the opposite end, in Sharkeys corner,
yelled for Sharkey, and the men were
led back to their dressing rooms.
The thousands of spectators were
banked 40 feet high in the building,
the place being packed from ringside

ring were lined. The tremendous
crowd sweated under the glare of 400

canvas of the squared circle. The
heat was intense. The fighters were
almost exhausted. and the spectators
shrieked themselves hoarse.

be a short fight, for in the second
round Jeffries put the sailor to the

the decision at the end of the twenty

Proud Recorc

Schuylkill county, and his name is a
household word, and his reputation
is as wide as the state of Pennsylvania
Hon. John T. Schooner, the Republi-
can candidate for Clerk of the Courts, was
born in South Mannheim township. and is
now a resident of Orwigsburg. On his
fathers side his great-grand- father, Frederick
Hesser, had the distinction of being with
Washington at Valley Forge
Mr.. Schooner received good common
school education and further fitted himself
for the sphere of life for which be seems to
be specially adapted by course at Henne-
pin, ILL., At the end of four years he grad
uated. Taking up the profession of school
teaching he taught six years-in Hennepin,
H., North Mannheim, East Brunswick and
Orwigsburg respectively. In 1878, with
Messrs. Meyer and Holy as partners, he
started up Orwigsburg's first shoe factory
and through the application of correct busi-
ness principles and untiring industry he
made it a successful venture.
Personally Mr.. Schooner is possessed of
those elements of character which win the
respect and esteem of all with whom he
comes in contact, and, as natural conse-
quence, his friends are to be found in every
walk of life. His reelection as Clerk of the
Courts, which now seems assured, will mean

Comparison with the Republican Candi-
date Not Favorable to Nichter.
To the Editor Of the HERALD
win you please give the following article
space in the columns of your paper:
No contrast could be more sharp or marked
between opponents for any office than in the
two candidates for Recorder.
Mr. Jenkin is a type Of the best product Of
the workinRman, with diligent application,
taking advantage of the patch school, the
newspapers and Sunday school library to
acquire knowledge aud fit himself for Ameri-
eau citizenship. Although a student OF his
country institutions he best exemplifes his
love for state by a marked devotion to home
If a clean business administration of trust
Office and a sincere devotion to family and
fireside are creditable to a man, then Mr.
Jeukyn well deserves consideration at the
hands of well thinking people.
If the matter Of having two profitable
liquor stores under one roof is a measure Of
business capacity, it must be conceded that
Mr. Nichter has a mint and that he has
gained a reputation for generosity by lavish
display of fast horses, mouey .and diamonds.
and by the distribution Of free drinks. 1t is
upon his business and his prosperity that Mr.
Nichter is depending for his election. While
man engaged in doube-barreled liquor
business may well afford a generous distrbu-
ton OF free drinks to thirsty degenerates to
get their votes, is it not reflection on the
fire companies, social clubs and other organ
izatiuus for him to boldly claim that the
voters in these organizations are being
reached by this kind of lavish entertainment ?
Is not such hoast an insult to their good
moral sense and ideals of citizenship If men
are free citizens, is it not more fitting to re-
| buke the methods employed by Mr.. Nichter
as was done in 1898 by vigorous protest Of the
citizens against his appointment when his
name was up before Court for Commissioner 2
| If the voters of the county were to be
bought for the price of drink, Mr. NiChteI
would indeed be highly favored of fortune in
that no other man in the county is in a
position to buy at such a bargain. But
| though Mr.. Nichter and his friends boast Of
the frmen whose votes are to be landed fol
him because of the supplies to be furnished
to them from his wholesale and retail shop
still the good people of the county are moi
prepared to believe that Mr.. Nichter cal
have any such advantage and support as he
claims because of a liberal distribution of hi.
articles of commerce.
Have the voters ever had a more favorable
against this form Of campaigning than they
now have in making choice between Mr.
Jenkyn and Mr.. Nichter for Recorder o
Deefs? OBSERVER.

belittle Mr.. Schoeners labors in be-
half Of the establishment of the hos
pital, but the records Of the legislature
stand rs a rebuke to these Democra tic
organs. Hon. Patrick Conry and other
colleagues of the subject of this sketch will
substantiate that statement. Mr.. Schooner
introduced the bill in the Legislature for the
erection of the hospital and his speech on
that oc' 'assion shows very plainly that as a
legislator he early evinced an interest in the
welfare of his constituency, largely Of the
working class. Mr.. Schooner. however, is
only too willing to accord the other repre-
sentatives from this county equal credit
with himself in securing the necessary ap-
preparation, for without their hearty as
sistance he nor no other single individual
would have been unsuccessful. There is
enough glory in that achievement for ali.
But not alone for that reason does Mr..
Schooner seek the suffrage of his fellow citi-
zens He stands squsrely upon his record as
a public official. As Clerk of the Courts. he
! has honestly exercised the trust committed to
! him impartially, without fear OF favor He
] has 20 political entanglements, aud his pOpu-
larity was fully attested when no other name
was presented at the nominating convention
| Mr.. Schooner is power of strength to the
Republican ticket, and it is safe to say thai
/ he will succeed himself as Clerk of the
Courts.

A Successful Hunt.

Not for many years have rabbits been so
plentiful as they are this season. All of the
local hunters who enjoyed the opening days
of the season came home with well filled
game bags, reporting plenty of rabbits and
quail. The most successful so far reported is
George Green and his two brothers of Girard-
vile. They spent the past two or three days
in the Hazleton region, aud arrived in town
last night loaded down with game. They
stopped at Wyatt's saloon and many of the
local hunters viewed the result of the
deadly aim" of the Green boys. They had
with them 80 rabbits, 20 quail, and II pleas
ants, and presented John Wyatt with por-
ton of their booty"

the result stated.
Two other victims were under the care of
DR. Stein to day. One was Martin Flynn. of
West Line street. He had his right knee and
leg confused at the Turkey Run colliery by
being bumped between the bumpers of cars.
The other victim was Steve Rawicz, of East
Strawberry alley, boy 10 years old who
had his right ankle badly sprained at the
Ellangowan colliery by being caught by a
hosting rope.
