The Milumy Fraud Again.
The exposure In tho TBIBUNR early
last month of the queer business meth
ods of the company which sold build
ing lots and farms at Milmay, N. J., to
people of lower Luzerne, through one
Moore, a reputed agent of the land
owners, gave tho numerous victims
hereabouts great anxiety, and some of
them have since tried to got at the
bottom of the fraud. The Hazleton
Standard on Friday published letters
from E. L. Wood, ot Philadelphia, presi
dent of tho land company, which were
<ent to Squlru Jones, of West Hazleton,
in reply to requests for information
concerning the account of Anton StofT,
a Harwood Pole.
Stoif, it appears, paid 8307.50 for a
live-acre plot, but received no deod for
the land. President Woo I says the com
pany's books show but SSO paid on tills
account. The deed for the property, he
claims, was given to Moore. Wood says
he does not know Moore's address at
present, and repudiates his sales by
stating tliat lie was not especially cm
ployed by the land company.
The general opinion of the North Side
victims is that they were buncoed, and
few, if any, will spend any money trying
to recover what they have lost. Never
theless, it is a pity that these scoundrels
should escapo.
Anthracite Coal TraUe.
From tile Philadelphia Inquirer,
The feature of tho anthracite coal
trado is tho greater Inquiry for tho
demand for deliveries. Although vessel
freights from Buffalo to Chicago have
gone up from 30 cents to 50 cents a ton,
Western consumers are calling fur the
coal they have bought and the same
situation prevails in New England.
Coal is, therefore, moving very freely
and tho trado may be called active. But
prices are very bad. Stove coai is soil
ing in New York harbor as low as ever
it did and there is no reason to expect
there will be any improvement this sea
son. The companies are mining all the
coal they can handle and under these
circumstances higher prices are not to
bo looked for.
Father Killed and Sun Injured.
Petor 'l'olan was almost instantly
killed and his son Hugh seriously injur
ed by a fall of top coal at Alaska colliery,
near Mount Carmol, on Friday morning.
They had fired a shot in tho breast the
night previous, which loosened a largo
boulder ovorbcad. While the men were
ascending the chute Friday morning the
mass gavo way without a moment's
warning. Peter was caught directly
beneath tho fall, and sustained a frac
tured skull, from which he died a few
moments later. IBs son was not caught
in tho fall, but was injured by a large
piece which had become detached from
tho main body and struck him while ho
was hastening for assistance. Peter
Tolan leaves a wife and four children.
Wife-Thief Sent to Jail.
George Frcoiuer, of Hazle Ilrook,
boarded with John Sulgin until October
24, when he left, taking Snlgin's wife
atid child along with him. They took
tip their residence at Freeland, and on
Saturday last returned to Hazle Brook
with the intention of taking away the
household goods belonging to Sulgin.
Before they left, Froenior induced Sul
gin's wife to go to the store and get store
goods on Snlgin's account, which was
done to the amount of sl9. On Satur
day evening Sulgin had Frcoinor arrest
ed before Squire Buckley. He was
taken to Wilkesbarre jail this morning
by Officer Molik.
Married on Saturday Morning,
Ex-Postmaster William F. Boyle and
Miss Bid Roarty were quietly married
at St. Ann's Catholic church on Satur
day morning by Rev. M. J. Fallihee.
It. J. O'Donnell was groomsman and
Miss Bid Boyle was bridesmaid. Imme
diately after the ceremony the bridal
party drove to White Ila von, where a
wedding dinner was served, after which
they took a west-bound train for Niag
ara Falls, where the honeymoon will lie
spent. Mr. and Mrs. Boylo aro both
well-known people and number their
friends by the hundreds, all of whom
wish them a pleasant journey through
life.
Triumph of a Newspaper.
The new eloctric light plant at Le
highton was operated for the first
time last Monday evoning. The plant
is owned by tho borough, and the suc
cess of tho people in providing them
selves with their own light is due largely
to tho efforts of the Advocate, which
agitated municipal ownership. As our
roaders will remember, the light of the
Advocate against the private corportation,
which previously reigned supreme, was
waged bitterly and the paper was put to
no small expense by the light company's
refusal to give it light and power.

POLITICAL POINTERS.
Chairman Paul Dasch, of the Demo
cratic county committee, has no doubt
of the election of the entire ticket. His
belief is not based on superficial obser
vations, but ot) the reports of reliable
canvassers who gave figures exactly as
they found them in their respective
districts. The fact that a poll of the
county shows a large majority for botli
state and county tickets should occasion
no surprise. Luzerno is naturally a
Democratic county, and this year, with
a more united party than for eight years
past, a majority of from 3,000 to 5,000
over the disorganized factions which op
pose Democracy Is as little as could be
expected.
The P. O. S. of A. in Huntingdon
county is up in arms against the effort
t-o introduce politics into the order by
Quay. The Boss has sent to Huntingdon
Clarence F. llnth, of Shamokin, former
state president of the order, "to make a
political speech in favor of the Quay
machine, and to influence votes fn the
lowerpartof Huntingdon county." The
mission of llnth is vigorously condemned
by local P. (). S. of A. members in con
tributions to Huntingdon papers.
A Fourth ward Republican on Satur
day informed the TRIBUNE that to his
personal knowledge nineteen straight
Republicans in his ward will vote for
Sheridan and lie bolioves as many more
will vote for Evans. Snyder is consider
ed an out-and-out Quayite and conse
quently will get few votes in respectable
communities.
| George li. Shifter, the Democratic
| candidate for controller, will get a big
vote in the Fifth legislative district.
This district is Mr. Sliierff's own home
and his noighbors are with him to a man
irrespective of politics. It is a good
sign when a man's own people stick up
for him, as it is proof that the man is
all right.
In all probablity there will be a Demo
cratic mass meeting at tho Grand opera
house Saturday evening. Colonel Martin
and all the* Democratic candidates and
Hugh Sheridan, candidate for represen
tative, will bo present.
Rev. Silas C. Swallow, Prohibition
candidate for governor, will arrive here
at 9.30 o'clock on Thursday morning.
At noon he will address the voters at
the Cottage hotel on the issues of the
campaign.
If over a set of candidates received a
chilling reception, it was accorded the
Republican office-seekers on Friday
when they reached Freeland. The
party workers simply ignored their
presence.
Morgan 11. Williams' effort to corral
the firemen's voto is as complete a
failure as was his attempt to capture
the friendship of tho soldiers. They
have no time for "make-believe" friends.
, Tho sheriff's proclamation shows no
improvement over last year. Tho two
polls of tho South ward of Freeland are !
still omitted from tho list of voting j
places.
F. I*. Coster, of Pittston, is printing
tho ballots for this county. His bid
was tho lowest, $5.25 per 1,000. About
80,000 ballots will be furnished.
Republican meetings in the upper end
of the county are slimly attended.
Flocking to Junks' Support.
The movement in favor of Jenks,
which began about two weeks ago in
the ranks of independent Republicans,
is now sweeping over tho state with an
Irreslstablc force, and unless somo tre
mendous blunder Is made before election
day nothing can stop its momentum.
The sudden change which swept over
Pennsylvania is variously accounted for,
but whatever may be the cause there is
no denying tho Immense proportions the
Republican revolt has attained. In
both the anthracite and bituminous
regions tho independents are flocking to
Jenks' support in numbers which daily
increase, while in tho oil region and
around tho iron Industries about Pitts
burg the movement lias staggered the
Republicans.
In Western Pennsylvania the uprising
was led by the Pittsburg Dispatch, tho
most influential Republican nowswaper
outside of Philadelphia. Last week the
Pittsburg I slider also deserted Stono for
Jenks, leaving only one newspaper in
Pittsburg supporting tho Republican
stato ticket. Taking their cue from
those two great papers, tho smaller
dailies and weeklies of tho party are
throwing off Quay's shackles and boldly
advocating the election of the Demo
cratic candidates. The revolt in tho
western section surpasses that which
took place in either 1882 or 1890.
Jenks' victory at present Is certain.

GALLANT RECORD OF PATRICK DE
LACY, OF SCRANTON.
TeMimony of a Comrade of His Bravery
at GuttyKlmrK, tlie Wilderness, Cold Har
bor, Spottsylvania and on Other Fields.
Given u Medal by Congress.
Although the conspicuous gallantry
displayed in tho civil war by Captain
Patrick De Lacy, Democratic nominee
for secretary of Internal affairs, Is a
familiar topic among Union veterans of
this state, especially of this county and
Lackawanna, details of somo thrilling
adventures in which the captain figured
are givnn in response to inquiries from
many who have listened to him during
his tour of tho state with George A.
Jenks and other speakers. Nautilus
Sluttor, of Lehigh township, in that
county, who was drill sergeant under
Do Lacy, in Company A, of the One
Hundred and Forty-third Regiment
Pennsylvania Volunteers, tells this
story:
"The men held DeLacy in such regard
that his advice or request to them was
at all times obeyed. At Gettysburg I
was a sharpshooter on the iirst day, and
was shot through tho right arm, ut or
near tho McPhcrson barn. When tho
regiment was hotly engaged along tho
Chambersburg pike I went into the barn
about tho time that the rebels drove
the Ono Hundred and Fiftieth Pennsyl
vania back, and the Ono Hundred and
Forty-third Pennsylvania changed front
to the left and rear, to meet the attack
on their left, I witnessed the color
sergeant and colors of the One Hundred
and Forty-third go down and at that
moment I saw Sergnant De Lacy and
heard him call out to Major Conyngham
to rally the regiment on tho colors,
which was done and tho colors were
saved.
"Company A was deployed on the
skirmish line May 5, 1804, and wo open
ed the Wilderness fight. Tho woods
were so denso that it was impossible to
presorve our alignment and the regiment
soon after it became engaged was com
pelled to fall back owing to its flanks
being turned on the hill in the rear of
tho first positions. De Lacy rallied the
regiment, or that portion of it that fell
back across the swale. Soon after that
time tho regiment all fell back to the
field, where we reformed, and the brigade
soon after made a charge to the left of
the first position, whore their regiment
became hotly engaged and fought until
dark.
"Just bofore dark Sergeant Hub Noglo
was shot through the right breast. De
Lacy rushed to him, picked him up and
carried him off tho field. On the morn
ing of May (5 tho battle was renewed
with terrible irnpotuosity, and De Lacy
was with us urging tho boys on, and
holding them steady under the terrible
fire. In the afternoon of tho Oth wo
fought at tho Cross Roads, where Do
Lacy led the charge that recaptured the
works, which tho enemy had taken from
tho Union soldiers of another command.
"Do Lacy hero captured a rebel battle
Hag, for which act Iu; was presented with
a modal of honor by congress. At North
Anna ho saved tho colors of the regiment.
He rallied tho company as no other man
could at Cold Harbor, Laurel Hill,
Bothesda Church, Tolopomy, Spottsyl
vania, Petersburg, Weldon Railroads.
Vaughan Road, Hatchors's Run, South
sido Road and second Hatcher's Run.
"Ho had command of tho company
two-thirds of the time, and was consid
ered by all tho boys as their leader, and
tho company relied more upon him in
time of battlo than upon any other officer
of tho company. Tho rest of the officers
wore either killed, sick or wounded. At

There is more catanh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, ami prescrib
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment, pro
nounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to bo a constitutional
disease and therefore requires constitu
tional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. It is taken in
ternally in doses ft in ten drops t- a
teaspoouful. It acts directly on the
blood p.nd mucous surfaces of the sys
tcra. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials. Address.
