"If 1 had a saw, a tile, anything—" he moaned, as lie looked at the solid bars across the solitary window. Then a thought struck him. His lace brightened, like a Cripple Creek conflagration. Ituuidly running over his supply of collars, which had just come from the laundry, he selected one fitted to his purpose. Five minutes later the great middle bar of the window, dexterously severed by the saw like edge of the laundered collar, fell apurt. He Was Free.

RESUME WORK ON MONDAY Union Officials Have Ended the Big Strike. Mine Workers Advised to Make Demands at Once Upon Operators to Com ply With Pay Law. President Mitchell last evening issued the expected order which declares off the strike in the .anthracite coal region. Monday next is the day set for the order to take effect. The announcement that a sufficient number of operators have complied with the demands of the Seranton convention to warrant the union officials ending the strike was received with unbounded en thusiasm throughout the coal (inlds. Those operators who have not yot fallen in lino are expected to do so before Monday, otherwise the battle will be transferred from the United Mine Workers to the American Federation of Labor, which will fight tho dissenters with all the financial and other re sources at its command. Tho operators who up to last night had not complied with the demands of the strikers were as follows: Sus quehanna Coal Company, Wyoming valley; William Penn Mine, Schuylkill county; Summit Branch Company, Ly kens district; Mineral Mining Company, Shatnokin district; Union Coal Company, Mt. Carrael; G. B. Markle & Co., Jeddo; John Jennyn, Seranton; Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company, Panther Creek district; Coxe Bros. & Co., Drifton, and the Lehigh and Wilkesbarro Company. Three of tho companlos which had not assented operate in this region. The Lehigh and Wilkesbarre Company had agreed to pay the advance, but did not promise to abolish the sliding scale. The Drifton corporation had not assent ed to tho demand that the increase be paid until April 1 next. Markle & Co. had not posted notices of any kind. THE OFFICIAL ORDER. The official order declaring the strike at an end is signed by the national president and secretary, the members of the national executive board and tho presidents and secretaries of the an thracite districts of the United Mine Workers. It congratulates the strikers upon the victory won, and calls their attention to the operators' agreement to consider all other grievances which may be presented. 11l connection with the latter, the union officials advise the men to make immediate demands on their employers for their compliance with tho semi monthly pay law. The strikers are also cautioned of the danger of neglecting their duty to tho organization. They are asked to con tinue their activity as members and stand united, otherwise the advantages they have gained may soon be lost. SEMI-MONTHLY PAY LAW. The aim of the United Mine Workers to bring about a compliance by tho operators with tho seini-monthly pay law should roceive tho hearty and united support of all people in tho an thracite region. It is tho law of tho state and there never was a more op portune time than the present to insist upon its enforcement. To the business people, in particular, it is important. If the law is not obeyed tho majority of tho men who have been idle will not receive any pay worth considering until December 22 next. The semi-monthly pay law fosters a spirit of economy and honesty among the workers, it maintains trade at a normal standard all through the month, it gives men their earnings two or three weeks sooner than under the present system, in brief, it is only just to all concerned, but above all, it is tho law of Pennsylvania, and every citizen should assist in having the law upheld T.

Up to 2 o'clock this afternoon no new notices had been posted at Drifton, nor could any information be obtained con cerning tho intentions of Coxe Bros. & Co. At Jeddo office of Markle & Co. no notice has yot boon posted, and no por son authorized to speak on tho subject of an increase by this company could be reached by telephone. The Lehigh and Wilkesbarro Com pany, contrary to expectations, had not given notice at its South Side collieries at 2.30 o'clock that it will abolish the sliding scale. and obeyed, regardless of who the law defier may be. LARGE LABOR MEETING. One of tho largest meetings held in town during the strike took place Wed nesday evening at tho Grand opera house. W. H. Fairiey, of Alabama, a member of tho national executive hoard of the United Mine Workers, delivered one of the best labor spoeches heard in towu for some time. lie was followed by "Mother" Mary Jones, who spoke for over an hour. Considerable en thusiasm was displayed by tho large audionco. FOUR HELD WITHOUT BAIL. Thomas liarter, George Konsbtck, Michael Callahan and Jacob Reitmeyer, four of the Oneida strikers arrested and charged with assault and battery and intent to kill during the riot at Oneida were held without bail by tho court at Pottsville yesterday. The other seven men were held under SI,OOO hail each on the charge of assault and battery with intent to kill. They were also placed under SI,OOO bail each on tho charge of inciting riot. CARPENTERS ATTACKED. A Schuylkill trolley car carrying carpenters en route to St. Nicholas colliery was held up in Mahanoy City on Wednesday. The carpenters had taken breaker boys' places and assisted to wash coal at Boston Run. Several were struck, but not severely injured. Sheriff Toole caused the arrest of Charles Elliott, charged with connec tion with the raid, but Squire May dis charged him for want of evidence. An Important Case. August Ivollert Is the defendunt in an important case which was heard yester day before Squire Shovlinand continued until Tuesday next. He is charged by Health Officer Ward with removing a contagious dlseaso placard from his residence at Washington and Main streets, where a case of diphtheria ex isted some time ago. Attorney Carr represents the prose cutor and Attorney Stroll tho defendant. On behalf of Mr. Kellert It is claimed that the Board of Health is not a legally organized body, as its president also holds the office of tax collector, and that this makes its actions void. This construction of the law is denied by the prosecution, and to give the attorneys and justice an opportunity to more fully examine the law the hearing was con tinued. Preparing for Business. The Central Pennsylvania Brewing Company has contracted with L. H. Lentz to erect a large ice house, stable and wagon shed for the use of its Free land branch. The buildings will be located on the rear of the lot of Mrs. Jane DeFoy, on Washington street, and work will be commenced in a short while. Manager W. J. Morgan is pushing the business hard in Freeland and the com pany's sales this year are larger than ever before. Will Probated. The will of the late Thos. E. Duvies was probated today before Deputy Roglster of Wills Hiram P. Kuntz. The deceased bequcthed all his property to his wife during her life, except some minor articles which he left to hfs grandchildren. Upon the death of Mrs. Davies, which occurred two days after his own, the property is to bo divided among the surviving son and daughters. William E. Davies, of Drifton, Is named as executor. Held Up Last Night. Frank Weidner, of Pine street, strip ping foreman at Buck Mountain, was stopped on the hill between Eckley and Highland by several unknown men while driving home last evening.

The mass meeting conducted by the Republicans 011 Wednesday evening at Valines' opera house was well attended, but by far the larger number present was composed of people from Hazleton and vicinity. The absence of Freeland voters was remarkable and caused no little comment. District Chairman H. P. Kuntz presided and introduced the speakers. J. H. James, Esq., of Pottsville, de livered the first address. He spoke on the benefits of Republicanism in general, but as he is not an orator he failed to arouse any interest in his remarks. Hon. H. W. Palmer, candidate for congress, followed Mr. James. He con fined himself principally to the trust question, claiming that the trusts are bred in Democratic states and that his party is not responsible for their evil doings. He then took up the remedy offered against trusts by Colonel liryan, that of placing all articles manufactured by trusts on the free list, and spoke of the evil effect this would have upon American labor. The questions of im perialism and expansion were also touched upon. In closing Mr. Palmer referred to the fact that he is a candi date and that 110 is not owned by cor porations, but that he owns himself. George S. Ferris, Esq., candidate for judge, merely mentioned the fact that he desires the support of the voters and will fulfill the duties of the office to tho best of his ability. Wm. Reigby, of New York, was the last speaker, and his peculiar actions before be began caused a ripple of inter est to appear among the audience. Ho took Imperialism and expansion for his subjects, but did not create tho sensa tion which many wore led to expect. The county and legislative candidates were present on tho stage, but through some oversight none of the speakers referred to them In any way further than advising the voters to support the ontlre ticket. A free trolley ride from Hazleton and surrounding towns induced the Republi can club of that city and West Hazleton and Jeanesvllle clubs to come here. Led by tho Citizens' band and two drum corps the visitors paraded Washington, Ridge and Centre streets before the meeting and made a good appearance. Lanterns, torches and transparencies were carried. Near the Lehigh valley depot two of the transparencies were badly disfigured by stones, and later two bass drum heads were broken by missiles which were thrown at tho marchers. This work was severely condemned by the people of town, and if the identity of the guilty persons can be established it is said they will be prosecuted. Last evoning's Hazleton Plain Speak er says: "About seventy-five members of tho Republican club were not fur nished transportation to Freeland last night and upon returning to their head quarters they cheered lustily for liryan. showing their disgust at being left be hind. Company A decided to disband and form a liryan Club. Nearly every mem ber broke his lantern. The matter will likely be patched up tomorrow." Married Yesterday. Herbert W. Fritz, of Rockport, and Miss Ellen P. Stewart, of Freeland, were married yesterday morning at 11.15 o'clock at the residence of the bride's mother, Mrs. It. A. Dodson, on Walnut street. The ceremony was performed by Rev. W. W. Harttnan, pastor of the Park M. E. church. Edw. C. Ebert, of Weatherly, acted as groomsman, and Miss Clara Marks, of Sandy Run, was bridesmaid. Over 100 invited guests witnessed the ceremony and tendered many wishes of success and prosperity to tho happy couple. A collation consisting of sandwiches, coffee, cake and fruits, was served to all present. During the afternoon Mr. and Mrs. Fritz departed for their resi dence near Rockport, where they have made their home. Their departure from town attracted no little attention, as their carriage was sprinkled with several pecks of rice, and huge placards, the work of joking friends, adorned the sides and roar, containing such inscrip tion as "There is only one girl and I've got her," and "We have just been married." Mrs. Fritz was one of Freeland's most estimable young ladies. For some years past she taught school in Foster town ship, and her qualifications won her the regard of her pupils and their parents wherever she was stationed. Mr. Fritz is a well-known young man of his sec tion and is a teacher at Rockport school. The esteem in which the frionds of the family held the bride was shown by the very large number of handsome and useful presents received by her. The list embraces almost every article re quired in a household. LOCAL NOTES WRITTEN UP Short Items of Interest to All Readers.

The court has decided that tho Demo cratic county convention failed to nomi nate a judicial candidate, which ex plains the appearance of my name on the ballot, in the column under the head of "Citizens' l'arty." Make your mark opposite name, T. R. Martin—[X|. In that convention 1 had a majority of the delegates, but political intrigue prevented them from nominating the candidate of their choico. As I owe no allegiance to any political faction, boss or bosses, therefore the people have tho opportunity, at this time, of electing a judge independent uf all political influoncc. The people demand the prompt trans action of tho business of the courts, and protection by the court, from the brow beating and bullying of counsel, where by suitors are discouraged from seuking their rights and witnesses attending in response to the summons of the court are unnecessarily humiliated. To promote the interests of justice, It is tlie duty of tho court and members of the bar, not only to be manly and court eons toward each other, but likewise to havo duo regard and consideration for others having.business with the courts. When you go to the polls on election day, vote with that same independence and fearlessness which 1 shall exercise on the bench if elected judge. Being one of the great body of people. I fully assent to the foregoing demands of the people, and if in your judgment I am doserving of, and'fitted for the office of judge, I shall appreciate and be obliged to you for your support. Vevy respectfully, T. R. Martin. $l5O PER YEAR TOP COAT WEATHER! This is great weather for Top Coats.
