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

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.

Drank the Evidence.
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.

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.-

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. |
