A COLLlERY CHANGE.
Lawrence Breaker to BE Abandoned
and coal Prepared at william 4.

The COnnell Coal company is making
preparations for an important change
at the Lawrence colliery, near Duryea
The intention is to abandon the Law
renee breaker. The underground work
Of the COlliery will continue, however,
and the coal will be run underground
to the William a. Shaft Of the same
company, hoisted at the latter and pre-
pared in the William A. Breaker.
The latter is one of the largest and
best equipped breakers in this section,
and it is expected that the coal from
the two mines can be prepared with
out difficulty in the one breaker, thus
centralizing the work and reducing the
cost of production. Included in the
Lawrence workings are two tunnels,
the coal from which is brought to the
surface. Under the new arrangement,
the cars from these places will be low
cred in the shaft and then run under
ground to the William A. shaft.
The necessary changes in the roads
at the top of the shaft are now being
made, but it has not been decided
when the new order of things will go
into effect-Pittston Gazette.

Yesterday morning Judges Gunster
and Edwards handed down their find
ings in a number of cases which they
have had under consideration and also
made orders in several matters recent
ly presented
Judge Edwards struck off the rule
for judgment for want Of an affidavit
of defense in the case of Samuel Jones
against the Fell township poor board.
The question at issue was: Does a
poor district, a quasl-municipal corpor-
alton. come within the provision of the
act Of assembly exempting municipal
corporations from the nee ssity of filing
an affidavit of defense"
The strict definition Of municipality
would exclude counties, townships,
school districts and poor districts, says
Judge Edwards 1t has been held
however, that the exemption in Qus s.
tiOn extends to. counties. The reason
ing aduntod i'm the cases i'm which this
has been held would extend the eX-
,Cmption to poor districts. The reason
for excmpting the directors of a poor
district from the provisions of the law
requiring an affidavit of defense is
bas upon the same necessity as
would apply to the councils of a city.
They all act in a representative cap
acity. \ suit against them would
very likely involve facts not within
their personal knowledge and would
probably require consultation with
their predcc ssors i'm office.
ACTED AS NURSE.
James, the plaintiff. sued for $50
for services as nurse, alleging that he
had been engaged 10y one Of the over
sears. Michael Grady, to nurse one
David James, n defendant Of the dis
trict. He sued and recovered judg-
ment before Nicholas Ctynn, justice Of
the peace Of Fell The poor authori-
it's took an appeal. They made no af-
fidavit of defense within the required
time and James moved for judgment
on this ground.
In the case Of NJ. Robinson against
Charles Beck, Judge Gunster renders
the following opinion:
Rule to open juIgment-The note on
which this Judgment was entered is dated
Feb. s. 1887 and is made payable three
months after date The judgment was
entered June -, 1897. I'm BatCs-Culman

fcndant in such judgment, who has had
no day in court, should be given an OPP
portunity to set up the statute of lin
itatons even though no other ground OF
defense be shown. The rule is made abso.
Lutte.
Judge Edwards discharged the rule
for new trial in the case Of NJ KOp'
Ian & Co. against j. S. Miller i.nc
others, and submitted the following
opinion:
Rule for a new trial-On a review o
the case we are satisfied that it wa.
properly submitted to the jury and tina
the verdict is justified by the evidence
In view of all the testimony it was i'm
possible to take the question of frauC
from the jury. The rule for new tria
is discharged ana a new trial refused.
