HIGHLAND DOTS.
The attention of parents is called to
the fact that many of their children,
who attend the public school, find great
pleasure in playing and loitering near
the railroad at every opportunity. Ail
the passenger trains are due about recess
time and for the children to play in the
vicinity of the railroad is exceedingly
dangerous. Parents should warn their
children against this danger, as the
school property is without a yard or en
closure to limit the play ground the
teachers cannot keep watching them
constantly.
John AVilson, a mute who resides at
South Heberton, became engaged in a
fight with a young man of town on Mon
day and it is said tiie mute was shame
fully assaulted. Wilson's friends are
very indignant about the affair and it is
probable that our pugilist will have to
fight some of them before the trouble
will end.
On Tuesday a man from Ilazleton
made a thorough search of the dog ken
nels of town for a dog which he says
was stolen from him and is supposed to
he hidden somewhere in this vicinity.
He failed to find it.
Some of our handy mechanics have
almost gone daft over their latest achiev
ments. Patents will soon lie applied for
to protect some of their latest work from
infringment.
A valuable mule at the stripping had
an eye knocked out accidentiy by the
driver on Monday.
Assistant Mine Superintendent Marley
gives the collieries an occasional call
now.
Mrs. Canty is visiting at Duryea.
Several Freeland young ladies were in
town visiting on Tuesday.
Patrick Ferry and wife, of Ilazleton,
nre spending a few days here among
relatives.
John Clarke, of Scranton, spent a few
days witli his brother here. He return
ed to his home on Monday.
Robert Boyle, the able and efficient |
master mechanic of Marklc & Co.'s col- |
lieries, has tendered his resignation to }
take effect on November 1.
AI Seitz, formerly of town, had one of
his fingers smashed at the Traction Com
pany's power-house in Ilazleton on Mon
day. He was raising a heavy armature ;
and it fell back upon his hand.
UPPER LEHIGH NOTES.
After sheltering* various families for
twenty-five years, one of the houses
here was vacated last week by a family !
which says it is haunted and is the
abode of ghostly things. It is claimed
that at night people who have gone to
the other world come back and run
tilings to suit themselves until early :
dawn demands their departure. Covers i
are taken from the beds, the doors are
slammed and rapped upon, tapping on j
the window panes and shifting every
piece of furniture to a different place,
is a favorite pastime for the spooks. |
The family, after enduring the company i
of these unwelcome visitors for a con
siderable time, moved to Freeland this ;
week, and say there is no exaggeration
about the tilings they have seen and
heard.
Work of every description in and I
about the collieries here was suspended I
yesterday out of respect for tiie burial '
of E. B. Leisenring at Mauch Chunk.
Patrick Brislin, a young man working
in No. 5 slope, had two fingers severely
crushed while at work on Saturday.
John M. Brogan and James 11. Burns,
spent a few days at Lansford last week.
John Mulligan made a visit to his
parents at Nesquehoning on Saturday.
Many of our young temperance people
attended the ball at Freeland opera
house last evening.
Several of our most prominent resi
dents were at Mauch Chunk yesterday
attending the funeral of E. B. Leisen
ring.
Conrad Seiple, a former resident of
this place, died at his home in Elizabeth,
N. J., on Saturday. His remains were
interred at Ilazleton on Monday.
Sporting goods of every variety, gum
ammunition, etc., at A. A. Bachman's.
Bicycles promptly repaired.
Fifty-five Ilnce for Their hives.
Because Irvin Buffington, a carpenter
repairman, employed at the Luke Gil
der mine, Shamokin, deliberately dis
obeyed orders on Monday night by light
ing his naked lamp while repairing the
brattice in the shaft, his dead body now
lies in his late home, four of his fellow
workmen are also dead, the mine which
was considered one of the most complete
in the anthracite region is doomed to
destruction. The monetary loss to the
Mineral Railroad and Mining Company
will aggregate $700,000, and 900 men
and boys are thrown outof employment.
The dead and missing are: Irwin
Buffington, 35 years, suffocated by
smoke and gas; George Brown, miner,
soffocated and body not recovered;
leaves wife and several children; An
thony Bobert, driver boy, body not re
covered; two Polish laborers, names un
known and bodies not found.
The disaster occurred while about six
ty men and boys were working in the
mine on the night shift. Buffington and
John Anderson, Jr., were making repairs
to the brattice about half-way down tne
shaft when the former lighted his naked
lamp in order to test the air current. A
spark set fire to some of tire dry timbers
and the air current swept the flames up
the airway with lightning like rapidity.
1 he sixty miners made a desperate race
to another opening, but five of them
were caught in the smoke and suffocated.
Suicide of a Polish Miner.
Michael Polan, a miner of Alden,
committed suicide there by blowing out
his brains. Work at the Alden collieries
has been slack for the last month or so,
and Polan was very despondent. On
Monday morning he went to the slope
as usual, only to be told that on account
of scarcity of cars there would be no
work that day.
lie returned to his boarding place and
told the boarding mistress that there
was so little work that he could never
make money enough to send for his
wife and three children, who are in the
old country, and he could not live with
out them. He then went to his room.
Shortly afterward the report of a pis
tol was heard, and when his friends
broke open the door of MB room, he was
dead. He had shot himself through
the head.
A Typhoid Victim Handled Food.
Dr. W. G. Weaver, of Wilkcs-Barre,
surgeon of the Ninth regiment, lias com
pleted his investigation as to the cause
of the outbreak of typhoid fever among
the members of Company F, three of
whom have already died from the dis
ease and twenty others are sick from
the same cause. The first impression
was that the victims contracted the dis
ease by drinking bad water at Gettys
burg.
Dr. Weaver finds, however, that Pri
vate Seitz had typhoid fever when he
went with his company to Gettysburg.
He did not do duty at Gettysburg, but
was assigned to light labor in the mess
tent. Here he handled all the food and
the physicians think that in this way
the germs of the disease were transmit
ted to the other members of the com
pany.
K. 11. Lei MOD ring Hurled.
The body of K. B. Leisenring, the
president of the Lehigh Coal and Naviga
tion Company, who died at Ilomburg,
Germany, on September 20, arrived at
his Mauch Chunk home at 0 o'clock on
Monday evening in a special car over
the Central Railroad from New York
city. The body was accompanied by his
private secretary, William C. Kent.
At the request of the family, no pub
lic demonstration was made. The
funeral took place at 2 p. m. yesterday
afternoon from the residence of his
brother-in-law, Dr. J. S. Wentz.
Mrs. Leisenring, who went to Ger
many when her husband's illness
became serious, was taken sick there
and is unable to return. Her parents
nre with her.
Dan Hart's Nueces*.
Dan Ilart, Wilkes-Barre's popular
young play right and Democratic candi
date for representative in the first dis
trict, has scored a big hit in his new
play, "O'Neil, of Washington, D. C."
The first production was in Seattle,
Washington, and the house was filled.
The Seattle Intelligence)' devotes a col
umn to the new play, and warmly con
gratulates Mr. Hart on his new success.

FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1894.
THE REASON WHY.
LUNAII linlos are sometimes large and
sometimes small, because they are
formed at different heights in the air.
TIIE glow-worm has a brush attached
to its tail, because it is necessary to
show its light that the back be kept
clean.
DECAYING wood and putrefying fish
look luminous in the dark, because they
are really undergoing a slow combus
tion.
IRON bedsteads are safe during a thun
derstorm, because, being good conduc
tors, they keep the electricity from the
body.
SILVER tarnishes when exposed to the
light, because of the actinic or chem
ical property possessed by the rays of
the sun.
A BURNING gas jet is unhealthy in a
bed chamber, because one gas light
gives out as much carbonic acid gas as
two sleepers.
WHITE clothing is cool, because it re
flects the heat of the sun; black cloth
ing is warm, because it absorbs both
heat and light.
THE eyeball is white because the
blood vessels that feed its substance are
so small that they do not admit the
red corpuscles.
TIIK flesh under the nails looks red,
because the nails are almost transpar
ent, and thus the color of the tissue be
neath is visible.
JiinnTNiNO is destructive because of
its enormous power. A flash of light
ning has been calculated to equal
twelve thousand horse-power.
Married Yesterday.
Daniel Coxe, superintendent of tiie
D. S. & S. Railroad, was married yester
day morning to Miss Margaret White
at the residence of the bride's parents.
The ceremony was performed by Rev.
J. P. Buxton in the presence of only the
immediate members of both families.
At 9.30 a. m. the bridal party left on a
special train over the Central Railroad
of New Jersey for a wedding tour. They
have a host of friends who extend con
gratulations and wish them happiness.
Many valuable presents were received
by the young couple from tiieir relatives J
and friends. Mr. Coxe, in his position
as superintendent of the railroad, lias .
won the esteem of its employes, and
they had intended to present him with
a miniature silver locomotive. Mr.
Coxe, however, when he learned of the
plans, requested them to not.
llliiitl People Marry.
Charles C. Gamble, of Luzerne bor
ough, and Miss Susanna A. Bennett, of
Scranton, were married on Tuesday at
Scranton. Interest is added to the wed
ding by the total blindness of bride and
groom, and two others who attended
the ceremony, as well as the blindness
in one eye of another member of the
bridal party.
Miss Bennett is 19 years of age. She
became totally blind five years ago from
an attack of meningitis. She was edu
cated at the Pennsylvania Institution for
the Blind in Philadelphia. Mr. Gam
ble, the groom, is 35 years old, and re- j
sides at Luzerne, this county. He has !
an income sufficient to support himself
and wife. They will reside in Luzerne. '
Young MOD'S Ilull Hchl.
The seventh annual ball of the Young
Men's C. T. A. B. Society at the opera
house last evening was one of the most
successful held by tiie organization and
the largest seen here for some time, i
The ball room was profusely decorated,
and the work of tiie members in
managing the details was highly praised.
Music was furnished by St. Patrick's
cornet band and DePierro's orchestra.
At 1(1.15 p. m. the grand march took
place, led by Master of Ceremonies
James F. Sweeney and Miss Rose
Sweeney, both of Drifton. More than
100 couples took part, and it was one of j
the prettiest marches led at the opera
house.
An Kqiiity Suit.
From tlio Wir es-Barrc Newsdealer,
A suit in equity was commenced on
Monday by James Givens against Mary
McGill et ai. Tiie plaintiff says lie pur
chased a lot from Joseph Birkbeck in
Freeland on August 11, 1880. That he
transfered the deed to his wife in order
to secure himself against financial loss.
On September 27, 1897, she died. A few
hours previously, while her mental fac
ulties were enfeebled, she made a will
leaving all her property, including the 1
aforesaid property to her heirs. Givens
asks thAt die deed be reformed and pos
session given him. Edward A. Lynch
and Ghas. Keck are the plaintiff's attor
neys.
Democratic Mass Meeting.
A Democratic mass meeting will bo
held at the opera house on Saturday
evening. The speakers who are to take
part are Hon. E. B. Coxe, J. L. Lena
han, Esq., and District Attorney John
M. Garnian. In addition to the above
Candidates Hines, O'Boyle, Rice, Schap
pert and McNelis will lie present. All
the voters of the vicinity are invited to
attend.
Meetings will be held at Harwood this
evening and at Eekley tomorrow evening.
The Gallltzen School Case.
The Oallitzen school caso was argued
before the supreme court at Pittsburg on
Tuesday. The case is that of John Hy
song and others against the Bcbool board
of Gallltzen borough. The plaintiffs
were backed by the state officers of the
Jr. 0. U. A. M. in an effort to secure an
injunction to restrain Catholic nuns from
teaching in the public schools. The
hill was filed last April. Attorney T.
11. B. Patterson presented the argu
ments for the plaintiffs, who appealed
from the decision of Judge Barker. lie
laid particular stress upon the claim
that the objection was not to the nuns
individually, but that the fight was be
ing made against them teaching in a
sectarian garb.
Attorney D. L. Ivrebbs represented
the school board. He denied that the
nuns taught and used their garb as em
blems in such a manner as to impart to
the children under their instruction re
ligious lessons and ideas peculiar to the
Catholic Church. He denied that the
directors had violated any statute law,
and claimed that the garb of the nuns
should be no bar to their right to teach
in the public schools.
On the question of the use made by
the teachers of their earnings, Mr.
Krebbs said that if the board had a
right to employ the teachers they had a
right to pay them, and the disposition of
the money could not be inquired into.
The decision of the supreme court
will be of much interest to the anti-
Catholic orders, and they are anxiously
awaiting the verdict.
Says the Kditor Was "Boodled."
"Little Billy" Hines is not a bit
pleased at the way the TBIBUNE has re
moved his mask of hypocrisy, and be
cause it has shown that lie is no more
of a supporter of Democracy than his
opponent, he becomes real angry. In
the Ilazleton Standard's report yester
day of the Democratic meeting at Mil
ncsville on Tuesday night, Billy is said
to have told the people present that the
editor has been "boodled" by the Leis
enring people to aid in defeating him.
This important feature of the cam
paign lias heretofore escaped the atten
tion of tiie TRIBUNE, and in order to
learn the full particularsof the"boodle"
ease the editor will rely upon Billy to
furnish the proof and details. It should
make interesting reading, and our pa
trons know that we seldom let anything
interesting, especially in politics, go by.
The TRIBUNE apologizes to its readers
for its neglect in not learning and re
porting that its editor was "boodled,"
but a full and accurate account of the
affair will be given when Billy tells
all he knows about it. Some time may
be required to draw the story ought of
him, but out it must come, for the TRI
BUNE could not afford to deprive its
readers of any choice news in the
"boodle" line.
Tliere'tt Going to Ho Fun.
There will be merriment created at
the opera house on Friday evening
when that delightful comedy "Our Irish
Visitors" will be presented. This un
usually funny comedy grows funnier
every successive season. Never in the
history of this comedy lias it had sueli a
competent cast. Never has there been
such good, bright musical numbers in
troduced, and never has there been such
original sprightly dances, with scenic
effects and general assemble. W.J. Ma
son, who heads the cast, is quoted as
being tiie brighte t young Irish com
edian on the American stage today, and
in "Our Irish Visitors" will have more
than abundant chances to display his
versatility.
Frank Davis, whoso every movement
creates a laugh, will lie his opposite,
and as the cast surrounding them con
tains such well-known people as Miss
Victoria Walters, from Koster & Rial's,
New York, Miss Emily Northop, of the
Duff Opera Company, Ed. Rowland,
Lillian Keetie and many others of equal
calibre, it is safe to predict more than
ap enjoyab'o evening's entertainment.
Tlow to Save Money.
The amount of money a man lias saved
at the end of a year does not depend up
on the salary he received, but upon the
use lie made of it during the year. If
lie buys the best goods at the lowest
market prices lie is sure to come out
ahead, and this he can do in the cloth
ing line by dealing with that reliable
and responsible clothier, I. Refowich.
liis present assortment of piece goods
is without doubt the most complete in
the Lehigh region, embracing, as it
does, the best that was in the city
markets.
All his goods are new, bright and of
tiie latest style and suits will he made to
order at ready-made prices. He has no
rent to pay and can easily do it. The
beat fits are guaranteed and clothing
made by him will he kept in Repair free
for one year. Nothing like this lias ever
been seen in Freeland before. Give him
a call. Square treatment assured.
