full capacity and everybody is apparently
happy.

visit to her native home, North Wales, in

decided to go to Hazleton next Septem-
Der to attend the musical eisteddfod
which will be held at that place.
Lemuel Morgan, miner at No 6 col
liery, Upper Lehigh, was slightly injured
on Tuesday morning. While pushing
truck of timber he was caught between
the truck and prop and bruised about
The arm and hip.
Harry Waldron received serious in
iurics in No. coliery on Monday by
falling coal. Atthis writing grave doubts
are entertained of his recovery; but it is
to be hoped that his strong constitution
and the skillful treatment of DR.. Neale

1t is rumored in sporting circles that
two prominent members of the Upper
Lehigh Athletic Association tried to per-
form the extraordinary feat of carrying
a live COW from South Heberton to Upper
Lehigh last Sunday evening to the great
amusement of the young ladies who
were promenading with escorts on the
thoroughfare known as "No. road !"
They evidently found an "Original Pack
age"
The condition of the windows in the
Foster school building is anything but
creditable to the school director in charge
and a sad commentary on the home
training of the youthful rowdies of this
place. For some reason unknown to the
writer the shutters on one window were
left open at the end of the school-term
and have remained so ever since with
a result that should be seen in order to
be understood.
Thomas, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Mich
ael Doggett, aged 13 years, who has
been afflicted with heart trouble for
some time past, breathed his last on the

spected residents, who have raised q
family of twelve children of whom
eleven survive. The sympathy of friends
and neighbors are with them in their
hour of affliction. Interment at St..
AIMS on Saturday.
The Upper Lehigh Base Ball boys APP
pear to good advantage in their new
sullS, lllel feCenU Victory over Jn0
Soapies has infused some enthusiasm into
them. We have some good players, and
with little care in management and Sc.
lection they will become formidable
rivals of any amateur club on the noun
tain. Boys cease apeing professionals
Ape Jim Goulden and find the ball
Jim is good enough for present purposes
The anglers of this place are reapinl
a rich harvest on the Obey and Nescopec
Michael Mulligan, David r. Davis and
Jimmy Welch head the successful list
Speaking of fishing reminds us of con
undrum propounded by a hopeful young
American last evening, While discuss
ing the art of scientific angling with {
few ardent knights of the rod a rea
specimen of the ten-year-old native
dressed in his elder brothers pants and
| his fathers 1880 campaign cap, inter.
rupted by asking, "Whats the difference
between David r. Davis and the average
| Freeland Fisherman ?" We confessed
our inability to see where any material
difference could exist, when the young
American insisted that a difference did
exist, and when requested to explain
he said "that Davy r. caught trout with
his rod and reel and put them in his
basket, while the Freeland anglers caught
trout with their mouth and put them in
! the papers. p. DUrF,
