The eisteddfod given at Tumbling Run

cess. Daniel j. Thomas, of MahanOy City,

sided, while Capt Edward Reese and Rces

What promises to be an important develop
ment of anthracite was on Thursday begun
in a five mile tract two miles west of Shepp-
ton, adjoining the Cross Creek Coal Co.'S
mines at Oneida belonging to Coke Bros. &
Co. The new field is owned by Dull & Co.,
the firm comprising Mr.. Dull, of Harrisburg,
f. S. Silliman. of Mahanoy City, and Daniel
Shepp, of Tamaqua. A force of about twenty
men under the supervision of John Skeath,
ex-Division Superintendent of the Coal &
Iron Company at Mahanoy City, began the
work of proving and sinking bore holes. The
tract is said to give promise of an abundant
yield, and no effort will be spared in the
direction of locating the veins and in the
subsequent building of slopes.

COUNCILS ADVISERS.
Chairman Burns Selects Twenty-Five Tax
payers for That Purpose.

At the meeting of taxpayers and others held
in Robbins opera house Thursday evening,
a RESI- liiDn was adopted empowering the
chairman of the meeting, John Burns, to
appoint committee of five property owners
from e. ch ward, for the purpose of consider
ing ,ry water question in all its bearings,
and to act as an advisory committee to the
Borough Council or, more truthfully
spea king, seven members Of that body
The selections have been made, after due
deliheration by the people who favor the
construction of the reserIoir. and are an
nouuccd by Chairman Burns as follows:
FIRST WARD:-Frank McAndrew, Timothy
O'Breu, Joseph Coughlin, John Berg, Zeph
Robbins.
SECOND WARD John Burns, Michael
o'Hqra, James O'Harep, T. f. Bradigan, T.
f. Miles.
THIRD WARD u J. Franey, William II. .
Glenn, Y. j. Higgins, William Kimmel, Z. J.
Davies,
FOURTH WARD.-James Bell, Supt., r. j.
Mulnhcy, James O'Hearn, Patrick COnnors
Morgan Davies.
FIFTH WARD.-Patrick Mcclure, Christ
Schmidt Thomas Conville, James Hilbert
William Britt.
The members of the committee, according
to tie statement of the chairman, will meet
in the Borough Council chamber on Monday
evening next, at 7:3O o'clock, for the purpose
of Quilting the work in hand. The committee
will subsequently meet the Borough Council
ut "a time to be decided upon later.
With probably few exceptions, the menu
bers Of the committee always take an active
interest in public affairs and especially have
they assumed aggressive position on the
reservoir question. Most of them, at least
those who have given public expression to
their opinions, favor the erection of the
reservoir as proposed by the seven members
of Council. The sentiment of the taxpayers
at the meeting Thursday night was clearly in
favor of stopping work on the reservoir al
once, although the chairman declared mo
tion to that effect lost, when the vote was
ten to one in the affirmative. The people OF
the borough, therefore, anxiously await the
action of the committee of twenty We
These gentlemen know the sentiments of the
taxpayers upon the subject and the latter
look to the committee to carry out these
wishes.
1t is probable a special meeting of the
Borough Council will be called, either Mon
day or Tuesday evening, as the members Of
that body now know the sentiments of the
people. The seven members who favored
the reservoir project can hardly assume 8
position antagonistic to public sentiment
and Mr.. Bell will likely find himself in the
minority in pushing the project ahead.
The suggestion has been made that the
meetings of the committee should be ac
cessible to those taxpayers interested in
borough affairs, and that their deliberation,
should be given as much publicity as pos
sible. Objection is raised to this for severa
very good reasons, and one or two members
of the committee suggest that representa-
tives of the press be allowed to report th'
deliberations Of the committee, and thu
keep the people informed upon this now all
important question. Let there be no star
chamber meetings.
