FREELAND TRIBUNE. VOL. IV. No. 43. FOH ELECTRIC LIGHT. Nearly SIO,OOO Worth of Stock Taken This Week. • ELECTRIC LIGHTS AND PROBAHLY ELECTRIC CARS WILL SOON BE HERE-FREELAND'S PROGRESSIVE SPIRIT IS HUMMING. The question of resurrecting the elec tric light plant, and also establishing an electric street railway to run from Free land to the surrounding towns, has been quietly talked of for the past few weeks, and a meeting of business men and others was held on Thursday evening. A committee was appointed to make a canvas of the town in order to see how such a project would be received bv the people, and to call a meeting of all in terested on Monday evening at Dusheck's Hotel. The above plan was carried out and the last meeting organized by electing William Williamson as chairman, Edward Kelioe, secretary and W. J. Eckert, treasurer. Those present thought it advisable to push the electric light in preference to the railway, as when the former is once more started it would he considerably easier to increase the capi tal stock to build the road. The com mittee reported that the following persons had subscribed to the amount of stock opposite their names, the shares being placed at $25 each : Thos. Blrkbeck... .SIOOO Mrs. M. E.

Zemany was selected to look for a site upon which the plant could be located. Samuel B. Cressman, of Danville, the owner of the plant on Washington Street, stated ho would put it in good running order and sell it, to gether with the two lots, to the new company for SSOOO. The committee on location was notified to consider this offer, and to investigate Mr. Crewman's title to the property. Those present did not feel inclined to organize perma nently, and they adjourned to meet at Zemany's Hall on Monday evening, when the capital stock of the company will be decided upon. It will probably be placed at $12,000 or $15,000, divided into shares of $25 each. Gentlemen Who Will Sit in Judgment.

Inside everything will be fitted up in the neatest manner pos sible; the floor will be inclined and circle scats will be put in, which will make it one of the flneßt churches in Freeland. Killed by an Explosion of Gas. Thomas M. Williams, until recently a resident of Drifton, was instantly killed by an explosion of gas at Mahanoy City on Thursday. The remains were remov ed to his home in Drifton, and the funer al took place on Sunday afternoon. The interment was made in Freeland Cem etery, under the charge of Silver Wave Lodge, No. 242, Knights of Pythias, of which he was a member. Mr. Williams leaves a wife and four children. Removed to Lanrytown. Mrs. Konoskie, a Polish woman of Jedilo, became insane a week or two ago and was brought here on Tuesday for the purpose of taking her to Lanrytown. While waiting for Liveryman O'Donnell to get the team ready to take her away she made things decidedly interesting for her husband and another man who was taking care of her. White Haven's Annual Story. With the opening of every spring the little town of White Haven startles the country with an awful snake Btory. It ■never failß to be first in this respect, and the dispatch sent from there on Monday entitles it to the honors of the season. The following is what the report says: I While blasting rocks in the deep cut above White Ilaven, Michael Greening, a Lehigh Valley Railroad foreman, met with a thrilling experience. After firing a blast in a quarry he climbed upon the ledge of rocks to note the effect the shot had taken, when, to his horror, he found the shot had uncovered a den of huge black snakes, and before he could real ize his position he was surrounded by nearly one hundred snakes varying from three to seven feet in length. He had no chance to run and to jump down was impossible, as he was over 30 feet from the track. But Mike is possessed of a cool head and an abundance of pluck, and with nothing hut a small stick which he carried he attacked the snakes. Af ter 20 minutes of hard fighting he suc ceeded in getting down to the track after killing 47 of the snakes, the largest of which measured seven feet four inches. Freelnml and liazleton. A gentleman connected with a Scran ton newspaper recently made a tour of this section, and upon his return publish ed his views of the several towns through which he passed. Below is what he thought of Freeland, and, compared with the impression made upon linn by Hazleton, is certainly a compliment to our little city, although it comes from an impartial observer: Freeland Is a beautl- Hazleton has grown fill town, and bids lair to a considerable size in to be the rival of Hazle- the past twenty years; ton in the near futurj.'. but the improvements Unfortunately the bor- seem to have all been ough and township made back from the question, there as else- centre of the city.

Arlo Pardee's Estate. Ario Pardee, having died without a will, letters of administration were taken out by his son, Ario Pardee, Jr. He files a bond in the sum of 11,000,000 to cover the personal property. The en tire estate is supposed to he worth from $25,000,000 to $30,000,000. Several educa tional institutions expected handsome bequests, and the absence of a will makes the widow immensely rich. There are a Half dozen children by Mr. Pardee's first wife who have insti tuted most careful search for the will, hut to no effect. There are also about the same number of children by the sec ond wife. The filing of the letters tes tamentry require the several persons mentioned to unite on the bond to cover the personal estate. This is by far the largest bond ever required in the Luz erne County Register's office, and when the full value of the personal estate is approved the bond may, he increased to $30,000,000. Abandoning a Breaker. Preparations are being made at Upper Lehigh this lust few months to abandon one of the two breakers at that place. A large force of men are engaged mak ing a surface railroad from No. 2 to No. 4. When this is completed all the coal will be brought to No. 2, and No. 4 breaker will he a thing of the past. No. 2 breaker is one of the largest in the State; it has all the latest improvements for preparing coal and no doubt will he able to handle all that will he mined in Upper Lehigh in the future. But it is expected that the change will not he fa vorable to the large number of men and doys from Freeland, because the major ity of them work on the breaker that is to he abandoned. Whether they will be able to secure work at No. 2 when the change takes place is not known at present. To Hold a Convention. It has been decided to hold the bi annual State Convention of the Ancient Order of Hibernians, Board of America, at Wilkes-Barre. The session will com mence on Tuesday, June 14, and last the balance of the week. On June 16 a monster parade will be held by the different divisions from Luzerne, Lack awanna and Schuylkill Counties, and fully 15,000 people will be in line. This will he a big event and one of the largest held in years. Since the ruling of the Supreme Court that the true organization of the A. O. H. was the Board of Amer ica, the members of this Board have gone to work with renewed vigor in strengthen ing their order.— Newsdealer. The "Tribune" Buildittg.

NOTICES SIGNED "MANY CITIZENS" ARE POSTED CALLING UPON THE PEOPLE TO REMOVE THE GAR AAGK AND REFUSE. Notices have been posted throughout the Points calling upon the property- j owners of that section of the town to clean up their premises and remove all garbage and refuse which may be lying around. Ten days' time is given for com pliance with the order, which is sigued "Many Citizens." No one will deny j that there are some portions of the Points which should receive the attention of a | vigilance committee or some one with authority to enforce such an order. As the Points is the most conspicuous part of the town to strangers who arrive on the train the property-owners should, for their own benefit, make it as present able as possible to visitors, and they will, at the same time, be guarding against diseases which are liable to arise from the present condition of the place. Af ter the first hot wave strikes the town some portions of the Points are almost unbearable, and the citizens will confer a blessing upon the whole community if j they will obey the notices. A much more easier way to remedy the matter would be by having the en tire district annexed to the borough. The people of the Points could then have their say in improvements,and those who are negligent in sanitary matters would be compelled to have some respect for other folks. As it is now, it is almost impossible, except by coaxing or intim idation, to have some people take any interest in the welfare of the town. The Points has several progressive citizens, men who are willing to keep ! abreast of the times, and in conversation with some of them this week it was found they aie favorably inclin d, some even anxious, for annexation. It is be- I coming more apparent every day to the j residents of the whole town that the] greatest obstacle to Freeland's progress 1 is the present way of having two-thirds of the town in the township, without any j municipal government or any legal [ means of making the improvements that are necessary for such a large body of people. Coming Hack to the Fold. Since the first of the year the officers ! of District Assembly No. 87, Knights of I Labor, have reorganized five local assem blies which had lapsed since the strike of 1887-88. Two more applications for j the return of charters were received this ! week by the Master Workman from the miners in two towns on the liazleton side, and the work of solidifying the ranks is being carried 011 quietly and ef fectually. Many men who withdrew from the labor movement after the disastrous strike are returning to the fold, firmly convinced that is impossible to cope with the corporations of this section without a solid organization. When the strike ended D. A. 87 was overwhelmed with debts on every side. Thisainount reach ed far into the thousands, and many of the old leaders lost heart, thinking the D. A. could never extricate itself from the financial muddle in which it was situated. In the four years that have elapsed since then the men who have stuck to the old ship never ceased work to hold the district charter and to keep a spirit of hope, if not of activity, alive within their followers. In this they have been sucessful and District Assembly 87 is again freed from every cent of its debt. Its ranks are increasing every day, the meetings of the locals are well attended and the old-time enthusiam of 1880 is coming hack to the workingmen again. The Reading deal and the violations of semi-monthly pay law have aroused sev eral to their duty. Legislative Candidates. The Legislative light is coming to the front rapidly. Although it is nearly seven months until election day several of the candidates for the Democratic nomination have their delegates selected for a number of the polls, and an active canvas for support is now under way. Among the aspirants are reported the following from this end of the district: John Brady, Patrick Carey, J. D. Myers, Freeland; John J. McNclis, Condy O'Donnell, Drifton, and George Ripple, Sandy Valley. From the Hazleton side there will probaly be no less than five applicants for the honor. Win. R. Jef freys will receive the nomination from the Republicans, Momluy Evening's Hall. The annual Easter Monday evening ball of the St. Patrick's Cornet Band will be like all its predecessors—an event that the sporting folks cannot afford to miss. It will de the last ball until the end of May, and people who wish to en joy an excellent night must attend the Opera House Monday evening. Re freshments and eatables of all kinds will be there for those who wish to partake of them, aud the new check room will be opened for the safe keeping of hats, cloaks, etc. Every person attending the ball will pe presented with a neat programme, the dances of which are arranged in a manner to suit all. Sewers Will Start on Front Street. The members of council mot in special session last night at the council room I and took up the matter of starting the I sewer where it was left off last fall. A ! letter was read from Franz Mackl, stat ] ing that it would not be convenient for him to make the necessary survey at present. It was decided to continue the present grade on Front Street, and that I work on that street be begun on Mon -1 day, and the commissioner was instruct Ed to hire as many men as he could pos sibly obtain. The wages for teams was fixed at $4 per day for double team and a driver. The secretary was instructed to order the pipes from J. A. Hutchins it Co., Wyoming, this county. Com plaint was made that a portion of an out house projects on the alley between Front and Main Streets, on the property owned by Mrs. Win. Gilbbon. The sec retary was instructed to notify her to I have it removed. Notices were ordered I to he put up notifying all parties that on i j or about the first day of May the council i would be ready to clean up the alleys ! and remove all ashes, garbage, etc., but 1 I that hereafter such alleys must be kept j clean and free from ashes. The high ' ! constable was instructed to enforce the ! I ordinance prohibiting cattle running at ! j large. | What His Name Might Have Been. | John M. Coyne, in the Scranton Diocesan Record , gives to the memory of | Ario Pardee all it deserves in the follow- j ing: Ario Pardee, tho millionaire coal ] operator, was buried in liazleton the last day of March. On the day following there was nothing to indicate that such an important person had died at all. There were no signs of mourning visible and men in conversation with each other seemed to ignore the fact of tho death of j the man who made millions of dollars among them but gave nothing toward the endowment of educational or char itable institutions, which might in any j way benefit the poor people, who toiled I and labored that his hoards might be increased. Acting under a strange im pulse, one time, he gave to the Lafayette University, at Easton, $500,0(10. His name, through this, may he memoralized j for time hut it will he only the dry skel eton of a name that might he made | bright and lasting had he given half the amount to those who needed it—the poor wage-workers who had the greatest claim upon his sympathy, and who may never see the outside walls of Pardee Hall, even. Ario Pardee was kindly, courteous and familiar with his slaves: but he was, nevertheless, avaricious and grasping. Fireuien'H Convention. liazleton and Ilazletonians have be come so notoriously slow that the atmos phere of the town lias a Rip Van Winkle effect upon visitors to the so-called i "city," and in order to rescue the thousands of firemen who were to have paraded there next' fall from such a slcepv fate a meeting of the executive board of the State Association has been called to convene at Ilarrisburg to-mor-! row. The objections against going to I Hazleton are in from all sections of the State, and the next convention will proh- j ably he changed to Ilarrisburg, Allen town, Reading or some real city where the jolly fire laddies can meet in peace, j safe and secure from highwaymen and i caveins. Foster's Financial Affairs. Foster auditors began work upon the accounts of the township officials on March 14, and although they have labor ed steadily since their work is not' yet completed. On account of one of the I auditors, Frank Dever, being a school teacher, they discontinued the day work, j and meet only in the evenings. The 1 expense incurred in straightening out : the financial affairs of the township will | he greater than ever, and many of the taxpayers and citizens of the Points, South He her ton and Birvanton would be only glad of the opportunity to break away from Foster and bring these places 1 into the borough. Bevevino and Villalla. Frank Musantc, of Wilkes-Barre, says that he is a constant reader of the II Progrosno, an Italian paper, in which it \ is stated a few days ago that Bevevino and Villalla, the companions of Red- j Nosed Mike, have been tried in Italy ; and have been convicted, both being | found guilty. Bevevino was sentenced | to imprisonment for life, which means j to carry ball and chain, and Villalla was sentenced to 20 years. Arnold & K roll's Bock Beer.
