Prom the Girardville Times.
The MaCauley-Patton Company, with
Dia Florence Campbell, will close their
two week's engagement at the Palace
thrcatrn today with a performance tliis
afternoon and evening. Our people
have been royally entertained by this
excellent company. Miss Campbell has
won tlio hearts of all and it is safe to
say she is one of the most thorough ac
tresses on the stage. She handles each
part in a clever and studied manner,
and will always be more than welcome
In our town.
MaCauley and Patton are both excep
tionally clever actors and deserve great
credit "for the masterly manneKin which
they manage their company. The com
pany. as a whole, is by far the best that
lias ever played here.

BEHIND WITH ITS WORK.
LEGISLATURE HAS SEVERAL BILLS
YET TO CONSIDER.
Time Was Idled Away in tlie Forepart
of tlie Session, and Many Measures
Will Not Receive Proper Discussion on
Account of a Luck of Time.
Harrisburg, Pa., May 7, 1807.
The legislature entered this week
upon the fifth month of the session and
there is no telling how long the session
will last, although it is pretty generally
bojleved that the middle of June will
see the end. There are now enough
Hills on tlie calendar to keep the mem
bers busy day and night for two months
at least. Had more work been done
during the. first two months the calendar
might have been cleared when the legis
lature adjourns; as it is, many good bills
w±ll never receive the attention duo them.
There are nearly 500 bills on the house
calendar for second and third readings.
Twenty per cent of those have come
from the senate. Resides there are
twenty hills awaiting firsi reading.
There are several important senate
bills in the house awaiting third reading
and iinai passage. The most important
house bills on this stage are those prohib
iting the discharge from public positions
of Union soldiers without a reasonable
cause and prohibiting tlie abolishment
of public offices oecupiod by Union
soldiers except for good reason; to pre
vent the wearing of the badges or button
of any labor or fraternal organization
by other than members; amending tlie
act of June 5, 1895, to decrease the; num
ber of terms of enlistment for which en
listed men of the National Guard shall
be entitled to an aditional pay of 25
cents a day, and prohibiting the adul
teration of malt and brewed liquors.
The last of the preliminary arrange
ments for the erection of the now capi
tol building will be made this week,
when architects will be selected at a
meeting of the state board appointed to
supervise the construction of the now
building.
The Pennsylvania State College, near
Bellefonte, came in for a share of at
tack, last week. Senator McQuovn
asked that tlie act to reorganize the
board of trustees of tlie college be con
sidered on second reading. Senator
Kauff'man claimed that this act was in
tended to unload this institution on the
state. , The state had already spent too
much money there. Senator McQuown
claimed this argument was a "chestnut."
Mr. KaufTman further claimed that the
state had given it $1,200,000, but the
college has never been a success; it
never would be a success. The bill,
however, passed second reading. The
act making voting compulsory passed
second reading.
The bill making taxes a lirst lien on
all property passed second and third
reading on special order.
The legislature evidently Is of the
opinion that there are not enough holi
days now to observe. The house adopt
ed a resolution making May 15 a legal
holiday, on the occasion of the unveil
ing of the Washington monument in
Philadelphia. .The resolution was
promptly sent to the senate, where it
will pass, and the governor will sign the
resolution.
Tho excise liquor bill has been
abandoned, but it is said that the bill to
license clubs will become a law. This
bill makes it unlawful for any club or
organization of any kind to sell or supply
liquor to members or others without first
procuring a license. Tho discretion of
granting licenses is lodged in the judges.
When the application is made it must be
accompanied by a list of all the mem
bers, with their places of residence, and
the secretary or treasurer who makes
the application for the licenso.
These bills passed the house finally:
Amending the act of May 31, 181)3, to
make February 13, Lincoln's birthday, a
holiday; allowing liquor dealers and \
their employes to give testimony in cases
where they have been prosecuted for
furnishing liquor to minors; authorizing
labor claimants to take joint appeals.
The vote by which a bill regulating
the forfeiture of life insurance poll- j
cies was defeated was reconsidered,
after which the measure was laid aside '
for further consideration.
The bill requiring all structures here-1
after erected in Philadelphia, which are !
seventy feet or over in height* to bo fire
proof, passed finally. The governor
sent to the senate the appointment of
James 11. Lambert, as insurance com
missioner for a term of three years, be
ginning May 1, 1897. Mr. Lambert was
originally appointed by Governor Hast
ings to an unexpired term. Nissley.
In veHtlguting the Wyoming Region.
The committee which is Investigating
the condition of the miners of the an
thracite region were in Wilkosbarre last
week. A number of miners and laborers
were examined as to the time they have
worked lately, the condition of the
mines and the plan of management, and
one and all testified there was much less
work than there was a few years ago.
Many attributed the causo to tho Influx
of a large number of foreigners, who
work for less than the English-speaking
1 miner can ulford to do. They also at
FREELAND, PA., MONDAY, MAY 10, 1897.
tributed tuany of the accidents to these
men, who am both careless and inex
perienced miners.
General Superintendent Morgan, of
the Susquehanna Coal Company, said in
regard to this that the certificate law
was ineffective, and he favors its repeal,
lie would suggest that a law be passed
requiring men to have five years'experi
ence in mining and to be able to speak
English before they are placed in charge
of a breast. Mr. Morgan said that be
fore being given a miner's certificate a
man should be required to give evidence
and proof of his practical knowledge of
mining.
A number of employes of the Lehigh
and Wilkesbarro Coal Company gave
such favorable testimony that Major
Roberts, of Wilkesbarro, who is OIK; of
the investigators, remarked to the other
members of the committee that he does
not think the company is furnishing a
fair sample of witnesses, as those who
testified are fortunate men who are
working gangways, and what they earn
is not a fair criterion from which to
form an estimate of the earnings of the
average miner.
The last witnesses were chiefly mine
owners and officials. General Superin
tendent E. 11. Lawall, of the Lehigh
and Wilkesbarro Company, detailed the
work of his company and said the rea
son more work was not given its em
ployes was that there was not enough
demand for coal.
A. J. Davis, owner of the large War
rior Run colliery, said he did not know
of any discrimination on freights.
Freight is fixed according to the price
of coal. The witness stated that he did
not beiicvo there is any distress among
the miners.
Mayor F. M. Nichols said ho had lived
in Wilkesbarro since 1573, and has never
known of a time when destitution has
been more prevalent and bitter among
the miners. His knowledge, lie said,
was obtained from interviews with char
itable organizations and poor directors,
visits to the homes of the poor and his
experience in connection with the pres
ent food supply station.
Mine Inspector (J. W. Williams said he
believes the present miners' certificate
law has done the miners no good. There
are many men mining coal not fit to do
so. Mr. Williams said he did not know
of any destitution, but have heard of a
great deal.
William Leslie said that there is cor
ruption among the minors' examining
boards; that English-speaking men se
cure certificates for foreigners and get
money for the same. Also that miners
are compelled to trade in company
stores. Chambers in mines are sold to
miners by bosses. Mine inspectors have
been appointed who were incompetent,
securing their positions through politi
cal "pulls"—men utterly Incapable of
answering the questions put to them.
Witness said he worked at all kinds of
work in the mines and declared it would
be better i? all miners were English
speaking men. Witness said that he
can prove that applicants for chambers
in mines have approached mining bosses
and given them various amounts for a
job.
Mr. Leslie also said that one certifi
cate often does for a dozen foreigners,
as they pass it from one to another. On
account of their unpronounceable names,
it is impossible to Identify them. Mr.
Leslie said that the clerk at Rice mine
is sent into the mine to take orders from
employes who are forced to deal in the
company store.

From the Lunsford Leader.
Ben Davis, a politician and successful
business man, of Freeland, was in town
over Sunday but had to return on Mon
day on account of the illness of one (if
his children. Ren left town in 1875 and
located at Freeland. which at that time
' w is not much of a town, but ho held on
I and has grown up with the town until
at the present time In* has the most suc
cessful Hour and feed business in lower
j Luzerne. Call at his place when you
will, you will find Ben surrounded by
friends, a pleasant smile and a warm
grasp of the hand is always ready for
everyone who enters. Ben is a good
story-teller and one of his best is about
a strike of slate pickers at the screen
building and to that strike Ben -places
his own emancipation from the mines.
He has a good business, a cozy home
and we hope he will live long to enjoy
the fruits of his labor and that the next
time we visit him we will find him handl
ing the Freeland postoffice as success
fully as he is conducting his own busi

fleeing their path. Just below East
j Market street stood an Ashley car, filled
j with passengers. Before the latter had
; time to get out, the team rushed past,
j The hubs of the wheels struck the side
of the car, stripping it from one end to
I the other.

were bruised in the scramble. A little
j further down the street the horses ran

Gubernatorial Campaign 1* On.
From the Wilkesbnrro Newsdealer,
i It is not often the case that a guber-

tablished headquarters, starts a whole
1 year in advance, but we are living in an
I age of progress, and the old slow meth
j ods are fast disappearing. The friends
I of Hon. John Lolsenring have opened
j headquarters in this city and from now
on until the convention of 1898 will
make every effort to secure delegates
and enlist sympathy for him throughout
the state. The organization is in cap
able hands, and their efforts and results
are bound to help Mr. Lolsenring im
mensely. The gubernatorial light for
