STOLE A CAPE.
A Young Lady of White Haven Charged
With Robbing J. C. Herner.
Mamie Cunnius, of White Ilaven, who
has been living here as a domestic for
the past month, was taken before Squire
Stroh on Saturday evening, charged by
J. C. Burner with stealing a cape valued
at $9.50 from his store. It appears she
called at Berner's on Wednesday and
while pricing goods managed to secure
the cape and go away without being de
tected. To her friendß she stated it
was given her as a birthday present by
a gentleman friend, and she made no
effort to conceal the article, but wore it
through town.
As Mr. Berner had but two capes of
that design it was soon missed and no
trace of it could be found until Miss
Cunnius walked into the store on Satur
day wearing the cape. She wanted to
know the price of one like she wore. It
was recognized as tho missing one by a
clerk in the store and the young hdy
was closely questioned as to where it
came from. Her answers were very
confusing and after endeavoring to deny
that it came from Berner's sho finally
acknowledged the theft and gave it up.
The proof being conclusive she was
fined and charged with the costs of the
case, amounting to about S2O. She paid
$4 and left her gold watch as security for
the balance. Miss Cunnius took the
train yesterday morning for Hazleton.
Church Dedication.
St. John's Slavonian Catholic church
at Itidge and Luzerne streets will be
dedicated by lit. Rev. Bishop O'Hara,
of Scranton, on Sunday, June 18. The

of a few finishing touches, and the ex
terior and interior present handsome ap
pearances. It is certainly a credit to
the congregation which erected it and
the members feel proud of their ability
to add to this town of churches an edi
fice that will be an ornament to the town
and one that is in keeping with their
numerical strength.
A pastor has been secured and will ar
rive here from Hungary shortly before

The School Entertainment.
The entertainment of the pupils of
the borough public schools on Thursday
evening attracted an audience that filled
the opera house at an early hour and
even standing room could scarcely be !
obtained when Prof. Edmunds began his
opening address. \Vith the addition of
music by the P. O. S. of A. band tho [
programme was strictly followed out and ■
each pupil, class and school that took
part did their work in a most creditable i
manner. The various recitations, songs,
dialogues, charades, etc., met with much
applause, and especially the drills and
marching of the pupils by schools were j
favorably commented upon.
The teachers, Prof, lvdmunds and
Misses Gallagher, Lindsay and Schmidt, i

COUNCIL MEETS.
The Tupping; of Sewers ami Other Multern
Settled on Friday Evening;.
At a meeting of the council on Friday
evening the matter of tapping sewers
was taken np, and it was agreed to make
no charge for tapping to parties residing
in the borough, except the 50 cents for a
permit to open the street ami sidewalk.
They must also agree to place a trap on
the connection.
Where the sewer runs through private
alleys outside the borough limits it can
be tapped upon paying 50 cents. Other
properties in the township can connect
by paying $5, and $1 of this will be
returned if the portion of the township
where the properties are located comes
into the borough within six months.
The secretary reported that the Union
Company had filed its acceptance of the
ordinance giving it the right of way
through the borough. The question of
widening Johnsoh street was laid over
with instructions to the solicitor to pro
cure a profile of the original township
road and ascertain its width.
The secretary stated he had referred
the matter of dog tax to the solicitor and
he would render his opinion at the next
meeting.
The street commissioner was directed
to see that the parties engaged in hauling
dirt from new cellar excavations do not
fill their wagons so full as to have it
falling over the streets. Five sets of
crossings were ordered to be laid. The
street committee recommended that the
grade of the alley in the rear of .Patrick
Dougherty's property on Walnut street
be changed, as the water overflows into
the stable. No action was taken in the
matter and the council adjourned.
Murder in the First Decree.
Considerable surprise was occasioned
by the action of the jury in the trial of
Thomas Brown for the murder of l.ucius
Kobinson at Ebervale, the details of
which were given on Thursday. No one
expected to hear of a verdict of murder
in the .first degree, the one the jury
brought in. As both parties implicated
in the trouble had revolvers and seemed j
bent upon hurting one another it was j
thought a verdict of voluntary man- j
slaughter would be about as strong as '
they would agree to.
Sentence has not yet been passed upon
Brown, but predictions are freely made I
by lawyers that he will never be hanged, j
as the evidence scarcely warranted the
verdict.
Attorney Shea on Saturday filed
reasons for a new trial, and the general
opinion is that it will be granted.
I''iiin!rut or A. 11. Welch.
The funeral of A. B. Welch took place |
from his residence on Ridge street Satur
day afternoon. It was attended by Mt-
Horeb Lodge, No. 257, Odd Fellows;'
Silver Wave Lodge, No. 242, Knights of !
Pythias, and Union Council, No. 300, '
Legion of Honor, besides a large num- j
ber of friends and acquaintances. Ser
vices were held at the house by Rev. G.
M. Lamed, of llazleton, after which the j
remains were taken to llazleton and in- j
terred in Vine street cemetery.

FIRE AT No. J b%Totf.
NARROW ESCAPE OF COXE BROS.'
GREAT COLLIERY.
Flames Originate la a Pump Hoase on
the Third Lift and Spread Rapidly—
Free-land's Firemen Go to the Kesctlo
and Render Valuable Assistance.
Coxe Bros. & Co.'s colliery at No. 2
Drifton had a narrow escape on Satur
day afternoon from being classed with
the many "burning mines" that are now
so common throughout the anthracite
coal regions. At 1.45 o'clock General
l'oreman I*. M. Boyle noticed smoke is
suing from the mouth of the slope. Ho
was then engaged in the mining office
outside, but immediately ran down the
man way to the second lift. Finding
everything all right there he returned to
the surface, and by that time the smoke
was becoming denser. He then went to
the third lift, 700 feet below, and saw a
fierce fire raging in the pump house.
Fortunately a strong current of air was
coming upward at the time, carrying the
smoke out to the surface. Had this cur
rent been reversed the smoke would
have gone back to the mines and but
few of the 300 men there could have es
caped.
Mr. Boyle sent messengers throughout
the colliery with orders to notify the
men and take out the mules. Prepara
lions were then made to fight the flames. ]
A bucket brigade was organized and sev- j
eral hand pumps put to work. The ef
forts of the workers to extinguish the j
fire proved futile, and it gained with j
amazing rapidity. The blaze soon took j
hold of the timbers fin the slope, and as
theso were very dry they furnished the j
fire good material to feed upon.
The second lift was soon reached by
the flames, and the smoke coming out at
the surface came thicker and faster.
Finding that the materierial on hand
was unable to cope successfully with the |
fire, Supt. Wagner, at 3.30 o'clock, drove [
to Freeland and received permission of
Burgess Gallagher to use the hose of the I
borough.
The small jumper with 600 feet of
hose was taken down and by that time
the blaze was coming to the top. Two
streams were turned down the mouth of
the slope and tho water kept the timbers
cool and prevented tho fire from reach
ing the surface and attacking the plane
In the meantime the workers inside
were having a hard time of it. The in
tense heat and smoke were obstacles
that couid not well be overcome, but the
men bravely stuck to their posts until
the fire was located.
At 11 o'clock Saturday night it was de
cided to take the 11030 inside. Teams
were sent to this place and after secur- I
ing several members of the Citizens'
lloso Company and 400 feet of hose this I
was done.
Under the direction of Chief Dunlap
his assistants and D. J. McCarthy the
Freeland firemen went at it in a system
atic manner, and in a few hours their
work began to to tell. With a strong
force of'water from the pumps the hose
was attachedlo the gun-boat, which was
lowered slowly, and by dogrecß the fire
was fought back to tho third lift.
On Sunday morning it was confined to
one side and brought under control, but
it still raged fiercely notwithstanding the
great amount of water that was played
steadily upon it. Tho fire had eaten its
way into the pillars, and heavy falls of
rock and coal could he heard all day.
In the afternoon the firemen at work
were relieved by another set of men
from the hose company and these con
tinued until this morning, when they
were replaced by others. At tho time of
going to press today there were no signs
of fire but the coal is very hot and two
streams are yet at work upon it.
As the steam pipes were broken by
the falls from the top the pumps were
unable to work inside and the water was
gaining rapidly yesterday. A new set
of pipe was run down the manway and
at 5 o'clock this morning the pumps
were started again.
Operations were resumed at the break
er this morning. The coal from No. 1
colliery and a part of No. 2 is conveyed
to the breaker via loeies, and those
miners who arc unable to work in their
own places are employed in retimhering
and cleaning the slope. It is expected
that by Monday next everything will he j
in readiness to work the slope as usual. I
Eckley B. Coxe, the head of the firm,
was in Philadelphia at the time the lire
originated. Engagements there preven
ted him from coming home, but lie was
kept notified all along of what was being j
done.
