JAMES OUT
OF The UNION
Executive Board Member
Tenders Resignation.
Having Cleared Himself of
Charges. He Will Leave
the Organization to En-
gage in Business.

Benjamin James, of Jeanesville, a
member OF the national executive board
Of the United Mine Workers, on Satur-
day forwarded to President John Nit
chell his resignation, to take effect July
1. The resignation includes his mem
bership in the organization as we'll as
his position on the executive board.
James has contemplated the move for
some time past, but waited until such
time as he could clear himself of the
charges resting against him, which have
been reported as being an attempt to
use the organization for political pur-
poses and attacks on members high in
the order.
He will associate himself with a
Wilkesbarre business firm and has
already prepared to take up a residence
in that city.

Last Night a Failure.

The Sawtelle Company closed its
weeks engagement at the Grand opera
house on Saturday evening, and this
morning the members departed for
Hazleton. The company is one of the
best repertoire organizations that has
played in town and all the performa aces
were pleasing to the patrons of the
house, except that of Saturday night
On the latter evening the Grand was
packed from bottom to top to see Ten
Nights in Barroom." For some reason
or another the actors, who had done so
well in a variety of pieces during the
week, were unable to do justice to the
old melodrama and made failure of the
production. The attendance was a
record breaker on the last night and the
disappointment which followed the com
pany's unsuccessful efforts to properly
produce the drama were keenly felt.

Institutes New instructor.

From the Lansford Leader.
Mrs. Coke applied to Lehigh univer-
sity for an instructor for the Mining
and Mechanical Institute at Freeland,
and the authorities have given her the
services OF c. M. Crawford, our former
assistant principal. The standard OF
the institute is to be raised and prepare
students for Lehigh. The services of
Prof. Crawford would not be given to
the institute for an indefinite time, as
Lehigh would not let him 60.
We still have recollection of a few
men in this town who thought that Prof
Crawford did not fill the bill here, but
he was so good that Lansford could not
keep him. 1t would pay the Lansford
board to get another man like Craw ford
and pay him a good salary, for hs was
and Is an excellent instructor and his
recognition as such by people who are
in position to know his merit is pleas
ing to his friends here and they are
numerous.

T0niqht's FiStic C0nte SITS.

All arrangements have boen made for
the boxing exhibitions this evening.
The members OF the Sterling Athletic
Club have gone to considerable expense
in preparing for tonight's contests, and
it is expected that their work will result
in a large attendance OF sporting people.
The first bout will be between Kid
McGuinn and Bill Young Marshall, both
of Philadelphia, who will have six
round go.
The next and last will be between
Jack Bonner, of Philadelphia, formerly
OF Summit Hill, and Scaldy Bill Quinn,
OF New Jersey. The former is favorite
with Freeland people, but tho colorod
man is not without admirers in town.
His fight against Charles Johnson here
some years ago is well remembered and
won him many friends. As the contest
is for fifteen rounds, both men will have
all the opportunity desired to show their
science and TO work for the decision.

Goose Settles a Lawsuit.

A goose decided who its owner really
was, and so settled dispute in Magis-
trate Thomas LOTUS court in Pttsion
on Saturday, Mrs. Ann Mcdonald
charged Maxwell Connors with stealing
the goose, and demanded that 1t be
returned. Connors, who appeared in
court with the bird, denied that 1t had
been stolen, and had witnesses to prove
that he had purchased the goose from a
farmer
The alderman finally decided that the
only fair way to settle the dispute was
to take the goose to the roadway near
the home Of both and be governed by
tho action OF the fowl itself Tho court
adjourned to witness the test. The
goose waddled to the plaintiffs house,
and its decision was made the ruling of
the court.

The open winter so far has been
a good thing for the farmers and
stock-raisers of this county, as most
of them did not have enough rough
feed to stand hard winter, but il
looks now like they would get
through all right, as winter is half
gone and the weather has been so
mild and open that stock could get
to the ground all the time and eat
dried grass and get along with only
about half the feed that would be
required in very cold weather and
deep snow. Some of the farmers
very foolishly sold off some Of their
young stock last fall for very low
prices, and many young calves were
almost given away and shipped out
of the county along with the sheep
that.were bought up for the Eastern
market. If the coming season is a
good one and feed plentiful, calves
and young cattle will be high again
and in good demand.

producing more cranks, both male

the Union. AT Wichita, Monday
OF this week, four married women.
members of the w. c. T.U. organ
ization armed themselves with
hatchets and started out on a tenn
perance reform crusade. They went
into two saloons and a hotel bar
and smashed up Sax worth of
plate glass, show cases, pictures.
slot machines and fine fixtures gen
orally. One of the women cut her
hand badly on the broken glass.
Then they stood on the streets and
harrangued the crowd and finally
procured a wagon and rode through
the city singing "Nearer, NV God.
10 Thee" and other hymns and
holding prayer meetings in front OF
the saloons. They were finally ar
rested and the leader, Mrs. Carrie
Nation, fought the sheriff, who ar
rested her, like wild cat. They
were all lodged in Jail and locked
up IN cells, crying "Hallelujah. )"
1t was a big spectacular advertise
ment for the saloons and they have
been crowded with people ever since.
The constant stream of curious PEG.
pie going through the wrecked sa
looms shows no abatement. Society
is no exception and it is estimated
that 1000 women have seen the in
side of saloon for the first time in
their lives.

OF these !anatical women is calcu-
lated to bring the w. G. +. u. into
