Electric light matters are at tempor-
airy standstill just at present. The COM
pany is waiting to hear from some of the
parties who furnish electrical supplies,
and in case none are soon received the
committee intends to advertise in the
Electrician and Scientific american for
proposals to erect plant and other
necessary fixtures. The committee ap-
pointed to procure ground has not yet
made any arrangements for site. A
number of the stockholders are in favor
of organizing permanently, as they be-
lieve business could be done with bet
ter satisfaction if charter was secured
and that the remaining stock, about
$4,000 worth, would be disposed of with
out any further trouble. AS the borough
contract for lighting will expire within
a year many fear that the electric light
company will fail to receive il unless the
stockholders get down to business.

Charged With Perjury.

John D. Boyle, of Harwood, and
Patrick ODonnell of Drifton, were
arrested ON Tuesday upon warrants
sworn out by L. A. Oberrender, who
charged them with committing perjury
about year ago. Mr.. O'Donnell's s
father and Mr.. Boyle were supervisors
of Halle Township a few years ago.
The cases arc almost similar, and the
formers is about as follows: When the
auditors were at work upon the town
ship books Mr.. O'Donnell went before
them and certified to certain amount
of work for horse used on the roads.
He subsequently sued the township for
the amount, which is nearly $500, and
obtained judgement against the dis
trict.
Mr.. Oberrender alleges that when he
certified before the auditors he commit
ted perjury and that the horse was own
ed by his father. Both men were
placed under S2500 bail, which was
Immediately furnished, and the hearing
will take place at 3 P. M. tomorrow
before Squire Longshore, of Hazleton.
Mr.. O'Donnell is not in any way excit-
ed over the charges preferred against
him and is confident of being acquitted
if the case goes to trial. The most anus
ing part of the whole affair was the i'm
posing manner in which the warrant was
served upon him. He is employed on
the ID. S. & S. and was taken off his train
near Hazleton by Coal and Iron Police
man Seiwell and Cook, who went about
the matter as if they were trying to cap
ture band of outlaws.

"a Yard of Pansies."

Here is chance for everybody to get,
free of cost, an exquisite oil picture,
thirty-six inches long, companion to
"a Yard of Roses" which all have seen
and admired. This exquisite picture,
"a Yard Of Pansies," was painted by
the same noted artist who did the
"Roses." 1t is the same size, and is
pronounced by art critics to be far
superior to the "Roses." The repro
duction is equal in every respect to the
original, which cost $500, and is being
given free with every copy Of the June
number of Dem0resfs Family Magazine,
This June number is a grand souvenir
number in celebration of the seventieth
anniversary of the birthday of the
publisher, and is worth many times the
cost, which is only twenty cents, as
every purchaser will get, practically free,
an exquisite picture; and to those who
already have "a Yard of Roses "a
Yard of Pansies" will be doubly valu-
able, especially as accompanying it are
full directions for framing either the
"Pansies'' or "Roses" at home, at a cost
of few cents. You can get the June
number of DemOrests Family Magazine,
containing "a Yard of Pansies," of any
local newsdealers; or send twenty cents
to the publisher, w. Jennings Demorest,

LAW MAKERS MEET.
Interesting Special Session of
FreeIand's Council.
DISCUSSIONS AGAIN BOB
UP TO DISTURB THE PEACE OF
THE BOROUGH FATHERs-A HIGH
CONSTABLE FINALLY SELECTD.

The borough council met in special ses-
sion on Monday evening, Messrs. De-
Pierro, DOORS, Fritzinger, Rutter and
Williamson being present. The minutes
of the two preceding meetings were read
and approved. Surveyor MackPs bill
for drawing profiles and surveys was or
derded paid, the amount being $20.50.
His resignation as borough surveyor was
accepted and goes into effect at once.
A communication from the borough
solicitor in reference to the extension
of Pine Street was read and laid over
That official was instructed to attend to
the matter of opening up sidewalks on
Centre Street, from Walnut to Chestnut,
also on the west side of Ridge Street,
from Main to South. in the event of the
conference of the coucil committee and
the property owners failing to agree.
A. b. Welch was present and stated he
had made contract to place fence
along his Ridge Steet property, but he
would be willing to postpone any work
on it until the committee reports.
The solicitor was instructed to try and
procure the deed of the Firemens Park
from Coke Bros. & Co., and also a deed
for the right of way of the sewer through
the company's land. He was also order
ed to push the outstanding liens against
property owners for non-payment of put
ting down sidewalks.
Street Comm ssioner Boyle presented
his semi-monthly report of work done
under him as follows: On streets, 81. so;
on sewers, $349.03; hauling pipes, $12;
total, $368.53. The report was accepted
and ordered paid. The commissioner
stated that in laying pipes at the inter-
section of Front and Centre Streets it was
necessary to take up some of the pipes
belonging to DePierro Bros. private
drain. He had connection made from
their cellar to the sewer and asked for
instructions as to whether he would
charge them for the cost. The council
decided that inasmuch as the pipes had
to be removed in order to put in the
sewer the borough should pay for the
work.
The appointment of high constable
next came up. There was only one ap-
plicant, David Marley, and he was given
the position. He was also appointed
janitor, his duties and salary to be the
same as those of his predecessor. The
lockout committee was ordered to ex-
anime Mr.. Marley's bond and also the
agreement for janitor's duties.
Burgess Gallagher reported that he
has a team at work cleaning up the alleys
of the borough. The council then ad-
jouoned to meet on Saturday evening,
May 28, when the remaining bonds will
be disposed of.

case which occurred few days ago. 1t
says: civilian Seiwell, a coal and iron
policeman, arrested Hungarian at
Stockton and tied the man to his sulky

mountains to Freeland, about six miles.
The man was dragged behind the sulky

ner. We protest against such manner
of treating prisoners no matter what
crime may be charged nor what their
nationality may be. A case like this
makes it seem that we need more So
ciety for the prevention of cruelty to
prisoners than we do one for the preven-
tlon of cruelty to animals" The case
was certainly one of the most inhuman
heard of for some time, and the people
here were not very bashful in express
ing their disapproval. Had it been later
in the day it is doubtful if Seiwell and
Supt. John Wagner could have dragged
the Hun through the streets as they did.

House. They lost all their stage cos
tunes, band instruments and clothing,
saving that which they wore from the
opera house to the hotel. The only
thing which saved the adjoining square
from ruin was light rain which was
falling at the time. AS it was, the resi-
dence of William Lauderbach, the Evan
gelical Church and number of other
buildings were on fire, and it was with
much difficulty they were saved. The
guests of the Valley Hotel escaped with
out injury.
The only person injured was member
of the Waite Company, who fell down
pair of stairs and sprained his ankle
Four fine horses owned by the machin-
cry and supply company perished in the
flames. The fremen were hampered
considerably by an inefficient supply of
water, the mains being entirely too small
for present purposes. The same difficult
ty was experienced in other fires which
occurred there recently.

The Points Coming In.

The question of annexing the Five
Points to the borough has been quietly
agitated by several of the property own
ers and business men of that section of
the town during the past few weeks.
When the attempt was made to carry
out this plan few years ago the opposi-
tion manifested by a number of people
was found too strong. AS it would make
a difference of $75 per year to the saloon
keepers there to be in the borough il is
but natural that they were dead against
rnything that savored of annexation.
AT present, however, some of the leaders
of the movement are those who formerly
opposed it, and out of the thirty or
thirty-five saloon-keepers in the Points
more than one-third are now working
for annexation. The business men are
solidly in favor of it, and have literally
subscribed to the fund being collected to
pay the expenses of an attorney who
will appear before the court with the Pc
tition.
The amount of territory to be annexed
does not include as much as it should,
but whether it comes in piecemeal or as
whole it will all get here before long,
The map which is being prepared in
cludes all the land south from South
Street to the end of the Lehigh Valley
Company's property, which is about
twenty feet below the station; on the
east to the alley rear of Adams Street,
and on the West to the alley rear of Fern
Street. This leaves out what is known
as the Coke Addition, Rag Row, the base
ball park and all adjacent land. 1t was
not considered advisable to include the
last named places, all of which are own
ed by Coke Bros. & Co., for fear the coal
company would enter protest. AS it is
the Drifton operators are in favor of the
moment, aud have given the committee
considerable aid this week by allowing
their maps to be used and furnishing
statistics, etc. There is scarcely any
doubt but that the annexation move
ment will be successful.

Hazleton's Big Blaze.

The Hazleton Grand Opera House
took fire at A O'Clock Saturday morning
and in an hour the whole building was
burned to the ground. The fire originat-
ed in the dressing room and the cause
is unknown, but it is supposed to be the
work of an incendiary. In a short time
the Lehigh Valley freight depot, the
large building and stable of the Hazleton
Machinery and Supply Company, the
Valley Hotel, one of the finest hotels in
town, Richards beer refrigerator, Boh-
lander's livery stable, DR.. Bowman's
residence and Office and the office of
Keonig & Co., dealers in organs, were
soon in flames, and all, excepting the
hotel and the machinery and supply
company's store were destroyed.
The total loss is estimated as follows.

A Great Story.

"The Scarlet LETTER." Nathaniel
Hawthorne's most celebrated story, and
one of the most famous in American
literature, up to few weeks ago cost,
in cheapest cloth binding, Sl.00, or in
paper, 50 cents. We have just received
a very neat and thoroughly well made
cloth-bound edition from John b. Alden,
Publisher, New York, which he sells for
20 cents, plus cents for postage, if by
mail; the same in paper covers he sells
for 10 cents, postpaid. His catalogue
of choice books, over 100 pages, which
he sends to any one for 2-cents postage,
is literary curiosity, which every book
buyer ought to have, of course. His
publications are not sold by booksellers,
but only direct. Address, John b.

FOx's Heavy Sentence.

Ex-Tax Collector Jacob Fox, of Fos-
ter, who pleaded guilty to the collection
of illegal taxes, was sentenced by Judge
Woodward to pay fine of $500. In
default of payment he will be compelled
to spend about two years in prison. He
is in the county Jail at present, and it is
stated by his friends that the end is not
yet, as they intend to have the sentence
moderated or to test its legality. The
case has attracted much attention since
the arrest of the Foster and Halle col
lectors, and the heavy sentence wss a
surprise to everyone.
