menced suit in ejectment against the
Wilkes-Barre and Eastern Railroad
| company. He has retained Attorneys
| Z. A. Lynch and John T. Lenahan to
conduct his case. The suit is the out
come of trouble arising in consequence
| of the defendants taking possession OF
certain lot of land belonging to the
plaintiff and appropriating it for its
own use.
Considerable excitement occurred
Saturday afternoon on North Main
street. 1t was occasioned by the APP
pearance of an outraged husband, de-
tective and a constable at the house
adjoining the Adams brick building at
the foot of Parsonage street and which
has been occupied for the past three
months by a man and woman who were
known to the neighbors by the name
of Wilson. The woman is the wife of a
well-to-do German residing in Wilkes
Barre, and is the mother, according to
the husbands story, of five small
children. In January last she eloped
with Wilson and the couples where
abouts had ever since remained a mys-
terry. The discarded husband employed
detectives, who tracked the couple to
New York and Philadelphia. The de-
tectives located the couple in the latter
city, but when about ready to arrest
them they found their prey had flown.
1t appears the couple came to this place
and after looking about for quarters
settled in the house alluded to. Wilson
since coming here has worked in the
mines at Duryea. His financial condi-
tion, 1t would appear, is not what it
might be, for not only was the erring
woman required to work for him, but
for two boarders also. The woman, it
appears, had a mania for watching
street cars. Every time the cars passed
the door she could be seen by the
passengers eyeing the occupants. II
was while doing this a Wilkes-Barrean
aboard the car recognized her and in
formed her husband, who had about
given up all hope of finding her. The
couple were taken to Wilkes-Barre for
hearing.

WilliamA. colliery of Connell G. Co.
at Duryea was the scene of a. sllpht gas
explosion yesterday morning. The ex-
plosion occurred in a chamber worked
by several Poles Mine Foreman James
Jones ordered the men not to enter the
chamber, but they disregarded his Or
ders. On going into the chamber the
flame of their naked lamp ignited the
gas and the explosion followed. The
men escaped with slight injuries.
Mrs. Alexander Law, of South Main
street, who has been a patient sufferer
for some time past with a troublesome
ailment, will undergo an operation at
the Wilkes-Barre hospital during the
present week in the hope of regaining
her health.

rowful but noble duty We have been
called upon to mourn the loss of one of

since he, who Is the occasion of our sor-
rows, occupied the highest position In
the gift of the tribe and the performing
Of his duties was the admiration of all.
But the life which seemed so promising
has gone out and we again see the
transitoryness of all things here below.

my errors, cultivate the virtues 1 have
chosen, and would you rescue any
thing from final dissolution, lay it I'D in

Whereas, The Great Spirit in the wise
dispensation of his providence, has by

which time cannot fill or man replace,
and
Whereas, 1t is our duty to the mem
ory of our brother that we, the suryiv-
ing members of this brotherhood. who
have so often listened to his words of
wisdom and council, should express in
becoming manner our appreciation of
the brother and the irreparable loss this
order has sustained.
Resolved, That we extend our warm
est sympathy and coincidence to his he
reaved family.
Resolved, That as tribute of respect
TO the memory of our deceased brother
