Weekly Coal Report.

The anthracite coal trade continues in
state of almost unparalleled depres-
sion, but the various mining and carry
ing interests are working in close har-
mony to prevent any special demoraliza-
ton. The output of coal is being
restricted as closely as possible to the
actual necessities of consumers, and the
seven or eight companies which control
the trade are said to be adhering strictly
to the respective percentages allotted
them. The general sales agents of the
anthracite companies met at New York
on last Thursday, and after discussing
the situation of the coal trade and the
outlook for future business adjourned to
meet again on the 9th instant. No
changes were made in the circular prices
for anthracite for this month. 1t was,
however, generally understood between
them that they should recommend to
their respective managers the necessity
of not mining more coal than the mar
ket actually requires; that the output for
March be not over two million tons, and
that for April be limited to an equal
quantity unless the demand should be
greater. Pea coal is again in better de-
mand than supply on account of the
small quantity being made. The En-
| 9tHee'tHy ana htHtHg J0u1ndG says AS
a result of the Philadelphia and Reading
Railroads new order, refusing to accept
four-wheel coal cars, which went into
effect on the 10th instant, neither the
Lehigh Valley nor the Central Railroad
of New Jersey delivered any coal to
either the North Pennsylvania or East
Pennsylvania branches of the Reading
Railroad. All the coal which the Lehigh
Valley Railroad had in its yards at
Packerton consigned to Philadelphia
parties was hurried to the Reading
tracks before midnight on the 9th. The
Lehigh Valley Company is sending all
its gondola or eight-wheel coal cars to
the mines now"
The total amount of anthracite coal
sent to market for the week ending
March s, as reported by the several
carrying companies, was AL, $50 tons,
compared with 4S3, 1856 tons in the CORES
ponding week last year. decrease of
1855 tons. The total amount of an
thracite mined thus far in the year 1890
was 1876 ,476 tons compared with $685.
40 tons for the same period last year, a
decrease of 575, 1874 tons.-Ledger.

Death of w. A. Grimes,

Friday morning the citizens of Free
land were startled at hearing of the
death of w. A. Grimes. The news of
his death coming so sudden caused many
to ask "how long had he been sick" A
few weeks ago he caught cold, and with
his usual push and attentiveness to bust
ness paid little or no attention to it, until
it became too apparent that he should
take to his bed. Then it was found that
the disease was of more serious nature
than his friends anticipated, and at 10
o'clock on Thursday night the end came.
He was young man, being but 30 years
of age, married and the father of two
children.
Being reared right here, and holding
the Office of Justice of the Peace for a
second term, he was thoroughly identi-
fed with everything that pertained to
the betterment of this section of the
country; and as such he possessed the
confidence of the whole people. His
funeral took place on Sunday last from
his late residence and was in charge of
Union Council No. 800, of the Legion of
Honor, of which he was a member.
The people of Freeland and surround
ing villages turned out in large numbers
to pay their last tribute of respect to
him. Among those from other towns
we noticed the following: Anthony Coll,
of Laurytown; P. Latham, L. P. Will
liams, Geo. w. Miller, Benz Clewell, J.
G. Eddy, E. P. Rouse, Samuel Harle-
man and Dan Rouse, of Weatherly;
Thomas Clemens and J. T. Mulhearn, of
Lansford; Hon. w. NJ. Rapsher and
Hon. Michael Cassidy, of Mauch Chunk;
Conrad Haas and George Lubrecht, of
Hazleton.
John d. Hayes has applied for letters
of administration on his estate.

The people of this town were very
much disappointed by not receiving their
pay on the 18th to make use of it on the

The young men of this place are
anxious to find out who the reporter is
that is giving them away. Keep still
and you will find out by and by.
A singular accident happened to one of
our boys few days ago, by which he
was almost debarred from the use of one
hand. He had been riding on a coal
wagon, and when getting off a ring at
tached to his finger was caught in a nail,
which dragged him a considerable dis
tance. He is at present laid up with the
wound. The above is an addition to the
many lessons of getting off and on mov-
ing cars and wagons, of which our boys
take much delight in doing. $. V,

2 months and % days.
The body struck by the street car at
Wilkes-Barre recently, as was mentioned
in our last issue, was identified as that

aggregating 100000, by the widows of
the late Nottingham disaster.
The South Pennsylvania Railroad
was sold in McConnellsburg on Saturday
to George F. Baer, of Reading, for the
sum of $500. The purchase is believed
to be in the interest of the Philadelphia
and Reading Railroad.
While descending man-way of the
Philadelphia Coal Companys Colliery,
at Lost Creek, Tuesday morning, Fore
man Heaton attempted to light his lamp.
An explosiod followed, which killed
Frederick J. Faltz and Charles Link,
miners, and, it is feared, fatally burned
Heaton.
John Moran was found dead in the
house of his uncle, Michael Murphy, at
Hokendauqua, on Saturday night. He

the various committees will draw their
supplies for distribution. Relief will be
extended to the needy in all parts of the
Wyoming Valley, and great quantities of
supplies will be required to meet the de-
mand. 1t is believed that the local con-
tributions will not suffice, and other
cities may be asked to aid.

Men Generally Do Not Fear to Die.

Sir Lion Playfair in a letter to
Junius Henri Browne. author of
paper with the above title says: "Hav-
ing represented large constituency
(the University of Edinburg) for seven
teen years as a member of Parliment, l
naturally came in contact with the
most eminent medical men in England.
/ have put the question to most of
them, Did you, in your extensive
practice, ever know a patient who was
afraid to dieP' With two exceptions
they answered No.
'One of these exceptions was Sir
Benjamin Brodie, who said he had seen
one case. The other was Sir Robert
Christian, who had seen one case, that
of girl of bad character who had a
sudden accident. l have known three
friends who were partially devoured by
wild beasts under apparently hopeless
circumstances of escape. The first was
Livingstone, the great African traveller,
who was knocked on his back by a lion,
which began to MUNICH his arm. He
assured me that he felt no pain and
that his only feeling was one of intense
curiosity as to which part of the body
the lion would take next. The next
was Rustem Pasha, now Turkish Am
bassador in London. A bear attacked
him and tore off part of his arm and
shoulder. He also assured me that he
had neither pain nor fear, but that he
felt excessively angry because the bear
gTunted with so much satisfaction in
munching him.
'The third case is that of Sir Edward
Bradford, an Indian officer now oc-
cupying high position in the Indian
Office. He was seized in a solitary
place by tiger, which held him firmly
behind the shoulder with one paw and
then deliberately devoured the whole
of his arm, beginning at the end and
ending at the shoulder. He was posi-
tive that he had no sensation of fear,
and thinks that he felt little pain
when the fangs went through his hand.
but is certain that he felt none during
the munching of his arm."~->r ),

A Dishonest Salesman.

Constable Gift on Saturday afternoon
served warrant on A.. G. Heiney, re-
siding at No. 224 North Seventh street,
charging him with embeZzlement, on
oath of Kleppinger & Kneer, the whole
sale grocers, by whom he was employed.
Heiney was taken before Alderman
Worman. He was unable to furnish bail
and was committed to prison for trial
Heiney is over fifty years of age and
was employed by Kleppinger & Kneer
since they have been in business, a
period of three or four years. He travel
led all through the Lehigh Valley and
in Monroe and Carbon counties. Last
September the firm got wind of the fact
that Heiney had failed to turn in be-
tween $500 and $400 which he had col
lected from their customers. AT Heiney's
earnest request they did not prosecute
him, but retained him in their employ.
Heiney promised faithfully to replace
the money. He failed to do so, but in
stead continued his pilferings, so that
the firm loses about $500. The firm then
determined to prosecute and Heiney is
now behind the bars. Heiney lost the
money in neutrality-suspicious. CIT,

Mr.. Heiney was well known in this
part of the country, having, for a mum
Der of years, conducted the large board
ing house (known as the Drifton Hotel

sympathy is expressed for him, as h,
was always considered a trustworth,

st. Patrick's Day Parade.

AS stated In the previous issues OF the
TTIBuNE, the annual parade of the Irish
Societies and Green Men of this section
of the country took place. The day
opened with every indication of March
storm, but tnrned out to be very fine be-
fore noon.
Mass was celebrated at St. AIMS
Church, by Rev. M. ]. Fallihee, promptly
at ten o'clock. After mass the Rev. Gen
tleman gave a very eloquent discourse on
the life and labors of st. Patrick; from
his landing in Ireland to his death, also
how the faith planted by him spread
even penetrated Europe, finally taking
root in this country. The Rev. Gentle
man advised his hearers to follow the
example of their Patron Saint, to be
ever vigilant in prayer and good deeds,
and predicted that if they persevered in
such practices that heaven would be their
reward.
AT the close of the mass the parade
was formed and took up the march as
follows:
st. AIMS Drum Corps.
st. AIMS 7. A. B. Pioneer Corps.
st. AIMS T. A. B. Cadets.
st. AIMS T. A. B. Society.
Kosciuszko Guards.
Young Mems Drum Corps.
Young Mems I. A. B. Society, Freeland
Jeddo Drum Corps.
Jeddo Green Men.
Eckley Drum Corps.
st. Mary's t. A. B. Cadets, Eckley.
st. Mary's L. A. B. Society, Eckley.
Green Men, of Eckley.
st. Patrick's Cornet Band.
st. Patrick's Beneficial Society, of Drift
ton.
The route as laid out by the committee
was followed, and the parade broke up
on Luzerne street, when all retired to
their homes satisfied that this was one
of the largest parades of its kind ever
held in Freeland.
Depierro's Orchestra gave ball in the
opera house, which was well attended.
The outgoing trains in the afternoon
took a number of our people to Hazleton.
VIM. A. Mulhearn acts the part of
Marshal for st. Patrick's Society like an
old veteran.
A lack of music was noticed at many
point along the route. This should be
avoided in future.
From the starting of the parade to its
finish everything was in unison with the
programme laid down.
There were a few horsemen in the
procession, which gave the small boy full
scope to follow the band.
Marshal O'Donnell of the st. AIMS
Pioneer Corps can ride and steer horse
as well as handle the throttle of the
"Iron" horse.
Daniel Boyle, of Jeddo, acted as
Marshal for the Green Men, and Barney
Carr looked after the interest of the
Eckley men in like capacity.
The st. Patrick's Cornet Band favored
the spectators with music suitable to the
occasion. Their latest quick step, "Caed
Mile Faltha," with its fine trio, was
rendered in good style. They done well
and received many fine comments from
strangers.
Many would prefer to see Rev. NJ. J.
Fallihee ON horseback, as in the good old
days of yore, instead of in the carriage.
They must not forget that time passes,
and that as he grows older he becomes
less active. But what is lacking in physi-
cal activity is made up in patriotism.
