A Highland Cow Meets With a Peculiar
Mishap, and Its Rescue Is Accom
plished After Much Labor—A Few
I*right Motes from Upper Lcliigh.

from the surrounding towns is solicited
by the TRIBUNE. Communications or
items intended for publication must be

HIGHLAND DOTS.
On Tuesday of last week a cow owned
iiy Thomas Brown, of this place, met
with a peculiar mishap. The animal
was on its way to a small pond of water
near No. 1 breaker where the cattle are
accustomed to drink, when the ground
suddenly gave away underneath and
the cow was lost to sight in an instant.
As the beast did not come home a search j
was commenced the next day and was
continued until Saturday, when the j
cavein was discovered and the cow j
found in it more dead than alive. An !
examination of the mine hole proved it
to be the top of a breast pitching about;
45 degrees, but on account of it being i
considered dangerous and liable to cave
in, a battery was put in near the face- of
it somo time ago to prevent the gang
way from being blocked below. Against
this battery the cow was lodged in a
standing position unable to move for
four days and after being taken out and
removed to the stable she fell exhausted.
Yesterday the cow was in pretty good
condition again and will be all right in
about a week.
Work ut No. 3 stripping is continued
steadily, and while the work on the coal
has not commenced yet, a vast amount
of clay is being removed daily.
Edward Fisher removed his family
and household effects to Fern Glen on
Tuesday.
A young daughter arrived at the
residence of Michael Murrin last week,
and mother and child are doing well.
Several small brush fires were visible
on the hillside north of town on Mon
day night.
Work at the mines is very slack here
and it seems as if the vacation is to con
tinue for some time.
The literary society of this place is
only an organization in name now. An
attempt was made last week to sell the
furniture and fixtures of the society, but
the absence of buyers prevented the
sale. Dissension among the members
is tbc cause of its downfall.
UPPER LEHIGH NOTES.
An Arabian woman, who resides in
the vicinity of Ilazleton, and who comes
to this section every month with a large
stock of wares peddling, became ex
hausted while returning from this place
to Freelund on Monday . evening, and
was found lying in a helpless condition
on the roadside. One of the Freeland
delivery wagons passing that way picked
her up and reaching Freeland she went
to her home by train.
A social was given on Monday night
in honor of Miss Ellen Jones at per
father's residence. A number of young |
people were present and had a very
pleasant time.
John Mulligan is able to be around
again after a few days illness.
Saturday is the day set apart for the
employes to receive their pay. On this
occasion a day sooner would put a
different phase on matters. Will it

ed hand, having had it cut with coal in
the mines.
A son was horn to Mr. and Mrs. John
Duddy on Friday morning. Mother

Special Council Meeting,
The members of the borough Council
met in special session last evening.
There were present Messrs. DePierro
McLaughlin, Neuburger, Moore and
Winter. The bond of Treasurer Wil
liamson, in the sum of SIO,OOO, signed

liamson, John M. Powell, 2d, and John
Yannes, was read and approved, as was
also the bond of Street Commissioner
Boyle, signed by himself and James K.
Boyle, in the sum of SSOO. The position
of janitor and high constable were left
over until the next regular meeting.
The question of making arrangements
to contract for electric lights was taken
up. The following resolution was pre
sented by Mr. Neuburger:
Resolved, That the president of coun
cil appoint a committee consisting of
three members, to be called a standing
committee on electric light. The duties
of said committee are to confer and meet
at any time between this adjourned
meeting and subsequent regular, special
or adjourned meetings of council, with
such party or parties representing one or
more electric light companies applying
for the privilege of furnishing electric
arc lights for the purpose of lighting the
streets, alleys or lanes of the borough of
Freeland, and report their proceedings
at any time when the council is in ses
sion.
The resolution was approved and the
president appointed the street committee
to act in that capacity.
U.K. Sweeney, of Drifton, represent
ing the Freeland Electric Light, Heat
and Power Company, was present and
explained the proposition of their com
pany to furnish arc lights to the borough
at SIOO per lamp per annum, for an all
night service, the number of lamps to he
not less tiian twelve at any time. Il
was decided to meet on Monday, March
25, at the council room, at which time
the claims of parties ottering to bid for
the lighting of the streets will he heard.
The secretary was instructed to write to
the Penn'a Globe Gaslight Company
and notify them to have a representa
tive present in accordance with the
present contract held by that company
with the borough.
The street commissioner was given
permission to have the stones now lying
in the park broken and distributed
where needed.
The secretary was authorized to notify
the county treasurer to pay all money
due the borough from licenses to Attor
ney John D. Hayes, to be by him paid
to the treasurer upon his order.
Lookn Like a Murder.
Residents of Mill Creek, a village
above Wilkes-Barre, were thrown into a
state of excitement on Tuesday night by
the report that a tragedy had occurred
near there at the Keystone mine. Pat
rick Scanlon of that place was crossing
the railroad track when he came upon
evidences of a struggle ami possible
murder.
On the railroad was a coat saturated
with blood and in the back was an open
ing cut down and through the collar as if
a knife had gone through. In the coat
was a letter written in Slavish from a
mother in Austria to her son in this
country, hut the name is missing, the
letter beginning "My dear boy" and
being signed "Mother." Down olt the
track and leading into the woods was
more blood, as if the body was carried
into the woods and there buried. The
county detective is investigating.
A llrakemun Injured.
James Costello, a brukeman on engine
No. 1, of the D. S. & S., was severely in
jured shortly after commencing work on
Monday morning. lie was standing on
a car and was knocked off by striking a
beam of the crane near the shops at
Drifton. He failed to notice the beam,
as his back was toward it, and the col
lision threw him to the rails, causing
severe internal injuries.
He was attended to by I)r. Geo. S.
Wentz, and then removed to the resi
dence of Daniel Bonner, in the Points,
where lie boarded. His home is at
White Haven, and several of his rela
tives and friends called upon hirn this
week.

FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, MARCH 15, >894.
BIG JOE'S SUIT.
An Interesting Case Began In the Courts
at WilkcH-ltarrc.
One of the most interesting suits in
the history of the county was com
menced on Tuesday at Wilkes-Barre
before Judge Woodward. Four men,
Joseph Matuskowitz, John Tomiskey,
Wassel Frinko and John Barno, Poland
era, were on February 4,1891, shut in by
a fall of rock and coal in the mine of J. i
C. Ilaydon & Co., at Jeanesville. Nine-!
teen days afterwards they were rescued j
barely alive, and, after a long sickness,
recovered. They have commenced suit j
against the company for SIO,OOO each,
and the case of Joseph Matuskowitz, or
"Big Joe," as he is called, is now on i
trial. The plaintiff's side of the case |
consists of some of the most thrilling j
stories of heroism ever heard, while j
"Big Joe's" story of the sufferings and
the thoughts of himself and companions
during those nineteen days broughttears
to many eyes.
The rescue of the men stands without
parallel in the mining history of the
world. Four small pieces of bread were !
all they had to eat, which were consum- i
ed in two days. They were without j
anything to drink, save a few mouthfuls ;
of hitter sulphur water, and for the last!
six days of their confinement wero too
weak to get that. They had to face not
merely deatli by starvation, but from
suffocation, being in an atmosphere so !
full of black damp that no light would
burn. That in spite of all this they
came out alive is little short of a miracle.
After telling how they went down the
mine and while at work heard the crash
of the fall, were knocked down by con
cussion and then tried to find their way
out, "Big Joe" went on to tell the story
of thoir sufferings.
"We crawl up in breast," lie said,
"where air good, and light lamp. We !
have three or four little pieces bread in
dinner buckets, little pieces, size of my
hand; we break 'em in little hits to make
last long, but they all gone in two days.
We thought eat rats, but no rats there;
then, five or six days, when awful hun
gry, we scratch bark off props and cat it.
Two days after fall the light she burn j
out. Once we build little fire and boil
some sulphur water; it awful bad, but j
we drink it; after ttiat we lie down and
do nothing, just sleep and wait, till we
got so hungry and thirsty we could not I
sleep; then we wait and have awful pains,
all time; we thought we die and think
we dead, and then next we know we was
up in the engine house and doctors was
giving us whisky."
Of the nine men drowned and four
suffocated Joe knows nothing. The
claim for damages is based upon the al
leged negligence of the employers.
Au A gcil Burned.
Mrs. Mary Campbell, an aged woman
residing in Scranton, was burned to;
death at her home at 7 o'clock on Tues.!
day morning. She lived with her
daughter, Mary Cawley, and while the j
latter was out in the barn milking a cow i
Mrs. Campbell, who is perhaps 80 years j
of age, moved to the fire to remove a
kettle. Her clothing caught fire and the
flames enveloped her aged form.
The daughter hearing her mother
scream rushed in and endeavored to
subdue the flames. Before she had sue- |
ceeded in doing so, her mother had been j
fatally burned, and lived hut a short I
while.

Two Ilodie* Recovered.,
i At 10.30 o'clock on Monday night the
j body of one of the miners who were
, ■ caught by the'fall in the Gaylord shaft
. at Plymouth on February 13 was recov
. ered. It was found beneath a large
I mass of coal and debris, and death must
have been instantaneous. The body
was in an advanced state of decomposi
tion, and it could scarcely be recognized,
j The relatives of Peter F. McLaughlin
] identified it by parts of the clothing and
took it in charge. The funeral took
place on Tuesday afternoon. No one
was allowed to view the remains, but
I over 2,000 people attended the services
i at St. Yincent'a-church.- McLaughlin
leaves a wife and large family.
At 3 o'clock yesterday morning an
other body was found standing upright
against the pillar. It was also badly de
composed, but was identified by a Cath
olic scapular which ho wore as Michael
Walsh, of Avondale, who leaves a wife
and six children. He was buried yes
terday afternoon. The funeral, like the
j one the day before, was" largely attend
ed, and was under charge of Division 17,
A. O. 11. of A., of Nanticoke, of which
! both men were members.
The work of recovering the other
,' eleven bodies is retarded by the odor
! that is in the gangway, and the men
| have to use the strongest disinfectants.
A Illrtlulny Anniversary.
A large number of the friends of Fred
I lass, proprietor of the Cottage hotel,
assembled there on Monday evening to
pay their respects to the host and to cele
brate his sixty-fourth birthday. During
the evening Mr. Haas was presented by
John I). Hayes, Esq., with an elegant
gold headed cane, appropriately inscrib
| ed, as a token of the esteem in which he
is held by his friends. 1). J. McCarthy
also presented him, on behalf of several
friends, with a silver water pitcher,.and
a silver goblet was received from Mrs.
Fred Kepping, of Hazleton. Mr. Haas
responded kindly to the addresses made
in presenting the articles.
Music was rendered by the Mayberry
hand and DePierro's orchestra, and at j
12 o'clock the guests sat down to one of j
the finest suppers that could be served.
Apparently, all heartily enjoyed them
selves and upon leaving wished Mr. (
Haas many more happy years of life. I
Ileraombered the PtiHtur.
'■ Rev. 11. A. I. Benner, pastor of St.
John's Reformed church, met with a
genuine surprise on Tuesday evening. |
I The'consistory of the Freeland church
took the lead in the matter and desired 1
in some material way to show their ap- i
preciation of his active services in the !
I church. His birthday falls on March j
14, but in order to forestall and remove i
j all suspicion the party, accompanied by |
! a large numbei of the male members of ;
the church, on Tuesday evening called
at his residence, and in a neat address
by Mr. Kerachner, presented him with a :
costly Hpring overcoat, a suit of clothes, |
a handsome purse of money, and a
I beautiful door bell.
! The pastor was completely surprised, i
and in response to the presentation he ;
! stated that of all the things most needed, '
: their choice of gifts was timely, appro
priate and most acceptable.
Secretary Selected.
It is said that Poor Directors Monroe,
I Harleman and McC'ready have decided
i that the secretaryship of the board will
he given to A. M. Neumuller, of Lans
ford. Their selection is causing consid-1
erable talk throughout the district, as
the board is composed of three Rephb
licans and Mr. Neumuller is a Democrat.
The only competitor he had for the
position was B. F. Davis, of this place,
whose claims were supported by the Re
publicans of the entire region. In turn
ing down an active mdmbor of the party
the directors have aroused a strong feel-!
ing against themselves among the Re- |
publicans of the North Side.
A Freeland Will rrobuted.
The will of Mrs. Ellen Given, deceas
ed, of Freeland, was probated at Wilkes
llarre on Tuesday, and is as follows;
The entire estate is given to her hus
band for use during his natural life. At
his deatli she gives to. her niece, Ellen :
McDonald, SSOO. The balance of the
estate Is to be given share and share
alike between Rose Gallagher, Mary
McGill, Ellen McDonald, Bernard
Mooney, Susan Keenan, Joseph Gal
lagher and Ellen Heincer. John D.
j Hayes, Esq., is named as executor.
Kelly iu Manage Allentown.
The signing of Mike Kelly to mnnage
the Allentown State League club crowds
out nearly all the men signed by 51 ana-1
ger Hanlon, Kelly's predecessor. Only j
| a few of the players signed by Hanlon }
[ will be retained. The others will bo
taken by Hanlon to Hazleton.
It is feared that the Allentown club,
with its National league players, will
prove too strong for the State league,
and there is some talk of joining the j
Eastern League.
