    FROM SUBURBAN POINTS.
(Continued From Page I.)
Saturday evening. Of course, before ar
riving here lie had been unloading
schooners and as his muscles were in
good trim he kept persons who were
traveling the street busy dodging stones
which he threw at them. He made no
exception to Bex, women and children
were in as much danger as men, and he
was in a fair way of being white-capped
when one of his countrymen took him
in out of danger.
A full account of a ghastly discovery
here will be found on the first
page today. You get all the news in
the TRIBUNE, the cheapest, best and
brightest local paper in the state.
Robert Oliver, of Sandy Run, spent
Sunday afternoon with his parents here.
Miss Kate O'Donnell, of Freeland, was
here visiting on Sunday.
E. 11. Frease moved his family from
here to South Ileberton, and it is said
he lias accepted a position with the Free
land Mercantile Company, Limited.
Miss Mary Campbell, of Hazle Brook,
is spending a week in town.
The new stripping between the Sandy
Run road and the railway has made con
siderable progress already.
There is no end to the schemes some j
of our young men can get up nowadays, j
Several of them escorted a few ladies to
the east end of Jeddo on Sunday even- !
ing and as they were treated kindly by
the ladies and had supper there, it is j
said they load a few cars of coal oc- J
casionally for the "old man," who works j
here, to keep him from kicking.
Rev. J. W. Bischoil, of Upper Lehigh,
held services in the school house here
on Thursday evening. lie will establish I
a branch of the Presbyterian denomina
tion here.
One of our Hungarians thought he
would spend Easter (last Sunday) among 1
his friends at Jeanesville. While en- j
joying himself there he got into a row !
and demolished nearly everything in j
the house. He is now in Pottsville jail !
pondering over the good time lie had.
His brother had him arrested.
The readers of the TRIBUNE are well
pleased with the promptness witli which ;
it arrives here, and the local happenings |
it contains from all over the region is a
feature that is worth more than the
news of all the other papers combined i
which come here.
Mrs. John Broderick, of Sandy Run, I
called on friends here on Sunday.
Michael McGill went to Will's Eye'
hospital, Philadelphia, on Tuesday, to
receive treatment for an old injury.
Base ball is the topic here at present I
and we believe this place will put up a i
a team that will make the amateurs
from the neighboring towns hustle.
Several of our young men are very
curious about the Highland scribe.
Well, boys, what you are afflicted with
"killed a cat," in olden times, and as |
long as you are good, quiet, peaceable
citizens there is no danger of you
"getting in the paper" in any but an
honorable way.
We believe an investigation of the I
pond from which the water supply of
this placo comes would he of great bene
fit to our residents. The water coming
through the hydrants is unfit to give a
beast, and if this matter was looked into
properly it is scarcely fit to wash coal on
the breaker. Just the same we have to
drink it or oftentimes go dry. If this
should meet the eye of the deputy medi-;
eal inspector of the state board of health, j
Dr. McKnight, we would be pleased to J
hear from him, if it comes under his
jurisdiction.
