DOWN WE GO ONCE MORE.
FREELAND'S COLORS LOWERED TO
THE HAZLETON CLUB.
The Lnrnl Team Lost Yesterday by One
Hun, After an Fxcltlng Game of Nine
Innings—Defeated at Jeanesville on
Friday—Other GamoH.
Shakespeare's "Comedy of Errors"
wasn't ill it in comparison with the
game of ball played here yesterday
between Freeland and Hazleton clubs.
From the very start it was an exciting
race as to which club could obtain credit
for the most errors, and while Hazleton
carried off the honors in that respect it
also won the game. The audience was
about equally divided and the admirers
of both teams had equal opportunities to
crow. This they did with all the energy
they possessed, and the see-saw score
kept them busy applauding until the last
man was out. Errors were made as
frequently as possible, and Freeland
tried hard to surpass the brilliant
record their opponents made in that
column. Tn the ninth inning the score
was 8 to 8, and with two men out and
two on base a fly was popped up to Boyle
in right field, but P. J. was over-confi
dent and the ball bounded from his
hands, allowing the winning run to be
scored.
Following is the official score :

A small audience saw Freeland de
feated on Friday at Jeanesville. It was
a narrow escape from another shut-out,
the only run scored by Freeland beinu
made by O'Donnell in the ninth inning.
Jeanesville won through strong and
steady hitting, and found lleiser's de
livery something easy to solve. Ander
son held liis former companions down in
very good style. A number of brilliant
plays were made in the game,
following is the official score:

The Tigers and Fearnots met yester
day morning for the second time this
season, and the spectators were treated
to a fine exhibition. The teams were
about evenly matched, and owing to the
rivalry existing, the game was played
with more earnestness and care than is
usually seen in Imse hall. Brislin and
Gaffney were the battery for the Tigers,
and Bonner and Boyle for the Fearnots.
In the sixth imning Bonner gave way to
llerron, of Villanova college, but "the
change did not alter the result, the
Tigers winning, 10 to 5. This places the
clubs on an equal footing agnin, and the
deciding game, to be played shortly, will
he one of great interest.
Cafnsatiqna and Ashland played a
twelve-ining game on Saturday, the lat
ter club winning by a score of 5 to 4.

Cleveland and St. Louis played a six
tcen-innlng game on Friday, and at dark
the score was still tied. There were 0
runs, 7 hits, 05 put outs, 47 assists and
7 errors in the game. Virtue, Cleve
land's first baseman, had 24 put outs
without an error. It was the longest
game of the season.
The game to-morrow at the park be
tween Hazleton and Freeland saloon
men will he a great struggle. If the
home club handles the hall and hat with
half as much science as t hey display in
filling schooners Freeland will win by a
tremendous majority.
England, a one-armed pitcher with
quite a record, has signed with Wilkes-
Bar re.
The Painter A. A. clubj which was
here on the Bth inst., will play two
games at Lansford on July 4.
.Teddo has organized nn association
and will put a club in the field. Jeddo
has good material and should turn out a
first-class team.
Jeanesville will play here on Friday
afternoon. The proceeds are for the
benefit of the mother of Samuel Keyes,
of Pittsburg.
Freeland has six lost and three won.
Pitcher Lannon, of the Wilkes-Barre
State League club, who threw against
Jeanesville on Wednesday and shut
them out, has been signed by Manager
llayden. lie will pitch against Free
land on Friday, and Simmons will catch.
.Saloonkeepers lit Trouble.
The suits of ojectment brought by the
Lehigh Coal and Navigation company
against the hotel men of Lansford who
hold deeds containing a clause prohibit
ing the sale of liquor ended in a victory
for the company in court last week.
The firm of Mulliearn A llorrian, Patrick
Broslin, William Pritchard and Mrs,
Mary Campbell set up no defense and j
handed over their deeds to the company. [
An amicable arrangement has been
made which permits the license this
year to be run out, and after that the
company will redeed the properties to
them. These deeds contained a clause
that in the event of violating the liquor
clause the properties would revert to the
company. Tlio other hotel men hold
deeds with the prohibitory clause, hut
no reverting clause. When these cases
are called there will bo a fight to the
finish. In the meantime the town will
lose the license money, which will con
siderably hurt the borough in its finan
cial affairs.

The pupils who played, sang and took
part in the two short dramas did justice
to themselves and their teachers, and
showed that the time spent in school is
not lost, but put to a use that will bene
fit them and their parents in after years.
Some of the piano selections were very
difficult and required great proficiency
to present them as ably as the pupils
did.
When the programme was concluded
Rev. M. J. Fallinco, on behalf of the
teachers, presented to Miss M. V. Davis
a very pretty gold class pin, containing
her name, date and the word "applica
tion," for which the pin was given.
Master Frank Fiburski was also the re
cipient of a prize, a handsome gold
medal, with his name, the date and
"genernl improvement in music" in
scribed thereon.
A Problem for Mathematicians.
As there are a number of persons in
and around Freeland who are mathema
tically inclined, the following prob
lem was handed to the editor, with a
request that it be published for the
benefit of those who love figures. In
order that interest may he stimulated in
the solution a prize of $lO will be paid
to the party sending the first correct
answer to the TRIBUNE :
A farmer's daughter was born on the same

FREELAND, LUZERNE COUNTY, PA., JUNE 27, 1892.
REPUBLICANS ORGANIZE.
HARRISON AND RE|D MEN FORM A
CAMPAIGN CLUB.
Protectionists Meet and Decide to llooin
the Ticket in This Section—Officers
Fleeted and Sixty Names Knrolled—
They Kxpect to Have 300 Members.
The Republicans held an enthusiastic
meeting on Saturday evening in I)e-
Pierro's parlors and organized a Harri
son and Iteid club. After the temporary
proceedings were disposed of the follow
ing officers were elected :
President—B. F. Davis.
Vice President—Owen Fowler.
Secretary—Gilbert Smith.
Treasurer—Win. Butz.
Short speeches were made by diiterent
members who warmly advocated the
policy pursued by the Republican party
and earnestly invited all Republicans to
come and join the club.
About sixty members were enrolled,
and, as this was the first meeting, the
officers and members are confident that
the club will have 300 members in a
short time. The parlors, which will be
used for a club room, are nicely decora
ted and hamdsomcly furnished, having
scarcely an equal in this part of the
state. The next meeting will be held
on Saturday evening, July 9.
Will Meet Aguin at Ashley.
The biennial convention of the A. O.
H. (American Board) of this county was
held at Hazleton on Thursday, and after
transacting important business relating
to the order the following officers were
elected for the next two years: Capt.
John T. Flannery, Fittston, county dele
gate; James Ilwyer, Milnesville, record
ing secretary; John Merriman, Nanti
coke, financial secretary, and Thomas
Mcllale, Sugar Notch, treasurer. Fa
ther Coinmiskey delivered an address
to the delegates, after which they ad
journed to meet at Ashley in June, 1894.
Twenty-two divisions and four military
companies are located in Luzerne
county, with a membership of 2600 and
$16,000 in their treasuries.
An Opening: for Capital.
From all appearances there is a splen
did opportunity here for the investment
of capital in a brewery. The fact that
there is more beer drank in Freeland |
than in any other town ill the state should
be sufficient to induce either local or out
side parties to locate such an establish
ment. While an industry of this kind
would not give employment to a great
many men, yet it would partly recom
pense in some manner the people who
use the beverage. Even if the trade of
one-half of the sixty saloons here could
be secured it ought to be enough to start
a brewery, and by turning out a first
class brand the investment would be a
profitable one.
Look Out for Thin Swindler.
A Pottsville paper says a hypocrite
wearing a benignant smile and Philadel
phia clothes was in Pottsville the other
day. She pretends to represent a Phila
delphia dry goods house and was getting
up a list of subscribers—of purchasers—
for the house. It costs hut $1 to join
this wonderful charity organization
which would sell goods at half price to
these select and good looking ladies. It
wasn't a free-for-all either. Only the
elite, two and a half-dozen in number,
would be permitted to join, llerscheme
works well and after swindling quite a
number siie skipped out, up the road.
To .Supply a Vacant Charge.
The sixth annual convention of Wyo
ming Classis of the Reformed Church
was held in Eayette, New York, last
week. There was a very full attendance
nnd all the sessions were of interest.
Rev.E. I). Miller, of Freeland was dis
missed to Goshenhoppen Classis. The
vacant charge will be supplied by Rev.
A. M. Masonhaimer, of Weatherly; Rev.
F. K. Levari, I). D.of Wilkes-Barre, and
Rev. Aaron Noll, of Hazleton, until a
new pastor is secured. The next annual
meeting will be held in Hazleton on the
first Wednesday of June, 1893.
Locomotive Breaks Down.
The train due at 7. P. M. on Saturday,
drawn by engine 537, Wm. Wilde en
gineer, met with an accident a few hun
dred yards above Drifton station. The
pin conneting the piston-rod and cross
head on the locomotive broke, and
when the piston-rod becamo free it
crashed through the cylinder-head and
brought the train to a stop, but without
any serious results. A message was sent
to Hazleton and engine 440, David
ScliaiTer engineer, arrived in a short
time and completed the trip.
Cuptain Flannery'a Itecor<l.
Capt. J. T. Flannery, of Pittston, was
in town attending the A. O. H. conven
tion. He is a member of the legislature
from this county, and only last week
was renominated for a second term.
He was one of the brightest members of
the house at the last session nnd was
held in great respect by his colleagues.
He also has the distinction of being
captain of the best drilled company in
the National Guard of this state. —
Speaker.
Violated the Mine I,aw.
j The first arrest for violating the mine
law, as revised by Senator limes during
I his term in office, was made at Pittston
|on Thursday, according to the Ne/uts
ilealcr. George Savage, a I'olander, was
| arrested by a deputy sherill armed with
a warrant tiiat had been issued by the
court. Savage was employed 'in the
Clear Spring colliery, at West Pittston,
Inst winter, and fired a blast that tore
through a heading and killed an em
ploye in the adjoining breast. Savage
was taked before the court and, in de
fault of SBOO bail, sent to jail. Later in
the day he was released on bail.
Prior to Senator Hines amending the
mine law the mine inspector was the
only person that could make information
and cause the arrest of any mine em
ploye for violating the mine law. The
amendment does away with this flimsy
arrangement and gives any citizen the
right to go before the court, give infor
mation and have a warrant issued and
the warrant is to be served by the sheriff.
Under the revised law the mine inspec
tor is also held to strict account or he is
liable to arrest. The miners are jubi
lant that the senator has taken the
law out of the hands of the inspec
tors, who seldom prosecute, unless they
are forced to. Now it gives any citizen
the privilege of causing the arrest.
UPPER LEHIGH NOTES.
Our Correspondent Accuses the Game
Club of Negligence—Other Items.
Once more we want to protest against
the mean and unlawful advantage taken
of the finny tribe, by fishing with nets
in tlie Honeyhole and Nescopeck creek.
Net-fishing is carried on in these waters
as if there never was a law prohibiting
it. Nobody seems to care, all seem
eager to have a hand in it. The mem
bers of the game club are not very anx
ious to have it stopped, as it is said some
of them are in the business themselves
andean use nets to better advantage
than those who are not members. We
always placed great confidence in the
members of the club until lately, when
it became apparent that it was nothing
more or less than a mere imitation, got
ten up for the purpose of a litte cheap
notoriety and if they can do no better
than they have been doing they had
better disband, as their indifference is
a disgrace to the sporting fraternity.
There is another gentleman here who
holds the title of fish warden. He
takes no interest in it whatever, and if
lie intends to continue in the future as
in the past his plaiu duty is to resign, as
his pretended ignorance of what is going
on under his jurisdiction fails descrip
tion. At present about sixty nets are in
use in these waters and large quantities
of game fish are being caught every day.
Perhaps in a week or so I will send you
a list of the names of those who nso
them.
The Young People's Christian Endea
vor society held an anniversary in the
I'esbyterian Church on Thursday even
ing. A large number of the White
Haven branch of this society arrived by
special train at 7 o'clock and took part.

fake such interest in their future welfare
and we hope they will continue to the
end.
Miss Myers, a music teacher of Hazle
ton, has been spending a few days at the
hotel here.
Samuel Price, of Mauch Chunk, is

ing a few days among relatives in Wilkes-
Barre.
Miss Hannah Ferry is enjoying a few
weeks among friends in Hazleton.
A large number of people went from
here to attedd the circus Wednesday
evening. It must have deeply impressed
itself upon some of their minds for when
they arrived here they had another cir
cus of their own.
Patrick Carr had a hand badly injured
on Thursday in No. 7 slope by a prop
rolling on it.
Miss Lizzie Wagner and sister, for
merly of this place but now of Bethle

this place, moved hiß family to South

his future home.
To-morrow evening the debating club
will meet again, and we will try and
give the readers of the TRIBUNE a full
account of it.
AH of our young people attended the
last picnic at Freeland, and since then
the scribe is satisfied that some of the
boys were in a grand march which last
ed over an hour and an orchestra was
not necessary to furnish the music.
The work of tearing out the machinery
of No. 4 breaker continues and when
the frost comes again we expect to see
the wooden portion of it retailed through
town for $1 a load.
Horfic Tliicvun Around.
Constable Boyle and John Mcllugh,
of Hazleton, were here on Saturday
morning for the thieves who stole a pair
of horses from McHugh's stable during
the preceding night. They received no
clue around here, except that the few
gypsies who where encamped near the
old station had also disappeared. The
gypsies were traced to White Haven
and from there to Laurytown, but
nothing was heard about the horses
until yesterday, when they were found
near Tamaqua.
Membership Contest.
The members of the Young Men's T.
A. B. Society are working earnestly to
increase their membership for the bal
ance of the year. All the members are
in a contest to secure as many new mem
bers as possible until October 10, when a
count will be made and the five mem
bers having the largest number to their
credit will continue the contest until
January 1, 1893. The member then
having tlie largest number proposed and
initiated will receive a prizo of S2O.
Klectrlc Light Trouble.
The electric light company met on
Thursday evening and after paying all
bills adjourned without a date or place
for the next meeting. Much difficulty is
experienced in collecting the subscrip
tions of some stockholders. It is said
there is a move under way to organize
another company which will pusn the
electric light question without any fur
ther delay.
