Black Satin, Too.
One woman who was attended by
both her daughter and her husband,
had on a pair of black satin boomers
made very full, and which tapped
about in ludicrous fashion during the
square dances. The daughter, a pretty
slim girl with light hair and brown
eyes evidently had her own ideas about
what constituted the proper costume.
1t was made of russell brown corduroy,
the boomers of medium dimensions
and coat with flaring skirts, and leg

The bloomers were made of BLACK

They were more graceful than are the

of the costume were the leSglngs.
These were of white kid and fitted the

the fasteners, and it must have taken
deal of time to get the buttons
through the buttonholes, even with the
aid of a most improved hook.
White kid shoes, a white silk waist

completed the outfit. The young lady

There was another costume which

was nearer 40 than 80, and who weighed
nearly 200 pounds. She had on a blue
cloth suit the jacket or coat reaching
to the hips while the lower garments
were fashioned on the knickerbocker

The snug fitting leggings were blue in

THE BOARD OF HEALTH.

A public meeting Cf the Board of

President Smith said that ]. L.
Crawley had made examination OF the
water at the new pumping plant at
the corner of BeTetania and Alapai
streets, and had come to the conclu-
sion that "on treating the clear water
with sugar and exposing to light there
was perceptible fungOid growth and
milky appearance with twenty hours.
"There is nothing notable in the
mineral constitution, with the excep-
ton of the rather high content OF iron,
alumina and chlorine.
"The amount of free and albuminoid
ammonia, considering the high con-
tent of chlorine, would make this a
suspicious water if it were from sur
face well, but being from deep arte-
sian source it leads to the conclusion
that the organic matter may be from
a vegetable source and therefore not
injurious. In view OF the present
epidemic threatening the city L can
not too strongly impress the necessity
of boiling this water and filtering,
when possible, before use. DIR. Lyons
has already pointed out the fact ia
previous report on some OF the city
waters, that water containing organic
matter contains the food upon which
the germs of pathogenic bacteria feed,
and would furnish proper culture
medium for these germs During

AFTER BUTCHER SCHWABE.
Armour Orders Beef Prices Cut to Pre-
vent Local Killing of Cattle.

From the Wilkesbarre Record.
The New York World is having plenty
of fun with Philip d. Armour. The
World is after the beef trust, because,
as that paper alleges, the trust has en-
tered into combination to keep up the
price of beef and freeze out Independent
butchers who have the temerity to un-
dersell the Chicago people. Mr.. Ar
mour emphatically denies that any such
combination exists, and the World is
keeping that gentleman explaining sew
eral suspicious circumstances which
tend to materially weaken Mr.. Ar
mour's denals. The latest fact un-
earthed by the World to prove its CON
tention is in the shape of telegram
purporting to come from Armour & Co.
and addressed to H. R. Lacey, of Free
land. The telegram is as follows:
II. R. Lacey, Freeland, Pa.
Cannot allow Schwabe to continue
killing live cattle. If he will not stop
make other arrangements and make
prices so as to get his trade.
Armour & Co.
According to the above telegram Ar
mour & Co. endeavorcd to prevent
Butcher Schwabe from slaughtering his
own cattle and selling beef at his own
prices. If the telegram is genuine, and
so far it is not questioned, it looks very
much as If there is beef trust in Chi
cago and that this same trust is doing
its best to squeeze out competition and
keep up prices.
1t is entirely proper, therefore, for the
people to meet this trust in the only way
that is practicable. Boycotts, as gem
eral rule, are odious. But boycott of
Chicago trust beef is about the only way
the people have to protect themselves
against unreasonable prices. During
the warm season we can do without
beef and still be wellfed and contented
A meat diet in summer is not approved
by physicians.
But those who cannot get along with
out it have large variety to chose from
even without beef. Mutton, turkey and
chicken are lighter and more desirable
for summer eating. If the people of
the country would take it into their
heads to let beef alone for month or
two, the price would come tumblng
down and there would be no more bull
doing of honest butchers who want to
sell beef at reasonable rates.

The Work Stopped,

Before the committee had time to act,
work at the tunnel was discontinued.
1t is not known for how long, but several
people believe that no further attempt
will be made for awhile to drain the
colliery into the stream. The committee
yesterday inspected the Nescopeck and
Obey creeks, and will make a request
that the small stream running from No
4 slope into the Nescopeck, and empty
ing below the Honeyhole be changed in
in another direction. The amount run
ning'in is small, and some distance away
from the points which are of special
interest to Freeland, still the committee
believes it unnecessary to have mine
water flowing into the creek in the
neighborhood.

Past Commander Edmunds, was then

After the reception the delegates as

banquet was rendered them by Garfield
Commandery. Nearly 200 people took
part and most pleasant time was had
until late hour.
On Wednesday morning the delegates
met early and transacted considerable
business of interest to the order. The
revision of the constitution occupied a
large part of the session and the discus
sion of the changes to be made kept the
delegates interested all day.
In the evening the Hazleton com
manderes rendered them reception in

The Primitive Methodist conference,
which was in session at Avoca until
last Tuesday, decided to grant the re-
quest made by the congregation here, to
return Rev. S. Cooper as pastor, and in
arranging the appointments for the en-
suing year this was agreed to. Rev.
Cooper's friends are greatly pleased at
the action of the conference, and the
minister himself is well satisfied in be-
ing returned, as it will give him an OPP
portunity to continue many plans he
has under way to advance the growth
of the church here.

Pole named Joseph Windsit was killed
by the explosion of several boxes of dy-

How the powder became ignited is a

Parts of Windsit were found nearly 100

X. OF M. CONVENTION.
STATE COMMANDERY is STILL IN
SESSION AT THIS PLACE.
Delegates Expect to Complete Their
Work Today and Leave for Their
Homes Tomorrow-Visitors Pleased
with the Hospitality Shown Them.

with the Hospitality Shown Them.
The state commandery of the knights
of Malta expects to have it's labors com
pleted today, and when the delegates
leave town it is safe to say that they
will do so with the kindcst feelings
toward Freeland and the people whose
guests they have been since Monday
evening. The citizens have shown in
no mistaken manner their appreciation
of the state commanderys visit to this
place, and no town or city could try
harder to make the visitors sojourn
more pleasant. The people responded
to the request of the local knights to
decorate by making a display that was
indeed creditable. The streets and
buildings of town have holiday appear
ance still, but on Tuesday they were
decorated in the highest possible man
ner.
The first session Of the state com
mandery was held on Tuesday morning.
Grand Commander DIR. Il. w. Samuel, of
Mt Carmel, was the presiding officer,
and his report for the year 1s94-95 shows
the order to be prospering and rapidly
increasing in membership in all sections
of the state. The reports of Grand
Recorder George II. Pierce and the
various other officers were also encour-
aging. Supreme Commander w. J.
Rugh, of Pittsburg, and Supreme Re-
cordcr Frank Gray, of Chester, address
cd the delegates on behalf of the COM
mandery. In the afternoon eighty-two
members of the order were promoted to
the past commanders degree.
Grand Commander Samuel was the
recipient of very pretty ebony gavel
in the morning. Generalissimo G. w.
Bassler, of Sunbury, made the presenta-
tion address.
Shortly after o'clock the parade
formed in the order published in Mon
days issue. The number in line was
not so large as had been anticipated,
but the fine marching and general ap-
pearance of those who were on parade
made up for what the demonstration
lacked in numerical strength. The
music was furnished by the Mayberry
band of town, the National band of
Weatherly and the Sandy Run band.
Garfield Commandery had the most men
in line Gerard Commandery, of Wea-
theily, made a very creditable showing.
At 8 o'clock the opera house was
crowded to the doors. The exercises
commenced with an overture by the
Mayberry band, after which Chairman
ID. l.. Kcars introduced Burgess Patrick
Mclaughlin, who extended, on behalf
of the citizens, a hearty welcome to the
delegates and their friends. He said
Freeland felt honored in having been
chosen as the place to hold the conven-
tion, and assured them that their visit
would lie made as pleasant as could
be. In concluding he accorded them
the freedom of the town.
The address of the burgess was re-
sponded to by DIR. e. w. Samuel, the
state commander, who thanked Mr..

greatly by the visitors.
One of the events of the day was the
presentation OF Maltese cross to
Supreme Commander Rugh, of Pitts
burg. The gift is an exceptionally fine
piece of work, the cross being inlaid
with rubies. Past Commander Edmunds,
of Philadelphia, made the presentation
for the delegates.
Today's session will conclude the con-
vocation. The grand officers will be
elected before adjourning, and there is
much speculation and friendly rivalry
for some of the honors. Altoona is
making u strong claim for the conven-
tion in 1896, and it is thought that city
will win.
There are about $50 delegates in at
tendance at the convocation, represent
ing Knights of Malta from all parts of
Pennsylvania. They are a gentlemanly

A Few Words About Hats,

1t is doubtful if many people in this
vicinity realize that Freeland has one
of the largest hat stores in this portion
of the state. This, however, is a fact,
which can be proven by a visit to the
store of l.. Olsho, who for some time
past has been making speciality of the
hat trade, and has so far been en-
couraged that he today can exhibit a
stock which is not surpassable in any
town of this size. The stock just now
comprises more than $500 hats, and the
man has not yet to be found whose taste
cannot be satisfied by Olsho. Straw
goods and light summer felt hats are in
demand at present, and with these the
store is simply packed. Every shade and
size, in the latest styles, are there, and
no one should buy before visit to an
establishment where you have hundreds
to chose from. Another important point
is the price. That will please you
beyond q doubt,

Judged a Juror by His Clothes.

From the Wi1kesbarre Times.
Fred Bittenbender, of Nanticoke, one
of the men drawn on the jury list, was
refused admission into the court room
last Monday. The officers at the door
refused him admission because he was
not well dressed, thinking Fred was
trying to fool them. Bittenbender was
fined $50 by Judge Woodward for not
being present, and when he did gain
admission he had considerable difficulty
explaining his absence.

The congregation of st. Johns Re-
formed church was made happy on Sun
day by the announcement that the
church is now free from debt, the last
dollar of the Indebtedness having been
paid last week. Over 81, 300 was raised
for this purpose during the past two
years by the energetic pastor, Rev. IL.
A. l. Benner, who was ably assisted by
several of the congregation. The church
now has membership of over 800, of
which number 4O3 have been confirmed.
