F REEL AND TRIBUNE. VOL. V. No. 70. TERMS OF THE COUNCIL. WHAT THE BOROUGH ASKS FOR GRANTING THE RIGHT OF WAY. Copy of the Ordinance That Was Drawn Up to Govern the Klectric Railway Company—A Matter of Importance to the Citizens of the Town. Below will be found a copy of the or dinance drawn up by the members of the Freeland council, and which has been sent out for the inspection of the Hazleton and North Side Company and the Union Passenger Company. If the terms and provisions of it are acceptable to both companies it is expected that the right of way will be granted to one of the applicants at the next regular monthly meeting, which will he held on March 6. Inasmuch as the ordinance has been given out to the companies the TRIBUNE deemed it but just to the people of town to acquaint them with its conditions, and we publish it complete, in order that all may understand it well before it is pass ed by. council. It is a matter that every citizen should consider, and if there are any who be lieve the council has been too lenient or too strict in drawing the ordinance we would he pleased to give them space to make known their objections. The councilman, we believe, are unani mously in favor of an electric road, but at the same time the granting of the right of way is a valuable franchise that should not he given without procuring something in return. Neither did they believe in rushing the matter through with unnecessary haste until they could cover every point that has caused trouble in otherboroughs and cities, nor did they wish to cause trouble between the companies hy giving the right of way over the same ground to both, as was done in Foster. If the company that is successful in obtaining the use of the streets will live up to the ordinance Freeland will have a road extending direct to Highland, Drifton, Upper Lehigh and Eckley with in a year or so. This, with the other re strictions contained in the ordinance, will be of great advantage to the town us well as a guarantee that the road will be built. Taking it all the way throuh we be lieve it will satisfy the majority of the people as well as both companies. The following is a complete copy of the or dinance: An ordinance to authorize the to lay tracks and operate its road upon certain streets within the borough of Freeland. Be it ordained and enacted hy the burgess and town council of the borough ■of Freeland, in council met, and it is hereby enacted hy authority of the game. SECTION 1.

AFTER MANY YEARS. Tlio ruinous Sliepp-Coxe Laml Ejectment Suit Is Knded At Lust. The famous Shepp-Coxe land- eject ment suit, which has been in the courts for the past seventeen years, has at last ended, and reyerted to its rightful owners. Controversy about this land, which is located in the northern part of Schuylkill county, began in 1875, when Daniel Bitler ami Nelson Brandon took possession of land owned hy Eckley B. Coxe. Mr. Coxe immediately brought suit to recover possession and in 1882, after a lapse of seven years, recovered a verdict from a jury in his favor. The sheriff dispossessed the intruders and delivered possession of the land to Mr. Coxe. As it takes two final judgements in eject ment cases to establish a title to land, Messrs. Dull and Shepp, who had ac quired title of Brandon and Bitler, brought the second action of ejectment against Mr. Coxe in Majy, 1885. The case was tried at Pottsville in 1890, after a lapse of five years. The trial continued ninety-one days and a verdict was rendered on April 30, 1891, in favor of Mr. Coxe and his company owners. The case was then appealed to the su preme court. Messrs. Dull and Shepp, who lost the case before the jrtfy, being unwilling to contest longer for the land, signed and filed an agreement in the su preme court that the verdict in favor of Eckley B. Coxe and his company owners should be affirmed. Mr. Coxe, having obtained two final judgments, title to the land in controversy is settled forever. LiHt of Patents.

Cases against Albert Buttncr and Frank Czorga, of South Bethlehem, charged with violation of the license law, had to go over a term in the North hampton county courts by reason of the destruction of evidence. Parties had bought liquor at their places in larger quantities than their license permitted them to sell and were going with it, as witnesses, to court at Easton. On their way they drank it all and thus the prosecution had no evidence. FREELAND, LUZERNE COUNTY, PA., FEBRUARY 20, 1893. ELECTION EYE GOSSIP. CANDIDATES LOOKING UP VOTERS FOR TOMORROW'S BATTLE. Freeland Will Have IU Usual Quiet Time, Hut None Can Predict the Re sult in This Independent Town—Politic* In the Townships. For the past few days the local states men haye been doing some hard cam paigning, as such a thing is positively necessary in this borough, where, judg ing from past elections, party lines dis appear like a mist on the morning of every February election. The Demo cratic majority on state and national issues was only about 20 last November, but the voters have no respect for ma jorities on local questions, and while a few of the nominees of each party mav get the regular vote the fate of the greater portion of the ticket is decided by the personality of the candidates. The ticket named at the Democratic caucus seemed to have given the mem bers of the party entire satisfaction, and no open opposition has so far been mani fested toward any of the nominees Our Republican friends, however, do not appear VJ be so fortunate in satify ing the members of the party in making the ticket, and threats to '"cut" have been very numerous on that side for the past week. The Democratic nominees stand a very good chance of all being elected, hut the independent voters are so thick here that no one would risk his reputation as a prophet in predicting the result of tomorrow's battle. In Hazle the outlook for the Demo crats is very favorable, although a hard fight is being made upon school director and tax collector. Owing to the large majority of the party there the few dis satisfied kickers will hardly be able to overturn the choice of the convention, and 110 serious danger is apprehended by the township committee. Since the withdrawl of Foster's inde pendent condidate for tax collector, Pat rick J. Gallagher, the success of the en tire ticket is assured. The Republicans of course are making a strong tight, but when it comes down to political skill they are no match for the Democratic committee, which is composed of some of the shrewdest politicians in the county. Although Mr. Gallagher's name ap pears on the official ballot it is under stood he is out of the field, and good Democrats will give their support to Mr. Brehm, the regular nominee. The Deniocretic committee has had 700 specimen ballots printed, showing bow to mark a straight Democratic ticket. These have been distributed throughout the nine districts of the township in order that the members of the party will know how to vote without making any mistakes. MulteNe Heor. Maltese beer is the name of a beverage manufactured by a firm in Philadelphia, where it has a large sale among temper ance people and others who do not use intoxicants. It is said to be one of the purest and safest drinks made, and though it has a taste much similar to lager beer, there is no danger of it taking the same effect, no matter how much of it is drank. About a year ago a test case was made by parties charging the manufacturers of Maltese with selling fermented liquor, and the internal revenue officials were called upon to compel the manufacturers to take out a brewers license and pay the tax upon the product. The revenue officers procured samples of Maltese, and after making a thorough analysis of it decided that it was an unfermented, non-alcholic and non-intoxicating bever age. It is put up in kegs or bottles, and can be drawn like beer. It foams like beer, lookH like beer, tastes like beer, but it is not beer. It is an excellent drink to be kept for private use in the family or to be sold by societies at picnics where in toxicants are not allowed. It will also be on sale at the different saloons in a few weeks. John Dusheck, of Freeland, has been given the agency for Freeland, White Haven, Hazleton, and all other towns in lower Luzerne. * Resolutions of Condolence. Whereas, God in his infinite wisdom hus called from the mortal paths of life our brother and friend, Daniel Cotner furd, therefore be it Resolved, That in his death the St. Mary's T. A. 11. Cadet Society of Eckley has lost a brother member whose zeal in the holy cause was ever worthy of the highest emulation, and whose kindness of heart and sterling earnestness stood as a bright example to others, and could not but have been a great influence in i aid of the principles of Father Mathew. Resolved, That the community in which he resided is bereft of u bright, industrious and trustworthy young man, whose uniform kindness to all has left behind him a memorv that will not be soon forgotten. And be it further Resolved, That our heartfelt sympa thy be extendeil to the bereayed family of our deceased brother, and we pray that God may comfort them in their heavy afflictions. Be it also Resolved. That these resolutions be published in the FREELAND TRIBUNE, and that a copy be presented to the family of our deceased brother. JOHN E. SHEARON, Pres. JOHN F. O'DONNELL, Secty. Cocking Main*. A cocking main between Lansford and Allentown sports was fought at Hazleton on Friday night for $3(10 a side. Lans ford won four battles straight, lost two, then won another, thereby winning the main. Several hundred dollars changed hands during the evening, and the sport ing fraternity of the coal region was well represented. On Saturday evening two birds from Highland and Upper Lehigh were pit ted against one another in one of the sporting houses of town. The Highland bird won in a short while. The battle was for $lO a side. ST. PATRICK'S DAY. Preparations lleiug Made to Have a Large Demonstration at Freeland. St. Patrick's Day, March 17, will bring to Freeland the largest crowd of people that has ever assembled here to cele brate the anniversary of Ireland's pa tron saint, if the plans and preparations that are now under way will be success ful. A movement was started a few weeks ago by Division 19, A. O. 11., to have a general parade of the Catholic societies of the Lehigh region at this place next month, and the idea was unanimously approved yesterday by the general committee of the societies of St. Ann's parish. The committees from the societies met at the church and organized by electing John J. McNelis as chairman and D. S. Buckley as secretary. It was decided to hold the parade in the after noon, and all societies will be in line and ready to march at 2 o'clock. Invi tations to parade here will be extended to every Catholic society in White Haven, F.ckley, Hazleton, Audenried, Beaver Meadow, Harleigh, Jeanesville, Mancti Chunk, Lansford and Summit Hill. In Hazleton ami other places the par ades will be held in the forenoon, and arrangements will he made to procure special trains to Freeland from all sur rounding towns. One delegate from each society was appointed to act with the secretary as a committee on invitation, and the follow ing were chosen: Young Men's, P. J. Brislin; Division (!, A. O. 11., John B. Quigley; Division 19, A. O. 11., Thos. J. Boyle; St. Ann's, D. J. Kennedy; Pion eer Corps, James P. McNelis; St. Pat rick's, James Harkins. The general committee will meet again on Sunday at 3 p. m. Dangers of the Nomton. The sudden changes in the weather in the latter part of the winter and early spring are a source of coughs and colds. This season is a particularly dangerous pne for persons with weak lungs or of delicate constitution. A slight cold is likely to become a serious one, and the cough that follows is the one great cause of the many deaths from consumption in the early spring. Never neglect a cold or cough. Keep a reliable remedy on hand and cheek the first cough, that may lead to con sumption. As such a remedy the medi cine called Kemp's Balsam is strongly recommened. For every form of throat and lung disorder, including the la grippe cough, croup and consumption in first stages, it probably has no equal any where. Get a bottle today. "The Criminal Type." An important result of the congress at Brussels on criminal anthropology has been the discrediting of the so called "criminal type," or habitual criminal. The person who was born a criminal, and must be one, "nolens volens," was supposed to liavo a smaller capacity of skull than the average, a more retreat ing forehead, the back of the head large, tho lower jaw very strong and pro nounced, the ears often deformed, tho hair coarse and thick, the beard scanty, etc. Dr. Tarnovski, of St. Petersburg, and Dr. Naecke, from a very large collection of data, maintained that there was no special peculiarity in the physique of criminal!), male or femulc, and the general tendency of > the papers read and discus sions on the subject was to regard crime as the result of social and psychical rather than physical peculiarities.—Man chester Times. Sontling Flowers. Juat a y/ord or two about the packing of flowers, facts, if you want your gift to arrive almost as fresh as when you picked tlicm. If you desire to send roses, insert the cut stems into a raw potato, and the inoisturo will keep them from wilting, while tho flowers themselves should be wrapped in wax paper. For small blossoms, such as violets, sweet peas or orange flowers, pack them closely in damp moss, but never wet tho flow ers themselves. Cover always with waxed paper, and in case yiru can pro cure a tin or lightweight wooden box it will insure their safe arrival, as a paste board box is apt to get broken.—St. Louis Republic. Effect of the Interstate Law. A granger riding in the cars stuck his head out of the window. "Better put your head in," said tho conductor. The granger obeyed, and then turned to the man behind him and said, "Why can't I put my head out?" "You might knock Borne of the telegraph poles down," was the answer. "Oh, that's it. Woll, if they're so mighty 'fraid of a few old poles, I'll keep my head in. That's the way on tho railroads since that new law went into effect."—New York World. Kxcusable. "How is my wagon getting along?" asked the butcher. "You've had it six weeks." "All ready but the wheels. They're not tired yet," returned the wagon maker. "Well, they ought to be; they've been waiting so long," said the butcher.- PLEASURE CALEhIDAR. February 25—Entertainment by P. 0.

A genuine blizzard struck town last night, and the mercury was down to seven below zero this morning. The remarkable part of the storm was the thunder and lightning accompaniments. Committees from the Young Men's, the Pioneer Corps and the Emmet Social Club met yesterday and discussed ways and means to build a hall. No definite action was taken on any of the plans presented. Hugh Malloy, who was mentioned last week as having killed a large cata mount, will receive $2 for his trouble from the county commissioners, that being the bounty paid by the state. He also shot four foxes, for which he will receive $1 each. Itisreported that Fred. Horlacher, the Ridge street bottler, will retire from business here after March 1, and remove the fixtures of the establishment to Allentown. The building will be occu pied by the Lebanon Brewing Company as a storehouse for its agent, Stahl & Co. llow often we hear middle-aged people say regarding that reliable old cough remedy, N. H.

The appraisers of RockafeHow's broken bank at Wilkes-Barre have figured out that depositors will get about nine and one-half per cent, of their money. The feeling against the head of the firm is very strong, as the majority of the 857 depositors were hard-working people, miners, farmers and small business men. Entering Portland Harbor. This is the time of year when tho storm tossed mariner should never be over con fident that he is safely and certainly within Portland harbor. Again and again vessels almost ready to poke their noses past House island have been driven off tho shore by a wintry northeaster, and with rigging iced, crew despairing, have been whirled off the coast for (lavs, driven sometimes hundreds of miles away. Even a land lubber can realize how men would feel under these condi tions after they had drawn almost near v nough to the homo fireside to feel its warmth. It was only a little while ago that a Portland captain, returning from a long voyage, had worked his vessel well up to the harbor's mouth. Then in his profound reliof he resigned the ship into the hands of his men, went below and proceeded to acquire unto himself a load that sagged that part of tho ship mightily. So when that north easter came down past old Seguin tho captain didn't know a gale from a tune on a jewsharp. Tho nose of the plung ing ship worked about slowly, but steadily, and in 15 minutes tho vessel was flitting away to tho south, squarely away from homo and comfort. Tho captain never sobered off so quickly in all his life, but it was no use; he was in for it. For nine days they struggled with a raging sea, hundreds of miles off the coast, with icod rigging stiff as iron, and suffering everything but death. When the storm abated, and tho captain finally toiled weakly into Portland har- | bor, ho was Bober—there's not the least, doubt about that.—Lewiston Journal. | When Baby was sick, we gave her Castorla.
