JEDDO NEWS.
Our quiet little town was the scene of.
a great pugilistic battle on Saturday by '
two well-known men from a neighboring
town. They hammered and battered
each other in royal style, not because
they were angry, but for the love of a j
scrap. If these gentlemen will come
and give us another exhibition of their
brutality perhaps we may be able to
nise a purse large enough to send them
to Wilkes-Barre to interview one of the
judges there.

Some of the people here wonder very

Jnen steal away and wander in that Bee-1

i A Narrow Escape from Death.
1 Revs James A. Brehony, pastor of St.
John's church, Manayunk, Philadelphia,
and who is a brother of Rev. Thus.
Brehony, of Eckley, was out driying
ne.ir that city on Thursday afternoon
with Rev. Michael J. Mcßride, of
Bonneauville, Adams county, Pa., and
were about to cross the traik of the
i Norristown Railroad when the horse,
which was a spirited animal, became
frightened and ran away. The horse
instead of crossing the track run up the
railroad.
Before the two clergymen could make
any effort to escape from their perilous
position, they weie horrified to see an
up train coming toward them. It had
not been visible until it was almost upon
the huggv on account of a sharp curve.
In the collision tiiat followed, the buggy
was completely wrecked, the horse was
killed, and the two priests were thrown
to the side of the track.
Both of them were hurt, but for
tunately, not very seriously. They
suffered some pain about the chest and
back, but as they were able, with assist
ance, to stand and walk a little, it is
thought that this was only the effect of
the shock, and some comparatively
slight bruises,
j The escape of the reverend gentlemen
is considered most remarkable, as the
train was going at high speed, and the
wagon was almost directly in the path of
the engine. The bank on which the
priests were thrown was of earth, and
this probably was an important factor in
saving them, and Father Brehony's
many friends here are pleased to learn
that the accident was not of a more
serious nature.

Encouragement from White Haven.
Freeland people want the Jersey Cen
tral to extend its Upper Lehigh or Drif
ton branch into that town. This should !
have been done years ago, as the rail
road woilld receive much traffic that now !
goes to its competitors, and the exten
sion could lie made at small expense,
i Our neighbors should bring the matter
to the attention of Mr. Harris, of the
Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company,

ALL FOR THE CENTRAL.
A Petition to tho Officials Received Over
One Hundred Signature*.
The movement inaugurated a few
weeks ago to induce the Jersey Central
Railroad Company to extend its tracks
from Upper Lehigh or Drifton to Free
land has been brought to the attention
of the officials of the company once
more, and it is accompanied this time
by a petition containing 118 names of
Freeland people. With the exception
of ten or twelve persons the signers are
all people who are engaged in business
here, and the list contains the name of
every prominent merchant in the town.
On Thursday the petition was taken
around by John L. Burton and Thomas
Rirkbeck, and these gentlemen found
trie business men all anxious to attach
their names in the hopes that it would
help to influence the company to con
sider the extension. There was no
effort made to procure a lengthy petition.
All that they deemed necessary were
the signatures of the leading merchants,
the men whose freight traffic swells the
monthly receipts of the railroad com
panies. If there was any desire to obtain
the feeling of all the people in Freeland
1000 names could be secured just as
easily.
The petition was sent on Saturday by
the TRIBUNE to Geo. W. Twining, of
Mauch Chunk, division superintendent
of the L. & 8., who will forward it to
President Harris. Mr. Twining, we be- j
liave, will do all he can to have the road
extended here, as he stated last week in
his answer to the letter sent him by
Joseph Birkheck, of Wilkes-Barre, that
he would bring the matter before Mr.
Harris and see what could he done.
It is a good indication that Freeland
is losing none of its progressiveness when
a question of this kind can he so far ad
vanced in such a short time. Three
weeks ago today the TRIBUNE called
upon the people of town to make the re
quest for this extension, and, whether it
will he granted or not, the prompt work
of our business men and merchants
shows that they are alive and willing to
do something for the town. This is as it
should be, and we trust that the coming
summer may see the people of Freeland
working together and doing all they pos
sibly can to bring new industries here
and aid every movement that will bene
fit Freeland.
Home Talent Scores Another Success.
The first production of "Under a Ban."
the five-act comedy-drama written by
our townsman, W. C. Miller, was wit
nessed by an audience that filled the
opera house from stage to door on Thurs
day evening. The audience was not
only large but it was one of the most
critical that was ever assembled in the
opera house, and the comments that
were made as the play progressed were
I of such a nature as to insure tho com
! lsilly's success on the road. The actors
did their work well and but little fault
could he found with any of the charac
ters. Considering that this was the first
production of the drama on nnv stage it
is hard to understand how it could be
done any better.
The scenery used was painted entirelv
by the author, and it equalled the best
that any traveling company has shown
on the stage here. The ship scene was
highly praised and the explosion that
followed when the fire reached the pow
der magazine was very realistic. The
subsequent view of mid-ocean, with the
hero, heroine and two comedians float
ing upon the high waves, could not lie
excelled. The specialties of Messrs.
Fans and Wood ring, and the singing of
Miss Marie Timney, were also loudly
applauded.
Kiiiil Words for a Conductor.
Charles Dickinson, of ilazleton, lias
been appointed passenger train conduc
tor on the Hnzleton branch of the Le
high Valley Railroad tosuccee.d William
11. Lawall, who recently resigned. It is
conceded on all sides that "Bill" Lawall
was one of the most popular conductors
in the employ of the company, but we
miss our guess if Charlie Dickinson in
time will not fully equal the popularity
of his predecessor.
The new conductor was Mr. Lawall's
baggage master for many years. He is
thoroughly acquainted with the route, its
duties ami its patrons, and will no doubt
fill the position with credit to himself
and the company. A portion of Mr.
Dickinson's run is between Ilazleton
and Mauch Chunk. This is filled in the
afternoon every other week, changing
about with Conductor George Reese.—

Friday's Celebration.
The St. Patrick's Day celebration here !
on Friday had the largest number of
men in line of any parade held in Free
land on that date, and tho various so
cieties made an excellent showing. The
town was liberally decorated, and the !
route and order of parade was followed !
as announced in previous issues. The
number of visitors from outside towns
was very large, Ilazleton especially con
tributing a very big delegation of both
paraders and spectators. There were
1132 people in line.

Met Death in an Unknown Manner.
A very peculiar and fatal accident oc
curred at No. 0 Stockton either late
Thursday or early Friday morning, by
which Jos. Yonkofsky and Joseph (fay
does lost their lives. The Stundaed says
the first intimation that those in charge
of the colliery had that anything had
gone wrong, was Friday morning when
their hoarding boss made lUß appearance
at the office and inquired as to what had
become of them.
A search was at once instituted by the
fire boss, John Parkinson, who found
them at the bottom of the manway lead
ing from No. 3, which is worked out.
Yonkofsky was dead but Gaydoes was
alive but unconscious. The men were
taken to the surfaee and the ambulance
quickly summoned, when Gaydoes was
removed to the hospital. Every possiN
ble means was used to restore him to
consciousness, but he died at half-past
five o'clock that evening.
How the accident happened will prob
ably never lie known. They were both
employed as miners anil on Thursday
morning went to work as usual. They
worked together in the same breast.
The manway which leads to their breast
is very steep, and the supposition is that
the men were returning from work when
one of them slipped and fell carrying
the other with him.
No Exhibit at the Pair.
There has been a decided change in
the Reading and Lehigh Valley Roads in
respect to an exhibit at the World's fair.
For some time past work has been going
on in the Lehigh Valley shops preparing
for it. An engine of the Lehigh Valley's
make, machines which are famous
among railroaders for their achieve
ments, was being built at the Uazleton
shops. It is nearly completed.
At the Paekerton shops a gondola car'
and a freight car ot the latest design and
equipment were being made. In the
shops in South Easton a first-class day
passenger coach, with interior finish in
bird's-eye maple, is receiving its finish
ing touches. It will he the handsomest
day car ever built by the company.
In a week or so the work on all these
exibits would have been completed.
Late Friday afternoon information was
received at each of the shops stating that
no exibit would be made at Chicago.
No reason was assigned.
Lost Eight Straight Dottles.
An exciting cocking main took-place
; at a prominent sporting place at West
I Uazleton on Saturday evening, when a
main of seven battles for a large purse
was fought. Uazleton and Drifton were
on ones ide, and Freeland, Upper Lehigh
I and Jeddo opposed them. The first four
battles were won by the Ilazletonians,
and as this gave them a majority of the
! main side battles were tlien fought.
| Luck, however, was dead against the
entire North Side, excepting Drifton,
j which stuck to Uazleton birds, and the
I four side battles were lost as quickly as J
the main. An extraordinary large I
amount of money was wagered on the !
battle, and the sports who hacked the !
losing roosters were completely cleaned ;
out.
Arrested for Stealing a Watell.
John Mulligan, of Audenried, and ' !
Michael Keating, of Weatherly, were!
arrested yesterday on the charge of 1
stealing a watch belonging to Edward
Furey, of the Points, on Saturday even- j
ing. At the hearing Keating was (lis-1
charged, and Mulligan was held under 1
S3OO bail. The watch was afterwad j
found in one of the jewelry stores of
town, where it had been sold" for $3.00.
The case was settled this morning by
some of Mulligan's friends paying the
costs and returning the watch to the
owner. j

That old established cough remedy,
Downs' Elixir, still more than holds its
own in the public estimation, despite!
sharp and active competition. It is a I
"home remedy," and in this locality j ■
needs no words of praise from us, so well
and favorably known is it.
It is the standard remedy for coughs, j ■
colds and all throat troubles, with great
numbers of our people, and their con- ,
tinned use and unsolicited recommenda- *
tion of it speaks volumes in its favor :
