Omoe ut rurm, ijayion, UNANIMOUS FOR K1RKPATRIGK. The Ex-Attorney General Nomi nated in the Eighth District. REPUBLICANS CONFIDENT. The Split Among the Democrats of the District Makes the Nominee's Flection a Certainty, Easton, Sept. 28. The Republi can conference of the Eighth Con gressional District was held this af ternoon in this city, and unanim ously chose ex-Attorney General W. S. Kirkpatrick as the nominoe for Congress. The conferreos present were : Northampton, R. C. Stewart and H. D. Maxwell, Boston j C. F. Brown, South Bethlehem ; Baxtor B. McClure, Ejst Allen; A. C. Prince, Bethlehem ; Willis Howell, Lower Mt. Bothol j C. B. Camden, Bangor, and J. W. Pascoo, South Easton ; Carbon, Dr. G. Stewart Kirby, Mauch Chunk ; N. M. Bal liet, Lehighton ; L. L. Finley, Sum mit Hill ; E. F. Soitz, Bowmons town j Monroe, Dr. T. C. Walton, Strondsburg ; Pike, Ebenezor War ner, Milford. There were a num ber of Republicans from Monroe and Carbon, as well as Northampton, present. Hon. Ebenezor Warner was selected as chairman ; Dr. Wal ton, of Stroudsburg, and Dr. Kirby, of Mauch Chunk, were the secre taries. Ex-District Attorney Stewart, of Northampton, nominated Mr. Kirk patrick. He was sent for, and on appearing before the conference was notified of its action. In a short speech ho exprossed his thanks to' the conference. All the conferroes expressod the belief that tho out look could not possibly be more fav orable to Judge Kirkpatrick's elec tion. The Democrats of this district are hojiolessly divided and two candi dates have been nominated, Hon. J. J. Hart, the present Congressman, was backed by Monroe and Pike counties, and Northampton and Carbon selected another candidate of their own. This division of the muddled Bryanites makes the Eighth District absolutely sure for Kirk patrick. Noticb. The annual meeting of the Stockholders of tho Forest Lake Association for the purpose of elect ing officers and transacting such other business as may properly be presented, will be hold at the club house of the association in Lacka waxen township, Pike Co., Pa., Oc tober 13, 1898, at 10 o'clock a. m. W. C. Davidson, Clerk. OBITUARY. MRS. AMERIOU8 D. FRISBIE. Etta, wife of Amoricus D. Frisbio, of Greene diod Thursday, Sopt. 24 at her home in that township aged about twenty nine years. She was the eldest daughter of Silas J. Dick erson and is survived by her hus band and three children the eldest being only Ave years and the young est an infant. She was a most es timable woman, and her loss is not only a sad bereavement to her de voted husband, but irreparable to the little children left at such ten der years without the loving care and gentle guidance which only a mother's hand and heart can be stow. The funeral took place at Hemlock Grove Church on Sunday, conducted by the Rev. Boyce, and the large concourse of people pre sent attested the respect and esteem in which she was held, and also the heartfelt sorrow at her untimely death. . MISS MARY FRIKH 1 Miss Mary Frieh aged about forty years died at Newport, R. I., Mon day evening of Heart failure and her remains were brought to Mil ford Wednesday for interment. Her aged father. Joseph Frieh, of Milford one sister, Theresa, of Newport, four brothers, Xavier, Alphonse and Philip of Boston and Geo. A. of Mil ford survive her. Brief services were hold here by Rev. Father Tries of St. Patrick's Church. Ratification Parade. No one but "Si," the assistant editor of our Bryan cotemporary, could so successfully and unblushing ly engineer a ridiculous forno and be proud of it, as that which appeared on our streets last Friday evening, as a presumable parade in honor of his chief's one-legged renominotion to Congress. "Si" had so inflated himself with enthusiasm that a base drum rested comfortably on his windy protuberance, as with marti al air and military mien he headed a procession of a dozen boys between the ages of 6 and 14 years one of whom carried a transparency with the legend "Harts majority 23,000" more or loss. The Congressman was visited at his home by this inspiring array of embryonic voters, that is they may be voters some years hence if Domocratio parados pea nuts colic and other things, do not bring thorn to an untimely and inglorious end. The childish jam boree wound up in a back alloy around a beer keg over which two guz.ling adults zealously presided. The above are cold facts, and thoy show the spontaneity and uproari ous unanimity with which our citi zens attach themsolves to the fast fading glory of their highly respect ed and worthy member from the Eighth. Tho parode as a whole was a fit subject to be soundly spanked and put to bed after supper, and fit tingly symbolized the dignified per formances of the coterie of political gamesters who ployed Mr. Hart ias a pawn on their dismantled chess board. - A Pleasant Journey. Mr. Honry C. Bowen, of Lehman who has been suffering for some time with blood poisoning arising from a severe bite on his hand re ceived while separating two fight ing dogs, has with his wife gone to Philadelphia and will enter an in stitution there to receive massage treatment. While his hand is prac t'cally healed yot it is not froe from stiffness and aftor a sojourn thore, he will go to the soa shore for a time and will, afterward take a trip to Brazil on a line of steamers con trolled by his nephew, Mr. Bolton. He has our best wishes and hopes that his health which has been con siderably impaired by bis long suf fering will bo wholly restored. McKlnley and Hobart Club. A large attendance gratified the young men who took the initiative steps towards tho formation of this club, last Friday evening, and after being called to order, W. A. H. Mit chell was unanimously elected Pre sident ; John C. Warner, Vice Pre sident ; Leroy E. Kipp, secretary, and W. Ta Strublo Treasurer. An executive committee was also ap pointed. The club starts under very auspicious circumstances, and with a large list of of members. A Jersey man In Llrabo. Brewster who resides just across the river in Montogue was arrested here on Tuesday by Fish Warden Van Gordon and his assistant, for maintaining an eol weir in the Dela ware, and in default of bail was locked up. There appears to be a wonderful facination in obtaining fish contrary to law. Whether the statutes prohibiting weirs are just, reasonable or equitable, is a question which may be discussed without harm, but that any one so long as they are in force would bo so foolhardy as to take the chances of a heavy fine or imprisonment de monstrates that some men are more fish hungry than wise. Swindled Out of Eighty-Five Dollars. A shrewd swindler giving the name 'of J. B. Lyon victiinized clerk John Wickham of the Fowler House in Port Jervis lust Friday by obtain ing the cash ou a drrft for $85 by forging the name of A. S. Quiok on it. The man was caught Suturday at Susquehanna where he had gone fully prepared to repeat his scheme, which was to offer a draft in pay ment of his bill at the hotel reoeive the balance in money and then light out to fresh fields. AlA MILFORD, HKE COUNTY, PA., FRIDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1896. A DEMOCRATIC HARMONY The Eighth Congressional Dis trict Divided. Two Free Sliver Itemocrattc OsmlMntei. Named at the StroudRbnrg Convention, and lloth Expect, of C'nnrne, to IV Elected. An air of mellowness pervaded tho cbnferrees gathered Sept. 24, at Stroudsburg, to placo in nomination a candidate for this district, which was only the percursor of a storm soon to break nnd with cyclonic fury rend the conference in twain. After all the conferees had nssem bled but before any organization was effected the ball was opened by the presentation of the following re solution, by the well-known Demo cratic loader, ex-collector of Rev enue, Charles B. Staples, Esq., who was one of ex-Senator Shnll's cou forrees from Monroe : "To the Democratic Congressional conferreos of Carbon county and the Democratic Congressional con ferroes of Northampton county : We, tho undersigned Democratic Congressional conferroes of Monroe county, at the instance and request of the majority ot Democratic voters of said county, before entering into or taking part in the Democratic Congressional ooiueronco, to be held for tlio Eighth District of Pennsyl vania, on this day, believing that tho representation of Northampton county in previous Domocratio Con gressional conferences, under .the present apportionment, has been n:i- lust and unfair to other counties, and has given to Northampton a power to control the Congressional nominations, make tho following demand : , "First Representation Jx No'tlu ampton county in said conferences be reduced from five to threo. Second That in accordance with time-honored custom of the district, Joseph J. Hart be given the Domo cratio nomination for his second term. (Signed) "L. Wkstbrook, "C. B. Staples, "Georoe H. Rhodes, "Conferroes of Monroe Co. Wo, tho Democratic Congres sional Conferroes of Pike connty, concur in the above demand. (Signed,) "J. B. Wkstbrook, 'Geo. A. Swepniser, "A. G. Rowland." A suggestion was made that be fore proceeding to consider tho re solution some organization should be made, and it was also objectod that the resolution practically named the candidate in advance of any ac tion, and the Northampton and Carbon conferroes insisted on pro ceeding in regular order. There upon the Pike and Monroe confer roes arose and loft the room and convened in an adjoining porlor. C. L. Hemingway thon called the Northampton-Carbon conferees to order, and Frank P. Sharkey, of Mauch Chunk, wan elected presi dent, James T. Woodring, of North -ampton, and G. W. Mortimer, of Carbon, secretaries. Mortimer in a short speech nominatod Laird n. Barber, who received tho entire votes of that part of tho conference and was duly declared the nominoe. This resolution was then adopted : "Resolved, That this is the sense of this Congressional conference that the Democratic party in this district be expected and is hereby instructed to support the candidate of the Democratic party for Presi dent and Vice-Prosidont nominatod at Chicago and L. H. Barber the nominoe of Carbon, and when elected, to support in Congress the principles enunciated in the Chicago platform. H. C. Twombler, of Easton, and Dr. Stout, of . Bethlehem, were ap pointed a committee to notify the candidute. Air. iSiiruer rosponiioii with a short speech, in which he de clared he would support the Chicago platform and thanked the conferroes for the honor bestowed upon mm. The conference adjourned' after the following resolutions were adop ted: "Resolved, that when this con ference adjourns it is to meet again at some time in the futuro at the American Hotel, Mauch Chunch." In the' meantime the Monroe and Pike conferroes had organized by electing Charles B. Staples, of Mon roe, President and Geo. A. Swopom ser, of Pike, Secretary. Joseph J. Hart was at once nomi nated by Lafayette Westbrook. the motion being seconded by Vr. uoo II. Rhodes, of Tobyhanna. The nomination was made by acclama tion, followed by groat ti-iring, The conference then adjourned to meet at the call of Chairman Stap les. At the close of the Hart con vention, the Monroe and Pike sup porters gave three more loud cheers for the Pike County Congressman. The certificates of nomination of tho respective candidates were im mediately forwarded by messengers to Harrisburg to be filed with the Secretary of the Commonwealth, and it is learned that the one of Mr. Hurt was the first filed, and that in addition to it a nomination by nomi nation papers will be made, thus en suring him a place on the ticket should a decision of the Courts as to tho regularity of his certificate be adverse to its validity.

His train broke in two and in attempting so put on a brake his foot was caught be tween the running boards. The wheelmen, of Middletown, N. Y., will have a large parade in that city Oct. 7. An invitation is extended to wheelmen of other plnces as it is desired to make the display as fine as possible. Fare for round trip will bo one way fare, on tho Erie. The Philadelphia Press editori ally speaking of the situation in the Eighth district pays our present Congressman a compliment in this plain language,. "Few men less fit to represent an intelligent constitu ency than Congressman Hart ever got into the House from this great State." Capt. L. Westbrook, whose ac tion, in regard to the effort made by citizens oi Pike while ne was repre sentative from this County, to com pel the rebuilding of the bridge at Matamoras which had been avoided by Jim Fisk's shrewd manipulation, is still so rank an odor in the nostrils of our people, that self acting clothes pins ore at a premium when ever his name is mentioned, was a fitting instrument to aid Monroe in admin istering her dose to Pike in the shape of a Hart. Enjoyed an Outing at Brink Pond. Dr. Wenner and family, Harry Terwilligor, and Miss Margaret Brink enjoyed an outing at Brink Pond, with the Well's campers last Friday. Miss Brink, while fishing in the pond thinking she would not have any luck at all, but the line was cutting the water like fury, and Margaret exclaimed, "I have got hold of a whalo." It proved to be a pickerel measuring about 24 inches. Lost on the road between Gor don's mill and Travis place Sunday last a lap blanket, yellow and black plaid on ono side and block on the other. Finder will be suitably re warded by leaving same at Angle's blacksmith shop. Mr. Mitchell For Aaaoclat Judge. Hon. Wm. Mitchell, of Milford, who was nominated by the Republi can convention without a dissenting voice calls attention in another col umn to his candidacy. That he would adorn the position, by his character and qualifications, are so well known by the people as to need no emphasis. His location is con venient and he can always be found at his place of business when his ser vices may be required. This fact alone is a strong argument why those desiring to aid in the accom modation of the pnblio should see that ho receives their support. HERMAN FAUL SCIIULTZ Arrested in New York Charged with Arson on Complaint of his Son, The Man Who was I.at Weofc niftrhniiKcd From Onr Jnll Now ArctiNed of Mnr derlng His Wife Account of the Ar rest. The Now York Hornld of Wednes day X'ontains a long and circumstan tial a ount of the arrest of Schnltz who is charged by his nineteen- year-old son, Charley Edmund Schnltz with having boon the in stigator of several fires in his busi ness places ill New York, and also with groat cruelty to his wife, throats that he would kill h or and the di rect accusation that ho had done so. Our readers will recall the story in last week's Press in which . the strange circumstance of Schnltz be ing in the room with his wifo when she was shot at Wohlfarth's House in Shohola, and claiming not to have heard tho shot or known of her death until ho was n roused in tho morning.tho failure of tho coroner's jury to find any suspicion against him, and his discharge from cus tody, was told. The Herald also repeats this in part, and says tho young man knew nothing of those matters until his father returned to Now York last Wednesday, when ho learned of the sudden and peculiar death of his mother, and knowing the character and instincts of his father from long and bitter experience, ho at onco de cidod tliat. his father was guilty, ana, ne says told mm so. to tins the father reponded with a threat that frightened both himself and younger brother so that they have not dared to roturn homo since, but went to Shohola where he has since been investigating the circumstances surrounding the shooting. In this ho was aided by a lawyer of New York, who was at tho house when the affair occurred. Return ing to New York the young man made the convplaint and procured the arrest ot his father on the charge of arson. He alleges that before his father went to Shohola he called where the boy works and asked for his wife's address saying ho had received money from Germany and wished to give her some to straighten blat ters up. The address was refused, but the father exhibited a roll of tis sue paper saying it contained money and this is supposed to be the money which ho alleges he gave to his wife but which has not been found. The boy further says that before his father went to Shohola ho called on a Mrs. Macy, in Brooklyn, and made this threat, " Mrs. Macy, if Liz don't come home with me, I'll shoot her whore she is."
