The lake water was shut off in Red
Jacket for couple of hours yesterday,
but the damage was repaired in short
order so that not much inconvenience
was experienced. The trouble was with
the water mains on Sixth street. A four
inch main near Sotlich's store near ths
corner of Elm street burst and in turning
off the water to repair the damage the
stem OF the valve broke and 1t was nec-
essary to shut off the water all over the
village t. repair this. The main which
burst was put in fifteen years ago and has
seen long term OF service. The water
was turned off at noon and people had to
60 dry for two and one half hours. Capt.
], F. ID. Smith had a force of men at
work and did remarkably quick job in
repairing the damage.

Fifth Anniversary Celebrated.

The anniversary services at the Eng
lish Baptist church last Sunday were a
complete success, and the programme,
as outlined in previous issues, was car
red out fully. Rev. J. S. James, D. D.,
of Philadelphia, was present, and the
pretty edifice was crowded to the doors
to hear each one of mis- sermons. In the
morning Rev. James subject was
"Knowing the Father" in the afternoon
1.-THE Authenticity of the Gospels" and
in the evening 1.-The Joyful Element in
Divine Worship" After the afternoon
sermon the pastor, assisted by Rev. C. A.
Spaulding, of Hazleton, baptized six
persons.
The church, during the five years of
its existence, has made wonderful prog
ress, and the pastor and congregation
are both proud of its record.

A Cousin Charged with Mu der.

From the Hazleton Standard.
The jury empanelled by Deputy
Coroner Bowman on Saturday to inquire
into the death of Andrew Maverick, who
died at Lattimer, met on Monday even
ing to take testimony. A number of
Hungarians were examined, but no
light was thrown on the case. Mike
Elgo stated that on the night Andrew
Maverick sustained his injuries there
was fghs; he saw Andrew pick up a
fence rail and make pass at his cousin
Mike. A moment later Mike struck
Andrew, but whether it was with bot
tie or his bare fist he could not say. He
also stated that after Andrew returned
from the hospital he told him that his
cousin, Mike Maverick, was the one who
dealt the blow The prisoner was also
examined, but if he knew anything
about the fight he did not reveal it.
The jury after due deliberation render
ed verdict to the effect that the said
Andrew Maverick came to his death
from a blow delivered with a blunt in
strument, to the jury unknown, in the
hands of Mike Maverick, a cousin of the
deceased.
Maverick has been committed to the
county jail to stand trial for murder.

Burglars at Olsho's Again.

Two weeks ago this morning the
clothing and hat store of L. Olsho wa:
burglarized, and at about the same houl
today return trip was made. Shortly
before 3 o'clock Mr.. Olsho heard a noise
in the storeroom, under his sleeping
apartments, and Immediately rose to in
vestigate. He entered the storeroom
from rear door, but at first could see
no one. However, after proceeding q
short distance, mans form suddenly
rose from behind the opposite counter.
Mr.. Olsho made a rush for the intruder
who dropped an armful of goods and ran
for the front door This entrance was
securely locked, then the burglar dash
ed towards the lower window of the
store, through which he jumped feet
foremost. He landed in heap on the
sidewalk outside, and before the pro-
prietor could get out he had recovered
himself and disappeared. Mr.. Olsho
was unarmed at the time.
officer j. ]. Kennedy and other d. S.
& S. Railroad men were returning from
work and were apprised of the occur
renee. An investigation was begun.
and it was found that the man effected
an entrance by forcing open rear door
of the cellar. Proceeding part way up
the steps leading to the first floor, he
cut hole 12X16 inches through the plas-
tered wall, which gave him an opening
into the store. The hole, however, led
into large glass hat case, the doors of
which he had to pry open to get at the
other goods.
large box had been filed with shirts
hose, ties and other gents furnishings
and was ready to be taken away. Other
shirts had been tied together, forming
bags to carry off plunder. Several cards
of jewelry were taken from show case
and 60 cents from the cash drawer, all OF
which he pocketed.
Burgess Mclaughlin, Chief of Police
Gallagher and Officer D. j. Boyle were
summoned. With other persons they
followed tracks in the light snow from
the cellar door to the house of Mrs. An
ME Superko, Ridge street, below Lu-
zerne. Stephen Martinek, Metro Ban
mack and John Kamenski were arrested
and taken before Squire Buckley. The
first two claim to be able to prove an
alibi and all were remanded for fur
ther hearing at O'Clock tonight.
Beyond the loss of the jewelry, money
and two large panes of glass, Mr.. Olsho's
loss is not serious. The store would
probably have been well cleaned had
not the noise awakened the proprietor.
Night Watchman Haas did not see any
suspicious characters around.
While going through the window the
burglar dropped his cap. This may
assist in locating the thief.

OPERA HOUSE NOTES.

The Canadian Jubilee Singers will
appear here on Monday and Tuesday
evenings of next week. These people
have an international reputation and
every lover Of good singing ought to at
tend. On Tuesday evening complete
election returns will be announced from
the stage as soon as the vote of each poll
is counted.
The MAIDS drill, which will be given at
the entertainment on next Sunday by
twentyfour young ladies from the Ben
Hur Company, is said to be one of the
most artistic exhibitions which has ever
been attempted here. The remainder of
the programme is also of a high order.
Madame and Augustin Neuville, in
'The Boy Tramp" will be seen at the
Grand on the evening of the Goth. This
sensational drama was always popular
one in town.
The "Real Widow Brown" as played
last evening at the Grand opera house,
was poorly presented. The audience
was thoroughly dissatisfied with the
show.
The noted Irish singer, Andrew Mack,
has been secured for date by Manager
Welsh. He will be here some evening
during the week of March s.
"The Yellow Kid" comes on Wednas-
evening next. 1t is pronounced all
right.

The regular meeting of the Board of
Trade was held last evening. There
was no business of particular Importance
transacted. The Overall Company again
requested the board to take some action

bonds. The extension of the trolley
road to tho upper end of town was dis
cussed at length, and committee was
appointed to wait on Mr.. Markle, the
general manager. The treasurer report
ed balance of less than $40 on hand.
E. A. Oberrender rendered his resigna-
tion as a member, but no action was
taken on the same last night.

The Canadian Jubilee Singers.

rTOH tuc CtlCu
The old plantation songs will never
lose their attraction for lovers of pure
and simple melody, and when sung by
such company as the Canadian Jubilee
Singers, who appeared here last even
ing, they are heard in their full power
and pathos. The company consists Of
eleven members, and was formed about
sixteen years ago They have Travelled
extensively, having spent five years in
Europe. The programme last evening
was varied one, and every number was
loudly applauded, while many were
encored. The soprano solo by Miss
Stewart was especially fine, and when as
an encore she sang "Old Folks at
Home" there was the most intense quiet
in the room. The bass solo, "a Jolly
Good Laugh" exhibited the full, rich
bass of j. A. Cockbn, and convulsed all
with laugher. The selection by the
male qrartette is deserving of mention,
as is the bass solo by j. E. Lightfoot.
The entertainment as whole was an
excellent one.

A Young Mans Death.

On Monday afternoon Emmett Swee-
ney, the eldest son of Mr.. and Mrs. E.
j. Sweeney, of Drifton, died at the fam
lily residence in that town. For the past
few years he has been in i'll health and
his death was not unexpected. A year
ago his parents sent him to California,
thinking a change of climate might i'm
prove his health, but the improvement,
if any, that resulted was only temporary.
His age was 20 years and 2 months. He
was bright young man and his parents
have the sympathy of the community in
their loss.
The funeral took place yesterday
afternoon. The remains were followed
to st. AIMS cemetery by many friends.
