LUZERNE COUNTY WILKES BARRE. BREVITIES. A number of men and boys dally fish at the outlet of the big sewer at the foot of Market street. These fish, it would seem, are unfit for use, and. if so, it would be well for the city authorities to prevent fishing there.

church of the Heights. It had its beginning in the fact that some of the members wanted the services conducted entirely in Welsh, while the pastor, Rev. H. F. Morgan, and others think that it would be advisable to have them in English and Welsh for the benefit of the younger people.

Some of the trustees have closed the church and the pastor lias been holding services in Shaffer hall on East Market street. The opposing trustees, or some of them, have been called before the church council for explanations and this has increased the fueling. Last evening Presiding Elder Griffin and other ministers were present to make an investigation and the matter will be considered by the conference. In the meantime it is stated that the opposing trustees nnd their attorneys, Messrs. Baxter and Lenahan.

will ask for an injunction from the courts to restrain the pastor and others from using the church. THOUGHT IT HAD CONE OFF Geo. Lancaster of Porranoeton Sustains Probably Fatal Injuries. C.eorge Lancaster of Dorranceton. a miner employed the Fettebone mine, was perhaps fatally injured on Friday by a blast.

lie had prepared a charge and lighted the srpiib and after remaining away the usual time from the face of the chamber, he returned, believing the blast had gone off. But he had been in the face but a few seconds when the explosion occurred. Lancaster was struck on the head and body by large pieces of flying coal and rock and when found by some of the other men in the mine he was unconscious. The injured man was moved to his home in the company's ambulance and Dr. Pavison of Dorranceton was called.

Mr. Lancaster's injuries were found to be of so serious a character that his chances of recovery are slight. There are some very deep and ugly gashes on his head. Mr. Lancaster is about years of age and he has a wife and four adult children.

WYOMING COUNTY NEWS An Apology for an Interruption at the School Directors Convention. Death of Thomas Osterhout Local Executive Committee for Firemen's Convention Meetlnu the Creek Stories" Origin of Stained Shingles. TUXKHAXNOCK, May 13.

If there is one thing more than another that tends to make you tired, it is to have a man come in from the rural regions and assume leadership of a body of men on the floor of an assembly and then lack in tactics and generalship. Those chaps generally take it out in posing in the public print over their own names, or over the notn de plume of "Old Citizen," Tax Payer," "One Who Was There," "Veritas," or some other well known signature. The past week there has rushed into print a man from over Nicholson way. who interrupted a vote when it was being, taken, the thought coming to hint at a late moment, as he was evidently sleeping while a chance remained for a discussion of the question before the house, and because he was rightly set down upon at that time, now that he is out of the convention, he gets a gait on himself and tries to retrieve himself as a leader. There was ample opportunity for the gentleman from Nicholson to have called for a division of the house, or for the ayes and nays on the question if he were not satisfied with the ruling of the chair that the question had been carried in the affirmative.

He did not think of it then, and yet he is the assumed leader who rushes into print and characterizes the chairman as giving an "exhibition of arrogance and self conceit that was a disgrace to his position as presiding officer, and an insult, not only to the men composing the convention, but to every voter in the county." This is the opinion of a self constituted leader on the floor, who did not know enough about parliamentary practice to call for the ayes and nays, and accepted the decision of the chair as final. As to the intimation that Mr. Lewis was asleep and as to the mental effort required by Mr. Lewis to prepare the resolution. Mr.

Lewis is of age and old enough to care for himself, but in passing it might do to remark that the mental effort required by Mr. McMillian to right himself for his utter failure to materialize as a leader must have been of so exhausting a nature that sleep, balmy sleep, will not come to his eyes for some time. It is always thus. If McMillian had not rushed in some man competent to lead might have thrown himself into the breach and saved the country. Quietly, there is no question about the position taken by the chair in deciding that McMillian was out of order, to be heard on the question when one half or the affirmative vote had been taken.

And that is all there is of the controversy. There is no "arrogance and self conceit" in the posing, now, of the gentleman from Nicholson. He is just kicking himself because he made an exposition of his ignorance and his apology for making an ass of himself is on a par with his efforts in the convention. Dr. C.

L. Boston, a school director of Northmoreland township, was in the school directors' convention, and this week has a good word to say in passing as to the work of the convention and as to the candidates who yere unsuccessful. There is a contrast between his' letter and the effusion of M. L. McMillian, of Nicholson.

He says that he could not conscienciously vote for a candidate for the superintendent of the common schools simply because he was a Republican, or a Democrat, or a Populists. He speaks of. the great work being done by Professor David Wiant as an educator, and says, "he is simply a great teacher." and Mr. Wiant was one of the defeated candidates. Dr.

C. L. Boston is a school director all of the year round. The death of Thomas Osterhout occurred at his home on Church street on Friday night. He had been ill since last fall with lung and throat trouble, and it was a foregone conclusion that he would never get about again from the start.

UP THE CREEK STORIES, llicy were telling "yarns" there in the shoe shop at Taylor's Huddle, up on the Towanda creek, one rainy afternoon, and Uncle 'Lanson had finished up a harrowing tale of blood and thunder, fright and sweat and shingling, when Uncle Oliver Baxter struck out on an experience he had in shingling. He said that he was engaged in shingling his big barn and got to work early on a foggy morning.

The fog was so thick that you could cut it with a jack knife. He commenced just where he had quit the night before, and though he could not soe the boys carrying shingles, he felt tolerably sure of his shingling, and he shingled on. It struck him that, taken with the amount of space he covered the day before he was shingling pretty far out to the north, and he tried to penetrate the fog and locate how far he hatf to go to get to the end. but the fog was dense and he just shingled on. In due time the sun began to show up hazy like and then his sight was not so obscured but that he discovered that he had been shingling out on the thick fog and had gotten at least 10 feet out beyond the barn.

Then was when he was in a sweat. It was a question of crawling back before the sun drove the fog from under the HI foot of roof out in the air and he crawled cautiously and just sweat, but he made it and the sweat that ran from him stain the shingles to this day, and from that came the use of stained shingles. You see the section of shingle swung down and covered 10 feet on the side of the barn and the stained shingles was the attraction of all that neighborhood. "Jaisey" Kenyon looked up in time to hold the crowd and remarked that as an indicator as to how that abomination, stained shingles came into existence the story just told might find excuse, but as a shingle and sweat story it was not in the class of one he had occur to him. He said that when lie was a young man he was engaged in carrying shingles for five men to shingle a large roof on a large barn.

He said that in fact because of his carrying proclivities he was on call from all that region. One time, the time in question, he met with the accident that made him notable. He was going up a ladder with two bunches of 5K) shingles each, one under each arm, and just as his head reached even with the eaves of the barn the ladder broke and smashed beyond all repair. But he had presence of mind to grab the eaves with his teeth and hold fast while he hollered to the boys to get another ladder, and they went and got one and relieved him. If it hadn't been for a chew of tobacco one of the boys threw up to him and he chewed on vigorously he believed tha the would have succumbed.

Just then inquiry was made how far the boys had to go to get the ladder, and "Jarsey" respond ed that there was none at hand and they had to go into the woods and cut the sticks and make one. and it was while they were gone that he sweat. There was a gallon kettle setting down under him and he sweat it full. And once more the dinner horn sounded and the session adjourned. FactoryvIIie.

AN UNKNOWN CITY. flTiat does the average New Yorker know about the city of New York? During the last year or two the writer has listened to some honest confessions from old New Yorkers who throw an interesting light on this question. One man who has done business in the metropolis for twenty live years acknowledged that, except to pass through to one of the Long Island ferries, he hud never set foot in that part of New York east of Third avenue. "I have seen the Brooklyn bridge," he continued, "but have never been on it; and though I have passed the city hall an uncounted number of times I have never entered it. I have beard of Eleventh, Twelfth and Thirteenth avenues, but I have never been in them, and have only the vaguest idea of their character.

It so happens that I have lived in the same house ever since 1 came to New York, and my personal knowledge of the city is confined to what 1 hate seen of it in going to and from my business office, to places of amusement and attending to such social duties as I have had time for, which have not been many. Yes, I suppose this confessiou is not creditable to me, but it is a fact which 1 can only excuse by pleading want of time." Another man of mature years, who was born and brought up in New York, and whose reminiscences of old New York are uncommonly interesting, frankly confessed that the city has almost entirely grown out of his personal knowledge. "I read about the different localities of the city in the papers," he said, "just as I read of the Strand or Vuitecuaprl in London, but I know little more about them personally. If I were to visit certain regions of the city I would feel as much a stranger as though I were in San Francisco or St. Louis.

"I have a most vivid recollection of Henry street as it was when I lived in it as a boy, but I know nothing about it now. The city has become too vast for any ono person to know all about all of it. I go to my club occasionally, and to my thurch regularly it is as oil fashioned as I am and visit a few old friends in order to talk over the old times. Tli3 New York of today is doubtless much finer than the New York of my early manhood, but it can never be so interesting toan old fellow like me, and I am quite content to take it at second hand through the newspapers." UNFAMILIAR STREETS. Two old New Yorkers who were recently chatting together drifted into a discussion of civic pride in New York.

One of them, whose identity may be concealed by calling him Green, maintained that there is no such thing as civic pride in New York, while the ot her, who may be called Brown, declared that there is. "See here," said Green, nfter it became evident that each man was becoming niore set in his view, "we will put this question to a practical test. You are a New Yorker and the son and grandson of a New Yorker. You have lived here all your life; no one lias had better opportunities of knowing the city than you, and yet I will venture to say that there are hundreds of important streets and avenues in New York today whose names you have never heard of and of the location of which you know absolutely nothing." "Oh, come now," said Brown, "that is a pretty tall assertion to make about a man who prides himself on his knowledge of New York." "It is true all the same," retorted Green. "You may know the New York of twenty five years ago pretty well, but like thousands of other New Yorkers you don't know the New York of today.

What could you tell me, for instance, about the following avenues: Locust, Walnut, Oak, Willow, Cypress, Concord, St. Ann, Brook, Willis, Melrose, Courtland, Walton, Anderson, Cromwell, Sheridan, Sherman, Grant, Webster, Clay, Boscobel, Foote, Coster, Wenman, Lydig, Post, Oostdorp, Vireo, OlofT, Kepplar, Kipp, Iroquois, Intervale, Uoueywell, Arthur or Briggs? "Did you ever hear of street, or street, or street, or Clover street, or Faile street, or Glencoe street, or Sacrahong street, or Guttenberg street, or Barretto street? What would you think if a friend asked you to call on him in Gentian place, or Extra place, or Cross plnce, or German place, or Arcularius place? Or if you read in a novel of New York life about events that happened in Gun Hill road, or Feather Bed latie, or Depot square, or Hargous crescent Wouldn't you at once jump on the author as an ignoramus who knew nothing about New York? Of course you would." EARLY IDEAS. "I must say you have me," said Brown, "bnt of course these are merely paper streets." "Of course nothing of the kind," retorted Green. "They and scores of others I could name are bonafide inhabited streets in the upper part of the city, and most of them, before many years, will be among the most important streets in the city. The fact is, you are lamentably ignorant about New York; but then, if you were otherwise, you would not be a genuine New Yorker.

Our fathers and grandfathers and our great grandfathers were just the same way, con tent to know a few streets and localities, and obstinately blind to the wonderful expansion of the city that was going on un der their very eyes. "See how the fathers built St. Paul's chapel, with its rear on Broadway, under the impression that the heart of the city was going to be where Washington market is; and read in the records how angry they got when some audacious prophet declared that the city would ultimately extend above Canal street, or Fourteenth street, or Twenty third street, or Fifty ninth street. New York to most New Yorkers is simply the few blocks he is acquainted with. The rest of the city has no more personal interest for him than Chicago or Tiinbuctoo "New York Tribune, Discovered by a Woman.
