Tlireo of the County Nominees Were Born in Old Luzerne, One in Carbon County, One in Monroe and the Oilier in the City of Philadelphia. The citizens who wore nominated' at the Democratic county convention last Tuesday will bo before our readers many times before next November, and a brief sketch of each of them will enable the voters to understand the men who are soliciting their help in this cam paign. A perusal of the following short biographies will show that the Demo cratic nominees have the necessary edu cation and qualifications to perform the duties of the office to which they aspire. The first sketch is that of WILLIAM 8. M'LKAN. William Swan McLean, the Demo cratic candidate for judge, was horn on May 27, 1842, at Summit llill, Carbon county, Pa. lie prepared for college at Dana's academy, and graduated from Lafayette college in 1805, delivering tin valedictory address. In 1808 he took the degree of A. M. and delivered the master's oration. lie read law with (J. Hyron Nicholson and was admitted to the bar of Luzerne county on August 19, 1809. From 180)0 to 1809 ho was a mem ber of the board of school directors of Wilkosbarrc township; in 1875 was elect ed city attorney (which position he has held continuously ever since) and was elected attorney for the county commis sioners in 1883. He is also attorney for the boroughs of Wyoming and Parsons. In 1879 lie, was the Democratic candi date for judge, hut was beaten with the rest of the ticket, by means of the Labor Reform ticket. Mr. McLean is, and has been for a number of years, president of the First National bank. He was mar ried on November 23, 1871. to Anna S., daughter of George 11. Roberts, of Phila delphia, and they have four children —George Roberts, William Swan, Mar garet Stevenson and Percy Craige Mc- Lean. A. LKK STANTON. Ashbel Lee Stanton, the nominee for sheriff, was born in Exeter township, t his county, on May 11, 1855, and educated in the public schools. At 18 years of age he went into the butchering business at West Pittston, and subsequently was salesman for Rommel & Co., market mer chants in Wilkesbarre, for five years, then returning to West Pittston and re suming butchering. Mr. Stanton serv ed as a member of the Democratic coun ty committee of the second legislative district for three years, has represented his district as delegate to the state con vention and served two years as burgess of West Pittston borough. He was a candidate before the Democratic conven tion in 1888 for'clerk of the courts, but failed to secure the nomination. Three year later, however, he was nominated and elected, and since his retirement from the office in January last has lived on his farm in Exeter. Ho Is a thorough Democrat, and is popular with men of all parties. J. K. I'. FKNNKK. James Knox Polk Fenner, nominee of the convention for controller, was born in Shawnee, Monroe county, on July 20. 1844. He lived in Monroe county until 1803 and during the last three years of his residence lie was employed as a teacher in the public schools. lie left Monroe county for Wilkesbarre. where lie entered a drugstore, remaining there until 1806, when he accepted a position of manager of tiie L. *fc S. company store at Ashley. He continued in this posi tion until the L. & W. Coal Co. took possession, when he opened a store for himself, continuing it for a number of years. Mr. Fenner stands so high in pnblic esteem in Ashley, a veritable Re publican stronghold, that lie has served as school director, member of the town council, secretary of the council three terms, and is at present serving his second term as justice of the peace, and his fourth as burgess. Notwithstanding that there is a question as to the legality of the act establishing a controller, Mr. Fenner was the first to enter the light and is willing to take his chances. He is an aggressive lighter and will work hard for the success of the ticket. He is admirably fitted by education and ex perience for the position and will not only poll his entire party vote hut will draw largely from the other side. JAMKH J. MAI.OY. James J. Maloy, the nomineo for re corder, was born in Stockton, this coun ty, on March 20, 1860. lie was given a thorough common school education, and after passing through that he entered the mines, following the hazardous oc cupation in the collieries about his home until 1881. In the latter year he met with an injury in the. Lattimer mines which lias crippled him for life. After his recovery he was appointed su pervisor of Hazle township, in 1883, to serve out* the unexpired term of liis father, which position lie filled to the entire satisfaction of the township's tax payers. In the spring of 1884 he enter ed business here as hotel-keeper, and is still engaged in the same. The nominee has taken an active interest in Demo- cratic politics, and the candidates of the party, without any exceptions, have found in him a true and steadfast friend. Ho has never before aspired to any office, and is the first candidate from Freeland or Foster to be given a place on either county ticket. The voters, irrespective of party affiliations, should stand by the man thus honored and do they can to have the North Side represented by an elected official in the court house. In all parts of the county where Mr. Maloy is known he numbers his friends by the hundreds, for his gentlemanly qualities and genial disposition have won him the respect of all with whom lie becomes acquainted. JOHN K. I'KKKINK. John E. Perkins, the nominee, for coro ner, was born in Philadelphia on Octo ber 24, 1844, and at the age of three weeks removed to Baltimore, where he continued to reside until Byears old. At that age. In? removed to Pittston. where lie worked in the mines until reaching manhood. On April 19, 1861. in response to President Lincoln's call for volunteers, Mr. Perkins enlisted in in the 11th Penna. Vols, for three mouths and at tiie expiration of that time re enlisted, hut soon after was discharged on account of disability. Ho returned to Pittston and soon after opened a general merchandise store, continuing there until the great strike of 1870-71. when lie succumbed to the inevitable, losing about 910,000. Nine years ago lie went to Wiikesbarro as deputy recorder under Joseph Glonuon. At the expira tion of his term he was appointed to a clerkship in the commissioners' office, and later deputy coroner under Dr. Trimmer. In the latter position lie lias conducted the business of the office and given entire satisfaction. lie is a man of intelligence, good judgment and businesslike habits, and fitted by exper ience for the office. 11.

He is popular at home, as is indicated by the fact that he has been selected as engineer and sur veyor of the city of Pittston, and every one acquainted with liiin speaks in highest terms of his ability and per sonality. Convent Ituihliiig on Fire. St. Ann's convent and parochial school had a narrow escape from des truction by fire last evening. The Young Ladies' Sodality meets in one of the rooms on the upper floors, and while the members were leaving the'building after adjournment the lace curtains about the altar was discovered ablaze. The altar was covered with a number of i m flu nun able articles, which also took fire, and for a time it looked as if the handsome building would he burned. Before it was extinguished the altar and its costly furnishings were ruined. Many of the articles destroyed were presented to the sodality, or obtained at considerable expense, and the loss to the society will lie quite severe. The fire was probably caused by the curtains blowing against a lighted candle. Tuiiipernce Convention. The convention of the Catholic temper anco societies composing the fourth district of the Scranton C. T. A. Union, was held in llosack hall, Audonried, yes terday, completing the second year of the quarterly conventions. Delegates from nearly every society in the region were present.

The Tluem Loso to Lancuxter After Tle iOK the Score Twice. One of the best games of the season ill the Tigers Athletic Park was played yesterday between the home club and the Lancaster State league toam. It was interesting because of the pretty playing by both sides and the tlolng ot the score at different times. The visi tors found lirlslln's delivery much ft. their liking iij the first two innings, and by making seven hits, two of which weri two-baggers and one a home run, suc ceeded in scoring five times. In tin third inning Keener took lirislin's place in the box and the change put a stop ti the run-getting for awhile. Lancaster's Held work was quick and accurate, and for four innings not a Tiger got as fai as first base. This was partly accounted for by Ely's puzzling pitching. The Tigers could not find him witii any degree of strength, and the best they could do was to hit the ball right Into file hands of the fielders, who did not fail to accept every chance that came their way. In tiie fifth Inning, however, they dropped onto his curves a little bit and made live runs in this manner: McGcehan drove out a long fly to loft Held, which Ifest muffed, and Charlie kept onto second base. Gaffney got a base on balls and Schmear made a clean hit to right Held, which caused McGce han to score and advanced Gaffney to third. McFaddon Hied out to ltest and Gaffney scored before the ball was re turned. Ifrislin hit a short grounder to Ely, who threw Schmear out at second, the former capturing first bag by beat ing the ball in the attempt at a double. Keener next hit a hard ball to third which Scallin failed to pick up, and Gillespie made a two-bagger, which scored llrisliu and sent Keener to third. McGarvey then got four balls and thus the bases were filled, lioner drove a hard liner to center, scoring Keener and Gillespie. The side was retired by Mc- Garvey attempting to come home 011 the same hit. This Inning tied the score. Keener kept the professionals down for tiie rest of the game, lint they succeeded in mak ing one run in tiie seventh, which the Tigers tied again in the eighth. Lan caster made another in tiie eighth, and as the Tigers failed to overcomo It In their ninth, the game was lost. The score is as follows: TIOKIIS. I I.ANCASTKK. It. 11. O. A. K.I 11.

The .State league now consists of llazleton, Pottsvillo, Lancaster and C'ar liondale. All the other clubs have given up their franchises, Allentown being the latest to surrender. A new schedule lias been arranged and the four-club league will try to finish the season. The audience was very well satisfied with yesterday's exhibition, and it can be truthfully said that from the fifth inning to the end of the game Lancaster was the worse-scared professional club that has played here. Seyhold's home run hit over the loft field fence was the first over made In the park during a game. ' Hatters from all parts of the country have tried to drop it outside the fence, but all failed before yesterday. The Allentown club has scattered, Milligan and some others are now with Scranton. and the remaining players are signing with Southern league teams. At the park yesterday morning the Stars defeated the Upper Lehigh club in a hotly-contested game. The score was 20 to 17. On Saturday afternoon the Stars won from the Leisenring club, of Upper Le high. 12 to 8. The Travelers of town played at Gar wood yesterday and won by a score of 111 to 15. l'ottsvilli: club will play at Allentown hereafter, under the name of that city.

George Windisch, the Pittston alleged wife-murderer, is now safely lodged in jail, having been caught at Mononga hela, W. Va. At first there was some doubt as to whether the man arrested was really Windisch, hut a telegram front Detective O'Brien, of Wilkesbarre. who went to West Virginia, set ail loubts at rest. The crime which Win lisch is said to have committed is one >f the most brutal of the many horrible Aifo murders staining the name of Lu '.erne county. Windisch is aged 54, and lis wife was five years his junior. The former was of dissolute iiahits and an indolent nature, while the latter was frugal and industrious, and besides pro viding for two children, helped to main uiin her husband. On the evening of April 4 the neigh bors heard Windisch quarreling, but about 10 o'clock the noise ceased, and nothing more, was thought of it. On the following day Windisch or his wife not being visible, the neighbors began to talk about it and make, inquiry. Next morning they went to the Windisch house and entering the parlor a horrible sight greeted* them. The floor was covered and the walls spattered with blood and evidences of a struggle, were seen on every side. In the centre of the room lay the form of Mrs. Windisch, an old piece of carpet thrown carelessly over her body, but her face was uncovered. The eyes and mouth were wide open, and the whole top of head had been crushed to a pulp with repeated blows. A large carpenter chisel lying close by, its handle and blade covered witii clotted blood, told the story of the crime. Windisch fled immediately after the crime and it was thought he had gone to < Europe. Detective, Barring is now in Germany looking for him. Chief of Police Loftus, of Pittston. and Detective O'Brien are credited with the capture of the murderer. Anthracite Foal Figure*. The output from the Pennsylvania an thracite mines in 1894 was 64,308,141 tons, valued at 979,488,063. In 1893 the product was 48J35,393 tons, valued at 985,685,078, showing a decrease in 1894 of 1.827,162 tons. The average price de clined from $1.94 per ton in 1893 to 81.85 in 1894. In quoting the average price per ton it must he remembered that only the marketed product of anthracite is considered, no value being placed on the colliery consumption. The average" price obtained by dividing the total value by the total product would be 81.79 in 1893 and 81.69 in 1894. "The nu in her of inon employed in the anthracite mines in 1894 was 131.603. who averaged 190 working days, against 132,944 men for 197 days hi 1893. In addition to the anthracite production of Pennsylvania in 1894 there were 71,570 short tons mined in Colorado. Bociali*l* In the Field.

The nuns who were employed as teachers in the Gallitzin public schools, near Johnstown, and to punish whom the garb bill was made a law, have re tired. They are Sisters of St. Joseph, and although urged by directors and patrons of tiie schools ai Gallitzin and Lilly to accept positions as teachers In the schools and test the constitutionality of the garb Dill, persistently dot line to do so, giving as a reason that tliey will not violate a law of the state, however unjust or unconstitutional Llicy may re gard it. As a consequence the schools in these place* will he Ii 1 loci by other teachers. A Home for Odd Fellows.
