Hazleton ON Tuesday night When the train

only cancelled tickets. The box was worth a

if they could find it perhaps they would get
some trace of the thief but their search was

Congressman "Jack" Robinson, who was
the orator of the day here on Tuesday, is a
man of distinguished presence, but of very
unassuming manner. His smile is pleasant,
his grasp cordial and his greeting quiet,
but assuring and when the introduction is
made one feels at perfect ease in conversing
with him. He is dignifed in his bearing
but has the happy faculty of suiting himself
to his surroundings and makes all about him
feel as comfortable as he appears to be,
whether those he meets be the most dis
tinguished and wealthy in the town, or thosc
to whom the God of fortune has not cast 30
many showers lie appears to be man who
practices as he breaches, and elves for hu-
manity's sake" At the conclusion of the
ceremonies on Tuesday he remarked that
young woman named McNulty had been
maid in his family for many years and he
believed her home was in Shenandoah. The
maid he referred to was the daughter of Mrs
McNulty of South White street. a widow
who has resided in this town for over thirty
years. Upon learning this the Congressman
insisted upon going to see the widow and he
was taken to the house. The widow was not
only highly honored by the visit, but also
made happy when the Congressman said that
his family had always thought great deal
of her daughter.
Congressman Robinson is man who was
bnr wit bo l. st;n
He has had an eventful life and has Travelled
around the world. For many years he was a
seaman and also an officer in the navy. His
fund of information is an extensive one In
speaking of Shenandoah the Congressman
said he was very favorably impressed with
the town and its people and he considered it
treat to meet with a genuine miner, who
appears to be an object of SO much interest to
those who rarely or never visit the coal
regions. He said he had an idea of the dan.
ger attending the miners calling, but his
visit had shown that that idea was only a
faint one He thought the people here were
very sociable and good natured. Like many
others, there is a woman in this case. When
thanked by veteran for his services in
securing a speedy decision in pension case
for poor widow Mr.. Robinson Replied, "You
must thank my wife for that She did it,"
Mr.. Robinson will visit Shenandoah again
in the near future and spend week, bring
ing with him his charming wife and inter-
ing children. They may depend upon
hearty welcome, for the head of the family
won as many admirers on Tuesday as any
man could comfortably win within day.

Water supply Cut on.

The town was deprived of supply of
water this morning by break in the main
pipe. The break occurred where the pipe
runs along the rock bank of the Kelley Run
colliery and was caused by squeeze in the
mines. 1t was about o'clock when the
break was discovered and from that time
until nearly noon many parts of town were
without water. The connections which the
water company made with the Girard Estate
dams several months ago were called upon
for a supply and water was turned from that
direction for the first time. The break will
probably be repaired by tonight.

books without being charged with groundess
fears, Mains circus is the third to meet with
misfortune when within few days of filling
an engagement here. A few weeks ago Coup's
circus was billed, but was attacked by fire at
Mauch Chunk before it could fill the date;
Hurlburt & Huntings show was making its
way here and met with railroad accident;
and now Mains shows are destroyed in a
railroad wreck and its date for this place next
Monday is cancelled. But, then, the circus
and theatrical people are not as superstitious
as they were some years ago, and it may not
be long before the bill boards will be covered
again by the brilliant advertising paper of
some other greatest show on earth" 1t was
reported yesterday that Adam Forepaugh, Jr.,
will bring a show here in the near future.

&SSNS and Tuesday was no
SS&y exception to the rule.
Yesterday several constables were busy
executing warrants and they gathered in a
number of offenders. Among them were
Peter Worchacousky. He was before Justice
Monaghan on petty charge and also to
answer for larceny. Peter had boarded with
one Yodkois and became indebted to him for
board to the amount of $13. One Martin
Baltzer then assumed the debt and took the
debtor as a boarder. Worchacousky re
mained with Baltzer about week and then
disappeared, leaving the $13 and additional
board unpaid, and taking $50 belonging to
Mary Bunsavage, Baltzer's servant. Wor-
chacousky was held for trial on both charges.
stephen Turner was also among the arrests
last night. He and Anthony Yenowich
fought in their boarding house and Turner
knocked the other through window. The
latter remained in the lookup all night
and all of to-day, determined only to nav
for the broken window. Squire Monaghan
gave him until tonight to make up his mind
to pay the costs. If he does not do SO he
will go to Pottsville
Michael Burns got in trouble to-day. He
was drunk this morning and through pure
cussedness he smashed the windows of Mrs.
Ann shortall's house on West Coal street
with base ball bat He was placed in the
lookup to get sober and tonight will he

The average of these prices is $2.39.7 and
the rate of wages to be paid for the last two
weeks of May and the first two weeks of
June is three per cent. below the $3.50 basis.

doah collieries will resume operations on the

These two collieries require a combined

men and boys and therefore resumption of
work will bring revenue to this district that
will far more than counter-balance the re-
duction by reason of the percentage off the
basis. For the present it seems that the
people in this part of the region will have to
rejoice over whatever they can get and hope
for an improvement.

WAR UNDER WATER.


Search for Submarine Destroyer to Beg In
In Earnest.
WAsn1NGToN, March 12.It looks AZ II the
navy were ut last to have submarine boat.
The naval chief OF ordnance. Commodore
w. I. Sampson. will soon ask for designs
for this unique and useful form of war
craft. He is at liberty to use the money
which stands to the credit OF armor and
armament in building and experimenting
with the submarine boat.
Although the subject is not an untrisd
one, tho coming experiments are expected
to develop many new things. Subuquatio
craft have been tried with various degrees
Of success in this country and abroad. The
most acceptable of those tried is that
named Baker, and it was this boat
which spurred the department. TO go
further in the search for successful
submarine ship. The introduction OF elec-
tricity and the perfection of artificial ven-
tilation have mado submarine navigation
moro OF possibility within the last five
wears than it has ever before been. 1t la not
looked upon now rs impractical or gro-
tesque. Experts think the day ia not far
distant when navigation below the surface
| OF the water will be as effectively accom-
| pllshed rs sailing on the surface.
| Experiments have demonstrated that a
| ship can be constructed with a capacity for
eubmerRinR itself and moving through the
water. 1t has been further demonstrated
that its course NAV be controlled while
under the surface. Now that the navy has
funds at its disposal u practical search for
and development Of n successful submarine
boat will be commenced. 1t will be one Of
the most interesting questions Of the new
administration.
