KEYES' SUDDEN DEATH.
The Ball Player Dies at the
Miners' Hospital.
POUND UNCONSCIOUS IN AN ALLEY
HE REMAINED IN THAT CONDI
TION UNTIL EXPIRED—THE
JURY'S VERDICT.
Samuel Keyes, of Pittsburg, who came
to Jeauesville last spring to play hall
with the club at tiiat place, died at the
Hazleton Miners' Hospital 011 Monday
afternoon. Last week lie resigned his
position at Jeanesvilleand came here on
Friday, intending to catcli for the Free-
Club in Sunday's game. He spent the
evening with a number of his friends
through town, and when lie retired to
liis room in the Central Hotel lie was in
good spirits, chatting and laughing with
11 is companions.
About half-past three o'clock Saturday
morning lie was found lying unconsious
in the alley by the side of the hotel by
John Carlson, a baker employed by J.
B. Lauhacli. As the laxly was directly
beneath the third-story window of the
room lie occupied it was surmised that
lie fell out during the night. Physicians
were immediately summoned and every
thing done to revive liirn without suc
cess. All the assistance that his friends
could give was cheerfully rendered, and
on Saturday evening lie was taken to the
hospital, where it was thought he could
lie given treatment that would bring
liiin hack to consciousness.
On Sunday and Monday morning his
condition remained unchanged, notwith
standing every effort made by the
hospital doctors, and 011 Monday after
noon lie began to sink rapidly, expiring
at half-past one o'clock. His mother,
who had been notified on Saturday of
her son's misfortune, came on from
Pittsburg, and was at his side when he
died.
Deputy Coroner Buckley was request
ed by Dr. Kellar, superinteddent of the
hospital, to hold an inquest. After a
post-mortem examination of the body
had been made by Dr. 11. B. Casselberry
the jury adjourned until Tuesday morn
ing, when the testimony of seven
witnesses was taken at the Central
Hotel. From theevidence it wasshown
I hat the deceased had probably been on
his way to the outhouse in the rear of
the building, as lie was barefooted ami
all his outside clothing was removed.
Those who had been in his company
before retiring testified he was sober,
having drank only a few glasses of beer
during the evening. It was also learned
lie was a sufferer from Briglit's disease.
The jury or coroner could not find anv
evidence to substantiate the prevaling
opinion that lie hail fallen from the
window, neither could they discover
anything that would give the affair the
appearance that foul play had been used.
The jury rendered a verdict that he died
from Briglit's disease of the kidneys,
superinduced by uremic convulsions.
The remains were taken to Pittsburg
on Tuesday morning, accompanied by
Mrs. Keyes and some of Ins friends.
He was aged about 25 years, and was the
only support of his widowed mother.
"Ledger" Coal Report.
The coal trade is unchanged in any
material feature. The weekly output of
coal continues at the rate of about eight
hundred thousand tons, and the markets
are absorbing ail the newly-mined pro
duct, so Hint there is 110 surplus stock
accumulating at tidewater slapping
points. There is a disposition on the
part of some dealers to post|K>ne stocking
their yards with coal for the fall and
winter trade in hope that prices, if not
lower then than now, will he no higher.
But well informed coal operators and
shippers of anthracite are of the opinion
that as the season advances prices will
strenghten, and that those who nglect
to take advantage of the present prices
will regret it later in the year.
The total amount of anthracite coal
sent to inarkut for the week ending June
4, as reported by the several carrying
companies, was 780,875 tons, compared
with 770,259 tons in tile corresponding
week last year, an increase of 4019 tons.
The total amount of anthracite mined
thus far in the year of 1892 was 10,109,-
575 tons, compared with 14,901,111 tons
for the same period in 1891, an increase
of 1,148,464.
Tho New Method of Voting.
The new method of voting is not so
difficult.as the cumbersome legal phrase
ology of the act make it appear, accord
ing to an exchange. The voter comes to
the guard rail, calls out his name, and if
found on the registry list, or if lie is
otherwise qualified to vote, lie is admit
ted inside the rail. Once within lie is
handed a ballot and as 110 receives it the
clerk marks opposite his name on the
list the letter B. The voter then passes
on to the booths, which are not leßs than
four in number. A booth contains a
shelf, pen and ink and a printed card of
instructions to the voter. The ballot
itself varies in size according to the num
ber of persons to be voted for. In case
of a presidential election it is about 12x12
inches. The names of tho candidates
are arrranged in columns. All the Re
publican candidates are arranged in one
column under the word "Republican"
witli the name of the office to the left.
All the Democratic candidates are under
tile word "Democrat." All the Prohibi
tion candidates are under the head "Pro
hibition." A fourth column of blanks
is left, so that if a voter does not wish to
vote for any of the candidates whose
names are printed, he may write the
name of li is choice in the blank spaces.
Opposite the name of each candidate,
and opposite the words "Republican,"
"Democratic," etc., and opposite each
of the blank spaces, there is a square
blank spot.
The ballot is prepared as follows: In
the square to the right of the voter's
choice, the voter marks an X. He must
do so opposite the name of every candi-
date whom lie desires to vote, unless he
wishes to vote the straight Republican
ticket, or the straight Democratic ticket,
or the straight l'rohihition ticket, in
which case it suffices to mark an X oppo
site the name "Republican," "Democrat
ic" or "l'rohihition" at the head of tlio
column. Names written in do not need
an X opposite them. After the ballot
lias been prepared, for doing which the
voter is allowed but three minutes time
if any one is waiting to vote, it must lie
folded with the official caption outside,
before leaving the booth. It is then
handed to one of the inspectors, who
numbers it in the right-hand upper cor
ner outside, and folds and pastes the
corner down over the number and de
posits the ballot in the box. When
numbering it he calls out the number,
and a clerk writes it opposite the voter's
name.
No more than four voters, besides those
in the booths, are allowed inside the
rail at one time. No solicitation of votes
is allowed in the voting room, and hilt
one watcher from each party, who must
have a certificate, is allowed at the polls.
It is the duty of the judge of the elec
tion to keep order and lie may call in
the police to do so.
Reception at St. Ann's Chnrch.
The second semi-annual reception of
ttie Duugliters of Mary Sodality, which
was organized on May 31,18111, was held
lit St. Ann's Catholic Church on Sunday
evening. The main and side altars of
the church were handsomely decorated
and illuminated for the occasion, and the
audience nearly filled the large edifice.
The exercises began with the singing of
a hymn by the sodality, after which the
applicants, twenty in number, proceeded
to the altar .railing. The necessary
questions being satisfactorily answered
the new members recited the act of con
secration and after receiving the badges
of tile society were admitted to the
sodality.
Rev. F. P. McNally then delivered an
instructive sermon upon the Blessed
Virgin, showing why Catholics venerute
and pay her homage, and telling how
young lives which are placed under her
protection may receive through her the
necessary grace and assistance from
God to guide them properly til rough the
trials and temptationsof the world. He
also advised all the members of the
society to show to others fitting examples
by living lives of modesty, piety and
humility. The sodality now lias a large
membership, due to the untiring efforts
of the Sisters of Mercy and Father
McNally.

THE BOAT CAPSIZED
Sad and Fatal Ending of a
Fishing Excursion.
KOIIKKT JOHNSON HKOWMII) IN
GRAHAM'S PONI) ON SATURDAY
EVENING -THE BODY RECOVERED
I A rait A LONG SEARCH.
| A sad case of drowning occurred 011
| Saturday evening at Graham's Pond, in
Sandy Valley, by which Robert John
son, of Johnson Street, lost his life.
Kdward Rrngan, of Adams Street, and
the three brothers, Matthew, Isaac and
Robert Johnson, went to spend the
night fishing. About 8 o'clock Mr.
Brogan and Robert secured a boat and
rowed out to the mid.lie of the pond.
The water there is about twelve feet
deep on account of the heavy rain of last
week. After fishing awhile they decided
to return to the shore. They went but
a short distance when Robert stood up
in the boat, causing it to turn on its side
and become full of water, after which it
began to sink rapidly. Both men stayed
in it until it went from under them.
Robert seems to have lost all presence
of mind when struggling in the water,
as Brogan, who was cool and collected,
gave him an oar to cling to, but lie let it
go and sank while Brogan was trvingto
right the boat.
In this lie failed and after a hard
struggle he became exhausted and also
sank, but by an effort such as only a
drowning man can make he succeeded !
in getting his head above the water and
within reach of the oar he had given to
Robert a few minutes before. With
this he kept afloat until rescued by
Matthew' and Isaac in another boat.
The others immediately instituted a
search for the body, but could not find
it, and Matthew returned to Freeland
for assistance. Grappling irons were ]
taken to the pond and the body was re- I
covered about 11.30 o'clock. The deputy I
coroner was sent for on Sunday morn
lng, but after he viewed the remains
and heard the account of the accident j
he decided an inquest was unnecessary. !
Mr. Johnson was aged 27 years, 3 months
and 8 days, and was interred at Freeland 1
Cemetery on Tuesday afternoon. He
leaves a wife and one child.
Fullier Moiling,,r Deail.
Monday was St. Anthony's Day, and,
as usual on this occasion, early morning J
found thousands of pilgrims 011 the way i
to the shrine of that saint 011 Mt. Troy !
Allegheny City. Every year many |
persons afflicted with diseases of all
kinds, and from all over the United 1
States, present themselves to Fatho-
Mollinger, rector of the Church of St.
Anthony, for cure of their infirmities.
At noon the crowd numbered 5000 and
was still increasing. There were present
the blind, the crippled, ami the sufferers
from almost every known disease, wait
ing for admission to the church to obtain
the blessing of the great priest and cele- |
brated healer of the sick.
Not one-fifth of those present were
able to get into the church to attend
mass. After the service the work of
blessing the people began, and continued
till 2 P. M., when St. Anthony's Chapel
was opened for blessing with the relics '
of the saint. In the afternoon Father
Mollinger was overcome by the heat and
nervous prostration. lie is seriously ill, ;
and on account of bis age may not
recover. Hundreds of pilgrims, who J
came from all points of the country,
were disappointed and compelled to go
buck to their homes without seeing him. 1
The famous priest and physician,
whoso reputed cures have made Ids'
name known throughout the country,
died yesterday afternoon. He wns over
seventy years of age, and was a native
of Belguim.
I'IIKIIIIIK the I ml tint ries.
IV. J. Eekert has been selected treas-!
urer of the Freeland Electric Light Com-!
panv, and is making his calls upon the
stockholders for 10 percent, of their sub
scriptions. This is being done in order
that a charter may be obtained without
delay. Mr. Eekert reports that the sub
scribers are responding promptly to tliej
demand.
M. Zemany, treasurer of the Freeland
Boot and Shoe Manufacturing Company,
is also on the road collecting 10 per cent,
of the subscriptions of this industry
As the capital stock, $40,000, has been
nil taken and the members are all anx
ious to have work commenced it is likely
that their application for a charter will
be made in a short while.
A South Shle Walker.
On Saturday Mrs. Sheridan, who
keeps a boarding house at Beaver
Meadow, preformed the feat of walking
from that place to town in search of a
gent who had left and forgot to his board
bill. While on her way to Upper Le
high, where she had located him, she
fell exhausted at the upperend of Ridge
Street. She was kindly taken care of
by the residents there and Dr. Murray
was sent for. The doctor applied res-j
toratives and when she had recovered
sufficiently he gave her a short lecture :
upon the folly of such pedestrian feats j
and avised her to return home by train,
which she did—minus the board bill or
the boarder.
Pennsylvania Crops.
The weather crop bulletin of the Penn-1
sylyunia State Weather Service says: '
The weather during the past week bus
been much more favorable than that of
the preceding two weeks. Some sections
of the state were visited by heavy local
aains during the first four days and j
cloudy weather was very general, but
the abundance of sunshine has done
much to counter act the bad effects of
the prolonged wet spell. The wet
weather has done considerable damage
to the corn crop throughout the strte,
and in some sections it lias rotted in the
ground. Much corn will have to he re-
I'lantcd or the land used for buckwheat.
W heat and oats are reported in good
i condition and an average crop is antici
| pated. Potatoes are doing well and a
large crop is expected. Tobacco plant
ing was done under favorable conditions
and some sections report a largo acreage.
Hay ii being cut in some places in the
southeastern portion of the state, but is
reported as rather below the average in
some eastern counties. Strawberries are
ripening well and are very abundant.
The cherry crop is reported as almost a
total failure, owing to heavy rains while
the trees were in bloom. Some places
report apples to be dropping badly, but
the prospects are generally favorable for
most kinds of fruit. A contiuation of
present weather conditions would much
improve the crops in all sections.
A. O. 11. Convention.
The thirty-eight annual convention of
the Ancient Order of Hibernians of
Pennsylvania began at Wilkes-Barre on
Tuesday. In the morning the 400 dele
gates, representing every county in the
I state, attended a special high mass at St.
Mary's ( liurch, Father McAndrew being
the celebrant. lie spoke briefly of the
organization, praising its work and ad
vocated unity and harmoy in the deliber
ations of tlie convention. The conven
tion opened with an address of welome
by Slayor Nichols, who said he felt
pleased and honored to be the bearer of
j the message of greeting to such a body
'of representative Irish-Americans. He
extended to the delegates, through the
J people of Wilkes-Barre, a hearty wel-
I come.
Rev. Father Jordan, of Wilkes-Barre,
was then introduced by State Delegate
Jackson, who said that never before had
the stale convention of the A. O. 11. been
honored by having a priest to deliver the
opening address. Father Jordan's ad
dress was most stirring, He asked them
to persevere in their love for their God,
the birthplace of their forefathers and
their adopted eountry.
Rev. Father Philips, of Plains, then
made an eloquent address, arousing
great enthusiasm. "I have never met,"
lie said, "in my seventeen years of life
ps a priest, a body of men belonging to
any order or society who are more faith
ful or more devoted to their cause than
the A. O. H." He spoke of the work of
the A. O. 11. for thq church and Catholic
schools, and said he glorilied in being be
fore men so true to their religion, their
country and their brethren.
A vote of thunks was unanimously
tendered the reverend gentlemen and
the business of the convention then
commenced.
Yesterday was styled general recrea
tion day for the visiting delegates, the
societies of Luzerne and Lackawanna
Counties giving them a monster picnic
at Luzerne Grove, which was prevded
by a line parade. From Lackawanna
came sixteen divisions of the order and
Luzerne furnished twenty-one more.
The seven companies of Hibernian
Rifles, Meagher Guards and Co. H of
the Nintn Regiment attracted general
aitention by their splendid inarching
and flashy uniforms. Nineteen bands
and eleven drum corps furnished music
for the paraders, eacil of whom, outside
the military division, wore a green and
gilt badge, trimmed with red, white and
blue.
