FREELAND. PA.. JUNE 20, 1893. WHAT THEY THINK OF IT. Koine of the Comments Passed l>y Edi tors Upon the "Tribune." The FRKEI.ANIJ TRIDUNE entered on its Birth year on Thursday. The TRIBUNE is a semi-weekly paper, and unlike many of its semi-weekly contempories is a decided success both financially and as a newspaper. We extend our heartiest congratulations, Brother Buckley, and trust you will continue to merit success. —Tamaqxia Recorder. The FREELAND TRIBUNE with this week's issue closed its fifth volume. The TRIBUNE is one of the spiciest local papers on our exchange list.—Coopers burg Sentinel. The FREELAND TRIBUNE has entered upon its sixth year. Editor Buckley is giving a newsy and clean sheet, and is deserving of the prosperity that lias come to him after hard work.— Lamford Record. The FREELAND TRIBUNE is five years old. Our contemporary is in a high state ot prosperity. It is one of our best ex changes. The Newsdealer extends its congratulations and hopes the TRIBUNE will continue to grow in power and in fluence.— Wilkes-Darre Newsdealer. BASE BALL. The following suggestion about a change in the method of Bcoring has in it some good features and is being favor ably commented upon by many. It is suggested that fractions of a run be counted instead of a whole run. For in stance, if a batsman reaches first base, count the side one, two for second base, three for third and four for home. In this way men left on bases would not be wasted energy, as they are now. A stolen base might mean the winning of a game. It can be seen how much more excit ing it would make the game. Every careless play would be costly. Every good play would count. Bases on balls would count as much as a base hit, as they really do now, but do not appear so in the published scores. The score would then show the merits of a team, as it doesn't now. Good base running would count towards winning. Every hit would count. Every play would be watched with interest. It is difficult to conceive how exciting a game would become. These are a part of the advantages urged by the originator of the scheme. Honey Brook is to play the Tigers here on Sunday next. Hazleton defeated Bloomsburg, 13 to C, on Friday. Beaver Meadow club did not show up here yesterday, and there were no games on this side. Lansford trimmed up Hazleton on Sat urday to the tune of 9 to 5. Shamokin scored 1 run at Jeanesville on Saturday while the home team made 18. The Tigers would like to hear from some first-class club for July 4. They will play anywhere on that date for a reasonable guarantee. Address J. M. Gallagher, Freeland. WHUT TLIEY THINK OF ADS. An exchange tells of two men who were not long since discussing their local paper. One thought it had too many advertisements in it. The other replied: "In my opinion the advertisements are far from being the least valuable part of it. I look them over carefully and save at least five times the cost of the paper each week through the business advan tages I get from them." Said the other: "I believe you are right—l know that they pay me well and rather think it is not good taste to find fault with the ad vertisements after all." Those men have the right idea of the matter. It pays any man with a family to take a good local paper for the sake of the advertisements if nothing more, and if business men fail to give the working people a chance to read adver tisements in the local paper they are blind to their own interests to say the least of it. "You never trade with me," said a business man to an acquaintance. "You have never invited me to your place of business and I never go where I not invited; J might not be welcome," was his reply. FROM SUBURBAN POINTS. (Continued From Paige 1.) quaintances wishes them long years of happiness. They have gone to Jorsey City, where they will make their future home. Peter O'Donnell, who has heen in a Philadelphia hospital for several weeks, has returned home. Dr. Kalh has returned from the World's fair. Miss Annie Brislin was in Hazleton last week visiting. John P. Quinn, of Philadelphia, was here last week visiting old acquain tances. Condy Shovlin and Robert Mulraney, former residents, but now of Plymouth, were in town last week. UPPER LEHIGH NOTES. Some of our smart young men were re lieved of their surplus cash last week in Frecland by the fakirs who follow the circus. This all comes from trying to beat a man at his own game, but our boys would aspire to do greater things than that, providing the cash held out. The boys will grow wiser as they get older. Misses Rose and Hannah Ferry re turned home after spending a few weeks among llarwood friends. Mrs. William Stoker is on the sick list. George McGee is suffering from an injured band. John Gerlach, Fred Horn, George Kishbach and a number of our fisher men were on a dishing tour for several days lust week in the vicinity of Wilkes- Barre. BIRD. FROM ALL QUARTERS. John T. Lenahan, Esq., of Wilkes- Barre, lias been honored with the de gree of Master of Arts by the faculty of Villa Nova college.
