New BERNE, n. c., June 9, 1892.
EDITOR TRIBUNE:-Memorial Day was
ushered in by beautiful sun and with
cloudless sky. Early in the day the
town was thronged with people, and old
veterans of 1861 came from all adia-
cent towns to do homage to the fallen
heroes of many hard fought battle.
The scars and broken limbs and warm
grasp of the hand and the fearful eye
were visible on all sides, either Federals
or Confederates. The National Gene
terry at this place holds in trust the
sacred bones of over 1850 of the Union
army. AT 2 o'clock John G.. Beecher's
Post, No. %, took the lead, followed by
the Sons Of Veterans, Women's Relief
Corps, Sunday Schools and number of
bands and other organizations.
An essay was read by Miss Sarah
Dixon and Miss Amanda Shaw entitled
''The Blue and Brave" and after grafton
services was through the procession was
soon in line and the mound of every
soldier was bedecked with flowers and
the emblem of their country. After
performing this sad duty the procession
moved for this town and dispersed, and
of such good order l was certainly sur
prised, for the National Cemetery is
situated about one and half miles
east of the city of New Berne, and the
procession reached from the city to
cemetery at four abreast and there was
fully 5000 people in line.

Day on the 10th ulti., twenty days

A WOman's Strange Death.

Probably the most remarkable occur
renee ever known happened in Dawson
Wednesday. Martha Roundtree, the
well known negro woman who kept q
restaurant at the south end of Main
street, now occupies grave at the ceme-
terry, the result of a sneeze. The ply
sicians of Dawson say that they have
never heard or read of similar case.
Wednesday the woman, as well as usual,
was Mt the restaurant attending to her
work. She had just left the rear of her
eating saloon and walked to the front
when she was attacked with an Excess
sive spell of sneezing and coughing.
She had been afflicted with hernia, and
the strain was so great as to burst hole
in her stomach. Surgical aid was called
in and her stomach sewed up, which
gave temporary relief. She fingered
until late Saturday afternoon, when she
died. The victim of this remarkable oc-
currence was large woman, weighing
46 pounds.-Savannah News.

Big Sheep Shearing.

Sheep shearing is now being pushed
rapidly, and most of the focks in the
valley have been shorn of their feecy
coats. Some big records have been
made in shearing, but the ten men
headed by o. H. Lane seem to take the
lead. They clipped $4,000 feeces in six
weeks. The best record for a single day
was made by G. o. Meager and L.
Palmer, who sheared 1856 each. Lane
will start in few days for Flagstaff,
where he and his band have work al
ready engaged to last three months
The clip this season is unusually good,
although the early winter drought killed
off large percentage of focks. Han
son Brothers, of Show Low, were among
the heavy losers, having lost $40 900
worth of sheep by death and strays.-

DRIFTON ITEMS,

For sometime past the residents of this
place have been in constant dread oi
something that was supposed to have
come back from the home of the dead
and many attempts have been made tc
learn the exact nature of the object
A few evenings ago this mysterious af
fair was cleared up by one of our young
men who has more than the ordinary
amount of courage. While at the real
part of the h0use.he saw a white object
going up the street, and from it wai
heard in low, weird, sepulchral tone
the familiar song "Maggie Murphy's
Home" He thought the object must
have surely come from the land of spirits
as this ballad has been dead for some
time. He gave chase and after a hard
race got close enough to see what it was
He turned, went home and sneaked tc
| bed. When asked about his adventure
the next day in the mines he said: ''1 hal
any person who could have the spooB
racket worked on them by young man
a white horse from Freeland and two
girls should prepare for the next world
without delay, as this was no place for
them"
About twenty students of mining and
civil engineering are here from Boston
college, and are trying to gain practical
knowledge of their profession. They
will never know the practical part of the
mining profession until they work two
weeks for four dollars and be able to
make it pay two weeks board at the rate
of SIS a month. This is the practical
| part of it.

The heavy rain of last week has been

er is not to be rebuilt. When it was
| torn down the wise men of this place
said that the new iron structure to be
erected in its place would cause scientific
men to come from all parts of the coun'
try to behold the wonderful mechanism
it contained, also to see the scientific
men who planned and built it. Since
then, however, it has become apparent
that its usefulness has gone to keep com
pany with the hall that was burned ,
few years ago, and that it was taker
down for good. A portion of it is ye
standing, and the wise men have came
to the conclusion that this will be uset
to screen the culm bank or left to thu
mercy of sparks from passing locomo

BASE BALL.

Umpire Bonner or Sunday awarded
the. game with the Painter Athletic As
sociation Club to Freeland with the usual
score, 20 to 0. The cause of this was the
visitors refusal to play after the seventh
inning, owing to misunderstanding
which; existed between the two man
ayers. In the fourth heavy rainstorm
took place and after it had cleared Man
ager :Hanlon proposed that they finish
1.-The game, making it seven innings, or
nine if the weather permitted. The cap
tain of the Painter Club claimed the
agreement called for only seven, and
when these were played he refused to
continue, the score then being to Z
against Freeland.
Anderson went in to throw for Free
land, but as he was late in arriving here
and had no time for practice it was seen
at once that he was not in condition.
After one hit was made and five men
sent to first on called balls he requested
that Welch take his place. This was
done, but the lead of seven runs the
visitors secured off Anderson made the
game one of the hardest uphill contests
seen at the park. Welch threw a good
steady game and succeeded in preventing
his opponents from punching their hits
and also from scoring another run.
Outside of the first inning, when both
clubs were somewhat off in their throw
ing to bases, the game was considered
good, and from all appearances Freeland
would have won easily had the nine in
nings been played. A number of pretty
plays and catches were made and the
two doubles of Freeland seemed to make
the Philadelphians aware that the peo-
pie of the coal regions know how to play
ball. Following is the official score:

UPPER LEHIGH NOTES,

:. The Tarriers Social Rock Club, after q
debate which covered three evenings

favor OF the affirmative. Fishermen and
the public in general will take notice
That fishing with a net is more produc-
tive than fishing with hook. The sub
lect of debate this week is, Resolved,
that lager beer is more offensive to the
nasal appendage than limburger cheese. !"
Much difficulty is isexperienced in procur-
ing speakers for the affirmative side, but
this will be overcome by initiating few
Prohibitionists. The Grand Tarrier is
to be elected soon and an exciting time
is anticipated. The members of the club
think the secrecy of the Baker ballot law
is not sufficient, so committee has been
appointed to confer with the gypsies en-
camped near Freeland and inquire into
their methods of conducting elections.
George McGee is doing jury duty this

The famous Solar Tips of Philadelphia
will make their first appearance in this
part of the state on Sunday afternoon.
People who haye interested themselves
in base ball are familiar with the reputa-
ton of this club, which has furnished
more professional players to the leagues
than any other single team in the
country. The manager of the Solar Tips
has sent word to advertise them as the
strongest club in that city, and says he
will ask nothing if his players are not
capable of giving an exhibition equal to
that of any professional nine. The game
will commence at p. NJ, with the usual
admission. Freeland's battery will
