HAUNTED BY A CRIME.
MURDERER METZGER SURRENDERED
ON MONDAY NIGHT.
The Accomplice of Will llowmnn, Who
P Ih Now Coder Sentence of Death, Gave
Hiinelf Cp at Maucli Chunk—He Was
Haunted by Hl* Crime.
After being at large nearly a year.
George Metzger, the murderer of tin
Arabian peddler, Mike Johns, gave him
self up on Monday night in Mauch
Chunk, and was taken to Wilkesbarn
on Tuesday. William Peun Bowman, a
19-year-old boy, is in jail waiting for the;
day of the execution for this crime.
Metzger is a year younger. Ten months
ago Bowman, whose conscience troubled
him, gave himself up and was found
guilty on his own confession, and sen
tenced to death. Now Metzger, after
wandering all over the country, has de
livered himself into the hands of the po
lice. He, too, was conscience-haunted
and from a big strapping boy of 15(
pounds ho lias wasted until lie does not
weigli 100. Weak and sick and haunted
by his thoughts lie could not hold out.
Three times he went to Wllkesbarro to
give himself up, and three times he
sneaked away again afraid.
W Metzger presented a most pitiable ap
pearance as in? stepped from the train at
noon on Tuesday, securely handculTed
to Constable Lauth. He was nothing
but skin and bones; his eyes, sunken in
his head, shone with a wild, glaring,
haunted look; his face was pale and
drawn and his every appearance showed
the haunted life the boy had led. Ho
did not seem to realize anything or know
anybody, and would speak only a few
wordss. He appeared to be deathly
sick, and if not well taken care of may
change his prison cell for a narrowei
one in the cemetery. Nothing but pity
was heard from those who looked on
this human wreck and many think his
reason is gone.
Metzger was put in jail and District
Attorney Fell notified. Ho ordered
the prisoner to be held. Colonel Mar
tin, the attorney for Bowman and Metz
ger, drove up to the alderman's office
the moment the prisoner arrived. Colo
nel Martin pleaded for a stay of the
hearing because neither the defendant
nor commonwealth was in a position for
a hearing. So Metzger was committed
to jail for another hearing.
When Mrs. Metzger saw her son she
cried bitterly and said: "O, my poor
boy, he would have better been dead
than in this condition." lie turned to
her and said: O, mother I am very
sick." lie was asked if he had anything
to say about the case and replied in a
weak voice: "I don't want to talk
about the shooting at this time."
He was asked where he had been since
lie left and gave, a disconnected account
of going from Wilkcsbarre to Philadel
phia, then out to Youngstown, ()., where
he worked in a boiler shop three months.
The rest of his time lias been spent in
wandering over the country. He was
in Wllkesbarro three days ago, but did
not go near his homo, and only spent a
few hours in the town. lie had only
been in Mauch Chunk a short while.
He told Constable Lauth ho did the
M shooting, and tiiis confession may result
in saving Bowman's life, for he was con
victed chiefly on the assertion of the
Arabian who escaped and swore that
Bowman shot his companion.
Coal I.a ml Values Kg v inert.
The Carbon county commissioners,
who have been sitting as a board of tax
revision for the past two weeks, have
completed their labors, with the result
that the valuations of coal lands in the
county are over #2,000,000 higher
than in former years. The coal com
panies interested have been notified of
their rating, and September 7 is fixed as
tin* date on which they will be given an
opportunity to be heard in their own be
half. The proceeding is similar to that
in Schuylkill county of three years ago,
when the valuation of coal lands in that
county was increased by about #11,000,-
000.
It has been a notorious fact that, com
pared with other property, coal lands
have been rated remarkably low. Lands
that are known to have veins of coal be
neath their sirrfaee over 100 feet in depth
were assessed for #175 an acre. Other
lands valued at #I,OOO an acre wore as
sessed at #IOO an acre, and some even
less.
The commission engaged experts on
coal valuations and they have made a
revision that they think will withstand
any opposition that may be brought
aganist it. The following is a list of
the companies affected and the increase
of each:
Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company,
Increase #494,072.
Lehigh and Wilkesbarre Coal Com
pany, #97,318.
The Lehigh Valley Coal Company.
#95,257.
The Lehigh Valley Railroad Company,
#154.217.
The New York and Lehigh Coal Com
pany. #30,438.
A* S. Van VYicklc & Co., #100,754.
Coxo Bros. fc Co., #08,773.
The Evans Mining Company, #3,000.

Shooting Affray at Ifu/.letoit.
There was a family quarrel at Ilazle
ton on Monday night. The victim i>
Mrs. George and her assailant
is her husband. Chisnull was at one
time the champion live-mile runner of
t lie state, and is well-known throughout
the country. For several weeks he has
been drinking heavily. lie went to work
oil Mondry in the mines, and came home
at quitting time, seemingly in good
spirits. His stepson, Nick Victor, en
tered the house some time afterward.
It seems that Chisnell entertained some
hard feelings toward the latter. After
washing himself, Chisnell picked up his
mining clothes and took a revolver from
liis pocket, at the same time remarking
that he might as well settle the matter
at once and made a dash for Victor.
The woman came between them at
this juncture and as she did so the pis
tol discharged. A second shot rang out
and Mrs. Chisnell dropped to the. floor.
The would-be assassin made his escape
in the excitement, but surrendered him
self four hours later, lie has been com
mitted to the county jail. The woman
was shot in the thigh, but is not danger
ously wounded. Chisnell says he was
drunk at the time.
A Delicate Operation.
From the Ha/.lcton Standard.
I*. M. lfoylc, mine foreman at the
llazle Mines colliery, had a delicate
operation performed on Tuesday morn
ing. Over three years ago. while des
cending the slope at Drifton in a car,
Mr. Boyle slipped, and in trying to re
cover himself, his right hand came in
contact with a lead pencil in his pocket.
The point of the pencil, over a quarter
of an inch long, entered the palm of his
hand. A physician attempted to remove
the point at the time, but was unable to
accomplish it.
Mr. Boyle suffered considerable pain
during the past week and decided to ]
make another effort to have the point
removed. He presented his case to Dr.
Gay ley, who after probing found the
mischievous piece of lead and extricated
it.
Colliery SuHpendH 1 nilefiiiitely.
The Nelson shaft, one of the largest
mines in the anthracite coal fields, has
shut down for an indefinite period on
account of the low prices of coal, and
900 men and boys, most of whom live in
West Shamokin, have been thrown out
of employment. Operations will not be
resumed until there is a decided increase
in the selling price of coal. All of the
mules have been hoisted from the mine,
and all dead work lias been stopped.
The colliery is operated by J. .1. Lang
don & Co., of Elmira, N. Y.

FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, AUGUST 22, 1595.
TEACHERS APPOINTED.
Iloroiißli Directors l'rovirto Experienced
Instructors for Twelve Schools.
All the members of the borough school
board were present at the meeting held
on Monday evening. The purpose of
the meecting was to appoint teachers
for the coming term and to transact such
other business relating to the new school
building as might come before 1 he board.
President McCarthy appointed Messrs.
Tlinony. Unto and Ferry as a committee
to confer with J. I). Myers, who was
given the order to furnish the seats and
desks for the new schools, in regard to
the amount of furniture to be purchased.
It was decided that the new school
building shall be known as tiie Eckley
B. Coxo School, and the president was
authorized to have a marble slab with
the name inscribed placed on the build
ing.
President McCarthy stated that a cen
sus of the borough recently taken for
the purpose of ascertaining the number
of school-going children, showed that
there are over seven hundred who will
attend the public schools this year.
The president called attention to the
necessity of providing ample accommo
dations for the children, and suggested
the advisability of establishing a suffi
cient number of schools.
Director Rutc moved to establish nine
schools, but the motion failed for want
of a seconder. Mr. Welsh then offered
a motion to create twelve schools, which
was seconded by Mr. Timony. The mo
tion prevailed, all voting for it, except
Mr. Bute.
The board decided to award the con
tract for painting the new school build
ing to A. A. Bachman for #97.
The appointing of teachers was then
taken up, and resulted as follows:
Misses Tillic Lindsay, Nellie Gillespie,
Kate Timony, Bella McGill, Bid Mc-
Laughlin, Kate Rogau and Mrs. S. M.
Denneny; Messrs. John D. Ilerron, Ed
ward F. Ilanion, George McLaughlin,
John F. Mcßrierty and Win. J. Schmidt.
Mr. Ilerron was elected principal of
the Ridge street school and Mr. Ilanion
principal of the Washington street
school. Their salaries were lixed at #6O
per month. Mr. Mcßrierty was assign
ed to the new building, Mr. McLaugh
lin to the old and Mr. Schmidt to Bir
vanton. at salaries of #SO per month.
The salaries of the female teachers wore
lixed at #4O each per month, but no as
signments were made.
An eight-months' term was agreed
upon.
The board adjourned until this (Thurs
day) evening to meet the teachers and
hear their recommendations 011 text
books.
DRIFTON ITEMS.
Somebody is playing tricks on the
electric car raotormen. A few ovenings
ago a suit of old underwear was filled
with straw and laid across the track.
As the car dashed towards the object
the motorman's heart gave a jump ami
lie almost upset the car by the sudden
stop, not wishing to kill what 110 thought
was a human being. This is somebody's
idea of a joke, and goes to prove that,
the foolkiller can find work here if lie
calls.
A large crowd of young fellows got to
gether the other night and organized a
drum corps for the purpose of serenad
ing a young couple, whom they heard
had been married on the q. t. Such
was not the case, still the drum corps
paraded up to the house of the supposed
groom, and played some very nieo selec
tions. Tho music was not a bit appre
ciated by the family, and the serenade
was labor lost.
It would lie advisable for the fathers
and mothers of town to prevent their
children from promenading up and down
the road between Jeddo and this place,
011 what is known as "Lovers' Lane."
Tho language used in that locality by
the elements which congregate there is
not going to improve the morals of our
rising generation.
The Children of Mary Society hold a
picnic over at St. Ann's church Tuesday
afternoon. The happy crowd spent a
pleasant day until 5.30 o'clock, when
they partook of a palatable supper fur
nished by the Sisters of Mercy.
Miss Rose Carr returned home last
evening, after spending a few weeks
witii friends at the county seat.
Miss Mary A. Malloy returned home
011 Saturday after a throe weeks' visit at
Ilazleton.
Mrs. John L. Sullivan, of Philadel
phia, is the guest of Mrs. John Curran.
Miss Maggie Harkins is visiting at
Norristown this week.
Miss Katie Gillespie is visiting friends
at Mahanoy City.
Mrs. Edward O'Donnell callod on
friends at Wilkesbarre 011 Monday.
Mrs. John Carr is spending a few days
with friends at Yorktown this week.
Here on Monday Next.
Leon W. Wash burn's great allied shows,
big three-ring circus, museum, menag
erie and hippodrome are to exhibit hero
Monday, August 26. It lias a large corps
of riders, leapers, jugglers and acrobats,
together with trained beasts, well-select
ed menagerie and some most exciting
hippodrome races. It is said to lie an
excellent show and leading papers are
loud in their praises of it.
Extensive Caveln at£Luzerne.
Quito an extensive and disastrous
cavein lias begun in Luzerne borough.
Tho region affected is over the old
Hutchison workings and in what is now
tho Haddock mine, although at present
tho caving part of tiie colliery is not
being worked. Tho displacement is
about one hundred feet in diameter and
thirty feet deep, and is still settling.
Five houses and lots adjoining are badh
affected, three owned by John Holmes
and two by S. A. Morton. Immediately
after the first settling the occupants of
the five houses moved out. Tho resi
dents in close proximity feel very shaky
and are preparing to move.
The ground supporting the houses
owned by.John Holmes and John l'ryde,
William Harbster and Mrs. Knarr is
gradually going down. Tho kitchens of
all throe of the houses are torn off, and
have gone down a distance of about fifty
feet in a hundred feet of water. The
property owned by Samuel Morton start
ed to give way and in a short time the
house was ail racked to pieces from tiie
jar of the cracking of the ground. The
people believe that the pillars have been
robbed.
The cave ruins some of the property
and greatly depreciates that adjacent to
the affected region. The loss will run (
up into the thousands. It does not af
fect the operation of Haddock's mine, as
the cavein is in an abandoned working.
Paid a Fraternal Visit.
From the Ilazleton Plain Speaker.
Major C. B. Coxo Post, No. 174, G. A.
It., of Freeland, paid a fraternal visit to

eighteen, were led into the post room by
John Wagner. All address of welcome
was made by Comrade Thomas Monroe,
followed by an address by John Wagner,
of Freeland. "Barbara Fritchio" was
recited in an able manner by Comrade
Christ, of Minersville Post, No. 17. Sev
eral other addresses were made by the
members of Post 20, and Mr. Oliver, of
C. B. Coxo Post, gave a description of his
travels in Egypt, stating how the Egyp
tian soldiers honored him when they
learned that ho Had been an American
soldier. He was taken through their
camp 011 a camel guarded by a corps of
soldiers. At tlio adjournment of the

Elected State Delegate**.
Delegates representing several of the
election districts of the fourth legisla
tive, district met at Ilazleton on Monday
afternoon, to elect two delegates to the
Democratic state convention at Wll
liamsport 011 September 11. Chairman
Breihof presided and Secretary Ilanion
recorded the proceedings. The nomina
tions for delegates were L. G. Lubrccht
and C. Held, of Ilazleton, and Edward
O'Donnell, of Harleigh. Messrs. Lu
breclit and O'Donnell were elected. A
resolution was adopted calling upon tin*
state convention to nominate a complete
ticket for judges of the superior court.
No Pay for Deputy Constables.
The deputy constables of the county
are up in arms against tho commis
sioners, who, through their attorney,
have refused to approve their bills for
service in various cases during tho past
month. County Solicitor Moore says
that he will not sanction the paying of
any constublo who is not regularly
elected by the people. Most of the
deputies are deputized by the aldermen
and justices of tiie peace and are not
under any bond. Mr. Moore thinks the
law will uphold him in his course.
