VOL. VIIL NO. 13.
A FOOLISH YOUNG GIRL.
ELOPED WITH A PICTURE AGENT,
BUT WAS CAPTURED.
Mlm Margaret William*, of Hazleton,
Left Her Home and Took Up with a
Traveling Man—Her Father Caught Her
at White Haven.
White Haven had a considerable
amount of excitement last week, which
was something quite unusual for that
quiet borough. The accounts of the af
fair, given by the Journal and the
Wilkesbarro Record, , are as follows: A
young couple stepped from a Valley
train and went to the White Haven
hotel a few days ago. The man regis
tered as C. A. Lemer and wife, of Al
toona, Pa. They passed the time pleas
antly and seemed to be very fond of each
other's company. The following morn
iug a telegram came from the chief of
police at Hazlcton to Policeman llorton
to arrest the yonng man at Fisher's ho
tel and hold him. There being no such
hotel and no certainty as to who was
meant, nothing was done. Later in the
day there was handed to the town con
stable a telegram saying that he should
"lock up the young man who was with
the girl at the hotel and keep him from
the girl's father."
Constable Transue went ton the White
Haven hotel and began to make some
inquiries abont the young man and was
thus engaged when a train came in from
Hazleton. Two men jumped quickly
from the train, and noticing the star on
the officer's vest, rushed up to him and
exclaimed, "Where is ho?" before the
officer had time to reply the man who
made the inquiry caught sight of the
young woman who was known as Mrs.
Lemer, and rushed toward her.
Tho enraged man was Watklns T.
Williams, of Ilazleton, and the man
with him was his brother, John. The
young woman is Margaret Williams,
daughter of Watkius.
Pursued by her angry father, Margaret
ran through the hotel, and was on her
way down stairs when her father at
tempted to catch hold of her, and acci
dentally struck her on the face, and
from tho force of the blow she was
thrown down and slid to tho bottom.
She jumped up quickly, however, and ran
crying to the street, and was there caught
and held. In the meantime the officer
had caught hold of Williams at the top
of the stairway, and when ho saw that
the girl was out of the way ho let
tho father go. and following the direc
tion of the girl, took her to his own
home.
As soon as the father was released ho
wont back to tho platform of the station
and ran after Lemer, who had put in
his appearance. Lemor was caught by
John Williams, and his brother Watkins,
approaching the pair, struck Lemor a
heavy blow on the jaw, knocked him
from his brother's hold, and then rush
ed upon him.
Quite a crowd assembled by this time,
and they separated Williams and Letner.
Lemor asked to be protected from
"Williams. During all this time Williams
made ineffectual attempts to get at
Lemor, and while in the office of the
burgess tried twice more to get at him,
exclaiming that lie would kill him.
Even after Lemer was locked up,
Williams showed his infuriation by offer
ing to give the burgess #5,000 bail if he
would only let hiin have the keys and
get into the lockup witli the prisoner.
Williams finally went homo, but return
ed to White Ilaven on the first train the
next morning, with Officer Trescott and
a warrant. The whole party went to
• Hazleton on 10.13 train, and the case
was settled and the young man set free.
Lemer is an agent for picture frames.
Ho is a good looking young fellow, but
too smooth and too sleek for an honest
man, but was just the kind of a follow
to be taken up by a foolish young girl.
He had been acquainted with tho young
woman only a short time, but had suc
ceeded in infatuating lior.
Miss Williams is 'JO years old, good
looking, well-dressed, and apparently
well-educated. She maintained that she
had been ill-treated at home. She had
left home on Monday morning, with her
father's consent, ostensibly to visit her
grandmother at Scranton. Lemer knew
of her intended visit, met her, and they
stopped at White Haven. She refused
at first to go back home but finally
yielded to the persuasions of her family
and friends. Her mother was killed in
the trolley accident near Jeanesville on
tho 30th of last March. Hitherto she
has held a good reputation and her
acquaintances are much surprised at
her conduct.
Liquor LHW Violations.
A sensation was sprung on the people
who have picnics at Hanover and other
upper end parks of the county when
Louis Tisch, Jacob Miller and other
members of the Saengerbuud Society, of
Wilkesbarre, were arrested, charged
with selling beer at their picnic at
Hanover I'ark, near Nanticoke, without
a license. Constable J. A. Wood swore
out the warrants as prosecutor, and it is
said that a number of liquor dealers who
pay licenses and who are injured by the
wholesale violation of the liquor law are
at the back of the prosecution. The
in on waivod a hearing and entered bail
in 8300 each for their appearance at
court.
The prosecution say they have only
begun this crusade and have served
notice on a number of others, including
many prominent citizens, members of
societies which have sold beer at picnics.
If they extend their suits againt all
parties who sold beer at parks in the
county during the year many societies
in the county will be implicated. A
lierce war of extermination will also be
begun against the speak-easies in and
around the county seat, information
against which has already been lodged.
Following closely upon the arrests of
the Saengcrbund managers camo those
of the Star Social Club members on Sat
urday afternoon. John burke, J. J.
Mackin, Henry Snyder, Geni McCarthy
and Thomas Caffrey, all of Newton and
Ashley, were arrested and gave bail for
their appearance at court. The arrests
of all others connected with picnics at
which the beer was sold during the pres
ent season in Hanover park will be made
as soon as possible.
National Temperance Convention.
The national convention of the Catho
lic Total Abstinence Union of America
was held in New York city last week.
The sessions were very interesting to
temperance people. The union now has
a membership of over 05,000. Father
Cleary, of Minneapolis, was ro-olected
president, and J. Washington Logue, of
Philadelphia, was re-elected first vice
president. James F. breunan, of Mount
Carmel, Conn., was elected se -ond vice
president, and Mrs. Lenora Lake, of St.
Louis, third vice president. Rev. Father
William McMahon, of Cleveland, ().,
who has been treasurer for the past ten
or twelve years, was re-elected. Rev.
Father Alex I*. Doyle was re-elected
general secretary. The next conven
tion will meet at St. Louis on the first
Wednesday of August, 1800.
No Change in the Coul Trade.
It is said that the efforts of the indi
vidual coal operators to bring about a
settlement of the difficulties between the
carrying companies have thus far met
with no encouragement. They have
visited President Harris and the execu
tive heads of several other roads, and
while treated with the utmost courtesy,
they have failed to accomplish the de
sired end, and the situation is exactly as
it stood four months ago. business in
all other sections of the county in im
proving and trade is better than at any
time for two years past. The settlement
of the anthracite troubles would give the
people of the coal region an opportunity
to take part In the business revival, and
the inability of the various interests to
arrive at an understanding is deplored.
On a Visit to Wales.
(Icorge F. Reese, of Hazleton, ono of
the passenger conductors on the High
land branch of the L. V. It. R., will
leave tomorrow for New York, thence
he will sail on Wednesday on tho
Majestic for a brief visit to his native
town, Merthyr Tydvll, South Wales.
Mr. Reese has been a faithful employe,
and the company has granted him a few
months vacation. His many friends in
Freeland and Hazleton wish him a safe
and pleasant journey.

PLAYED A POOR^ GAME.
The Tiger* and the Hamburg Club Gave
an Un*ati*faclory Exhibition.
What can reasonably be said to be the
poorest game of the season, was that
played yesterday afternoon by the Ti
gers against the Hamburg club, of Berks
county. Tho latter came with a very
good record, but after taking the field
for practico it was evident that they
were not in the Tigers class, and the
only thing wondered at was what kind
of clubs they had been playing to obtain
the record they have. No one doubted
that the Tigers would be able to walk
away with their opponents, and for the
first few innings they did it In apple pie
order. It required three innings for the
visitors to &eta bat around.
The Tigers were first at bat and fell
onto Johnson's delivery without any
difficulty from tho start. Five rum
were scored on hits by Gillespie, Mc-
Garvey, GafTnoy, McFadden and bris
lin, and errors by Hartman and Owens.
In the second inning 1 run was scored,
in the third 2 and in the fourth 4 were
made. The ease with which the Tigers
batted Johnson up to this time made
thcin think they had a soft thing of it
for the day, and when they took the
field in the third inning they appeared
somewhat careless and over-confident.
They were rudely awakened, however,
when Hartman opened the inning by
lighting on tobrislin for a three-bagger,
followed by Shollonberger and Lielieke
with two-base hits and Williams with a
triple. Johnson was hit with a pitched
ball and burnhart given a pass. After
this brislin left the box and was replaced
by McFadden. Eight runs were made
in the inning and the score tied.
Rain interfered with the play for
several minutes at this stage of the
game. The Tigers' 4in the fourth gave
them a lead which was met again
promptly by the visitors.
The game then dragged along to the
finish without any particular features.
McGarvey's catch of Williams' long fly
in tho ninth was the only difficult play
made in the game.
The score:

UPPER LEHIGH NOTES.
On Friday morning a passenger train
on tho Central road struck a cow, break
ing one of its legs and crushing the
animal internally. The cow laid dying
near the track all day, and about 7
o'clock in the evening it expired. A
largo crowd of Hungarians, who work
on the stripping here, made a Jersey
splice and bought the cow for 810 from
the owner, John Frisko. They wore
busy cleaning the animal all night.. On
Saturday and Sunday they had fresh
meat three times each day, and at supper
last night the last bone of old "bossy"
was picked clean.
An exciting game of ball was won on

School Hoard Meeting.
Directors McCarthy, Ferry, Welsh and

at tho school board meeting on Thurs
day evening. There was considerable
business to bo transacted, but the board
failed to dispose of any of the work
before it. Tho selection of seats for tho
new building on Ridge street caused a
disagreement which prevented action in
tho matter. A vote on the question of
of single or double seats resulted 3 to 1
in favor of the former, Messrs. Ferry,
Welsh and Timony favoring tho single
while Mr. McCarthy voted for the double
seats. The president decided that the
vote taken did not settle the question,
and an adjournment was agreed to until
tomorrow evening. Half a dozen agents
from as many desk manufacturers
were present to enlighten the board upon
the merits of the school furniture which
they carried.
The proposals for painting and heating
tho building wero not acted upon, neither
was any of the routine business trans
acted.
