Freoland was visited yesterday by numbers of people from Wilkesbarre and other Wyoming valley towns.

Early 011 Sunday morning, near Thacker, William McNeals, of Wilkes barre, I'a., was shot and Instantly kill ed by Potor R. Hall. From the infor mation at hand it appears that for some time young Hall and McNeals have been working together ut a lumber camp. Their relations have never been friendly, and on Saturday they had a violent quarrel, but no blows wore ex changed. Saturday night Hall lingered long over the flowing bowl and In the small hours of the early morning tho liquor, which was of the lighting kind, began to get in its work. Hall became boast ful of bis prowess, and avowed ills in tention to "kill somebody before the day was done." About a week ago another Hall, a brother, killed a man near Dry Fork aud was arrested aud lodged in jail. Peter announced to the public that 110 was bloodthirsty and was anxious to join his brother iu tho Williamson jail. About tills time McNeals appeared on the scene, and Hall, we are informed, without warning, shot him twice, one ball passing through the lungs and resulting in instant death. Hall attempted to escape but was taken into custody by a posse of citi zens and turned over to tho authorities. Latent. Ballot Mark Decl*io(i. Chief Justice Storret, of the supreme court, has handed down an opinion in the Gearliart township election contest from Northumberland county which will bo of interest to the voters of tho entire state. Judge Savidge decided somo time ago that a voter making a cross in tho circle at tho head of the column on tho ticket, not containing the names of the candidates for all tho offices to be voted for could not vote for another person who is a candidate for an ollico for which no nominee was con tained in said column, by marking a cross in the square opposite tiie name of such person in another column. Exceptions to the decision of Judge Savidge wore taken and tho case ap pealed to the supreme court. That court reversed Judge Savidge and sus tained tho election board of said town ship and directed tiie contestants to pay the costs. By the decision of the supreme court a voter may vote for all the candidates contained in tho column by placing a cross in the circle at the top of the col umn and lie may also vote for a candi didate for an office for wiiich no nominee appears iu said column, by making a cross in the square opposite the name of such candidate in another column. Greek l'rie*t* Organize. Tho Greek Catholic priests of the United States mot on Friday in Phila delphia to form an association to coun teract the work of the Greek orthodox missionaries in this country.

Peter Kosolyak, Hans ford, secretary; Very Rev. Cornelius Laurisiu, Shenandoah, treasurer; Rev. John Szabo, Lindsay. Rev. Nicholas Pidhorclzky, Jorsey City, and Rev. Ga briel Martyak, Freeland, compose the board of directors. After tho election a committee was appointed to write a letter to Rome ask ing tho pope to send a bishop from Aus tro-llnngary to the United States in or der that tiie Greek Catholic priests of this country might be under his juris diction. At present there are fiffcy throo churches and chapels for the thousands of Austro-Hungarians in this country, and their spiritual wants are attended to by thirty-eight Greek priests. Outing 011 AugiiHt 19. The several committees appointed by tho Tigers Athletic Club to make prep arations for tho trolley excursion and outing of the club at Hazlu park on Saturday, August 19, have begun work. As is customary witli this club, tho event will be marked with the energy and enterprise for which it Is famed, | and should fair weather prevail Hazle | park will certainly bo tho Mecca for all the pleasuro-seekers of tho Lehigh region 011 that dato.

FIRST ATLANTIC LEAGUE GAME ON THE LOCAL GROUNDS. In a Pretty and Exciting Foulest at the Tiger* Park the 4Vilke*larre Club De feated Reading by a Score of 9 to 7 A Large Audience Win Present. Of the vast throng of people in town yesterday none of those who found their way to the Tigers park to see the ball game between Wilkesbarre and Reading, tiie main attraction of the day, had any cause to regret their choice of spending the afternoon. All tho ac companiments ef base ball, in the order of succession, enthusiasm, interest, de light, excitement and final satisfaction wore there to please the large audience. The game, which ended in victory for Wilkesbarre by a score of 9 to 7, was such as the people of this section like to witness. It oponed up briskly with sharp playing on both sides. Gradually it warmed into a heavy-hitting but bet ter Holding game, and closed with the playing and tiie excitement at its high est, point. This constituted the chief pleasure of tho home people, hut it was doubly ap preciable by the followers of the county seat team, who were present in largo numbers, froiu the fact that Wilkes barre took tho lead in tho tiiird innings and succeeded in winning out two runs ahead of their opponents. Tho crowd was tho largest that has gathered in tho park since the famous county championship game between Wilkesbarre aud Hazleton a few years ago, when the high-water mark of base ball in Froeland was readied. Fully 1,000 peoplo were on the grounds yesterday. Many of these ar rived early. The grand stand was tilled almost in a single rush, and tho choice places along tho side linos woro speodily occupied. When tho crowd began to jostle one another good-naturedly for position the players appeared. It was noticed that some of the players and a good many of the visitors were disposed to criticize the Hold. Thoy seemed to bo surprised to (bid a few small stones on the dia mond and a little unshaved lawn in the outor territory. But before the game was over the opinion prevailed generally among the audience that a few irregularities iu tho Hold do not prevent first-class work. Both teams took considerable pre liminary practice, so tiiat all the men woro thoroughly warmed up when Um pire Betts, at 3 o'clock, put tho ball in play. Reading batted first, but could not mako anything. Wilkesbarre was blanked iu the first two innings, but opened the run-getting in the third by scoring two. They fol lowed up tlio advantage in tho fifth by lighting on to Fertch for four straight hits, which with the help of an error by Cockman, netted tliem five runs. Reading was put out in oue-two-throo order for the next live innings. They could do nothing at all with Goodwin's cannon ball delivery. But an accident occurred to tho Wilkesbarre man in the sixth inning, which weakened him for the. rest of tho game and gave Reading their opportunity to score. Goodwin sent one of his spoediost balls into Snyder. Quick as a Hash it was returned from Snyder's bat and struck the pitcher a little below the heart. The ball rebounded from his body a few yards. Goodwin followed it, picked it up and throw the batter out at first. Thon he roelod and fell full length on the ground. He. lay there motionless for several minutes, suffering considerably, but finally revived and resumed the game. The mishap was one which is seldom met with iu base ball, and sent a shiver through the whole audience. Goodwin's nerve in putting tho man out was loudly applauded, but when, instead of being carried off the field seriously injured as ovcryono expected, he began to pitch again, ho received an ovation. The plucky pitcher, however, was weakened by tho hard blow. His shoots lacked the speed which attracted gen eral attention in the early part of the game. Five hits were made off him iu the last three innings, whereas only two hits, without, a run, were made iu the first six. j Reading made a dash to win in tho last inning, but fell short. Wilkes i barro had tho gamo well in hand throughout and finished victorious. ' A sensational fly catch by Ciymer I and the ovor-the-fence homo run hits of i Clyiuer and Drauby were the features of I the game. I Following is tho complete score: WLHKKSRARRR. HEADING. R. H.O.
