at the Freeland Cemetery fitting adj
dress was delivered by John d. Hayes,
Esq The business places and private
residences were profusely decorated with
the national colors, and on Centre Street
the long lines of bunting and starry BAN

Messrs. Hayes, Lenahan and Lynch,
attorneys for Thomas Gaifney, have
brought suit against Markle & Co. for
$4,000 damages for the death of Patrick
Gaffney, who was killed at No. 2 High
land on April 81. In his statement Mr..
Gaffney says that his son, who was only
thirteen years of age, was employed in
the breaker as a slate picker. The
defendants without his knowledge or
consent took him from his place as slate
picker and gave him charge of a con
veyor used TO carry coal from the break ker
to the boiler house. While discharging
this duty the boy was caught in the
chain, and received injuries which re-
suited in his death. The plaintiff has
prepared to give the company strong
fight for their negligence in killing the
boy. Several Photographic views of the
accident and its surroundings have been
taken and if there is any justice in the
law Mr.. Gaffney's attorneys will try to
obtain it.

Killed by an Engine.

Donate DeLuca, Hazleton Italian
was killed at Stockton Wednesday even
ing. He was employed with the repair
men along the Lehigh Valley road. He
and several of his countrymen had just
before the time of accident stepped out
of the way of a passing engine. Another
engine followed and DeLuca, it appears,
did not hear it coming and while cross
ing the track was knocked down by the
tank, the engine passing over him. De-
Luca has worked on the road for thir-
teen years. At the request of several
of DeLuca's countrymen Deputy Coroner
Buckley held an inquest and the jury
last evening returned verdict of accl-
dental DEATH

The Sentinel denies the report regard
ing the Evans Mining Company and its
breaker boys, viz: that the latter had
been notified to leave one-half their
earnings at the company's store. The
article was circulated by the Beaver
Meadow correspondent of the Weatherly
HeraM and was reprinted and comment
ed upon by the TRIBUNE. The Sentinel
states the rumor is without foundation,
and unless the Beaver Meadow party
can prove it otherwise the Herald should
procure more reliable newsgatherer,
for the item has been copied extensively
throughout other sections of the coal
region and, if false, does great injustice
to the Evans Company.

A Priest Who Cures Blindness.

An Associated Press dispatch from
Pittsburg to-day says that "Rev Father
Mollinger, the faith-healing priest of
Troy Hill, who mixes great deal of
medicine with the faith of his patients,
is reported to have completely cured of
total blindness a boy who went to his
retreat nine days ago. Several other
wonderful cures were made recent
ly." John Nelly, Patrick Dougherty,
Bernard Gallagher, Mrs. VIM. Brogan,
Miss Jane Dougherty and others left

Short as the notice was to play Larks-
vile it was discounted at 10 P. M. Satur-
day night by the Cooling Club of Phila-
delphia which dispatched from Catasau-
qua that it was coming the next day.
Manager Hanlon had been trying to
secure either the Highland, Forrest,
Bradford or Cooling, all of Philadelphia,
for Sunday game, but could not get a
definite reply from any of them in time
to advertise a game. The Cooling Club
arrived, but after an Intellectual attempt
to secure players Freeland preferred to
forfeit the game rather than place an in
ferior team on the field. This was very
much regretted by the audience, as the
public was anxious to see what kind of
ball the Quaker City boys would put up.
Some very important business will be
considered by the Freeland Association
at its next meeting relative to players
and games. The management states
that the public need have no fear of any
further disappointment when games are
to be played. The Association intends
to sign several new players who will
bring back to Freeland the prestige it
held in former years.
Sunday afternoon at Mt. Pleasant the
game between the Tigers and the club
at that place was interrupted by a show
er in the third inning. Neither side
scored in the first and in the second Mt.
Pleasant made three runs and the Tigers
five. The prospects were favorable for
heavy hitting and a large score when
| the rain interfered.
At Lehighton Drifton will play two
games ON the Fourth. Freeland will
play at home, probably two games, and
/ Manager Hanlon is negotiating with a
well-known club of Philadelphia for
that day.
Willles-Barr completed its straight
dozen victories by defeating Scranton
Saturday morning, and was whipped by
the same club that afternoon. Freeman,
the 'phenom," pitched both games.
~
Jennings made his debut at Louisville
on Monday. The club was defeated,
but it was not any fault of Hughey's.
He played short and accepted eight
chances without an error.

An Aristocratic Wedding.

Promptly at II o'clock yesterday the
marriage of Alex. b. Coke and Miss
Sarah F. White was solemnized by Rev.
J. P. Buxton at the residence of the
BRIDES parents, Drifton. The groom is
the son of Henry B. Coke, of New York,
and the bride is the eldest daughter of
]. B. White, comptroller of Coke Bros.
& Co. Quite number of guests from
New York and Philadelphia were pres
ent at the ceremony, and the couple re-
ceived many handsome and costly gifts
from their relatives and friends. Upon
their return from the bridal tour they
will reside at Eckley. Depierro's Or

discoursed several selections of their

Foster township school board organ
lied on Monday evening by electing
2: II. Hanlon President and Robert
Oliver Secretary. The vote for treasurer
resulted in a tie, three members voting
for Thos. McIlugh and three for Geo
Meneeley. Another meeting was held
last evening and several ballots were
cast without arriving at a choice. The
deadlock will probably be broken at the
next meeting.

BASE BALL.

On Friday the Larksville Club sent
word that they would be here Saturday
afternoon, and upon this short notice
much difficulty was found in placing a
team on the field against them. Free
land players were out of town or unpre-
pared to play, but with the assistance of
the Tigers nine was gathered. Welch
pitched a good steady game until the
seventh inning, when Larksville punched
their hits and Freeland assisted them
with errors in scoring four times, giving
them lead which was not regained.
