Barn with Five Horses and a Lot of Pigs Destroyed.

Adam Fraley's large barn on the old river road, between the slaughter houses and Carey avenue, was totally destroyed by fire at 4:45 o'clock Saturday morning, together with large etook of grain and provisions, five horses and several hogs. The cows were the only things rescued from the flames. The firemen, except the Hook and Ladder company were of no use as there was no water there. This company kept the fire from spreading. The total loss will run up into thousands.

It Is not known whether or not there Is any insurance to cover the loss. The fire was a large one and made a large surrounding area brilliant with its light. Two men were seen running from the barn shortly after the fire was discovered. This locality has always been a favorite resort of tramps and it is thought the fire was started by incendiaries.

The following little domestic story, told by the News-Dealer, was supposed to be a pure romance, but upon investigation it seems to be quite true, and the neighbors won't be out of a topic for talk for a whole week. This is the story: Last Tuesday afternoon Peter Frontz, a miner, who lived in report WilkesBarre, and whose wife boarding house, was badly injured in the mine. He died the same night, and his wife and three children the next day appeared in mourning.

They received the sympathy of the neighbors and the sympathy of John Streng, one of the boarders, was quite noticeable. Friday afternoon the funeral took place. The widow, the children, John Streng and several neighbors following the remains to the grave. Thursday night the mother and John Streng told the children they were go- Terms Strictly Cash During this Sale. Great Alteration Sale!

J. SCOTT INGLIS Carpets and Wall Papers, 419 LACAWANNA AVENUE. AMERIGO ROUNDER. THE CAUSES AND EFFECTS OF THE HULLABALOO. How Hullabaloos are Made -The tocraticity of the Hullabaloo.

Hopeful View of the Situation. Hullabaloos Often Imaginary-Are We to Have a Board of Trade Hullabaloo? Hullabaloo! Hullabaloo? Dont know what a hullabaloo Well, we ought to. We have one here most of the time. it Remember the house affair? That was a hullabaloo. fact, several hullabaloos.

A hullabaloo is a spasmodic tantrum. Wilkes-Barre is the habitat of the hullabaloo. ParTS subject to community spasms. They spring up in a night. They are usually newspaper begotten.

An editor is seized with a quirk. It comes about this way. Topics for editorials seem scarce. The editor starts his mind on a plunge. He has skimmed the editorial horizon.

He finds nothing startling there. Must have something. It must be fresh. Something to set people talking. Then the editor takes a near-by look.

Bites his pen-holder a minute. Startles himself with an idea. It blew into his mind while biting his holder. It's a hullabaloo story. Nothing like a local ruction to stir the multitude.

Here goes! May be, a new court house. May be, an official scandal. May be, a glass of water a little off color. May be, an Imaginary mayor and to council clash. May be, a careless exIt pression of an official.

May be, a town clean-up. May be, a sidewalk scrapeup. Anything will do. Any trifle will make a hullabalooo. If it's only worked up right.

Practice makes perfect. Our editors are at home on hullabaloos. They've elaborated scores of them. It sometimes takes only a squib. Out it goes! Every breakfast table seizes the squib.

It primes a thousand gossips in an hour. By noon there's a hullabaloo. The whole town's agog. Sides are taken. Everybody's stirred up.

Hullabaloo! There's one redeeming feature of the hullabaloo! It doesn't last forever. In fact, it is a short-lived affair. If it were not, there'd be bedlam. They don't overlap, either. One is usually gone before another comes.

Each hullabaloo assassinates its predecessor. Provided the predecessor hasn't died a natural death. Which is usually the case. A hullabaloo is peculiar in this way. It insists upon being sole ruler.

Its reign is short but supreme, autocratic. It dominates the entire community. There are few interregna, mowever. It's an odd week that doesn't bring a hullabaloo. Sometimes a little one.

Then again, a stunner. But they are not half so formidable as they seem. Theyare very blustery. You'd think they were going to disrupt the social fabric. But there's a heap of ilapdoodle about a hullabaloo.

It's bark is furious. It's bite innocuous. It has no fangs to speak of. It's much like a pug dog. One of those with its nose-bridge all smashed in.

An snarly physiognomy. But all deception. So we get to be indifferent to hullabaloo demonstrations. They don't scare as they used to. They are sometimes a little extravagant, however.

Our court house hullabaloo, for instance. That was a twenty thousand dollar affair. The rest are comparatively cheap. That is, for the public purse The water companies may not find their's so cheap. Those of the mayor don't come high.

Paint is cheap. Officials must earn their salaries, you know. After all, hullabaloos are entertaining cusses. Hullabaloo has always prevailed here more or less. But in a sporadic form.

That is, until within a couple of years, more or less. Then it became epidemic. We had a bad run of it for a couple of years. Cases frequent and of exceedingly virulent form. But we pulled through, somehow.

And without any fatal results. Of course there were after effects. As in most epidemics. All serpents leave a trail after them. Harmless serpents as well as venomous.

And so we are as you find us to-day. Somewhat shattered and tattered and peevish. But improving all the time. Recovering virility with surprising celerity. No, not well, by any means.

But full of hope of entire recovery. Relapse? Well, there's always danger of that. In fact, we rather expect it. You see we are subject to hullabaloo spells. It's like fits.

You can't count on an epileptic. He's likely to go off any time. We're in the same fix. All right to-day. Probably safe for to-morrow.

As to next day it is decidedly problematic. So we can't forecast the future much. Especially with such a hullabaloo diathesis. Of course we are making the best of it. And we don't anticipate anything dreadful.

We have weathered a good many hullabaloo spells. This has given us confidence. Then we are learning how to treat them. We know what to take for them No, they don't scare us much any more. Like measles, whooping cough and mumps.

We've got to have them, likely. Reconciled if we have them, Happy if we escape them. Liability on the side of catching them. Still, we are hopeful that we are getting toward the end of the list. When we think backward we are encouraged.

It really looks as though we'd had all the hullabaloos. But there is no certainty, of coures. New phases of hullabaloo are continally developing. It's astounding how many there are. It's like permutation in arithmetic.

Astonishing how many combinations there are. Ever juggle with just four figures? To see into how many forms you can arrange them? Surprise you, if you haven't. Just so with hullabaloo. The combinations are well nigh infinite. Discouraging? That's just how you take it.

Fear of hullabaloo is about as bad as the pest itself. You can make a pain almost anywhere by thinking of it. In church, for instance. queer sensation in the middle of your back. Anywhere except in church you wouldn't think of it.

You'd give it a little rub and end it. But you get to thinking about that sensation there. You can't rub your back in church. This impossibility grows on you. You think what you'd better do about it.

Thinking intensifies the queer feeling. Pretty soon it becomes an actual pain. You'd give a' dollar if the man behind you would punch you. He can't. He doesn't know.

He couldn't if he did. You squirm a little. As far as propriety in church will allow. This concentrates thought on the spot in vour back. It emphasizes the thing Into an actual pain.

You feel that it's getting worse fast. What if-? Oh, horrors! You are almost sick when the benediction comes. All on account of spot-thinking. You are all right by the a time you get home. Same way with hullabaloos.

It is best not to think very hard on a hullabaloo. Not until it comes, anyway. And not then, if you can help it. Speaking of hullabaloos, there's a new one in sight. It's not very big vet.

No bigger than a man's hand. But it has the distinctive features of 3 genuine hullabaloo. It looks like a board of trade hullabaloo. It's all along of a newspaper comparison. Like all hullabaloos, a newspaper's at the bottom of it.

The Times takes a fling at our board of trade. Just because it isn't pushy and snappy. It cites a few enterprises of the Scranton board. Intimates that our board isn't doing anything. I think I referred to this matter before.

The Wilkes-Barre and Scranton boards are different. Ours is a butterfly. Their's is a bee. Ours is much the prettier. It flits and flutters and gathers from every industrial flower.

What does it do? That's what the grumbling chumps vant to l-now. Well.it gathers sweetness. for one thing. It's no bee. It isn't in the storage business.

The Scranton board's a bee board. It gathers and lays up. It's a mercenary concern. It doesn't Alt and flutter and charm. It hums and gathers and stores up for the future.

Stings? Well, it can, if it be necessary. It has no beauty to brag of. It fights for what it gets. Fought for A big, eight story hive. It's getting It.

But see how it has to toil. It has no fun. Plods right along. Awfully dull life Now our board has an entirely different purpose. It enjoys itself as it goes along.

It isn't after the main chance all the time. Don't let's compare them any more. It only makes things unpleasant. It may start that hullabaloo a growing. Board of trade hullabaloos are wanted.

Scotch this one right now. The board of trade isn't a public body. It's a select affair. It's members can play or work, as they like. It's none of the public's business.

They don't support it. doesn't cost anybody but the members anything. Quit nagging. AMERIGO ROUNDER. LUZERNE COURTS.

Anthony Zimmitz and Annie Yeisly were some time since charged with the murder of Yeisly in the Blackman mine, but were released on a habeas corpus before Judge Bennett. Saturday morning they were re-arrested on warrants issued by 'Squire Thomas and are now in the county jail to await trial in court. Chief Meyers will be prosecutor. The circumstances in the case are that some time last summer, Yeisly, a miner at the Blackman mine, was found dead in his chamber. Zimmitz, who worked in the next chamber alleges that he found Zimmitz dead.

The body was brought home and an undertaker sent for. Instructions were given to bury the man as soon as possible. was learned that Zimmitz and Mrs. Yeisly were on intimate terms. This with other circumstances led to a suspicion that the man had been foully dealt with.

This was strengthened when the undertaker, in preparing the body for burial, discovered a wound similar to that made by a pistol shot. A doctor was sent for and a further examination revealed a buliet in the man's body. Arrests were made and the suspects lodged in jail. They had a hearing in Attorney Bennett's office and the cir. cumstantial evidence then was so strong they were remanded.

Strange to say, however, the prosecutor in the case, Chief-of-Police Briggs, was not notifled to be present, nor were any of the coal company officials. Friday District Attorney Fell said there was not evidence enough to hold these people and as it was expensive to have a trial it was best release the prisoners, which was accordingly done. The bullet found in Yeisly's body is still in the possesion of Chief Briggs and it is quite likely that the case will now go to court. The reason for the discharge of this couple on habeas corpus proceedings was that two terms of court had passed since their incarceration in jail, without bringing them to trial, and under the law The they could not be held any longer. only way to bring them to justice, if they be guilty, was to discharge and then re-arrest them.

COLLISION AT SOUTH WILKESEmpty Coal Cars and Water Tanks ColHide and are Wrecked. Between midnight and 1 o'clock Saturday morning a train of empty water tanks, drawn by a Lehigh and WilkesBarre Coal company's engine, was going to Plymouth on the Central Railroad a of Jersey.

A serious wreck resulted, six of the tanks and two empty gondolas being badly smashed, besides a considerable length of both trains derailed. Fortunately nobody was hurt, although 'several of the trainmen had a very narrow escape.

The Lehigh Valley wrecking crew was called out and it was 6 o'clock Saturday morning before the tracks were cleared, all freight and coal trains meanwhile being delayed. Conductor Joyce and Engineer Bierly were in charge of the Lehigh Valley train. ORLANDO DETRICK IS DEAD. He was a Well Known Horse Car Man Under the Old Regime.

The deceased was a nephew of Miller Detrick and was well known in this city, having lived here all his life. He was employed during the last two years as motorman for 'the Traction company.

In the early days of his life he was in the livery business in this city and later he went to Philadelphia, where he was engaged in the horse dealing business. On his return to this city he took a position on the Wilkes-Barre and Kingston street car line, which he held until the company changed hands. then accepting a position with the Traction company.
