FREELAND TRIBUNE. VOL. IV. No. 41. THEY WANT GEN.LILLY. Fourth District Republicans Sup port the Operator. DELEGATES FEEL SORRY BECAUSE PARDEE IS DEAD—RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED THAT ARE LAUGHED AT BY PEOPLE OP BOTH PARTIES. The Republicans of the Fourth Legis lative District met at Hazieton 011 Mon day for the purpose of electing a de egate to the State Convention. H. E.Sweeney, of Drifton. was elected chairman, ami W. E. Weigand, of Jeanesville, secre tary. The following were delegates from the North Side: John M. Powell. Free land; George Kugler, Sandy Run; Alfred Widdick, Drifton; Robert Newton, Jed do, and 11. E. Sweeney, Drifton. There were only two candidates nominated, T D. Jones, of Hazieton, and William 8. Leib, of Harleigh. The latter was elect ed by a vote of 13 to 11. The delegate goes instructed lor Harrison. The committee on resolutions made their report, which was accepted. After commending various Republican officials and paying their respects to Democrats in general the delegates say: Resolved, That this convention believes that it voices the feelings und the sentiments of the great mass of the Republican voters when it i mourns the loss to the ~tate of Ario Pardee, of Hazieton, a man who wus essentially of the common people, whose business genius built up and developed tills section of the State, whose word was his bond und who added to the glory of Republicanism by a loyal udlierence to the principles of ihat party since its birth. Resolved, That Generul William 11. Lilly de serves the support of every Republican in his canvass for the nomination as Cougressuiau-at large. Resolved, That wc view witli great concern th • action of the coal operutors in the anthra cite region in disregarding the semi-monthly puy law, und as ii is of vital importance that no class of our people shall tie permitted to set at dotluncc the law of the land, us their action would establish a precedent that all good citi zens deplore, therefore wo urge upon all people interested exact compliance with the two weeks' bill us a measure of justice due the working men. The first two paragraphs show what a corporation siave the Republican party of this district is, and the weak utteinpt in the last to throw a bone to the label ing element is ail insult to workingmen. All they care about the semi-monthly pay is not worth mentioning. If they were in earnest and in sympathy with the resolution on that subject they could not lend their aid to the Congressional aspirations of General Lilly, w ho is one of the violators of that law. But a Re publican set of resolutions is never in tended to be taken seriously and the delegates had to continue the usual cus tom of making a laughing stock of them selves by adopting such inconsistent nonsense. Their splutterings over dead and living coal operators is too ridiculous for anything. The other districts of the county elect ed the following men to go to Harris bnrfl: First, Hon. Morgan B. William ami Arnold Bertels, of Wilkes-Barre; second, E. A. Cray, of Pittston, ami Crawford Harvey,of Har\eyville; third. R 11. Meyer, of Naiiticnke, and Evan R. Morgan, of Plymouth; fifth, YV B Evans, of Pittston; sixth, Dr. R. B. Brumlage, of Coiiygham. The Republican County Convention was held at Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday to elect two delegates to the National Re publican Convention. There were four nominations, W J Scott, Hon. George W. Shonk, Hon. M B. Hughes and C. J. Barrett. Mr. Shonk was elected by acclamation. The vote for the second delegate was: Sco't, 85; Barrett, 29. Hughes, 20. Isaac P. Hand was elected substitute to Mr. Shonk and Win. F Adams, of Beaver Brook, to Mr. Scott. President Harrison was indorsed ami the delegates were instructed fur him Matt Quay was commended and Con gressman Shonk's course in Congress was approved. In Memory of a Welsh Composer. A meeting of prominent Philadel pliians was held in that city the other evening to arrange for the lidding of a festival, the proceeds thereof to he a part subscription towards the erection of the monument in memory of the cele brated elsh musical composer, (J wily m Gwent, whose real name was William A. Williams The movement is well under way in the Wyoming Valley, where the monument is to ht< erected, and the pro jectors have assurances ot support from all sections of the country. The history of this man, famed as a composer of giees ami songs that have achieved widespread popularity, is of in terest. Born in Tredegar, Monmouth shire, in Southern Wales, July, 1835, at a youthful age he disclosed a marked taste for music,evidenced by he compo sition of songs As he grew in years his ability asserted itself, and to such a de gree that his country men were quick to recognize his talents. His songs and other compositions were eagerly sought after and g veil public representation, with successful results. Determined to come to this country, Mr. Gwent quitted Wales and arrived at Philadelphia on July 3. 1872, repairing to Wilkes-Barre, and taking up his resi dence there. Here again he became dis tinguished by new compositions, rapidly succeeding each other. Among his best known works are "T ie Brook," "The Summer" and "The Bells," all remark able in their line, and given at more than a few eisteddfods. At a celebra tion of this character given in Philadel phia during the Centennial. "The Slim mer" was sung by chorus of 1500. (Twent continued to resile at Wilkes- Barre, whence his fame spread abroad, and where the people honored him In 1870. however, he took up his abode at Plymouth, and, besides composing, di rected several orchestras in the perform ance of his own music, which he arrang- Ed forstiingand brass instruments. He : died there on July 3, 1891, much lament ed. His remains were buried at Wilkes j Bar re. What will undoubtedly add to the ex tensive reputation of the lute Mr. Gwent will be the production of several of his compositions at the World's Fair, in 1893. These will he given in competition, and it is announced ihat from $39,000 to S4O, 000 will be distributed in prizes. Observe the Fish Law*. All persons desiring to promote the in crease of fish in this locality, will bear in mind that it is important that the laws providing for a close season will be strict | ly observed, so that the fish may have ! time to spawn, and thus provide for con tinuance of the natural supply, without which the waters will soon become de pleted. It is also well to hear in mind j that there is an association here that will punish as severely as possible any person found violating the lish laws.

A lengthy opinion was filed on Tues day in the ease of Dooliltle vs. County Treasurer MeGroarty, it being on the question of w belli* r the liquor dealer* of llazleton shall pay SSOO for their liquor lieenses or $15(1, it being in fact a question as to llazleton being a city or a borough. Judges l.yneli and Woodward contend that it is a city, deciding that the letters patent having been signed on December I), 18D1, the borough at once hecani • a city, and the liquor dealers will have to pay SSOO. Judge Rice disagrees on that point, however, and in a still more lengthy opinion he decides that the liquor men should pay only $l5O. lie argues that the charter of the bor otigh, according to a reservation of the State laws, runs out on the first Monday in April succeeding the third Tuesday in Tehruary, on which city officials are elected and consequently llazleton is not a city until the officials elected take their seats. Judge Rice being i the minority, Attorney G. L Ilulsey acting lor Do little will take the case to the Supreme Court, and a book is already being prepared. The Latest Swindle. Here is another very clever swindle which is being practiced by sharpers all over the country. A man puts in an ap pearance, seeks the proprietor of the 1 store, and informs him that he is seek- ! ing for rare coins, passing him a list of specimens and their alleged value He' also asks the interested proprietors to i keep an eye out, and should he get hold ot any keep them for him. Soon after another party strolls around, buys a cigar or some other article, ami exhibits a number of coins with the remark that they are pocket pieces. On consulting his list the proprietor finds they are marked $45 each. Here lie will see an opportunity for speculation, and after dickering, the second party sells him the pieces. Of course, number one never shows up, ami the coins are worth no more than their face value. This is now being worked all over the State. Three New Doctors.

FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, MARCH 31, 1892. A COAL KING DEAD. Ario Pardee Passes Away Sud denly in Florida. j THE HEAD OF ONE OF THE LARGEST FIRMS IN THE A NTH RACITF RE GION IS LAID AT REST—BRIEF SKETCH OF HIS LIFE. | Ario Pardee, Hazleton's great coal I operator and hanker, died on Saturday I at Ruck Lodge, Florida, at the age of 81 ; He was one of the pioneers of the an j thracite region, and had amassed several j millions as a coal operator. He was also j largely interested in the Lehigh Valley I I Railroad. Mr. Pardee was born in Chatham, N. Y., November 19, 1810. He received a common school education and then turned his attention to engineering. His first work was on the construction of the Delaware and Raritan Canal, in New Jersey, during 1830-33, after which he came to Pennsylvania and had charge of an engineering corps running the line for the Beaver Meadow Railroad. In 18315 he began the Hazieton Railroad, and, settling there in 1840, opened coal mines- which proved exceedingly valu able. In 1848 he built a gravity railroad to Penn Haven, a distance of 14 miles, as an outlet for the product of these mines, but in 1854 the Lehigh Valley Railroad was opened, which, with its improved facilities, caused the abandon ment of the old road in 1800. Sub sequently he became interested in iron manufacture, and in 1888 owned blast furnaces at various localities in New York, New Jersey, Virginia and Ten nessee. At the beginning of the civil war, in 1801, lie filled out a military company for the national service at his own ex pense, Willi which liis eldest son, Ario Pardee, Jr., served, und attained the brevet rank of brigadier general on January 12, 1800. Air. Pardee became interested in Lafayette College in 1804, and through the influence of William C. Called, then President, of the college, he gave $20,000 for the endowment ola prulessursliip. lie soon increased his gift, untn in 1809 it amounted to $200,000, and upon this Oasis was first established a new curriculum of scientific and technical studies. A new building being needed, Mr. Pardee, for litis purpose, made a further gilt of $250,000, to which he afterwards added $5u,000 for its scientific equip ment, thus increasing his donations to sooo,ooo. The building was erected and called Pardee Hall in ins honor. All. Pardee was a director of several railroads, including the Lehigh Valley, and was president of the State board tnat has Hie oversight and control of the second geological survey of Pennsylva nia. He was a Presidential elector in 187(5. Ario Pardee was first married to a Miss Bessie Jacobs, of Butler Valley. Her children are General Ario Pardee, Jr., and Calvin Pardee, of Germautown; Alice, who married Erastus Earle, of Philadelphia, and Ella, who died in Paris. 11 is second wife w as Miss Annie Robin son, of Bioonisburg, and iier children are Israel Pardee, Stanhope, N. J.; Barton Pardee, Lock Haven; Frank Pardee, Misses Edith and Gertrude Pardee, llazleton; Mrs. L. H. Allison, Port Car bon, and Mrs. A. H. Van Wickle. ♦•The Roadway of Life." As a poet, Sam. W. Boyd, of the Wilkes-Barre Newsdealer, is making a record for himself that is only equalled by his reputation as an editorial writer. Ills latest sung, "The Roadway of Life," is certainly better than many that are palmed oil upon the public as something extra by more famous poets. It is set to a pretty and popular air by Ed. C. Holey, and w ill besung in Dan llart's new play, "Underground," which opens next Au gust in New York. "I'll Be Back Some Day to Yuu" and "The Roadway of Lite" are two songs which Mr. Boyd should feel proud of being the author. Below are the words of his latest: He good und kind to yourself, my girl, As y.u travel the roadway of life; Its pitfalls and snares you must carefully shun, its perils, its crosses and strife Henieinber thut sunshine will not always beam O'er your puthway, but do not forget Thut uftcr all trluls and troubles have ceuscd There is happiness still to be met. CHORUS. Then keep up your heart and your courage, my dear, Old Time will right all things, don't fret; The bright sun will shine after elouds puss away, And bring you sweet happiness yet. Be good und kind to yourself, my girl. Let your voice and your temper be sweet; Have a kind word for all whom you meet on the way, And a smile for ail friends that you greet. Many things will, no doubt, cause you sorrow uud pain. In your Journey through life, but don't fret; Let >our heart be assured that behind the durk clouds You'll tlnd sunshine und huppiness yet. Be good and kind to yourself, my girl. Keep your heart pure uud free from alloy; Make the most of the innocent pleasures of life, And uv- id ull the cares that annoy. Bright youth, witli its gladno-s, will flourish And old Time write his wrinkles, don't lret; But the love and bright pleusure of sunny old age Will be yours with sweet huppiness yet An Klopeiner.t Fad. An elopement epidemic has broken out in Hcrunton, beginning about ten days ago. It baa continued up to the present, during which time five promin ent couples have disappeared in the night, four of tliera going to Binghatn ton, the other seeking a marrying clergy man in New York City. The first to go were Adelbert Houck and Mary Penry, who were wedded in Binghamton. A startling development followed the announcement of this marriage. When too late, Miss Penry learned that flurk had two other wives living, and the un fortunate girl returned to Seranion bro ken-hearted. John Perry and Lettie Teets were the next to hie themselves at Binghamton. Perry was a well-known young business man and she was a clerk "in a dry goods establishment. She was very young and her father died only two months ago, her mother objected to an early marriage and the young couple took the matter imo their own hands. Then Robert Robinson, son of a wealthy brewer, eloped with Maggie Ilaag, and they were united in the Parlor City. They were well received upon their return and are living happy now. Thomas P. Duffy and Emily Armbrust, who had contracted a passion for each other, which her mother opposed, next thought to keep in fashion, so tin y went to New York to get the ceremony per formed. They have not yet returned and are still unforgiven. Both are mem bers of families prominent in the busi ness community. Tuesday morning the announcement was made that Will N. Smith and Laura Reeae hud eloped to Bingbamtnn and were married, and there has been a storm in the Keese househuld since that day. Scrantun clergymen and Scranton mothers are protesting vigorously against this disastrous elopement lad. Game Club Meeting. A special meeting of the Upper Lehigh j and Freeland Game und Sisli Protective ] Club was held Monday evening in the Young Men's Hall. The meeting was i largely attended by hunters ami Usher-! men of Freeland, Upper Lehigh, Eckley j I and South Heherton. It was unant- ; niously agreed by all present to keep 1 | their hunting dogs out of the woods 1 during the mouths of April, May, June and July, and we respectfully ask all j hunters ami persons keeping dogs to have them chained during these months, j as dogs running on the hunting grounds j when the game is young destroy a great number. The directors reported having i killed 15 weasels during the month.

It was also agreed to pay $lO to any person giving informa tion that will lead to the arrest and con vietion.of any person or persons killing, or having in their possession after being killed any brook trout before April 15 ot after July 15. The directors ot the club j were instructed lo invite the Hazleton hunters ami fishermen toco-operate with the Upper Lehigh ami Freeland Club to i protect and slock game and fish.

J FREELANI) TO HAVE THE BEST CLUB | THE TOWN AND REGION CAN PRO DUCE—ENCOURAGING RESPONSE TO THE FIRST APPEAL. The Freeland Base Ball Association has organized for tlie coming season, j and preparations are under way to place before the public this summer the I strongest team that can be gathered together in the region. Work will be commenced at once upon the park in the ' way of repairing the fence, grand stand, 1 etc., and clearing off the ground. A committee was selected to cad upon the business men and citizens of town fori contributions, and the appeal has been 1 met everywhere with favor and en couragement. Although the town has ; not yet been wholly canvassed the money received already indicates that the public is with the association in the effort to j keep alive the national game. The soliciting committee states they were ; cordially welcomed by all upon whom they have so far called, and the associa tion can have every reason to believe that the public is with them. That this is a sporting town goes without saying, and the people here are determined to have a club that will hold Freeland's time-honored position as the home of the amateur champions of the anthra cite coal Holds.
