Read - the - Tribune. FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1899. Cantor Morgan Winn Hin Suit. Aftor months of fighting in the church and in the courts as to the right of the pastor to preacli in English, the trouble at the First Welsh Methodist church of Wilkcsbarre was settled on Monday by the decision of Judgo Woodward, who handed down a lengthy decision in favor of Pastor Morgan. The court says in conclusion that: "The supreme object of tho creation of tho board of trustees and their lirst duty is to keep tho church in condition to be used by tho ministers regularly appointed. Any personal or general dissatisfaction that may exist in the congregation with any preacher reg ularly appointed will not authorize the board to close the doors against him or to interfere with him in any way in the performance of his duties. In a word, tho right of the pastor to occupy the house of worship is socured to him by i tho fundamental law of tho church, and if the people cannot hear him with good conscience they can only absent them selves and withhold support, and this at their own risk, until a lawful change is made." Petrified Head in a Mine. In the Cameron colliery, Shamokin, George Miller, a minor, found the petri fied head of an Indian. Tho discovery is the most important to date of the many fossil and vegetable curiosities found in anthracite coal beds. The head was pried from a mass of rock and was first thought to be no more than a sulphur ball. Upon close examination a minor saw tho resemblance to a face. Tho rock weighing forty pounds was scraped clean, when tho perfect image of tho savage was developed. When the head was taken to tho sur face search was made for the rest of the Indian, but nothing more has been found, although many miners are cer tain that tho arms and body and legs will shortly bo forthcoming. Tho jaw bones of tho head just dis covered are very heavy, check bones prominent and far apart, while the nose is small and the back of the head fiat and broad. Plot to llreuk Jatl. A timely discovery prevented a wholesome jail delivery and probably tho murder of George Solders, assistant warden, and Michael Shoneman, turn key, at tho Schuylkill county prison. Three prisoners, it is said, were to as sault them in the corridor, tako the koys and escapo. Tho alleged scheme is at tributed to .7. E. Cholly, alias James Hell, colored; Frank Miller, alias Evan Kirlin, and George Clark, alias tho Buf falo Star, sorving long terms of impris onment. Tho finding of two heavy blackjacks, a dangerous-looking knife and a long, sharp saw, revealed the plot. Cholly made a confession and said it was his intontion to kill the jail ollicials. Herbert McKcover, 23 years old, lios at his homo in Summit Ilill at the point of death, as tho result of a quarrel with Charles Johnson, colored. Seeing that he was being beaten, tho latter drew a knife and plunged it four times into his opponent's body, two of tho knife thrusts narrowly missing his heart. Johnson then made iiis escape. A fow days ago a bear was soon on the Butler Mountain, Butler valley, and a number of hunters followed his trail. The bear escaped, but as the animal is supposed to bo in tho vicinity of Butler yet, those who are aftor him have not given up hopes of capturing or killing him.— Pliin Speaker. At tho coming eloction, on Tuesday, November 7, Pottsvillc will vote on the question of a city charter, McAdoo on borough ownership of an electric light plant, and Tamaqua on the question of increasing tho borough indebtedness $50,000 for the purpose of improving the water system. The case of Patrick Dowd, of Hazle ton, against tho D. S. & S. Railroad Company for injuries sustained in a col lision between a trolley car and a I). S. & S. train at Roan Junction, which was to have been tried in court on Tuesday, was continued until tho next term of court. Four criminals were taken to the Eastern penitontlary from this county on Monday. They are Charles Varger son, manslaughter, ton years; Frank Newhart, murder in tho second degree, twentyears; Joseph Sabrinskie, lar ceny, three years, and Charles Hetzol, forgery, one year. Charles Kuobler, Richard Stout and Frank Thompson, tho three men re cently arrested in tho upper end of the county on the chargo of making and passing counterfeit money, wore taken from the county jail by Marshal Lowry to Pittsburg for trial in tho United States courts. The court has handed down an order for the drawing of jurors in lt)00. The court designates 2,000 as the number of qualified persons to be selected to serve as jurors in the several courts, this being the same number of names select ed and placed in the jury wheol in the year 1809. Dr. Went/.'H Fast Hordes. From the Seranton Tribune. Hal B. and Fanny Dillard, Dr. J. L. YVontz's two speedy racers, arrived in this city from Lexington, Ky., on Sat urday night. They were brought here under the charge of a groom, the doc tor himself haviug arrived last week.

From I'hiludclphiu Nortli American. Josiah It. Adams is tho Republican nominee for superior court. Josiah R. Adams is unfit to be a judge, because:— Ho is not a man of good character, lie has been the profiting associate of swindlors. Ho was the attorney for the swindling Granito State Provident Association, which plundered thousands of Pennsyl vanians. He is now, and has beon for threo years, the receiver of its Pennsyl vania assets, lias never paid the de frauded shareholders a dollar, or even filed an account. He was prosidenfc of the American Investors' Trust, organized by the same sharpers to do the same kind of swin dling business as tho Granite State. lie was prcsidont of tho American Invostors' Company, another robbilig offspring of tho Granite State. Tho charter of tho Amorican Inves tors' Company, of which Adams was president, was revoked for fraud by tho legislature of Rhode Island. Anthracite In the Navy. At tho meeting of the Seranton Board of Trade on Monday evoning the ques tion of using anthracite coal in United Statos navy instead of bituminous was brought up. The following resolution was presented: That tho National Board of Trade re spectfully urges upon the navy depart ment tho necessity of constructing and equipping all our ships of war, for the exclusive uso of American coal, for the following reasons: First—lts smokeless quality, tho ab surdity of using a coal tho combustion of which advertises tho presence of tho ship for miles beyond the ordinary vision of tho ship is too patent for argument. If tho uso of smokeless powder has become an absolute neces sity, equally so is tho uso of smokeless coal. Second—lts absolute safety from spontaneous combustion. Forgiven AcctiHed Wife. John A. Jones, whose wifo left Par sons nine weeks ago with George Stephenson and fled witli him to Eng land after forging tho husband's signa ture, it is alleged, to a mortgage and raising S6OO on it, has decided to forgive her.

Full of Ilock Caught Kyateu Kyinslia, of Freeland, lleneath It and He Hied a Few Hours I.ater from tlie Filed* of His Injuries. Kyaton Rymsha, of West . Chestnut street, died yosterday from Injuries re ceived in C. li. Marklo & Co.'s colliery at Highland. With his two sons, Mr. Ryuisha was employed in robbing pillars, a very dangerous occupation where large veins exist. All three began work yesterday, the father near the face of the breast and the sons at the platform. Owing to the extreme height of the roof, about thirty-Hve feet, it was im possible to sound it, to ascertain its condition. Believing it to lie safe, Mr. Rymsha began work when suddenly a tremend ous mass of rock fell from above, and a considerable quantity droppud on and about the miner. The unfortunate man was pinned beneath the mass and his fcllow-iuen from adjoining breasts had to work quite a while In great peril beforo he was extricated. Ho was immediately taken to his home, where physicians worked faith fully to lesson Ills sufferings, but tho injuries wero too great for their skill and he expired shortly bofore noon. It was found that ono leg was broken In sovoral places, the foot of the otheT log was terribly lacerated, his body was bruised, and the skull was fractured to such an extent that pieces of bone had entered the brain. Tho sons escaped death by jumping to a place of safety when the fall of rock occurred. Mr. Rymsha was a resident of tho town and vicinity for many years. He was proprietor of ono of tho two saloons 011 the Ilill and was quite prominent in Polish circles. He is survived by a family of ten children.

"Tim Philadelphia Detective" was the title of the play presented at tho opera house last evening by Mitchell's All Star Players and they rendered it in such away that there was no possibility of a criticism being made.
