WOMEN BEATEN
AT DRIFTON
Unmercifully Clubbed by
Officers This Morning.
Two More Strikers Arrested
and Shamefully Abused.
Yesterday s Prisoners Out
on Bail—Officers Arrested.
One of the most disgraceful scenes
ever enacted \n Drifton took place at 10
o'clock this morning, when a force of
deputies clubbed half a dozen Slavonian
women unmercifully and arrestod two
men, Joseph Kovltch and George
Markos.
The men, while on their way froth
Freeland to their home In Drifton, met
a Slavonian non-union fireman near the
D. S. & S. tracks, south of No. 2 breaker.
They spoke to him a few minutes, when
Charles Rohiands came along and order
ed them to be off.
Markos was slow In complying with
Rohiands' command and when the lat
ter approached hiio in a threatening
manner he reached out and knocked off
the special officer's hat. Both strikers
then proceeded leisurely to the alley in
the rear of their homes and sat down
along the fence.
Ten minutes later a force of six uni
formed oiTicers came rushing up the
alley and arrestod Kovitch and his com
panion. Kovitch's sister, Mrs. Petchol,
ran out to learn what was tho trouble.
She tried to got close enough to her
brother to spoak to him, but was felled
to the ground with a blow from the butt
end of an officer's revolver.
In the meantime other women had
gathered and when the assault was
made on Mrs. Petchol some of them
picked up atones. The officers made a
rush at the women, whom they sur
rounded, and in the most shamoful
manner clubbed tho defenseless females
until the latter fell on their knoe6
pleading for mercy.
Tho prisoners were hustled to the
special D. S. & S. train, which immedia
tely steamed out in the direction of Haz
leton. The Drifton officials refused to
tell where the men were taken, but it
has since been learned that the train
met the Pennsy "flyer" at Gum Uun.
The prisoners were there placed on the
Wllkesbarro train and taken to that city
for a hearing.
Markos was bleeding profusely when
placed on tho train and begged for a
Sketch of Prof. I£. L. Kemp.
From Stroudsburg Times, June 27.
Prof. Fill wood L Kemp, tho newly
elected principal of East Stroudsburg
normal school, was born at Hamburg.
Berks county, in 1857. He attended
the public schools of his native town
until nearly seventeen years of age.
Then he followed a varied program for
about live years, part of that time being
a silk hatter's apprentice and the bal
ance of the time lie worked in a steel
rolling mill and on a truck farm.
Prof. Kemp's first school teaching was
In 1878, when he secured a position as
teacher in tho schools at Orwigsburg,
Schuylkill county. He taught there for
two years and privately prepared for
college In that time, entered the junior
class of Franklin and Marshall college
and graduated at the hoad of his class
in 1881.
He was elected professor of Latin and
Greek in the normal school at Kutztown,
the year of his graduation from collpgc.
After holding that position two years he
was elected to teach psychology, podo
gogy and literature. After serving five
years in that profossorship ho left the
school to take charge of Wichita univer
sity, at Wichita, Kansas.
Ho was at the head of that university
for three years. Then ho was elected
principal of tho Palatinate college, at
Meyorstown, and after remaining there
two years he was elected vice principal
of the normal school at Strouds
burg when it was opened and has occu
pied that chair ever since.
Professor Kemp has done much good
work in lecturing and instructing at in
stitutes in Pennsylvania, New Jersey
and Kansas. In 1880 he was ordained
a minister in the Reformed church and
served two mission churches in connec
tion with his duties at Wichita.
Professor Kemp is the author of a
volume of poems and of a history of
education. Tho history was published
by J. B. Lippincott &, Co. The com
pany is now preparing to publish a
second edition of the work. The book
Has been adopted by a number of large
normal schools, on the Pacific Icoast as
well as in the Fast, and for tho training
schools of a number of large cities.
The trustees made no mistake in
elocting Professor Kemp to succeed
Prof. Bible as the head of tho normal
school of F2ast Stroudsburg. He is a
man of board and liberal view and there
is not the least doubt that, the school
will prosper under his administration as
it never has before.

drink of water. Superintendent John
Rohlands gave orders to the guards that
tho man should not be permitted to
quench his thirst.
Three of the women who were clubbed
are said to be in a serious condition.
STRIKERS OUT ON BAIL.
Tho four men arrested here yesterday
and sent to prison in default of ball
were released from the county jail at 11
o'clock la9t night. Bail wan furnished
by Daniel Shovlin, father of one of the
prisoners, and John Ilugan, of South
Centre street.
The bondsmen and two of the strikers,
John H. Shovlin and William Gilgot,
Jr., arrived hero from Wilkesbarre at
9.58 o'clock this morning.
John Schrader and John Waskewlcz.
the other two strikers who were arrest
ed with them, are expected home on the
Lehigh Valley train at 4.45 o'clock this
afternoon.
It is reported that warrants have
been issued by Coxe Bros. & Co.'s of
ficials for other strikers who were at
Drifton yestorday, but none of these
had been servedytoday, so far as could
be learned.
OUT AGAIN THIS MORNING.
Tho rain this morning had but little
ofTect upon the men engaged in pickot
work. The force was almost as large
as on other days this week. Very little
work was required from them this
morning, as only a few men attempted
to cross the lines.
The coal and iron police at Drifton
did not make their appearance here
today. Thoy have been warned by
Sheriff Jacobs to remain on Coxe Bros.
& Co.'s property, and this probably ac
counts for their absence near town
today.
The Drifton strikers met at 4.30
o'clock this morning and came to Froo
land in groups of twos aud threes.
While passing Drifton office each group
was saluted by tho guard with a sneer
ing "good morning." Of all the strikers
who passed him only one deigned to
reply, and he told the guard to "mind
your own business."
The coal and iron force at Drifton
was slightly Increased last night.

at Wilkesbarre, claim residence In Phil
adelphia. It is understood that an
effort will be made to get them out on a
writ of habeas corpus.
Somo trouble was encountered in ar
resting tho men, as the company officials
at first postlvely refused to divulgo tho
name of either the man snspected of tho
shooting or of any of the deputies in tho
inclosuro. Finally it was decided to
swear out warrants for tho arrest of a
numborof guards, whose description he
had secured, and this wa9 done.

A Milk Tent'.
Blue litmus paper will turn red In
the presence of an acid, so that by
testing a drop of in Ilk that is under
suspicion the matter can be settled at
once without tasting. More tluiu this,
it will report the presence of tujf acid
when it cannot be discovered by taste
and will prevent the spoiling of many j
a pudding and custard. When sour
milk and soda are used, tlie paper will
show just when the soda neutralizes
the acid. In this case the red litmus
paper is of use, since if too much soda
lias been added the red paper will
turn blue. This will bring to an end
the biscuits dotted with brown soda
spots.

"After a careful investigation of Dr.
David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy, a

troubles, rheumatism, dyspepsia and
constipation with its attendant ills, we
are free to confess that a more meritor
ious medicine has never come under the
examination of the chemical and medical
experts of the New York Magazine of
Sanitation and Hygiene. In fact, after
the most searching tosts and rigid in

nedy's Favorite Remedy, it becomes a
duty to recommend its use in unequivo
cal term to every reader of this journal
whose complaint comes within the list
of ailments which this remedy is adver
tised to cure. We havo obtained such
overwhelming proof of the efficacy of
this specific—havo so satisfactorily de
monstrated its curative powers through
personal experiments—that a care for
the interests of our readers loads us to
call attentioa to its great value."
