BASE BALL.

The base ball season will open here
OH Sunday next, Wilkes-Barre being
the opponents of the home club. AL
though the park is not yet in the condi-
ton it will be when completed, it was not
thought advisable to delay the opening
game any longer, and at 3 o'clock the
strong team from the county seat will
commence the season. The rivalry be-
tween the visitors and the home clnb
continued at fever heat all through last
summer, and it may be taken for grant
ed that it has not abated any during the
winter months. The battery for Free
land is Anderson and Brady, and Wilkes
Barre will have Freeman and Zeller.
1t is unnecessary to say anything of
either battery-both are well known in
this section as ball players well worthy
to be pitted against one another. Usual
admission.
Lansford has an association compos-
ed of many of the prominent men of the
town, and is preparing to organize first
class club. Over $500 was raised last
week and work has commenced upon the
park fence. The grounds are 350x400
feet.
GAINESVILLE defeated Mahanoy City
on Saturday by score of Is to s, and
the Hazleton Y. M. G. A. were beaten
at Pottsville, II to Z.
The difficulty of procuring employ
ment for well-known players who wish
to wear Freeland uniform this season
is Manager Hanlon's greatest obstacle in
placing before the public such an aggre-
CATION of base ball talent as has seldom
been signed by any amateur club in the
state. Applications continue to pour in
from evewhere, but the field of employ
ment being limited here it is impossible
to secure for the men the situations they
wish.

"Ledger's" Coal Report.

The anthracite coal trade is quiet and
without any new feature worthy of es-
pecial mention. The general condition
of the trade is in excellent shape. The
demand for coal is rather good for this
season of the year, and prices every
where are fully maintained at the new
circular figures. The markets are alb
sorbing all the newly mined coal, and
the output is increasing There is uni
versal confidence in the stability of the
new prices, and shopping for coal is a
thing of the past. Heretofore, in sea-
sons of dullness or only moderate ac-
tivity of the anthracite trade, it was the
custom of dealers and large consumers
to go from one corporation or wholesale
dealers office to another seeking coal
from the lowest seller. Now dealers and
consumers are simply sending in their
orders for coal without questioning the
prices. AT present the buying of coal
is only for immediate requirements, and
the production is regulated to large ex.
tent by the necessities of manufactures
The total amount of anthracite oal
sent to market for the week ending
April 80, as reported by the several car
rying companies, was 7S3, $3.50 tons, com
pared with 7S0, ,101 tons in the cores
ponding week last year, an increase O.
1919 tons. The total amount of anthra
cite mined thus far in the year of 1S9:
was 12,044 ,410 tons, compared with IL,
OS1 1857 tons for the same period in 1891
an increase of 962, 743 tons.

work that is to be had in this vein.
A number of young men are seen per-

evening from Freeland. They appear to
be honorable, gentlemanly and all that
sort of thing, but the people of this place
will not 60 to sleep while there are stran-

UPPER LEHIGH NOTES.

The monthly pay system will begin
again after the 14th. The Freeland
merchants is the cause of all this,
because they have attended to the wants
of the people here so faithfully that the
company store of this place, with its
grab-all system, has not been reaping
the enormus profits that it did hereto
fore. Wonder if the Freeland merchants
would help to right the wrong they did
us. L. A. 1886, K. of L., has not been
heard from on this question yet, but as
there are lot of old reprobates here
who pretend to be glad of it, since the
company said 80, it will be pretty hard
for the Knights to do anything.
Patrick Duffy, of White Haven, spent
Sunday here with his parents.
Miss Annie McHugh, of Lattimer, who
has been visiting friends here, returned
home on Monday.
George MCGEE and wife, attended the
funeral of Patrick Heron at Hazleton,
on Monday.
The base ball season is at hand and
some of our boys are making desperate
attempt to get in condition. At present
our boys say they are open for anything
in lower Luzerne.
The Soapies will picnic at Freeland on
May 20. Quite number of young men
from here belong to that association.
A few of our young men attended a
select party at Lattimer a few evenings
ago. They fingered there until an early
hour and had the best of patience, but
"She never came back"
Ii is said that John Lesser, better
known as German" is going to take
charge of the dancing school of this
place.
On Monday evening there was quite
a commotion here among onr people, and
a number thought something terrible
had happened. 1t was only some of the
base ball boys who had taken the bell
out of the school house and went up and
down the street ringing for the president
or vice president to come and call the
meeting to order.
1t may be news for the members of the
game clnb to know that the laws in re-
gard to fishing are at this early part of
the season openly violated at the Honey
hole. These men who use nets there
would do well to take warning. You
may be able to watch the fish warden,
perhaps the game club, but you can't
watch everybody. MIKE.

4 Sumter couht5 e.a) farmer, having
accumulated some property, decided
that he wanted to yet married. He
went to Ameii"rs shortly aftcrward and
made known ms desire to well known
merchant The latter = reed to help
him all he could and na- I'd over several
good looking women whom he thought
would make good and faithful wives.
Among others he mentioned two buxom
and comely widows of the same name.
The matrimonially inclined farmer
decided that he wished to wed one of
the widows. His mercantile friend
agreed to do the negotiating, and short
ly afterward called upon a certain lady
and informed her Of the honor his BASH
| full friend wished to confer upon her.
The widow, knowing that the farmer
was blessed with pretty good share of
this worlds goods, expressed, without a
moments hesitation, her willingness to
join her lot with his.
Preparations were at once made for
the wedding. The day arrived and the
prospective groom procured marriage
license and started for the home of the
future partner of his joys and sorrows.
Just here the funny part of the affair
came in.
The farmer had never seen either of
the two widows. Both bore the same
name and he got them mixed up in his
mind. The result was that he went to
the wrong house. When he found him
self alone with the lady he blurted out,
I've come to marry you"
After moments hesitation the widow
confessed that she didn't care if she did
"step OFF, with him. They accordingly
proceeded to a preachers house, where
the twain were made one.
A few days afterward the newly mar
ried planter came to the city and went
to look for his friend. He was telling
him of his newly found happiness, when
the merchant suddenly exclaimed with
a groan:
"Merciful heavens, mani You mar
ried the wrong widowr'
"Oh, that don't make any difference"
was the reply. "Fm very well pleased
with the wife I've got. "-Exchange.

WASHINGTON, ID. G., July s.

amended to cure the defects. A

act could not be made retroactive
therefore no amendment Is neces-

WASHINGTON, ID. G. July 5.-Re.

preserve in the repeal of the act of
1890 the legal tender quality of
corn notes issued under and by
authority of the secretary of the trea-
sury to redeem. The effect of the
senate bill, he says will, be demone-
tize more than $80,000,0O0 in coin
notes and postpone redemption un.
til Congress authorities it. The
house will be compelled to amend
the bill and this session may be pro-
longed.
