Report* of the Incapacity to Grasp llie Spirit Thai Should I'OSHCH* One in His Position lnstance Given of the Direc tor's Alleged Inhumanity. Things arc running along swimming ly in this end of the Middle Coal Field Poor District if one were to judge it by the fat and sleek appearance of Poor Director Lieb, of Ilarleigh, says the Ha- TTeton Sentinel. Mr. Lieb's self-satisfied siuile as the embodiment of ease and serenity does not shine so brightly with the conditions of the subjects whose ap peals to him for public aid are coldly re ceived or insultingly sneered at. The contrast lias excited public attention on several occasions and the time has ar rived for calling Mr. Lieb's attention thereto. The man Tilling the office of poor di rector in this district must make up his mind that the meek and lowly are en titled to as much respect as the influen tial patronage distributor, and that the duties of poor director are best perform ed by recognizing the charity precept. On Tuesday the Sentinel printed a story of misery that casually came to the attention of a reporter. A Mrs. Elizabeth Jacobs, who had been desert ed by her husband, Andrew Jacobs, ap peared before Mayor Meyers and HEGOEI) FOR BUMTKNANCK for herself and two children. One child, 12 months old, was suffering from cholera infantum. The other, a little four-year-old girl, held the mother's skirt. For five weeks this woman has been going from place to place endeav oring to find food or shelter for herself and little ones. Tho night previous to appealing to the mayor she spent in tho woods. Her father lives at Upper Lehigh and her sister lives at Cranberry. Tho latter it seems lias had little sympathy for her and tho father is already orer-burdenod. Tho story told by tho woman was ex tremely pathetic, but her tears and ap peals, her wan features and despairing expression could not add to the picture of helplessness and hopelessness which the hungry babe on her breast and the innocent tot at her side presented. It was one of the incidents of misfor tune and misery that surround us at all times, but it was not sufficiently striking to impress tho august poor director. HIS ADVICE TO HER WAS I "(let a house and we will supply you witli an order." People passing out North Wyoming street yesterday noticed a woman sitting on tho sills in front of tho electric light station. During the otjtiro afternoon she sat there. A babe she held tightly to her breast and a tot gamboled gaily about the pavement. It was Mrs. Jacobs. She had been told that the poor director would likely be seen in the vicinity of llazle hall, and it was to make another appeal that she stationed herself there. The afternoon passed and the expect ed succor failed to appear. The shad ows were deepening when a reporter again accosted her and learned that during the entire day neither herself nor children had tasted food. She was IN THE DEPTHS OF DESPAIR and saw nothing ahead but to tramp to Upper Lehigh when assistance was of fered to carry her to Freeland. We would like to ask Mr. William Leib why the condition of this woman has not received his attention? At the same time wo cannot neglect noting that complaints made by other applicants for aid are becoming numerous and that a VThe Cure that Cures I (y Coughs, & \ Colds, J & Grippe, ik W.

FREELAND, PA., MONDAY, AUGUST 21, 1899. change in the disposition of Mr. Loib is needed. One widow whose relief was cut, from $8 to 95 was told that representations bad been tnado reflecting upon her character. Out of the support thus received, a family of weak children is to bo maintained. Efforts to learn the AUTIIOIT OK THE SLANDER were unavailing. Others have com plained in like manner and it is about time to remind our poor director that he lias not been placed in high position to either insult or humiliate applicants. The talk indulged in by thoughtless directors about publishing the list ol outdoor relief shows about how far these men understood the tharity system placed in their hands. Destitution is relieved from public and private funds, not with brass bands, bragging or bombastic acclaim, but in a manner that becomes the dignity and self-respect of sincere donors. If Mr. Lieb and his associates feel that they cannot discern the fraudulent from the worthy cake they should resign. Mr. Lieb in particular should be the last man to go around blowing about parasities living off the the public. As an office-holder he ENJOYS AN UNVIABLE RECORD. The public does not give its charity for the purpose of degrading the recipi ent such as is proposed by printing the, list of outdoor relief. This Mrs. Jacobs could not get milk for her babe and it is monstrous to ask that she rent a room before food is sup plied her. Thero are people assisted from place to place on railroad trains, could not this rule, apply to Mrs. Jacobs? In the cause of justice and humanity we call attention to this here, and no political iiilliieuce or bone-hunting pres sure will deter us from making a full and complete expose if these wrongs are not righted fully and promptly. Tlie Outing of the Tigcrn. The trolley excursion and outing of the Tigers Athletic Club on Saturday evening at llazle park fulfilled all the expectations of the members of the club aud of those whose had looked for ward to an evening of pleasure at the Traction Company's resort. The special trains which we.ro run from Freeland and McAdoo wero crowded, every sec tion having more passengers on before the cars started than the Traction Com pany dooms a safe load. The third section leaving here was very heavily loaded, aud owing to the inability of the trolley road officials to supply more cars over 200 people at Freeland, Drif ton and Jeddo were unable to take ad vantage of the excursion rate and had to go on the regular cars, all of which were also crowded entering the park. At tho park the Tigers made it as pleasant as possible for tho vast throng whieh had gathered from all sections of tho region. The night was an ideal one, and socially and financially the affair was one of the largest and most successful yet held on the grounds. St. Ann's band furnished the dancing music at the park. Returning, ail were safely landed at their homes by 1 a. in., and beyond tho derailing of a trailer while passing over a safety switch near Ilarleigh, which did not injure any one, there were no accidents. This wus the first affair of the kind hold by the club and the members are grati fied at the success attained. Tho reputa tion of the organization had much to do with the large attendance, nevertheless tho members believe tho people wore attracted by tho original advertising methods adopted. Printers* ink and newspaper publicity wore used unstint edly, and all these, combined with individual efforts, resulted iu tho success of tho outing.

That tho charms of farce comedy are as potent as ever is atttested by the continued remarkable success of "The Hustler," which with Its funny scenes from real life, tuneful music, contingent of pretty girls and famous singers, dancers and comedians, will be seen here during September. Local theatre-goers have a pronounced penchant for musical farce, and in "The Hustler" their tastes will undoubtedly be gratified to the extent. Tho play is a conglomeration of comedy, music and high-classspocialty work, and it possesses an interesting, compact little story, some skilfully drawn characters and a superabundance of "go." A. Oswald soils Arbuckle's, Dllis wortli's, Lion and Loverlng's coffee at 10 cents a pound. PERSONALITIES. Edward Garis, of Sandy valley, return ed on Friday evening from Philadelphia, where Mrs. (Jaris is recuperating from the effects of a successful operation per formed at St. Joseph's hospital. Jerc Woodring and family have re moved from Sandy Run to Minersville, whore Mr. Woodring will assume the duties of superintendent of M. S. Kem inerer & Co.'s collieries. John J. Gillespie, of Drifton, attend ed the funeral of William Hums in Philadelphia on Friday. The deceased was at. one time a resident of this section. Mrs. J. H. Lauhach and Miss May Roth will visit their sister, Mrs. Joseph Hoclilander, tin's week, at Hartford, Conn. Harry Christall has accepted a posi tion as traveling salesman for a Pitts burg clothing and shoe firm. Mrs. Daniel Krommesand family have returned from a week's visit to Lake Shawnee. Mr. and Mrs. P. M. Boyle, of Kingston, called on relatives in this section last week. Miss Annie McMenamin is visiting relatives at the county seat. J. W. Everitt called on Monroe county friends last week. MINES AND RAILROADS. B. F. Davis, who purchased tho old Lehigh Valley station on tho upper track, has torn down the structure and will use the lumber for other purposes. The tracks are also being removed, the rails and sills of quite a distance al ready having been taken away by the j company, and soon nothing but the roadbed will remain of the original rail road into Freeland. The conference between tho officials and engineers of the Lackawanna Road, which began Friday, is still going on. About the only tiling discussed was the mileage system, but at 11.45 o'clock Saturday night no agreement had been reached and tho conference was ad journed until Monday morning. Miners' supplies are steadily advanc ing in price, but wages show no signs of moving upward. At the company store houses miners now pay 7 cents per foot for blasting barrels which a year ago sold at 3 cents a foot. Increasing business lias made it neces sary to convert tho men's waiting room of tho Lehigh Valley Railroad station at Juddo into a freight and baggage room. A now railroad station will be built at Whfto Haven by the Lehigh Valley Company. National Convention Hold. The thirty-sixth annual convention of the Irish Catholic Benevolent Union, of which St. Patrick's Beneficial Society, of Freeland, is branch No. 103, was bold last week at Philadelphia. One of the most important questions before tin; delegates wa* an amendment dropping the; first word from the title of tho or ganization. This was overwhelmingly defeated, even the German and colored delegates voting to keep tho name In tact. A resolution denouncing the pro posed alliance with Great Britain was unanimously adopted. The following officers were chosen: President, Daniel Duffy, St. Clair, Pa.; iirst vice president, J. F. Fogorty, Prov idence, It. I.; second vice president, Agnus Con very, Cauiden, N. J.; secre tary, John E. Davis, Philadelphia; treas urer, Thomas J. Foley, Gloucester, N. .1.; executive committee, Mary A. Casey, Richmond, Va.; N. J. Tierney, St. Mary's, Pa., and J. M. llaryey, of Blairsville, Pa. The Sunday Selling Crusade. Up to the time of going to press tin; TRIIIUNK was unable to learn whether or not the ministers who have interested themselves in tho Sunday closing crusade Intend to prosecute any of the people wlto disregarded the warnings given last week. The town differed nono from past Sundays, some mer chants and dealers having their places of business open for a few hours, while others remained closed as in the past. People who aro in sympathy with the closing movement predicted a few days ago that arrests would follow every violation of tho law, but none have yet been made. A Joddo Wife llcater. From Today's Huzieton Standard. In order to keep abreast of tho times the lively little town of Jeddo also comes to the front with a wife beater. His name Is Charles Bonner, and but for tin; arrival of Coal and Iron Policeman Gott lieb Filler there might be a more serious story to tell. Bonner was just wanning up when tho officer arrived. Consider able of tho household furniture had boon reduced to kindling wood and Bonner was in the act of administering a second beating to his wife when tho officer halted him. He was brought to the'lock up in this city and will be given a hear ing tliis morning. The residents of old Buck Mountain have again petitioned the government to reopen the postofficc at lliut place. How Minei-H' StrikoH Are Faring. The developments hi tho strike of the miners of the Susquehanna Coal Com pany at Nantlcoke and Glen Lyon have been few during the past few days. The merchants upon whom the blunt of the strike is falling have not yet com plained. but it is beyond their power to withstand the drain upon them many more weeks. Some of tho merchants believe that if a meeting of a committee from the two sides woi'u hold a settle ment could be reached. The employes have received their last month's pay. Unless work is soon re sumed the men will have no pay to receive in September. Some of tho men at the Itainlnn mine of the Temple Iron Company, the mine being situated at Duryea, aro again out. Olio of tho foremen had trouble with one of the miners and the miner was discharged. Then the shaft and tunnel men went out. Tho dispute is in regard to topping. There has been no settlement of tho dispute at tho Stovens colliery at Pitts ton. Tho miners on strike have pre pared another set of grievances to lie presented to tho colliery officials. It reiterates the request for an increase of 30 cents per car, which had previously boon refused, besides minor grievances in regard to rock and dockage. A number of Italian laborers employed at a stripping near Audenried struck on Friday for the ro-instatemont of a work inginan who left tho work some, weeks ago. Tho labor unions have refused to sanction this strike. Wrrant IHHIMMI for ttluperH. John A. .lones, of Parsons, has sworn j out a warrant charging Ids wife, and John Stevenson witli forgery, and the j police of Liverpool, England, have been notified by cable to arrest tho two upon their arrival. They sailed from New York last week. Jones is a well-to-do miner, and Stev enson boarded at Ids homo. A week ago today Jones, returning homo from work, found his house locked up and Ids wife and tho boarder missing. The next day lie discovered thoy had gone to New York. He was at a loss to know where they got tho necessary money, and it was not until Tuesday that lie discovered that they had borrowed tftJOO and given a mortgage upon Ids house, Stevenson, it is said, representing him self as Jones in tho transaction and sign ing Jones' name to the mortgage. Jones then went to New York and dis covered the couple had sailed for Liver pool. lie at once swore out a warrant, and if Stevenson and tho woman are arrested, Jones will ask for extradition papers and bring thorn back hero. Mrs. Jones is 45 years old and Stevenson about 35 years. Chief of Police Kline, of Wilkosbarre, yesterday received a cable message stating that Mrs. Alice A. Jones and George Stevenson wore arrostod upon tho arrival of tho Campania at Liver pool, England.

Patrick O'Dounell, employed as a miner in No. 5 mine, Joddo, was seri ously hurt by a fall of clod in bis breast late Saturday afternoon. After firing a blast Mr. O'Dounell returned to view the work when a largo chunk fell upon him, striking his head, where it indict ed a severe gash. It then struck his side, again cutting him, and from there; glanced along his leg, ripping his clothes in its doscent. He was brought to his homo at the corner of Ridge and Main streets, where his injuries were examined. His wounds are quite pain ful, but no dangerous turn Is expected. Milmay Circular Wanted.
