Hurghir* on Their Hounds Again.
The people of Freeland who reside
outside the business portion of town are
becoming alarmed at the numerous
petty burglaries reported. From all
accounts the night hawks wore out in
force on Thursday night, no loss than
seven dwellings having boon entered
before Friday morning. Strange to say,
they selected the dwellings of several
families wherein they could not expect
to linil many articles of value or any
large sums of money. Up in Birvanton
they investigated the homes of Moses
Tranter, George Sweet, Condy McElwee
and Henry Kishlick, and on Washing
ton street entered the residence of James
Moore. On Ridge street they were
frightened ofT by Condy Boyle, the father
of Postmaster W. F. Boyle, who Inter
rupted their explorations in Ids pantry.
So far as can be learned the burglars
gave their attention principally to
articles of clothing, and the only great
losses reported are on goods of that
character. Something was taken in
each of the places visited, except Mr.
Boyle's. No clue has yet been found
that might lead to their capture.
The residents of the central part of
the town have so far escaped the annoy
ance caused by midnight prowlers.
However, they have nearly all made
preparations to meet the disturbers of
slumbers 011 their next trip, and some
thing in the shape of a funeral or two
will probably follow the next burglary
in Freeland.
Preparing for the Parade.
The Knights of Malta of Freeland
have received letters from nearly all the
commanderles in this section of the
state, signifying their Intention to take
part In the parade here at 4 p. in. 011
May 7, in honor of the state convoca
tion of the grand commandery. There
will be several thousand Knights in
line, providing the weather is favorable.
Reduced rates on the Jersey Central,
Lcliigh Valley, Pennsylvania and the
Reading Railroads have been secured
from all points in the state, and the
number of visitors expected is very large.
In the evening the public reception to
the supreme and grand officers will take
place. Burgess McLaughlin will deliver
the address of welcome, which will be
followed by a musical and literary en
tertainment, including addresses by Su
preme Commander Dr. W. J. Hugh, ol
Pittsbuig; Supreme Recorder Frank
Gray, of Philadelphia; Grand Command
er Dr. E. W. Samuel, of Mt. Carmel,
and Grand Recorder George 11. Pierce,
of Philadelphia.
Saved a Life, Hut Lowt Tier Own.
Annio Dungarbagc, a thirteen-year
old girl, met a dreadful death on Friday
while saving the life of her ton-month
old sister at her home in Wilkos-
Barro. The mother, who was wash
ing, took a tub of scalding water from
the stove and placed it on the floor. She
was then called out by a neighbor, and
told Annie to watch tho baby. The girl
went 011 with her work and was only
reminded of tho baby when it screamed
with pain. She was horrified to find it
hanging over one side of the tub with its
hands in tho water. In an instant she
dashed across the room, and throwing
herself on the opposite side of tho tub,
reached accross and 'pushed tho baby
backward to tho floor, but at tho samo
time she lost her balance and fell for
ward, face downward, into the water.
Her mother, attracted by tho cries of
tho baby, hurried in and pulled the girl
out of the water, but siie was so badly
scalded that she died a few hours later.
Tho Early Inquest.
Tho jury that was appointed by Depu
ty Coroner Gorman to investigate the
cause of Constable Early's death, whose
body was found In a mino hole at Ilar
wood, hold another session last Thurs
day night. Evidence of 110 special In
terest was Introduced, and Early's
friends requested that tho inquest be
continued until today, when they ex
pect to produco testimony that will
conclusively prove that the officer was
foully dealt with. The indifference of
the county officials In concerning them
selves so little about this and other mys
terious tragedies in tho lower end is
causing much talk. District Attorney
Fell has boon asked, it Is said, to give
the matter some attention, but 30 far
nothing has done. County Detective
Eckert spent two days in Hazleton since
the body was found, but ho made no ap
parent effort to unravel tho mystery.
Tonight'* Lecture.
Rev. Father Zurcher, of Buffalo, N.
Y., who is to lecture at the opera house
this evening, will arrive this afternoon
at 2.27 o'clock, and will be met at the
Lehigh Valley station by a committee
representing the Catholic temperance
societies of town, under whose auspices
the leaturo will be deljvepid. Rev.
Zurcher has a widespread reputation as
a temperance orator, and as no admis
sion is to bo charged the audience will
undoubtedly bo a largo one.

THE DEATH ROLL.
People Who Have Recently Gone to
Tlieir Final Keating: Place*.
Patrick F. Lawlor, of Nosquohoning,
died at his home 011 Thursday after
noon. Ho was a son-in-law of John
Molly, of South Heberton, and enjoyed
an extensive friendship among tho poo
plo of Freeland. Tho Mauch Chunk
Democrat says 110 was taken ill with ery
sipelas the week previous, and on Satur
day was compelled to leave his oflice and
proceed to his home. Dr. Kasten was
summoned, also Dr. Ibach, of Mauch
Chunk, and the two did all in their
power to stay the hand of disease. On
Thursday Mr. Lawlor rested well, but
shortly after 4 o'clock a sinking spell
overtook him and In a few minutes he
breathed his last. The heart had re
fused to do its work. It was only a
short time beforo every man, woman
and child In tho village knew of the
death and universal gloom and sadness
prevailed. There was no 0110 In that
town who was more highly respoctod
and esteemed.
Mr. Lawlor was born in county C&van,
Ireland, in 1850. He arrived at Nes
qiiohoning at tho age of 2 years. Ilis
youth was spent about the mines and
his school days were not overly plenti
ful, but being naturally bright and
quick ho easily acquired an education
that was far above the ordinary. When
18 he entered a store as clerk, and five;
year later entered business for himself.
He was in tho mercantile life for fif
teen years and did a tremendous trade,
but tho strike of 1887-88 gave him a
blow from which ho never could fully
recover. In 1801 ho was elected clerk
of tho board of commissioners of Carbon
county, a position ho filled ovor since.
Mr. Lawler died possessed of consider
able property and had a policy of $5,000
in the Penn Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany.
Mrs. Lawler's maiden name was Miss
Sallio Brogan. She is a step-daughter
of John Molly, of Freeland. They
have one son, aged about 13 years, and
an adopted son aged about 0. The
deceased has two brothers, John, of
California, and Thomas, of Philadelphia,
and two sisters, Miss Roso and Mrs.
John McCaffroy, of Ncsquehoning, whose
husband was buried a few weeks ago.
The funeral took place in Ncsquehoning
011 Saturday morning.
Popular Youug Man Dead.
At St. Ann's cemetery this morning
the remains of Thomas Tully wore laid
at rest. The death of this young man,
who was one of Freeland's most popular
citizens, occurred at his home 011 Adams
street, below Luzerne, shortly after 4
o'clock 011 Thursday afternoon. The
sudden illness which overtook him 011
Saturday a week ago was noticed in
Monday's TRIBUNE, and although he
sank lower and failed gradually from
then on, his friends and his physician
did not think his life to be so near the
end. Death was duo to pneumonia,
which fastened its grip upon him with a
tenacity most remarkable. The end
came peacefully and without a struggle.
Mr. Tully was born in Ncsquehoning.
Carbon county, on March 13, 1867, and
was aged 28 years, 1 month and 12 days.
When young li is family romovod to Le
high county, then to old Buck Mountain,
and later to Sandy valley, from which
place ho entered tho service of the
Jersey Central Railroad as brakeman on
tho Drifton branch. Later ho secured
a position on the. D. S. & S., and when
the passenger trains were placed 011 the
road he was given the position of bag
gage-master, a duty that ho performed
with ability and credit, and his obliging
disposition made him popular with the
patrons of the company. Tho officials
looked upon him as ono of their most
valuable men, and his unquestioned
honesty and excellent character won him
the esteem of all his acquaintances.
On August 24, 1892, he was married to
Miss Sallie Campbell, of Eckley, who, j
besides his parents and five brothors,
survives him. Loss than a year ago he
had the residence in which he diod built
for himself. He was a member of tho
Young Men's T. A. B. Society and Divi
sion 19, A.(). 11., and both organizations
and hundreds of friends attended the
funeral at 9 o'clock this morning. A
delegation of the D. S. & S. employes
also attended and presented a beautiful
trjbute In tljo shape of a "Broken Axle,"
consisting of car wijools, Journals, otc.,
with the axle broken in tl]o centr-e. A
requiem niass was read ovor the remains
by Rev. E. A. O'Riolly at St. Ann's
Catholic church, , .
Suicide at Eckley.
Christian Monk was found doad in
his home at Eckley yosterday. Ilis
wife made tho discovery about 5 o'clock
in the morning. Ho had been dead for
several hours. Tho body was hanging
by tho straps of a drilling overalls, which
wore tied to tho top of the bedstead, less
than live feet from tho floor. It was a
deliberate sulcido, as tho man had tlod
the; straps about his neck, attached the
other ends to the bedstead, and threw
himself face forward. Ho pushed his
foot under tho bed as far as ho could,
until his kqeos almost touched tho floor.
In that positiqi) ho slowly strangled
himself to death.
When the family retired tho night
previous, about 11 o'clock, they left him
sitting by the fire. lie had drank near
ly a pint of whiskey during tho evening,
but nothing was thought of that, as he
drank heavily for the past few years.
11(5 was heard coming upstairs shortly
after. Ho slept alone, consequently his
deed was not known of until his wife 011-
tored the room in the morning.
Justice of the Peace B. J. Carr was
notified, and after viewing the position
of the body and the room, took him
down. lie was about 56 years of ago
and leaves a wife and nine children.
The deceased was born in Germany,
but has been a resident of these parts
nearly thirty years. He settled at High
land in 1869 and lived there until about
1880, when he went to Eckley. Mr.
Monk was noted for his strength in his
younger days. He will be buried at
Freeland cemetery at 2 o'clock tomorrow
afternoon.
Condition of the Coal Trade/
Tho sales agents of the anthracite
coal carrying and producing companies
held their monthly conference at New
York on Thursday. It was supposod
that most of them went to tho mooting
instructed by their companies as to tho
courso thoy should pursuo in the mat
ters of continued restrictions and the
general conduct of tho business in the
future. However, the agents spent sev
eral hours in conference and then ad
journed without action, except an
agreement to moot again tomorrow.
Immediately after the meeting the
Lehigh and Wllkes-Barro Company
ordered all its collieries to work full
timo until further notice. Unless the
company has special orders to fill the
ordor must moan that there is another
war browing. While not much atten
tion has been paid to restriction of late,
still actual hostilities have been in a
state of suspended animation. No doubt
the position of the Reading is bringing
on a crisis.
Young Hill'* Hotly Found.
The body of Joseph Hill, son of Cons
table Ilill, of Wilkes-Barre, was found
in tho Susquehanna river opposite Ply
mouth on Thursday. The finding of tho
body clears up the mystery surrounding
his disappearance. On January 7 last,
in company with a girl named Adeline
Pottobone, he went skating on the river.
Later in the evening Hill and the girl
left their companions and started on a
race down the rivor. They were never
soon alive after that. Not returning in
due time a search was made for them,
but thoy could not be found. A rumor
was then set afloat that they had eloped.
The finding of Ilill's body now sets all
rumors at rest. The body was badly de
composed, but tho skates were still on
tho foot. It is thought the girl's body
will soon be found. Ilill was 15 years of
age and Miss Pottobone was 13.
One Killed and One Injured.
The monotonous story of the cost of
mining coal still goes on. Another life
went out at Cranberry on Friday and
another man was Incapacitated from
work for several weeks. William Dugan
and William Weaver prepared a blast
and sought safety in a heading of their
breast. The concussion loosened tho
roof of the heading and it came down
upon both men. Weaver was severely
injured, but will recover. Dugan's body
was found after ten hours' work. Ho
was dead.
May Have a Hearing Today.
John Oschman, who was sent to jail
last Tuesday on the charge of setting
fire to the barn of M. Schwabo, made
application through his attornoy, C. F.
McHugh, on Saturday, to Judge Rice
for a habeas corpus hearing and the
same was granted. The hearing is set
for 10 o'clock, but as somo of the most
important witnesses are out of town, it
Is not likoly to beheld. Attorney Stroll,
for Mr. Schwabo, left this morning to
ask for a postponmont.

THE TIGERS YESTERDAY.
Freeland'* Club Made a Very Weak
Showing AgainHt Shar*ig'g Nine—The
Score Was 22 to 1 In Favor of Hazle
ton—Error* Prevented a Shut-out.
The base ball season in Freeland was
auspiciously opened yesterday afternoon
by a game between Hazleton State
league team and the Tigers. One of the
largest audiences ever gathered in the
park assembled to see tho game, and
while the admirers of the home club had
fow opportunities to root the Hazleton
enthusiasts had many, and did not fail
to take advantage of them all.
Tho Tigers woro outplayed, from the
start to tho finish of tho gamo, Tholr
fielding was ragged, while their batting
was far below expectations.
Tho professionals (ioldod well and
batted tho ball terrifically to all parts of
tho ground. The Tigers were lirst at
bat and were blanked in one, two throe
order. Hazleton came in confidently,
and by making two two-baso hits and
ono three-bagger sent two inon across
tho plate. They continued their run
getting throughout the gamo, making
one in tho second, four In the fourth,
four in the fifth, threo in tho seventh
and eight in the eighth. In tho latter
inning their batting was tremendous.
The lirst man up made a two-baso hit
and each of tho four succeeding batters
did the samo. The effect of their bat
ting in this inning ulono netted thorn
twolve bases.
The Tigers made ono run in tho fourth
on an orror of a hard-hit groundor.
