SONGS AND SINGERS.
Hazleton's Eisteddfod on Tuesday Was a
Successful Affair.
Largo audiences attended each of the
three sessions of the Hazleton eisteddfod,
held in the opera house at that place on
Tuesday. The presidents of the day
were General Thomas L. James, of New
York; Elmer H. Lawall, of Wilkes-Barre,
and David R. Roberts, of Audenried.
The decision made by Adjudicators Pro
fessor Parson Price, of New York, and
Rev. D. J. Evans, of Shenandoah, are
as follows;
The principal prize of S3OO was award
ed to the Wilkes-Barre choir of seventy
voices for the best rendition of "Arise,
All Ye Nations;" Slattington took the
SSO prize, subject, "The Summer;" Dr.
D. J. J. Mason's glee club, of Wilkes-

Judge Rice on Prize Fighting.
The grand jury met at Wilkeß-Barre
on Tuesday and was charged by Judge
Rice, who delivered a strong address
upon violations of the law which officials
seem to overlook. Among other things
he called attention to the fact that prize
fights and boxing matches were held in
the county against the law. ""For Luzerne
and a few other counties there is a spe
cial act regarding such exhibitions, mak
ing prize fights and boxing matches il
legal, attaching a penalty thereto, not
only on principals, but upon all attend
ing, and upon wagering money on the
result.
This notice from the bench of the
recent open violation of the law by
pngilists has occasioned not a little com
ment and anxiety, especially among
those who were in attendance at some
of the late affairs of that kind.
On Memorial Day.
Freeland's celebration of Memorial
Day, under the auspices of Maj.C. B.Coxe
Post, was carried out in a very creditable
manner. The town was handsomely
decorated, and the parade larger than
expected. The exercises in Birkbeck's
grove were attended by several hundred
people, and the excellent address made
by D. J. McCarthy was highly appreci
ated.
In the town the day passed off very
pleasantly and without disorder of any
kind, notwithstanding the large crowds
upon the streets until a late hour.
BASE BALL.
The Smiths club of town went to
Weatherly Tuesday morning and de
feated the club there, 14 to 5. In the
afternoon they went to White Haven and
won to the tune of 10 to 0. The features
of the games were the pitching of Sims,
the opponents being unable to find his
curves. Kessell caught both games in
great style, and the home boys did
plenty of work with the stick.
Wilkes-Barre's amateur club was
easily defeated by Freeland on Tuesday.
Welch, of this place, and Ward, of
Silver Brook, constituted the battery for
the homo team and worked very good
together. The score was 10 to 3in favor

THOUGHT HEJWAS DEAD.
After Fifteen Month* a Man Confesses to
a Murder lie Did Not Commit.
Fifteen months ago Edward Pierson,
now of Connellsville, in the western
part of the state, boarded with his
brother-in-law, William Rutledge, in
Miner's Mills. The two men were the
best of friends, working together in the
mines and spending their leisure time
in the company of each other. On
February 26, 1892, says the Neiosdealev,
the two men were idle and spent the
early part of the day in the Baloons of
this city and latter on returned to their
home in Miner's Mills.
Arriving there they entered into a
discussion of their respective merits as
runners, ultimately leading to angry
words, terminating in blows. Rutledge
proved to be the superior man in a fair
fight and Pierson Beized a heavy bar of
iron and dealt Rutledge a terrific blow
on the head, felling him to the ground
whore he lay like one dead.
Pierson, seeing what he had done, be
lieved he had committed murder and
made haste to evade arrest by leaving
town. Rutledge recovered in a few days
and has lived in Miner's Mills ever
since, apparently enjoying as good
health as before he received the blow.
Nothing more was heard from Pierson
until Sunday night when an inquiry was
made of people in Miner's Mills, asking
if they remembered Bill Rutledge, the
man who had been murdered by Ed
ward Pierson in February, 1892. Know
ing that no such event had taken' place
they hunted up Rutledge and sent him
to the office of Mayor Nichols in Wilkes-
Barre.
There he learned that on Sunday last
Pierson had attempted to commit suicide
in Connellsville by throwing himself into
the Youghegheny river, and when res
cued and asked the reason for his rash
act stated that he was suffering from re
morse for killing William Rutledge in
Miner's Mills, Luzerne county, on the
night of February 20, 1892, and that as
he knew no peace of mind Bince he de
sired to end his trouble in death.
Tko authorities there believing he was
wanted here, telegraphed the mayor,
who immediately investigated the mat
ter and elicited the facts as stated above.
When all was made clear he telegraphed
the state of affairs to Connellsville and
no doubt gave to Pierson the first peace
of mind he has enjoyed ever since the
night he believed he had taken the life
of a fellow being.
Lat Niclit'n Excitement.
A young man from one of the nearby
towns raised a great disturbance on the
streets last evening. It seems he had a
suit of clothes made a few weeks ago,
but after wearing it a few times it lost
its shape, shrunk Beveral inches and
was cut according to the fashion plates
of 1865. When he discovered these
things he swore and raved and would
undoubtedly havo done some one harm
had he not been taken in charge by a
friend.
Had this fellow called upon the
popular tailors, Jacobs & Barasch, and
left his order for one of their nobby and
reliable up-to-date summer suits, he
would be the proudest young man in his
town, as well as being several dollars in
pocket. They have the finest stock of
goods ever brought to Freeland, and will
guarantee satisfaction or return your
money. *
The Tigers Picnic.
From 3 until 11 o'clock Tuesday after
noon and evening a large number of
people enjoyed themselves at the picnic
of the Tigers Athletic Club. The affair
netted the club over slls, which goes
toward .supporting the ball club of that
name and also toward keeping the club
house on Walnut street in first-class con
dition.
The committee wishes us to announco
that a vote of thanks has been tendered
the St. Patrick's and P. O. S. of A. bands
for their attendance, the young ladies
who assisted at the stands and the pub
lic for its generous patronage.
Resigned His Position.
A. Stahl resigned yesterday as Free
land agent of the Lebanon Brewing
Company. He expects to take the
agency of another firm in a few days.

MAIN'S CIRCUS WRECKED.
WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SHOW HERE
ON THURSDAY NEXT.
Jumped tho Track at Tyrone, Pa., Early
Tuesday Morning With Disastrous Re
sults—Six Men Killed and Many Others
Injured—Wild Animals Create Trouble.
Walter L. Main's circus train, which
was to arrive here next Thursday, while
en route from Houtzdale to Lcwistown,
consisting of nine flat cars, ten Btock
cars, four coaches and ono box car,
jumped the track and went overa fifteen
foot embankment on the Tyrone & Clear
field branch of the Pensylvania Railroad
near Tyrone early on Tuesday morning.
Six men were killed, fifteen badly in
jured, a number of horses and animals
belonging to the show killed and many
others released to roam about the coun
try. The dead are:
Frank Train, treasurer and ticket
seller, Indianapolis.
James Strayer, Houtzdale, Pa.
William Mullainey, Geneva, 0.
William Heverly, brakeman, Tyrone.
Charles Lock, Lexington, ICy.
Louie Champaign, Rochester, N. Y.
The injured who were cared for at tho
hospital in Altoona are Willis 0. Brnn
non, Chainbersburg, Pa., wounds of
scalp ami face; David Jones, Ilarrisburg,
sprain of right thigh; Frank Morse,
Rochester, N. Y., eye brow and scalp
wounds; William Evans, Williamstown,
Pa., laceration of right ankle and proba
bly injured internally, condition critical;
William Patchell, Dubois, Pa., contusion
of left knee; James lfawley, Alberton,
Pa., right car torn off and several scalp
wounds; John Chambers, colored, right
thumb bitten by lion; Arthur Richards,
Butler county Pa., laceration of tho left
upper eyelid; GeorgeCorteen, Hollidays
burg, Pa., contusion of chest; Frank Bar
lett, Tarentum, Pa., contusion of left
arm and hand and laceration of thumb;
William Jenks, keeper, left knee cap
bitten off by lion; "Barney," the cook.
HOW run WHKCK OCCURItED.
There are two theories advanced for
the cause of the accident. One is the
engineer lost control of the heavy train
and the cars jumped the track at the
curve, and the other that tho accident
was caused by a truck breaking under
tho first car in the train, which contain
ed two elephants.
However, the engine kept tho track,
but everything else except tho coaches
went over the bank nnd piled up. All
that saved the coaches was the buffet
car which got aafcss the track and stop
ed them.
Many of the horses were killed. The
boss hostler counted forty-nine, among
them all the valuable ring horses, ono
valued at SI,OOO.
WILD ANIMALS ESCArE.
All the animals of the menageries es
caped from their cages. People who ar
rived early at the scene of the accident
say that strange animals were to be met
everywhere making for the woods. The
monkeys, two "grave diggers" from
Australia, a lion, a black panther and a
silver tiger from Asia have not yet been
recaptured. Alt the birds gotawayalHO.
The "man slaying ape," the most dan
gesous animal of tho whole lot, was
luckily soon taken and safely caged.
Two tigers belonged to tho show and
both got away. One was caged safely,
but the other was killed by Alfred
Thomas, a farmer. ThomaH' wifo was
milking the cows at 0 o'clock in the
morning when the tiger leaped into tho
yard. It seized one of the cows and
kilted it. Mrs. Thomas lied to the house
and alarmed her husband, who shot the
tiger with his rifle.
All the chariots, buggies, show wagons,
etc., were entirely destroyed. The only
animals killed besides the horses and
the tiger were two sacred oxen, botli of
which were so terribly injured that they
had to be Bhot.
A riTIFUL KIOIIT.
In one place not twenty feet square
lay the bodies of eight horses, a little
pony and its young foal. In another
spot were five horses and close by was a
crushed box car with a mass of horses'
harness and timber impossible to picture.
All the horses were dead and their posi
tions showed at least had struggled hard
for a short time. Others had not mov
ed. Scattered over the field were tho
bodies of other horses which had stag
gered away with broken limbs and in
ternal injuries, who had been shot to
put them out of misery.
The most pitiable was the little week
old Shetland pony, the mother of which
had been killed. The little thing, weigh
ing only twenty-five pounds, was wan
dering disconsolately among the horses
looking for its mother. Within a radius
of sixty feet square nothing hardly
could be noticed but dead animals and
piles upon piles of debris.
It is possible that what is left of the
circus will he gathered together and
shipped to the winter quarters. Mr.
Main claims he had about 100 roustabouts
and laborers and sixty showmen on tho
train.
.Stephen Cresswell, the engineer of the
wrecked train, was badly scared and has
not shown up since the accident. It ap
pears to be tho general impression that
such a heavy train should have had at
least two engines attached to it.
The loss is estimated by those in au
thority at $150,000. The cars were sixty
five feet long and very solidly built.
