of it is computed on comptometers, invented

COLD HEITHER RULES.

Never lean with the back upon any
thing that is cold.
Never begin journey until the break
last has been eaten.
Never take warm drinks and then i'm
mediately &c out into the cold.
Keep the back, especially between
the shoulder blades, we'll covered;, also
the chest we'll protected.
In sleeping in a cold room establish a
habit OF breathing through the nose and
never with the5mouth open.
Never go toibed with cold or damp
feet. Never omit regular bathing, for
unless the skinis IN active condition the
cold will close the pores and favor con-
eestion and other diseases.
After exercise OF any kind lever ride
in an open carriage or near the window
of a car for a moment; it is dangerous to
health or eyendife.
When hoarssspeak as little as possible

The Evil widespread.

The influence which railroads exert ex-
tend from the lowest to the highest court in
the land. Federal courts have more than
once been successfully appealed to TO give
legal sanction to the perpetuation of gigan-
tic frauds, or Illustrate attempts made by
the individual states to place restrictions
upon roads operated within their respective
borders. Twenty years ago a federal judge
aided Mr.. Gould in his notorious Erie trans
actions, and in more recent years a federal
circuit judge in the west threw the property
OF the Wabash Railroad company, upon the
application Of it's own directors, into the
hands of receivers selected by its former
managers, without the knowledge or notice
of its creditors, and issued orders for the
management of the property which greatly
Disseminated in favor of certain bond
holders, and were so manifestly unjust that
Judge Gresham, before whom the case was
subsequently brought, did not hesitate to
say to them that ''the boldness of this
scheme to aid the purchasing committee, by
denying equal rights to all bondholders Sc
cured by the same mortgages, is equaled
only by its injustice" AT the same time
one of the counsel for the dissenting bond
holders characterized these strange orders
as 1.-THE highwayman's clutch on our throat,

Despite the storm that ragged all night
Fosters Democrats assembled in full
force, after the polls closed, at Peter
Timony's hotel in the Points. The
headquarters of the township committee
were opened there, and the usual prepar-
ations made to receive the returns and
celebrate the victory. The victory, how
ever, was not so complete as was hoped
for. Two of the candidates, O'Donnell
for supervisor and Kennedy for school
director, were the victims OF what their
friends termed foul play.
At IL o'clock the returns from all the
polls, excepting Eckley, were received
and showed majorities for all but O'Don-
nell and Kennedy. The messengers en-
countered great difficulty in reaching
the East and other outlying districts.
The snow had drifted from two to three
feet deep along the roads, and the short
time in which the result was known was
remarkable. Eckley arrived at 2 o. clock,
but the figures did not alter the result.
In the majority of the districts Ken
nedy dropped few votes behind his
ticket, and the count shows him to be
defeated by IA. Had he ran any ahead
of his ticket at his home, Drifton dis
trict, the result would have been diff
ferent.
O'Donnell defeat cannot be put down
as caused in the same manner as Ken
nedys. AT his home, Eckley, he took a
good lead on the ticket, but this was
done without doing any damage to the
other candidates, who were carried
along straighler than in any district of
the township. In South Heberton, Will
sons home, O'Donnell dropped far be-
hind, and lost also at South Woodside
poll.

HE MAY BE INSANE.
The Family of Banker RockafeIIow May
Have Him Placed in an Asylum.

1t is said that the family of F. V.
Rockafellow, of Wilkes Barre, whose
private bank failed so disastrously, will,
If any more suits are instituted, make an
effort to have commission in lunacy
appointed to adjudge Rockafellow insane
and have him sent to the Danville
asylum.
1t is believed his mind is affected, as
he lies in bed all day muttering and
, figuring on the robberies and conspiracy
from which he claims to have suffered
DR.. Crawford, his physician, stands
ready to swear he is insane and to sub.
NIT his opinion and the case to the scru
tiny of any other physicians or any tri-
bunal competent to judge.
George w. Lehman and Emile s.
Miller have made affidavit alleging that
Rockafellow sold mortgage belonging
to the Lehman estate to the Miners
Savings Bank for $4,000 in cash, which
money now is unaccounted for The
affidavit goes on to state that Rocka-
fellow, who is the executor, has still in
his possession mortgages to the amount
of forty or fifty thousand dollars, which
are in danger of being sold or assigned
at any time, and that he has been using
the funds of the estate for his own use
The plaintiffs ask that the orphans
court issue citation directing the execu-
tor to show cause why he shall not be
removed from the executorship, that an
attachment be issued to secure all trust
property in his hands and that an in
junction be granted restraining William
Stoddard, assignee, and the Miners Saw
ings Bank from receiving or collecting
any more of the trust funds.
Judge Rhone, of the Orphans Court,
granted the attachment, citation and
injunction. Mr.. Rockafellow's attor-
neys claim that there is nothing in the
charge that the funds or securities of
this estate have been wrongfully admin
istered. They contend that the proceeds
of the mortgage alleged to have been
sold to the Miners Savings Bank have
been properly accounted for.

A Hazleton Man in Search of His Wife

A stylish, well dressed, genteel look
ing fellow in large storm overcoat trim
med with fur and wearing a high silk
hat, appeared at police headquarters on
Tuesday night in search of his pretty
young wife. He claimed he understood
she was in this city. The stranger was
M. j. Goodlin, of Hazleton. Goodlin
looked tired and worn out and gave all
the appearance of a man who was in a
heap of trouble.
He said that his wife fled from his
home on Friday night during his alb.
sence and shipped her trunk to Buffalo,
but this he claims was game of bluff,
as the trunk had not passed up the
Valley road. The young bride was in
the company of young man whom nc
person in Hazleton knew. Goodlin
gave instructions to the sergeant to ar
rest them both on sight.-Neaosdealer
The woman in the case is the "Ma-
dame Mae, Clairvoyant, who was at one
of the hotels here about seven weeks
ago telling fortunes and gathering in the
half-dollars of supersttious fools.

Hazleton and North Side Company from

in Foster township. The hearing will
be set for an early date, in order that
the question may be settled as soon as
possible.
The Union people have no doubt but
that the evidence they are able to sub

more, Lansford 2, Summit Hill y. In

Monroe left Hazleton and West Halle
ton with 4S5 majority, over 100 less than
the Democrats had expected he would
get.
Dispatches sent by the TRIBUNE this
morning to Mauch Chunk and Weather

that time the returns indicated Nc

He is still ahead of Monroe, and the

SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.

FREELAND, February %, 1898.
EDITOR TRIBUNE.-Inasmuch as you
have offered space in your valuable
paper to any citizen having objections
to the ordinance presented by the council
of Freeland borough to the Hazleton and
North Side Electric Railroad Company
and the Union Passenger Company,
think that every person having any
interest in the borough of Freeland
should have objections to section l3,
which reads thus: Said railway company
shal within one year from the time of
beginning work, within the borough of
treeland, construct its road or branches
thereof, so as to connect with the villages
of Upper Lehigh, Highland, Eckley and
Drlfton, in Foster township.
Don't the council want any of the
villages of Halle township to be connect
ed with Freeland to do any business?
1t seems not. Why not compel the
company that gets the right of way
through Freeland borough to connect
Drifton No. l, Jeddo, Jeddo borough.
Oakdale, Ebervale and Harliegh with
Freeland borough?
Mr.. Editor, think the council should
recall the ordinance and revise it so as
to connect the villages above mentioned
with Freeland borough, as Freeland is
nearer to those towns than Hazleton.
l think if we are to have an electric road
we should have it to connect with the
villages that would be of the most benefit
to our town. The leaving of those large
villages out of the ordinance shows
plainly that the council had more
respect for the charter privilege of one
of the companies than it had for the
business interest of Freeland borough.

WHAT THE VOTES SHOW.
GALLAGHER ELECTED BURGESS BY A
MAJORITY OF ONE.

Two Democrats We're Defeated in Free
land and Two in Foster-The Result in
Hazle Township-Joseph p. Mcdonald
Is Elected Poor Director.
The vote of Freeland borough was the
lightest polled for the past few years,
and the result was more favorable to the
Democratic candidates than at any cleo
tion for some time. With the exception
of one councilman and the tax collector
the complete ticket was elected. Some
of the candidates got there by scant
majorities, E. P. Gallagher, for instance,
having but one more vote for burgess
than his opponent.
Though the vote was light the citizens
still maintained their reputation as the
greatest 'cutters" in the state. Out of
2Sl ballots cast, it is said there were 81
straight Democratic and 20 straight Re-
publican. The remaining ones were
marked up in their usual zig-zag style,
but the Republicans suffered the most by
that.
Much sympathy was expressed for the
defeated candidates, Messrs. Berner
and McGeehan, when the result was
announced, as it was expected that the
whole ticket could be carried through
this year. Had the vote been larger
their chances of election would have
been greatly increased.
In the first column of figures is given
the vote received by each candidates, and
In the next is the victors majority.
