P0st0ffice Robbers Held.

Martin Golden and Patrick Holleran,
charged with being implicated in the
robbery at the Parsons postoflice and
store of Michael Moore on July 10, were
given hearing before United States
Commissioner Gustav Hahn.
Richard Moore, the postmaster, testi-
fled that several articles had been
stolen, but nothing connected with the
postoilico had been taken.
James Flaherty testified that Golden
had given him knife and some cans of
Soup, which had evidently been taken
from Moore's store.
Constable Mulvey testified that he
searched Holleran's premises and found
some knives under the barn.
Both were held under 81 900 bail for
their appearance at the next term of
court at Scranton. Holleran's mother
went his bail and Golden's father went
on the bond of his son.

Weller Act Not Valid.

What is commonly known as the
Weller act, passed by the legislature in
1897, making it misdemeanor for a
corporation to discharge an employe
because of his utilization with labor
organization, is declared unconstitu.
tional by the superior court in an
opinion handed down in the case of the
commonwealth against George Clark
an appeal from the quarter sessions
court of Lackawanna county.
Clark, as forman, it is alleged, dis.
charged two men for having joined a
labor union. He was indicted under the
Weller act and the case called for trial
one year ago last spring.
The late Judge f. w. Gunster quash-
ed the indictment on the ground that as
the act referred only to corporations
and did not affect firms, individuals OF
limited partnerships, it was special leg.
islatlon, and therefore unconstitutional.
This view of the case the superior court
sustains.

Flower Thieves.

Last Friday evening some unknown
parties entered the yard of Mrs. Fred
Miller, on Front street, and ruined
nearly all Of her choice potted and
garden plants. One plant alone, a
lantana, was valued at $5. This was
entirely ruined
The thieves were not content with
the choice flowers alone, but they also
trampled down and destroyed those
which they did not want.
1t is supposed that the party entered
the yard for the purpose of getting a
drink of water and saw the flowers,
which were close by the hydrant.
Mrs. Miller has a detective at work
and it is expected that arrests will
follow

BRAVE old
FARMER DEAD
Man who Was Tortured
by Burglars in June.
Edward Moore Succumbed
on Saturday Evening to
Apoplexy at His Home in
Fairmount Township.

The brutal attack made by burg glars
on old Edward Moore and his wife, on
June II, a complete account of which
was published in the Tribune at that
time, has ended in the death of the old
man. He never fully recovered from
the shock, and apoplexy took his life on
Saturday evening.
The deceased lived in Fairmount
township, twelve miles from Shick-
shinny. He was in comfortable circum-
stances and owned large tracts of land
in the township, where he was born and
raised Deceased leaves his wife, one
son and one daughter. He will be
buried tomorrow in the Methodist ceme-
terry in Paramount township.
Readers of this paper will remember
that on June1 four burglars broke into
his house and cruelty treated Mr.. Moore
and his wife in the hope that they would
tell where their money was. The bur-
glars secured about $50.
neighbor girl who heard the racket
down stairs, crawled out of window,
made her way on tree to the ground
and ran in her night dress three-quar-
ters of mile to the nearest houses and
aroused several men, who met the bur-
glars in the road and fusilade fol-
lowed, one of the burglars being wound
ed.
The affair created intense excitement
all over the county and the houses of
the gang suspected were watched for
days until the county detective took
hold of the case. No arrangements
have, however, yet been made.

OFF THE TRACK.



The last of the five big air-motors
which were sent into No. colliery, at
Jeddo, to take the place of mules in
hauling coal, went off the track Friday
morning on curve near the bottom of
the main slope.
The motor was running at high rate
of speed at the time and when it left the
rails it crashed into set of heavy tim
Der which was holding up quantity of
loose coal. This fell, and the eighteen
loaded cars which the motor was draw
ing rushed onward and added their con-
tents and parts of themselves to the
mass.
The wreck took place at a point
which blockaded all traffic and the
colliery was forced to suspend for the
day. The motor was badly damaged
and about half dozen cars were des-
troyed. Men worked until late Friday
night clearing away the debris and
erecting new timber.
Engineer Hawk, of Foundryvile, es-
capped with slight injuries, although he
was buried with the motor. The men
who helped to extricate him were sur
prised to find him alive.
The accident is said to have been due
to a misplaced switch near the curve.

Visitors OutpIaYed.

The Lansford-J base ball contest
at the Tigers park yesterday afternoon
attracted fair-sized crowd. The ex-
hibitlon given by the visitors from Car
bon county was not up-to-date and
Jeddo easily won the game by score of
IA to 2. The game was Jeddo's from
the start, Lansford failing to score until
the eighth inning. The contest did not
arouse much enthusiasm on account of
its one-sdedness.

About o'clock in the morning, while at
work near Eckley, he attempted to
throw the reverse lever, but it was so
tight that his efforts were in vain.
He then threw his entire strength
against the lever, and the strain upon
his muscles and system was so great
that he broke down and had to be re-
moved to his home.
For awhile his condition was quite
serious, but after receiving medical as
sistance he began to recover.
