FREELAND TRIBUNE. VOL. VIII. NO. 87. FOUR DARING ROBBERS. POLICEMEN AND BURGLARS HAVE A FIGHT AT WHITE HANEN. East Munch Chunk Po*toffice Entered by a (lung Early Friday Morning-When Discovered They Hoarded a Freight Train—Two Were Shot and Captured. Four burglars broke into the post office at East Maueh Chunk early Friday morning. They were discovered, but escaped at the point of their revolvers, and two were wounded and captured in a light at White Haven. It was one of the most daring attempts at burglary and the most desperate resistance to arrest that has occurred in this region for many a day. The postoflico is next to the store of 11. A. Biichinan and is seperated from it with a thin wall. Tho burglars lirst gained eutranco to tlio store, cut their way through tho wall and then attacked tho big safe. They liad succeeded in breaking off the com bination of tho safe and wero prepar ing to drill when a lot of young people going homo from a ball heard the noise and gave tho alarm. in a few minutes sovoral young men had collected, but wero unarmed and made no attempt to arrest the men. The burglars escaped through a rear door, then dashed down the street, threatening the crowd with their revol vers, and succeed in hoarding a Jersey Central freight train which was passing through the town, northbound. Before the crowd could get sufficient courage to attack them they were out of danger. It was decided to telegraph to White Haven, the next point north, and all the other towns along the road that the train would pass through. When the I White Haven operator received themes- ! sage the freight train was due in half an hour. Fortunately the chief of police lived near the station. He was quickly aroused and set to work to get a posse". So well did he work that live minutes before the train was dim twenty men, many half dressed and not all of them armed, had gathered under his orders and lay in wait just below the town, where the train could be stopped on a clear track. It was decided to do this, as the robbers would have but little chance to escape if the train was once properly surrounded. As the train drew in it was (lagged and the engineer was asked if he had any men on the train. One of the brakemen said that four men who boarded the train at Mauch Chunk were about the middle of the train. The posse at once rushed toward the place designated, but the stopping of the train the noise of many voices had ap prised the robbers of what was going on, and as the men rushed forward they opened lire with their revolvers. The posse found shelter behind piles of ties and telegraph poles and then re turned the fire with interest, aiming at the flashes from the revolvers of the the burglars. Over 100 shots had been exchanged, but the lire of the burglars slackened and then stopped, and one of them shouted: "Wo give up; don't (ire any more." Fearful of some trick, the citizens ad vanced but slowly, and this gave oppor tunity for two of the men to escape. Although they were iired at and follow ed by several men they made good their escape and it is not known whether they were wounded or not. In the car two of the desperadoes were found, both seriously wounded. The first has two pistol wounds in his back, one of which seems to have pierc ed his kidneys. He has been too weak to give any information about himself. The other man has a ball in his chest „ and another in his arm. He remained conscious but sullen, and the only infor *imatinn that could bo got from him was that his name is Henry Ivoper. He will not sav where he lives and will give ab solutely no particulars concerning his comrades. When there was a lull in the shooting a ligure was seen moving on the top of the box car and when commanded to come down he did so. He said he was an actor and a member of the Empire Star Company, which has been playing in Mauch Chunk, and he was innocent of any connection with the robbers. Ho was retained, however, but later in the day was released. Three empty revolvers were found in the coal car, the latter showing the marks of over fifty bullets. An old stocking containing several sticks of dy namite was found in Use postoftico, to gether with two very line drills and some hammers, all making a lino col lection of burglars' tools. The wounded men were taken to Maucli Chunk and placed in jail. He ware of Ointment** for Catarrh that contain mercury, as mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through tin; mucous surfaces. Such artlclos should never be used except on prescriptions from reput fhble physicians, as the damage they will do is ten-fold to the good you can possi bly derive from them. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.. Toledo, 0., contains no mercury, and is taken internally, acting diroctiy upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. In buying Hall's Catarrh Cure bo sure you get the genuine. It is taken internally, and made in Toledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney fc Co. Testi monials free. (tjjTSold by druggists; price, 75c a bottle.

Last Thursday Nellie, the seven-year old daughter of Burgess McLaughlin, was bitten in two places on the arm by a dog on Walnut street. The little one's father was unable to learn whose dog it was, and on Saturday took the girl out with him in the hopes that they would meet the animal. The dog, after hitting the girl on Thursday, ran into the; sa loon of .Joseph Lutz, and there the bur gess called on Saturday, leaving the littlo one outside. Mrs. Lutz called her two dogs and when they arrived the burgess opened the bar-room door to call in Nellie. Immediately, the animal which was wanted darted out on the street and again attacked the child. Hearing her screams Mr. McLaughlin ran out and found the dog tearing vi ciously at the girl's clothes. He drew his revolver and shot the brute. The wound was not fatal, but with the as sistance f>f Daniel Feiler the animal was killed. Residents of Walnut street will feel a little safer since there is one canine less to bother them. Police lluid Vehicle*. Early Friday morning the police of Hazleton in company with a number of citizens made a tour of the city, and where they found a wagon or any other vehicle it was run to the city pound. Hy 4 o'clock in the morning all the streets in the vicinity of the city build ing were blocked with vehicles. The. owners supposed thievos had been at work and some even notified the police. A line of $0.50 was imposed for the release of every wagon and nearly 8150 was realized through the scoop. Few drivers got out with their teams in the morning because the wagons were gone, and business was tied up for awhile, the early delivery of goods being delayed until the fines were paid. The raid was the result of a recent proclamation by Mayor Altmillcr for bidding owners of vehicles to let them stand over night in alleys and side streets. Clave Hl* Life to Save a Girl. To save the life of a girl, Charles Fisher met a heroic death on Friday night. He was 18 years old and resided at Frackville, Schuylkill county. Fish er, in company with Mis* Bessie Wil liams, of Gilbcrton, John Burns and William Ryon, were walking on the Reading Railroad towards Girardville. The party stepped from in front of an engine to the. other track and in front of another locomotive which was bear ing down upon them. They saw their danger and Ryon and Burns jumped. Miss Williams was but a few feet from the engine when Fisher heroically and with a great effort pushed her safely off the track, but lost his own life. He"was ground to death under the wheels of the engine. Kuspen*ion at Several Collieries. All collerles owned and operated by the Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company throughout the Panther Creek valley, which includes Lansford and vicinity, closed down on Friday evening and will remain idle until May 4. This move on the part of the company is discouraging to the miners, who have only been aver aging about half time for several months. This will be the longest continuous sus pension that has occurred in the Panther Creek valley for a number of years. Upper Lehigh, Sandy Run and all col lieries which ship via the Jersey Central suspended operations on Friday and will not resume until next Friday or Monday. Alleged Ilelr of l'enn Want* Land. R. Penn Davis and his attorney are at the county seat looking up certain tracts of land which originally belonged to William Penn. Mr. Davis claims he is the nearest living rclaUvo to the great Quaker and says ho/ffls a great groat-great-great-grandson. V The land claimed by Mr. Davis is near Nanticokc and is a part of the Nunbury manor laid out by the Pen lis in the last century. Mr. Davis claims that he can from liv ing witnesses prove that lie is a great great-grandson of John Penn, and by documentary evidence that the latter was a grandson of William Penn. Want* 1)1100,000 Damage*. Joseph Stevenson, of Butler Valley, hy his attorney, John M. Carman, brought suit last week against the Jcddo Tunnel Company, the Markles, Pardee* and various other persons interested in t he Jcddo tunnel, for 8100,000 damages. The plaintiff was conducting a manufac tory of woolen goods 011 one of the small streams into which the mine water which is drained by the tunnel now empties and thereby destroyed his machinery by the action of the sulphor water and making the stream unfit for the. purpose of following his business. Interviewed Superintendent Smith. A number of Freeland business men had an interview 011 Friday afternoon at Drifton with L. C. Smith, superinten dent of tlie I). S. fc S. Railroad and the Coxe Iron Manufacturing Company. Mr. Smith assured them that the pros pects of increased work on the railroad and in the shops were never brighter, and that a marked improvement in the business of botli companies was expnet ed this summer.

The errors of the Travelers were made at times when they counted most, and this, coupled with the effective hitting of the Stars in the same innings, won the game for the latter.

James Passarello, James Carone, Joe Camorani and Michael Speri, the Hazle ton Italians who were tried for arson, were found guilty at Wilkesbarre on Friday. Passarello and Carone were convicted of robbery at the last term of court and were sentenced to five years in the penitentiary. If all tho cases are pressed against the gang they will spend the remainder of their lives in jail. When taken into court 011 Saturday for sentence T. R. Martin, attorney the defense, asked for leniency because two of the men, Passarello and Carone, were sentenced last week to five years in the penitentiary on another charge. Judge Woodward then addressed the prisoners as follows: "The crime of which you stand convicted, considering the manner of its perpetration, is one of the most atrocious, diabolical and in comprehensible that has ever been brought to the notice of an American court of justice. Impelled simply hy jealousy 01 a fellow-countryman whose honorable prosperity seems to have excited your envy, and kindled an un reasoning hatred, you conceive and exe cuted. so far as you were able, a plot to blow up his homo hy means of dynamite while he and Ills entire family, consisting of his wife, a child and two employes were wrapt in sleep. "The sentence we are about to impose will, wo trust, Impress all those who in the least degree are your sympathizers with the truth that here in America human life and the rights of property 1 are held sacred and zealously guarded j by the courts, whoso duty it is to ad minister the laws. "The sentence of the court is that each of you pay a fine of #4,000, costs and im prisonment in eastern penitentiary for twenty years, this sentence to begin at the expiration of a former sentence of five years imposed on Passarello and Carone." Coroner'* Jury Meet*. From the Hazleton Standard. The jury empanelled by Coroner Mc- Combs to inquire into "the death of j Angclo Dongola, met in the City build- j ingon Friday afternoon. Four witnesses were examined, tho most, damaging testi mony being adduced by the eight-year old son of the murdered man. He posi tively asserted that he saw "Shovel"' who is 110 one other than Andrew Annutz, fire the shot that killed his father. A boarder of the Anuutz's also gave some damaging testimony, but he evaded many important questions, which would ' seem to indicate that he knows more j about the occui rence fia- he really cared to reveal. His story of the affair was very much disconnected. The jury after examining the four wit nesses very closolv, adjourned to meet at 2 o'clock Monday afternoon. Eight witnesses still remain to be examined. Special Election to He Held. At a special meeting of the borough school board on Thursday tho commit tee 011 new building made its report. Tho committee had made investigations and inquiries regarding the kind of building that could be erected with the money obtainable, and reported in favor of erecting another school.

Judge Cool and Son Hurt. Judge Cool, aged 88 years, and his son. C. L. Cool, both of West Pittston, were quite seriously injured in Hazleton on Thursday evening. While driving from Beaver Meadow, Judge Cool's former home, to Hazleton, their horse became unmanageable and ran away, throwing out the occupants of tho carriage.
