A Strange Man's Death.
Tho police of Wilkcsbarro have a
mystery of considerable interest on their
hands. A man was found on the Kings
ton bridge in a fainting condition and
had just strength enough to say he had
come on a freight train from Strouds
burg and that somebody had hurt him.
He was taken to the hot pita!, where he
game his name as John Weinhart and
that lie was from Stroudsburg, where lie
had fallen from a bridge. This is all In
told. lie died in a few minutes.
The doctor divested Weinhart of his
clothing and on making an examination
he was surprised to liiul, besides a bad
wound on the forehead, a bullet wound
on the left side a little above the heart.
This was the cause of the man's death.
The dead man is about live feet eight
inches tall and weighed about lto
pounds. He was about 40 years of age,
lias a light brown or sandy mustache
and a beard of three or four weeks'
growth, which is slightly gray, lie is
somewhat bald. His clothing consisted
of an old dark coat and trousers, rough
shoes, slouch hats and two old shirts.
His appearance was that of a tramp.
Tho bullet wound gives rise to the be
lief that the man was murdered. Many
theories have been formed concerning
the case, one of which is that Weinhart
was a burglar, who was shot in an at
tempt to rob somebody. Another is that
he was shot bv some jailor in making
his escape from prison. County Detec
tive Eckert has taken charge of the case
and he will make an effort to probe the
matter to tho bottom.
Stand lt> Our Townsman.
Every citizen of Preeland, irrespec
tive of party aftiliatlons, who has a de
sire to see. l'rceland represented in the
courthouse at Wilkcsbarro, should cast
bis vote tomorrow for James .1. Maloy
for recorder. He is the only candidate
from this end of the county on any of
tin- live tickets that are on the ballot,
and while this alone should bring him
the united support of the lower end, il
should be remembered by Freeland and
Foster voters that a Freeland citizen
has never yet. held a county office in Lu
zerne. This is a chance, perhaps the
last for years, to give our town the stand
ing and prominence it deserves as one ot
the largest boroughs in the county.
Voters who take a pride in the town
ought not allow the opportunity to pass
to raise one of their number higher, es
pecially as our townsman, Mr. Maloy. is
a man who will till the position with
credit to himself and tho borough in
which he resides. Let Freeland voters
do their duty tomorrow by standing to
gether for their fellow-citizen candidate,
and they will have no reason to regret
1 heir action.
Contract fur Chair* Awarded.
The building committee of the Young
Men's C. T. A. 11. Corps awarded the
contract for chairs for the new opera
house last week. There were a number
of linns represented, with samples and
agents, at the meeting, and tho Thomas
Kane Company, of Chicago, of which
Jos. I). Myers is the local agent, receiv
ed the contract. There will be 301
chairs on the lirst lloor of the house,
and if arrangements can be made with
the architect and contractors to change
the plans of the balcony, about 250 more
will be placed in the latter part. Con
tractors Kindly & Fredrick are pushing
the brick work of the structure, and
the committee expects to have the build
ing advanced far enough to place tin
seats in position before the holidays.
of Schuylkill .Miner*.
The computation of coal prices by the
committee of tho Schuylkill Coal Ex
change fixed the rate of miners wages
for the last half of October and lirst
half of November at 11 per cent below
the basis. The Philadelphia and Read
ing Coal and Iron Company will pay at
the rate of 10 per cent below the basis.
It is claimed that the various raises in
coal prices were too recent to raise wages
above the minimum paid by the company
during the past few months.
Keniovi'd u Tumor.
A tumor was removed from the left
shoulder of Patrick Carr, of Upper Le
high, last week. The operation was
performed at his home by Dr. 11. M.
Neale, assisted by I)r. Cloud, and was
successful in every respect. The tumor
weighed about a pound and had five
large roots. Mr. Carr had been troubled
with it for three months past.

FREELAND, PA., MONDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1595.
JOHN TAYLOR DEAD,
lie Was One of the Prominent Officials
of the Lehigh Valley Company.
John Taylor, general traffic manager
of the Lehigh Valley Railroad, died at
his home at Bethlehem on Saturday
afternoon of paralysis, aged 03 years.
His death was not unexpected. Two
years ago he suffered his lirst stroke,
and upon recovery spent several months
in Europe. Feeling recuperated, lie
resumed work upon his return, and
enjoyed tolerably good health until
eighteen days ago, when he was again
stricken down. With his family at his
bedside he passed away, his death being
entirely peaceful. Mr. Taylor was born
of English parents in Wilkcsbarro,
January Hi. 1832, attended the schools
of the town and obtained a good educa
tion. He left home early, and sought
and obtained a position in New York
city, but desiring a more active life,
applied to L. F. Chapman, who had been
placed in charge of one of the engineer
corps engaged in the construction of the
Lehigh Valley Railroad, and secured De
position of rod in an. This was late in
the summer of 1853. Mr. Taylor re
mained with his corps until the road
was completed in September, 1*55.
Mr. Taylor's activity and affable man
ners made him many friends and at
tracted the attention of the manage
ment of the road and he was put in
charge of the station at Mauch Chunk,
the then northern terminus of the road,
where lie was installed as freight and
passenger agent, remaining there some
time, gaining steadily the confidence of
the officers. He was made general
freight agent of the company in 1802.
When the railroad began to spread and
a man was required to meet with the
freight agents of its various connecting
railroads and arrange freight and pas
senger tariffs, covering tin- entire coun
try. Mr. Taylor was selected without
hesitation as general traffic manager.
When the Reading leased the Lehigh
Valley the president, Mr. McLeod, made
it a condition that Mr. Taylor was to
remain in the service. Wlu-n the lease
fell Mr. Taylor returned to his lirst em
ployer and remained until his death one
of its most valued officers.
Mr. Taylor in 1858 married Miss Anna
Esser. of Mauch Chunk, daughter of the
late George Esser. From this union
came a family of three daughters and
six sons, who, with his wife, survive him.
Mr. Taylor continued to reside in Mauch
Chunk until the summer of 1891, when
he removed with his family to Bethlo
hem. In politics ho was an ardent
Democrat, in religion a Presbyterian.
The funeral will bo held on Wednesday
next at Ret) il (die in.
DRIFTON ITEMS.
Now that the company lias placed tin
plugs through town and obtained hose
and carriage, all that remains to be
done to place Drifton in line with other
enterprising towns is to got the young j
men together and organize a fire com- j
pany. A meeting should he called some
evening for that purpose, enroll a suffi
cient number of names and effect a per
manent organization. We have good
material lien- for a company, and some
instructions in connecting with the
plugs and uncoupling hose would soon
make good fire-lighters out of our young
men.
One evening last week while John
Potro was coming home from Freeland
he was met by some persons who struck
him a blow in the face which knocked
htm down. They then went through
his pockets and relieved him of S2O, all
he possessed. John is doing some quiet
detective work and expects to have his
assailants arrested.
Some person tried to gain an entrance
into Mrs. Rrinton Coxe's residence tin
other night, but were frightened off he
fore they succeeded.
Patrick McDemee, of Carbondalo,
spent a few days with his parents hero
last week.
Miss Rose Gillespie and Bernard Mo
bility, of Buck Mountain, were visitors
to town last week.
Evan Davis, one of Di ifton's residents
some years ago, was in town yesterday.
He is now a well-to-do hotel man of
Philadelphia.
SIOO Howard, SIOO.
Tho readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all its stages and that is
catarrh. Hall's catarrh cure is the only
positive cure now known to the medical
fraternity. Catarrh being a constitu
tional diseaso requires a constitutional
treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly upon the blood
nnd mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation of
the disease, and giving tho patient
strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its work.
The proprietors have so much faith in
its curative powers, that they offer one
hundred dollars for any case that it faiis
to cure. Bend for list of testimonials.

I opera bouse. Admission, 50 cents.
DisustrouM Fire at lintvcr Meadow*
Fin; broke out in the row of houses on
the south side of Berwick street. Beaver
Meadow, Thursday morning at a few
minutes past 7 o'clock which resulted in
the destruction of five double blocks,
making ten families homeless. A strong
east wind fanned up the flames which
spread from building to building rapidly
and unprevetited. The discovery of the
lire was made at a time when nearly all
the men of the village were entering the
mines to the various apartments when;
they are employed. To the few men left
to light the rapidly spreading flames a
greater portion of the town seemed
doomed. The fire orignated in the east
gable of the house owned by A. S. Van-
Wickle, occupied by Daniel Brogan.
The families thrown homeless by the
conflagration are: Daniel Brogan, Mrs.
John lteiss, .lames Brady, John Cole,
Daniel Davis, William Pottit, Mrs.
Ifemey, Patrick Dougherty, Peter Gil
lespic and Condy (iallagher. The Bro
gan family lost a large portion of their
furniture, while the remaining people
escaped with their goods, some of which
were slightly damaged. I n all the house
hold furnishings of seventeen families
were removed.
The two blocks occupied by Brogan,
Ueiss, Davis and Pettit belonged to A.
S. VanWicklc; the block occupied by
Gillespie and (iallagher was owned by
the former and the only one not fully
insured. The remaining two blocks
which were destroyed were the proper
ty of John Martyn, Sr. Tho origin of
the lire is unknown. The estimated loss
is about $5,000. with four-fifths insured.

Will lie Tested in Court.
The question as to whether deputy
constables arc entitled to fees for serving
writs, etc., is to IK; settled by process of
law On Friday a case stated was filed
by John Jennings against the county of
Luzerne. Jennings is a deputy con
stable and served certain writs for
Alderman Perkins, of Wilkosbarre. IB
presented his bill to the commissioners
and they, acting under the advice of
their attorney, refused payment on the
ground that they have no right to pay j
for such services except to regularly
elected constables. Attorney Mcflovern
i< for tin; plaintiff and County Attorney
Moore is for the county.
Fatal Ouarrul of Hoys.
As a result of a light between John j
Ivehoe and John White, of Pittston, the '
latter lies fatally wounded, and the
former is a fugitive from justice. They
arc aged 17 and 18 years respective!v.
and reside with their grandmother. On
Friday night a quarrel over domestic
affairs ensued and finally resulted in j
Kehoo stabbing White with a bread
knife in the hack. The wound is two
I inches deep and four inches long, and
tin; physicians fear the lung has been
cut. No arrests have; been made up to
the present.

A CHEERFUL OUTLOOK.
ENCOURAGING REPORTS FOR THE
LUZERNE DEMOCRACY.
The County Committee Deceive* AHMUT
ances from All Part* That a Heavy
Vote Will He Foiled Tor Ihe Straight
Democratic Ticket Tomorrow.
The visitors to the headquarters of
the Democratic County Committee during
the past week saw and heard much to
encourage and inspire to energetic and
cheerful effort during the closing days
of the campaign in order that as large a
majority as possible may be rolled up
lor the nominees of the party on Tues
day next. One would be, says the
Wilkosbarre Leader, emphatically im
pressed with the conviction that victory
is assured and that all that now remains
to he determined is the size of tin; major
ities by which tho candidates shall be
honored. Tho enthusiasm that prevailed
was contagious and everyone present
became thoroughly inoculated, so that
harmony and good feeling were happy
characteristics of the meetings of the
committee.
Every attendant had something en
couraging to report from his bailiwick;
the prospects of the Democratic candi
dates, they said, were continually
brightening; there are no sulkers any
where; all are working hand in hand
and earnestly for victory at the polls,
and there arc tho most gratifying condi
tions everywhere. On the other hand,
the discontent and disaffection inspired !
in tho Republican ranks by the disap- I
pointiiients of convention day, and j
the apathy and open revolt that follow- :
ed Immediately upon them, has been '
and is continually growing and there is
in many localities a disposition on the
part of many of the Republicans to let
their candidates take care of themselves.
In short, there is everything to encour
age and cheer the Democracy, while tne
enemy is in tho dumps, disheartened by
the prospects of impending defeat and
careless and absolutely indifferent as to
tho result of the; final contest on elec
tion day.
It is witli this hopeful and altogether j
inspiring outlook that the Democratic I
party workers enter upon the closing 1
days of an admirably conducted and 1
thoroughly effective campaign, and their 1
reward will come with the handsome j
victory that is to be heralded abroad on
the morning of the sixth of November—
a victory which shall completely rout
the Republican forces and swing old Lu
zerne back into tin; Democratic lines,
when; she rightfully belongs and from
which slit; would never have departed,
except through the disreputable and de
moralizing influences that have in tin
past cut such a prominent figure in Re
publican manipulation of affairs politi
cal. but which are fast losing their
power and can no longer be depended
upon for results at all satisfactory.
Honest candidates and honest methods
are the winning features in the present
campaign, and without them a political
party is utterly without hope—the sorry
condition in which the Republican party
finds itself today.
COTTON NOT PROMISING.
Statement by the Prexldeut of American j
Cotton Growers' Association.
The following address was issued at
Galveston, Tex., by Dr. D. Lane, presl- j
dent of the American Cotton Growers' !
Protective association, to the southern
cotton growers:
"The crop is nowhere above and in
all save favored localities is below the
average. All possible causes, except
frost, have combined to produce this j
result, the causes varying with the lo- |
cality—drought, rust, boll worms, army '
worms, excessivo rains and shedding. !
It is generally three weeks late and in
such a condition that a frost at the av- t
erage frost date would be disastrous 1
and before that time a calamity. The
plant is nptably deficient in fruit and
tho bolls are small and badly devel
oped. From my knowledge of present
crop conditions I venture the opinion
that this crop cannot in any event ex
ceed seven million bales, while six mil
lion five hundred thousand bales is by
no means improbable."
llroad-Mindcd Leo.
When investigating the Vatican rec
ords Pope Leo XIII. said to Dora Gas
quet the librarian: "Publish every
thing of interest—everything, whether
it tends to the discredit or credit of tho
ecclesiastical authorities, for you may
be sure that if the gospels had been
written in our day the treachery of
Judas and the denial of St. Peter would j
have been suppressed for fear of scan- j
dull zing weak consciences." So Lord j
Halifax told the English Church union i
tho other day.
Tho Floral JSuglnong.
It is estimated that 30,000,000 roses
and 15,000,000 carnations are sold by
the New York florists every year, and j
that tho wholesale men get a profit of
$1,500,000 out of their business. Violets
rank third in popularity, and the lily of
the valley runs a good fourth.
