FREELAND TRIBUNE. VOL. V. No. 52. HISTORY OF OUR TOWN. FREELAND FIFTY YEARS AGO AND FREELAND TODAY. Wonderful Changes That Have Taken Place Here in Half a Century—First Settlers—Who They Were and How They Came—Our ltapid Growth. It must be of more than passing inter to the people of Freeland and vicinity to know what changes have taken place in this neighborhood within lessthanan ordinaray lifetime, and this fact induces the writer to beg from you sufficient space to give a brief history of the rise and progress of our flourishing borough and its suburbs. It is unnecessary to say that fifty years ago this neighborhood was almost in that state in which the hand of the Crea tor left it, and where now we hear the whistle of the locomotive and the rattle of the railroad car, the silence was broken only by the song of the bird or the howl of the beasts. Where now the broad street is, and stately building stands, there was then only the lofty pine and the sturdy oak. It is true that there was some signs of the work of man, but they were scattered, insignifi cant, and had been abandoned almost entirely. The records of Luzerne county show that on the twenty-ninth day of May, 1842, (now a half a century past), Joseph Birkbeck bought from Joseph P. Leclerc a tract of land known as the Edward Lynch tract and containing about four hundred acres. From this period we may begin to calculate the story of our town. Joseph Birkbeck was then a resident of flazleton and was one of the first skil led miners who came into this region. The year previous, 1841, while spending some time hunting in the then trackless forest between Butler valley and While Haven, he noticed that a certain part of it was well wooded, had plenty of water, and apparently good soil. Being anxious to quit working in the mines he sought the owner and finally purchased it, as before stated, paying for it in silver. This land is the site of Freeland, Woodside and South Heber ton. To demonstrate the difference between then and now it may not be amiss to say that Wilkes-Barre was a two days' jour ney from llazleton, while two hours now conveniently covers the distance. At that time the only buildings on the tract consisted of a small log hut which stood in the present park, near the old spring. This was built by a man named John R. Dean and was used by him and others as the headquarters of a shingle camp. There was also a small hut built by man a named Parks, who made a busi ness of manufacturing maple sugar, and who squatted here, as the northern part of the tract was heavily timbered with sugar maples. A small clearing of less than two acres had also been made, which extended from about the Birk beck brick building down to Washington street. In September, 1842, Joseph Birkbeck removed with his family from llazleton to his recently purchased land and be gan the erection of a log house near the spot where the present old Birkbeck house stands. This was an undertaking different from building a house today, as the trees were growing around the proposed homo when the work was started, and instead of a carload of saw ed lumber to start with, it was necessary to cut down the growing trees and start, as it were, from a state of nature. Teams to haul the logs were obtained from the mining firm of Pardee, Miner & Hunt, who were then working the mines at llazleton. The farmersof But ler valley, with their characteristic good nature, turned out in great force and helped to raise the building, which was the first permanent dwelling ever erect ed on the tract. In order to understand the undertak ing of Mr. Birkbeck in thus becoming a pioneer, I may mention that from his place to llazleton there lived only one family, the Fisher family, near Harleigh, and tne only neighbors were Hannah lveiper, two miles east, and the Krom mes family, at the head of Butler valley, about the same distance west. Travel lers and visitors were like angel's visits —"few and far between." The swift deer, the savage cutamount, and the growling bear were seen far more frequently than the human being. During the winter of 1842 Birkbeck cut down trees, split rails and in the spring of 1843 began clearing his land in earnest. About four hundred yards southwest of the Birkbeck homestead Jacob Smith built a house, but afterwards built art other on top of the hill where he bought a large tract (about thirty acres) from Birkbeck. James Blair built near where the Woodside breaker afterwards stood, and Aaron Howey built on the old White Haven and Butler valley road. These were the original settlers and a very quiet time they had until the Jeddo j saw mill started and the Council Ridge works began; but for long years after wards this neighborhood retained its almost primitive condition. Aaron Howey began the sale of lots in South Ileberton about 1865, and though several lots were sold and some houses erected, it was not until 1870 that the commencement of anything like the present settlement really began. . In August, 1870, August Donop pur chased from Joseph Birkbeck a tract of land which extended from the present Front street to the northern line of the borough, and from Pine and Washing ton streets on the east to the borough line on the west. This he laid out in borough lots and began the sale thereof. The public road from Drifton to Kling er's store passed along the eastern bound ary of this tract and through the lands of Joseph Birkbeck on the south. Joseph Birkbeck began to sell lots south of the Donop tract and the town Boon began to assume something like its present appearance. In 1876 a borough charter was procured, and the name changed from Freehold to Freeland. This was necessary as there is another postoffice called Freehold. In 1883 the Jeddo Coal Company began the sale of lots in the Woodside addi tion, and hot cakes never sold quicker. The rate at which houses were erected was surprising, and it is now the most closely built part of the town. It is difficult to believe that only a few years ago this flourishing spot was in the same condition as the surrounding hill sides. Yet blessed as we are with a good supply of pure water, clear moun tain air, free from malaria or any other unhealthy influence, there is every reason to believe that we will continue to grow in wealth and population until we are the peer of any town in the coal regions. A FREELANDER. For the Jubilee Parade. P. Deiacy, grand marshal of the jubilee parade at Scranton on Thursday next, has issued his order. The formation of the parade will take place at 10.30 in the morning. The formation will be in double column (eight abreast) and will march at half distance. The headquarters of the grand mar shal and his aids will be established at the Scranton House from Bto 11, where all division commanders and marshals of societies may report for instructions, and from whence aids will assign them to their respective positions. The parade will be made up of ten divisions. Luzerne county will be repre sented in the fifth, which is to be com posed of German societies and German parish clubs. The sixth division will be commanded by Hon. John T. Flannery, and will be composed of Luzerne's Ancient Order of Hibernians, American Board. A number of Luzerne societies are as signed positions in the eighth. The Polish socities will compose the ninth and Ital ian societies the tenth. It is expected that there will be from 12,000 to 15,000 men in line, and the managers are con fident that the number would be doubled if it held at a more seasonable time of the year for parading. Jurymen's Big Hills Coroner B. C. Guldin, of Schuylkill county, has refused to pay the fees of James Fitzptrick, Anthony Frank, John Fitzpatrick, George Biltheiser, Milton Boone and George M. Bretz, the jury men who investigated the York Farm colliery explosion about six months ago, in which fifteen men were killed. He claims that they are exhorbitant. The inquest began on July 23, and closed on the 28th of the same month. The claims of the first four jurymen amount to $l3O each or $0 for each of the fifteen men over which they held the inquest. The other two jurymen claim ten days at $1.50 per day or sls. As there were fifteen men over which they held inquests at the rate named above their claim amounts to $225 each or $450 for both. This added to what the other four claim makes a total of $990. The coroner refuses to give them or ders and in consequence four of them have handed their bills to the commis sioners for payment. Washing Culm Ranks. The Reading Company has decided to wash out the immense culm banks that are at Locust Dale and thus Becure the coal that is in them. A big force of carpenters is now at work at the old breaker building sluice ways and mak ing other necessary alterations. Some of the banks were dumped many years ago, when the advantage of secur ing the smaller sizes of coal was not con sidered, and thousands of tons of coal can be taken from them. It is thought that doing this will not necessitate the flooding of the country with coal dirt as is the case generally where washeries exist, asschutes will be built to catch the waste and it will be hoisted up and dumped again. The place will be ready in a few weeks, and it is expected that 200 men and boys will find employment there. The Milnesville Kxplosion. A jury was impaneled in the Milnes ville explosion case by Deputy Coroner Buckley. The verdict rendered was that Domnic Walker and James De- Frank came to their death through then own carelessness in handling dynamite, which carelessness caused the death of Michael Parrish. The list of victims isas follows: Dom nic Walker, 22 years old, married, leaves a wife and child living at Lattimer; Michael Parrish, aged 28, single, resi dence Hollywood; James De Frank, aged 30, residence, Milnesville. The other victim is Mike Marine, who is at the hospital, still alive. Romn fur Them Hero. The White Haven Journal says it is reported that the saloon business in that town does not pay, and that two, if not three, will be closed up when the pres ent licenses expire. White Haven has thirteen licensed places, and if they are anyway crowded j a few of the proprietors might remove to Freeland. We have only sixty-one. PLEASURE CALENDAR.

John Standor, while walking on the Lehigh Valley tracks at Cranberry Junc tion, a short distance above Hazleton, on Friday evening, was struck by engine 101, John Brislin, engineer, and in stantly killed. Detective Brundage notified Deputy Coroner Buckley, who went to llazleton and ordered the body taken to Under taker Boyle's establishment to await identification. On Saturday morning the coroner and Mr. Brundage made inquiries as to his identity. Two checks were found in his pockets, showing that he had worked for Pardee Ac Co. at llazleton, together with $12.11 in money. They also found his brother, who identified the body. Standor was aged 38 years, was a mar ried man, and a wife and four children are in the old country—Russia Poland. After conversing with the crew of the engine and the dead man's boarding mistress it was learned that he and an other man had left the house in the morning, and at that time he was well under the influence of liquor. The man who was with him ran away when he was struck, and when he got home reported that his companion had gone towards Hazleton. The coroner, after hearing these state ments, decided that there was no neces sity for holding an inquest, as the place where the accident occurred is not a public road and the deceased had no business upon the track. The practice of walking along the rail road to and from Cranberry, Mt. Pleas ant, Stockton and other villages to Hazleton should be strictly prohibited. Not alone are the above-named places dangerous, but all tracks should be avoided by pedestrians, as accidents are almost certain to occur, and an unneces sary expense is made for the county by investigating such deaths. Road muster A. B. Welch, of Freeland, informed a representative of the TRI BUNE on Saturday evening that notices would be put up this week between Freeland and Highland and from the foundry switch to Drifton road, caution ing the public against walking on the tracks. The Miracles of Yesterday and Today. Veno is the most popular medicine man in Great Britain, and his reputation is growing like wild-fire in America. Ten million people, including the Free land druggists, praise and recommend Veno's remedies. No matter how bad you are, no matter how many doctors you have visited, when all else fails, Veno's remedies send a dispatch with the rapidity of lightning to the affected parts and disease disappears like smoke in the air. This is to certify that I, Geo. Petrouse, 16(1 Second street, Drifton, have been suffering for twelve months with rheu matism and for the last seven weeks I have been unable to work owing to the pain and stiffness I bad in my shoulders. When I was treated once with Veno's electric fluid I was able to raise my arms above my bead, and swing them about freely without pain, which I had not done in seven weeks I am now cured and have no pain since. Yours truly, GEOROE PITKOUSE. Veno's electric fluid will certainly cure rheumatism, sciatic pains, lame back, neuralgia and tightness of the chest. Veno's curative syrup Is the quickest cure in the world for nervousness, dys pepsia, liver complaint, kidney disease, impure blood and female weakness. Sold atthe)Freeland drugstores. 50cents per bottle. Ask for Veno's and take 4o other. Election of Officer*. At a meeting of Maj. C. B. Coxe Post, No. 147, G. A. It., on Thursday evening, the following officers were elected for the ensuing year: Commander—Henry C. Grossell. Senior vice commander—John Wag ner. Junior vice commander—Henry Fish er. Chaplain—Win. Kishbaugh. Quarter master—George Cutler. Officer of the day—Albert Shive. Officer of the guard—Condy Boyle. Inside guard—David KIOSH. Outside guard—Alexander Allen. Representative to department encamp ment —John Wagner. Alternate—George Cutler. A Farmer Killud. Thomas Dailey, a farmer, waß instantly killed near Waddell'scolliery, at Luzerne borough, on Friday morning, the acci dent causing the fatality being a peculiar one. He was struck by a runaway car 1 which came down a steep grade from | the top of the cull* dump. The car left i the rails about twenty feet in front of him, and lumped completely over the team, landing squarely on the wagon. The A. O. H. Hun Removed. At St. Ann's Catholic church yester day the announcement was made that Bishop O'llara had removed the ban from the Ancient Order of Hibernians. This organization was condemned about fifteen years ago in this diocese, and for many years its members were not al lowed to participate in the sacraments of the Catholic church. The features of the organization which had brought upon it the disapproval of the clergy were long since removed, and the order is now conducted on different principles. This change brought it into favor with many of the priests of the diocese, and for the past three years several of them, including Father Bre hony, of Eckley, and Father McNally, of Freeland, had interceded with the bishop for the restoration of the mem bers' privileges. In nearly all the parishes of the dio cese the priests had already recognized the order as a church society, but this I was not the case here until yesterday. In Freeland there are two branches, Division G, of the Board of Erin, and Division 19, of the Board of America, having a combined membership of about 250.. The action of the bishop, who no doubt was influenced by the hearty manner in which the A. O. 11. is assist ing his jubilee exercises, will affect at least 12,000 members of the order in this diocese and place them in good standing in the church. Looking for More Money. The national Republican committee, through Chairman Thomas H. Carter, ip. sending out most urgent letters to the leaders of the party for funds to pay the deficiency in the national campaign fund. One of those letters to a southern member of the national committee was shown your correspondent. This letter was signed by Chairman Carter and stated that the national committee had a deficiency after the election of nearly $225,000. It stated that at the eleventh hour Republicans discovered ' that defeat was inevitable, and though the campaign committee had kept campaign expenses well within the limits of subscriptions thereto, it was found that subscribers who had pledged a half million dollars to the party refused to fulfill their obli gations, and the result is that the com mittee is urgently pressed to meet debts with an empty treasury. He states that after carefully considering where to get the amount the committee has made an assessment on good party men of an amount sufficient to pay the deficit. The assessment of the man who re ceived the" letter was fixed at SI,OOO. He was asked to collect the money or forward it in five days by check or draft made payable to Duane, treasurer of the committee, at his address in New York. —Mobile Cor. Louisville Courier- Journal. The Popularity of Astrology. It will surprise a large majority of readers to bo told that astrology as a science is not only holding its own in England today, but has during the past ten years made such strides that it is felt by many that the "Rogues and Vagabonds" act, which prevents the casting of horoscopes for gain, will by this next parliament stand a chance of being repealed. A large number of regular profes sional astrologers live in London, and they one and all agree that the science has distinctly become more popular since 1880. Previous to that date they carried on their lioroscopical practice in fear and trembling, but there has been no prosecution of an astrologer, qua astrologer, in England for four years now, the last being at Bow street, when "Neptune," an intuitive seer, was mulcted in five pounds for casting a horoscope; a barrister in court, who had never seen or heard of him before, springing up to defend him gratuitously on the solo ground that he himself was a believer and a practicer of astrology. Six years ago there were no periodicals in England devoted to astrology. There are now three.—Edgar Leo in Arena. Reports of Mine Inspectors. The year 1892 will bring to a close one of the most heartrending chapters in the history of the mine inspectors' reports. Although not yet completed the figures so far obtained show that the past twelve i months have been accompanied by an : unusual number of accidents, and from I many a fireside some one will be missing | this coming Christmas, having paid the I penalty that King Coal demands. The following are unofficial figures from five districts, the three of Scnuyl-: kill county not being included. These ! alone will give our readers an idea of | the cost of mining coal in 1892. These figures will be increased before the year is ended, as there are yet two weeke be fore the official report will be completed. The fifth district is the Lehigh. Accidents. Fatal. Widows.
