The Jury Wheel Empty.

A special panel of jurors will have to
be made before the next jury is drawn
as the wheel is now nearly empty. At
the beginning of the year LOO names
were placed in the wheel and of these
1856 have been drawn and about fifteen
dropped on account of death or non-resi-
dency in the county, thus leaving in the
wheel but thirty names.
1t will be necessary to draw two juries
for two weeks of common pleas court in
November and more names will have to
be placed in the wheel.
Ninety-six jurors are required by the
balance of the year and it is probable
that at least seventy-fve more names
will be required before any juries are
drawn.
The special juries and double courts
OF common pleas have caused more
juries to be drawn than in the three
years, and in future instead of LOO
names being in the wheel 1000 will be
used. .-Ne,csdealer.

SmOthered In a Well.

Two little boys, John w. Davis, aged
years, and Robert Haswell, 10 years,
were suffocated by the gas in an aban-
doned and partially caved-in well on the
premises of the parents of the former.
David w. Jones, who discovered the
boys lying at the bottom of the we'll and
who attempted their rescue, was also
overcome and doubts are entertained as
to his recovery.
All three were taken ont by William
Edwards, an engineer at the GAYLORD
collery, who decended with rope tied
around his waist after dozen pails of
water had been thrown down to dissi.
pate the gas. The well had been dry
for some time and the sides had gradn.
ally fallen in until it was only about
fourteen feet deep and could be descend.
ed easily.
The top was partially covered and the
boys had been in the habit of going
down and playing "mine." No gas was
ever known there before, and probably
only found entrance through crack in
rock from the mines below. The boys
were exposed to the gas less than five
minutes before the rescue, and it was
not more than ten minutes before ali
three were taken out.

Clark 933, scattering 572 Republican plu-
rality this year, 4, $40, against 1855 in 1890.
In Augusta, Cleaves received 1,069 and
johnson 800, against Burleigh S3l and
Thompson 1923 in 1890.
The following dispatch explains itself:
Republican National Committee, 5lS Fifth
avenue, New York:
The total vote will be L., 600 less than in 1888
We elect all four congressman, carry fourteen
of the sixteen counties, have two-thirds of the
members Of the legislature and elect our gov
ernor by 1000 over the Democratic candidate
]. II. MANLEY
The Democrats have not been organized
before since 1882, when the Republican plu-
rality was less than 1900. The greatest
Democratic gain so far has been in the
city of Augusta, where the Republican plu-
rality of 2,570 in 1888 was reduced to /, ,792;
Lewiston also showed a Democratic plu-
rality of $50, gain of 27S. The smaller
towns heard from indicate that the Demo-
cratic gain in the cities is offset in the
country districts.
Freeport showed 122 majority, gain of
55 Republican votes, and eleven towns in
Waldo county, the home of Congressman
Milliken, show 211 Republican gain for
both state and congressional tickets.
Late advices to Chairman Manley indi-
Gated that ex-Speaker Reeds majority over
Ingraham will be 1000.

Reception at the Cottage.

Last evening large number of invit-
ed guests assembled at the Cottage Ii otel
hall, where grand reception was given
in honor of Lincoln Cunningham, of
Michigan, who is here visiting the mem
bers of his family and his many friends.
The committee who had the party in
charge made it one of the most enjoy
able and best arranged affairs that has
been held in Freeland for some time, a
fact which was not overlooked by those
present. Shortly after s o'clock DePier-
ros orchestra began rendering its choice
selections, to which the guests responded
with will until all were satisfied The
surrounding towns were well represent
ed, as the party numbered about forty
couples, all of whom did their utmost to
make it social success. At an early
hour this morning the guests left for
their respective homes more than pleas
ed with the evenings enjoyment.

zone of the Finest" which will be at
the opera house here tomorrow evening,
has proven itself really properly named,
and is one of the best comedy dramas on
the road. The dialogue is bright and
sparkling, the situations particularly
telling, and the dramatist has woven to-
gether story that is attractive from the
rise to the fall of the curtain. The
scenic effects are unusually elaborate
ami effective, every inch of scenery
used being carried specially by the COM
pany. The Central park and the pier
scenes merit special mention. The
mammoth tank is certainly strong fea-
ture; gondola boats, swan floats, tug
boats, ferry boats, etc., cross and recross
the stage with their loads of merry pas
sengers, while a score or more of urchins
disport themselves in the miniature
river. Manager Hassan brings with
him very strong and evenly balanced
company. and the entire cast can truth
fully be said to be good one. The play
is replete with pretty music, charming
songs, new dances, and all sorts of good
and pleasing things, and indications point
to very large business being done here
by this organization.

He VIII Buy a Ticket Next Time.

A drunken and profane blackguard, :,
who sought to bulldoze free ride from
White Haven to Hazleton, on Conduc-
tor Lawall's train, was taught well de-
served lesson on Monday, says the Plain
Speaker. When Mr.. laval, after leav-
ing White Haven, asked for ticket, he
insisted that he had paid his fare to the
conductor on the main line train, stating
that he gave him dollar. When it was
explained to him that this sum was the
exact fare, plus ten cents excess, from
Wilkes-Barre to White Haven and he
was asked to show his excess slip so that
it could be clearly proved to him, he be-
came very abusive and disgustingly
profane.
When the train reached Sandy Run,
Mr.. laval telegraphed for an off
GER. On its arrival here the fare was
again asked for and refused. The con-
ductor then called up the officer and
handed over to him the would be free
rider. He had little sauce with one of
the city aldermen, and in addition to
his fare, he paid $3.50 for the privilege
of having raised row on the train.

GaIIagher's Work Unsuccessful.

Constable Denis Gallagher, of Wilkes
Barre, who spent considerable portion
of his time i'll this vicinity recently, was
not so successful as he boasted he would
be in having alleged violaters of the
liquor laws punished. When the cases
of those whom he had arrested came
before the grand jury last week that
body could not see, according to the evil
dence furnished by I. H. Madden,
through Gallagher, where the law had
been violated, and the result was that
every one of the bills against them was
ignored. The following are the parties
whom Gallagher had lodged information
against: George Molinky, Mike Chiv-
anna, Mike Gilda, Andrew Hudock,
Emily Hudock, Mike Kleits, Peter Mog-
gonia, Joe Solenski, Mike Pstruchna,
Mike Postania, and John shigo.

NEW Works. REINFORCEMENT.


Dy the supreme Court.
BUFFALO, Sept. 1.-THE general term of
the supreme court handed down decision
affirming the opinion of Judge Rumsey, in
which the assembly apportionment made
by the last legislature was declared uncon-
stitutional Judge Macomber wrote a long
dissenting opinion. Judges Lewis and
Dwight each wrote opinions affirming the
opinion of Judge Rumsey. All three judges
are Republicans.
The majority opinion covers nearly the
same ground as that of Judge Rumsey
Among other things, Judge Lewis holds
that as the apportionment was made by the
same session of the legislature that made
the enumeration the apportionment was
clearly in violation of the constitution.
The provisions of that instrument with
reference to this matter are held to be man
datory and not advisory.
If, therefore, the extraordinary session of
last winter had no power to make an ap-
portionment no other extraordinary session
Of the present legislature can make valid
one. Unless this majority opinion is set
aside by the court of appeals it will prevent
the present legislature from being called in
extraordinary session between now and
election to make still another apportion-
ment

THE STATE GOES REPUBLICAN BY
ABOUT 10000 PLURALITY.

The Australian Ballot System Was Used

as far as learned everybody appears salts

their plurality was Is, 500. Comparison this
year will be made with the vote of 1890
