direction of Rev. J. \V. Burras. Sun day School festival this afternoon at J ; o'clock. Owing to the congregation of St. Peter and Paul's Hungarian Lutheran Church, Washington Street, being unable to se cure a pastor there will he no services at that church to-morrow.

Sun day School at 10 A. M. Unclaimed I.and in Luzerne. During the twelve months ending De cember 1 there were tiled with the Secretary of Internal Affairs some very important claims for land, said to have been hitherto unsurveyed and unsold by the Commonwealth. There were seventy eight of these applications, and the amount of property to which they lay claim aggregates (5217 acres. Some >f the laud is valuable, being situated in coal regions or along great commercial highways. These claims are heard and adjudicated by the Board of Property. Some applications have been refused on account of land being found to have been previously appropriated, while a large number of the applications are still pending. Luzerne County is well rep resented on the list, having nine applica tions which call for 387 acres. Sullivan nt tlie Capital. The Washington Star of October 27, ; 1891, says: There was fun galore at the ; Bijou Theatre last night and Joseph J. j Sullivan, that side-splitting Irish come dian, kept the audience in one continual laugh. The play presented was a musi cal comedy-drama, entitled "Black Thorn," and from the applause that j followed each act it was plain to see that the audience appreciated the perform- j ance. The play abounds in startling situations and realistic tableaux. As i Denny Dolan, the whole souled Irish man, Joseph Sullivan shared the honors of the evening with little Helen Martell, a child actress of considerable ability. 1 The performance is interspersed with songs and dances. The remainder of the company was good and the scenery ■ ex ellent and extensive. Huxleton's Rlu/.e. About 4 o'clock Tuesday morning a fire broke out in the building occupied by Piatt & Co. on Broad Street, liazle- , ton, and it was three hours before the j llames were under control. A high wind was blowing and for some time there was danger of the flames spreading over ' the whole block, owing to the scarcity of water. The stock of Piatt A Co. was totally destroyed and the First National Bank building damaged. There was no insurance on the building, which was owned by Charles Brill, the night watch man of the bank. The losses are : Piatt & Co., $20,000, insurance, $17,000; First National Bank, furniture and fixtures, ! s3i)oo, insured; Charles Brill, building, j $22,000, no insurance. The hank has opened an ofliee on Wyoming Street. Fair ami Festival.

EACH SIDE TOOK TWO STRAIGHT ! ! BATTLES, BUT UPPER LEHIGH i CAPTURED THE LAST—LIVELY BET ! TING AND A LARGE CROWD. | Over two hundred prominent sporting j men of Lower Luzerne and Carbon ; Counties paid twenty-five cents each last , j night to witness the battle between ! Upper Lehigh and Drifton birds. The I main was held in the dance hall of a saloon near town, and consisted of five ; battles. Delegations were present from | Lansford, Nesquehoning, Summit Hill, j White Ilaven, Ilazleton and all the ; smaller towns around Freeland. The ; contest was held without the slightest friction of any kind and passed off with out the wrangling and hard feeling that | usually occur at such scenes. I The purse was S2OO, which was held |by a South Heberton citizen. The judge was from Hazleton, and in the pit | besides him were two handlers and two I heelers, Upper Lehigh, Jeddo ann Pitts- I burg furnishing these. The crowd had gathered at an early hour, but very little | betting was done until the pit and other j necessary fixtures were arranged. | Upper Lehigh won the toss on weight j I and choose to begin with the light birds i ! first. It was believed their roosters were j stronger on this point, and the betting opened at a lively gait. At five minutes of twelve the birds for the first battle were placed in the pit and they tipped , the scales at four pounds. The fighting was slow for awhile, but the little fel | lows warmed up to their work later on and a good straight kick laid Drifton out on the carpet. j Nothing daunted by the loss the men j from Coxe's domain put up their cash | again for the second battle, which was j fought between two pretty members of ; the poultry family, weighing four pounds : four ounces each. These got down to ! business at once and this was the short ' est battle of the main. Drifton came : out as in the proceeding fight, i The weight of the birds for the nextj round was four pounds fourteen ounces, ■ and with the increase also rose the spirits of the backers. Upper Lehigh was well fixed after their two victories and to win ; would give them the main. Money was shoved out pretty strong during the in- J i ter miss ion, but no odds were offered at : any time (luring the evening. Another sharp and short contest was this, and ended with Upper Lehigh carrying out; ! its first dead bird. Battle No. 4 was between roosters weighing five pounds six ounces, and two line specimens they were. After i exchanging introductions they stood a moment like pugilists sizing one another up. Then both took a rush and met together with a kick. For one minute j ; it was hammer and tongs, but after the first count Upper Lehigh weakened 1 slightly. Again they tried and after some hot kicking Upper Lehigh went down, tieing the main. The next was the last and deciding battle, and the birds weighed in at six ; pounds two ounces. Drifton was now confident, since the heavy-weights were ! ; looked upon as their finest birds. The ! betting was almost entirely in their i favor, and after the birds reached the pit it was impossible to get takers for their money. The first kick, however, stunned the Drifton bird, and although j he made a gallant fight to the end | Upper Lehigh's representative was too I strong. At fifteen minutes of two this morning he turned on his back and Upper Lehigh had won the great main. Tenth Annual Rail. I i On Thursday evening next, New ; I Year's Eve, St. Ann's Pioneer Corps will j hold its tenth annual ball at the Opera , I House. This organization has achieved I a well-earned reputation for providing ; hall-goers and its friends with unlimited ! ! amusement when it comes before the ! | public, and the tenth is going to be up ; to_ the high standard heretofore main- j : t lined. The mu-ie will he supplied by Gillespie's Orchestra, which has been! I strengthened considerably for the occa- I H'UUI. Refreshments and eatables will |he on sale as usual. The check and j toilet rooms will he in charge of com ! potent parties, and all other con | veniences provided. One of the features I of the hail will be the presentation to I each lady of a magnificent souvenir pro gramme. The design is original and was made expressly for the evening. The Corps invites everybody to assist in making the tenth annual a grand sue- i cess. No Christ mas for This Unfortunate. j About 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon a. Pole named Anthony Potzkosky, work i ing in No. 2 Drifton, was caught between j a prop and a car which he was running. , ! The life was instantly squeezed out of | I the unfortunate man, and he was re- ; moved to liis residence in town. Ho ; was twenty-seven years of age and un married. The remains were placed in j charge of Undertaker McNulty and the funeral will beheld to-morrow afternoon. Interment at St. Ann's Cemetery.
