MIR. LAUDERMAN SURPRISED.
\ Large Gathering at His Residence Last
Evening


Daniel Lauderman, outside foreman at the
Kohinoor colliery, quietly celebrated his 5lth
anniversary few days ago and having
heard of it his friends who are legion, de-
cided to follow it up with a jolly surprise,
Accordingly last evening they all stormed
the residence and a royal welcome they
received. Mr.. Lauderman is as wide-a-wake
as he is generous and popular, and when his
larder is found empty there is indeed some-
thing wrong. Last night everything was all
right and the larder was well stocked, While
the Grant Band was playing its excellent
selections in the garden the family was busy
inside preparing the refreshments, which
were wet and dry and plentiful. As soon as
the surprising party was seated within the
hospitable walls and the last notes of the
band died away Mr. William Trezise stepped
up to Mr.. Lauderman and in very graceful
little address presented him with a hand
some gold watch chain and locket, and an
old-fashioned German lOng-stemmed pipe
with long, prettily decorated china bowl.
The gifts were tokens of esteem and ap.
probation, and in receiving them Mr..
Lauderman was much affected He was not
prepared to make a speech, but said he
would continue to do unto his friends IS he
had tried to do in the past-treat them as
man should treat man. Then the band
played again and more refreshments were
passed around. Music by the band, violin,
organ and vocal selections made the next few
hours pass delightfully."-, and shortly before
midnight the visitors took leave of their
host wishing him many more anniversaries
Among those who were present in addition
to the members of the Grant Band were
Messrs. t. j. James, George Skeath, John
Trezise, William H. Baker, Morris Brown,
Richard Reese Thomas Stodt, John Buckley,
John Williams, James Glover, Martin Mona
CHAN, Joseph Long, William T. Trezise w. J.
Watkins Andrew Doyle, Charles Karbel,
Arthur Trezise John Dillensnyder, PhiIip
and A. ]. Lauderman, Jere. Fry, Thomas
Redclif, F. G. Reese, Joseph Peters and Abe.
Grosketler.
Mr.. Lauderman has been outside forem an
at the kohinoor colliery for the past twenty
years and has filled the position so satisfac.
tOrily that he has made a host of warm
friends in all circles.

Last evening the doors of train of
large coal cars on the Lehigh Valley road
burst open at the lower end of Main street
and the coal was scattered along the track for
several hundred yards. IN some places it was
heaped above the rails A gang of navvies
were put to work and shoveled the dusky
diamonds from the track.

A correspondent asks the HERALD's con-
test editor if any additional offers will be
made by the paper to the contestants 1t is
not likely. We started out with two offers
and have since increased them to six, going
to considerable trouble and expense to ar
range six of the most delightful and instruc-
tive trips that could be afforded anyone.
Any contestant who may be holding back for
anything more than what is now before the
public will in all probability be disappointed.
There is another inquiry as to whether
friends of the teachers who may win the
Niagara Falls and Boston trips will be al
lowed to accompany them. Certainly, but
not at the expense of, or through any special
arrangement by the HERALD. In the case of
the Worlds Fair trip the HERALD will have
a special excursion arranged so that the two
winning teachers will have the company of a
limited number of friends. And perhaps,
there will be arrangements for the two next
highest teachers to go on the same train to
Niagara Falls
The latter arrangement may be feasible as
the Worlds Fair excursion is to be by way of
the Falls. The Boston trip, however, will be
an entirely Independent feature, as the route
will be entirely different
Friends wishing to share the benefits of
the Worlds Fair trip should lose no time in
sending their applications to the HERALD
office. Several have already been registered.

EDITOR HERALD In Justice to all con-
cerned l feel called upon to state that the
report of the Lakeside committee meeting of
Monday evening last, published in last even
ing's Republican, was so incorrect that it
impresses one as having been purposely
garbled. In the first place did not state to
the meeting that Mr.. Keim had assured me
that nothing could be erpected from the
privileges. What did say was that Mr..
Keim had said that the people holding yearly
privileges at Lakeside park were paying one
commission to the owners of the park and he
did not think they would be willing to pay
an additional commission to outside parties.
I also submitted to the committee a list of
the yearly privileges and the names and ad-
dresses of the holders, all given me by Mr..
Keim, so that the committee could write and
see if any commission could be secured. The
Republicans report also says motion that
eve do not go to Lakeside on August 10Th"
was carried without dissenting voice. This
part of the minutes was also badly garbled.
John w. Morgan made such motion, but the
vote was in favor and against, Chair
man Edward Reese cast the deciding vote,
declaring the motion carried.

Secretary of Committee.

The act was committed some time Monday
night and Mr.. Goldin fixes the time at about
8 o'clock, although it was not discovered
until Mr.. Goldin retired from the store to his
sleeping apartments some time after
The burglars stole a small trunk which
contained many valuable articles. The
manner in which the trunk was removed was
shown by plank with one end resting upon
window sill of the second story extension
to the Goldin building and the other end
resting on window sill of the vacant
building next door. The latter building
adjoins the Watson House, and suspicion was
at once directed against some of the people
boarding there.
1t was learned that one of the boarders
left the hotel at s o'clock Monday night,
saying he was going to Mahanoy City, and
was not seen after. Constable Phillips was
given a warrant and he found the suspected
man at Mahanoy City. Both returned to
town yesterday afternoon, but the clue
proved fruitless, as the suspected party
satisfied the officer that he had nothing to dc
with the robbery.
The trunk was found in gully at the
south end of Market alley. The lid was
smashed, the burglars having paid no atten.
ton to the lock, and only few letters and
papers of no value belonging to Mr.. Goldin
were found in it.
Mr.. Goldin says among the articles missing
are gold watch, valued at $47; gold neckless,
S25; gold and silver watch chain, IS; gold
bracelet, $15; a cape, $40; dress goods $40;
linens, $1O silk apron, So; jeweled pin, $5
The burglars were evidently of daring
class and well acquainted with the neigh
borhood. Mrs. Goldin was in room adj
joining that from which the trunk was taken,
but says she paid no attention when she
heard the window raised, supposing that the
maid of the house was there.

extreme, for although he had been ailing
for some time, Justice Lamar appeared
to be gradually gaining in health. He
went from Washington to Macon about
a month ago.
Bishop Philips Brooks died of heart
failure at his home in Boston, Monday
morning. His death was painless and
very unexpected. He was taken sick on
Tuesday With severe sore throat and IA

which would indicate anything more
serious than severe cold. During Sun

character and DIR. Brooks soon became
deliriOus. Early Monday morning he
was seized with slight spasm. followed
in few minutes by decreased action of

adjourned.
MEETING OF THE FAIR COMMITTEE.
At the meeting Of the sheep breeders
of the State in October there was APP
pointed a committee to fill vacancies in
the committee to select sheep for the
Chicago fair and such other vacancies in
officials then elected as might occur, the
object being to do away with the necessi-
ty for another general meeting of the
breeders. The committee consisted of
C. p. Crane of Bridport (chairman), A.
f. Perkins of Pomfret, j. II. Mead of
West Rutland, II. G. Burwel of Bird
port and |. L. Hamblin of Cornwall.
This committee had a meeting immedi-
ately upon the adjournment of the breed
ers' meeting. l.. S. Burwel of Bridport
was made member in place of IL. c.
Burwell, deceased.
1t was decided that the selecting COM
mittee, which met with the other COM
mittee, should start out February | to
look over the flocks of the State and
make selections. 1t is greatly to be de-
sired that breeders having sheep that
they wish shown at Chicago should at
once notify the chairman of the selecting
committee, Edgar Sanford of West Corn
wall. The committee will then know
where to go and what they may expect
to find.
Several breeders not heard from pre-
viously notified the committee at the
close of the breeders meeting; but there
are many others, who ought to have
suitable stock, from whom the commit
tee have not heard.
