DEATH IN A MINE HOLE.
SAD FATE OF A YOUNG MAN WHO
WENT BATHING.
Unable to Swim, .lames Mellon Was
Drowned in a Cave.lll at No. 4 .Slope,
Wooileide, on Saturday Went Down in
Slight or Ills Companions.
A sad drowning accident occurred on
Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock in a
large mine hole at No. 4 Woodside.
With three or four companions James
Mellon, a well-known young man of the
Points, wont bathing in the cave-in. It
was the first time he had been in the
water at that place, and was very timid.
Being assured that there was no great
danger he ventured in, but after walking
about a short time he suddenly found
himself in deep water.
In his struggles he grasped his cousin,
John Johnson, but the latter was unable
to assist him, and to save himself he
had to leave his friend and swim to the
shore, which bo reached utterly ex
hausted. Mellon immediately sank, and
aftor remaining under water for about a
minute, he rose again for an instant.
The others who were swimming could
not reach him before he went down the
second time. Although they waited near
where lie sank for some time he did not
come to the surface again, and then help
was summoned from Freeland to recover
the body.
Several large hooks were procured,
and willing friends began tbe work of
dragging the dam. The bottom of the
hole was filled with roots, logs and other
debris, which interferred with the work,
and it was nearly 8 o'clock that evening
wl en one of the hooks raised up the
lifeless body. He was immediately
taken to the residence of Daniel Boner,
with whom he. resided.
The mine hole in which the accident,
occi rred is a very dangerous spot, and
several narrow escapes from death have
occurred in it the past three years. It
rangis in depth from eight to twenty
feet, and only in very few places can
one stand in less than five, feet of water.
It hts, however, been n popular bath-!
ing place for several people, and was i
know ias "Buzzards' Bay.'' It is about!
fifty yards long and twenty in width,
and is situated a short distance from St.
Ann's church, near the road leading
to Upper Lehigh and Drifton,
The young man who met such a sud-,
den death there on Saturday was highly
respected, lie was a son of John Mel
lon, who at present is at the Soldiers' ,
Home at lioanoke, Va., and a brother of ,
Mrs. Daniel Doner, of the Points, and
Thomas Mellon, of Wilkes-Barre. His
mother and brother John have died !
within t:ie past throe years, lie was
aged 18 years. The funeral takes place
this afternoon at 2 o'clock. Interment:
at St. Ann's cemetery.

made. The children are always treated
liberally by these generous ladies and
a donation is made to each of the schools.
As on the Christinas week, the littlo
ones look to the Fourth as a time for
rejoicing and thu kindness shown to the
children by these ladies is highly appre
ciated by old and young.
It is reported that during July and
August the collieries here will be oper

days this week.
Thomas O'Gura and Condy O'Do. 'I,
of Silver Brook, were visiting fri ,s
here yesterday.
The electric cars will be running be
tween this placeaud Ha/.leton tomorrow,
but there is not much hope of them
reaching Freeland before two weeks
from now, as considerable work must be
j done on the bridges and track at this
place. Much delay was caused by the
company's inability to procure the lum
ber as promptly as expected.

ing her three years' stay here, and gives
promise of becoming an energetic teacher.
BASE BALL POINTS.
The two first and the two last innings
in the game here yesterday were inter
esting, but the remainder of the time
of play was passed in a listless manner.
The Wilkes-Barre club was unable to hit
Welsh to any extent, and the Tigers
could not do much with Frank's curves.
It was a pitchers' battle all through and
honors wore about evenly divided. The
home team scored its first run in the
second, which was followed by three for
Wilkes-Barre in the same inning. The
fourth brought the Tigers three more and
another in the fifth made their score
five. Wilkps-Barre got one more in the
eighth, but were unable to add any
more to their credit, and went home
defeated, 5 to 4.
A number of errors were made, but
these were offset by sharp fielding and
good playing afterward. The rally that
the visitors took in the eighth inning
made the game exciting, and again in
the ninth they would have tied the score
but for the sharp work of the Tigers.
With a runner on second the ball was
hit bard to right field and for an instant
it looked as if the score would bo tied
and the game probably lost, but Brislin
started for the bail and made one of the
prettiest Hy catches seen in the park this
season, retiring the side.
The second game between the Fear
nots and the Ihizlcton Athletics was
played yesterday on tho former's
grounds, and was won easily by the
Drifton boys. The score was 17 to 8.
The Fearnots expect to play the Silver
Brook club at Drifton on Sunday next.
The Tigers have four games won and
one lost.
The game on the morning of the Fourth
at the park between the Tigers and Fear
nots promises to be an exciting one.
The Tigers won their last game against
this club by a narrow margin, and as
both teams have been strengthened and
had considerable practice since, the
game will be stubbornly contested. Flay
will commence at 10 a. m.
Mention of Ottlcrrx.

POPULAR CAPE MAY.
A New Railroad to America's Oldest ■
Watering l'lace.
Historically, and in point of natural
advantages and attractiveness, Cape
May is the most important seaside re
sort in the United States. Its career as
a sanitarium and pleasuring place dates
back to the closing years of the last cen
tury, and until a comparatively recent
period, it was virtually without a' rival
even Long Branch, in its palmiestdays
conceded its superior prestige. For
many decades prior to the civil war it
was regarded the summer capital of the
nation, and upon its broad beaeli were
gathered each summer the great political
and social notabilities of the country,
the intellect and the beauty of tho
north and the south. In the more im
mediate past it lias been comparatively
unheard of, a fact due partially to the
inherent conservatism which has always
distinguished it, hut more largely to the
distraction of popular attention to newer
and moro vociferously "boomed" resorts
along the coast.
Now, however, it is believed that Cape
May is about to resume its ancient pres
tige and reassert its proud eminence
among seaside watering places. This
revivification of the grand old resort is
anticipated as a direct result of the in
creased and improved railway facilities
which will be supplied by the new
South Jersey Railroad, recently com
pleted, and we way expect to hear a
grent deal of Cape May during the
summer.
The South Jersey Railroad extends
from Winslow Junction, on the Reading
Railroad's Atlantic City line, to Cape
May, with branches to Sea isle City,
Ocean City, Avalon, Wildwood and
other resorts, it lias been in operation
to Sea Isle City for nearly a year, and
was opened to Cape May on Saturday,
June 23, the remaning points to ho
reached later in the year. The new line
to Cape May is described as "straight as
a siring and as level as a table," substan
tially constructed with a view to the
highest speeds, and materially shorter
than any other road to the Cape. The
equipment is all new. Hard-coal loco
motives of the speediest type, and cars
of novel and remarkably elegant con
struction, will compose the flying ex
press trains, and it is promised that a
very considerable shortening of time
will be effected. The Philadelphia sta
ti°ns of the new road are the Reading
Railroad ferries, at Chestnut street and
South street wharves, and through tick
ets to Cape May hy Hie .South Jersey
Railroad route will ho sold at tho princi
pal stations of the Reading, Baltimore
and Ohio, and New Jersey Central
Railroads.

I3c:ul I'ish in tlio Schuylkill.

The Owner Is Responsible.
The supreme court has decided that
the owner of a dog is responsible for all
damages caused by the animal. If he
bites anyone, if he barks at a horse and
causes a runaway or in anyway injures

be well for the owners of dogs to note
this fact.

Deafness is caused l>y an inflamed con

and this tube restored to its normal con
