At Sunbury Thursday morning the Muncy
Hills terror, William Hoagland, came into
court and plead guilty to breaking Jail, The
court remarked to the prisoner that lit seems
the Northumberland county prison is not
strong enough to keep everybody there, so
we have concluded to send you to the peni-
tentiary to serve out the balance ofyour term,
and also the term which we intend to sem
tence you for breaking jail" 1t will be re-
membered that Hoagand was convicted of
three burglares in the upper end, for which
he was sentenced to twelve years. The court
has now added three years and six calendar
months to his sentence, giving him fifteen
years and six months IN all to reflect over
past sins. He is the handsomest criminal
Northumberland county has ever been cursed
with, and sleek of tongue, After sentence
he quietly returned to his chair, saying as he
did so, "Thank you"

The NIinln Case.

Hiram Eckrote of Miflinyilc was indicted
by the grand jury last week, charging him
with an attempt to burn the store of Snyder
& Eckrotc, of which firm hc is II member
The trial began on Thurs lay and lasted un-
til Monday night, when it terminated by an
agreement on both sides that the verdict
should be not guilty, but the defendant TO
pay the costs. A large number of witnesses
were in attendance and the trial excited
great interest. It was simply case Of sus-
picion, as no evidence was produced by the
prosecution to show any motive on the part
of Mr.. Eckrotc. On the contrary the facts
were in his favor. The firm was doing n
fully insured, the building was not insured
to its full value they had no debts to speak
Of and there was nothing to he gained by II
fire, and good deal to he lost 1t was
shown by the defence that Eckrotc was in
| bed when the fire broke out. Under these
circumstances verdict of acquittal was the
only probable result of the trial, if it had not
| been by agreement. There were still Il
number of witnesses to be examined, and the
costs of each day that the trial was prolonged
were very heavy. Feeling certain of acquit-
ALL but fearing lest the jury might put the
| costs on him in the end, Mr.. Eckrote con.
sentcd to pay them, rather than run the
chance of their being several hundred dol.
| lars larger. Those who heard the testimony
can have no doubt of his innocence, and thC
| District Attorney stated in open court, that
under the evidence he could not ask for Il
conviction. 1t was too much foolish talk, on
the part of the defendant that caused sus
| nirion

From tcntrpiin.

Quite number of our citizens attended
court, as jurors and witnesses last week.
Rev. L. +. Field has returned from his
trip much improved in health.
Mr. Ryan of Burlington n. j. and
Miss. Ellen McNulty of this place were mar
ricd recently at the Catholic Church by Rev,
+. +. Field
Mr., Joe Millington, our obliging new
druggist is doing good business. Joe has
evidently come to stay.
The Continental collicry is idle on account
of being drowned out by the rain on Mon.
day.
Although our young ladies have been dis
appointed several times in II sleigh ride. they
are now raising party for the purpose OF
expressing their gratitude to those young
men who made every possible effort to have
one. No doubt jim, Tom and Dan will be
invited.
Mr.. W. IL. james who has been in New
Mexico for some time, has returned and in
tends moving his family there.
The election Is only one week distant, Du'
as yet we have not heard who will be the
candidates for the several offices in our bor-
ough; but such is not the case in Conyngham,
ever renowned for her exciting political cam.
paigns where there is no lack of candidates
and each one seems fully convinced that he
is the incoming man. As there can only be
u certain number elected, the remainder will
realize that, ''Of all sad words of politician
or pen the saddest are these, I'm whipped
again"
The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1882-02-17

we come TO the common sense conclusion
that lost things should be kept where the
owner will be best able to find them; but
that where after reasonable time no owner
turns up they belong to the original finder
V. Is the finder entitled to be paid for his
trouble and cXpengc? lie need not take
charge of it, AMI it seems that if hc does do
so he must look only to the gratitud. and
good feeling of the owner for reward In a
Pennsylvania case the plaintiffs lumber
iloatcd down stream and lodged on the de-
PENDANTS island. The defendant drew it up
into Il safe place and took good care of it.
Ii was held that he could not keep IT from
the owner till the expenses were paid, but
whether he could recover II compensation by
bringing suit was considered doubtful. If,
however, the finder was discharging a pub
lie duty as well, no doubt he would be en-
titled to full compensation. After the above
case was decided our legislature enacted, in
the case of lumber floating down various
navigablc rivers, the finder who drew it
ashore an kept it safe should be repaid by
the owner.
VI. What if "A reward be offered? There
is no doubt that any one who, seeing the
offer, sets to work to find the property will
if he succeeds, be entitled to the reward,
and may even retain the property till it he
paid. But if he already has the missing ar
ticlc in his possession when the reward is
offered, and especially If, knowing the
owner hc has withheld the property in the
expectation that such reward would be
offered. the rule is different. In such case
the reward is pure graluity, and binding
only in the court of conscience.
One practical suggestion which may be
drawn from the cases is the importance Of
so labelling things which are carried about
that no one but thief will keep them. The
name and address of the owner, marked
upon pocket book or engraved on the case
of a watch, serves double purpose. 1t en-
abcs honest finders to restore the lost prop
erty without trouble or delay, and to the
'!indilIcrcnt honest it gives II cogent hint to
beware Of the criminal law.

\ recent dispatch from Washington says;
Many complaints reach the Post. Office De
partment from the smaller post offices of lack
of facilities for the transaction of postal bus
mess Under the present regulation, made
necessary by the smallness of the appropria-
ton for the purpose, the gross receipts of an
Office must exceed sevcnty-tvc dollars per
annum before it is entitled to Il letter balance
and canceling apparatus. Many of the post
masters not being able to buy the necessary
outfit use inferior ink for cancellation, and
crude apparatus, or none at all, for weighing
thereby causing loss to the department and
themselves, as they are compelled under the
law to make good any deficiency in postage
on matter sent from their offices. The short
age from this cause alone was over two hun
dred dollars for last month and this class of
postmasters are unjustly liable for that
amount.

The Willamsport SIN & Banner says that
the Office of constable is not recognized as it
should be by the public, An efficient man in
this position finds occasion every day to eXer-
else himselfin behalf of good order and govern
ment. Ifhe is true friend of law and order the
evil disposed are kept in check and restrained
from committing deeds that they otherwise
would commit The citizens therefore, in
voting for constables, should favor those
who are terror to evil docrs, and seek no
favors from class who disregard the law.
There are men who seek the vote of the VIC
ious and depraved, with the understanding
that they will shield them if possible in case
of trouble. Do not vote for men of this
character, hut rather for those who will dis
charge their duty regardless of fear and
favor.
