allege that the accident at Hazeton
Junction, by which four lives were lost
owing to a trolley car and engine col
liding, has not made the Lehigh Trac-
tiOn conductors and motormen any more
careful than before. The railroaders
complain regularly of the recklessness
with which trolley cars are speeded
across ID. S. & S. tracks, and on several
occasions lately wrecks We're narrowly
averted. The South Side branch, espe-
cially, is said to have many trolley men
who take dangerous chances when
crossing railroads.
Several ID. S. Il $. employees have been
interviewed regarding this matter, and
the above has been corroborated by over
dozen men who work ON the road and
have witnessed this careleSSness.

Costly Wreck on the Lehigh Valley.

On Monday II disastrous wreck occur

Valley engine No. 5s7, with large
train of cars loaded with coal, was on
its way to Packerton, followed by d. S.
& S. engine No. 23, also drawing a
heavy train en- route for Perth AmbOy.
The train of the latter dashed into the
rear of the train in front with terrific
force, deraling about thirty cars of both
trains, as well as the ID. s. & S. engine
The Drifton train was in charge of En-
gineer Sands and Conductor Kline.
The wreck happened on sharp curve
and it was the most complete in point
of broken cars that has ever occurred
on the division. Cars were scattered in
all directions, the majority going over a
steep embankment, while others were
piled thirty feet high. The d. S. & s.
engine was dtched and is badly demol-
ished. None of the crews were injured.
The tracks for distance of hundred
yards were torn up and rails were badly
twisted.
An investigation will be made by both
companies to ascertain which crew was

BE Partially Independent of the FIuc.

Freeland for years has depended al
most solely for support on the mines
railroads and shops which surround it.
and its business interests are yet large

tries. Within year or two, however.
the town has stepped forward at re-
markable pace in the way of becoming
partially independent of this support,
and if the same rapid progress is main
tanned for few years more Frceland

the coal region. The fluctuations in the
that nothing should be left undone by
our citizens to seek commercial inde-
pendence from these industries, and
this can only be done by fostering va

The work which has been begun by

ready had telling effect upon the peo-
pie who are permanently located here.
Our citizens have had shown to them
that the procuring of factories, mills
and other labor-employing concerns is
not so hard as was imagined, when the
object in view is gone about in system

town on to continue increasing the
avenues of employment for its surplus

mower works, is knocking at our doors,

why it should be kept waiting for the
invitation to come in. 1t will employ

Fire Sweeps a Small Village.

morning, and seyen houses were totally
destroyed, the loss being about S12 900.
The fire started in the hotel of Timothy
Calvin, "A three-story brick building. 1t
had burned out the lower part of the
house before it was discovered, and the
inmates had barely time to save them
selves. The fire rapidly communicated
to the houses of James Gurvid, double
block occupied by Mrs. William Gariod,
the house and blacksmithshop of John
T. Brady, and the houses of John Kiln
ko, James Clune, Mrs. Edgar Boland
and John Malaga. All these were de-
stroyed and others would have been
burned had not big bucket brigade
worked hard to save them.
To add to the confusion the front wall
of the large hotel fell into the street,
breaking the trolley wire and blocking
the road for some time. Nine families
were made homeless.
