FREELAND, PA., MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1898.
THREE MINERS ENTOMBED.
Sudden Ituiti of Coal In a Nantlcoke
Shaft Hurled Three Hen.
Three men woro entombed In No. 1
shaft of the Husquehanna Coal Com
pany, at Nantlcoke, Friday aftornoon.
They are: John Shannon, aged 32, has
a wife and one child; John A. Jones,
agod 28, single; George A. Morgan, aged
34, has a wife and three children.
These men, with John Jones and
John Wolford, were engaged In driving
a plane in one of the lower workings In
order to get out some coal which was
rather difficult to roach from the main
gangway. Tho work was very dangor
ous owing to the plane being vory steep
and the coal through which It was cut
being loose and running, so that at any
time a rush of coal might occur. To
guard against this a box had been built
to hold back any which might come
down.
Shannon, Morgan and John A. Jones
were some distance back when the acclt
dent occurred. Wolford and his com
panion heard a sudden crash, followed
by a prolonged roar, and at onco knew
what had happened. Tho coal was
rushing down upon them. They ran
for their lives and escaped just in time.
Once out of danger, they waited ex
pectantly for their companions, but they
did not come. Knowing they could do
nothing, they carried tho news to tho
surface. Assistant Superintendent Ton
kin and Insldo Superintendent Edwin
Davis at once organized a rescuing party
and thoy have been at work slnco.
While it is generally bellovod that the !
entombed men have boon killed, there is
a chance of their being allvo. In Its
descent tho coal may have blocked, and
if this occurred the men may be In a
safe place. As tho coal Is loose, they
get plenty of air and might live for
several days.
Later.—Lato on Saturday night the
bodies of the three mon were rocovored.
All were dead.
Lower Freights for Hard Coal.
W. U. Thomas, of Pittston, chairman
of tho subcommittee on railroads, ap
pointed at the recent convention of busi
ness men held In Scranton for the pur
pose of devising means for improving
the anthracite coal trade, conforred with
other taembors of the committee at Haz
leton on Friday. Alleged discrimina
tion on tho part of the anthracite carry
ing roads againstanthraclto coal was the
subject of discussion, and It was finally
agreed to address a letter to the presi
dents of tho various coal carryihg roads,
requesting a conference, at which an
agreement amicable to both parties is to
entered Into. If no concessions aro
made by tho companies, then the Inter
state Commerce Commission will be ap
pealed to by the business moil's associa
tion.
New Courthoune to He Itullt.
The indications are that tho work of
demolishing the present courthouse will
soon begin. The now structure has
been agreed upon, and nothing further
is expected to delay Its erection. It will
be built upon the site of the old court
house. Tho estimated cost is half a
million. It Is stated that tho commis
sioners Intend to have the plans drawn
by a Luzerne architect, tho building
erected by a Luzerne contractor and
the material to come from the county as
far as tho samo is practicable. Work
will begin as soon as quarters for tho
oftielals aro procured.
A Change of Pastors.
Rev. John E. Stas, pastor of St. John's
Slavonian church for the past three
years, has been transferred toOlyphant,
Lackawanna county, to take charge of
the Slavonian church of that place, the
priest thoro having boon transferred to
l'&ssiac, N. J. Rev. Stas was one of the
hardest working clorgymen in town and
did much to build up and improvo St.
John's congregation In numbers and
influence. He leave* for his new charge
next Wednesday and his successor will
be Rev. Charles Pajchlsak, who was
recently ordained.
To He Ordained a Priest.
Rornard J. O'Donnoll, of Freeland,
will be ordained a priest at St. Thomas'
church, Vlllanova, on Thursday by
Monsignor Martinelli, and will read his
first mass next Sunday at St. Ann's
church at 10.30 a. m. Rev. L. A. De
lurey, president of Villanova college,
will preach the sermon here and act as
deacon at the mass. Mr. O'Donnoll is
the first Freeland young man to become
a Catholic priest, and his first mass will
undoubtedly be largoly attended.
This Was a Windfall.
The heirs of Augustus S. Van Wickle,
the coal baron of Ilazlcton, who recently
mot death by the accidental discharge
of his gun, have received #02,500 from
the Mutual Life Insurance Company of

POLITICAL PICKUPS.
Charlos R. Jonos, state chairman of
tho Prohibition committee, In a recent
Intorvlewat Pittsburg said: "Dr. Swal
low will hare a plurality of 50,000 to
73,000. 1 sincerely believe that lie will
win by that much. It is going to be a
clean sweep. Wo aro going to capture
Republican strongholds we bad not
thought of getting some time ago. YVo
aro going to got Luzerne county, for
example, and that is ono of the last
counties in tho state you would think
wo could carry."
Congressman Williams' lilting for the
soldier boys of tho Ninth regiment did
not appear until the Republican party
ronooilnatud him for congress. When
tho Ninth was suffering at Chicka
mauga, and when the men really needed
assistance nnd had a right to oxpcct
thelrcongressnian to help thorn got their
camp location changed, Mr. Williams
was rot heard of. It is small politics to
make capital out of soldiers' sufferings.
Tho conversion of the Cross C'reek
Coal Company and to
Uuayiam has been announced nnd sur
prises only those who failed to keep tab
on recent movements of tho "Drifton
gang." It is alleged that soino solemn

Lycoming county on Friday. Dan two
years ago was tho Democratic candi

and last Juno completed a torm as
school director of Freeland, given him
by the party. Ills change of political
faith receives the unanimous approval
of all Democrats who know him.
Hugh Slioridan is making a quiet but
effective and thorough canvass of the
Fourth legislativo district and linds tho
general feeling to be In his favor. Not
in many years has a morn worthy candi
date sought tho office of representee In
lower Luzerne, and worklngmen will
not bo true to themselves and tlielr in

Tho meatlngof the Democratic county
committee and candidates at Wllkcs
barre on Thursday was well attonded
and encouraging reports from every

Dascli intends to wagn a vigorous light
for the success of overy man on the

Sellout Teachers After Money.
From the Hazloton Plain Speaker.
ilazle township school teachers are
looking to the treasurer (or money, but
when he will be able to cash their orders
Is a puzzling question to every member
of tho board. Salaries for the last term
are duo and many of tho ox-teachers aro
anxious for a settlement. Then, too,
teachers who were reappointed do not
know when their salary for the first
month of the present term Is to bo paid.
Hazle township was novor before In so
pitiable a condition financially and
othcrwlso as It is today. In fow yoars
tho term has diminished from ten to eight
months and it is a quostion whether tho
board will bo able to pay them for eight
months' service. Corruption existod
heretofore as charged against the various
hoards, but it has coupled with It today
mismanagement, which is bringing
about an alarming stato of affairs.
Junior Mechanics' Convention.

Junior Order United American Mechan

or a total of 811,000. The tax to each
member for tho Orphans' Homo will bo
ten cents for the year, or a total of
87,400. Scranton wont aftor the next

William Hollar, who escaped from tho
Columbia county jail a month ago, re
turned and gavo hlmsolf up on Thurs
day ovonlng. While ha was froo he
wrote and telephoned tho sheriff that
he would return In time for court, and
his only remark when he returned was:
"I said I would come back and here 1

who oscapod at the same time with
Hollar, is still at large.

Bartol's beer should commend Itself to
every workingman who is opposed to

beer is made is not affiliated with any
trust or combination, its employes are

There is only one way to euro deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucins lining of the
eustachian tul-e. When this tube gets
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entire
ly closed deafness is tho result, and un
less the infiaination can Le taken out
anil tliis tube restored to its normal con
dition, hearing will bo destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarraii, which is nothing hut an in
flamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of deafness (caused by catarrh)
