HaZleton viii Have n CIub.

The movement to establish State
League club in Hazleton has been def
nitely settled at last. The enthusiasts
who had been championing the scheme
were in doubt whether the necessary
amount of capital could be procured.
An offer which was received on Monday
from private source not only warrants
the trial of a State League club, but
gives assurance of substantial support
throughout the season. As a result the
base ball cranks are happy. The work
of securing desirable manager has been
in progress for some time, but so far no
definite action has been taken.

The Ball Was Removed.

An operation was performed on Mon.
day afternoon upon Major C. NJ. Conyng.
ham, of Wilkes Barre, to remove ball
which he received on May 10, 1864,
while he was captain of Company A,
143d regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers.
The major was shot in the abdomen,
but the ball was never removed until
Monday. He has been greatly troubled
by it of late years. The ball, it was
found, had worked its way around the
right side until it rested near the spine
where it was found

UPPER LEHlGH NOTES.

On Tuesday morning about o'clock
the company's steam saw-mill, which is
situated in the Obey valley about a mile
from this place, was burned to the
ground. The first report of the fire that
reached here said that Josh Santee, who
had apartments in the building and
was foreman of the mill by day and
caretaker at night, had perished in the
flames. This report proved to be un-
true, although Mr.. Santee had a narrow
escape and were it not for the timely ar
rival of some workmen, who reside near
the mill, he would undoubtedly have
been burned to death. As it was he es-
capped with a few slight burns, though
he lost all his personal effects, including
$3.50 in money. The origin of the fire is
not known.
Already some of the knowing ones are

The new slope which was being sunk
at Railroad street surprised the men
working in it by tie bottom dropping
out of it into an old working this week.
The old workings belong to No. slope
and it is many years since they were
abandoned. 1t is expected, however,
that work will be continued.
There was quite an exciting time here
on Sunday afternoon, which was caused
by two of our residents who gave good
exhibition of the unmanly art, The
residents of Spring street were treated
to full and impartial view of the affair
and some of them say the weapon used
by one of the men upon his defenseess
neighbor should debar him from living
in the midst of a law abiding community.

A Former FreeIander for senator.

From the Ashland Record.
Hon. John j. Coyle, one of Mahanoy
City's representative citizens, and a gen
tleman well and favorably known in
political circles, has been prevailed upon
by his friends to allow his name to 90
before the next Republican convention
for senatorial honors in his district. Mr.
Coyle is at present member of the
house of representatives and was elect,
by handsome majority in strongly
Democratic district,
The senatorial district is also largely
Democratic, but Mr.. Coyle has elements
of stre;Igth which, it is believed, will
enable him to overcome his opponent
with a safe majority should he be nom
mated. Socially, Mr.. Coyle is one Of
the best of men and he has the faculty
of making friends whose attachment i'm
proves with larger acquaintance.

A fatal fight occurred late on Monday
night in Wilkes-Barre speak-easy, in
which two men were fatally shot and
stabbed, John Dolphin and his brother
in-law, James MARCEL, entered the
place to get drink. While they were
drinking number of Italians came up
to the bar and while drinking a quarrel
arose between the two parties. Finally
several of the Italians rushed at Dol
phin. He knocked two of them down
and was defending himself bravely
when one of the gang drew a revolver,
and thrustng it close to his face, pulled
the trigger.
Dolphin fell to the floor with a bullet
in his brain, and MARCEL rushed to his
assistance. AS he did so one of the
Italians turned upon him and thrust
stiletto into his abdomen while another
stabbed him in the back. The noise of
the fight aroused the police and they
burst into the place in time to catch the
Italians. Several of them were arrested.
Both the wounded men are alive but
the physicians say they cannot recover.

A suit for $4,000 damages was com
menced on Tuesday by John Dougherty
against the Central Railroad of New
Jersey. Dougherty claims that he pur-
chased ticket to Sandy Run one night
and that as the train did not take him

There has been expended on the roads of Fos-
ter township in the past five years the sum of
%, MS follows: In 1889, S6,l4S "a; 1890;
s. GE0S; 1891 S652i.20; 1882, 50, III 2l 1888 81
Q6l55 This amount of money properly applied
would be sufficient to macadamize nearly all of
the roads in general use throughout the town
ship. In place of this, as is well known. the
township has practically received no service.
The roads are today in Il deplorable condition
and have been so during the above period
and previous to the time mentioned. In many
places the roads are two narrow for two teams
TO pass i'm safety, the result of no work done, or
else If done at all, performed in an unskillful
manner. In other places If the weather is in
the least stormy the roads are but a succession
OF mud-hOl almost impossible.
In view of these facts the auditors, believing
that the present rate of pay to the supervisors
is excessive considering the service rendered,
have considered it their duty to reduce pay of
the horse to Sl.jO per day, making pay FOR one
man and horse $500 per day.
During the winter months when Il morse Is
used only to haul supervisor and men to ana
from work, and for which iull time mas been
charged, the auditors consider that an allow
ance of five hours day to be suihcient rclnu-
neration for services of said horse. We have
accordingly made deductions, us per above
