Hu/.le DirevtorK May Be (hated.
On petition of thirtcon citizens and
taxpayers of Hazle township for the
removal of the members of the school
board from oflice, the court on Friday
appointed Hon. C. \V. Kline as ex
aminer to visit and inquire into the
matters complained of and to report to
the court whether adequate cause ex
ists for the action prayed for.
The petitioners alleged that the mem
bers of the board—John Walsh, J. I).
Morgan, William Ncl on, John Rohland,
Thomas Hiukle and John Gallagher—
have wilfully neglected and refused to
provide suitable houses, rooms or build
ings in the school district for the ac
commodation of school children.
They state that a number of children
of school age who are desirous and anx
ious to acquire a common school educa
tion reside in that portion of tho terri
tory of the township contiguous to the
borough of West Ha/.leton, and who
have been excluded from the schools of
the borough unless the sum of $1.25 each
per month is paid for their tuition.
The nearest school of the township is at
Cranberry and is from one to two miles
distant from the homes of these chil
dren. The Cranberry school, it is also
alleged, is not suitable or safe, by rea
son of its being undermined and liable
to sink, and also because it is surround
ed by numerous deep and precipitous
mine holes.
The Ilazle township school board, it
is stated, has offered to exonerate the
parents of these children from the pay
ment of school tax, but in many cases
the amount is a trifle and they are un
able to pay for tuition.
George C. Farrar Cliowen to Teach.
An adjourned meeting of the borough '
school board was held Saturday evening
with all members present. Before pro
ceeding to ballot for the election of a
toacher, Secretary Trevaskis stated that
C. E. Edmunds desired to withdraw his
application. The remaining applicants
were: Georgo C. Farrar and Misses
Mary Dougherty, Mary Herron and
Mattie Brown.
One ballot only, the thirteenth in all,
was necessary to a choice, the members
voting as follows:
For Farrar—Bell, Everitt, Krommes,
Laubach, Trevaskis, Van Horn, 6.
For Miss Dougherty—Ferry, McCole,
Schaub, Kline, 4.
Bills from Butler, Sheldon & Co.,
books, $20.09, and Win. Williamson,
supplies, $6.38, total, $27.07, wore or
dered paid.
In the list of deaths of Philippine
soldiers, reported yesterday by General
Otis, the name of Ira Jones, of Com
pany E, Twenty-fourth infantry,
appears. It was believed at first that
this was the West Ilazloton printer of
that name, but as the regimeiit given is
composed exclusively of colored troops
the man is not the Ira known here.
The managers of the Jersey Central
Railroad have Issued an order that an
thracite coal shall bo used exclusively
on all of the road's engines. This will
probably induce the other railroads to
also discontinue the use of bituminous
coal for both passenger and freight and
coal traffic.
Boating is brisk at present on the
Lehigh canal. From 300 to 350 boats
are still cruising the stream. They are
in such demand that the owners of free
boats expect to make S3OO a piece from
now until the close of navigation early
in December.
John Brusak, the Drifton lad who
was convicted of placing an iron coupl
ing on the I). S. & S. Railroad track
near Jeddo last July and was committed
to Huntingdon reformatory, was taken
to that institution on Saturday by Sher
iff Harvey.
A number of Freeland people attend
ed the sermon last evening at the ser
vices of Forty Hours' Devotion at St.
Gabriel's church, Hazleton. It was
delivered by Rev. F. P. McNally, of
Wilkesbarre, who was formerly station
ed here.
The many friends of Mrs. Soloman
Bittner, of Jeddo, will be pleased to
learn that the report of her death is not
correct. Mrs. Bittner has been very
ill, but is much improved today and is
expected to recover.
Josiah Woodring, one of the promi
nent residents of Butler valley, was
stricken with paralysis on Saturday af
ternoon. It was for a time feared that
he could not recover, owing to his ad
vanced age.
Carbon County Commissioners O'Don
nell, Bauman and Koons entered bail in
the sum of S2OO each Saturday for ap
pearance at the January term of court
to answer to charge of malfeasance in
office.
The benefit hop given by St. Ann's
band Saturday evening was well attend
ed and a neat sum was realized and was
presented yesterday to the widow for
whom the affair was held.
The funeral of Kyatin Rymsha, who
died from injuries received in tho mines
last week, took place Saturday morning.
It was one of the largest Polish funerals
that has ever left town,
Situation at Nantivoke.
F rom the Wilkesbarre Record.
A reporter spent the greater part of
Friday at Nanticoke and Glen Lyon and
notwithstanding the fact that a half
hundred of tho striking miners were
interviewed, not much news could be
learned concerning tho strike situation.
Tho miners do not appear to know
much concerning the negotiations that
took placo between the olliciuls of the
company and tho committee of strikers.
Much depends on the outcome of the
next meeting. If it does not result
satisfactorily tho strike will be prolonged
indefinitely and there will be little hope
of settling it this winter.
The 400 mules from the collieries arc
grazing in the fields at Sheatown and
Glen Lyon, but it will soon become
necessary to place tliern in barns.
Miners still continue to leave Nanti
coke and Glen Lyon for the soft coal
regions and the Northwest. Societies
in Pittsburg and Minnesota are assisting
many to reach these places, there being
a demand at these points for laborers.
While at Nanticoke tho reporter met
a furniture broker who had just pur
chased the furniture of nine families,
who were compelled to dispose of it to
secure money with which to pay their
car fare to tho soft coal regions. The
furniture dealer stated that there is
much suffering among many of the
families, 901110 of them being in need of
the necessaries of lifo.
County OfticialH to lie Petitioned.
An important and decisive step has
been taken by the friends of the late M.
F. Corcoran, of Duryea, looking up the
apprehension of his murderers. It has
boon the current opinion of the friends
and acquaintances of that unfortunate
man that the county has not evinced
tho necessary amount of energy in its
efforts to apprehend the culprits, and
tiiat unless the public shows a dotermi
nation to have the matter prosecuted,
the affair will rest indefinitely.
The counsel for tho estate of Mr.
Corcoran has prepared petitions ad
dressed to the county commissioners,
and has placed them iu the hands of
persons in various parts of the county
for the signatures of tho citizens and
taxpayers, demanding that the com
missioners take definite and decisive
action immediately to secure the appre
hension of tho murderers of Mr. Cor
coran and to bring them to the bar of
justice.
Swallowed a Needle.
From the lluzleton Standard.
Considerable excitement reigned in
Heaver Brook Friday among the neigh
bors of Mrs. Peter Gallagher, when it
was learned that her eight-months-old
girl had swallowed a noedlo. The
needle was lodged in the child's throat
several hours, but through the skill of
the physician in charge it was removed.
It was a difficult task to locate the
needle, but far more difficult to extract
it, it first becoming necessary to make
an incision in the flesh. This accomp
lished and the head of tho needle locat
ed, it was carefully taken out by a pair
of (inn pincers. The little child, though
having suffered much from the singular
accident, was almost as woll as over last
evoning.
Suspected of Postoftice Robberies.
What inay prove to be an important
arrest, was made on Saturday by Chief
of Police Richards, of West Pittston,
In a tramp who arrived in that place on
a freight train. He was searched and
more than $35 worth of postage stamps
were found on his person. Money also
was found in his shoes, hats and other
parts of his clothing, lie gave his name
as Dolan and said that he hailed from
New York. It is thought he may know
something of the numerous postoffice
robberies which have occurred in this
state recently.
Paymaster at Upper Leliigli.
J. It. Laubach, of town, has accepted
tho position of paymaster at Upper Le
high. mado vacant by tho removal of 11.
B. Price to Philadelphia, and will enter
upon his duties about November 1. Mr.
Laubach is receiving the congratula
tions of his friends upon his advance
ment. lie will dispose of his bakery
and confectionery business in tho near
future.

COAL TRADE IS BOOMING.
LARGE CITIES ARE EXPERIENCING
ALMOST A FAMINE.
Companies* Have More Orders Than They
Can Fill at the Prevailing High Prices,
lint Miners' Wages Are Far Itelow
Just Figures.
So strong is the demand for anthra
cite coal in Philadelphia that the Le
high Valley Coal Company has refused
to take any more orders for delivery of
coal until some of those they have are
filled. Other companies have also re
fused orders in Philadelphia and as the
result of this condition dealers are com
manding their own prices. There has
not been such a demand for anthracite
since tho memorable blizzard of last
winter.
The scarcity of coal In Philadelphia is
remarkable. The condition is such that
the situation practically amounts to a
famine. There Ui hurrying and scurry
ing on the part of the big consumers,
for the purpose of getting enough coal
to supply their immediate wants. The
shippers are put at their wit's end in
getting cars enough to handle the pro
duct of tho mines, but work as they will
many of them have been compelled to
shut down three or four days at a time.
With the present lack of cars, it will be
utterly impossible for the shippers to
supply tho general trade. The prices
continues very strong, and dealers are
able to get their own figures for what
ever they have on hand.
Notwithstanding the great prosperty
which tho mine owners and carrying
companies are enjoying, they show but
little if any disposition to grant the
mine-workers any share of their increas
ed profits. The ingratitude of the em
ployers is not passing unnoticed, how
over, and before long, if all reports are
true, the prosperity of the coal corpora
tions will be brought to a sudden end.
The anthracite shipments to the west
continue extremely heavy, and shippers
are rushing coal forward as fast as possi
ble. The chartering of a large number
of big carriers by the ore interests prom
ises to take out of tho trade a large
number of vessels which were relied
upon to assist in moving the heavy ship
ments contemplated.
Tho Reading complains that the
movement of their coal east and south
is hampered by lack of vessels, despite
tin; large number of barges they control,
and us they have delayed shipping west
011 account of the high lake freight
rates until the present time, it will re
quire a large proportion of their output
to be sent there before navigation is
closed by ice.
Mitchell's All Star Flayers.
The above players will be with us all

Our Ever Untiring Eiforts
To Do Better.
To give our patrons the biggest pos
sible values for their money, is the key
of our great success. We are not satis
lied to stand still, but are forever forg
ing ahead, forever trying to make the
values bigger and the prices smaller.
We are continually scouring the mar
kets for the very best of dependable
merchandise, and buying, as wo do, in
immense quantities, we are enabled to
soil clothing as cheap as the average
merchant can buy.
This season we have been more active
than ever. Our grand array of Clothing
for Men, Hoys and Children proves that
it is the greatest assortment that has
ever been shown to the purchasing pub
lic of this town. And we have been
farsighted enough to anticipate the ad
vance all the clothing merchants are
complaining about and placed our
orders much earlier than usual. Wo
can, therefore, sell clothing at the old
prices, or make you a suit or overcoat
cheaper than any other tailor in the
region.
