FREELAND, PA., AUGUST 5. 1901.
ROUND THE REGION.
The miners and laborers at the Belle
vue colliery Scranton, owned by the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
Company, struck becauso of the order
of Foreman Lewis that their committee
should not take up the union working
cards of tho men as they went to work.
About 500 men and boys are Idle. Tills
strike is similar to those at tho Wood
ward, near Kingston, and at Raub's
mine in Luzerne. The stand taken
by the foremen may result In a tie-up at
all the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western collieries.
After being lost in the Btirnside mine,
Sharnokln, during which they walked
fifteen miles, Alfred Jones and Freder
ick Ileizeman lay in a ditch, exhausted
and ready to die. A rescuing party ar
rived in time and took them to the sur
face. They were working when a big
fall of rock blocked their exit. Jones ;
and his companion climbed into an old
breast. They were not acquainted with
the passageway and they soon lost their |
bearings and plunged deeper into the \
recesses of the mammoth mine.
The Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western Company will probably be ob
liged to abandon its Jersey mine at Ply
mouth owing to the lire which has raged
in it for months. It Is practically im
possible to flood tho mine, as it is higher
than the Nottingham, Avondale and No.
0 collieries and all these would have to
be filled with water before the fire in i
the levels of tho Jersey mine could be !
reached.
All members of the Clerks' Association
are requested to be present at the reg
ular meeting at 8 o'clock this evening.
The men employed by tho Scranton
Railway Company met early this morn
ing and decided to strike at noon unless
P. J. Shea, the president of their union,
was reinstated. Shea had been sus
pended for an alleged infraction of rules.
A committee of tho men went to Mana
ger Frank Sillimau and reached a settle
ment by which Shea will return to work
and there will be no strike.
Louis N. Ilammerling,of Wilkesbarre,
has been directed by James E. Roder
ick, of tho Bureau of Mines, to trans
late the anthracite coal mine laws of
this state into Swedish, Gorman, Hun
garian, Polish, Austrian, Slavish,
Lithuanian and Italian.
Burton, son of Samuel Sorber, of
Beach Haven, Salem township, 11 years
old, was crushed to death under a
threshing engine. While attempting to
jump on the engine he slipped and fell,
the wheels passing over his neck and
causing instant death.
Men employed repairing the public
roads in Schuylkill and the adjoining
counties, where the Philadelphia and
Reading Coal and Iron Company have
the contract to keep the thoroughfares
in repair, have made a demand for
higher wages.
Just at a time when the people of the
Wyoming valley were congratulating
themselves upon the disappearance
of smallpox comes word that another
case has developed in Plymouth. Tho
victim U a three-year-old daughter of
Andrew Sheluski.
Thomas Ilillibush, aged 17, of Maha
noy City, wn? stubbed and badly wound
ed while trying to separate two lighting
companions at a picnic Saturday night.
John Schmidt, his alleged assailant, is
in jail.
A man who, from a pay check In his
pocket, is supposed to be Mike Kaviteh,
was run over by a freight train at Tarn
aqua Saturday night and instantly kill
ed.
Thieves entered Boddall Short's
hardware store at Tatnaqiia at an early
hour yesterday morning and stole cut
lery and razors valued at §IOO.
The farm of Herman Weising, at
Hughesville, ha> been purchased as a
site for the power bouse of the new
trolley line between Wilkesbarre and
the lower end of the county.
§1.50 a year is all the TRIBUNE costs.
A Disappointed Chinaman
A Chinaman and a white girl, who
said they had kqown each other only
four hours, on Saturday asked Alderman
Robert Conatian, of Wilkesbarre, to
marry them. When the alderman re
fused, the couple went on to New York
state, where they could wed without the
formality of a marriage license.
They alighted from the Black Diamond
express and inquired of the station
hands for the office of the nearest alder
man. They found Mr. Conahan and
were greatly disappointed when told
they could not be married unless they
had a license. The register's office
closing at noon on Saturday, they were
unable to obtain one.
The Chinaman, who was dressed like
an American, said his name was Woo
Tong, and that he was a prosperous
merchant in New York, lie spoke ex
cellent English. The girl was pretty
and richly dressed and gave her name
as Grace Bradshaw, but would not say
jn what part of New York she lived.
They were both bound for the Pan-
American Exposition, and met on the
train soon after leaving Now York.
By the time they reached Maucb
Chunk tho Chinaman had confessed his
admiration for the girl, and asked her
to marry him. When White Haven was
reached he wanted to get out there and
be married, but the girl hesitated. She
finally consented when the train drew
into Wilkesbarre station.
Woo Tong offered Alderman Conahan
S5() to perform the ceremony.
Don't lie satisfied with temporary re
lief from Indigestion. Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure permanently and completely re
moves this complaint. It relieves per
manently becauso it allows the tirod
stomach perfect rest. Dieting won't
rest the stomach. Nature receives sup
plies from the food we eat. The sensi
ble way to help the stomach is to use
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure, which digests
what you eat and can't help but do you
good. Grover's City drug store.
Cry Is Not Sincere.
From the Lansford Record.
The cry for a cleaner Democracy In
Philadelphia is not sincere. When a
man like ex-Governor Pattison doesn't
suit the Gordon-McAloer-Kerr people,
it is questionable whether they will be
satisfied with anything less than run
ning the machine. They say that the
governor will bo "run" by the Ryan-
Donnelly people. Such men as Gordon,
Stenger & Co. know that nobody can
"run" Governor Pattison.
Much as tho country Democracy
desires to see an improvement in Phila
delphia, they will not stand for any
sandbagging of Pattison by the Gordon-
McAleer faction. While they were
crying down Donnelly and Ryan for
trading with Quay, they were doing the
same thing witli the Martin people, in
order to discredit the Democratic man
agement by polling a small vote.
If the Philadelphia Democrats are
really honest in their cry for a better
Democracy, they must fall behind Gov
ernor Pattison or remain in the Martin
camp.

"I suppose the demands on the time
of a successful financier are very
great."
"They are," answered the highly

~ Pennsylvania Wennrla.
Possibly few who read of "kings*
robes of royal ermine" appreciate that
the rightful and first possessors of tho
beauteous coat Is sometimes a denizen
of the Keystone State. It may be that
some subtle force suggested to turn
coat monarchs to choose the pelt of this
nulmal for their own. In fact, during
the greater portion of the year the er
mine Is a plain egg sucking weasel. A9
winter comes on he assumes a white
coat, with a black tipped tall.
Putolus noveboracensis, as the scien
tist colls the weasel or ermine, ranges
from North Corollua away up into Can
ada. It is rare, however, to take er
mine or white coated weasels in Penn
sylvania, although two specimens have
just been received at the Academy of
Natural Sciences from Sullivan county.
In fact, south of Pennsylvania the wea
sel never changes color in winter, and
tliis fact goes far to substantiate tlie
theory of protective coloration. Thus
when snow covers the ground the white
ermine heroines nearly invisible, while
in his weasel's guise during the Rum
mer he Is not nearly so conspicuous as
lie would be did he wear his white coat
all the year round.
Another Interesting fact Is that while
the animals that live in tho north al
ways change color those in tho south do
not, the renson being that their white
color would not protect, but destroy,
them, as there is almost no snow in the
south.—Philadelphia Record.

tongue, simple colds and fevers it is invaluable.
4&SwJ womanhood, has been found invaluable. When they bo
come pale and languid, the eyes dull, aching head, feet
K and hands cold, appetite gono or abnormal, and their ays
terns generally run down, they need building up, and their
JjmrjjJamm blood needs oleansing. Give them Laxukola, its gentlo
WMlwiW bowel action to cleanse anil its tonio properties to build up
tho system, will show immediate and most beneficial results.
Tißxnkoln for IHothera It is particularly valuable
an<l useful to women, especially mothers, as It is a gentle
and safe remedy to uso during all conditions of health
whenever their peculiar and delicate constitutions require
a mild and efficient laxative and tonic, while to nursing
mothers, worn out with tho cure of infants and whose sys-
A&sX tenia thereforo are particularly susceptible to disease
' ~ J Laxakola particularly appeals.
A: It clears tbo complexion, brightens tho eye, sharpens tho
appetite, removes muddy and blotched condition of tbeskln
v/ and cures sick headuclio to n certainty by removing theeause.
womeu suffering from chronic constipation, head
, dyspepsia, Laxakola will invariably bring relief.
Tiiilaltoln for Old Folks. —ln the Autumn and
Winter of Life, when tho various organs through long
years of action havo become more or less sluggish, it lo
--comes necessary to stimulate them by some remedy best
adapted to that purpose. That Laxakola is such, has been
proved beyond all question. Its gentle warming, soothing
||| r action on the bowels, liver and kidneys, stimulates them to
MM,cs ,yJ increased activity, cleanses the blood, quickens the clrcu-
\ W lation, and puts tho whole, system in a condition of houltli
JtrN„ and clia,,lcH lt to ward off tlirt( ' aso while its tonic properties
tone up tho system and keep it healthy.
Laxakola Does It.
Laxakola is not only the most efficient of family remedies, but the most economical because it com
bines two medicines for one price, toni. ~nd laxative. No other remedy gives • much for the money. All
