The strained relations existing be-
tween the United States and Spain, and
the possibility of war being declared,
has had its effect upon the patriotically
inclined people of town. II hostilities
should begin it is certain that Free
lands quota of warriors would respond
at the first call. War is the main sub
ject of conversation wherever citizens
gather, and among those who express
them ready to go the front at once are
several members of Maj. G. B. Coke
Post, G. A. r. The old veterans are be-
ginning to feel young again as they read
of the extraordinary precautions and
preparations that are being made by the
government. The foreignborn citizens
of town are also taking deep interest
in the matter. Nearly all have served
in European armies, and should their
adopted country require their aid the
military knowledge they possess would
make them valuable recruits.

The new time table of the Lehigh
Valley Railroad is published for the fl rst
time today. Since 1t went into effect,
on February 20, the public has been at
loss to learn how many trains a day
the new schedule gave to Freeland. A
perusal of the table, as given in nm ad-
Joining column, shows that we are not
quite as badly situated as SOME thought.
This morning u new train was put on,
leaving here at S.45 o'clock and making
connections at the Lumber Yard for all
points East. 1t returns at 9..5 a. M.
bringing in the morning mail the same
time as was done under the old time
table.
II the 6 o'clock morning train, with
mail connections, should be put on n
again, and a connection given with tht
Philadelphia and New York train which
leaves Hazleton at 1.4s p. m., no further
complaints would be heard. The taking
off of the morning train, and stripping
us of all connections with the large
cities after s.45 a. m, has made it in
convenient for many people.
Freeland's present mail service is as
follows: Mails close at postoflics at
Z a. m, 11.20 m, 2.10 p. m. and $50
p. IN. Mails arrive at 0.35 Il. m, 1l.54

JEODO NEWS.

Cleaning and shipping coal is becom-
ing a science under Markle & Co. Re-
cord after record is smashed at the two
big breakers here, and still the orders
come TO rush everything faster and
faster. At No. 4 over 800 monster cars
are hoisted from the mines every day,
tho coal is sent whirling through the
most improved machinery in the market,
and two engines and crews are kept
working like beavers hauling it to the
Lumber Yard and bringing in empty
gondolas. At No. the number OF cars
hoisted is about $50 less than at No. 4,
the slope being. deeper, but the same
hustle and activity take place outside
1t is said that the capacities Of the
plants will be gradually increased until
the average daily record of hoisted cars
shall be /, 200 at No. and 500 at No. 8.
To the unnitiatsd it is a mystery where
the coal comes from.

Law Is a Costly Luxury.

10" 70 Sost'y AuNurSs
From the Towanda Argus.
The expense and foolishness of going
to law" only when actually forced to dc
so, had remarkable divulgence in the
suit of Nate S. Frazier VS.. Wysox town
ship, which took up most of last week.
Mr.. Frazier lives in Wyalusing town
ship, and in driving to Towanda while
crossing bad, frozen place in the road
in Wysox township he was overturned
and quite badly iniured-hence the suit
for damages.
Over $50 witnesses were on hand for
several days. They testified one way
and the township witnesses another
while the attorneys chewed each other
like two bull dogs.
Result, the jury brought in S27g
damages for Mr.. Frazier. 1t will cost
Frazier twice that for his attorneys, un.
less they have agreed to 90 "snooks'
with him on the result; while Wosos
township will be stuck somewhere from
5000 to 81, 900 for costs and attorney fees.

Tuscarora's Peculiar Epidemic.

From the Tamaqua Courier.
We have heard of most all kinds of
epidemic now known to medical science,
but Tuscarora's recent outbreak of a
'pink-eye" epidemic takes the bun.
The peculiariity of it is that only one
eye becomes affected and that in ii
single night. Some may think it new
form of sty, but such is not the case.
the eye when affected does not get sore
but turns to Il delicate pink and rt
mains so for weeks. 1t is of no great
annoyance save a slight itching. Sey-
era town physicians are trying to dis
cover what it is and give it II name f
possible. Over half of Tuscarora is al
fected.

Pink-Eye in Old Tuscorora.

Chances at "A Freeland Fair-A Warming
to Those Who Think of Going to Law,
Pink-Eye in Old Tuscorora.
From the Wilkesbarre Leader.
Down at the Mercy hospital fair Attor
ney Charles MclIugh stood with paddle
in his hand waiting for the wheel to turn
and in its sudden stoppage either make
him one dollar or lose him ten cents.
Yes" he said, II have taken many
chances, but do not believe in taking
more than one chance on any article ii
person has a desire TO win that parti-
cular article"
'She off, some one shouted and
around went the wheel while all the
paddle holders wondered.
''Thirty-eight," sang the man at the
wheel. That's me, said a sweet-faced
girl and Mr.. McHugh with a sigh handed
up his paddle and continued Il have
had many evidences of the man with
one chance winning, the most striking
Of which happened to my father. At
the close of fair down in Frceand a
doll was to be chanced of, and the fair
management insisted on realizing 50
from the same. To hurry matters and
help the good cause along, my father
took the sixty chances. With him was
friend who was anxious to have one of
the chances, and my father gave it to
him. And what do you think? Why
the man with the one chance won."
Some again might think that there
was something Jonahsh in the McHugh
family, but the recent success of the
Third Class city movement in which
Charles was leader establishes the fact
that where brains and not luck is the
essential the McHughs are all right.
