BURGLARS AT WORK,
Two Safes Blown Open on Sunday Morn
ing-Six Men in Jail Charged
With Doing the Jobs.

Early Sunday morning the general
store of J. G. Berner, at Washington and
South Streets, was entered by burglars,
who blew open large safe, from which
they secured about $500 in cash. Sew
eral hundred dollars worth of jewelry,
watches, underwear, shirts, etc., were
also removed from the store while pre-
parations were being made to open
the safe. The explosion awakened Mr..
Berner, who concluded that someone
was in the store, and he fired few shots
from an upper window in the direction
of the safe. He then went down to the
storeroom, but the men had disappeared,
leaving all the doors of the building
open, showing that their plans for escape
had been well laid The safe was totally
wrecked and the neat manner in which
the hole was bored pointed out experts
as the guilty parties.
A general examination of safes and
stores was made by the business men,
which resulted in finding that the Free
land Beef Company's building on Wash
ington Street had also been entered and
the safe blown open. Here, however,
the burglars secured nothing for their
labor, there being no money or valuables
of any kind in the building. Word was
Immediately sent to all the surrounding
towns to intercept any suspicious charac-
ters, and on Sunday afternoon Jersey
Central conductor discovered party of
men in freight car near the Tannery.
Assistance was procured from Mauch
Chunk and without much trouble the
whole gang, consisting of six men, were
captured and placed in the Carbon
County Jail, charged with damaging the
railroad company's property. A search
of the men brought forth small amount
of money, several pieces of jewelry, re-
volvers and other evidences of the rob-
berry of that morning. Mr.. Berner and
the authorities here were notified of the
capture and the prisoners were brought
from Mauch Chunk Monday afternoon.
They were given hearing before Squire
Grimes, and afterwards taken to the
county Jail at Wilkes-Barre to await trial.
A dispatch from Wilkes-Barre states
that Chief of Police Wade of Scranton
was there on Tuesday for the purpose of
looking at the prisoners. He suspects
two of the gang of being implicated in
the murder of Policeman Lewis Ellis in
Hyde Park last January. Several per-
sons who saw the men who killed the
officer will be brought to identify them.

Railroaders' PrecautiOn.

A railroad man says there is no rea-
son for persons getting caught in frogs
or between parallel rails if they will fol-
low the simple rules of all railroaders.
That is to step over every rail and frog,
and never step on them when crossing.
If you care to watch the switchmen and
others, should you happen to be in a
yard, you will see that they will never
step on the rails or frogs, but always
over them. 1t is the invariable rule
among railroad men, and if people would
follow it there would be no more acci-
dents from getting caught on frogs.

is SO difficult to know which is which,

A CHANGE of fashion has been decreed
for postage stamps. The contract for
furnishing these for the next four
years has been awarded to the Ameri-
can Bank Note Company, of New
York, and the style in which they will
appear will undergo material change.
The stamps will be one-eighth smaller
than those in present use and the de-
signs will be changed to conform to
this reduction, necessitating new en-
cravings throughout. The one-cent
stamp will continue to be printed in
blue, but the two-cent will be changed
from green to a bright carmine. A
few other denominations will be treated
to new dress, but the most notable
change will be in the familiar stamp
that is the multitudinOus letter writer's
guarantee of transit for his missive
throughout the limits of Uncle Sans
dOminions.

WATSON G. SQUIRE.
A Short Biographical Sketch Of a
Distinguished Citizen.

Watson C. Squire, distinguished,
courteous and scholarly, first Senator of
the new State of Washington, was
born in Cape Vincent, New York, in
1888. He received his early educa-
ton in the seminaries at Fulton and
Fairfield, in the empire State. He
entered the sophomore class of the
Wesleyan University at Middleton,
Conn, at eighteen years of age and
graduated in his twenty-first year.
After leaving his Alma Mater, the
young scholar began teaching school
in Cayuga county, N. Y, where he
was Principal of the Moravian Insti-
tute. In 1861 he left his school and
donned the blue uniform enlisting for
three months service. From private
he arose to First Lieutenant in Com
pany F. Nineteenth New York Infan-
try. After five months service he was
honorably discharged, and began the
study of law and was admitted to prac-
tice in the Supreme Court Of Ohio in
June 1862. He then raised a COM
pany of sharpshooters who did their
first effective service at MurfreesbOro,
Tenn, in the army of the Cumberland,
under General Rosecrans. He was
afterwards made judge advocate of the
district of Tennessee, with headquar-
ters at Nashville. There being no
civil or criminal courts within the dis.
trict, all offenders, both against civil
or criminal courts within the district,
were tried by military court mar
tial, and at one time there were as
many as sixteen court martial and
five military commissions engaged
in the trial of such offenders within
Mr.. Squire's jurisdiction, Afterwards
he engaged with the Remington Arms
Company and applied himself to the
study of breech-loading arms, and
spent thirteen years in acquiring q
knowledge of this art. He represent
ed the Remington Arms Company in
the principal counties of the other
continent, and became intimately
known in the capitals of Europe. In
1870 he purchased large interests in
Washington Territory, removed to Sc.
attic in 1879, and has made that city
his permanent place of residence ever
since. He was appointed Governor of
the Territory, July 2, 1884, serving in
that capacity three years. and was the
last Territorial Governor to be removed
by Cleveland.

THE practice of publishing the
daily lists of pensions granted has
been resumed. In one of the latest
lists the Illinois pensioners fill thirty
two lines OF newspaper print, and the
Indiana names fill 78 lines. And vet
Illinois is the more populous State
and sent the greater number of SOL
diers to the Federal Army. There are
many advantages in living in a close
State, and the practice of giving a
preference to Indiana applicants,
which was established by Colonel
Dudley, of Indiana, has been faithfully
adhered to by all his successors, each
OF whom has feared the political effect
in so close a State of seeming less
prompt and liberal than his prede-
cessor. And so the veteran from Illi-
nois has to wait while the veteran
from Indiana walks up to the Com
missioner's Office and collects his ar
rearages.

He HAD Big FAMILY.-In making
final proof before the U. S. Land Office,
Judge Guichard usually asks: Have
you family?' Most of them answer
in the affirmative, but the other day
he got hold of a man, who had the
biggest family on record. "Have you
any family?" said the Judge, as he
pulled down his vest. eyes, sir" said
the man, somewhat confused. What
does it consist Off" continued Mr..
Guichard. "Well," said the man,
looking up toward the ceiling, so as to
refresh ibis mind and give a true ac-
count, ga wife and twelve children,
two married, hired man, a gang
plow, seeder, Balm wagon and a
span of mules" That's enough said
the Judge with a smile, and the settler
got his final papers without any further
trouble.

The once powerful organization
known as the Knights of Labor is on
the wane. Last year New York sent
delegates to the general assembly who
represented 10000 members in good
standing. This year there are only
5000 to be represented. New York
is fair criterion of the whole coun-
try. At one time the K. of L. was a
formidable body and numbered nearly
a million members. When it got to a
certain size, like the Gyfoo snake Of
Africa, it commenced at the tail end
and swallowed itself.
