WONDERFUL FASTING.
A Lehigh County Woman lljik Not Eaten
for 00:t DayH.
The history of Lehigh county's great
faster, Mrs. Adam Wuchler, of White
hall, has often been told in the news
papers. Commencing to-day she will
complete 903 days without touching a
morsel of food. A reporter who visited
her found the old lady propped up in
bed. Her eyes are bandaged with a
white cloth which makes her black hair
appear still darker by contrast. She
says she cannot see at ail. She is exced
ingly attenuated, but her strength of
mind is remarkable' Her voice is firm,
and the subject of ber conversation was
entirely of a religious nature. "God
knows how I have suffered and and He
alone is my judge," she said. "1 pray
for relief, but fear it will only come by
death; how soon I cannot say."
Mr. Wuchler and his sons are no longer
constantly at the house, as they were
for two years, and now pursue their daily
labors. Mrs. Wuchler is nursed by her
daughter, Sarah. The neighbors have
long ago ceased to place any confidence
in the story of the fast, anil laugh at it,
but there are many who believe it to be
true.
Alinoht Drowned.
What came nearly being another
drowning accident occurred at the
Honey hole yesterday. Four young men
who refused to give their, names, and
who were under the influence of liquor,
engaged a boat, and when at a point on
the creek known as Port O'Donnell,
w here the water is about ten feet deep,
they began wrestling in the boat anil
capsized it. One of the party struck his
head on the boat and was knocked
senseless into the water, going down
without a struggle. One of his compan
ions, wlie clung to the boat, went down
after him and brought him to the
surface; then, with the assistance of the
capsized boat, made the shore. It
required fully fifteen minutes work
before his companions brought him to
consciousness.
Scrnnton for Congrens.
The Republican congressional prima
ries of Lackawanna county were held
Saturday evening, ane the result shows
that Joe Scranton will be the nominee.
This, how ever, was made certain on Fri
day by the voluntary withdraw! of E. P.
Kingsbury, upon whom the opposition
to Scranton had crystalized. The Tri
bune, William Connell's paper, serves
notice to the Republican party that it
will fight Scranton until the polls are
closed 011 election day if he is nominated.
Connell is jealous because he will not be
nominated, but he is very influential
and can have Scranton defeated and a
Democrat elected.
Caused a Wreck.
A peculiar accident occurred 011 the
Lehigh Valley Railroad at South Wilkes-
Barre. Willie Dugan, a little boy, at
tempted to cross the track in front of a
coal train going at a good rate of speed,
but was struck by the engine, thrown
under the wheels, and his left leg and
right foot was cut off. As the engine
struck the boy the engineer put on the
brakes, and the sudden shock caused the
axle on one of the loaded cars to break
and in a minute twenty-five cars were
piled in a wreck as high asasmall house.
None of the trainmen were hurt.

Cuban Giants Iluve a Gooil Time With
the Freelanil Flayers—The New Club
Hues Not Show Up as Well as Kxpecteil
—Games Flayed oil Saturday.
The Cuban Giants drew over 750 peo
ple to the park yesterday afternoon, and
for a few innings they were treated to
something like base ball. But before
the game progressed very far the colored
gentlemen demonstrated their superior
ity, and after the fifth they played just
as they pleased. White went in the box
in the first inning, and Freeland opened
in old-time style, makiuig three hits and
three runs. The Giants did the same,
and then Stovey took White's place un
til a good lead was obtained. Kitson, of
.Scranton, threw five innings for Free
land, and he was replaced by Mayer, of
Hazleton. The change was not of any
great benefit, however, as the Giants
seemed to have a grudge against the
hall and kept pounding it every inning
until they were tired. The Freeland
players did good work in the field, but a
few costly errors 011 the diamond and
some misplays let in several runs.
Following is the official score:

TrnnpK Called Gut.
Governor Pattison last night called
out the entire National Guard of Penn
sylvania, and gave instructions to have
it proceed immediately to Homestead,
the scene of the great iron strike, it is
not known how the strikers will act
when confronted by soldiers, but many
predict they will resist everybody who
tries to bring imported workmen to the
mills. It is certain much blood will be
shed before the men give in. The
Guard numbers 7270 officers and men,
and all will heat Homestead to-morrow.
What a spectacle to see in the very
heart of "protected" America, where,
according to the Republicans, all work

Chopped Oil' a Finger.
Two small hoys, children of Edward
Jacobs and Daniel Mulreany, of Ridge
street, while playing in the yard on
Saturday attempted to cut a stick.
Wilds the Mulreany boy held it on a
block young Jacobs raised a hatchet, but
before having it to its desired height he
accidentally relensed his hold, and in
descending the axe fell on young Mul
reany's little finger, completely severing
it from the hand. Doctor Murray was
immediately called and sewed the finger
on, which, it is believed will grow into
place again.

IMPROVE THE PARK.
A Correspondent Writes I'pon a Very
Important Subject.
EDITOR TRIBUNE.— It is now more than
two years since the citizens of the bor
ough came into possession of that beauti
ful plot of ground known as the park.
Although the deeds have not been in
possession of the borough authorities un
til recently it may be said the borough
had control of it from the time it was
donated. When Mr. Coxe so generously
gave this piece of ground to the people
of Freeland, he never meant tiiat it
should lie in its natural condition, or lie
would probably have kept it himself. It
was given to the people to improve, to
use to the best advantage for their wel
fare and not to lie a waste, barren place
where no one will go, unless attracted
there by the sounds of a brass band or
the orchestra of a Saturday night picnic.
We call it a park, but it lias not the
least.semblance of one, and to the peo
ple who reside in that immediate vicin
ity, it is nothing hilt a bedlam. On en
tering it persons are liable to injure
themselves by falling into a large gutter
that runs the entire length of it.
Stumps, roots, old logs and stones are
there nearly the same as nature left
them, and 110 effort is made to have
them removed. All interest in it seems
to be lost when it should bo the pride of
the town.
The majority of our people, it appears,
who talk this subject over, are unwilling
to go into print lest they offend the fire
men, who seems to have charge of the
grounds. It is not my intention to
injure or offend the firemen ill any way,
because their services should be appre
ciated, but it must be said that by them
controlling the park they are simply a
drawback on the town", and if tiicy
would relinquish their claim to it, then
the council, or the people as a whole,
might 110 prevailed upon to have it im
proved and used for the benefit of the
public.
The funds of the firemen will hardly
allow an outlay of SSOO or SIOOO to have
the grounds properly fixed up, and even
if their funds would allow it, they are
not the proper parties to have charge of
it, because, as the park is public prop
erty, it should be controlled by men
who are elected to serve the public.
While the firemen are in a measure
public servants (voluntary), the great
value of their services should not be un
derestimated, for what they have al
ready done has been done well and justly
appreciated by the public. When we
ask the firemen lo sacrifice themselves
to protect our lives and property it is
enough, without obliging them to eke out
an existence by charging the public $lO
for the use of that which belongs to all.
This complication of affairs will work
injury to the best interests of the town,
unless the matter is speedily settled at
once and for all time. Tho object of
having a park is not for the sole purpose
of holding moonlight picnics, as this one
is used for. It should be improved by
having seats, walks, water faucets, a
band and dancing pavillion placed in it,
and any other tiling that would add to
tiie comfort of our people who work in
the mines or in the business places of
town. Women who have to attend to
their household duties, religious bodies
who hold services out of doors, etc.,
would all find it a pleasant place to en
joy a few hours' rest after a hard day's
toil. A park of this description is what
the public demands, hut whether its
wishes will be satisfied is a question to
lie answered by those who have been
elected to serve the people and comply
with tiicir demands. CITIZEN.
Metric System in Pharmacy.
In tho new pharmacopoeia now in
course of preparation tho metric weights
and measures will be adopted through
out, to the entire exclusion of tho Eng
lish weights and measures hitherto used.
It is considered by many that this is but
the thin edge of the wedge, and that
sooner or later tho metric weights and
measures will be adopted for all pur
poses in tho United States.
In all the states of South America this
systom and none other is in use, and
there is a growing feeling that an inter
national system of weights and measures
will do much to simplify and develop
the commercial intercourse of the na
tions in question as well as those who
have adopted the metric system in Eu
rope.—Cor. London News.
Insane from Drinking: Coffee.
Peter McKeever, a restaurant keeper,
is in the detention liospitul on complaint
of his wife and a friend, George W.
Couch. At the hospital a straight jacket
[ is necessary to prevent McKeever from
| tearing off his clothes and doing injury
to himself. McKeever is an American,
forty-five years old. "For the last two or
three years," his wife said, "he has taken
scarcely any solid food, but lias subsisted
almost entirely upon coffee. Although
we tried to persuade him to change his
method of living and abstain from cof
| fee, for wo saw that it was impairing
I his mind, we wero nnsuccessful."—Chi

The Queen Gives Away a Goat.
Tho queen lias presented the Second
V. 13. Royal Welsh fusiliers with a
white goat. Colonel Danscook, in com
municating the information to the battal
ion in an order, says he feels assured
that "this most gracious act on the part
of her majesty will tend to strengthen
the feeling of loyalty and attachment
to the throne which exists among all
classes of Welshmen." Can any one ex
plain why in so many instances a goat is
chosen to be the "pet of the regiment?"

Fourth District Democrats.
A cull lias been issued by Matthew
I.ong, chairman of the fourth legislative
Democratic committee, to meet at the
National House, llazleton, on Saturday,
July 10. All the members of the com
mittee are requested to attend.
STOLE THE QUESTIONS.
EXAMINATIONS OF MINE FOREMEN
POSTPONED.
Somebody (lot Away With the Lilt, and
a New Set Must be I'repared - I>etec
tives Looking for the Guilty Persons
Copies Sold at $5 Each.
The examination of applicants for
position as mine foremen in the several
districts was to have been held on Friday
by the mine examing boards, but was
postponed indifinitely owing to the dis
covery that some of the applicants had
secured copies of the questions to be
given them under examination.
Mine Inspector G. M. Williams, the
chairman of the board, had a set of ques
tions printed and took care that the
copies, except those he himself took,
were ail destroyed, lie sent out several
packages to associate examiners several
days ago. Recently a copy was taken
to him with the explanation that it had
been bought for $5. Others were sold at
the same price.
When the mine examining board met
at llazleton to examine the applicants
of this district the matter was brought
to the attention of the members, anu it
was deemed best to postpone the ex
aminations until a new set of questions
could be prepared. The board was
deeply interested in the matter, and
those composing it severely denounced
the person who sold the questions.
Eckley B. Coxe, one of the members,
pointed out the danger that might arise
by holding the examination then, as it
was possible that incompetent persons
had secured the questions and could
easily have enough answers to compel
the board to furnish them with certifi
cates. If they should procure positions
as foremen anywhere it would certainly
result in groat danger to the men under
them.
The matter is now said to be in the
hands of several detectives at Wilkes-
Barre, and the examiners are con
fident they will discover sufficient
evidence to have the guilty persons con
victed and punisheu. It is supposed
the thief is in Wilkes-Barre, where the
questions were printed.
The applicants of this district were
Hon. 0. M. Evans, Stockton; James A.
O'Bonnell, Brifton; John C. Sommers,
Harwood; Alfred Griffiths, Beaver
Brook; W. F. Hamer, Mordecai l'arry,
Jeanesville; Morgan Jenkins, John O.
Ronemus and Morgan O. Morgans,
