.FOLTZ Held THE CHAIN
His Extraordinary Escape at the
Shenandoah City COlliery.
CAUGHT IN A SCRAPER LINE
with Wonderful Presence of Mind He
Held Up the Chain Until the
Crisis Passed-Sustained
Bruises.

Christian Foltz of West Lloyd street,
yesterday had an extraordinary escape
from dangerous injury at the Shenandoah
City colliery. His fellow employees say the
escape was miraculous and that Foltz's
wonderful presence of mind alone saved
him
Foltz was one of gang of carpenters
and repair men who were at work on a
scraper line. A part of his clothing was
caught by the scrapers and drawn in so
rapidly that he was unable to release him
self. Foltz was drawn along the trough
and several times was pulled down into it,
but on each occasion he succeeded
in getting out, although his clothing
was still held fast, and the man was
dragged along a big "horn" wheel, To
pass batween the chain and the prongs of
this wheel meant a crushing of bones and,
perhaps death. Foltz realized this as he
saw his legs were about to be carried to the
wheel. With an almost superhuman
effort he grasped the scraper chain with
both hands and held it high enough to
allow the passage of his legs over the
'horn" wheels and free of the chain
Meanwhile the worlzmen who saw the
mans perilous condition signalled the
engineer and be stopped the machinery
just as Foltz dropped the chain through
exhaustion.
Foltzs legs were badly scratched and
bruised and it was necessary to take him
home in a wagon. He is confined to his
bed and will be obliged to remain there
several days 1t is said that Foltz's case
is the first in which victim caught by
scraper line las escaped a crushing or loss
of limbs or death.

MOVATS EXPERIENCE! !!
Waylaid on the Road Near Turkey
Run.
BEATEN, BOUND AND ROBBED
Three Men Accosted Him, Discharged
Revolver and Used a Club.
Took His Watch, Money
an noes.

Felix Movat, of town, tells of a thrilling
experience he encountered while travelling
over the mountain from Gilberton. When
he was on the outskirts of Turkey Run
three men aCcosted him. They spoke the
Polish language and asked for a match,
which he gave. One then asked him where
he was going and as he was about replying
The bullet pierced Movat's hat. The third
man presented club and struck the un-
fortunate man on the head. Movat fell to
the ground partly stunned and the three
men proceeded to rifle his clothing. They
took his watch and chain, a small sum of
money, and removed his shoes. A worn
out pair of shoes was left by the robbers in
exchange.
Before leaving him the highwaymen tied
Movat's hands behind his back and en-
joined him not to go to Shenandoah after
daybreak. Movat respected the orders,
but while he tossed upon the ground the
rope which bound his hands became loose
and he eventually freed himself and re-
turned to Gilberton, going to the house of
a friend, where he borrowed sufficient
money to pay his fare over the trolley lines
to town. Movat says he could identify one
of the men who attacked him, but cannot
give a satisfactory description of him.
Such assaults occur quite frequently on
the roads leading from town to Gilberton
and Wiggans, especially on pay days and
Immediately after. The Pennsylvania
railroad water tank is also a rendezvous for
lawless characters.

The fourth is Coming.

The Fourth Of July is approaching. 1t
is suggested that the extensive displays
of fireworks are costly in more ways than
in an ebultion of patriotism, and it is
recommended that return to the olden
style celebrations, with music, parades,
banners, and speeches in some of the old
time woods or groves would be the proper
thing. But young America will in all
probability sizzle and fizzle as usual, have
numerous accidents, and the glorious
Fourth of 1895 will then be one of the
pleasant Cor unpleasant as the case may
be) memories of the past, On the ap-
preaching Independence Day, the Columbia
Hose and Steam Fire Engine Company
will see that Shenandoah will properly
celebrate the occasion in keeping with its
Importance and significance, and it be.
hooves every individual citizen to turn in
and help it along. A grand joint parade
will take place on the Fourth and a fam
tastic parade, under the auspices of the
company will take place on the Fifth. On
both days the company will hold a picnic
at Columbia park.

A Good IOlse.

Some people are born to good luck or
else they have solved the problem of get
ting rich quick and early in life. The
Shenandoah HERALD borrowed an article
without credit from the journal favoring
Judge Rice as one of the Judges of the
new Superior Court, and the Wilkesbarre
Times reproduces it, and gives the HERALD
credit for it. The best part of the joke is
that the HERALD received cheque to
publish something favorable to Judge
Rice and it appropriated the Journals
article, type and all, which was a gratuity,
because we meant what we said. If the
HERALD Office burns out once more its
proprietor will retire Independently
wealthy,-Miners' journal, But the very
best part of the joke lies in the demon
stration that the readers of the HERALD
are widespread. The Wilkesbarre Times
quoted the article within twenty-four
hours after it appeared ir the HERALD. If
you want the people to see anything, put
it in the HERALD,

Here is an interesting bit of news that
comes from the state capital at seems
that the two electric light bills over which
there is so much of a row, were prepared
in the Democratic camps. The bills pro
vide that before a municipality can go into
the electric light business it must first
purchase existing private plants, and that
a company already established shall have
exclusive right to the streets through
which its lines run. Senator Hackenburg
of Northumberland, who introduced the
two bills, did so by request of Senator
Cochrane, who is a new Senator, and said
he was backward about speaking on the
floor. But the most interesting fact is
that the bills were sent to Mr.. Cochrane
by eX-Attorney General Hensel, who
drafted them"

An official of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company, upon being asked yesterday as
to business conditions and prospects, said
there is a general improvement in business
in all departments and that he thought
it was not spasmodic, but had come to stay.
While the increase has not been very large
it has been of snch nature as to give the
officials considerable encouragement. The
freight business shows a material increase,
not only east-bound, but west-bound as
well, and the passenger business is also
showing considerable improvement, indicat-
ing that many of the large mercantile
houses are sending men out on the road.
