DEAD IN THE WOODS.
BODY OF A MAN FOUND ON SATUR
DAY NEAR SANDY RUN.
He Laid Among the Hushes Without
Clothing iind Dentil IleHulted from Ex*
posure— Identified as Thomas Clery,
Who Has a Wife and Five Children.
While two Hungarians, employes of
M. S. Kemmerer & Co., of Sandy Run,
were cutting sprags on Saturday they
came upon the body of a man in the
swamp back of the breaker in that place.
The body was lying in a clump of bushes,
and was covered with only a shirt and •
vest. The remainder of the clothing
was found scattered around at a distance
of about 200 feet from the corpse.
The Hungarians notified Officer
Raught, of the coal and iron police, and
he sent word to Squire Buckley, who
held an inquest with the following as
jurymen: W. B. Koons, W. E. Martin,
J. B. Rumsey, A. G. Raught, Jerry
Woodringand Edward A. Klinger.
The'pockets of the clothes found were
all empty, excepting ono, which contain
ed a miners' certificate issued in the
third district to Thomas Clery, of Ply
mouth, aged 27 years, and who was born
in this country. At the inquest Daniel
M. Gallagher, of Sandy Run, identified
the man as Clery, and stated that he
had worked in liazle Brook colliery with
him in 1887. No other information of
any consequence could be obtained, as
the dead man had hot been seen or
heard of in that neighborhood.
The jury rendered a verdict that death
was caused by exposure, aqd the body
was taken charge of by Undertaker Mc-
Nulty to prepare it for burial at Laury
town.
Yesterday morning John Coyle, of
Ebervale, called upon Squire Buckley
and gave a description of the man. Mr.
Coyle stated that Clery was his brother
in-law, having married his sister, Brid
get Coyle. When last seen he was at
work at Kingston. Mr. Coyle went to
I.aurytown yesterday for the body, and
had it removed to the residence of Wil
liam Amon, of Sandy Run, from which
place the funeral will take place on
Wednesday afternoon at 2 p. m., under
charge of Undertaker Brislin. Inter
ment will be made at St. Ann's ceme
tery. He was aged about 35 years.
liecamte lie Ilroke Hi* l'leilge.
Michael Mangan, of Inkerman, this
county, attemped suicide on Friday
morning by gutting his throat with a
razor. He told his wife he did not care
for any breakfast, and going to his bed
room he drew the sharp instrument
across his throat. Just as he made the
gaslj his twelve-year-old daughter enter
ed the room, and as he again raised the
razor to complete the work she rushed
upon him and took it out of his hand.
The wound is severe and he is not ex
pected to recover.
It appears that Mangan has been for
many years a member of a temperance
society, and a fow days ago, while suf
fering severe pain from a chronic ail
ment of bis right hip, he was tempted
to drink some whiskey. The fact that
ne broke the pledge so preyed upon his
mind that he became temporarily in ane
and attempted to take his life.
An Exciting Time.
. Anthony Ledinski and Anthony Bi
noski were arraigned yesterday morning
before T. A. Buckley, J. P., charged by
Burgess Gallagher with creating a dis
turbance on the streets on Saturday
evening. They were each fined $5 and
$3 for coßts, which they paid.
After making the arrest the prisoners
broke from Officer Fritzinger and ran into
Joe Duberinski's saloon on Walnut street.
They were taken out by Burgess Galla
gher, Officers Fritzinger, Krouse and
Jas. M. Gallagher, but not without an
exciting tussel with several Poles who
were in the saloon. It is likely that
other arrests will follow for interference
with the officers.
Italian Killed at Ha/.lcton.
While a number of Italians were play
ing cards and drinking at Hazleton last
nigbt a quarrel arose between two of
them, resulting in the stabbing of Joseph
Zehr by Vincent Sesesto. The injured
man was cut in the abdomen by a stil
letto, and was Taken to the miners' hos
pital, where, it is reported, he died this
morning. Sesesto was captured and
locked up.
The llurougli Sued.
On Saturday morning Constable Jas.
F. Boyle, of Hazleton, served a sum
mons on Burgess Gallagher, in a suit
against the borough for the recovery of
a road machine which was sent here
last spring by the Western Wheeled
Scraper Company, of Aurora, 111. The
trial comes off before Alderman David
son, of Wilkes-Barre, on Thursday next
at 4 p. m.

CHICAGO'S POOR.
An Army of Over 100,000 in That City
Without Work or Money.
It is estimated that the number of un
employed in Chicago is 117,000, and so
great has their suffering become that
the Illinois conference of charities and
corrections at a special meeting appoint
ed a committee of 100 representatives to
at once proceed to raise a charity fund
of $1,000,000 for the relief of the most
pressing wants of the worthy and deserv
ing poor. Editor Stead, who was at
the meeting, suggested that if the minis
ters and millionaires were turned into
the streets for one night the money
would be forthcoming at once.
W.P. Rend, of the citizens committee,
made the assertion that such a calamity
has never visited Chicago before. The
city's elevators are bursting with sup-'
plies, he said, and yet people are stary
ing for the want of food. The sentiment
of the meeting seemed strong in favor of
getting the city authorities to provide
work for as many of the unemployed as
possible.
By actual count 1,119 men sought
shelter in city hall for Thursday night.
Every effort is being made to relieve the
wants of the poor, but the number in
actual need is so great that many must
suffer before charity can reach them.
Death or Mrs. William Powell.
Mrs. Elizabeth Powell, of Upper Le
high, widow of the late William Powell,
died at her residence at that place on
Thursday evening. Her death, coming
so soon after that of her husband, was a
severe shock to her many acquaintances,
to whom she had endeared herself by
her good qualities. She was aged 72
years, 10 months and 27 days, and was
born at Blaenavon, Monmouthshire,
South Wales.
The funeral took place yesterday after
noon. After services were held at the
residence the remains were taken to
Hazleton, where interment was made in
Vine street cemetery.
Hpoonherger in Trouble.
Henry Spoonberger, whose wife was
killed while crossing the Pennsylvania
Railroad tracks at Hazleton two months
ago, and who was an object of pity !
through the sad accident, was arrested
at Bloomsburg on Saturday by a detec- j
tive of the railroad company for perjury. '
The company had settled for SUOO, but
it now appears that the women was not
Spoonberger's wife, although he swore
she"was. Upon learning this the com-j
pany ordered his arrest, and his real
wife is also after him for his deception. !
Will Get Six Cent* on the Dollar.
L. H. Dewitt, appointed by the court
to audit the affairs of the defunct Rocka
fellow bank, made his report lust week.
He finds the amount due the depositors
to be $443,413.70. The total amount of
available funds after deducting expenses
is $27,598.18.
This will give the 800 depositors six
cents and a fraction on the dollar, and
is considered one of the worst bank
failures that has ever occurred in this
state.
ltlanks for the Auditors.
The new provisions of the Ilaker bal
lot law relieves the township and bor
ough auditors of the responsibility of
procuring tickets for the February elec
tion. The auditors will certify the nom
inations to the county commissioners

places. To secure uniformity in the cer

Wreck at Highland.
Between 5 and 0 o'clock yesterday
morning a freight train was wrecked near
Highland No. 1 breaker. The train was
Jjound for Hazleton and an axle broke
at that place, derailing several cars and
smashing many others into pieces. No
one was injured, and the wreck was
cleared up yesterday afternoon.
Fills the House Every Time.
From the Mahanoy City Tribune.
Kaier's opera house was crowded to
its utmost capacity on Saturday night by
a delighted audience who had gathered
to witness the performance of lloworth'B
Ilibernica Comedy and Speciality Com
pany, one of the jolliest shows on the
road. Good acting and beautiful scenery
were the prevailing features.
The large audience, for two hours and
a half, was thoroughly pleased at the
display of wit, fun and merriment. Mr.
Howorth lias pained a reputation in this
place that will he the means of filling
the house every time he appears.
