He rallied for a time and was enabled to perform Joornalistio but bis illness bad produced tbe seeds of consumption In his system and bis decline was rapid.

In February be' was compelled to abandon the profession in which be took so much Interest. He wasoonfined to his bed the greater part of tbe time, but In the hours that his sufferings were not-intense he wrote articles for; the ifetcs-Deaer, with, which he had been connected since II was .4. bad hopes of his recovery and greeted friends who tisited him in the most cheerful manner. Last week his malady took firm hold of bim and be wenr to bis bed never to leave it again On dsy It was seen that dissolution was fast' ap proachlng. It was.

About two hours before be died he said that if he could hold-out for two days he would rally and again resume the battle of life. When It became: evident: that the sands of existence were fast ebbing away, he remarked: 'I die no coward, but in the firm faith of one Almighty and Supreme God." About 6 o'clock be called his family and relatives to the bedside and said: "Good night all; I am going to Mr. Freeman was born in Fonda, Montgomery county, N.

A short time afterward be established the Pittston Comet, a weekly, which he made a bright and sparkling paper and It attained a large and wide "circulation. A few months after the Cornel appeared another weekly called I tbe Wyoming Valley Journal was started In Pittston, but it was not long-lived and the establishment was purchased by Mr. Freeman. His prosperity was marvelous, but be met with determined opposition. Finally bis opponents got control of the paper and he was compelled to come to this city.

He was given an" editorial position upon the Sunday Plain-Dealer. When the paper was merged into the Sunday Newt-Dealer be 1 remained upon the stafi. He performed the greater portion of the reportorial work for several years, being a proliflo writer. He also did a great deal of reporting for the leading dailies of the east and west, but was best known as. a correspondent of the New York i When Mr.

Freeman was about 17 years of age he enlistad in the Union army and served during the last year of tbe rebellion. He was honorably discharged and had made application for admission to the "Grand Army of the Republic, but his sickness made it Impossible for him to join the organization. i He leaves a wife and a son, the latter just old enough to realize his father's loss.

Ooinplaints having been made that landlords owning houses in parts of the city 00 cupied by respectable people are about to sent the structures to persons who intend to use them for disreputable purposes, the Mayor will enforce the section of the city ordinance covering the often ce. The landlords will be notified to come before bim and the section, which Is as follows, will be read to them 1 That the owner or agent of any premises who shall occupy, rent or allow the same to be used for purposes of assignation or prostitution, shall, upon conviction, forfeit ana pay a fine of not exceeding less than ten dollars for each and every day the premises are allowed to be so used and occupied. Should tbe caution be disregarded, the Mayor will immediately cause the police officers to bring tbe offenders before bim for trial.

Prejudice of the Press OvereoaM officx of the Sbkbc a Co. Hkkald, i jamuton isiock, Bloomvillb, liXKTLKMKK: You can count me as a convert to Thomas' Eolectric When your agent came into my office to advertise your medicine, I classed It with the thousand and one nostrums hawked about tbe country and sold as cure-alls. For fifteen or twenty years I have been suffering with that terrible disease, Catarrh; had lost my sense of smell and taste, jalso my sight and bearing were fast falling. I had previously tried scores of advertised remedies, but found only temporary relief, Last fall I concluded to give: your Eclectrio Oil a trial. After using part of the first bottle I began to feel better.

80 1 kept on using it every night before retiring. I am now most happy to say 1 am nearly cured, and feel better than I have for ten. years. Some time ago I felt a pricking sensation nnder one of my thumb nails. I could not Imagine what caused It.

It felt as If a piece of needle was under tbe nail. I tied up my finger with a rag, freely saturating It with the Oil; the pain ceased and in a few days a black spot made its appearance and gradually increased until a new nail grew on. These are facts voluntarily given, even against a former prejudice concerning patent medicines. You can use this testimony as you see fit. If It will do tany good In getting suffering humanity to try your medicine, and it relieves others as it has me, they will feel thankful.

Dliley was chosen chairman pro tem 1 1 Certificate of election of Edward Mackln as Counellman-at-Large was filed and. he was admitted to bis seat. .5 Mr. Dilley said that be had seen the engineers, who informed bim that they could not make a report upon sewers before tbe first of the month. i I was then moved that tie Council proceeds to the conaideratlon'of regular business.

Mr. Kepner was granted permission to erect a building along tbe Cana above' Washington street. Mr. HoUenbacayof-ihe special- committee to ascertain the rates at which water for flushing the sewers would be provided, said the members could not make injuries of the companies until the engineers made a report, as it is now known bow much water will5 be required. People living on South Main street made application to extend tbe sewer still further from the point recently fixed upon by Council.

Mr. Parrish objected to the petition for 'the reason that it is expected that a general system of sewers will soon be constructed. Mr. Fogel said that the men owning the properties that will be benefitted favorable action upon the petition will pay? for the improvement themselves and when the comes they will make connections with tbe new was in favor of granting the appli cation. Mr.

Parrish moved that it be laid over until the report of tbe engineers Is read. 1 A vote was taken and the petition granted. 4 G. Seitsinger was granted permission to enlarge her building on Washington street. The following report was read: The Exonerating Committee, to whom was referred the application of sundry persons for exoneration of their city taxes, after a careful Investigation of raid applications, recommend the adoption of the following resolutions: Resolved, That the following persons be exonerated from the payment of their respect! re city taxes, viz: Estate of OweaLoftus.

for the year 1880. Anthony Loftns. 3d ward, 1886 and 1881 76 94 George A. Jones, 6th ward, 1876, 1877, 1878 and 1879...: Patrick Meighan, 6th ward, 1880 and Mrs. c7 7th wardl 187" 1876; 1877, 1878, 1879 and 1880 Edward Humphries, 8th ward, 1880..

David Weber, 10th ward, 1880. Electra Gallaway, 18th ward, 1880. William Smith, 14th ward. 1880...... 20 33 83 245 80 76 10 2 28 76 Amounting in the aggregate to 272 87 Rtiolved, That tbe Receiver of Taxes be instructed to make further effort to collect the city taxes levied against the following persons: John Casey, Mrs.

Casey, Mrs. Gtbbs, Bridget Mangan, Mrs. Welsh, 3d ward; Mrs. M. ward; Toole, 13th ward; Patrick Corrigan and the Patrick Thornton estate, 14th ward.

The recommendations were adopted. The following opinion from tbe City Attorney was read: To thi City Council: Thebtll presented March 7. 1882, by the county of Luzerne against the city of Wilkes-Barre, amounting to $87.50, for boarding prisoners committed by the Mayor to the county prison, cannot be paid by the city for the reason, among many others that might be given, that It does not appear that the affidavits of the prisoners were taken of their inability to support themselves. Under the act of July 16, 1842, Purdon 777, before plaintiff can be made liable to pay the board of the defendant imprisoned for debt, the defendant shall make affidavit that be Is unable to support himself. We have examined the bill in question and we are emable to find that these affidavits have been made.

There are other good and substantial grounds upon which to place the non-liability of tbe city to pay the bill In question, but they need not be stated now; it is sufficient to say that no bill can be recovered by plaintiff for board of any -defendant imprisoned for debt in the absence of the defendant's affidavit that he is unable to support himself. Respectfully submitted, William S. McLean, City Attorney. The report was acoepted and filed, and the Council ordered that the bill sent in by tbe County Commissioners be returned to them without payment. Mr.

Coolbaugh offered a resolution providing that the city lots at the corner of Market and Washington streets be divided into plots of twenty feet front and leased for ten years; tbe lessees to erect brick buildings not less than two stories high, with substantial stone foundations, the structures to revert to the city at the expiration of tbe terms no liquor to be sold upon the premises. On motion of Mr. Fogel the matter was re ferred to the Public Property Committee for a detailed report. The Property Committee was authorized to repair tbe roof of the Cinderella street engine house. The Street Committee, to whom was referred the application of the Wilkes-Barre Electrio Light and Power Co submitted tbe following draft of ordinance entitled Special Ordinano granting certain privileges to the Wi'kes-Barre Electric Light and Power Co." Be it ordained by tbe Mayor aud Council of the City of Wilkes-Barre, in City Council assembled, as follows: Section It Is hereby granted the Wilkes-Barre Electric Light and Power Co.

that the city reserves the right to grant like privileges to other corporations having the same or similar purposes in view. The matter was, on motion of Mr. Bailey, re ferred to the Law and Ordinance Committee. A warrant for $9.96 was ordered to be drawn In favor of W. T.

Bboads for time-lost by sickness. The matter of exonerating Mrs. George A. Zelgler from city taxes was referred to the proper committee and Council adjourned. WyosatsMr Tbe directors of the Wyoming Athene am met at the office of Hon.
