FREELAND T VOL. VIII. NO. 80. SHAFFER IS ON TRIAL WILKESBARRE MOUNTAIN MURDER AGAIN IN COURT. Conflicting Statement h and ConfeaHionn Made by the Prisoner InvewtH the Trial With Unusual Intercut—Much Difficulty iu Securing a Jury. Frank Shaffer, who is charged with Nelson Miller and the others with com plicity in the blowing up of the Hunga rian shanty on the Wilkesbarre moun tain over a year ago, was placed on trial at the county seat on Tuesday and the case is still oif. Judge Bennett is pre siding. The case is one of the most interesting ever tried in the county, as Shaffer, who is now on trial, has told several different stories, all of which conflict with previ ous confessions on the stand in the Mil ler case, when he went down in front of tho jury box and illustrated how he had pulled the battery which sent tho de ceased foreigners to their death. He was so clear on that occasion and his evidence on the whole was so well moulded together that there was no doubt as to the guilt of all parties ar rested. His last statement, however, if given in good faith, will make a deal of change in the situation. It is said that Shaffer's mind has become unbalanced since the commis sion of tho crime and that he is constant ly brooding over the affair. His ap pearance in court would seem to cast some doubt about that, as ho is bright and cheerful and does not appear to be affected by the circumstances under which he is placed, but on the contrary he appeared to be unconcerned. None but the attorneys, jurymen and witnesses are allowed to enter the court room, but tho corridors are crowded with citizens anxions to get a peep at the prisoner. The task of selecting a jury was an arduous one, all the day being taken up. tho last juror being selected at 5.80 p. m. on Tuesday. The jury is as follows: James Gil bride, Ilanovor; A. W. Washburn, Froe land; Nathan Morse, Ilughestown; tleo. Bomboy, Kingston; Alfred Ashford, Wilkesbarro township; Daniel Lloyd, Edwardsvillc; Win. Krotho, Plymouth; A. li. House, iiiack Creek; W. 11. Frace, Newport; John B. Boylo, W. n. Conyng liani and Jacob Schappert, Wllkesbarrc. Tho case is expected to occupy several days, and some startling testimony is looked for. Liquor License Revenue. County Treasurer Reed has finished the work of apportioning the money re ceived in payment of liquor lieeuses granted at tho recent term of license court. Tho number of licenses issued of each class and the amount received is as follows: 950 retail licenses, 3208,- 050; 71 wholesale licenses, 319,400; 42 bottlers' licenses, 39,000; 5 brewers' li censes, 32,200; total amount received, 3239,350. Of this total the amount re ceived from wholesale, bottlers' and brewers'licenses goes to the state. The amount received from retail liconses is divided between the county and the lo calities in which the houses are situated, tho county receiving one-fifth or 341.730, and the localities four-iiths or 3166,930. Tho statement showing the amount to be received by Freoland was published in tho THIIIUNK a week ago. In tho number of retail licenses grant ed there are some interesting compari sons. Freoland is fifth on the list, with 57 to its credit. Wilkesbarro is first with 135; Nanticoke second, 78; Ilazle ton third, 66, and Plymouth fourth, 62. In the wholesale list Wilkesbarro is first, having 13; Hazle township is sec ond with 7, and Freoland, Hazleton, Nanticoke and Plymouth each have 6. Hazleton leads in the number of bot tlers, with 15; Hazle township is second with 9; Freoland is third with 0, and West Hazleton has 1. Out of the 42 li censes granted to bottlers in tho county 31 are in the four communities men tioned above. Of tho money paid for retail licenses tho following amounts will be returned, loss tho treasurer's commission: To Butler, 3699; Conyngham, 360; Foster, 3840; Freoland, 36,840; Ilazle, 31,500; Hazleton, 326,400; White Haven, 31,200; West Hazleton, 31,H00. llewarc of Ointments for Catarrh that contain mercury, as mercury will surely destroy tho sense of smell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through the mucous surfaces.

Burgess McLaughlin had an interest ing case before him on Tuesday even ing. John Chekak, a Ridge street Hun garian, owned a vicious cur which gave the neighbors much trouble, and a few days ago James Gallagher, a young boy from the Hill, was bitten by the brute. Complaint was made to the burgess, who notified Chekak to have the dog killed. This he refused to do, and on Tuesday evening he was arrested for violating the borough ordinance pertaining to dogs. The evidence against Chekak was suf ficient and he was fined $7.75. The dog had followed his master with the officers to the borough building and was an in terested spectator. After Chekak's case was finished the burgess ordered that the dog bo shot immediately. To this Chekak objected, the dog also objected and between the two the order was car ried out with no small amount of trou ble. A rope was finally fastened about the animal and he was taken to the lockup, where High Constable Mollick sent seventeen shots into his hide, there by ridding the town of one of the many dangerous curs which travel our streets. Rurnted Dam at White Haven. At White Haven on Tuesday the Le high river was unusually high and the large storage dam owned by the Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company was so weakened by the great weight of water that it burst at 10 o'clock. It went out in the centre, making a great hole throught which rushed an immense volume of water. The loss will reach fully $50,000. The dam was built sixty years ago, was 50 feet high, 800 feet wide and held the waters of the Lehigh for one and one-half miles. It was originally used for slack water navigation of the Lehigh Coal and Navi gation Company. The dam supplied tho whole town of Whito Haven with water, power to the electric light plant and also to Wallace's machine shop. The many uses for which the dam was utilized will make the loss a very serious one in White Haven. Poor Director Organized.
