true that II larger water-mains are put

need greater pumping facilities in the
near future This. the writer understands.
II the gist Of your article. supported by
the opinion Of Mr.. Boiling. With due
Differences to both opinions, ! would sug-
gest that you ascertain how many meters
are now at the City Hall waiting TO be
tested and put in for private parties. Also.
how fast our citizens are ordering meters
for their own profit. And then please
explain why this private introduction Of
meters at the rate they are now putting
them In (or. rather. trying to have the
city find time to put them in) will not
fully compensate for the extra water used
by those who now fail to receive Il by
reason Of high grounds and small mains.
Very truly.
ONE OF THE SUFFERERS.
Superintendent Boiling stated to n d.
patch man yesterday that he. about six
weeks ago, put double force to work
upon the distribution Of the meters on
hand, and that only few now remained
at the City Hall. He said that It was true
that but little real relief had appeared
as a result Of the meters already intro
duced, because the people using them
were in nearly all cases residents in the
high sections (where the scarcity OF water
occurs), and had adopted them In order
that they might not have to pay for
what they were not getting. The Super
intendent explained. as he had done be-
fore, that in order for much good to come
from tho introduction Of the meter, 1t
would have to be put in the lower parts
of the city. where the waste OF water
was greatest.

Mrs. William Gerseicher, q German
woman of Wilkes Barre, who has been
deserted by her husband, tells very
sad story of wanton cruelty. Several
years ago in Europe Mrs. Gerseicher
married August Engle. Soon after this
marriage the young couple came to this
country, locating in New York city,
where the husband opend a drug store,
and for eight years conducted very
profitable business. Then he died and
his body was cremated, and the ashes
placed in costly urn, which the widow
treasured.
Some time after she married William
Gerseicher and the couple went to
Wilkes-Barre to live. Then their trou-
bles commenced. He beat her, stole her
jewels and sold them in order to provide
himself with money. When the Jewels
were gone he told her he was going to
sell the urn containing the dust of her
first husbands remains. She implored
him not to touch it, but he laughed and
brutally seized it and actually threw
the dust over the woman. Mrs. Ger
seicher tainted, and when she recovered
he had disappeared. She complained
to the police, who found he had sold
the urn and left the city.

Catholic church at Eckley, will hold q
fair in the church basement. 1t will
open some time in the latter part of
next month and continue through the
Christmas holidays. The congregation
of the church is rather small, and this
method is taken to procure the money
necessary to pay off some Indebtedness
that yet remains on the building. The
pastor requests his friends in the neigh

sist the congregation in making the fair
a financial success.

The numerous robberies committed
lately on the turnpike between Highland
and Freeland has given that road the
reputation of being a dangerous one to
travel. One of the highwaymen has
been captured and the proof against him
seems to be sufficient to keep him away
from here for awhile. About 730 o'clock
last night two young men of Sandy Run,
Neil Gallagher, Jr., and Elmer Anthony,
were on their way to this place. At the
railroad trestlng they were held up by
two men who demanded their money.
Both darted past the robbers, and after
lively race succeeded in escaping.
They saw the faces of the men, how
ever.
Next came Mike Schawinsky, of Adams
street, quietly pursuing his way home
from visit to Highland friends. When
he reached the same spot, the trestling,
two forms appeared before him and
without word of warning one of them
began striking at him with a small knife.
He was knocked down and quart of
whisky and 80 cents, all he possessed
were taken from him. He received
three gashes with the knife, but man.
aged to get to town and make his report !.
The police force Immediately started
in pursuit of the highwaymen and in
about twenty minutes Officer Jones
caught Joe Antonevich, Pole from
South Heberton. He was identified by
Messrs, Gallagher and Anthony as one
of the men who tried to rob them, and
was, placed in the lookup for safe keep
ing over night. This morning Schawn-
sky was able to be around again and he
is positive that Joe was one of the two
who attacked him.
The highwayman was taken before
Squire Kline at a. m. today and re-
committed for further hearing at 7
o'clock tonight.

collected and went to the scene of the
accident, where they found the wife
leading him home. He was more fright

May Never BE CAPTURED

The authorities having failed to furn-
ish any information as to the identity of
the murderers of the Arabian peddler,
John Mike, the coroners jury last week
rendered verdict to the effect that the
victim came to his death on September
20 near the bridge crossing over from
Plymouth by pistol shot fred at him
by some person or persons unknown,
and the crime was committed for the
purpose of robbery.
No clue to the perpetrators of this foul
crime has been obtained, and it is more
than probable that the guilty parties
will never be captured.

From the Wilkes Barre Record
1t is with deep sorrow that we are
called upon to chronicle the death of Dr.
w. j. Edwards, of Warrior Run. The
physician was only "a years of age, a
graduate of Jefferson medical college, OF
Philadelphia. After leaving school he
settled down at Uniondale, Pa, but,
owing to ill health, he was forced to
relinquish his practice there and moved
to his home at Warrior Run.
This change produced temporary re-
lief and it was not long before he was
again in the midst of a good practice.
About month ago, however, he was
again attacked with his first affliction,
and in order to seek permanent relief,
he went to the Jefferson college, of Phila-
delphia, and there on Thursday under
went surgical operation from the effects
of which died on Friday. His body was
brought home on Saturday. He is sur.
vived by his father, f. J. Edwards, of
Warrior RIM, and his sister, Mary Liz.
zie, of the same place, also brother,
Edward, with Coke Bros. & Co. of
Drifton.

The Best Place to Buy.

The people of Freeland are not slow
to learn the best place to buy, especially
in the clothing line, and the handsome
suits which Refowieh is turning out at
ready made clothing prices are giving
him lots of free advertising Nothing
counts so much in business as to secure
a name for doing good work. Refowich
has the name of being able to send every
customer away perfectly satisfied with
his bargain. Try him.
All his goods are new, bright and of
the latest style and suits will be made to
order at readymade prices. He has no
rent to pay and can easily do it. The
best fits are guaranteed and clothing
made by him will be kept in repair free
for one year. Nothing like this has ever
been seen in Freeland before. Give him
call. Square treatment assured.

A Sandy Run Christening,

The next case to require the service
of the borough police was a call from
Sandy Run. A christening celebration
there during the day brought together
many Hungarians, and between some of
them the best of feeling did not exist.
As the time wore on threats and chal-
lenges were exchanged, and shortly af-
ter dark the inevitable fight took place.
Andrew Panko, with companion, left
the house of festivities, for a short walk
He had not proceeded far until he was
set upon by Andrew Hudak and Tony
Cochen, who in few minutes had his
forehead gashed and ripped open and
his clothing covered with blood.
Andrew came to town and after hay-
ing his wounds dressed swore out war
rant. Officers Dan Gallagher and Jones
went after Hudak and Cochen and at II
O'Clock had them before Squire Buckley.
Both men were sent to the borough bas-
tile in default of 5000 bail each. They
will likely 60 to Wilkes-Barre today.

Howard Lyons, four-year-old child
of Edwardsville, fell into a rain barrel
on Friday evening and was drowned
He had been sitting on the doorstep
with his mother, waiting for his father
to return from work. The mother went
into the house for something and told
the little fellow to "go down to the gate
to wait for papa"
The child instead went around to the
side of the house and in some manner
fell into barrel which was full of water.
1t was half an hour before the little fell
low was found, and then he was dead.

From today's Plain Speaker.
An unknown Hungarian was picked
up at Drifton about o'clock last night
and taken to Hazleton on North Side
trolley car. He had fallen from the
srestle whice supports the track of road
used for hauling coal from one of Coke
Bros. u Co.'s slopes to the iron breaker.
The height of the trestling is about fif-
teen feet and the unfortunate man fell
to the team road beneath and sustained
quite few bad cuts about the head and
face, He was taken into the Traction
Company's office, from which place he
was late removed to the hospital
