THAT "FOREIGN" FLAG.
A Society Banner Causes a
Little Breeze.
SOME THOUGHT IT WAS THE COLORS
OP THE CZAR OF RUSSIA—WHAT
THE MEN WHO CARRIED IT SAY
ON THE SUBJECT.
While on the way from the Greek
Church to the station on Sunday morn
ing to attend the dedication at Auden
ried a Hag was carried by St. Michael's
Greek Society that caused a ripple of
excitement among some of the people
who saw it. As the Greeks are generally
supposed to be natives of Russia a num
ber jumped at the conclusion that the
colors were Russian, and after the
train had departed several of them were
loud in their threats as to what action
should be taken in the matter. The flag
is one which lias been carried through
town on a number of occasions and up
to Sunday none of those who objected
had troubled themselves about what it
represented. That it is not the colors of
any foreign nation is a fact which any
schoolboy can tell at a glance, as the em
blem bears no more resemblance to the
flag of Russia or any other country than
the stars and stripe do to a piratical ban
ner.
Charles Dusheck, a prominent mem
ber of the society, was asked by a Tiu
liuNE representative to give an explana
tion for the benefit of the public, and lie
willingly complied by stating that the
Hag is nothing more or less than a society
flag, and is open at all times for the
inspection of any person who wishes to
examine it. lie describes it as follows:
It consists of blue silk and the inscrip
tions and emblems are of u light gilt,
fin one side is the name of the society,
date of organization, etc. On the reverse
at the upper right-hand and lower left
hand corners are American shields, on
the upper left-hand and lower right-hand
corners are Slavonian emblems. In the
centre is a picture of St. Michael, and
on the top of the pole is a large Ameri
can eagle, This is all the flag contains,
and there is nothing there against which
anyone could raiße any reasonable objec
tion.
Mr. Dilsheck says it is not necessary
for people to go to the members of the
society and quote the law upon the sub
ject, telling them the constitution de
clares that foreign flags may only he car
ried when preceded hy the American
flag. The Greeks and everybody else
knowß the constitution says nothing about
Hags of any kind, but they know enough
about inter-national customs that they
would not be true to their oaths of
American citi cisliip if they carried a
foreign flag witfiout having it preceded
hy the starry banner. However, as the
society never carried a foreign flag, and
as the members say they never will, the
folly of a few people is painfully plain.
It would bo better bad they made them
selves acquainted with the colors of the
different countries before indulging in
fiery curbstone speeches.
What seems to he the queer part of the
affair is that the persons who noticed this
"foreign Hag" did not go at once and
demand an explanation then and there.
A true American would without a mo
ment's hesitation, as there was ample
time given, the train being nearly an
hour late. Toskulk when duty demanded
courage and then gather a mob to receive
them when they returned is not Ameri
can. Mobs and patriots seldom truvel
together.
Weekly Coal Report.
The condition of the anthracite coal
trade has not changed materially since
our last report. There is a steady de
mand for the domestic sizes, and as the
output of the furr ace and other manu
facturing sizes is restricted as nearly as
possible to the actual requirements for
immediate consumption, there is no sur
plus stock accumulating worth mention
ing. The newly mined coal being for
warded to market is being well distri
buted, and there are sufficient orders for
coal in hand to take up the greater part
of the June allotment, which has been
fixed at 3,0(10,(XXI tons, though, it is be
lieved, at least half a million tons more
will be required, and, if it is, the addi
tional quantity will be produced. Tie
general sales agents met at New York
last week and agreed to advance prices
for Western shipment 25 cents per ton,
and an advance on chestnut size of 15
cents por ton was also ordered on coal
for shipment Eastward beyond the Capes.
The total amount of anthracite coal
sent to market for the week ending May
21 as reported by the several carrying
companies, was 850,795 tons, compared
with 790,790 tons in the corresponding
week last year, an increase of 95,999 tons.
The total amount of anthracite mined
thus far in the year of 1892 was 14,445,-
521 tons, compared with 13,383,310 tons
for the same period in 1891, an increase
of 1,002,311.
A Spook at Brlfton.
That portion of Drifton known as
"Shanty Hill" is worked to a pitch of ex
citement over the appearance of a mys
terious object in the dead hours of night,
according to the Standard. A number
of miners returning home on several oc
casions saw the object moving from one
place to another, some times with alight
and then again in the darkness, open
ing gates and shanty doors. One young
man followed it until 2 o'clock Saturday
morning, hut could not succeed in get
ting close enough to tell whether it was
man, woman or otherwise.
Fire Coin puny Meeting.
The members of the Citizens' Hose
Company met in regular session last
evening. Gilbert Smith, James Mc-
Nelis, Amos l'age and John J. McLaugh
lin were elected to membership. The
names of sixteen other young men were
proposed for membership and will be
acted on at the next regular meeting.
Bills were paid for cleaning hose, oil and
supplies, amounting to $18.81; also $5 for
teams for Memorial Bay parade. The
chief reported that the damage done to
the hose carriages at the last fire was re
paired, but that he had not received the
bill. lie stated that he had received $5
from Benhard Binn, of Birvanton, as a
donation towards the injury done the
hose carriages. A vote of thanks was
piuscd to Mr, Binn, and any other con
t dilutions will bo duly acknowledged.
An inviti t on was received from Wash
ington Camp No. 147, P. O. S. of A., of
Freeland, to parade on July 4. It was
accepted. The chiefs of the different
departments have agreed to meet soon
and begin a thorough system of instruc
tion to the men under their command.
The first practice will take place next
Thursday evening when it is expected
all who can do so will attend, A motion
was agreed to that all members who
have not as yet procured the shirt adopt
ed by the company do so on or before
July 4. The excursion committee will
meet next Monday evening.
The Ticket Gave It Away,
A Lehigh Valley trainman tells the
following Memorial Bay episode: That
evening a man got upon their train in a
very joyful condition, and, taking a seat
began shouting, singing and cursing in
a very unorthodox fashion. He had the
unlighted stump of a cigar in his mouth
and a ticket for Hazleton stuck in his
hat band, and vowed that he didn't care
a blankety blank "for everybody er no
body!" At last a clerical-looking old
gentleman who sat near him could stand
it no longer, and going over to him,
placed a hand upon his shoulder and
solemnly asked: "My friend, do you
know where you are going? You are
bound straight for hell." The inebriate
blinked foolishly at him for a moment
nnd then thickly ejaculated: "How do
you know it stranger?" Then reaching
up suddenly, he took the ticket from his
hat saying: "Oh, I see—the d d
ticket gave it away."
Special Council Meeting.
The sale of sewer bonds took place at
the council room on (Saturday evening.
Thirty bonds were sold at from 35 cents
to $1.50 above par, netting, principal and
premium, $3013.00. At the close of the
sale Attorney Hayes read the deed of
park which was presented by the Cross
Creek Coal Company, through Hon. E.
B. Coxe, to the borough. The president
appointed Owen Fritzinger, E. w. Butter
and James Williamson a committee to
draw up resolutions of thanks to be ten
dered to Mr. Coxe for his kindness.
The plot of ground consists of ten acres,
and its benefits will be appreciated in
the days when Freeland will be a city.
Another Large Untitling.
11. W. Fackh r, of Philadelphia, has
awarded a contract for the erection of a
three-story frame building on Centre
Street, above Luzerne. The structure
will have a frontage of 24 feet and will
be 52 feet deep. The lot is at present
occupied by a small one-story building,
and workmen began removing it this
morning. The building will be occupied
by Mr. Fackler, who is a manufacturer
of candy and choice confectionery. The
contractor states that it will be fitted up
throughout in the most improved manner
and will be quite an ornament to the
Points.
Dropped Ileail Ileliiml the liar.
While washing glasses in his saloon on
Birkbeck Street, South Heberton, on
Tuesday morning, Joseph Schochner
fell to the floor and instantly expired.
Death was caused by heart disease. The
deputy coroner viewed the body and de
cided that there was no necessity for an
inquest. The deceased was known
throughout the region, having worked
as a butcher for a number of years be
fore he started the saloon business. He
was aged 52 years, 2 months and 25 days.
The funeral takes place at 2 o'clock tliis

FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, JUNE 2, 1892.
CAUGHT IN THE NET.
Police Make Several Arrests
on Memorial Day.
BURGESS GALLAGHER INSISTS UPON
PRESERVING PEACE IN THIS BOR
OUGII ss(l IN FINES COLLECTED
IN ONE DAY.
From the moment the clouds began to
disappear on Monday until early Tues
day morning the town was thronged with
visitors from all the surrounding villages.
Besides the parade the attractions
were numerous enough to give
enjoyment to all. The base ball game,
the Tigers picnic, three Hungarian balls
and sixty-one saloons took good care of
the crowd, which was a jovial and good
natured gathering. Neverthless some of
the sight-seers met more friends than
they should, and the effects of sipping
the twenty-two kinds of beer which
Freeland keeps on tap were noticeable
in the latter part of the afternoon. In
the borough the throng was the greatest,
and Burgess Gallagher's force had its
hands full. The officers were lenient in
nearly every instance where their ser-
I vices were required, and if a man could
walk the chalk line and keep his mouth
closed he was allowed to depart unmo
lested.
A few, however, were in fighting trim,
and insisted upon trying to run the town
according to their rural notions of law
and order. The Snyder brothers, Hiram,
Walter and Albert, of Highland, who
figured in a shooting affray at Soutii
Ileberton last Christmas, raised a dis
turbance in a Front Street saloon. The
proprietor sent for the cops and the trio
was escorted to the lockup by Chief Ken
nedy and Officers Gallagher and Mc-
Laughlin. William Scholar of South
Heberton, objected to parting with the
Snyder boys and attempted to rescue
them. Olficer Jones took him along to
keep compauy with his friends.
An Upper Lehigh Hungarian was
dancing the can-can on Washington
Street and making himself obnoxious to
passers-by. He was furnished with free
lodging for the night, and two more of
his countrymen, who were found asleep
on Centre Street, were also taken to
the cooler. An individual from the
Points was the next to fall in the
clutches of the officers.
The offenders were given a hearing
on Tuesday, and after the burgess bad
disposed of some good advice he tined
them according to the charges. The
Snyders were taxed $lO each, Scholass6,
three Huns $5 each and the man from
the Points $5. After considering the
alternative, five days on bread and
water, they thought it best to pay the
fines, and the borough treasury was
swelled to the extent of SSO.
The Coat Combine's Extortions.
Tuesday's New A ork World contains the
following correspondence from Hazleton,
sent by a person signing himself "Vic
tim:"
We miners and others get to see
your paper sometimes, and we don't
agree with what the monopoly papers
say about your reports from the mines.
It's only too true, and they don't care to
know what happens in the miner's life.
Mend up one of your men and find out
how this deal of the Reading is helping
the miners. Investigate what the coal
companies make on powder alone—what
it costs them a keg, and what the miners
have to pay for it. A keg costs from $1
to $1.20 and iB sold for $2.75 a keg, and
the poor miner can't buy it from any
body but the company, for they won't
allow it, and he'd be discharged if he
kicked.
Yes, these are nice Christian gentlemen,
who give big sums to the poor and to the
hospitals and to build colleges, and they
get it by taking a profit of $1.75 and
mere on a thing which costs $1 to 1.25
and on which 25 cents would be a big
profit on the thousands of kegs they sell
every year, each one of them. Go for
them with your paper and shame them
and keep it up, for it will do more good
than striking.

Mine Accident at Mocunuqim.
A terrific explosion of gas occurred on
Tuesday morning in the West End Mine
at Mocanaqiia, near Shickshinny, by
which two men were instantly kil'o 1,
three fatally injured and five badly
wounded. The dead are: John Froth
eroo, inside foreman, aged 45, leaves a
wife and six children; John Walters, la
borer, aged 21, single. The fatally in
jured are: Ilenry Ritter, right side and
shoulder mangled, 47 years old, married,
Charleß Ritter, son of Ilenry, bead in
jured and severly burned; Wallace Dei
trick, four ribs broken and internally in
jured. The elder Ritter and Deitrick
and young Ritter are expected to die.
The exact cause of the explosion will
never be known, as John Protheroe, who
caused it, is dead. The men were part
of a day light shift and had gone into a
part of the mine known as the sand drift,
almost under the center of the bed of the
Susquehanna River. Protheroe went
before them to be sure that the place
was safe. He was about five feet ahead
of them when the explosion occurred,
tearing up everything along the gangway
like a whirlwind and dashing the miners
about like straws.
It is supposed that Protheroe slipped
and fell, breaking bis safety lamp, which
ignited the gas. He was a careful and
experienced miner, and it is hardly pos
sible the accident was caused by his neg
ligence. The loss to the company will
be quite heavy, as the explosion dam
aged the roof of the mine, making large
I cracks through which it is feared the
water may enter from the river.
Liability of Employer**.
Secretary of Internal Affairs Tlios. J.
Stewart has published in advanco Sec
tion A. of Part 111, of the annual report
of that department, comprising an ex
haustive review of the legal relations be
tween employers and employes in Penn
sylvania, prepared by Albert S. Bolles,
the chief of the bureau of industrial
statistics. The first seven sections are of
a general character, in which the true
end of the rule of duty that ought to be
established is considered, and the diffi
culty of legislating on the subject.
Next is presented a review of the ear
ly cases in England, and in the United
States. The brazier case was the first
reported in Pennsylvania, in 1853, in
which tho supreme court decided that
an employer was not liable to an em
ploye for an accident resulting from the
f negligence of another employe, unless
the employer was negligent in selecting
him. The reason for the decision is
then given, followed by a review of all
the subsequent cases.
Next is considered the rule requiring
employers to select suitable servants,
tools, machinery, apparatus, etc., and all
the modifications that have been made
from time to time until the present.
Then the cases detin ng a fellow servant
are presented as well as those defining
the liability of an independent cont-iae
tor, this portion of the report closing
with some suggestions for legislative con
sideration. The next part of the report
contains all tho legislation of other
states, while the concluding part contains
all the foreign legislation on the subject.
Petitioning for PiiSHenger Trains.
A petition bus been sent to theofticials
of the B. S. & S. Railroad by the people
of Oneida, asking that the company run
a daily passenger train from that place
to Hazleton. It would be a favor that
should he cordially welcomed if Ex-
Senator Coxe grants this request. The
running of passenger trains between
Oneida and Haz'e'.on would soon lo
followed by extending the road and
service to Freeland, and that alone
would be of much benefit to this place.
It was reported last summer that such
was the company's intention, but since
the deal little lias been heard of it. The
route to Freeland was surveyed and
everything indicated that the B. S. & S.
would reach here in 1892. Although the
road was not intended as a passenger
line, yet, even with its circuitous route,
there is a fine opening to build up a good
trade between Oneida and Freeland,
and it would benefit the company if they
would take advantage of it.
Memorial Day Obxervetl.
So far as can be judged by newspaper
reports the anthracite region of Pennsyl
vania let! the whole United States in its
display of patriotism and remembrance
of the dead on Memorial day. The
beautiful custom of strewing the graves
of deceased soldiers is growing more in
favor with each succeeding year, and
1802 witnessed a more general obser
vance of the day than on any previous
similar occasion. In this respect Free
land did its share in a manner that will
compare favorably with any town in the
state. The parade and exercises were
carried out as announced last week, after
which John D. Hayes, of this place, and
General W. 11. McCartney, of Wilkes-
Harre, delivered addresses. At Eckljy
the societies and Sunday schools of the
town held a parade, and a very able ad
dress was delivered by C'has. Orion
Stroh, of Freeland.
"Tales From Town Topics."
The publishers of "Tales From Town
Topics" have evidently exerted them
selves to infuse all the freshness and frag
rance of the month of roses into No. 4
of the scries which has just appeared.
There are many stories in which the cap
tivating characters aro placed in an en
vironment of summer scenes, with the
Bea or mountains for a back-ground, and
the poetry and wit of the volume all
contain more or less of the gay and ver
nal spirit that distinguishes nature in
this season of pleasurable pastime. As
a summer book, "Tales Fiom Town Top
ics, No. 4," is a refreshment, and will
add materially to the gayety of the hot
weather. "Town Topics," 21 W. Twenty
third Street, New York.
Incompetency Alleged.
In court on Tuesday a writ of quo
warranto was granted against Patrick
McFadden, of Freeland, one of the
supervisors of Foster, compelling him to
show reasons why he should not be re
moved from office. It is alleged that
the supervisor is incompetent, and the
case is supposed to be one of the many
that are being instituted against the past
and present road-masters of this section
by Messrs. Oberrender and McCarthy,
agents of Coxe Bros. & Co. The writ is
returnable on June 13.
Fi-edaml'i* Fire Fighters.
In its account of last week's fire at
| this place the Mauch Chunk Democrat
I says: "They seem to have an efiicic.t
little fire department at Freeland—even

' ton."
