Unless William Rogers apologizes to Schuylkill county court for insulting and defying Judge Koch, and agrees to answer a question which was put to him last Friday by the judge, he will live and die in jail, and as Rogers is a young man of 24 years, of sound health, he may live to an old age. Rogers stands guilty of contempt of court and was remanded to jail to re in kin there until he agrees to shrievc himself of contempt, lie not only re fused to answer a question put to him by the judge but emphasized his refusal by saying he didn't care if lie is kept in jail all his life. Julge Ivocli was very indignant and instructed the clerk of courts to make a note of the case and hold the young man until he complied with tlio roquest. This incident was during the trial of Ishmael Rogers, of Frackville, who was charged with furnishing two revolvers to his son, William, in jail, to aid him and three other prisoners to escape. The question which young Rogers re fused to answer was: "Who gave you the ammunition? 1 * Luzerne's M. C. llcurd From. Representative Williams on Saturday introduced the petition of a large num ber of citizens of Wilkesbarre and the advisory board of the American Protec tive Association of Luzerne county, favoring further restriction of immigra tion: also resolutions of the National Association of Manufacturers favoring the establishment of an International American Rank; also the resolutions of local union No. 114, of the Miners" National Union, of Wilkesbarre. favor ing the passage of the various labor re form bills before congress; also the pro test of the Pennsylvania Hoard of Health against the national quarantine bill now before the senate. No Anthracite for Navy Purpose*. Coal operators and others throughout the anthracite region are bringing pressure to bear upon the navy depart ment. to use anthracite coal on warships, instead of bituminous. It. is claimed that the latter is in the end more expen sive, more dangerous and more notice able at sea than hard coal. The argu ments on the merits of the two coals aro overwhelmingly in favor of our product, but Mark Ilanna, whose firm supplies three-fifths of the coal used by the government vessels, is not in the senate for glory alone, and his "pull" prevents the naval department from seriously considering the advisability of making a change. Prosecuting Committee Meets. The Prosecuting Committee held a meeting in Hazleton on Thursday night and reviewed the financial affairs as well as the proposition to fight against Sheriff Martin and his deputies. The attorneys who actively conducted the case in Wilkesbarre for the prosecution were paid SI.OOO each and there is a balance of $1,400 still in the treasury. The advisability of continuing the pros ecution was discussed at length. The statistics showed that there are 30,(KM) "foreigners" in this section who might be assessed, but no definite action was taken. St. Putrlck'n Memory Honored. The parade here in memory of St. Patrick was a most creditable demon stration. The various societies and the Green Men turned out with well-filled ranks, the summer weather of the after noon making marching a pleasant pas time. In the evening one of the largest balls held in some years was conducted at Valines' opera house by Division 10 and continued until 4 o'clock Friday morning. The ball was opened by a grand march, participated in by over 100 couples, and led by Master of Cere monies William Doggett and lady. Ladles, don't fail to see those fancy 25c skirts at A. Oswald's.

Vein of Valuable Ore Found. The only uranium over found in the form of a vein, and the only uranium found in this country iii any form, is now being worked on Mount Pisgah. near Mauch Chunk. Never before has this valuable mineral been noted in a vein, and what little has been taken from the earth has been in Germany and Wales, where it is occasionally met in the form of loose rock. The lead at Mount Pisgah has been already uncov ered for a distance of forty feet, and it is not known how much further it runs. Tlio discovery was made thirteen years ago. but until the first of tlio pres ent year it has been a secret locked in tlio breast of the discoverer, Geo. Paist, of Atlantic City. Over twelve years ago, during a visit to the mountain, he picked up some rocks. Being a mineral ogist, he found they contained uranium, a very scare and valuable mineral. An assay showed tlio rocks to be rich in the metal. An attempt to purchase the land was unsuccessful, as the owners, the Lehigh Navigation Company, would not sell it. but after ten years of perseverance a lease for ten years was finally secured and then Mr. Palst announced the rea son of his great anxiety about the land. A second assay made at the University of Pennsylvania shows the earth to be worth $24,000 a ton. Uranium is a very hard but moder ately mailable metal, resembling nickle or iron in its lustre and color. Adjudged a Drunkard. On Friday it was adjuged in court that Squire Michael Lyons, of Pittston. is an habitual drunkard and unfitted to act for himself in the disposition of li is estate. A hearing was had before a jury of six and the testimony was of a character to indicate that Mr. Lyons has been a confirmed drunkard for the past two years. The proceedings were begun by his nephew. William Lyons, and C. Donnelly was appointed us his guardian. Mr. Shiffer, tho president of the People's bank of Pittston, testified that Lyons had $1,057.51 in the bank. Mr. Fitzpatrick said Lyons was in the habit of spending $75 in two weeks. The object of the proceedings is to save the money Lyons lias in bank and to see j that it is properly used. Lyons is about 80 years old aud quito helpless. Pre viously he had borne a good reputation Anthracite Coal Trade. From the Philadelphia Inquirer. There is a disposition all through tlio anthracite coal trade to await the an nouncement of the spring price circular, which is expected about April 1, and business in tho ineantimo has been re duced to the smallest proportions. Cou summcrs have plenty of coal on hand and the result of a very mild winter must bo overcome. The local trade is quiet stagnant, al though pea coal is scarce and is quoted at a premium. The cotlieries are pro ducing little, working but two days a w-eek, and there is more demand for this small si/.o than for any other. Prices are quite irregular, and no pros pects of much business until the spring circular is determined upon. nail New. for 1.800 Men. The Philadelphia and Reading Coal Company will abandon at once Thomas ton and Pine Forrest collieries, in the Schuylkill region, because nolther opera tion is mining sufficient coal to make it pay the corporation to continue them. The collieries will be closed as soon as the loose coal can be removed, which will be accomplished next week. The abandoning of the l'ioo Forrest colliery throws out of employment nearly 1.000 hands. Most of those live at St. Clair and vicinity. The Thomaston colliery is in the Heckscherville Valley, a few miles west of Pottsville. Tho abandon ing of both operations moans the drop ping of at least 1,800 bands permanent ly- Exodus of Foreigners.

Chloroformed Father Aunt and llin Ser vants, Then Looted the Keoidenee from Garret to Cellar—Took a Gold Watch and Over $-tOU in Canli. Tho residence of Bev. Father Aust, pastor of the Polish Catholic church, Hazleton, was entered by thieves Thurs day night and looted from cellar to garret. The robbers effected an en trance by cutting a hole in a shutter, which permitted them to remove the latch. When Father Aust awoke Friday morning lie was very dizzy and suffered from a nausea that produced vomitting. Seeing that his clothes had been removed from the room he quickly concluded that something unusual had taken place and called for the oilier inmates, but re ceived no reply. He found some clothes and partly dressing himself hurried around to awake them. lie then found that they had all been drugged with chloroform and were yet in a dazed condition from its effects, even the watch dog showing signs of having re ceived a dose. When restoratives had been applied a search was made and it was found that the burglars had taken their time, for every drawer in the house was broken open. Over S4OO in cash was taken, part of which was tlie church collections of several Sundays. The priest's gold watch and every other thing of value belonging to him and the servants had been carried away. A gold and a silver chalice had been removed from their places, but not carried away. Father Aust reported his loss to police headquarters, but no clue has yet been obtained. The robbery in all its details is similar to the robbing of a priest's housrvin Shenandoah a short time ago, which makes it evident that an or ganized band is operating. The priest is a member of the commit tee having in charge the prosecution of Sheriff Martin and his deputies. Democratic State Convention. The next Democratic state convention will be held in Ilarrisburg about a month after the holding of the Republican state convention. State Chairman Garmau had a Conference on Friday with State Secretary Van Dyke on matters pre liminary to the meeting of the state committee on April 29. Mr. Garman said he had been in cor respondence with various members of the state cominitt.ee, and it looks as if all will agree on June 29 as the date for holding the state convention. "It will either bo June 29 or the week following the Fourth of July," said Mr. Garman. "and the preference thus far is for holding tho convention in Harris burg. Allentown and Reading aro spok en of, but the trouble is that those cities are too far off the the main lilies of the railroads.'' "Who will benominatod for governor?" Mr. Garman did not answer immedi ately. "I don't know." said he, after a pause, "but whoever lie is iiu will be a friend of William J. Bryan." It is understood that Chairman Gar man has a kindly side for ex-Governor Pattison, who of late lias been coming to the front. The ex-governor was a Bryan man in the presidential tight, but he was not called upon to take the stump throughout the state- Mr. Garman says that he is glad to note a tendency on the part of the press of the state to acknowledge that there is a very lively Democratic party in Pennsylvania, and he remarked that he would show just what that party can do this year.
