The CIRCUS. Sells Bros. and S. H.
Barrett's combination exhibited here
Thursday evening under an immense
spread of canvas. The two trains con-
tanning this company's paraphernalia and
troupe consisted of 40 cars, and as fast
as they were unloaded were taken to
San Mateo and Menlo Park, there not
being accommodation here for them.
For hours they were moving between
the depot and where the tent was to be
pitched, everything being so arranged
that work was carried on like clock work
The procession, which was the largest
and most magnificent ever seen in the
town, started at about 10 A. NJ, and par
AIDED the streets for about an hour
When the parade was over a tightrope
performance was given in the open air,
and was enjoyed by large crowd. A
good audience attended the matinee, but
an immense one filled the seats at night,
and how they did enjoy themselves,
adults and children alike. An extended
account of the excellencies of the pro-
gramme would be impossible, but notice
must be made of most of the performers
and attractions which were presented.
The entree was as far superior to what
circuses have heretofore presented that
it beggared description; almost every

Picnic at Tairchild's Grove.

The picnic held by the residents of Pond

affair. Both young and old participated in the

Hazleton made their appearance here
on Sunday with probably as strong
team as was ever seen in the Freeland
park. OF course it was the amateurs the
home club intended to play, yet the ap-
pearance of four of the Middle States
League players did not trouble them the
least. The amateurs retained but five of
their players, and accompanied by the
battery, first baseman and third baseman
of the League team, asserted that moth
ing less than a shut out would satisfy
them. The confidence displayed by
both sides was remarkable and foretold
a great game. Never was Hazleton
more determined to win game. and
dozens of equipages were driven over
the hill by their friends to see Freeland
getting laid out. But the unexpected
often happens and this was the case on
Sunday. The club that came here to do
the shut out act crawled out of the small
lest hole ever seen on a ball field, and
the League battery's reputation was
saved only by Freeland's errors The
game was of the sort that is calculated
to make base ball cranks feel happy.
Both sides were goose-egged for the first
few innings, then the home club made a
run, which was tied by the visitors in
the eighth and remained so until the end
of the ninth. The excitement was in
tense as the tenth opened, and it in
creased when Freeland batted out two
runs, increasing their score to three.
Hazleton added another in their half
and the game ended with the score 3-2
in favor of the Browns. Both batteries
worked fine. Welsh, who was supported
by Simmons, pitched one of the best
games of the season. The fly catches by
McGeehan of Hazleton and McGeady of
Freeland were noticeable features.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1889-07-18

Soon we shall have the season of polit-
ical conventions again. There will be
gatherings of the clans at our neighbor-
ing city of Wilkes-Barre, and aspirants
for county offices will be named for the
thoughtful consideration of our citizens.
Then the newspapers will sing the praises
of their respective party selections, and
vigorously damn the good names and the
regulations of the candidates of the
opposing factions. Meanwhile the honest
voter will stand dazed between the devil
and the deep sea, scarcely knowing in
which direction to turn in order that he
may serve the country's interests the
best.
Luzerne County politics, as a rule, are
vile and rotten institution. The way
of the man who wants to exercise his
franchised privilege of seeking public
oillce has come to be so hard, that good
man is appalled,, and poor man falls
hopeless wreck in the race. Delegates
are bought and sold like cattle in the
mart, and honor and decency are bar
tered in barefaced shamefulness. To
secure an Office you must buy it, and
stoop to such degradation as will turn the
fruits thereof to ashes.
At the next county convention to be
held in WilkesBarre, sights may be wit
messed pitiful to behold. Almost every
man will have his price, ranging from a
drink of whiskey to a months wages.
Men who are thought to be decent
enough citizens at home will be found
hungering for the dirty dollar of the
briber, selling their honor and their
manhood for a bit of silver. Heaven
keep the mothers who have reared such
sons. Alas for the county whose hopes
are builded on such rotten timbers For
the man, who sells his good name for
such trihing and filthy gain, dshonors
the mother who bore him; and selling
his honor, he would sell his country and
his God the same.
In Heavens name let there be a stop
to such proceedings. Relegate the bribe-
taker to the rear. Give us clean politics
for once, and make every man who asks
an office ask it on his own merits. Open
the way for the poor man as well as for
the man Of means, and don't suck the
blood from his veins when he presents
himself to you for an honorable ambition
to lift himself higher The reason no
poor man can get an Office in Luzerne
County is because other poor men won't
give it to him unless he buys it from
them, something, which, of course, he is
unable to do. Money in politics has
become an abominable nuisance. Out
upon it, and out upon the low-lived
beggar who sells his manhood for mess
of pottage Sun.

A Cow Becomes Enraged.

singular accident accurred at
Fiddler's Green, the name given small
village below Plymouth. A two-year-old
child of John Delane's was sitting in the
roadway a short distance from the house
when a COW came down the road. 1t
did not seem to take any notice of the
child until it was quite near. Then the
little girl began to cry and the COW
becoming suddenly enraged rushed upon
her, lowered her head and tossed her in
the air. One horn entered the chid's
mouth and tore the cheek completely
open. Neighbors rushed to her assis-
tance, drove the COW away and carried
the little child to her home. Medical
aid was summoned and the wound sewed
up and all possible help afforded. The
little girl is seriously hurt.

Council met in special session on Fri
day evening with all the members pre-
sent. The secretary presented the adj
justed valuation of the borough for 1889,
and motion was made to place the tax
levy the same as last year-l5 mills on
the dollar.
WINS Williamson, tax collector for
1888, presented further list Of exonera-
tions amounting to $l1.03 and was given
credit for the same. A list was also pre-
sented showing that taxes to the amount
of $22.S7 were returned to the county
commissioners for collection. Mr.. Will
liamson's Indebtedness to the borough at
present is S92.S7.
Hugh Malloy appeared before council
and requested that he be reimbursed for
the tearing away of the porch in front of
his Centre Street property. He stated
that several members of council had
promised to give him $25 additional
when the matter would come before
council. A motion to give Mr.. Malloy
$25 towards defraying the expense of re-
moving the porch was made and lost, the
vote being one for, three against and one
member not voting. The council then
adjourned to meet on August 3.

Notice is hereby given to the tax
payers of Foster Township that the du-
plicates of State, County, School, Bor-
ough, Poor and Road Taxes having been
issued and delivered to me, your atten-
ton is called to Section 7, Act of June
20, 1885, as follows:
SECTION 7. Where any duplicate of taxes
assessed is issued and delivered to the collector
of taxes, it shall be the duty of said collector to
give public notice soon thereafter us conve-
niently can be done, by ut least ten written or
printed notices to be posted in as many public
places in different parts of the township or bor-
ough, that said duplicate has been issued and
delivered to him; and all persons, who shall
within sixty days from the date of said notice
make payment of any taxes charged against
be entitled to reduction of five per centum
from the amount thereof and all persons, who
shall fail to make payment of any taxes charg-
ed against them i'll said duplicate, except road
taxes for six months after notice given as
aforesaid, shall be charged five per cent. add-
1lonal on the taxes charged against them, which
shall be added thereto by said collector of taxes
and collected by him.
In compliance with the requirements
of said Act, | will be at my residence on
Adam Street, Freeland, on Thursday,

two weeks of the said sixty days, viz:

BASE BALL.

-Frceland has nine won and four lost.
-Freeland and Lehighton play at the
park Saturday afternoon.
The "colored gentlemen of Trenton"
defeated Hazleton on Tuesday. Score,
SO.
The HaZleton amateurs and profes-
sionals played Saturday afternoon. The
score was III in favor of the professors.
j. Carr's work in left field was missed
on Sunday. IIazleton would have been
presented with a shut out had "Rats"
been there.
-Hazeton's Indian battery-White
Eyes and Graves-were among the spec
tators at the park on Sunday and attrac-
ted much attention.
The Tigers and Drifton met at the
park Sunday morning and played an in
teresting game of ten innings, Drifton
winning by score of 1919.
The longest game of the season was
played at Canton, Ohio, on Friday, when
1t took the home team eighteen innings
to defeat Springfield. Score, 5-3.
Chris Fulmer, who has been catch
ing for Baltimore for the past three
years, has been released, owing to a
weak arm preventing him from throw
ing. He is now at his home in Tamaqua,
but expects to sign with some other club
shortly.
The Herald says Weatherly has more
base ball cranks to the square inch than
any town in the U. s., yet there has not
been single game played there this sea-
son. Judging from that we are inclined
to believe the said cranks must be living
i'll the cemeteries.
The Lone Stars of Catasauqua have
signed pitcher named Mex eever, who
made a record by striking out fourteen
Lehighton batters recently. We hope
Manager Davis will bring him along
when they play here next month, and
we think that one Star at least will not
shine so brilliantly after that game.
One of the Hazleton papers on Mon
day worked off the old umpire chestnut,
claiming Mr.. McNelis gave the home
club everything their own way. 1t is
not necessary to deny such statements
when they are made by that journal as
it has raised the cry of "rotten umpire"
after every game played here during the
past three years. Why not acknowledge
fair defeat when it is given, or bring
forth more original excuse?
The Young America club of Halle
ton and the Gimlers of Highland played
on the latter's ground Sunday afternoon.
The game at certain times resembled
base ball, but it was often impossible to
tell what the clubs were doing. When
each side came to the bat they remained
there until they were tired running
bases, and then they took the field again.
The Young Americas carried off the
honors CO of the day by the remarkable
score of 1884.

Under instructions from Burgess Davis
High Constable Robert NJ. Rinker armed
himself with a roll of notices on Monday
evening and struck terror to the hearts
of the small boys-and many large ones
by posting them in several parts of the
borough. The notices were designed to
call the attention of the public to the 9TH
section, Sth chapter, of the borough ordi-
nances, which reads as follows: "Any
person who shall, within the limits Of
the borough, wantonly or maliciously
throw any metal, stone, brick, bullet or
other missile, etc, etc, shall, for every
such offence, forfeit and pay a fine of
not less than one nor more than ten dol
lars, in addition to any damage he may
OCCASION" This ordinance will here
after be strictly enforced and in conse-
quence all persons are forbidden to play
or practice playing ball on the public
streets.
