NEWS FOR DEMOCRATS.
OVER 5000 POSTOFFICES WILL BE
DISTRIBUTED IN THIS STATE.
But There Ih Only One Plum In Eucli
Town, and That Ih Hardly Enough to
Supply the DemitndM of the Unterrified
—Lint of Presidential Offices.
There are about 5200 postoffices in
Pennsylvania upon which the eyes of
the Democratic faithful are now" cast.
Of these less than 300 pay salaries
above SIOOO year, the balance being
what are known as fourth-class offices
where the postmasters receive commis
sions ranging from SIOO a year up to
SIOOO.
These fourth-class offices are subject
to the operations of the fourth assistant
phstmaster general's axe and the occu
pants of them will have no assurance in
office after the fourth of next March.
The offices ranging above SIOOO a year
and known as first, second and third
class are the principle pinnis sought
after, and the incumbents are appointed
by the president.
The custom has been for the incum
bents of these to be allowed to serve out
a term of four years from the time of
their appointment. Whether this is
semi-civil service arrangement will lie
carried out by Cleveland remains to be
seen.
The follow'ng is a list of the offices in
this part of the state which pay more
than SIOOO a year, together with the date
of the expiration of the terms of the
present incumbents. The salaries now
paid in them are also given.
The two principal ones are those at
Philadelphia and Pittsburg, each of
which is worth SOOOO a year.

As may be seen above the commission
of Postmaster Fowler, of this place, will
not expire until March, 1894, unless a
change is made previous to that date.
The only names mentioned yet as his
probable successor are those of Ex-Post
niaster Wm. F. Boyle, who served under
Cleveland, and I). J. McCarthy.
For the Ilazleton office it is said that
Anthony Reilly, the late Democratic
nominee for the legislature, will be a
candidate.
A One-Sided Deal.
Anthony Reilly, of Hazleton, indig
nantly denies that there were any deal
between Senator-elect Kline and himself
in the fourth district during the late elec
tion. lie further states that he was
zealously for the whole ticket, Wright
included, and that the charges that he
was not so are unfounded and calculated
to do him injury.
Mr. Reilly may be right, but as our
information came diect from Republicans
who were in the deal and openly avowed
it, we thougiit that pretty good evidence
to base the charge on. The fact that
the district went overwhelmingly for
Kline also lends strong llavor to the
story, and we cannot really see how we
can do othewise than accept it.
That Mr. Kline secured such a large
vote from all parties in the late election,
and that Mr. Reilly followed so closely
oil his heels is due to the feeling for a
new county that exists in Hazleton, both
of whom were pledged to favor it.
Mr. Kline was elected, but Sir. Reilly
was not, because there were hundreds
outside of Ilazleton who did not favor a
new county and voted for Jeffrey, who
was against it. Their vote looked to be
the result of a combination between
thein, and, if it was not, an injustice was
done Mr. Reilly in charging him with
it.— Neimdetilcr.
Wliut the "Ledger" Thinks of It.
"The Merry Cobbler" recently play
ed a week in Philadelphia, ami the
■Ledger commented upon it as follows:
Its lirst production in this city was
given last evening before a good sized
and very appreciative audience.
It is certainly an amusing musical
comedy, and has a plot that keeps the
spectator interested until the end.
The chief character, that of Franz, the
cobbler, is drawn somewhat upon the
Emmet order, and wus well essayed by
John R. Cumpson.
He waß easy and graceful, and proved
himself besides a pleasing singer.
He was surrounded by several cute
children, who did some clever dancing,
and Kittle Roßebud, who sang quite a big
song for so small a girl.
The supporting company was well
balanced, and the specialites were very
much enjoyed.

SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
FREELAND, November 21, 1892.
In the little borough of East Haven,
Carbon county opposite White Haven,
two gentlemen from this town witnessed
a scene contrary to the laws of this
commonwealth. The worthy constable
of that prosperous little village forcibly
removed the children and furniture of a
poor hut honest widow to Tannery, two
miles distant, and unloaded them on a
lot adjoining the L. V. R. R. tracks.
This took place on Friday, November
11, and was the moßt cowardly and un
called for act of a law officer ever per-
petrated. The rent was paid in advance
for the month and when the owner of
the key demanded the same he could
not get it till the furniture was removed.
That high functionary, the constable,
feared the lady would become a charge
on his borough, and took this means to
prevent the s ime.
Her rent and store bill was paid each
month promptly by Daniel McCloud, of
Tannery. Since this unpleasant little
affair Mr. McCloud, has removed the
widow's children and furniture.
A costly and lengthy suit at the
county court at Mauch Chunk is likely
to follow in consequence. In this event,
the borough would pay dearly for the
act of a too officious officer.
We know of no law to remove a person
out of a house when the rent is paid,
again, allowing a brute to use force on a
defenseless widow. The courts will pro
bably decide this case and most likely
punish the unprincipled offender.
Going; to an Honpltal.
Hugh Dennion, of Ridge street, will
leave tomorrow morning for the Penn
sylvania hospital, Philadelphia, wtiere
he will undergo treatment for his left
knee. For several years he has suffered
from severe pain in that part of his leg,
and, although many physicians have
examined it, none could give him any
relief.
It is known exactly what the trouble is,
but it is thought the knee-cap was dis
placed about fifteen years ago while he
was jumping of a train off coal cars.
About ten years ago he went to the
University hospital, Philadelphia, where
he was put under treatment for some
time, but no effectual benefit was deriv
ed from the visit. Several physicians
have since tried to cure him, but were
unsuccessful.
The pain during the past few years was
so severe as to cause him to cease work,
and recently became much worse. He
now intends to place himself under the
Pennsylvania doctors in hope of receiv
ing a permanent cure. He will be ac
companied to Philadelphia by D. J.
Ferry.
Twenty-fifth Anniversary.
The twenty-fifth anniyersary of the
wedding of Mr. and Mrs. William J.
Eckert was celebrated on Thursday even
at the Cottage Hotel, where over 200 in
vited gueßts had assembled to do honor
to the occasion.
Rev. H. A. I. Benner delivered an ad
dress of welcome, after which John I).
Hayes, in a short speech, presented to
Mr. Eckert and wife a very handsome
lea set, a gift from several of their
friends. Numerous other costly pres
ents were given by the guests.
At 12 o'clock an elegant supper was I
served in the dining room. One of the
leading articles on the menu was roast
hear, which was sent here from New
York state last week by a friend of tlio
couple.
Dancing then commenced and con
tinued for several hours. Before leaving
for their homes the guests extended to
Mr. and Mrs. Eckert their congratula- j
tions and many wishes that both may j
live to enjoy the fiftieth anniversary of j
their wedding.

Jacob Ciomer Found Not Guilty.
The trial of Jacob Gomer, of Nanti
coke, for the murder of John Supka, a
Hungarian, of that place, on June 29
last, was concluded on Thursday, and
after a deliberation of three hours the
jury returned a verdict of not guilty. \
As the verdict was announced all eyes ]
were turned on the prisoner to see what
effect it would have on him, but he was
perfectly calm, retaining the same com
iiosure which from the first had marked
iiis behavior.
He left the court room immediately
after he was discharged, and took the
first train for his home and rejoined the
family from which lie has been absent
four and a half months.

ed the track, when one of them suddenly
went in an unexpected direction and
taught his leg with the above result.

CURED BY FAITH.
WilkeH-llttrru Has a Man Who llniiiNlten
All KindH of Dltteases.
Wilkes-Barre is excited over some
wonderful faith cures performed by a
man calling himself "The Healing Evan
gelist," wiio has been healing persons
there who for years have been sick.
The lirst service was held Thursday
night at the Zion M. E. Church. After
a sermon by the healer a large number
of sick persons were treated by laying
on of hands, and some very remarkable
results were obtained.
Among his cures it is said that several
deaf persons were made to hear; several
were freed entirely from rheumatic
pains and stiffness. A man with heart
disease suddenly felt the heart beating
naturally. Another unable to bend his
back from lumbago and sciatica quickly
and easily stepped to and from the floor.
A worn am in an agony of extreme
pain instantly declared her anguish had
gone. A man nearly blind said his
sight was greatly helped, and then he
correctly described objects fifteen feet
distant, which was impossible before.
Another meeting was held on Friday
and the little church could not hold the ,
large crowd which assembled to see the
wonderful healer. After discourses by
the pastor and Rey. P. Warnon many
treated the previous evening arose and
emphatically testified that the benefits
they obtained continued permanently, j
A large number of new patients were
treated. Ensign Wedeman, 45 years,
totally deaf, instantly heard a whisper,
and the same happened to the totally
deaf ears of T. Davenport, E. Evans and
several others. William Lane said his
asthmatic symptons were instantly re
moved.
Mrs. L. Reese's withered and totally
powerless arm was relieved instantly,
and she raised it to her head and the
long, bent and crooked fingers were
loosened and straightened. Mrs. 8.
Win coin's rheumatic pains ceased right
away. Mrs. M. Butter's chronic neural
gia left her at once. Mrs. Brenner's
rheumatism yieided and for the first
time in years she knelt, rasied her feet
to a chair seat and ran and jumped like
a girl.
William Hayden's lost speech was
greatly helped, and his rheumatic feet,
that he could not raise, were so helped
that he jumped on and off a chair and
then ran and leaped. Scores of toiler
equally striking results are said to have
been obtained.

Doing Soiue InvextigHting.
Joseph Moore, Esq., Luzerne county
commissioners' solicitor, was here on
Friday endeavoring to find out among
the saloon keepers how many of them
had paid money to Constable Daniel
Gallagher, of Wilkes-Barre.
It will be remembered that a number
of the saloon men were arrested by this
| constable last summer, charged with vio
! lating the liquor laws, but when the mat-
I ter went before the grand jury everyone
i of the bills were ignored.
! After lodging information it is said
that Gallagher made a "settlement"
with some of the accused men, and then,
when the grand jury took action upon
his report, he turned in against the
county a bill of $217 for xpensees.
The commissioners, however, are not
paying out money just now to everybody

solcitor to this place was for the purpose
of investigating Gallagher's claim.

Stopped His Paper.
Nowdays when a subscriber gets so
mad because an editor differs with him
on some trivial question that lie discon
tinues his paper, we remind him of a
good anecdote of the late Horace Greely,
the well known editor of the New York
Tribune.
Passing down Newspaper Row in New
York city one morning, he met one of
his readers, who exclaimed;
"Mr. Greely, after the article you
published this morning, I intend to stop
your paper."
"On, no!" said Mr. Greely, "don't
do that."
"Yes, sir, my mind is made up. I in
tend to stop the paper."
The angry subscriber was not to be
appeased, and they separated. Late in
the afternoon the two met again, when
Mr. Greely remarked:
"Mr. Thompson, I am very glad you
did not carry out your threat this morn
ing."
"What do you mean?"
"Why, you said you were going to
'stop my paper' didn't you?"
"And so i did. 1 went to the office
and had your paper stopped."
"You are surely mistaken; I have just
come from there, and the press was run
ning and business was booming."
"Sir," said Thompson, very pomp
ously, "I meant I intended to stop my
subscription to your paper."
"Oh, thunder!" rejoined Greely; "I
J thought you were going to stop the run
j ning of my paper and knock me out of a
I living. My friend let me tell you some
tiling: one man is just one drop of water
in the ocean. You didn't set the ma
chinery of this world in motion, and yon
can't stop it, and when you are under-
I neath the ground things upon the sur-
I face will wag on the same as ever."
