Street Commissioner Boyle presented
his report for labor on the sewers. 1t
amounted to $436.13, and was ordered
paid.
The question as to what name should
be given to the land donated by Hon.
Eckley B. Coke aroused much discussion.
At present the ground is known as Fire
mems Park, and on motion of Frank
DePierro and DIR. E. w. Rutter it was
decided that henceJorth it shall be call
ed Freeland Public Park
The street commissioner was instructed
to continue the sewers on Ridge street
north from Walnut to the borough line
as soon as the section he is now working
on is completed.
Messrs. Williamson, DePierro and
Rutter were appointed to prepare an or
dinance defining certain time by which
property owners can have free connec-
tion with the sewers, otherwise to pay
for all connections after the time expires.
They were requested to have it ready
for the next meeting, and to offer sug-
gestions or ordinances upon any other
matters, such as sidewalks and the gen.
erdl improvement of the borough.
The stones obtained from the sewer
excavations, such as are suitable for
breaking on the streets, are to be remov-
ed to some place in the park until they
can be used, and the surplus clay is to
be disposed by the street commissioner
to the best advantage,
High Constable Marley's resignation
was taken up and accepted. There be-
ing no applications for the Office of high
constable and janitor the positions are
still open for proposals.
A committee was appointed to confer
with the proberty owners on the south
side of Walnut street, from Washington
to Pine, and see if their consent cannot
be procured to donate enough ground
for sidewalk and the borough would
put in concrete and cutters.
The council then adjourned until Au-

A seldler Drowned.

II is with feeling Of deepest sorrow
We are called upon to chronicle sad
event that occurred last Wednesday,
on the arrival Of the steamer Cakes,
with the returning troops from the
mines. just a. the first whistle was
blown for landing, man was seen to
throw up his hands, turn round once
or twice and fall overheard. The cry
man overheard was given, the boat
was Immediately stopped and small
boat lowered to pick up the unfortu-
nate man who was only seen once af-
ter he fell into tho water. After a
half hours fruitless search tho Cakes
steamed into port with her Union
Jack At half mast, which told too plain
ly that some terrible accident had
happened. On interviewing a re-
turned soldier we learned that private
Sweeney, Of Co. II, had fallen over
board while suffering from catalep tic
ft. The poor little children who had
como down to the dock to welcome
their papa on his return, were told
that their papa had remained in Ward
ner. To see the look Of disappoint-
ment ON those little faces was sad
enough, and no one wanted to see
them when they we're told the bitter
truth. The death OF Mr.. Sweeney
leaves widow and six little children
70 mourn the loss of g husband and
father.

Jason Goodrich of Rich Hill, Conn.
has been struck by lightning five time
and still lives. And the strokes wer'
no love taps. Once he lay uncon
scious for two days from the shock
and on another occasion his beard wal
burned of and he was picked up TO
dead.
He also has war record wortf
Boosting Of; carries three bullets ir
his body that came from rebel guns
and was obliged to have one Of hi
legs amputated on account of horse
falling on it and crushing it when he
was . cavalryman.
He got bis first shock at the age Of
fifteen. 1t killed two COWS by which
he was standing and paralyzed him
for few days. In the army the
lightning knocked his gun from bis
band and twisted it, but Jason sur
viyed. His next stroke came while
he was on load Of hay in 1872. Il
burned the hay and al Of his hair and
beard, but he got over it. The next
summer he had m experience that
went long way toward convincing
him that he was q marked man.
He had been taught from q boy to
bellows that feathers were protec-
tion against lightning, and though he
felt as II it was little bit cowardly,
when the frs: thunder storm of that
summer came up be yielded to the
entreaties OF bis wife to come into the
house and take refuge OH feather
bed. Tho lightning got there just
the same, though it had to come down
the chimney to get At him, and this
time he was helpless for two weeks.
The last stroke caught him during the
recent hested term. He was in the
barn; there was . storm and Jason
was found senseless on the floor. His
watch was partially melted. That's
all that is known as yet, for Jason is
> little slow in coming to.

Congressional Dr1mker1 In FOrmor
Days.
The recent ridiculous einvestiga-
ton" Of alleged inebriety on the part
OF member Of the House of Repre-
sentatives from Alabama serves as a
reminder of the great change that has
come over the habits of the public
men since the war. Senator Morrill,,
Of Vermont, once said that when he
was a member of the House Of Rep
resentatives prior to 1861 there was
never an hour OF congressional session
that some member of that body could
not he seen under the influence OF
liquor. In those better earlier days
there was always number OF bibu-
lous members who were more or less
drunk all the time, and generally
more or less qusrrelsome. They re-
quired the constant attention OF
friends, and violent scenes frequently
resulted. The correspondents gallery
did not exist in those days. There
we're writer's for the press who attend
ed the sessions part Of the time,
but telegraphic reports of the incl
dents of the day we're unknown, and
many things happened which never
reached the public ear. To-day the
Senator or member who calls aloud
on the floor OF the chamber for drink
Of whisky soon discovers that his re-
mark has reached the ears OF CT, OOO,-
600 people. The use Of liquor in
former days was not confined to the
members of any one party or from
any one section Of the country. The
Republican party in its first years
produced some Of the jolliest lnebri-
ates that were ever known. Bob
Toombs, who was one Of the greatest
sinners in the old days, had an able
successor as Bacchanalian in Nye,
of Nevada, and Sprague, of Rhode
Island, contributed some decidedly
maudlin pages to the Globe in the
seventies. Yates, of Illinois, was an
other CROKER Of the elbow, who made
spectacle OF himself at times. No
legislative assembly in the world suf-
fers less from the intoxication of its
members in these days than the Con-
gress OF the United States.
