Mr. Leisenring died on September 20 last in Hamburg, Germany, while making a tour of Europe, and left an estate amounting to sev eral millions. The personal estate is appraised at $1,083,904.33. CHANGES MADE QUICKLY. It was just 12 o'clock, midnight, of Saturday evening last that a representative of this paper wended his way t-. the Electric Light Com pany's building on Birkbeck street, where an iinportnut change in the machinery was to take place, as noted in these columns in a pre vious issue. The lights were burning brightly and the busy hum of the machinery betoken ed but little the lull soon to be. We found a number of workmen, together with President Fred. W. Bleckley, of Scranton, to whose en ergy much of the success of the plant is due, General Manager Meyers, Superintendent Orr, Superintendent of the Water Company Fisher, and others. The superintendent of the Subur ban Electric Light Company, of Scranton, W. J. Jones, was also present, and supervised the electrical chunges. Mr. Jones, although but a very young man, has a wonderful tact for electrical and mechanical work. As originally located, the boilers, two in number, return tubulars of about 2ut) horse power, are on the east side facing south, while the first engine, a vertical Westingliouse of 150 horse-power, was placed in the north side driving the incandesant and arc dynamos on the south side. The new engine, a horizontal Weston, 15x16 inches, stands in the west front end of the building, which is about 40x50 feet. As the driving belts would not have hud sulli ciont length for the best results an addition was built to the west or front end of the build ing over the engine, which projects beyond the confines of the building as originally erected. Promptly at 1 o'clock Hunday morning tin- 1 plant was shut down and the men begun work upon the proposed changes. While some "Jacked" up the old engine, others made the 1 necessary changes in wires, taking up dyna mos, etc. Everything, jacks, ropes, blocking, tackle, etc., had been previously prepared and a busier and more orderly crowd it would have been hard to find. By 9a. m. the pon derous engine was off the foundation and was moved twenty feet away. Then the masonry was cut down, floors made and anchored se curely in the foundations, dynamos moved and connected and by 4 p. m. everything was in shupe for light, the engine running smooth ly. It was really a feat to do all the changing of machinery and switchboards, with their com plicated wire connections, belting, etc., and to do it so well that not tbcslighest hitch or acci dent marred the proceedings. The men were tired and the genial Mr. Bleckley, with a fore sight that showed not only business qualities but humanity us well, had a lunch of hot col fee and sandwiches on hand to which, it is needless to add, full justice was done. The writer and the public in generai were much surprised to find that, although advertised that "no light for Hunday evening," the well-laid plans of the promoters rendered possible the sucessful completion of the work in about half the time expected. Mr. Bleckley, accoui puuied by Electrician Jones, left for Sc run ton next morning. Mr. Spoor, of the Weston Engine Company, Painted Post, N. Y„ was here on Tuesday noting the workings of the new engine and ex pressed himself us much pleased with its be havior. He hopes to furnish another engine in the near future lor the southwest front, as it is the intention of the company to get an additional engine as soon as space and founda tions can be prepared. Some idea of the work can be obtained when we stute that the engine has a floor space of 144x87 inches and weighs complete 20,UU0 pounds or ten tons. ORGANIZED A LOCAL BOARD. General Representative D. W. Jackson, of the State Standard Building and Loan Associ ation, of Pittsburg, has been in town for a week past in the interest of his association. As a result of his efforts a local board of that as sociation was orgunized on Tuesday evening ut the Central hotel. The officers elected are as follows: President—Joseph Neuburger, merchant. Vice president—M. H. liunsicker, hotel keeper. Secretary and director—H. W. Fuckler, baker. Treasurer—H. W. Monroe, dentist. Attorney—Clias. Orion Htroh. Physician—Dr. H. M. Neale. Appraisers—John M. Cunnius, builder and contractor; A. Rudewiok, general merchant, and John Dusheck, bottler. Directors—Michael Zemany, John M. Cun nius, A. Rudewick, John Dusheck, S. Rude wick, and H. L. Edmunds, principal of the public schools. Mr. Juckson will remain in town for some time to insure the successful inauguration of the local board. Applications for a number of shares have already been received. STATE BASE BALL LEAGUE. In reponse to a call issued by 11. 11. Diddh bock, secretary ol the Pennsylvania State Base Ball League, Tor a meeting on Tuesday at the Hotel Hanover, Philadelphia, only B. F. Zerr, of Reading, responded, and the proposed meet ing was abandoned. About the same time, j John J. llanion, of Hazleton; William Sharsig, \ of Philadelphia; Marti i Swift, of Curbondalc; | John Smith, of Pottsville, and John Milliguu, of Alleutowu, held a conference at the Windsor I House, Just around the corner. Han ion signed Sharsig to munugc the Hazleton team, which ' was about the only business transacted. After j the con'crence was over, Hanlon stuted that ; the outlook for the season was very bright* I that there would be ten clubs in the league, and that each would put up a guarantee or SSOO. The league hus secured protection under the national ugreoment. Further business of j the leugue was postponed until Tuesday, on j which date a mooting is scheduled to take place ; at Pottsville. MINERS IN DISTRESS. The dullness of the coal trade the past six months has oaused a great deal of suffering among those who are dependent upon the mines for a livelihood. This is especially true iu the Wyoming region. The families of a number of miners employed by a coal com-j puny in Kingston are said to be on the verge I of starvation. The miners are obliged to stay ; in the mines from 7 in the morning until 5 in the evening for one car. A committee call ed on the superintendent and told him a piti ful and sad story of their condition, stating in the present working of the mine they are unable to make a living, and are badly in need of food. The superintendent promised to look into the matter. Many families have i to keep their children home from school be cause they cannot afford to buy shoes. Fresh bread, cakes, pies, etc., daily ut Lau br.ch's, also choice confectionery. FREELAND, FA, JANUARY 10, 1895. FOR A NEW COUNTY. The new county movement assumed definite shape at Hazleton on Tuesday night when a public meeting was held in the opera house. The greatest entnusiasm was manifested in the meeting. Dr. H. B. Casselberry was chosen chairman and Charles Wilde secretary. The following resolution was unanimously adopted: "Res*lived, That Hon. John J. Coyle, Hon. George Follweilor, Hon. W. R. Jeffrey and Hon. C. W. Kline, be requested to give their aid to introduce and press to a speedy passage the new county bill." A committee was then appointed to call on Senator Kline and escorted him to the hall, in the mean time George H. Troutinan addressed the meet ing. He was followed by it. H. Wright. Both gentlemen dwelt upon the necessity of a divi sion. Senator Quay was complimented in a set of resolutions, to which was added thefollowing: "That it. is the sense of this meeting that should wo lie successful in forming u new county, we can suggest no better designation than to mime it the county of Quay." Papers prepared by a committee were read to show the inconvenience the people are now subjected to. It was also shown that there are in the state now thirty-one counties which are conducted with less expense than the people of the proposed Quay county district are now paying taxes. Senator Kline then addressed the audience ut length. The utter iiupructibility of secur ing justice under the present circumstances, he said, was demonstrated. The suppression of murder and lawlessness which lias been rampuut in lower Luzerne, the speuker said, was impossible. Figures showing the fallacy of the high tax argument wore jalso given. The senator's speech was loudly cheered. Af ter appointing the necessary committees to procure the legislation required, the meeting adjourned with the movement fairly launched. Ills Future* An old farmer and his son called upon me the other day The boy is about eleven or twelve years old and a gawky, ugly dawdler. lie wandered aimlessly about the office, running the tip of his finger over the backs of my books. At last 1 asked: "Well, my boy, would you like to be a lawyer?" "Naw." "A doctor?" "Naw " "Preacher?" "Well, what do you want to be?" "N'awthin'." "liy thunder! that's what you will be!" commented his disgusted father, earnestly.—Harper's Magazine. A Law Repealed. Wheelman—Bicycles are not allowed on the sidewalks here, are they? Villager—No law agin it. Ride on the sidewalk all you want to. "I heard some time ago that you had a law against it." "Yes, we had; but after half a dozen folks jumped into the street to escape baby carriages, only to get knocked down by bicycles, we concluded to re peal the law and let the bicj'cles and baby carriages fight it out."—Good News.

A MISFIT SITUATION. Applicant—What's the job worth? Proprietor—Three dollars a week and my old clothes.—Life. A Profound Mystery* "How is it, Mr. Brown," said the mill owner to the farmer, "that when I came to measure those five barrels of apples I bought from you, I found them nearly a barrel short." "That's very strange, for I put them up in some of your own ilour barrels." "Ahem! You did, eh? Well, perhaps I made a mistake. Fine weather, isn't it?"— Texas Siftings. .lournaliHtlc Limitations.

Mrs. Hicks —I feel lost since yon stopped smoking- cigurettes. - * In New York. "Is he a good artist?" She glanced at his innocent Phila delphia nibs with petulant disdain. "He is a clever artist," she answered pityingly. "No artists are good." * BOROUGH COUNCIL MEETING. The borough council mot on Monday even ing. The following bills were ordered paid: Progress, publishing board of health notices, $3; Patrick Welsh, jaitor, $8.75; Patrick Welsh, feeding prisoners, $1.50; Freeland Water Com pany, rent of lire plugs for quarter, SOO. A bill of $225, for street lights for December, from the Electric Light Company, was laid over for further consideration. A letter from the Water Company was read, asking if it was the intention of the council to accept the three plugs on South Centre street, in the portion recently annexed to the borough, and if so whether the rent should be charged to the borough from the first of the year. It was agreed to accept the plugs. Superintendent George Thompson, of the Lehigh Traction Company, spoke upon the amendments suggested to the ordinance al lowing the Hazleton and Nortii Side Railway Company the right of way through tho bor ough. The eouncilmen agreed to meet again tonight, with the borough solicitor and com pany's representatives, to discuss that ques tion. J. M. Carr, Esq., appeared before council on behalf of John J. Welsh, manager of the opera house, and reqUbsted that $36 bo returned to Mr. Welsh. This amount, it is claimed, was overcharged in collecting license fees. The manager paid $2.50 for each show, and it is said the borough ordinance calls for only $2. A con sultation with the borough solicitor will be held upon the matter before the next mooting. Burgess McLaughlin reported for tho month of December as follows: Receipts, $16.50; foes und coin missions, $6.65; amount due borough, ©9.85. The following amounts wore returned for police service: James M. Gallagher, $8.25; Duuiel Gallagher, 83; Louis Reimer,s2.2s; Dan iel Jouos, $2. The report was accopted. Street Commissioner Boyle reported the amount of work done for December to be $27.57, and the report was accepted. He also presented a bill against the property-holders who had neglected to clean the snow from tlieir sidewalks, which work was done at the expense of the borough. The council instruc ted him to collect tho amount, and to ask tho aid of the borough solicitor, if noeossary. Treasurer Williamson reported the receipts lor December lo be $1,162.65; expenditures, $933.95; balance January 1, $228.70. This re port was also accepted. Mr. Frltzingcr, who was appointed to see about getting lights into the lockup and hose house, reported the company would furnish all the necessary light free, providing the borough would pay for the globes and wiring. The offer was accepted. The committee appointed to adjust tho dam ages claimed by Stephen Bennett, for injuries to his cow, reported they laid utteiulod to the mutter. They considered the borough liable, but did not fix upon the amount of damages. They are to see tho solicitor and report at tho next mooting. The ordinance regulating transient mer chants, who do business in the borough, was read. No action tending to its passage was taken, and it was finally laid over until the next meeting.
