FREELAND TRIBUNE. VOL. V. No. 82. IN BASE BALL CIRCLES. TWO LEAGUES WANT TO LOCATE { CLUBS AT WILKES-BARRE. Jeanesville I* Preparing: to Have a Strong Team This Year- Lansford Will Hardly lie In the Game—Doubtful If Freeland Will He Represented. Wilkes-Bar re is between two fires as far as base ball is concerned. She is wanted in the Eastern League and State League respectively. Representatives of the State League met there on Friday and a coramitte waited upon several of the Wilkes-Barre men who are interest ed in base hall. Among the advantages to be gained by joining the State League they claim that the salary limit was small, the circuit compact and a money guarantee from every club to finish the season. The latter is a strong point. Each cluh will have to put up SSOO in cash to play the season out. Argument was also brought to hear against the Eastern League. The State League people claim the jumps are too big and that Pat Powers is only a tool in the hands of the National League. It is expected that Louisville will drop out of the National League and that Buffalo will he elected to take her place. In that case it is alleged the Eastern League would go to pieces early in the season and Wilkes-Barre would he without h team. The Eastern League adherents have one advantage, however. They got a good start. Subscriptions to the amount of $1,200 has been raised for an Eastern League team. West Side Park has been leased for the season. John Irwin, who is to captain the Eastern League team, is still in the city. If the necesary amount of money can be raised and Wilkes- Barre is admitted into the League he will at once start to sign players. Representatives of the State League adopted a resolution to the effect that if Wilkes-Barre wishes to join the State League the latter will await a decision, yes or no, untill next Wednesday. Jeanesville intends to have a team tliis season that will be the peer of any amatuer club in the state. Jim Brady and Ed Ulain, of Pittsburg, are expected to arrive there on Wednesday; Fairhurst, Strongle and Seeds, of the famous Tacony cluh, will he on hand about the middle of the present month, and Miller, of South Easton, will also play with Jeanesville. These men, with the home talent, will make a very strong cluh, and the manager intends to test them against the best clubs with which games can be secured. The prospects of Lansford having any base hall this year are decidedly "blue." as the following from the Record will show: Although the cluh paid 50 per ' cent, last year, it is impossible to get enough stockholders together to organize for the season. This is not because they were not pleased with last year's divi dend, but to the selfish idea that three or four will again do all the work, while the other twenty stockholders sit on the grand stand and cheer for the visiting team. The Smiths club of this place has been organized under the management of Ed. Faas, and will don their uniforms and meet any cluh in the region under 20 years of age as soon as the s.ason opens. The base hall magnates have decided that this season the pitcher must stand live feet further away from the batsman. It is claimed that this will make the game more interesting and will insure more base hits, more runs, more work for the fields and a much more active and energetic base hall game. 4 The spring-like weather of the past few days has caused the Freeland people to make many inquiries regarding the game here. At present it is a question whether the town will have a represen tative club or not. The Freeland Associa tion has not decided to enter the field, hut a meeting of the stockholders will be held at 2.30 p. in. at Woodside school building on April 9 to settle the matter. The association has control of Freeland park, and should they fail to take charge of it this season and organize a club, it is tbrought they may allow some one else to use the grounds. The Tigers Athletic Cluh, which has supported a hall team put of its funds for the past four years, is said to he willing to give the public all the hall that could he wished for, hut unless they secure a place to play it is not likely that a cluh will he put on the field. Should the Tigers he allowed the | use of Freeland hall park the association ! that is backing them can he depended upon to place Freeiand's name among 1 the leading base hall h wns of the state again.

The Helping Hand Visitors' Club of New York has been established with the view of bringing together two classes of women who may prove of mutual bene fit to each other. Those having homes in the country who would receive into their households, for a short summer vacation, repectable, well-recommended young women from the city, willing to spend part of their time each day helping with sewing or other domestic duties, in turn for a home during a yisit; and res pectable women, clerks, seamstresses, etc., whose means are to limited toaliow of their paying for hoard while spending a vacation in the country, yet who would do things willingly as visitors that they would object to doing for pay. Those who would like to make ar rangements for receiying a Helping Hand Visitor into their homes some time during the summer, and young wo men wishing to avail themselves of such opportunities as may occur for spending their vacation under such conditions, can apply to the Secretary of the Help ing Hand Visitors' Club, 15 East 14th street, New York city, where a central bureau has been established for the pur pose of putting parties interested in the matter in communication with each other. There is no charge for information; but as the society is intended to be as nearly self-supporting as possible, so that it may be free from any suggestion of charity, a stamp should be enclosed for a reply. A Minister Di*iiii*Hed. Rey. Lewis Mattson, of East Consho hocken, minister in charge of a church in Norristown, a branch of the Heaven ly Recruit Association, was found guilty of charges of violating church law and was suspended on Friday. Rev. C. W. Ruth, the presiding elder of the association, who lives in Indian apolis, Ind., arrived in Norristown last week, read the charges to Mr. Mattson, and requested him to meet the presiding elder and Rev. J. Trumbauer, of Ches ter; Rev. Thomas J. J. Wright, formally of Freeland, now of Reading, and A. E. Canfield, who was also pastor here for a year, but who is now located at Con- Bhohocken. Mattson and a few of his followers were at the church when the presiding elder and the committee arrived, but they could not gain an entrance, as the building was securly locked and guarded by Mattson. The presiding elder walk ed up the steps and tried the door, but Mattson seized him and pushed him to the sidewalk. Tko elder and his com mittee adjourned to a private house and suspended Mattson. The building is deeded to Rev. Mattson and three trus tees, two of whom are with him, and, as they have a majority, it is likely that suits will have to be instituted by the parent association to recover the build ing which Mattson positively refuses to turn over. A Pointer Thut May Interest You. The display windows of Freeiand's numerous Htoros are filled with articles and novelties that breathe suggestions of spring to every passer-by. The ladies are interested in those places where a profusion of ribbons, laces, bonnets, etc., are on exhibition, but the men, the young men especially, are attracted to the handsome windows of Jacobs & Barasch. What is seen there, however, is only a faint reflection of the fine and com plete line of spring goods for suitings and trousers that is inside. It is un doubtedly the largest stock that any firm has ever brought to Freeland, and con sists of the very latest in the clothing line. The pantaloons and suits that this firm manufacture can he picked out at a glance w hen seen on the street, as their perfect lit, stylish make and good workmanship cannot be disguised. Every article they manufacture can be relied upon to do just what is claimed for it when you bu}', and the young men of town are re quested to give them a call if they are thinking of procuring an outfit for spring or summer. A large line of ttie latest style hats, neckwear, furnishing goods, and everything that should be carried by a first-class clothing store. * Ll*t of Patent*.

A Widow's Poverty. Porter Kipp, 7 years of age, wasstruck by an Allentown electric car and sustain ed severe injuries. Through the acci dent a most pitiable case of destitution was discovered. The boy is the son of a widow witli three small children living in two small rooms. The family is in great distress. The mother is employed in a silk mill and earns $3.50 per week with which she supports herself and three children. The father was killed six years ago by being run over by a train. Ten Men Smothered. In the Nelson shaft at Shamokin ten miners and thirty mules lost their lives by a peculiar accident. In one of the lower lifts a fire was accidentally Btarted by a mine's lamp, and the smoke from this fire found its way up an air-shaft to a lift above. The smoke was so dense that it smothered all whom it overtook. The mine is still burning. FREELAND, PA., MONDAY, APRIL 3, 1893. APRIL FORECAST. Rev. Irl llirks Tells What the Weather Is Likely to He This Month. A combination of causes conspire at the opening, and continue during the entire month of April, which are calcu lated to produce disturbances of maxium severity, and which will overrun tin limits of the storm periods in their normal state. Nevertheless, the most marked and dangerous storms will cen tre dates of regular storm periods. The first period will extend from the 4th to the 6th, We name the sth as a danger centre. As we enter the period it will grow very warm in westerly parts, and heavy storms of thunder, rain and hail will develop and travel eastwardly, turning to snow and sleet in northerly directions. Expect a general cold wave to spread oyer the country as the storms pass to the eastward, and prepare for frost, and considerable freezing northward in two intervening days and nights prior to about the Oth and 10th. On and after these dates it will grow suddenly very warm, and reactionary storms will ap pear in many parts and with marked en ergy. Heavy hail storms are almost sure to result. Another dash of cold weather will fall in behind these disturbances, disap pearing gradually up to about the 14th. Between the 13th and 17th the whole country will feel the effects of a very warm wave, and storms of great violence are to be apprehended on or about the 15th, 16th and 17th. The disturbances from the 13th to 18th are apt to be , pJolonged by existing causes into the re actionary storms due about the 21st and The 26th is the central day of the last period of the month, which period em braces the 25th to 28th inclusive. Du ring this period it will grow very warm again, and many heavy storms of rain, thunder and hail will travel from west to east across our continent. After the storms, look for cold and frost. Minor*' Wages Going Down. The recent reduction in the price of coal at tidewater, for which the Heading is receiving much praise, will not affect its finances any, as McLeod & Co. will take it out of the miners this summer. The committee of the Schuylkill Coal Exchange, which met at Potlsville on Friday, fixed the rate to be paid at the Reading collieries in the Schuylkill region for the last two weeks of March and the first two weeks of April at $2.58 1-5, which is 3 per cent, above the $2.50 basis. Last month's wages were 5 per cent, above the basis, and a few months ago it was 8 per cent, übove. Tonight I* the Night. Easter Monday in Freeland would be but little different from any other Mon day if it were not for the annual ball held by the St. Patrick's band on that date. The one this evening will be a record-breaker, unless all signs fail, and the committees are making every effort possible to provide for the large crowd that is expected. On the dancing pro gramme a number of new dances have been placed, and the music will be sup plied by Gillespie's orchestra. During the intermission the hand will render several choice selections. For the World'* Fair. The Reading Company has shipped to the Chicago fair 163 boxes containing samples of all the sizes and yarieties of coal mined and prepared at their mines in the Schuylkill region. In addition to the coal, there was in cluded in the shippment a collection comprising forty-one diQorent tools and implements used by the miner. The entire exhibit will be placed in cabinets among the Pennsylvania exhibits in the mines and mining building. Changes 011 tlio Lehigh Valley. A change was announced in railroad circles on Friday tiiat created consider able surprise. Charles Dickinson, who lias temporarily filled the position vacat ed by Conductor William Lawall, has been transferred to Conductor Haines' train, and Haines was given Hawaii's position. Schuyler Yost, who has been tilling the position of baggagemastcr, goes hack to breaking and Patrick Bris lin has been appointed as baggage master. — S tarda rtl. EDITORS AND NEWSPAPERS. Editor Malloy, of the Lansford Record, is in the internal revenue collectorship tight in dead earnest. He is receiving the endorsement of an unusually large number of prominent Democrats of the district, and if he should he so fortunate as to he appointed there is no question hut what lie would till the otiice with credit to himself and the administration. Since Saturday the Plain Speaker has been reduced to one cent, and the pres-! ent manager makes the statement that the paper will lose none of its present features. The reduction in price will no doubt prove beneficial in a great many respects. TheShickshinny Democrat lias our best wishes for many more such prosperous years as its first, which closed on Thurs day. It is the exponent of genuine Democracy, and deserves all the success it lias attained. The Coopershurg Sentinel has com menced the fifth year of its life, and the indications are that it will seen great many more. It is a good local paper and is carefully edited, hut it is a great deal too radical in upholding the Reading combine. Among the hundreds of Pennsylvania editors who would like to place "P. M." before their names none are better known than Sam Boyd, whose wit and satire makes the Nemdealer sparkle every day. That Sam's modest ambi tion will be gratified is conceded in many quarters. Few newspapers have been more suc cessful the past year than the Doily Standard. It won the favor of the pub lic at the start, and has succeeded in keeping up with the front rank since. Electric Roads und Electric Light. The officials of the Union Passenger Street Railway Company were inter viewed by different railroad contractors last week regarding the contract for the building of their lines to Upper Lehigh, Eckley, Highland, Drifton, Jeddo and (iakdale, hut as the company has to go a little slow until the supreme court gives its decision in the right of way case in Foster township none of the contracts were given out. The directors, how ever, have felt so confident that the com pany will win again that they have com menced to order the material for the road, and when the decision is given the largest force that can he handled will he put on to complete the road to the above places. In a day or two the business men and residents of town will he called upon to ascertain how many will take electric light, and when an idea of the number is obtained the parties who are interest ed in the Union will procure a charter to furnish Freeland with this necessary article. The Union Company is in this business to stay, and the people of town should not he any way backward in giv ing them encouragement in building the road and erecting a light plant. Both are necessary articles here, and Freeland alone will reap all the benefit that is to be derived from the labor employed on them. It is reported that within the course of a few weeks the Hazleton and North Side Company will commence to lay its tracks on the road leading to St. Ann's church, which is a part of the route by which they intend to reach Freeland. Practical Social Reform. Dr. Stanton Colt, founder of Leigliton Hall, London, has begun a comprehensive movement for the betterment of the con dition of the poor in the most wretched portion of New York city—the Tenth ward. Ho has recently organized what is at present known as the Tenth Ward Social Reform cluh. Members of the cluh will he recruited from tlio residents of the Tenth ward, and its work will he confined to that territory. The club will he conducted on the lines followed by Toynbee Hall and Leigliton Hall in London, which have been such rcinarkablo successes. It will ho free from religious—organized church—influ ence and will not set up as the exponent of any particular school of economic re form. Each member will he left to freely exercise his own convictions upon these questions. What tlio cluh will aim to do is to im prove tlio moral and material conditions of the denizens of the Tenth ward by in culcating manhood, cleanliness and fru gality. Innocent and instructive amuse ments will he provided in the reading and entertainment rooms of the cluh. Assistance will ho given those in need of it, and co-operative stores will ho estab lished as Iho cluh becomes able to care for them and support them. Altogether tlio movement is worthy and will have tlio good wishes of all social reformers, as well as the substan tial support of tlioso who arc able to give to tlio good work. Poverty of London "Docker*." A London newspaper called The Morn ing has been making an investigation into tho condition of tlio London dock laborers and states that "tho average weekly wages of the docker who gets work is 12 shillings." This is $2.88. Tlio persons receiving this pay are, it is to he remembered, working at tlio hardest kind of toil that requires or should re quire plenty of strong food to sustain them in proper condition. But it ap pears there is a lower depth even for tlio dock laborer. Less than one-half of tho London "dockers" are regularly cm ployed. Tho majority are casuals, and of these many do not make more than 1 shilling, or 24 cents a week. Tlicy wait all day for work, with this miserable re sult. "How do such pcoplo exist?" asks the London newspaper from which we tako these facts, and it answc rs its own ques tion. They pawn all articles not abso lutely necessary. They live upon bread and tea, and for these they often depend upon intimato friends. The "dockers" make a secret of their poverty often even among themselves, and for this reason, says The Morning, tho general impres sion may he that there is little or no pov erty among them. CenNured tlio Company. Daniel Ballig, a Hungarian laborer of Ilazle Brook, was mangled in a terrible manner and killed on Thursday by fall ing into the rollers of the breaker at that place. He was 48 years of age, and had a wife and two children in Hungary. The funeral took place on Friday morn ing, and the remains were interred at Freeland cemetery. Deputy Coroner Gorman held an in (jnest and the jury, in rendering its ver dict, spates that "the accident was caus ed by one of the planks of the box plat- i form covering the rollers getting out of ! place and tilting over. Tho construction, ' of the platform that covered the rollers 1 previous to the accident was a death trap, for the existence of which we cen sure J. S. Wentz tk Co." l*oor Director* Organize.
