GalTney and had invited iter to come before council and state her case. Mrs. Gaffney was present and said she wanted S2OO for the ground Gxßo feet and would put down the fence and sidewalk herself. The councilmen agreed to accept the offers of A. B. Welch, Mrs. Long and Mrs. McDonald, and to give Mrs. Gaffney the same privilege. If not satisfactory then the council will petition the court to appoint viewers to appraise the same. Street Commissioner Boyle stated that he had raised tho pay of Timothy Boyle to $1.50 per day, as he had charge of a number of men, and council agreed to the same.

The street commissioner was instruct ed to examine the properties whose owners get permits and to see that all glitters and sidewalks are kept clean. The lockup committee reported that the runaway leading from the hose house needed repairs. A question arose as to the duties of the janitor in case of drying hose after practice by tho fire company. It was decided to fay the ap pointment of a janitor over until after the fire company meets, as it is probable tlicy may decide to appoint one for their own room. Jos. Neuburger asked that the sewer lie laid on Front Street, west from Centre, so as to reach his residence, but the council agreed to follow the route laid down until they find out if they can fin ish the whole cf the system already surveyed.

The coal trade is now between seasons, dull hut in excellent condition foragood summer and active fall business. The consumption of coal was unprecentedly large, owing to the cool weather, and the surplus stocks of anthracite in all quarters have been practially wiped out. The total amount of anthracite coal sent to market for the week ending May 28, as reported by the several carrying companies, was 883,179 tons, compared with 801,041 tons in the corresponding week last year, an increase of 81,538 tons. The total amount of anthracite mined thus far in the year of 1892 was 15,328,- 700 tons, compared witli 14,184,851 tons for the same period in 1891, an increase of 1,143,849. l'uruilo at IVllkuH-Rarre. Great pieparations are being made by the Ancient Order of Hibernians, Board of America, for their parade on Wednes day at Wilkes-Barre in honor of the delegates to the state convention, which meets in that city on Tuesday, Wedmiday and Thursday of next week. The parade will be com posed of three sections. In the first will be six companies of the Hibernian Ritles, military societies of Lackawanna and Luzerne Counties, visiting divisions and tfte delegates to the convention. The second is to consist of sixteen divi sions from Lackawanna Gounty, clergy, state officers of the order and the officials of Wilkes-Barre. The third will consist of eighteen divisions of Luzerne and one from Schuylkill, No. 0, of Honey Brook. It is expected that over 3000 men will be in line After the parade a picnic will he held at Luzerne Grove. The excursion from the lower end will run as second section to the first train to the county seat and will leave Freeland at 7.20 A. M. Divisions 10 and 0, of Hazleton and Honey Brook, will be accompanied by St. Gabriel's Cornet Band, anil Divi sions 19 and 20, of Freeland and Eckley, will have St. Patrick's Cornet Band. The fare is $1 for the round trip and the tickets are good to return upon any train. Freeland's Fourth. The arrangements being made by Camp 147, P. O. S. of A., for a great demonstration on July 4 are being per fected as rapidly as possible. All the camps of District No. 4, of this county, have responded to their invitations. Several councils of the Junior American Mechanics and other organizations also signified their intention to be here that day. One of the features of the parade will he the number of mounted men in line. The camp from Drums promises to furnish Bixty horsemen and the C'on yngham camp at least forty. The com mittee in charge of the affair is working to make the occasion a most creditable one, and the members ask the citizens and business people to co-operate with them by decorating the town as profusely as can be done. '1 hat the demonstration will be a great success is already assured from the responses the committee has received. The par ule will start about 2 P. M., after which a picnic will be held at Firemen's Park. The parade of the Slavonian societies of the state, which is to bo held here on the same date, lias been so arranged that the latter will form ore or more divi sions of the general parade, and instead of two processions, as proposed at first, all will combine to make one grand dis play. Branches of the Verhovany Bene ficial Society from Mt. Carmel, Mahanoy City, Shenandoah, Shamokin, Hazleton and Audonried have notified St. John's Society that they would positively be here. The other branches of this orga nization in Schuylkill, Lacknwannn and the upper end of Luzerne County have not been heard from yet, but the mem bers of St. John's are confident that they will have at least 1500 of tho Verhovay on parade. In the evening tho visiting Slavonians will be entertained at Ma lenky's Hall, where the Austrian Or chestra, of New York, will furnish the music. Tlie Combine')* (Jueer IVay. A matter was brought to light the other day which proves that the railroad consolidation is not all that it might be. After it was consinnated everybody took it for granted that whatever "goes" on one branch ought to hold good on anoth er, and arrangements were under way by an organization of town to run an ex cursion to Mountain Park over the Le high Valley. All excursions to this re sort were formerly via the Central from Upper Lehigh, but under the new order of things it was thought the people could be saved the mile walk to the Cen tral station and have the train run di rectly from here. It would result in obtaining a greater number of excursionists for the railroad, company, but when the P. & It. officials were asked they refused to make any such arrangements, stating that all ex cursions to Mountain Park must be run as in former years. As the proceeds of tiie botli roads aro supposed to drop into the Reading's coffers, it is rather queer that a Central train could not be run from here to White Haven, where it could then take its own road to the park. The Boot and Shoe Factory. Of late very little has been heard of the boot and shoe factory, but the parties interested have not been allowing any grass to grow under their feet. As has been staled before the capital stock of the company is $40,000 —$30,000 for a tannery at the Iloneyhole and SIO,OOO for the machinery and manufactory building in Freeland. It was decided this morning to issue a call immediately for tho payment of ten per cent, of the stock, in order that an application may be made for a charter. Hie company is kuown as the Freeland Boot and Shoe Manufacturing Company. Frank Ora witz is president and M. Zemany is treasurer. As soon as the charter is re ceived work will be commenced.

FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, JUNE 9, 1892. NEW BOARDS ORGANIZE. Foster's Director's Have an In teresting Time. I6FPUBLICANS TRY TO ELECT A SUC CESSOR TO EX-DIRECTOR LONG DEMOCRATS OBJECT AND CON FU SION ENSUES. Foster's directors had an interesting time at the Woodside school house on Monday eveninig before the new hoard organized. At the last meeting James Long resigned as director, but noone was selected to fill the vacancy, as there were only three other members present. On Monday evening the members of the old hoard attempted to return to the order of business where it was discontinued at the previous meeting. This would have given them an opportunity, under the order of new business, to elect a Repub lican in place of Mr. Long, as the hoard stood three Republicans and two Demo crats. President Hanlon refused to agree to this, and to sustain his authority for the ruling prduced the Pennsylvania School Laws, which w ere adopt d some time ago by the hoard as its guide. The Republicans, who had Hill's Manual as their authority, found themselves foiled ! and refused to accept the decision. The President then adjourned the hoard and called for the organization of the new one. Messrs. Snyder and McNelis pre sented theircertificates and the newboard proceeded with the business of electing its officers, as follows: President—Erasmus Snyder. Secretary—Thomas Melt ugh. Treasurer—P. H. Hanlon. C. F. McHugh, of Wilkes-Ilarre, was ; elected solicitor for the board. The treasurer's bond was fixed nts2s,- ' 000, and the secretary was instructed to compel the officials of the old board to return all the hooks, documents and other property which they carried olf with I them at the meeting. The hoard now consists of four Demo crats, Thomas McHugh, P. H. Hanlon, Hugh McNelis and Erasmus Snyder, and one Republican, Geo. Meneeley. It is probable that another Democrat will be elected to serve out the term of Ex- Director Long. Robt, Oliver and Wm. Boyd were the outgoing members. ! FBEKI.ANI) nOUOUGH. The Freeland borough board met on Monday evening and after transacting routine business adjourned nine die. The directors of the new board then orga- j nized with the following olliccrs: President—B. F. Rute. Secretary—John Smith. Treasurer—Adam Sachs. The hoard now consists of five Repub licans, Wm. Watkins, B. F. Rute. John i Smith, Adam Sachs and Leopold Shan no, and one Democrat, H. M. Doudt. The outgoing member was J. I). Hayes, Director Sachs having been re-elected. lI.VZLE TOWN'SIIII'. Ilazle board admitted Dominic Timony and Thomas McNelis as members, and elected the following officers: President—Henry Faux. Secretary—Charles P. Gallagher. Treasurer—William McGinty. Meeting of D. A. 87. FREELAND, Pa., June 8, 1892. I EDITOR TRIBUNE : —A special meeting I of District Assembly No. 87, Knights of j Labor of the Lehigh Region, was held ; at Freeland this week for the purpose of j hearing the complaint of the employes j of the Upper Lehigh Company, the com- ! pany having refused to pay semi monthly. Petitions were handed to the Master Workman asking that he should take some action, as the factory inspector had been appealed to in vain. The M. W. read a letter he had received from the factory inspector and a copy of the laws. Section 1 requires that a demand must he made und then he would come and prosecute. The M. W. then stated that the semi-monthly pay law was like all other labor laws—there was some clause or loophole left that these tyrants of labor could, if compelled to respect the law, have revenge by blacklisting. This is one of their favorite resorts. If a poor man violates one of the smallest borough ordinances he is thrown into the cooler and the next morning he is relieved of $5 or $lO, simply because he is poor. The companies set at defiance tho company store law, the semi-monthly pay law, etc., and will say to you, "you dare not prosecute or I will drive you and your family out of the state." There is but one remedy. Organize and de mand of the law makers laws that will protect you and your families, and if you cannot get this peaceably you can get it forceably, and this measure would be no more than this nefarious system of blacklisting that they practice every day. The D. A. closed to meet in regular ses sion in Hazleton the first week in July. DELEGATE. For Musical Development. The Catholic Choral Association of of the Scranton Diocese met at Dunmore and it decided to hold the next competi tion on the laßt Thurday in May, 1893.

Tlie Penalty of Murder. j Edward McMillan was hanged on Mon thly morning for the murder of his wife lon February 12, 1891. The drop fell at 10.21, and in nin minutes McMillan was | dead, his neck having been broken by the fall. He spent an hour in conversa tion with his keepers, and after a short prayer with Father McAndrew ate a hearty breakfast. lie expressed his de termination to die bravely, and said lie felt no doubt of (Jod's forgiving him for whatever he had done. To the very last he reiterated his as sertions of not having the most remote recollection of committing the crime, and said he was anxious for the end to come, that he might meet his beloved wife in heaven. Fathers McAndrew and Dona hue spent tho hour previous to the exe cution with McMillan encouraging him anil praying. He walked tirmly to the scaffold holding steadily in his hand a crucifix.., On the gallows a live minutes final service was held, McMillan respond ing earnestly to the prayers of the priests. He cordially bade them, the warden and sheriff good-bye, assisted tlie sheriff to adjust the noose properly about his neck, said he had nothing to say, and died with a prayer on his lips. The crime of Edward McMillan was one of the most fiendish eve? known in the county. On February 12, 1891, Mc- Millan took home a large bottle of whis key, and in the evening he and his wife were very drunk and cpiarreling. Mc- Millian during the quarrel struck his wife with a poker knocking her sense less. Pie then placed tho poker in the lire until it got redhot and held it upon her bare limbs in numerous places above the knees and the lower portion of the body. Wherever the iron was applied it burned deeply into the flesh and left an ugly wound. After a four days trial he was found guilty of mnrder in the first degree on June 24, and sentenced to be hanged, llis attorneys took the case to tlie su preme court and the board of pardons, but both bodies refused to interfere. Not Organized Yet. A number of those who have sub scribed for electric light stock met on Monday evening, when It. J. Fay, of New York, was present and gave tlie company several suggestions as to how they should proceed. He showed the diagrrm of a circuit which included the borough, Points and a portion of South | Heberton, together with a detailed state : roent of all necessary connections, | switches, etc. He estimated that a first | class plant could ho put in by the firm lie represented for about $12,000. He | read a number of testimonials from mu nicipalities in which he lias placed plants, and tlie members seemed to favor liis views. No action was taken in the matter. The committee appointed to procure ground reported the best loca tion the best location they could obtain is near tiie water works. It was decided not to organize permanently that even ing, hut to meet again this evening, when every stockholder should be present, as it is necessary that the company should get down to business. Married This Morning. George W. Wilinot, of Upper Lehigh, and Miss Mamie Winters, eldest daugh ter of Libor Winters, of Front Street were married this morning at 11 o'clock l>y Rev. J. W. Bishoff, of Upper Lehigh.

Philip Bachman, ot Freeland, and William Mass, of Upper Lehigh, preformed the duty of ushers. After tlie wedding a reception was held at the residence of tlie bride's parents, where the young couple re ceived tlie congratulations of a number of friends from Mauch Chunk, Allen town, Catasauqua, Wilkes-Barre, Hazle ton and other towns. Mr. Wilmot and wife leave Freeland at 1.50 o'clock this afternoon for a week's visit to Philadel phia and other cities. The Republican Mini die. Tlie latest from Minneapolis to-day shows no change in tlie Republican situation. Tlie delegates are about equally divided between Blaine and Harrison. The contest for the nomina tion promises to be a fierce one, and many leading Republicans are in favor of taking a new man as a compromise. McKinley and Reed are spoken of as probable dark horses. The fight is of much interest to tlie Democracy, for no matter who is nominated there will he considerable knifing done in November- The next president will certainly bo a Democrat.
