companies since yesterday morning and
will be allowed their regular pay and
rntion money, amounting to so cents per
day for the extra ten days-an increase
of 25 cents per day. This extension of

animation of the men and look over the

get ready to be mustered out before the
day set such company will be mustered
out at once and paid in full

There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it a local disease, and prescrib-
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment, pro-
nounced 1t incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease and therefore requires corstitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. j. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. 1t is taken in
ternally in doses from ten drops to a
teaspoonful. 1t acts directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces OF the sys-
tenn. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials. Address.

REPUBLICAN RALLY.
Smallest Political Meeting Ever Held in
Town Was Last Nights Gathering.

The Republican rally at Yannes' opera
house last evening was the smallest
political meeting that has ever been
held in Freeland borough. The apathy
of the party advocates and workers was
never more apparent than it was last
night. Many Republicans on the streets
absolutely refused to go near the hall,
of enthusiasm. The Citizens band
rendered some selections on the street
and in the opera house, and attracted
about forty voters, several of whom
were Democrats. Many of these de-
parted before the speakers concluded
George ]. Brown, ESQ, was chairman
of the evening and opened the rally with
few appropriate remarks, after which
he introduced w. w. Totheroh. SPELL
binder from Chester county. Had the
audience been of the size unusually fur
nished by Freeland voters, the speaker
would undoubtedly have delivered a
stronger political address. AS it was.
talking politics to a cold, unsympathetic
asse mblage required no small amount of
courage, and Mr.. Totheroh realized this
He therefore confined his remarks
wholly to fairy tales and humorous
anecdotes, which seem to be his forte,
and said no more on political questions
than was really necessary. His stories
were enjoyed by the little gathering,
and larger audience will attend if he
comes this way again, which is not
likely.
j. M. Evans, Of Mercer county, who
looks like as il he has been holding some
large fat political office for several
years, was the next and last to try to
warm up the building. He talked war,
war, war. Then he told why he thought
it was necessary that the Republicans
should be elected next month. Then he
retired.
telegram from Hon. w. II. Fairless,
of Virginia, stating that he missed con-
nections for Freeland, was received.
Mr.. Fairless was counted upon to do the
heavy work on this occasion, and his
failure to appear made the meeting a
political rally in name only.

Ravine "squoeze" Spreading.

The squeeze in the Ravine shaft at
Pittston continues to spread in the
Checker and Pittston veins. A large
force of men are unable to stop it, as
the squeeze has extended to the air
shaft and has prevented the running of
the carriage to all the viens. Men are
now busy timbering in the shaft to keep
back the squeeze and to make an effort
to clear the shaft so that the carriage
can be run without being jammed fast.

MINERS NARROW ESCAPE.
FIRE THREATENED THE LIVES OF
SEVERAL HUNDRED MEN.
Employees in a wilkesbarre Mine Would
Have Been Suffocated If Prompt Notice

Had Not Been Sent Them-Fan House
on the Surface Destroyed.
A fire in the Midvale nest of the Lee
high Valley collieries Tuesday morning
threatened the lives of several hundred
Wilkesbarre miners employed there,
but, owing to the foresight and the quick
alarm given by the men on the surface
they were all got out of the mine with
out injury. About half-past 0 the fan
house at the head of the Prospect shaft
was discovered to be on ire. The flames
spread rapidly. The first thought was
for the men in the mines, for the stop
ping of the fan meant that their lives
were in instant danger, owing TO the
collection of the gas. Messages were
sent down to the foot tender and hurried
through the mine and the men got out
very rapidly.
The fire when first discovered was
very small, but the constant and heavy
draft of the fan spread the flames so
rapidly that in very short time the
entire roof of the building was in flames,
T..
People from all the towns nearby were
attracted to the scene, fearing that
there had been big accident.
Fortunately superintendent Chase was
at the mine at the time and he directed
the work. The mines IRE company did
efficient service, and with the aid of a
large bucket brigade the fire was pre-
vented from Speeding to the shaft and
to the big new breaker which is just
being completed. The air shaft, how
ever, caught fire and was slightly dam
aged.
The fire was caused by a red-hot bolt
dropping from the top of the new break
er, where there are men riveting on the
iron roof

WITHOUT A REMEDY.
Report Touching Complaint Against
Method of Switching Cars.

Complaint was recently made to the Dis
trict Commissioners by Mr.. Harry 0.
Chamberlin of i57 Florida averue of the
methods employed by the Capital Traction
Con pany in switching and changing its
cars at 9TH street and Florida avenue. The
con plant was referred to Inspector James
Watson of the engineer department for in
vestigation, and he has reported to the
Commissioners that, in his opinion, in
which the Commissioners have concurred,
there is no way to afford immediate relief
from the present method Of shifting cars
at the point in question.
Mr.. Chamberlin stated that whenever a
train stops and unlcads its passengers upon
arriving at the end of the line the rear car
invariably extends half way across L
street, or probably from ten TO fifteen
feet, and remains in that position till the
car preceding this train is allowed to run
back, touching the motor car, when the
latter is used 10 push the former up to
the end of the track to be switched of

ticn, he asserted, though an important one,
is small compared with the great danger
che encounters in attempting TO cross 1th

from the east to the west side. for, as he
explained, while the north-bound train il

quent narrow escapes have been obs rved,
he stated, and he attributed the escapes

anything else.
Inspector Watson stated that. after re-
peated examinations of the conditions on
1th street between 7 street AMI Florida
avenue, he could see no way TO afford i'm
mediate relief from the present method of
shifting cars at this point. He said that il
is necessary that the motor car and two
passenger coaches, in front and one
in the rear of the motor car, remain on
the up track to facilitate the shifting
