To ouench Fire Fifty. Years Old.

The Lehigh Coal and Navigation Com

extinguish the fire which, has been raging
in the old Greenwood mine, north of Ia

The cOmpany's plan is to drill into the
burning portions of the mine at different
points, pump water from the Schuylkill
River. mix it with culm and run it into
the mine. 1t will then be possible to
work three of the richest and largest
veins in the region.

Peculiar Damage Snit.

A remarkable damage case is on
trial in the circuit court before
Judge Vinje at Ashland, in which
August Jazdewski is suing the
Barker s. Stewart Company for
S25, 600 damages for injuries received
last year. Jazdewski was feeding
the edger last July when one Of the
boards rebounded with terrific force
and struck him in the chest. The
force of the blow split the board in
two parts and both penetrated bis
body coming out at his back ard
extending several feet behind him.
The board was sawed off on each
side of his body, and he was taken
to Dodd's hospital.
He partially recovered and is now
able to be around, but is very weak,
and his wounds have not entirely
healed.
He brought suit to recover
$25, 900 and the case was sworn
away from Judge Parish on the
grounds of prejudice.

The delinquent tax sale was attend

day to dispose of all the descriptions
advertised in his list. There were
about $500 descriptions on the list
when the sale took place, and of this
number about 1000 descrip tions
were sold. The tax sale was perhaps
larger than last year, though there
was not the spirited competition in
bidding. Among the heaviest bid

May Increase Life of Laundering

The burning of the Scofield sd W
mill at West Superior may have a
meterial effect upon the lite of the
Edward Hines Lumber Company's
saving in this city. There is
grave doubt as to whether the SEQ
field mill will be rebuilt, a nd in that
even t the timber which was to have
been taken to West Superior will
very likely be brought to this city
to be sawed. A gentleman familiar
with the situation informed THE
TIMES within the past week that the
burning OF the Scofield mill might
meaa two or three years extra saw
ing for the mill in this city.

day when games were played in
which the amateur teams participant

dictate that the interest was about
up to the standard of former years
when professional ball tossers won
laurels for Washburn. Saturday
afternoon the Washburn High
School team crossed bats with the
Bayfield, High School team on the
grounds in this city. 1t was warm
game from start to finish, with plen-
ty of interesting features, resulting
in victory for Washburn by a
score of nine to six. Sunday the
base ball enthusiasts again gathered
and witnessed a game of ball be-
tween the Washburn Athletics and
the Bayfield, team, the score result
ing 13 to 5. Both games were said
to be exceptionally strong ones, and
those who attended them expressed
the belief that the amateurs who are
now playing ball can make things
quite as interesting as some of the
more expert players The High
School team have made good record
already this season, while the Ath-
Ietics give evidence Of being able to
