niture, for one year. and is now occupying it, is
Browns brother-in-law. The residence property
of Brown is situated on Walnut street. the
fashionable thoroughfare Of the city, and is
worth between 81, 00o and $1,000. There is no
incumbrance on this property but as it is
owned jointly by Brown and his wife, his cred
itors cannot touch it.
A lot Of school furniture Of various descrip-
tons has been discovered stored away in the
garrett of Browns residence. A large quantity
is stored in his stable and small consignments
are at various places in the township. Many of
the school-houses are overloaded with furniture,
and in the trustees Office were a score of boxes
that contained a set each of geometrical blocks
that are of no value. but for which exorbitant
prices were paid.
Inc suspicion that some other trustees of the
county had been drawn into the nefarious scheme
seems to lack foundation though as yet no
reports have been sent in. The commissioners
are debating whether to require an immediate
