HIGHLAND DOTS.
On Monday evening a farewell party
was tendered to Robert Oliver, Sr., and
family by the residents of town. Mr.
Oliver and family have been residents
of this place for upwards of fifteen years,
and in that time they have won the re
spect of both old and young throughout
the entire community. On Tuesday
evening they left for Buffalo, where
they intend making their future home.
Miss Maggie O'Donnell still continues
very ill.
J. J. Brislin, of Jeddo, paid a visit to
town on Tuesday.
Mrs. Herman Snyder, of Hazleton,
was here among frends on Monday.
Wm. McCarron moved his household
effects to Freeland last week. He is

were attending the temperance conven
tion at Lansford on Sunday.
Hugh Gallagher, who was employed
as a driver in No. 2 slope, has accepted
a position at Bergen Point, N. J., and
left for that place on Wednesday.
The houses, many of which have|been
vacant for a long time, are being rapidly
occupied and ere long there will not be
an empty house in the place.
A horse belonging to Matt McGettrick,
a tea merchant of Freeland, ran away at
this place on Monday, but was captured
by some boys before any serious damage
was done.
Many of our people are attending the
shows at Freeland this week.
John McNamara has been confined to
his home on account of sickness for
several days this week.
The strippings are working full blast
here now.
Payday was celebrated here on Satur
day and Sunday evenings in royal style.
The oil trains were running on schedule
time and everything, even specials, were
sent out to accommodate the thirsty
public. We wonder if a pipe line to
this place wouldn't be an improvement
on the present system,
UPPER LEHIGH NOTES.

young folks of town last week which

Patrick Brogan visited friends and

A buss load of our young men attend
ed a ball at the Mountain Scenery hotel

The cool weather doeß not prevent our
fishermen from casting their lines. The
sport is still indulged in and enjoyed.
Several of our young men who were
attending a party in town last week had
an altercation about a dog, which, it is
understood, was compelled to follow one
of them from South Heberton that even
ing. The hoys had some very hot words
about the animal, but we believe the
other fellow said something jußt as warm
when he found the dog was missing.

Flag Contest Ended.
The contest for a flag at St. Ann's
church ended on Tuesday evening, when
committees from the societies interested
met at Father Fallihee's residence and
made their returns of the amounts col
lected. The following was announced
as the result:
Division 10, A. O. H $214 25
Young Men's T. A. B. Society.... 112 30
St. Ann's T. A. B. Pioneor Corps.. 33 65
Total $360 20-
The pastor was well satisfied with the
work of the societies. The scarcity of
money during the past summer caused
the collectors to fail to return as large a
sum as they would like, and as other
collections were being made since it
started the total was considered very
good.
Rev. Fallihee stated the flag would be
purchased for Division 19 as Boon as its
members decide upon what kind they
wish. As they already own a fine Irish
flag they will likely chose an American
one to match it in quality and appear
ance. After deducting the cost of the
flag the proceeds of the contest will be
given to the parochial school fund.
Storm Getn a Decision.
On Tuesday evening Judge Simonton,
of the Dauphin county court, handed
down decisions in the various judicial
nomination contests before him. In
the Carbon-Monroe case he says that ex-
Senator Craig's certificate of nomination
is null and void, he having received the
nomination of the Democratic party in
but one county, that of Carbon. Craig's
name, however, will appear on the
ticket under the head of "by nomination
papers" as the candidate of the "non
partisan judiciary party" of Carbon.
As there was no protest made by Craig
against Judge Storm, the Democratic
nominee from Monroe, it was thought
he would have no trouble, but Craig's
counsel on Tuesday evening filed a pro
test against Storm before Secretary Har
rity, who after hearing argument decided
that Storm's certificate is not defective
and his name will go under the regular
Democratic heading.
At the Opera House This Week.
J. W. Macready and his company
have given two of their plays here this
week, and both performances were ren
dered in excellent style and gave good
satisfaction to the audiences. The well
known play of "Monte Cristo" drew a
full house on Tuesday evening, and the
presentation of the piece fullfilled all
expectations.
In "The Danites" last evening the
company again demonstrated its ability
to give a play as the author intended it
should be given. The portrayal of
Western life, scenes of mining camps
and a representation of how the pioneers
of California judge between right and
wrong brought out some good acting.
This evening the ''Ticket of-Leave
Man" will be given, tomorrow evening
"The Two Orphans," Saturday matinee,
"Lost in London" ami Saturday evening
"The Octoroon."
A Hungarian Hangs Himself.
From Today's Speaker.
Harleigh was thrown into a state of
unusual excitement yesterday afternoon
by the announcement of the fact that
the dead body of a man had been found
hanging to a tree in the picnic ground
back of the church. It was not long be
fore crowds of people, young and old;
had gathered from every part of the
neighborhood. Some contend that the
man was hung by friends of the Matz's
against whom Adam Novack was prose
cutor and was supposed to have been as
sisted by this man.
A letter was found in the dead man's
pocket and also a prayer book in which
was stamped the name "John Novack."
Michael Lynch, a school teacher of Har
leigh, found the body hanging by a
piece of wire from the limb of a tree in
such a manner that the feet touched the
ground. Deputy Coroner Gorman re
quested Undertaker Boyle to bring the
body here, which was done last evening.
The body was kept all night in Mr.
Boyle's morgue, and this morning at 9-
o'clock he will conduct an inquest for
the purpose of finding out for a certainty
and to satisfy the law concerning the
facts surrounding the hanging.

FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1893.
A IBRUTAL R MURDER.
Two Men Quarrel Near Wllkeßg-Barro
and One la Stabbed to Death.
Jolin Johnson, foreman in charge of a
gang of laborers and masons employed
in constructing piers for a new bridge of
the Delaware, Lackawanna and Wes
tern Railroad, a few miles below Wilkes-
Barre, was brutally murdered on Mon
day afternoon by John Wilburn, fore
man of a quarry nearby, from which
stone was being taken for the piers.
The quarrymen were not working on
account of the rain, but Wilburn, in
company with a ten-year-old Italian
water-boy, was in the quarry marking
places to be cut by his workmen. In
the morning Johnson wanted to do some
blasting and sent a laborer to Wilburn
to borrow an electric battery to explode
the charges. Wilburn, though not using
the battery, refused to loan it, and
roundly abused the man, who told John
son of his reception. Johnson was an
noyed and after dinner went over him
self. What followed nobody knows but
Wilburn and the little Italian boy.
The latter, a bright little fellow, tellß
a very clear story. He says that he and
Wilburn were working and he was
standing nearby when Johnson came
into the quarry. The boy doesn't
understand English very well, and
consequently could not make out what
the men said. Both appeared very
angry, and after a brief interchange of
words commenced fighting. They struck
several blows and then closed. After a
desperate struggle Wilburn was thrown
to the ground. Johnson acted as if he
wanted to Btop fighting, but Wilburn was
enraged and sprang at him again. Soon
Wilburn was knocked down a second
time, and then Johnson turned to walk
away.
As he did so Wilburn picked up an
iron crowbar, and running after him;
brought the weapon down upon John
son's head with all his force. Johnson
fell to the ground, and Wilburn, kneel
ing down, camly drew a big jackknife
from his pocket, opened it and plunged
it into the breast of the prostrate John
son. Then he coolly wiped the weapon
on his victim's clothes, pocketed it and
walked away. The boy was so frighten
ed that he ran into the woods.
Wilburn went to his home at Nanti
coke, changed his clothes and left the
town. Ho has not been seen since.
Johnson was from St. Katherines,
Ontario, and Wilburn is from Illinois.
The body of Johnson was found two
hours after the murder by some laborers,
and when they appeared the little
Italian boy came out of the woods and
told his story.

Killed by an Ice Wagon.
When Charles Brobst, a driver of a
Wilkes-Barre ice wagon, of the White
Haven Ice Company, started out on his
rounds Tuesday morning he took with
him his little four-year-old son, Clyde,
who sat on the seat beside him. About
noon, as Brobst was driving in the upper
part of the city, the wagon violently
struck a stone and the boy was thrown
out over the dash board and fell under
the wheels, which passed over his chest,
crushing his life out instantly. The
father is stupified with grief, and it is
feared he will lose his mind.

Institute Catalogue.
The first catalogue of the Freeland
Mining and Mechanical Institute has
been issued by the board of directors.
It gives interesting statistics and infor
mation from the date of organization,
March 16, 1893, to the end of the last
term. At that time there were 57 pupils
in the school, of which number 17 were
in the mining class and 40 were study
ing the mechanical branch. Instruction
is given three evenings a week, Monday,
Wednesday and Friday, and the read
ing room is open every weekday even
ing from 7 to 9.30 o'clock.
The directors report a balance of
$177.90 at the close of the last term, and
also state they feel very much encour
aged with the work thus far accomplish
ed, considering the short,time, the insti
tutue has been organized.
The entire third floor of the Birkbeck
brick is now occupied, and the fall term,
which commenced the forepart of Sep
tember, opened very auspiciously. The
young men who are enrolled as students
show their appreciation of the opportu
nity offered by their punctual attend
ance and the rapid progress they make
with their studies.
A Resorted "Wife Proves Her Claim.
About three months ago Andrew
Ondis, a well-to-do Polish saloonkeeper
near Wilkes-Barre, fell from a bicycle
and sustained injuries from which he
died shortly afterwards. He left no will
and his wife applied for letters of ad
ministration, but before they were grant
ed another woman appeared and claimed
she was also Ondis' wife. She said that
ten years ago, when he came to this
country, he left her behind in Poland
and she never heard from him until one
of her relatives here wrote telling of his
death and stating that he left big prop
erty.
Wife No. 1 at once secured the proper
evidence of the marriage and came to
this country. Reaching Wilkes-Barre
her relatives engaged an attorney and
Bhe presented her claims just in time to
prevent wife No. 2, whom Ondis mar
ried a year ago, from securing the letters
of administration. The court found in
favor of wife No. 1, and when she has
sold the estate of her late spouse she
will return to her home in Poland with
a snug fortune of $50,000.
Married on Tuesday.
On Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock
Patrick J. Duffy, of Ridge street, and
Misß Annie O'Donnell, of Centre street,
were united in marriage by Rev. M. J.
Fallihee at St. Ann's church. The
groomsmen were John A. Boyle, of Pitts
ton, and John J. Conaghan, of Summit
Hill, and the bridesmaids Miss Ella
Shearon, of Eckley, snd Miss Rosina
O'Donnell, the bride's sister. The
wedding party enjoyed a drive through
the surrounding country until evening,
when a reception was tendered their
intimate friends and relatives at the
residence of the bride's parents.
Both are well and favorably known
in this section, Mr. Duffy being a con
ductor on the D. S. &S. They start out
on their matrimonial voyage with the
congratulations and best wishes of their
numerous friends. For the present they
will reside on Centre street with the
bride's parents.
Injured by a Train.
Condy O'Donnell, of Ebervale, who is
aged about 60 years, was struck by a
passenger train in Hazleton yesterday
afternoon. The collision resulted in
O'Donnell receiving some severe injuries,
including a broken nose, a scalp wound
and contusion of the back. He was
taken to the hospital, where he lies now
in a critical condition.
O'Donnell has been a resident of the
region for about twenty years, and for
some time past has done nothing but
solicit alms, a work he was engaged in
when hurt yesterday.
The Jeddo Tunnel.
From the Standard.
There was great rejoicing at Lattimer
on Monday evening when it became
known that the workmen employed in
the great tunnel had entered the Latti
mer slope from the Butler side. While
thiß does not complete the tunnel by any
means, it is a fair indication that the
work is progressing rapidly, and in an
other year we may see this section of the
North Side all hustle and bustle. The
work of tunneling towardß Ebervale will
now be pushed rapidly, but it will take
fully a year to complete it.
Marriage License Law All Right.
In response to a communication sent
to him as to the act of May 1, 1893,
Attorney General Ilensel has made the
following answer: "As the matter is
not before me officially, I must therefore
decline to express an official opinion. I
do not heßitate, however, in saying to
you that I have advised my own clients
—clergymen and bridegrooms—that the
old marriage law is in force and that
everybody who gets married in Pennsyl
vania should have a license."
