A CASE OF INTEREST.
Riotous Strikers Acquitted And Costs Put
On the Prosecutor.

A case of much Importance to cor
porations and workingmen was decid.
ed in the Wilkesbarre court Saturday.
In October the foreign miners in the
employ of the Lehigh Valley Co. at
Avoca went out on strike, because
they claimed they had been docked
excessively. The company attempted
to fill the places of the strikers with
new men. A conflict at once occur.
ed between the strikers and the new
comers. The battle took place on
the company's property. Stones and
clubs were used. The strikers were
victorious, but no one was seriously
injured. The company did not call
upon the sheriff for aid, but in time
they caused the arrest of the ringlead
ers of the strike. The men were
bound over for trial. The company
employed able counsel, and resolved
to test the right of strikers to intimid-
ate men who wanted to go to work,
and also what the privileges OF the
men were when they were on strike,
whether or not they had a right to
trespass on the company's property.
Ignatz Bolen, Anthony Slincol, An
thony Gedouch, Semon Bernitti, John
Rose, John Bavioch. John Visaplilkas
and Woodruff Corniski were the names
of the ringleaders who were arraigned
IN court. The company established
the fact that the riot took place on
its property, and that the strikers
made threats against the company CT
ficlals. Several workmen testified
that they joined the strikers through
fear. The defence claimed no acts of
violence had been committed by the
strikers The case was given to the
jury and verdict of not guilty was
returned, the prosecutor to pay the
costs.

FOOT BALL.

One of the seasons greatest contests
took place at Cambridge, Saturday
afternoon, between Yale and Harvard
In the presence of upwards of $4,000
people. Harvard was considered the
strongest of the two teams, and she
undoubtedly was, but luck was against
her, and the best she could do was to
keep the Sons of Eli from scoring.
By winning the toss, Yale had first
choice Of goals, and this alone was
quite an advantage, as the wind was
quite strong in their favor. 1t was a
hard fought stubborn contest. Score;
Harvard o, Yale O.
Saturday will be another great foot
ball day. The University of Pennsyl-
vania and Harvard will be pitted
against each other, and Yale and
Princeton will also contest honors.
1t IS rather hard to pick the winners
OF these two games, but it is our opin-
ION that the u. P. will be victorious
over Harvard, and unless Yale i'm
proves over her work of Saturday,
Princeton will have little trouble in
winning

THE BBInLEHEMs.

Bethlehem, South Bethlehem and
West Bethlehem contain a population
of about 10000. They are built on
rolling ground, and one must go up
or down hill to get anywhere. During
a two days stay there recently we
found excellent quarters at the Eagle
Hotel. The house is kept by Mrs.
Hopes, and she is ably assisted by
her nephew, Harry Chamberlain,
formerly OF this town, who has charge
Of the Office. His brother John is
also there as an assistant in the bar
and pool room. They are the sons of
the late Mills Chamberlin.
Bethlehem is an old town, having
been settled by the Moravians before
the revolution. There are number
Of quaint old buildings that ante-date
that period. The Moravians have a
large girls school, a parish school,
two churches, and other buildings.
The cemetery is one of the spots
always seen by visitors to the town.
The graves are in lines, and on each
one lies small square stone contain
ing name, dates &c. Some of them
are nearly 400 years old.
Lehigh University was visited on
Thursday morning, by Rev. ID. N.
Kirkby, Rev. J. ID. Rockwell, Col.
Freeze, Messrs. Townsend, Writ and
the writer. This institution is well
equipped to do great work. About
400 students are in attendance at
present. The college was founded by
Asa Packer, and several memorial
buildings have been built by members
of his family, including a beautiful
chapel, a library and gymnasium. The
latter building cannot compare either
in size or appointments with that at
our Normal school, in fact there are
few in the country that can.
Bethlehem seems like a prosperous
and growing town. We are unable to
say anything about her industries, as
time was too limited to permit a visit
to any Of them.

LOCAL s. S. INSTITUTE FOR BLOOM
DISTRICT.

According to announcement, the
S. S. Union Institute tor the district
of Bloom met in the Lutheran Church
at 1880. Tuesday evening, Nov. 70.
President w. X. Kccher called the
meeting to order, and opened with
singing, and prayer by Mr.. Wilson of
the Presbyterian Church. Rev. DR..
Rhodes was then introduced, and
spoke more than an hour on Sunday
School work. He held the attention
OF the audience closely during the
whole time, presenting very forcibly
and pleasantly the methods OF Bible
study calculated to interest the Sun.
day School scholar in the text of the
school-the Holy Scriptures.
There were three main thoughts in
his address: first, the use of the Bible
as well as the lesson leafin the school.
In this connection he gave very help
ful keys to the memorizng of the diff
ferent portions or books of the Bible,
and something of its wonderful history,
and so mucn the more valuable be-
cause of its accuracy.
In the second place he plead for
systematic and regularly graded Bible
study in the Sunday School. Com
pairing it in its usual careless, unsyste-
matte way with the public schools and
their perfect system, this was most
helpful part of the talk, and it is pity
that all in town could not have heard
it. He closed with an earnest word
about reaping in the Sunday School,
He said: "It seems that people are
content with sowing, but the Bible
says we are to reap as we'll as SOW and
therefore we ought to have reaping
days and gather the children and
young people in for Jesus" The
night was very inclement, but about

A BISHOP ELECTED.
blshop Talbot Of Wyoming and Idaho
Chosen for Central Pennsylvania.

On Wednesday of last week the
convention of the Episcopal Church
tor the diocese of Central Penn.
sylvania met i'll special session in
South Bethlehem, for the purpose of
electing a successor to the late Bishop
Rulison. st. Pauls Church, Blooms
burg, was represented by the Rector,
Rev. David N. Kirkby, and three lay
deputies, ]. r. Townsend, Paul f.
Writ, and Geo. +. Elwell, and by the
Chancellor of the Diocese, Col. J. G..
Freeze.
There was an unusually large atten-
dance, there being about SO clergy
men and 40 lay deputies present.
The sessions were held in the Parish
House of the Church of the Nativity,
and were presided over by Rev. M.
A. Tclman of Mauch Chunk. On
Tuesday evening beautiful service
was held in the church. On Wednes-
day morning there was a celebration
OF the Holy Communion, at 1870, and
at 0:3o second one with full choral
service and sermon on the life and
character of Bishop Rulison by Bis
hop Sattertee of Washington, d. c.
Fifteen names were presented as
candidates for Bishop as follows ::
Bishop Talbot, Rev. Israel of Scran-
ton, Powers of Pottsvile, Foley of
Willlamsport, Smith of, Washington,
McKlm of Washington, Baker of
Harrisburg, Bodine of Philadelphia,
Morrison Of Sunbury, Lindsay of Bos-
ton, Swentzell of Brooklyn, Stone of
Chicago, Mcconnell of Brooklyn,
Woodle of Altoona, and Riley of
Philadelphia.
The leading candidates frou the
start were Bishop Talbot and DR.. A.
Mackay Smith. The voting is done
by orders, the clergy and laity voting
separately. On the third ballot DR..
Smith led Bishop Talbot in the
clerical vote, but the laity gave
majority to Talbot.
On the fourth ballot all names were
dropped but the two leading ones,
and Talbot was elected by both or
ders, and the election was then made
unanimous.
The new Bishop of Central Penn.
sylvania is Al years old. He has
been Bishop of Wyoming and Idaho
ten years, and has brought the diocese
up to high standard of excellence.
He is described as possessing parti-
cularly winning and attractive manner,
wholesouled and generous-hearted. In
presence Bishop Talbot is tall and
commanding, and possessed of re-
markable physical vigor, He was
elected Bishop of Georgia several
years ago, but declined, as the work
in the West needed his attention. 1t
was argued by his supporters at the
convention that the diocese needs a
strong, stalwart man to attend the
many widely separated parishes Bis
hop Rulison's death is believed to
have been fastened by the overwork
and exertions entailed upon him, and
this argument was used by delegates
to the convention who deemed divi-
sion Of the diocese expedient. The
action of the convention in fixing the
salary Of the Bishop at $4,000 per
year, ST. 900 less than Bishop Ruison
received, is believed to be a step
toward division of the diocese, and
to show the trend in that direction.

Rabbits Not Mentioned.

The new game law has caused a
great deal of discussion as to whether
1t prohibits the buying and selling Of
rabbits. The law prohibits any person
TO purchase or have in possession or
expose for sale any of the aforesaid
song or wild birds or the game nam
mails killed or taken in the state, ex-
cept as hereinafter provided. In a
following section it then specifies the
D'rds and mammals intended, but II
does not mention rabbits. Many law
yers contend that the law is not oper-

not specifically mention them.
