SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
EDITOR TKIHCNK. —An answer to the
noble reply of the highly educated wri
ter, in regard to his insulting answer to
the article under "Special Correspon
dence." He says: "One magnanimous
advocate of our borough's advancement
takes exceptions to several articles writ
ten by mo in reference to improvements
on some of our streets," and so on, "in
an unconnected communication," as his
narrow mind sees it. Also, he says:
"He represents himself, 'Mark You.'"
Now, my dear broad-minded educator,
your mind must be very much deranged
or lumpy, when you forget that a little
over a week ago you gave me the name,
as you say, "Mark You," which I can
show to you in your greatly excited ar
ticle.
Also you say in your insulting writing,
"this disinterested hero in his scattered
article says*' so and so. My article, Mr.
Educator, is to be seen yet right in the
TIUHUNK. I consider myself not educat
ed to fight you in paper communica
tions, as I am not a scholar in the Eng
lish language. All 1 have I picked up
by my own study, but remember that
when you say that I give the name or
represent myself as '"Mark You," you
tell a willful untruth. I answered you
in the name you put on to me.
When you say "this disinterested
hero," you are again leaving yourself in
the same position. I tell you right now
I pay to our borough treasury in taxes
(special, property and occupation tax)
more money in one year than you pa)
in twenty years. How could Ibe disin
terested?
You certainly take great Interest in
j opening Laurel street, as you call it, be
cause it is to your advantage. About
showing the public in your article, the
proper authority had passed to open
said street and all of them. I know be
fore we got there that it was all made
up. The gentleman who never says
anything outside in regard to council
matters had given it away and gave me
a tearing out before we met at the
council room.
You may soon have the privilege of
tilling my chair in that honorable body,
then you will have it all your own way,
if the citizens and taxpayers submit to
such actions as are going on now.
Hoping that if this article is not illus
trious enough for yon, please take the
meaning out of it and 1 think it will
pass. Do not say that I am afraid or
have not manhood enough to put my
name to it. My name is L. Winter, but
I have answered you by the name you
put on me in your own article. I would
like to give you a little more on this
business, but my time is too short to
day. " L. W.
School Itourd Meeting.
The borough school board held a regu
lar meeting last evening, Directors Mc-
Carthy. Ferry, Welsh, Timony and Itute
being present. Misses Lindsay, (iilles
ple and McHill were assigned to teach
in the old building, and Misses Rogan.
McLaughlin and Timony and Mrs. Don
neny were placed in the Coxe Memorial
School. Principal llerron recommended
a list of supplies necessary for the new
schools, and a committee was appointed
to confer with the teachers and adopt
the material.
President McCarthy suggested that
the Coxe Memorial School be opened
with a demonstration, and stated that
the party who would present the flag
would also present a pole. It was de
cided to dedicate the new building on
Friday, September 20, and invite (Jover
nor Hastings and Judge Rice to partici
pate. It was also decided to invite Ed
mund Coxe, son of the late Brinton Coxe,
to unfurl the flag. Messrs. Welsh, Rute
and Timony were appointed a committee
on Arrangements.
The schools in the old building and at
Blrvanton were ordered to bo opened on
Monday next, in order to allow the
teachers to effect an organization for
the dedieatorial ceremonies.
The board decided to insure the new
building and furnishings witii Mrs. S.
10. Hayes, for §5,000 for one year.
The following bills were paid: TRI
MS K, publishing proposal notice, 50
cents; Progress, publishing notices, §2.50;
Press, publishing notices, §4.40. The
payment of the bills occasioned consid
erable discussion, owing to the differ
ence in the rates charged, and the presi
dent stated that if the board continued
to squander money ho would not be a
party to it, and that he would not sign
the orders to pay the bills.
Ex-Tax Collector Fairchild presented
a list of taxes amounting to §l2, which
ho requested to be exonerated from col
lecting. The list was ordered to be re
turned on the ground that the present
board had not the power to exonerate
him, and Mr. Fairchild was given notice
to settle Ills duplicate at once.
President McCarthy reported council
having agreed to extend the sewer out
Luzerne street. A motion made to ap
point a committee to make connection
with with the new school failed to carry
for lack of votes. No further action
was taken on the sewer question until
Councilman Nouburger called attention
to the board's indifference to the matter,
and said that the expense council had
incurred should bo appreciated ami prn
litted by. It was then decided to connect
the new building with eight inch pipe,
and Messrs. Ferry, Rutc and Welsh were
appointed a committee to look after the
work.
At this stage of the proceedings Presi
dent McCarthy stated to the directors
that lie had become tired of the manner
in which they conducted their business,
and of their policy of paying for work at
prices above current rates, and said
that he had concluded to resign from
the board. He then tendered his re
signation to take effect as soon as his
successor would be appointed. The re
signation was not acted upon.
The board agreed to pay Contractor
Cunnins §SOO and then adjourned.
The best is the cheapest in the end.

shoes all wear well.

FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1895.
JAILED THREE ROBBERS.
They Stole (iooiln at I.nttimer ami Were
('aptured at Free I a ml.
Thomas Black, Richard O'Neal and
Patrick O'Keofe wore the names given
by threo suspicions looking characters
who were arrested early on Monday
evening by Burgess McLaughlin and
Constable Qulgley. They were placed
in the lockup and when searched a
quantity of underclothing was found in
their possession. Later in the evening
it was learned that they had been seen
offering underwear and stockings foi
sale at several houses in town. The)
had called at the residence of Evan
Wood ring, Ridge street, who suspectec.
them and notified the police. A furthei
investigation was instituted and more ol
the goods were found. It was alsi
learned that a freight car lying on a
siding near the Lattimer company stort
was broken into and some goods stolen
on Sunday night.
On Tuesday morning 0. B. Brundage.
of the Lehigh Valley detective corps.
Coal and Iron Police Hampton and
Cook, and A. S. Evert and Fred Lewis,
of the Lattimer store, came to town and a
warrant was sworn out by Mr. Evert, as
the representative of Pardee Bros. The
prisoners were taken before Squire
Buckley. They all pleaded not guilty,
but witnesses were furnished who saw
the men at Lattimer on Sunday, and
others who saw them selling the goods
hero. In default of ball the threo were
hold for court, and were taken up by
Constable Quigley and Oflieer Mollick.
Besides what they carried each of the
trio had prepared himself for winter by
donning from three to live suits of flan
nel underwear and as many pairs of
hose. One of the strongest proofs of
their guilt is the finding in the freight
ear of old underwear and stockings,
three outfits, which correspond tolerably
well with the sizes and appearances of
the men. They claim to have purchas
ed part of the goods from a peddler and
found the balance in the brush. The
value of the amount taken is placed by
the company at slo,'l, and less than one
third of the stock was recovered.
Two of the prisoners at least. Black
and O'Kcefc, are likely old offenders, as
the jail warden greeted them familiarly
when they entered that institution.
The two named put llazleton down as
their residence, and O'Neal claims to
hail from Manayunk. O'Koefe, how
ever. was recognized here as a fellow
who unhitched cars in No. 2 slope.
Highland, about three years ago. lie
worked there under the name of Calla
han.
Their case will be presented to the
grand jury this week, probably today.

There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than nil other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and prescrib
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment, pro
nounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to bo a constitutional
disease and therefore requires constitu
tional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
euro on the market, it is taken in
ternally in doses from ten drops to a
teaspoonful. It nets directly oil the
blood and mucous surfaces of the sys
tem. They offer ono hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials. Address.

The Miirkle Family In a Big Stilt.
On Monday thoro was Mod in court b\
ex-Judge Rhone, George T. Bispham and
J. B. Woodward, attorneys for George
B. Marklo, Alvin Markleand their sister.
Clara, a bill in equity against E. 1\
Wilbur, John Marklo, the executors o!
General Lilly and others, charging that
the latter are wholly excluding the for
mer from any lot or part in the manage
ment of the extensive Jeddo mines ol
George B. Marklo & Co., of Jeddo. The
bill also charges gross mismanagement
by John Markle as manager, involving a
waste to the firm of large sums of money.
Outside of the parties composing the
tinil the outcome of the case will b
watched with much interest, becaus<
t in' suit will settle the right of a majority
in a firm to continue to manage a firm
property. The hill calls for an account
and paying over to the plaintiffs fund
wasted by the defendants, as the plain
tiffs allege, to the extent of a quarto)
million dollars.
Under the present management then
is such great friction, according to tin
bill, that the differences must be settled
by the courts.
