When the champion made 90 miles in 6h. 25in. 37 3-ss. the crowd could hardly be I I restrained. On his 92d mile he met with an accident which nearly put him out of the race. A small boy darted out of the crowd on one side of the track and at- j tempted to cross just as Donoghue came like wind down the long stretch. The boy ; i collided with the champion and was knocked 20 feet in one direction, while Donoghue fell backward, wrenching one , knee and cutting his lip. His brother was 1 at his side and helped him to his feet. He i was unsteady for a moment, but pulled ! ; himself together and gradually resumed , his former gait.

THE DUNKIRK STRIKE FAILS. The Men Will Be Taken Back Where Their Places Are Nut Filled. DUNKIRK, N. Y., Jan. 31.—The strike at the Brooks Locomotive works is ended be yond a doubt. The strikers themselves acknowledge that their case is hopeless. The strike fell flat when the Brooks peo ple demonstrated that they could run the works with outside men. Many of the old men have returned, and in a day or two the full complement of workmen will have been enrolled and the making of locomo tives move along as before. President Hiuman says the old men can return if they wish to, but that competent workmen now employed will not he discharged to make room for them. Everything is quiet around the works. Mr. Carnegie Talks. PITTSBURG, Jan. 30.—Ever since the ar rival of Mr. Andrew Carnegie from Europe he has been besieged by newspaper men for an expression upon the recent troubles at Homestead, but he steadfastly refused to be interviewed. In conversation with a reporter, however, Mr. Carnegie talked freely on the subject. "1 did not come to Pittsburg," said he, "to rake up but to try to bury the past, of which I knew nothing. That is beyond re call. It should be banished as a horrid dream, and only the lessons that it teaches laid to heart for the future. For 26 years our concerns have run with only one labor stoppage at one of its numerous works, and I trust aud believe that even this rec ord will be fully equaled in the 25 years to come. When employer and employed be come antagonistic, each considering the other its enemy, it is a contest between twin brothers. There is no genuine victory possible for either, but defeat for both capital and labor. "I desire now, once for all, to make one point clear. Four years ago I retired from active business. No consideration in the world would induce me to return to it. A great error of our countrymen is that they endure the harassing cares incident to business until they break down in the har ness. when they should be in their prime, and die still striving for dollars. I believe In retiring betimes and giving younger men a chance. I have sold portions of my in terests and am gradually selling more to such young men in our service as my part ners find possessed of exceptional ability and desire to interest in the business. I am not an officer in the company, but only a shareholder." An Oyster Captain Sentenced. BALTIMORE, Jan. 81.—Captain Lee Rob erts of an oyster schooner was convicted of the charge of cruelty and sentenced to jail for three months. In imposing sentence Judge Morris said the story told by the prisoner would be sufficient to convict. l'ardon For Murderer Nichols. NYACK, N. Y., Jan. 27.— Patrick Nichols, the slayer of Thomas O'Connor on July 3, 1879, was pardoned by Governor Flower. Nichols was convicted of murder. The death penalty was commuted to imprison ment for life. Arrest of Anarchists In PaJs. PARIS, Jan. 30.—Several anarchists were arrested. Stolen explosives were found in their possession.

' THE DEAD STATESMAN BACK TO !■ MOTHER EARTH. i Private Funeral and Burial at the ItequeHt r Mrs. Bluine-Service* at the Church of the Covenant-The JSH tate Valued at sKOO.uo<). WASHINGTON, Jan. *so.—The body of the late ex-Secretary Blaine was removed tc the parlor oil the north sjide of the second floor of the residence. The windows of this room open out upon Lafayette square, one of the most delightful spots in Washing ton. Across this plot of ground stauds the state, war and navy building, where the dead nian achieved his latest triumphs in statecraft and diplomacy. A number ol Mr. Blaine's friends called at the house and took a last look upon the face of the departed. The expression of the face was peaceful, and the lineaments of that well known countenance showed but few traces of the ravages of the disease that carried him off. The casket was almost buried under the mass of floral tributes which have been received, many of them from a distance. The first prayers of the funeral services were said by Rev. Dr. Tenuis S. Hamlin, D. D., of the Church of the Cove nant at 11 o'clock. Notwithstanding the fact that the fu neral was a private one, the attendants upon the service were as truly national in their representative character as if a presi dent were being buried. The state of Maine sent a delegation of 14, headed by Governor Cleaves; Massachusetts a delegation of 5 members. The Union League club of New York sent 25 of its membt'vs to represent the organization, and the Union League ! club of Philadelphia 20. From various other points in Pennsylvania came several delegates of various societies and organiza tions. Altogether 100 or more of these rep resentatives were present. Personal friends to the number of 05 were present from va rious parts of the country. Mrs. Garfield was there and others from cities as widely separated as Portland and Omaha. The Maine delegation was invited to attend the services at the house. Not more than 40 or 50 persons were present. Services at the Church. The services at the church as well as those at the house were strictly private, j and no one was admitted who had not re ceived an invitation. The family regret- I ted that this was necessarily so, as they appreciated the desire and the motives of the people who would pay a tribute of re ; spect by their presence to one whose life has been so closely identified with the his | tory of the country. I But the limited seating capacity of the church and the large number of the dcle- I gations and officials to be provided for left no room for the general public. I The first eight rows of seats in the main body were occupied by the family, the rela- I tives and the pallbearers. Behind them i in order were seated the president, vice I president, cabinet officers, Speaker Crisp ! and members of the supreme court, with their families. In the rear of these were j senators and representatives, j On the south side of the church were ■ seated the members of the various delega- I tions aud on the north side the personal i friends. | The pallbearers were Senators W. P. ; Frye and Eugene Hale of Maine and John i T. Morgan of Alabama, Representatives Thomas B. Heed and C. A. Boutello of I Maine, Robert K. Hitt of Illinois and Henry H. I Bingham of Pennsylvania; General I Thomas Ewingof Ohio, John Hay of Wash ; iugton, Joseph H. Manley of Maine, Albert F. Jenks of Brooklyn, P. V. P. Ely of Bos ton. Mr. Blaine left a will bestowing all his property upon Mrs. Blaine and making her sole executrix without bonds. The total value of the estate is estimated at j £BOO,OOO. HIGHLAND DOTS. If this should Btrike the eve of Con gressman llines, we would respectfully j ask him to try and do something for the ! residents of this place in the way of ! postoflice facilities. In these days of : steam and electricty two miles are en- j tirely too far to walk to a postoflice for I a letter or a paper. When this system was established about twenty-live years I ago, which is now in use, few letteis were written or papers read, but at pres- j ent the people are more enlightened) and newspapers containing the happen- : ings of the day are eagerly sought for. j But alas! we are not in- it. If Mr. Hines will call the attention of the pos- i tal authorities to this matter when he goes to Washington, the favor will never j be forgotten. Alike Selensky, the man who was waylaid about ten days ago, is slowly recovering. Some of the residents here make themselves uncommonly friendly with their neighbors' coal bins after dark. The company is having the houses at. the slope and "Peggy's Patch" greatly improved in comfort and' appearance. Besides being newly weather-boarded, they are receiving a general overhauling inside. Thos. J. O'Donnell, formerly employ- j od at the Lehigh Valley station, Free- ' land, has accepted a position operating! for the D. S. &S. at Ilarwood. He will take hold on Monday. Thos. Petitt moved his family to Stockton this week. John Murrin was able to go to his home in South Heberton on Monday. Chas. Grossman, of Sandy Hun, was here on Sunday among friends. The sleighing party which was to leave here last week fell through. The reasons are not given. William Brease is able to be about again. Robert Oliver, of Sandy Run, was here over Sunday with bis parents. Robert Perry, of liar wood, secured employment here and intends making this his home for the future. Joseph Norak removed his family to Jermyn, Lackawanna county, last week. A corps of civil engineers from Hazle ton completed a survey of the mines here this week. Frank Walk, of Jeddo, was here look- ' ing up business on Monday. Patrick Murrin is on the sick list at present. We have beard of many narrow es capes this week from being caught by highwaymen, but believe them all to be untrue, although we know that many of the persons who made the escapes be- ! lieve it is better to be a living coward I than a dead hero. 1 Financial Statement of the AUDITORS OF FOSTER TWP.
