Attest OF N EuRitAfo lNonn 1uAASos s
About one and a half years ago, some
desperadoes, one night burglariously enter
ed the house of Gabriel Shinkie, an old
gentleman living in Towamensing town
ship, and forcibly took therefrom trunk or
chest containing some money, two watches,
and divers articles Of value. The burglars,
at the same time assaulted Mr.. shinkic, and
inflicted several severe wounds on his head,
he narrowly escaping with his life. A neigh
Dor named Joseph Otto and his son were
arrested on suspicion, who were tried at the
Jan'y term of Court, last year, Atthe trial,
Mr.. Shinkie swore very positive that he re-
cognized Otto and son as two Of the robbers
but the rebutting evidence was so strong in
their favor, that the jury returned verdict
of not guilty. In the meantime quite con-
elusive evidence had been unearthed by
District Attorney siewers, duplicating Al
vim II. segrriod and brother and one Ed
Christman, as the real guilty parties; but
they had made themselves scarce in these
parts. Some time since it transpired that
Christman had been arrested, tried, and con'
vcted ofa felony and lodged in Wilkes Barre
Jail. A warrant was issued by Mr.. Sewers
for the arrest of Christman as soon-as his
term of imprisonment in Luzerne county
expires. Meanwhile Constable j, S. Webb
of this borough, has been shadowing the two
Seigfrieds, who he had reasons 10 believe
were last summer working on the Erie Canal
Positive information as to how he could best
lay his hands on them did not transpire un.
til last week, when a trip to Jersey City on
| Friday was made. lie ferretted out one oI
his men, certain, Alvin II. Seigfreid, who
was engaged in retailing milk to the Erie
Canal boatmen, in that city, The Other
| brother he also ascertained was in the city
He at once applied to Chief of Police Nath-
an, made known the case, and the chief de.
tailed two officers to assist him. Alvin Seig.
| fred was at onae arrested and lodged in the
Jersey City lookup, but the brother evadcd
arrest. But now came the critical point
Constable Webb had no requlsiton from the
Governor, and the Jersey city authorite:
could only hold the prisoner for twelve hours
and it was impossible to get requisitor
from Gov. Hoyt, within that space of time
Constable Webb did not communicate with
the District Attorney, as per prcconcertet
plan, but decided upon trusting to his wits
the ignorance ofhis prisoner, and good luck
When, by order of the Justice Court, oil
Saturday morning, Seigfried was released
Constable Webb met him at the door Of th'
prison, and while the jailer explained t
him that he was discharged, he took seig
fried by the arm, marched to the depot, anc
before he discovered the difference betweel
discharge and Governors requistion
found himself comfortably lodged in Carbol
County Jail.
Since his arrest, it is said, seigfried ha
admitted his guilt, but says Christman dit
the assaulting at the time of the burglary
and he further denies getting any none,
which the stolen trunk is alleged to hav
contained.

An Old borough Debt Unoarrhed.

"A meeting of the Borough Council was
held on Monday evening al which Council
men Gabel, Kemerer, Miller, Rapsher and
Waterbor were present. An account, from
the Auditor General of the Commonwealth,
was received, claiming a State tax on loans,
for ten years past, amounting in the aggre-
gate to S3Sl.4j. There are some very fine
questions of law involved in this claim, and
the matter was placed in the hands of Hon.
VIM. NJ. Rapsher who will adjust the mat
ter with Auditor General Schell. The law,
levying tax upon borough Indebtedness or
loans, was passed by the Legislature April
80, 1864, and provides that 3-mills tax
shall be assessed, and that the tax shall be
deducted from the annual interest due the
bond-holders, thus making the holders d
borough bonds the virtual payers olthe tax.
In 1869 a special act was passed authorizing
4 Lehighton to issue bonds to the amount OF
| $1,000. And in 1871, a similar act, author
izing an additional $4,000 loan, was passed.
/ No returns Of any bonded Indebtedness was
made 70 the Auditor General from this bo-
rough auntil 1876, when Sl75,9O was re-
turned,in 1877, Sls,OsO,a and in 1878, $40, ,4sO,
Yet this present claim land the first one
made), assumes that there was a loan oi
$4,000, commencing with Dec. 1869, which
was increased to $4,000 three years after
ana at that amount remained for four sub
sequent years, when a return was made

Important TO Ladies'.

\ few days ago we had our attention di-
rected to very valuable invention, which
is worth the serious attention of every lady
who owns one of those indispensable house
hold necessities, sewing machine. The
invention referred to is Lllis' Adjustjble
Sewing Machine Treadle, which can be i'm
mediately adaped to any one ofthe different
makes of machines. The value of the in
vention consists in reducing by half the
amount of power required to operate the
machine, and confines the muscular motor
entirely to the foot and ankle joint; and
thus, 10y using alternately Arst one foot and
then the other, the operator can work
steadily all day without fatigue. 1t is a
well known and an established fact that op-
Grating the sewing machine has tendency
to produce spinal and other dstressiul NAL
aides. When lady operates machine
rapidly, with the old treadle, the movement
of the limbs becomes n succession of violent
jerks, imparting at each motion a hurtful
shock to the lower part Of the body and
! spinal column. This violent jerking of the
heavy limbs, hips and back, while in sit
ting posture, and the shocks and strains
communicated to other portions of the body
is what does the mischief. The ndjustible
treadle entirely obviates this evil, and robs
operating the machine almost entirely Of
physical labor. But, like every other good
thing, it must be seen or tested to be appre-
ciated, and we advise all our lady reader;
to call at Mr.. S. C. Whcatley's store, on
Bank street, and examine one of these
treadles attached to the Howe machine
Mr.. T. C. Baker is agent for the sale of tho
trcadle or for county rights in this portion
