Members anil friends of Pittston Castle, No. 77. Knights of the Golden Eagle, were out in iurge numbers last evening to, attend the anniversary celebration of the castle, which was held in the regular meeting hall, on South Main street. Pittston Castle has had a very prosperous career, and is at present in a very nourishing condition, having a large membership and being in sound financial condition. The early part of the evening was occupied with an entertainment. Past Chief George Stanaback was in the chair and kept the programme moving lively. The following took part in the . entertainment: Opening song, Leo Test, the ItaHan, who was shot in the head by John , Colinde last Tuesday and given a slight scalp scalp wound, was about the streets this morning, having about recovered from his wound and f(ight. Test is under bonds for stabbing a fellow countryman and his cas ■ will be ht-ard by the next grand jurjr. The poHce say they have a strong case against him. Test said this morning that he didn't Intend to have Colinde arrested for shooting him and that he wasn't angry at him for trying to take his life. He made this "turn the other cheek" statement to several of his friends and Intimated that as far as he was concerned Colinde could return to his home without any fear of arrest. It happens, however, that Colindc's arrest croesnt hinge on Test's volition. The police are looking for him and intend to prosecute him when he Is caught. . Colinde four years ago shot another man on North Main street, and an endeavor will be made to Impress upon him that it Is bad practice to try at human targets on the streots of the city. Anna, the two-year-old (laughter of Mr. and Mrs. Anthony Madden, of Main street, Sebastopol, had a narrow escape from being scalded to death this morning about 10 o'clock when .she pulled a tub of hot water on herself. The little child was playing about the kitchen and was Impelled by curiosity to try and look Into a tub of hot water that had been placed on a low bench. When no one was noticing she caught hold of the tub and pulled it over on her. The water poured over her face and upper part of her body, scalding her severely. At lirsl it was thought the scalds were fatal, but it is thought now that the child will recover. The water had cooled just a trifle before ft spilled over her and this Is what saved her life. She Is being attended by Dr. Underwood. FEAR RELIGIOUS WAR. RECEIVING REBATES. COVERS COAL AND OIL ANTHRACITE DELAY. Premier Was Voted Down on Church Separation.

New York. March H.—Coal circle* evidence a feeling of great uneasiness today because of the attitude of several of the bituminous operators In the middle west in declaring their Intention of facing a great strike rather than grant the demands of the miners.

March 8.—Stanley W. Little, esq., aged 64 years, a member of the Bradford county bar and widely known throughout this section of the state by reason of his prominence in the legal profession and in politics, committed suicide this morning at 6 o'clock, at his residence here, by shooting himself through the mouth with a revolver. Death resulted instantly. It is believed that Mr. Little was mentally deranged when he committed the deed. He had been in ill health for several weeks and was suffering from melancholia. He returned home yesterday from a visit to his daughter, in Camden, X. J. The deceased was born in Leraysville, this county. Besides being a member of the bar he was Interested in various . Bradford canDty 'jUhIik jh; eHferprlses. He Is survived by his wife, one son and one daughter—Stanley J. Little, of this place, and Mrs. G. E. Woodruff, of Camden. X. .1. Mrs. Little is a sister of S. Judson Stark, of Wtest Pittston. The late Judge Little, of Bloomsburg, was a cousin of tile deceased. A sensation was created in Honesdale this morning, when members of the Federal Secret Service department caused the arrest of Julius Moll, a well known merchant tailor of that town, who had a reputation for reliability and uprightness, gained by a long residence in the town and by a successful business career. Moll Is charged with violating the postotfice laws by sending threatening letters through the mails. It seems that for some time past "Black Hand" letters have been sent to certain residents of Honesdale. One of these letters was received last Monday by Samuel Katz, a prominent resident of Honesdale. It demanded that he hand over $1,000 or suffer the penalty of having his house ruined with dvnamite. Mr. Katy. at once put the ease in the hands of the postotfice authorities, who, in turn, placed Secret Service men on the case. As a result of their stantaneous, ntent's course, asserting that it threat "The evidence as submitted bares one of the most astounding mazes ot' gross favoritism, flagrant rebate and vicious partiality that has ever been unearthed.

Premier Kouvier asked the adoption of a resolution approving the ITALIANS BANQUET IN CITY TONIGHT course of thC' government It looks as if the anthracite operators are going to take as long to consider the demands of the miners as the miners took In framing them. President Wilcox, of the Delaware & Hudson Co.. one of the sub-committee of the operators appointed to go over the statistics of the operators as to the actual relation between the profits and, the wages in the anthracite district said today that the subcommittee had not yet appointed a date to meet. time, The resolution was put to a vote and defeated. The result was due to a combination of opposition influences. The vote was more expressive of personal antagonism to the ministry than of opposition to church inventories.

The club, led by the band, went to Seranton last evening and participated in a banquet there. lu the lobbies of the chamber of deputies the .Moroccan question became the subject of lively discussion.

Members anil friends of Pittston Castle, No. 77. Knights of the Golden Eagle, were out in iurge numbers last evening to, attend the anniversary celebration of the castle, which was held in the regular meeting hall, on South Main street. Pittston Castle has had a very prosperous career, and is at present in a very nourishing condition, having a large membership and being in sound financial condition. The early part of the evening was occupied with an entertainment. Past Chief George Stanaback was in the chair and kept the programme moving lively. The following took part in the . entertainment: Opening song, Leo Test, the ItaHan, who was shot in the head by John , Colinde last Tuesday and given a slight scalp scalp wound, was about the streets this morning, having about recovered from his wound and f(ight. Test is under bonds for stabbing a fellow countryman and his cas ■ will be ht-ard by the next grand jurjr. The poHce say they have a strong case against him. Test said this morning that he didn't Intend to have Colinde arrested for shooting him and that he wasn't angry at him for trying to take his life. He made this "turn the other cheek" statement to several of his friends and Intimated that as far as he was concerned Colinde could return to his home without any fear of arrest. It happens, however, that Colindc's arrest croesnt hinge on Test's volition. The police are looking for him and intend to prosecute him when he Is caught. . Colinde four years ago shot another man on North Main street, and an endeavor will be made to Impress upon him that it Is bad practice to try at human targets on the streots of the city. Anna, the two-year-old (laughter of Mr. and Mrs. Anthony Madden, of Main street, Sebastopol, had a narrow escape from being scalded to death this morning about 10 o'clock when .she pulled a tub of hot water on herself. The little child was playing about the kitchen and was Impelled by curiosity to try and look Into a tub of hot water that had been placed on a low bench. When no one was noticing she caught hold of the tub and pulled it over on her. The water poured over her face and upper part of her body, scalding her severely. At lirsl it was thought the scalds were fatal, but it is thought now that the child will recover. The water had cooled just a trifle before ft spilled over her and this Is what saved her life. She Is being attended by Dr. Underwood. FEAR RELIGIOUS WAR. RECEIVING REBATES. COVERS COAL AND OIL ANTHRACITE DELAY. Premier Was Voted Down on Church Separation.

March 8.—Stanley W. Little, esq., aged 64 years, a member of the Bradford county bar and widely known throughout this section of the state by reason of his prominence in the legal profession and in politics, committed suicide this morning at 6 o'clock, at his residence here, by shooting himself through the mouth with a revolver. Death resulted instantly. It is believed that Mr. Little was mentally deranged when he committed the deed. He had been in ill health for several weeks and was suffering from melancholia. He returned home yesterday from a visit to his daughter, in Camden, X. J. The deceased was born in Leraysville, this county. Besides being a member of the bar he was Interested in various .

Mrs. Little is a sister of S. Judson Stark, of Wtest Pittston. The late Judge Little, of Bloomsburg, was a cousin of tile deceased. A sensation was created in Honesdale this morning, when members of the Federal Secret Service department caused the arrest of Julius Moll, a well known merchant tailor of that town, who had a reputation for reliability and uprightness, gained by a long residence in the town and by a successful business career. Moll Is charged with violating the postotfice laws by sending threatening letters through the mails. It seems that for some time past "Black Hand" letters have been sent to certain residents of Honesdale. One of these letters was received last Monday by Samuel Katz, a prominent resident of Honesdale. It demanded that he hand over $1,000 or suffer the penalty of having his house ruined with dvnamite. Mr. Katy. at once put the ease in the hands of the postotfice authorities, who, in turn, placed Secret Service men on the case. As a result of their stantaneous, ntent's course, asserting that it threat "The evidence as submitted bares one of the most astounding mazes ot' gross favoritism, flagrant rebate and vicious partiality that has ever been unearthed.

The result was due to a combination of opposition influences. The vote was more expressive of personal antagonism to the ministry than of opposition to church inventories.

The club, led by the band, went to Seranton last evening and participated in a banquet there. lu the lobbies of the chamber of deputies the .Moroccan question became the subject of lively discussion.
