Couldn't Exhibit Fight Picture*. The first disappointment givon the patrons of the Grand opera house this season occurred on Saturday evening, when the proposed exhibition of the Jeffrios-Sharkay contest pictures had to be declared off on account of a lack of electric power of the kind required to run the big machine which reproduces the fight. To run the five horse-power motor of the machine a current of 110 direct volts is nece.*sary, and the system hero is what is known as the alternating, the opposite of what was wanted. The difference was not discovered until the picture managers arrived Saturday afternoon, after coming from Lebanon. Arrangements were then made with the Lehigh Traction Company to supply the current, but when it was found that the extra traffic on the road Saturday night would cause a heavy fluctuation in the current it was decided by the several electrical experts who were gathered to find away out of the dilemma that the exhibition would be most unsatisfactory under the circumstances, and tho con tract was therefore mutually annulled. The inability to show the pictures was a severe disappointment to many people. The Andrews Opera Company sang the English opera "Martha" to a small audieuce on Thursday evening. The rendition of this romantic piece was admirable and gave satisfaction to every person who was present. The company is an unusually strong one and has several talented people on its roll. The lack of appreciation shown by the musical people of town, as attested by the poor attendance, does not auger well for future attractions of this kind. Hoyt's "A Day and a Night," another attraction that has pleased thousands In all tho large cities of the country, was given on Friday evening before an audience considerably smaller than the show deserved. It is played by a good company. Entertainment at Highland. The first entertainment of tho High land Social Club will be held at High land school house on Friday evening.

Mr. Frlgerlo has been superintendent of tho mill since It began operations and Is highly esteemed by his employers and tho employes. It Is stated that ho has formed a partnership with l'etor Ma gagna, of town, and will operate the proposed silk mill at White Haven. The new plant will employe over 100 girls, and as Mr. Frigerio understands the silk business thoroughly the mill ought to be a success. Foreman Gus Henschel has been ap pointed as successor to Superintendent Frlgerlo, and Austin McEueary lias been promoted to foreman. Married at Ha/.le Urook. Alvin Norman Rickert and Miss Anna Isabella Stevens, both of Hazle Ilrook, were uulted in marriage at 7.50 o'clock on Saturday evening at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joel F. Stevens. Tho ceremony was performed by lUv. J. B. Kerschnor, of Freeland. John F. Stevens, Jr., a brother of the bride, was groomsman, and Miss Cora M. Keller was brides maid. The marriage was witnessed by a large number of frionds of tho con tracting parties and congratulations wore showered in plenty on the happy couple.

Death Lint Still Growing;. Mrs. 'John Zeistloft, of Washington street, died suddenly yesterday. After dinner she loft home, with her husband and infant child, to spend the afternoon with her friend, Mrs. Calvin D. Rohr bach, on South street. About the time she arrived at the latter's home she complained of feeling ill. Finding no relief after a short rest at her destina tion, her relatives summoned Dr. Rrackett, and later Dr. Neale, but the woman sank very rapidly and in an in credibly short spaco of time she, who half an hour before walked tho streets apparently healthy, lay cold in death. The physicians pronouticed her malady heart failure. Mrs. Mary Zeistloft was a woman who was rospected by her neighbors and her sudden death came as a shock to her many friends. She was aged 34 years, 11 months and 24 days. She was the daughter of Henry and Lizzie Deisen rolh. of Hazleton. She was confirmed by Rev. J. M. Cleiuens at St. John's church, Butler, on April 11, 1879, and was married to Mr. Zeistloft by Rev. T. Derr on September 19, 1885. Mrs. Zeist loft was the tuuther of six children, of which number four preceded her ii death. Of the surviving children one i> aged 7 years and the other G months. Tho funeral will take place YVetlne day afternoon. The friends ami rcJ'f tives will meet at her late residence ii j 1.30 o'clock, at which time the eorl go will proceed to St. John's ' church, where funeral services wil bo; conducted by Rev. J. R. Kerscher. fhe interment will be made in T rot and ; cemetery. Mrs. Cormac Keeney, a former ?Tosi dent of Eckley, died on Friday tmlning of heart failure at her home in \ llkes barre. Thursday she seemed n tbo best of health and attended the iinerul of a neighbor. On the way lo the church she was overcome and was re moved to her home. During tlfc night she rallied and next morning wi mueh improved. Five minutes befit t death, however, there was another attick. and the end came as noted. The list symp tom of heart trouble appeared a :w months ago, when Mrs. Keeiuy attend ed the funeral at Frooiand jf John J. Boyle, her nephew, who wa* a United States soldier and who ded in the Philippines. Decoasod is survived by a husband and the following children: Bridget and Patrick, Philadelphia: Annie, Ed ward and John, Wllkcst/arre; Mary, Eberv&le, and Rose, Eckliy. Mrs. Pat rick O'Donnell, of Drifon, and Mrs. Patrick Early, of Beavr Meadow, are sisters to the deceased The funeral took place this morning with a requiem mass in Holy Saviour cjurch.

Nicholas Guiney, father of ex-County , Commissioner John Guiney, died on ; Saturday at Wilkcsbarre, agod 80 years. Charles Gassier, aged 71 years, one of Weatherly's prominent citizens, died from pneumonia Saturday night. Church Census Figures. The recent church censuses of Phila delphia and Pittsburg showed that Cath olics were in the majority in the two largest cities of the state. The returns of canvassers in the interior towns, how ever, give several Protestant churches the greatest number of adherents. In Easton and the contiguous towns the Lutherans are largely in the load, and this status of faith is also found in York county and thereabout. In Central Pennsylvania the Presbyterian and Methodist Churches appear to have the most followers, and these denominations are also strong in the northwest tier of the state. A Boycott at Sliainokin. The Central Labor Union, of Shamo kin, has declared a boycott against sixteen merchants for refusing to give their clerks shorter hours. Circulars have been distributed, claiming that the demand of the clerks' union is a just one, and urgently requesting each and every brother workingman to uphold and assist them by purchasing goods from merchants who display the union card and close their stores at 0 o'clock. The boycotted merchants have also formed an association and propose prose cuting the union for conspiracy. DEMOCRATIC POW WOW. AN EFFORT MADE TO PATCH UP THE FACTIONAL DIFFERENCES. Lenalut'i anil Garinan Ware Represented at the/Conference by Their Lieutenants. Nairn* Suggested for the Several Office* to Be/Filled Next November. From tno WJikesburre Record. A sip re of the leading politicians from tho l vro factions of the Democracy held a conference yesterday and made the first/steps about bringing the two ele ments or the party into harmonious re lation with each other so as to be able to /resent a united front at the coming election. fhere are several nice berths to be this fall and the neutral members o the disrupted organization realize ttfit. with tho party torn with factional stfrife they cannot hope to land one can lidate safely save jury commissioner, and even this may be lost to the Prohi bitionists or the Socialists if the bitter leeling now existing is allowed to con tinue unchecked. A Moses is needed to lead them, but his appearance has boon waited for in vain, so the neutrals are endeavoring to do the next best thing, have the Hon and tho lamb coo to each other from the roost. This was the object of yesterday's conference and it was far more success ful than was anticipated by its pro moters. Although Lenahan and Gar man were absent their chief lieutenants were on hand with authority to speak. There were also present many of the prospective candidates. Attorney E. F. McGovern presided. Tho names of the following 'candi dates for the various offices to be filled at the coming olcction were presented for consideration: Congress, Hon. S. W. Davonport; judge, Judge Woodward. E. F. McGovern and E. V. Jackson; prothonotary Raul Dasch; district at torney, W. n. Gillespie, of Rittston; Martin Mulhall, of this city, and James Shea, of this city; clerk of the courts, Frank Broekway, of Reach Haven; sen ator, W. I. Hlbbs and W. H. Hines; jury commissioner, M. 11. Farrell, of Nanticoke, and John Hart, of Rittston. After considerable discussion and much vigorous talking of a regular Democratic flavor it was agreed that a ticket composed as follows would be satisfactory to both wings: Congress, S. W. Davonport; senator, W. I. Hlbbs; judge, Judge Woodward, E. V. Jack son or E. F. McGovern; district attor ney, Shea, Gillespie or Mulhall; clerk of the courts. Broekway; jury commis sioner, M. 11. Farrell. The only trouble about the slate is that there are just double the number of candidates that there are offices and the result will no doubt be the precipi tation of the customary faction fight, without which a Democratic convention would not seem natural. Bold Work of Masked Men. Friday morning at an oarly hour four masked men enlerod the hotel of Michael Brown, In tho village of Dul'ont, three miles north of l'ittston, and surprising the members of the family, securely gagged aud tied them In tho rooms they woro found asleep. Brown was awakened beforo they bod reached his sleeping apartment and wade a heroic effort to protect his homo, but was struck down by a blow with a sharp instru ment and badly used up. He was then secured the same as the others, and the robbers tlion leisurely ransacked the house and took everything of value that could be conveniently carried off, in cluding cash and liquor and cigars In the barroom. Brown was nearly dead when some of tho neighbors discovered what had hap pened. No trace as yet has been ob tained of the whereabouts of this dangerous gang. They are supposed to be the sauio party that committed the same kind of an outrage in Carbondale on the previous night. Mayor's Fine. Must lie Paid. City Solicitor Mcllugh, of YVilkes barro, secured an important victory for that city last week, when lie obtained a decision in the matter of appeals from the payment of fines Imposed by the mayor. The case that was made a test was that of Mrs. Stewart, who was fined 81,000 by Mayor Nichols for leas ing premises to keepers of Immoral re sorts. The customary appeal was taken. Judge Lynch decides that there is no ground for appeal and the line must be paid. The Stewart woman is worth nearly 8100,000. The city solicitor will now proceed to collect all old standing lines, which will aggregate a consider able sum for the city. Flrnt Defenders' Reunion, The annual reunion of the First De fenders' Association was held last week at Pottsville. Thirty-nine years have elapsed since tho live militia companies of Reading, Allentown, Pottsville and Lewlstown passed through Baltimore in response to President Lincoln's call, and yet there still remains 221 survivors of that couragoous vanguard of 481 men. Considering the mortality Incidental to battle aud exposure, it is singular that so many of the First Dofendsrs still answer roll-call. Dry Goods, Groceries and Provisions.

The famous Ivnorr-YVintorsteen dyna mite case was revived In tho Columbia county courts Friday, after having been unaired for over a year. It was In an argument on the petition for a rule to show cause why the receiver of tho de funct Bloomsburg Iron Compauy should not make distribution of certain funds In his hands. It appears that Mrs. Mary Knorr, tho mothor of one of the defendants In that case, had assigned 201 shares of the stock of that company to her attorneys, James Scarlet and Levi Waller. Tho receiver is holding 810,- 000 awaiting the court's decision as to the proper partios to ho given the money. Attorneys Scarlet and Waller are now seeking to secure their apportionment of the money. L. S. YVintersteen, the principal In that celebratod case, tiled a sworn state ment through his attorney, Colonel John G. Freeze, that Mrs. Knorr never owned the stock, and that sho could not assign it, he having the certificates iu Ills pos session. Attorney Scarlet contended that the books were the first proof of the ownership of the stock, and added: "YY'o acknowledge that L. S. YYTnter stoen tried to gain possession of those 201 shares of the stock of the Blooms burg Iron Company and It was his fail ure to obtain them that made him tho defondant ill the caso of the common wealth vorsus YVintersteen." Mr. YVintorstcen swore to tho state ment presented to tho court before a YVllkosbarro alderman. Tho stockholders of tho Philadelphia Timet have been called to moel for the consideration of a proposition for the purchase of the paper.
