RHEUMATISM
Cured, says Mrs. M. Hill, of
GALETON, PENNA.
Probably there is no disease that in
flicts so much continuous pain as rheu
matism. When it becomes chronic
there are few so hard to cure. This
disease is caused by an impure state of
blood. The impurity consists of an
excess of lethic acid, and to drive this
acid from the blood is the object of all
rational treatment.
The medical faculty have found in
Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy,
:i certain and positive cure for this ter
rible complaint. Mrs. M. Hill, of
Galeton. Pa., says: "One year ago I
was taken with muscular rheuiatism.
My limbs were so painfull 1 could
scarcely walk - I determined to try
08. DAVID KENNEDY'S
FAVORITE REMEDY
amd before I had used the third bottle i
the pain was all gone."
Favorite Remedy cures chronic, acute
or inflammatory rheumatism; and in
diseases brought about by impure blood,
or an excess of acid blithe blood such as
urinary troubles, dyspepsia, constipa
tion. kidney or liver complaints, it is a
well known specific.

A l'leaiting Entertainment.
Notwithstanding the inclement wea
ther a large and attentive audience as

Tuesday evening, to witness the Kellogg
Bird Concert Company, which was given
to the Drifton children. The hall was
FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, MARCH 4, 1897.
lilied with little folks and many of their
parents. It is needless to add that they
were delighted with the beautiful stere
opticon pictures of about 100 different
birds, and as each picture was thrown
upon the canvas, Mr. Kellogg described
the habits of each, where it lives, and,
with the aid of his natural gift, repre
sented its song and call. These repre
sentations were as real as if the birds
were themselves chirping among the
trees. The pictures themselves were
excellent and the songs added greatly to
the pleasure of the evening.
Mrs. Kellogg added very much to the
entertainment in rendering several
beautiful solos and with Mr. Kellogg
duets, the favorite being "The Mocking
Bird."
The evening was a rare treat to the
children, and to all their parents. There
is no more attractive study than ornithol
ogy—the department of zoology which
treats of the structure, habits and class
ification of birds. The graceful forms,
movements and habits of the feathered
tribes have been celebrated in all ages
by poets and artists, and have furnished
the instructors of mankind with lessons
of wisdom. This admiration is not con
lined to the poet, the artist or the sage.
It is universal. Wherever human be
ings aro found the forms, the plumage,
the songs, the migrations, the loves and
the contests of birds awaken curiosity
and wonder.
The children showed their admiration
by repeated outbursts of praise, and all
left the hall rewarded and instructed
with the evenings entertainment.
Thanks, to the generous friends who
contributed towards this pleasure in
their behalf.
KxceHPlve Tolls Is the Trouble.
The monthly letter of the Anthracite
Coal Operators' Association for March
gives the following information as to
anthracite coal prices:
"The average prico of all sizes in De
cember was about $3..'11 at tidewater.
Of this the operator received $1.81), with
which to pay the cost of mining, royal
ties, insurance, the interest on his in
vestment in breakers, machinery and
other appliances, and the railroad took
$1.41 to transport the coal 150 miles,
giving it an average of 0.4-10 milles or
almost 1 cent per ton per mile on all
sizes. Prepared sizes sold for an aver
age of $3.71 and the freight charge was
$1.48. Pea coal sold for $3.01 and the
freight was sl.lO. Huckwheat sold for
only SI.BO and was charged $1.32 for
freight. The freight on the latter size
was only 35 cents less than on a coal
that sold for $3.7), or sl.Ol more at tide
water than was received fur the buck
wheat."
The association considers that the
carrying charges aro too heavy, and
that the railroads get too large a share
of the amount received for the Coal at
tide. It is pointed out that bituminous
coal is carried to market for from 2.10
to 4.50 mills per ton per mile. The let
ter goes on to say:
"If the anthracite carrying railroads
would give this fuel the average rate per
ton per mile given for bituminous coals,
say three mills, anthracite could be de
livered at tidewater for $3.35, or nearly
$1 less than at present. The high rate
now charged contrats the market, and
as a result the colleries can work only
150 to 175 days this year, whereas with
a lower freight the market would be
greatly broadened and could readily ab
sorb the output of 250 days' work, be
side furnishing this fuel to the consumer
at a much lower cost than at present."
I-.UI-K0 ltecjuptlons of WageM.
A cut in wages, to go into immediate
effect, has been announced on the South
Side by the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre
Coal Company. The bosses bear the
heaviest reduction. Those receiving
SIOO a month are reduced to $75, and all
other employes down to laborers are cut
in proportion, the latter from 00 to 80
tents a day. It is announced that the
Lehigh Valley Coal Company will make
a similar reduction.
The reduction was so severe on tho
company men, pa tellers and drivers that
they unanimously agreed to discontinue
work rather than toil for the beggarly
wages offered. The strike began yes
torday and is still on. Superintendent
Lawall is at Washington and until he
returns no change is expected. Several
men who refused to take strikers' places
have been discharged. It is possible
that the strike may oxtend to tho
miners employed by that company on
the South Side.
Content Over a Coininlnhlon.
At the last election two justices of the
peace were elected in McAdoo. Squire
Dailey was elected when tho town was
included in Kline township and has one
more yoar to serve, which will prob
ably deprive one of tho two men recent
ly chosen of a commission. Attorney
General McCormiek lias been consulted,
but his opinion that Mr. Dailey is en
titled to serve another year lias not
settled matters. The contest will be
carried to court.

SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
EDITOR TRIBUNE.—If you will again
allow mo. In its last issue, the Press, in
a labored article of a full column, again
writes about "the same person to whom
we had to refer in our last issue." It
does not seem to be such a compulsory
task, judging by the space taken, which
without doubt could have been devoted
to matter more remunerative to its
writer, and would have reflected to his
credit. At this rati; I may expect at
least two columns in his next.
It refutes nothing (simply, very simply,
indulges in the usual personalities, with
which 1 have nothing to do—leaving
them for tin; party for whom intended,
and he evidently would not stoop to
reply) hut contents itself by denying the
reference to the saloon, which I pre
sume; he evades by drawing the line at
the back extrance to the institution.
"The half has not been told." If the
other half were told it would not re
dound with credit to the Press.
But the worst feature evidently, and
one that hurts the most, is that those
Democrats (Mr. Bach man and Mr. Buck-
Icy) whoso election my first article urged,
were elected by Republican votes by the
largest majorities of any, proving that
the majority of voters were with the
writer in selecting the best men for the
taxpayers' interests.
I thank tho TRIBUNE for its courtesy
and will close for this issue, as there is
nothing in the Press which is worthy of
a reply, and remain,
A Life-long but Progressive Republican.
Destructive Cave-In at Wyoming.
One of the most disastrous cave-ins
which has ever occured in tin; Wyoming
valley took place on Monday night at
Wyoming, this county. The buildings
destroyed are the postoffice, residence
of Daniel Ellsworth, the Stark residence
and the house of John Durybyshire.
The houses of David Tofctcn, Charles
Towns and Mrs, Sperling were badly
damaged. The post office, tin; first
building affected, is twenty-live feet be
low the surface. It is a two-story frame
building and is nearely a wreck. The
people employed in it got out at the first
indication of the disaster. Then with j
great care they removed the letters, ,
stamps and money. The furniture, how
ever, could not be taken out.
The mine that is causing all the trouble
iu the Mount Lookout colliery of Hnip- I
son it Walk ins. one of the largest col- !
lierics in the valley. At the point where :
tho cavc-in is the first working is 1
900 feet beneath the surface, while'
other veins are being operated at 800 j
feet and 1,000 feet. Between this 000 j
foot vein and the surface is the quick- ;
sand, ion feet in depth, which occasioned
groat trouble at the time the Mount
Lookout shaft was being sunk.

Death of Dr. JoHeph F. (ialliißlier.
I)r. Joseph F. Gallagher, whose illness
has been noted several times during the
past year, died at the home of his
mother. Centre and Main streets, at an
early hour yesterday morning. Death
did not come as a surprise to his friends
and relatives, as the young physician
has been seriously ill for over a year
and within the past month the end was
momentarily expected. Mr. Gallagher
was in his twenty-fifth year and had
before him a future much brighter than
that with which the average man is
blessed at this age. lie was devoted to
his chosen profession and his rapid rise
in the medical ranks was proof that
! before many years he would have earn
ed an enviable reputation for himself.
Dr. Gallagher was born at Yorktown.
Carbon county, in 1872. With his
parents he came here at the age of four
years. His education was received in
the public schools of town, which was
supplemented with a preparatory course
at Bloomsburg normal school. Some
time was then spent as assistant in
Grover's drug store, after which he
entered Jefferson college, Philadelphia,
where he graduated with honors at the
age of 33 years. Nearly a year was
spent here as assistant to Dr. 11. M.
Neale, which position IK; relinquished to
accept a similar one at the Ashland
miners' hospital. He entered upon his
new duties full of vigor and ambition,
and was rapidly advancing ip skill and
experience when blood poisoning of the
stomach was contracted in some manner
a year ago and he found it necessary to
return home for treatment.
As his condition did not improve he
was advised to spend a few months in
North Carolina, among the pines of that!
state, which was done. The change
apparently did him some good, but a
permanent cure was not effected, and
last summer he visited the Adriondacks.
but received no lasting benefit from his
visit to the New York mountains. Since
his return home he lias received the best
of medical attention, but the disease
which was sapping the young life away
could not be overcdiuc.
The young man was held in high es
teem by all his acquaintances, and his
death is generally regretted. Besides
his mother, he leaves one sister. Mrs.
John B. Keenan, of Eckley; a half
brother, B. J. Mooney, Esq., of Wilkes
barro, and a half-sister, Mrs. John I'.
McDonald, of town. His father, Hugh
Gallagher, was killed by a mine locomo
tive at Highland on September .'to, 1890.
The funeral announcement appears in
another colum.
