SLAVONIC SOCIETY.
National J're*ldfint Ambrose, of Now York,
Will Speak llere Tomorrow.
Anthony S. Ambrose, of New York
city, supremo president of the National
i Slavonic Society of the United States,
will arrive at Freeland tomorrow and
at 3 p. ra. will deliver an address to the
members of Assembly No. 5. He is on
a tour of the anthracite coal field and
spent the forepart of tho wevk address
ing the members of the order In and
around Scranton, Plttston and Wilkes
barre. Aftor leaving Freeland be will
go to Beaver Meadow and McAdoo and
from tho latter place to the towns of
the Schuylkill region.
President Ambrose's mission to this
section Is for the purpose of ascertain
ing how many of the members, if any,
are in waut and to relieve them. Tho
organization has a membership in the
coal fields of betweon 4,000 and 5,000
and throughout the country of at least
50,000. Tho national treasury of the
order is said to contain a surplus fund
of $50,000, and this sum will be spent, if
necessary, to keep the members from
want during the prevalence of the
strike.
At tho outbreak of the strike the na
tional officers of tho Slavonic union
mailed communications to each assem
bly, calling upon the members to pro
serve tho poaco, remalu away from the
vicinity of any mine or washery and to
stop all unecessary parading. The
same advice is published almost weekly
in the Amerlkansko Slovansko Noviny,
tho official organ of the order published
at Pittsburg.
Tho payment of dues by tho mombor9
was suspended on account of tho labor
troubles and each remains in good stand
ing in tho moautimo. One of tho by
laws of the union is that every mombor
must become a citizen of the United
States within six years after joining.
Mr. Ambrose will return to Now York
city next Monday, where ho is a cashior
of tho Foreigu Exchange and Banking
House.
In conversation with a roportor yes
terday ho said he was not in tho region
to say anything against tho strike but
merely to counsel preservation of tho
poaco on the part of tho members of tho
order of which he is the national head
and to assist those who are in distress.
Disorder in Upper End.
An attempt was made Mouday night
to take the lives of Jamos Connolly,
foreman of the Edgerton washory, In
tho upper part of Lackawanna county,
and Forest Grossman, one of tho work
men. Tho washery was working that
night, and Connolly and Crossman
started for tho slush dump sevoral
hundred yards from tho breaker. There
they were fired upon by some unknown
man. One of the particlos of shot
entered Connolly's right eye and he may
lose tho sight of it. Crossman was shot
iu the left leg with a bullet which
splintered tho bone.
While the raeiubors of John Wachs'
family were sleeping they worn thrown
from their beds In Pittston by a torrific
explosion. Wachs and his three sons
have been at work at tho mines ever
since the strike was declared and some
persons placed a stick of dynamito at
his front door and exploded it. A large
hole was blown through tho side of the
building.
Charged With Murder.
The first move In clearing the mystery
which surrounds the death of William
Yates, the young colored man who was
found wounded at Ilazleton Friday
morning and died in the Miners hospital
that evening, was madoyostorday, when
Itlchard Roberts, a young man whose
homo Is in Coxo addition, was arrested
on tho charge of causing Yates'death.
The prisoner was given a hearing be
fore Squire McKeivoy, who remanded
him for a further hearing today.

until rocently at one of the collieries on
the South Side. During the past few
weeks ho has boon drinking heavily and
was arrested three times last week by
ilazleton police on the charge of drunk
onnoss. In each instance ho paid his
fine.
It is not yet known what evidence the
authorities hold to connect Roberts
with Yates' death.
No Labor Union Ticket.
Representatives of tho various labor
organizations of Lackawanna county
met at Scranton last night and formed
a pormanent organization to be known
as the Economic League of Lackawanna
County, with John 11. Dovino president.

TRI-WEEKLY
TRIFLING WITH YOUR HEALTH
Is Like Playing With a Load
ed Gnn—lf You Have Kid
ney Trouble Attend
to It at Once.
It is oasy to tell whether your kidneys
or bladder aro diseased. Take a bottle
or glass tumbler and fill it with urine.
If there is a sediment—a powder-like
substance—after standing a day and
night, if it is pale or discolored, ropy or
stringy, there is something wrong with
the kidneys. Other sure signs of disease
are a desire to urinate often, pain iu the
back, or if your urine stains linen.
There is no question that Dr. David
Kennedy's Favorite Remedy is the best
and surest medicine in tho world for dis
ease of tho Kidneys, Liver, Rladdor and
Blood, Rheumatism, Dyspepsia, Chronic
Constipation, and tho sicknesses peculiar
to women. It quickly relieves and cures
inability to hold urine and the necessity
of getting up a number of times during
the night, and puts an end to tho scald
ing pain when passing urine.
Tho Rev Henry P. Miller, paster Bap
tist Church, Spartenburg, S. C., writes:
"For eleven years I suffered with
kidney, liver and heart troubles,
swimming in tho head, dull head
ache and numbness of tho liiubs.
Several physicians prescribed for
me and I then began the use of Dr.
David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy,
and in about two weeks was entirely
well."
