HAZLETON'3 FIRE.
Flames Did a Vent Amount of Damage
Karly Friday Morning.
One of the most disastrous fires in the
history of Ha/.leton occurred at an early
hour on Friday morning, when Haines
. * were discovered issuing from the rear of
A. .1. Haire's dry goods establishment.
Itissuposod that a spark from the arc
lamp dropped on a case of flannel and
the lire smouldered for an hour. Finally
• it developed into a strong bla/.e. and
despite th<' prompt response of the fire
department it was plain that they conhl
do nothing. The building, which is a
four-story brick, is known as Brill's
block, and is one of the finest in the city.
The First National bank occupied the
lloor next to Haire's store, and to save
this the efforts of the firemen were con
centrated.
The lire spread witii startling rapidity,
and for a time threatened the entire
square. Anion Wagner's double block
-•'in the rear caught fire and was partially
* destroyed before the llames were gotten
under control.
The loss to the Frill building is esti
mated at SO,OOO, fully covered.by insur
ance. A. .1. Haire's loss will foot up
$75,000; with an Insurance of $55,000.
The bank was damaged to the extent of
SI,OOO. but beyond a severe drenching
all documents were undisturbed. The
other losses are: Julius Ifyman, clothier,
stock damaged to the extent of $1,400;
Attorney Sharpless, $400; 1\ O. S. of A.,
SI ,OOO.
The families occupying the Wagner
building lost most of the household
effects. The damage to the Wagner
building was about $2,000.

jC. T. A. U. CONVENTION.
PREPARATIONS COMPLETE FOR THE
GATHERING THIS WEEK.
Delegates Representing Catholic Tem
perance Societies of Several Counties
Will Meet Here on Wednesday and
llold Sesnioas for Two Days.
ON Wednesday morning
iiext the fourteenth an
nual convention of the
HSm at ' lo^c Total Abstin
vll&fß cnco * n ' on °* Scran
ton diocese will convene
in tlio Grand opera house.
* Delegates, to tlio num
ber of 125 or more, will be present as
the representatives of the societies con
nected with the union, and will come
from all the loading cities and towns in
northeastern Pennsylvania. The Scran
ton union is one of tlio strongest, numeri
cally, that is connected with C. T. A.
Union of America, and its conventions
are usually of an interesting nature.
There are several important matters to
be considered at the coming gathering
which may affect the members and
societies, one of the principal of which
is the adoption or rejection of an insur
ance feature.
Tlio convention will bo formally open
ed at H), a. m. on Wednesday by Presi
dent John .1. O'Hara, of Parsons. Bur
gess Patrick McLaughlin will then de
liver an address of welcome to the dele
gates and visitors, and will bo followed
by the spiritual director of the union,
'lev. E. J. Molly, of Scrauton. The
morning session will In; devoted to the
appointment of the various committees
and arranging tlio preliminary details of
the business to be transacted. Promi
nent men in the movement will address
the delegates at tin's session.
In the afternoon the officials of the
union will make their annua) report of the
numerical and financial standing of the
organization, the number of societies
affiliated with the union, and a general
summary of the work performed by the
Board of Government since the last con
vention, which was hold at Carbondale
in May, 1805.
On Thursday morning at 8.30 the dele
gates will convene at the opera house
and proceed in a body to St. Ann's
church, where Rev. M. J. Fallihoo will
read a mass at 0 o'clock, after which
they will return to the opera house ami
resume their work.
Thursday's session will be devoted en
tirely to business, including the election
of officers, the chtodngi f delegates to the
national convention to be held in August
at St Louis, and the discussion and ac
tion upon several matters pertaining to
the temperance cause. All the sessions
ire open to the public free of charge.
The oilieers of the Scrauton diocesan
union are as follows: President, John
J. O'Hara, Parsons; first vice president.
P. F. McCoy, Scrauton; second vice
president, Miss Mary Barrett, Carbon
dale; secretary, T. W. Early, Green
Ridge; treasurer, P. F. McDonnell, Car
bondale; spiritual director, Itev. E. J.
Melly, Scrauton. These officers form
what is known as tiie Board of Govern
ment, and are the guardians of the
union's affairs between conventions.
The Young Men's C. T. A. B. Corps,
o town, will bo represented in the con
vention by its president, James F. Swee
ney, and J. .1. McMenamin and George
McLaughlin. Mr. McMenamin is a can
didate for delegate to tins national con
vention. His candidacy has been en
dorsed by the society of which lie is a
member, and his friends feel confident
that the delegates will choose him as one
of tlio three representatives from the
Scrauton union.
A reduced rate of one and one-third
cents per mile lias boon granted to the
delegates by all railroads. A special
train will leave Scrauton at 7.45 a. m.
on Wednesday, on tlio Dolaware and
Hudson Railroad, to bring the delegates
of tin* Wyoming region bore in time.
Too much credit cannot be given the
members of the Young Men's Corps for
their successful efforts in having the
convention held in Freeland. Tho ex
pense attached is necessarily great, but
this the society is willing to undergo in
order that tho town may be benefitted
so far as it lies in their power to attract
people here.
Tho business people, especially tin'
hotel men, should exert, themselves to
accommodate the visitors this week in
tlio best stylo possible, so that when
they leave Freeland they will go witii
pleasant recollections of our hospitality
toward strangers, thereby adding to the
good reputation which lias already boon
established by the town.
* During the Evenings.
Under the auspices of the Young
Men's Corns the Grand opera house will
be dedicatod on Tuesday evening. The
exercises include addresses by J. Wash
ington Logue, of Philadelphia, first vice
president of the national union, and
President O'Hara, of tho Scrauton
union. Parochial school children, tho
St. Patrick's cornet hand and local
talent will also participate and assist
in making the ontertaiment a credit
able one. A special car for those doslr-
J lug to attend the dedicatory exercises
FREE LAND, PA., MONDAY, MAY IS, 1890.
leaves Scrauton tomorrow at 4 o'clock,
arriving here at 7.12 p. in.
A ball in honor of tlio delegates at
tending the convention will be the fea
ture on Wednesday evening. Tho com
mittee having tiiis matter in charge feels
elated at tho success which lias
, attended its plans, and tiie hall is
I counted upon to eclipse any similar
event that lias been held in Freeland
for years.
DePierro's complete orchestra will
supply the dancing music, and nothing
that can add to the enjoyment of those
present will be overlooked. A first
class caterer lias been secured, and sup
per will be served in the spacious meet
ing rooms on tho third lloor.
May Unite Two Orders.
What was probably tho most important
, business transacted at the annual meet
ing of tlie Ancient Order of Hibernians.
Board of Erin, at Philadelphia last week,
was the adoption of a resolution to ap
point a committee of live who, with tin
national officers, shall make an effort to
meet a similar committee and the
national officers of the American Board
for the purpose of bring about unity.
The committee consists of J. J. Hagerty.
New York; William F. Berry, Jersey
City; F. F. McGrath, Ohio; Joseph Mc-
Laughlin, Philadelphia, and M. F. Mc-
Partland, Brooklyn. If tlio American
Board agrees, both sides will present
their grievances to a board of arbitra
tion, which will probably consist of
Archbishop Ryan, Bishop O'Hara, of
Scrauton, and Bishop Foley, of Detroit.
An election for officers resulted as
follows: P. .1. MeGarry, Chicago, national
delegate; John McWiiliaius, Green
Point, N. Y., national treasurer, and E.
R. lines, New Brunswick, N. J., national
secretary. New York city was selected
for the next national convention, to be
held on May, 1897.
The state convention will be held this
week at Carbondale.
Sliot ly a Desperado.
Centrallii was tlio scono of a shooting
affray on Thursday which resulted in a
murder. William Hepncr, proprietor of
the Central la House, was standing be
hind the bar of his hotel when Mike
Kerrigan, better known as "Cowboy
Mike," entered and demanded a drink.
Kerrigan had beon a source of annoy
ance about the hotel for some time past,
and Hepncr declared that lie would not
give him drink, with or without money.
Upon being refused Kerrigan drew a
revolver and before Ilepncr was aware
of liis Intentions Kerrigan shot him, the
bullet taking effect in his side in the
region of till! heart. Kerrigan firod
four other shots, but none took effect.
He then rushed into tlio street, carry
ing tlio smoking revolver in his hand,
lining a noted character no one attempt
ed to stop him and ho escaped. Kerri
gan was always known as a desperate
character. He is heavily armed and if
the officers overtake him he will give
thorn considerable trouble. Hepner
died.
Knights of Pythias Convention.
A convention of the Knights of
Pythias of northeastern Pennsylvania
was held at Wllkcsbarre on Friday. A
permanent organization was affected by
tiie election of ,1. I'. Williams, of Wllkes
barre, president, and Willis If. Faber,
of Wiillamsport, vice preside,nt. There
was a long discussion on tiio advisability
of creeling a home for indigent l'ythiaiis.
An executive commitee was appointed
to bring tlio matter before the. grand
lodge.
Harry .looes represented Silver Wave
Hodge, No. 242, of Frool&nd, in the con
vention.

Looking Up His Chances.
Deemer Beidleman, of Shickshinny,
who is one of tho leading Democratic
candidates for the nomination of county
commissioner, spent part of last week
here. He is making a splendid light for
the office, and denies tin? insinuations
that lie is out in tin interest of any
other persons or clique. He wants tho
office for himself, and promises to take
care of it in the manner which the law
calls for, instead of making it a private
grab-bag for self and friends, as some
others have done in the past.
Lehigh Valley's New Schedule.
The new Lehigh Valley time table went
■ into effect yesterday, and tlio changes
s made will be found in our advertis-

- county seal will go through Jicro at 7.58
s in the morning.
MAD DOG SCARE.
County Seat IteHidentM Have Trouble
With Their Caninett.
A mad dog caused great excitement
in the central part of Wilkesbarre 011
Friday. Tho dog was first seen by a
boy, Charles Nowsblglo. The dog snap
ped at him and the boy kicked him off.
but the animal jumped at him again,
tore his trousers and scratched his leg
enough to draw blood. Newsbigle than
tried to catch hold of him, but the dog
sank his teeth deep into hisfiosh, inflict
ing a painful wound.
Tho dog then ran down the street and
came upon William McCartney and
William Green. The young men tried
to get out of the animal's way, but the
dog jumped at Green and bit his hand.
He next jumped at McCartney, but the
latter kicked him off, suffering nothing
more than torn trousers. Mr. Green
hastened to the drug store and had his
wound cauterized.
Tlio dog resumed his journey down the
street and enmo upon a woman and a
child, at whom lie snapped viciously.
The next person the dog came in con
tact with was William Phoenix, a color
ed man. The dog sprang at him, biting
him upon the arm, and Phoenix seized a
fence paling and boat him off.
In tho meantime Green hastened to
his home, procured a revolver and
mounting his bicycle started in pursuit
of the dog. The young man overtook
him and ended jiis life.
In tho last few days some thirteen
people have been bitten by mad dogs.
At a special meeting of council that
night an ordinance was passed compell
ing owers of dogs to muzzle thorn.
I*ay of Aasintaot Aaae^dora.
The registration of school children
now being done by the assistant asses
sors of the severaf districts in tiie bor
oughs and townships of this state, while
it entails an additional amount of labor
on them, will not Increase their revenue,
but 011 tho contrary will diminish it in
nearly every district. Heretofore, they
have been paid so much per name for
Hie list of voters, as well as the names
of all births and deaths, together with
mileage to and from the county ■eat. j
By the recent act of assembly au.hoiiz- '
ing the registration of school children
this duty devolves upon tho assistant
assessor (if tho district is divided into
election districts), and the same must be
done in the spring assessment.
The Luzerne county commissioners
have decided that all this is Imt one as
sessment and must bo done all at the
same time. They have further decided
that the pay for tho same shall be $2
per day for each and every day tliey are
necessarily employed. This rate will
make the cost of the assessment, includ
ing all the additional work, less than
was paid before the school registration
law was passed. It is likely that some
assessors will refuse to abide by tlio de
cision of tlio commissioners, and will
carry tho matter into the courts.
A Blot Yesterday at McAdoo.
For some'weeks past tho Italians in
the vicinity of McAdoo have not gotten
along very well with their neighbors,
and of late several skirmishes took place
among the people in that vicinity. Dur
ing a ball game yesterday the trouble
broke out afresh, and from an alterca
tion between a small boy and an Italian
it grew rapidly into a full-fledged riot,
in which revolvers played a prominent
part.
The Italians, it is alleged, numbered
about 100, and nearly all were armed.
As soon as the fuss began they com
menced shooting into the crowd, and it
is known that at least ten persons were
more or less hurt. Fortunately, there
were none killed. A number of arrests
will be made.
A Yurdict for Powderly.
A verdict was rendered on Friday in
tho common pleas court of Philadelphia
against James 11. Sovereign, general
master workman, and tho general
executive board of the Knights of Labor
for $4,225.73, in favor of Torronce V.
Powderly, ox-master workman, who
claimed that amount for balance due
him for services as master workman of
tho order, Tho suit lias been pending
since Sovereign succeeded Powderly as j
head of the order.
