BASE BALL
IN COURT.
The Shenandoah Association Con-
victS Fence Jumper.
IT WAS MADE A TEST CASE
A Claim That a Game of Base Bail
Played on Sunday is no Excuse
For TreSpaSS.

Yesterday was Shenandoahs' day at the
Pottsville criminal court and several cases
were disposed of, resulting in five young
polish fellows going to Jail. One OF the
most Interesting cases was that in which
the Shenandoah Base Ball Association
made test as to its right to punish in
truders at the Trotting park. During the
last base ball season the management
experienced great difficulty in prevent
ing fence jumping at the games
Those who INDUCED in this prac-
tice set the management at defiance,
feeling secure in the belief that prose-
jumping was done at Sunday base ball
games. Stephen Bolinsky was one of the
jumpers caught and his case was pushed
to trial on charges of malicious mischief
and assault and battery. The young
man was convicted and sentenced to i'm.
prisonment for thirty days. The cours
held that it made no difference whether
or not the base ball association had con-
Quoted an illegal business in having base
ball played on Sunday, so far as the
charge against the prisoner was concerned
that the association could not be deprived
of that right to prosecute trespassers on
it's property, irrespective of the day on
which the trespass was committed.
The Main street clothing and shoe cases
also came up in court yesterday. Joe Pick
alosky, alias "Smithy," of VIM. Penn,
and Peter Lutunis, of town, were placed
on trial for robbing a clothing dummy,
stealing shoes and gloves, and breaking
out of the lookup. Each was sentenced
to thirty days imprisonment.
William Coslosky and Joseph MaholsBi
were placed on trial for receiving some Of
the goods stolen by Pickolosky and
Lutunls and were each sentenced to i'm
prisonm snt for twenty days.
j. w. Goff, who was the Tamaqua
agent for G. j. Quinn, the Singer Sewing
Machine agent of this town, was yester'
day indicted by the grand jury for en-
bezzling upwards of $500 of the company'f
funds.

of some men to seek election to the Bor-

anxious to arrange matters so that they
can get a share OF the profits from haul

LOCAL POLITICS.
Candidates For School Board and COun-
Gil Suggested.

EDITOR HERALD = Allow me space in
your valuable and much read paper to
suggest two residents of the second ward
as suitable men for election to the Bor-
ough Council. They are P. j. Ferguson
and Elmer j. Wasley, two of the best
known citizens of the town aud whose in
terests in the welfare of the place are ex-
tensive. They could he relied upon to leg
islate only for the best Interests of he
people. Both are thorough business men.
Mr.. P. j. 5erguson is the largest property
holder in the town and he could be relied
upon to cut down all unnecessary expen.
ses and stop leakages. Mr.. Wasley is also
extensively interested in town pro perty
and necessarily has the best interests of
the town at heart. Republicans, Citizens
and Democrats should cast aside party
lines and start out handling the borough's
affairs on business principles. 1t is time
for the Councilmen to do something be-
side wrangliug over appointments and
waging warfare on their fellow citizens.

There is 70 be a "blow out" at Noel

the auspices of the Jeanesville Iron
Works. Invitations have been sent to all
the Couneilmen and several other people
of more or less distinction. The Council
is to meet on that night to formally accept
the pumps and other apparatus supplied
by the company for the public water

The softness of some of the political
snaps at Harrisburg is to be reduced. The
chief clerks of both houses have given
notice that all employees must report for
duty punctually and in person, or they
will not be allowed to draw their pay.
This will work "hardship" to many of
the employees who hold positions else
where and expected to farm out" their
places. 1t has been the custom for years
among certain class of politicians
through the state to secure position in
the legislature as paster and folder or
some other subordinate place which pays
five or six dollars day and hire somebody
else to do the work for less than half the
regular salary. In the last session three
of the four assistant sergeants.at-arms
formed a pool and engaged two local
politicians to do their work for S12 a week
apiece and they pocketed the balance
The new order means that the slate com
mittee of both bodies will have quite a
number of places at their disposal within
short time, as there were several persons
appointed to place at the organization
who will never accept if they have to per-
form the work in person.

time of all the collieries operated by the

about 1873 days in 1893 Notwithstanding
this very considerable falling off in the
time worked over 300, 900 more tons of coal
were produced than in 1898. AS result
of the improvem ants made during the
past two or three years the combined daily
capacity of these collieries has risen from
