Lehigh Valley Grand Army Association
Will He Royally Welcomed on Natur
duy by the People of This Town—Order
of Exercises as Arranged for the Hay
Parade, Convention, Camp Fire, Etc.
Distinguished Visitors to Re With Us
on This Occasion.
Preparations for tho annual parade,
convention and camp firo of the Lehigh
Valley Grand Army Association at Free
land on Saturday next have been com
pleted, and nothing but fair weather
now remains to he had to make the day
ono of tlie most successful ever celebrat- i
ed in our borough.
It is estimated by tho correspondence
committee that at least 900 members of
tho Grand Army will be in line, twenty- j
ono posts having agreed to take part in ;
the celebration. In addition, at least
throe large camps of tho Sons of Veter
ans will be here. Hazleton's military
organization will make its lirst appear
ance in public on Saturday, and two
ladies' brigades, uniformed and drilled,
will help to swell the ranks and add to
the variety of tho line by their presence.
The majority of theso organizations will
be accompanied by music.
Tho committee has had a handsome
areh erected in front of the headquar
ters, the Central hotel, and tho people
of town have been generous in availing
themselves of the services of profes
sional and private decorators, and If all
goes well the visiting veterans and their
friends should return to their homes
with a good opinion of our town.
Besides tho parade, in which the
greatest interest is centered, the asso
ciation will hold a business session at
3.30 o'clock and a camp liro at 7.30
o'clock. Botli events will bo hold in the
Grand opera houso and admission will
be free to tho public. Distinguished
visitors and speakers will be present., as
shown by the program.
Tho selling of tlekets at one-fare rate
on the Lehigh Valley Railroad at all
stations between Wilkosbarro and Phil
ipsburg, N. J., will be an inducement to
visit our mountain city which many will
take advantage of. and it Is conserva
tively estimated that 8,000 strangers
will seek Freeland's hospitality on Sat
urday. Quite a number of these people
will remain over night, the railroad
company having promised to run special
trains from Freeland on Sunday to take
them to their homes. These excursion
tickets are also good on all trains on
Monday.
By orders of tho borough council the
streets are receiving some extra atten
tion this week, in order that walking
over them may be mado as comfortable
as possible for tho voterans.
The Electric Light Company has also
decided to contribute to the appearance
of the town after dark. Tho arc lights
recently removed from the intersection
of several streets will bo replaced and
lighted on Saturday evening, and the
old-time brilliancy of tho town will
again be with us.
Business people and private citizens,
without an exception, are anxious that
the town should show up well on Satur
day. Representative men from all parts
of the lower coal Holds, tho Lehigh val
ley and some of tho larger cities will bo
hero on that day, and If favorable im
pressions are made upon them this will
redound to the credit of Freeland in
future years.

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only ono way to cure deafness,
an<l that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an intlumed con
dition of the mumus lining of the
eustachian tuho. When this tnbe gets
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entire
ly closed deafness is the result, and un
less tho infiamation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con
dition, hearing will be dtstroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrnh, which is nothing but an in
tlumed condition of the mucous surfacos.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot he cured by Hairs Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars, free.

Captain Danison Stearns, of Company

typhoid fever contracted in tho service.
Captain Stearns is tho son of Major I.
A. Stearns, who holds the position of
president of Coxo Bros. Co., the Cross
Creek Coal Company and the D. S. S.
Railroad. He is the seventeenth man
of tills regiment to die. The captain
came from one of tho most prominent
families in the coal region. His great
great-grandfather, Colonel Nathan Den
nison Stearns, was one of the command
ing officers in the battle now known as
the massacre of Wyoming, and his other
great-great-grandfather, Elijah Shoe
maker, fell in the battle. Captain
Stearns was 23 years old. lie was edu
cated at Philips academy, Andover.
Mass., and at Yale college. He was u
man of magnificent physique, six feet in
height, symmetrically built and weigh
ing 185 pounds. He joined Company B
as a private In March, 1897. On May 5,
1898, just after the regiment was muster
ed into the service of the United States,
ho was elected captain and efficiently

by his fatal illness. Captain Stearns en
joyed the distinction of being the young
est captain in the United States aruiy.
The Ninth Penn'a may soon bo added
to the list of regiments to be mustered
out of tho service, as a result of repre
sentations which Congrossman Morgan
B. Williams mado to President McKin
ley on Tuesday. The Ninth is made up
largely of miners, whoso familios, he
told the president, are suffering greatly
becauso of their absence. The presi
dent promised to give the matter con
sideration, and it is understood ho talked
it over with Secretary Alger, who will
announce his decision tomorrow. It is
believed he will order the Ninth from

to Cainp Meade, where they will be
mustered out. A dispatch from Wash
ington states that the Ninth has beon
ordered to Wilkosbarro to be mustered
out.
An Austrian by the name of John
Hudock, employed as a laborer at Colo
raine, enlisted in the regular service at
Hazleton last week and took the oath of
allegiance. Ho requested a leave of
absence from the lieutenant in order to
draw his back pay, and on receiving per
mission ho applied at the offico of tho
company at Coloraino. The sum due
him was paid and Hudock departed
ostensibly to join his squad. The fact
remains however that ho has not been
soon since and his proscnt whereabouts
are unknown. An effort will be made
to find him and his offence punished, he
being according to tho regulations a
deserter.
