Among the most important decisions
handed down by the state supreme court
on Tuesday was one which affirmed the
judgement of common pleas court No. 8,
of Philadelphia, to the effect that the
Cleveland, or American Order, was the
legally constituted faction of the Ancient
Order of Hibernians in this country.
This decision of the case of John V. Cor
man and others, appellants, against
William O'Connor and others, effects
100000 members of the order in this
country.
The dispute involving directly only a
matter of a few hundred of dollars which
originally belonged to Division No. 4, A.
O.. H., of Philadelphia, indirectly in
volved the control of the order in
America.
In May, 1884, certain members of the
order seceeded from all connection with
the Board of Erin, at convention held
in Cleveland, o., and were afterwards
known as the Cleveland Party. The re-
naming faction was known as the New
York, or Board of Erin Party. The lat
ter now loses all legal standing by this
decision, affirming the judgment of the
court below w.-PhilG. Record.

Odd Fellows Parade.

On Wednesday next Mauch Chunk
expects to have a parade, which in point
of enthusiasm and numbers, bids fair to
surpass any former parade or demonstra-
ton. The occasion is the annual parade
of the Odd Fellows Association of
Schuylkill, Carbon and adjoining coun-
ties, and is in honor of the seventy
fourth anniversary of the founding of
Odd Fellowship in this country.
Already more than twenty-five lodges,
representing 1000 Odd Fellows, accom-
panied by fifteen bands of music have
signified their intention of participating
and acceptances of the numerous invita-
tions sent out are coming in daily.
William H. Arndt, of East Mauch
Chunk Lodge, has been assigned the
office of chief marshal; DIR. F. G.. Ibach,
Mauch Chunk, marshal of first division;
Thomas Smithan, Mauch Chunk, mar
shall of second division, and Herman

Should Be Given Medals,

While waiting for train at the sta
ton here on Tuesday afternoon a nun
Der OF Austrians amused themselves by
playing jokes on one another and having
very good time among themselves.
One of them finally snatched a cigar
from another, and in the friendly scufIle
that followed both pulled revolvers from
their pockets. A number of spectators
were witnessing the fun, and as no one
seemed likely to get hurt they-did not
interfere. About this time a Wilkes
Barre train came along, containing Chief
Polgrain and Officer Slattery, of Halle
ton, who had been doing business at the
county seat.
The latter saw the group of Austrians
and after making some inquiries and
seeing them get on the train it is said he
remarked he would attend to their case
before they reached Hazleton. The
Austrians, when they got on the train,
seemed to have no desire TO make
trouble, but before they had gone far
the Hazleton "cop" had worked up their
fighting blood.
When the city was reached five of the
party were arrested. taken before the
mayor and fined So so each. Some yery
ofticious persons wear uniforms in this
region, and are growing fat at the ex-
pense of people who are their superiors
IN every respect.

A Cold.

1t was only common cold. John had
had many worse cold and got over it.
This would wear off as the others had
done; so it was neglected and neglected
until a steady pain came in the chest,
and slight, but not very distressing
cough became constant. But John didn't
mind the pain-he ignored it, and went
on with his work as though pain meant
nothing. After time he began to grow
thin and weak, and an attack of dysen-
terry compelled him to call in a physi-
clan.
The physician discovered his condi-
ton, and by this time infltration was
well advanced in the right lung. Now
the fight for life became serious, and it
all came from common cold that taken
at first could have been easily cured.
The physician, being an experienced
practitioner, recommended Downs Elk
ir. and John used it faithfully and pulled
through; but how much better it would
have been had John bought bottle of
the Elixir at once, and taken a dose on
going to bed and walked up next morn
ing as clear as whistle.
In view of the fact that the season of
colds and coughs is now at hand, we call
the attention of our readers to the adver-
tisement of Downs Elixir, which will be
found i'll another column. X

SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
Representative Jeffrey's Views Are Not
as Consistent as They Used to Be.

as Consistent as They Used to BE.
In the house on Monday night Repre-.
sentative Jeffrey moved to recommit tc
the committee on counties and town
ships the negatived new county bill
In making the motion, Mr.. Jeffrey
charged that Chairman James, of that
committee, had called meeting i'm
mediately after receiving the bill, and
without giving its friends chance to be
heard, the committee killed it. Mr..
James Indignantly resented this charge.
The bill, however, was recommitted.
The action of the representative of
this district, while it does not occasion
any surprise here, is in direct violation
of the promise he made to the delegation
that went from lower Luzerne to Harris
burg in February to protest against the
bill.
When asked to give his views on the
bill he stated it was rendered to him
with request to introduce it, which he
did, and said he would stand by it to the
end, providing the house committee on
counties and townships would report it
favorably. If this committee opposed it
he said he would have nothing further
to do with it, but his motion on Monday
night proves that his views are subject
10 cnange.
Enough inside information has been
obtained from Harrisburg to cause the
opponents of the measure to feel that
they are yet on top and will likely stay
there. The recommitting of bill does
not carry with it any particular sgnifi-
canoe, and is usually done by the mem
bers to save themselves the trouble of
defeating it outright. The bill is liable
to not see daylight again at this session,
but even if it does there will be no dan
ger of it going through in the three weeks
that remain before the legislature will
adjourn.

A party of four would -be-tough young
men were arrested on Monday, charged
with house breaking and assault and
battery upon Mr.. and Mrs. Albert Novak,
who run a saloon at South Heberton.
They were Adam Hyer and Daniel
Feeler, of Upper Lehigh; James Levan,
of Freeland, and John Krommes, of
Oakdale. They called at Novak's place
on Sunday afternoon, and upon being
refused drink started in to smash the
furniture and whip the proprietor, his
wife and two boarders.
They were given hearing before
Squire Buckley, who placed them under
$500 bail each. Levan procured security
and the three other young toughs were
taken to the county Jail on Tuesday.

If there is one job all right in theory
and wrong in practice it is mine inspec-
tor. The state practically pays 5000 a
year to educate man to become mine
superintendent or a boss after he has
filled his term. There should be mine
inspector for every two or three col
lieries. There is really no use for the
high-priced fellows who are supposed to
visit twenty-five or thirty collieries. A
man should be employed by the state,
paid moderate salary and be expected
to carefully examine one or two collieries
and given chance to do this work
thoroughly and well. 1t would be a sys-
tenn of inspection at once thorough and
effective.
But the mine inspector of today no
sooner gets his appointment than he
considers himself in the coal operator
class, talks about the rights of capital
and paves the way for the inevitable
superintendency and it will be noticed
that the way is nearly if not always
paved.
Some very able men have been mine
inspectors and have tried to do their
duty faithfully, but they found that it
was impossible to give the attention to
every colliery that the miners expected
and had right to expect. A good
deal OF cheap sentiment has interfered
with treating this inspector business as
II should be treated. That the mines
are better with the meagre inspection
made may be admitted, but the state
pays the bill and has therefore the right
10 demand better service.

THE MINE FIRES.
Several Are Now Raging in Different
Parts of the Coal Regions.

ol Sobl Regions.
Fire broke out Monday morning in the
pump house at the bottom of the first
lift of Crystal Ridge colliery, operated
by A. Pardee & Co. Two pumpmen en-
deavored to extinguish the flames but
were unable to do so and fed. The
flames spread quickly and in a short
time had climbed the slope and shot into
the air.
A fire engine and hose cart were sent
from Hazleton to save the boiler house
and breaker.
The company does not wish to flood
the mine, as the water will pass through
it and flow into the Halle Mines and
Laurel Hill collieries, which are deeper
than the Crystal Ridge. The Cranberry,
with which it is also connected, has
been shut down to give the men an oppor-
tunity to fight the fire.
All efforts on the part of the Reading
Company to eXtingush the fire IN the
Wadesville shaft, near Pottsvlle, which
has been raging for many years past,
have thus far proved fruitless. 1t has
already cost the company large sums of
money to fight the fire and it is expected
that the cost will reach $4,000 before it
is eXtinguished.
No headway is being made against the
Honey Brook mine fire, and an immense
amount of coal has been consumed by
the flames since they gained control.
The Lehigh and Wilkes Barre Company,
which runs the colliery. seems unable to
adopt any systematic manner of fighting
the fire, and it will cost thousands of
dollars to put it in shape again, after the
flames are extinguished.

deaths in Laurel Hill colliery on April 8,
from injuries received by the breaking
in of water in the breast No. 81, from a
proving hole driven from No. 3, Halle
