A BOLD ACT.

But the Intruder Got More Than he
Ba ,ined For
Saturday night an unknown Polish or
Hungarian man called at the DIR. STEMS of.
fee The Office boy had just left and Mrs.
Stein is visiting her parents in Philadelphia,
so only the doctor and the visitor were in the
house. The man demanded fifty cents and
Dr. Stein refused to give it to him. The fell
low then drew an ugly knife saying 'You
- ---, kill you" The physi-
clan stepped back little, but there was no
way to get out Of the room without passing
the intruder. The doctor retained his com
posure and while slowly advancing tried 10
convince the man that he had no money,
then he suddenly pounoed upon the fellow
He pinned the fellow in such position that
he could not use the knife and then pounded
him until he cried for mercy and begged to
be allowed to depart The doctor hustled the
intruder to the front door and kicked him
ont. A moment later the would-be robber
and knife were out of sight.

"THE DRUMMER BOY"
1t Was Presented by Strong Cast sa
urday Evening. q

It Was Presented by a Strong Cast Sat
urday Evening ME
Ferguson's theatre was comfortably filed
Saturday evening to witness the second pro.
duction of the war drama, "The Drummer
Boy, or Spy of Shiloh" under the auspices of
Camp 206, P. o. S. of A. The committee not
only showed good judgment in the selection
Of this play, but displayed wise selections in
the filing of the various characters. The
latter was the finest display of dramatic home
talent that has yet appeared upon the boards
of this theatre. The numerous encores and
favorable comments by those who witnessed
the performances fully attest this fact. A
request has been made from Girardville for
the production of the play, by the same cast,
in that town on the 9th inst.
Phil. ]. Connell, of Girardville, the eff.
cient clerk in the County Commissioners
Office, showed his dramatic abilities in the
chracter of 'Frank Rutledge," his imper-
sonation of this part being worthy a pro-
fessional actor. E. ]. Cotter, of town, as
Mart Howard" deserves special mention.
Although the play has been produced here
several times, never before has this character
been so ably filled by local talent as it was in
the person of Mr.. Cotter.
A. F. Nail, owner of the play, as "Uncle
Joe" and c. H. Sampsel as Fatty Smith" "
kept the audience in good humor. The three
Guldin sisters, of Pottsville, were favorably
received, especially Minnie and Birdie the
former taking the part of Johnny Howard, I"
the drummer boy, and the latter as Little
Pickaninny." Their singing and dancing was
excellent, and ELECTED hearty applause
In fact, the entire cast, from the military
display to the leading characters, could
hardly have been improved upon by local
talent, and each appeared to be suited to the
part assigned him or her.

Picture Men Charged.

Young men have been canyassing Blooms
burg for orders to enlarge pictures. The
Daily of that place charge the canvassers
with brazen faced impudence and tricllery
and with forging the name of one of their
victims to ten dollar order for a picture.
Two of the young men threatened to sue the
Daily for libel and that paper says an inves-
tigation of the charges it made has only re-
suited in a confirmation of them. The Daily
says the young men are w. H. Comstock and
r. p. McGinty and says they are now in
Danville. 1t does not retract the charges.
Whether OF not the charges are true people
cannot be too careful in dealing with strange
canyassers, especially when signatures to
contracts are sought.

week the HERALD gave an account of a man
appearing in nude condition on the high
way leading to Jackson's Patch and chasing
young lady who resides in this town and
who teaches school in Mahanoy township.
Since the case was reported the Coal & Iron
police and constables of this town have been
on the lookout for the rascal Constable
Toomey finally succeeded in locating him in
a Polish boarding house in the First ward.
The man was arrested and taken before
Squire Monaghan.
At the hearing Miss Agnes shirey who
resides at Lanigans, and works in dress
making establishment on East Centre street
Miss Lizzie Corrgan, also of Lanigan's, and
working at the same place, and Miss Bridget
Corrigan, who is employed at Miss Maggie
Mack's dress making establishment on South
Main street, appeared as witnesses.
Another Miss Corrigan and Miss Sadie
Daniels, of town, are also witnesses, but they
were not called and their testimony is held
in reserve until the trial These two ladies
are teachers in the same school in Mahanoy
township.
The accused man, whose name is Joe Rak-
less, protested his innocence and the young
ladies who appeared before the justice
we're not quite positive of their Identification
at first. They said the man who chased them
wore an overcoat and they described parts of
the coat that were covered with mud.
Rakless admitted that he owned an over
coat and offered to go to his boarding house
and get it, but Constable Toomey was sent af-
ter the garment and found it.
When the coat was produced Rakless pro-
tested that it was not his coat and turned his
arms and shoulders into various shapes to
show that it would not fit him. The constable
and justice finally succeeded in getting the
coat on him and it fitted the man perfectly.
As soon as the coat was fitted the three
witnesses shouted in chorus, Eyes, he is the
man, and there are the patches of mud on the
coat"
The Identification seemed complete and the
accused was held for trial, William Yetko
furnishing 81 900 bail for him.
Rskless gave further evidence of his guilt
by explaining that he was not near the scene
when the alleged acts were committed, al
though he had not been inf trmed of the
time they were committed. When asked
how he knew the day Miss Daniels was
chased he became confused and declined to
say any more. Rakless worked as a laborer
in the Suffolk colliery for John Layey, of
town.

upon several young women who have been
striving to earn livelihood by conducting a
dress making establishment on West Coal
street.
The Misses Connoll, daughters of Patrick
Connell, have been conducting dress MAX
ing establishment at their home, SIC West
Coal street. Fer the past two years they have
missed pieces of dress goods and even finished
dresses. Numerous articles belonging to the
family also disappeared. Finally the losses
ran up to close upon $500, but until recently
no clue to the guilty person could be found.
Finally suspicion rested upon the fourteen
year-old daughter of the family, Katie. She
was watched and found carrying goods from
abe house to a saloon kept by one Sockolosky Y
at the extreme western end of Coal street.
Katie was accused and she confessed Her
story was revelation. She said that for the
past two years she has stolen various articles
from her home and upon taking them to
sockolosky's saloon and the house of Mrs.
Kate Collonosky, a woman living near the
saloon, she received small sums of money.
Katie did not charge sockolosky, but i'm
plicated his wife, Eva, and her two daugh.
ters, Maggie and Alice, aged 16 and % years.
respectively, Mrs. Kate Collouosky and her
daughter, Mary aged IA years. The girl said
that these people encouraged her in the
thieving business and received the booty from
her, paying from to so cents for various ar.
ticles. Fifty cents, she said, was the most
she received at one time. For one article
worth about SIP she received but so cents.
Upon the girls statement Squire Monaghan
issued a search warrant and he and Constable
Toomey executed it. When they went to
search the Sockolosky and Colonosky houses
they found that the accused women had
already started to carry some of the stolen
goods back to the Connell residence.
A search brought to light a large quantity
of dress goods of all kinds, some cut into
patterns and Others uncut; carpets, ribbons
and trimmings; part of a wedding gown
looking glasses, large aud small table cloths,
silk handkerchiefs, ornaments and other
articles, valued in the aggregate at about
5000 and all identified by the ConnelI
family
The accused parties were asked what they
did with a fancy wheelbarrow, parlor or.
nament and one of them said she had
donated it to the Lithuanian fair, which
closed recently She said it would be re-
turned.
Each of the accused were held for trial in
the sum of $500, which was furnished by
Mrs Sockolosky's husband.
Squire Monaghan believes that he has sue
ceeded in unearthing notorious fence"

Shortly after the recent election thousands
of afourth class postmasteIs, mail transfer
agents and others in the employ of the Post
Office Department. feeling that soon they
would be compelled to vacate their positions
for men in the opposite political party, began
to look about for other employment or to
make combinations for the transfer Of their
positions to Democrats, who, it is supposed,
would be protected under the new admins
tration. designations began to pour in by
the thousands every week. The department
officials soon made up their minds that they
would not be a party to the exodus Of Re-
publicans in the interest of Democrats or any
body else, and so they refuse to accept the
designations unless the officers are incom-
petent disabled or show some other equally
good reason for desiring relief from their
positions.
1t requires good grounds, the department
says, to get out of or into the post office SER
vice now, and this condition will continue
till March f. ODE.

The Schuylkill Traction Company's cleo
trio railway was opened for traffic between
Mahanoy City and Mahanoy Plane on Thurs
day last The first car left the former place
about 2 o'clock, having on board Chief En-
gineer Robert Binning superintendent
Gillian, Mr.. Amour, and three employees of
the company, and as passengers Mrs. Nc
Guire, VIM, A. Bensinger and E. J. Ford.
The car jumped the track below Mahanoy
City and the two first named passengers made
up their minds it would not go through, and
walked back home. Butcher Ford had de-
termined to 90 through, however, and stayed
with the car, thereby earning the honor of
being the first passenger to make the trip
from Mahanoy City to Mahanoy Plane and
back. On the return Mrs. Neary, woman
of Gilberton weighing nearly 300 pounds,
who had made bet of S. with her son that
she would ride to Mahanoy City on the first
car that went through, got on board at that
place and earned the distinction of being the
first lady passenger to Mahanoy City on the
electric railway.
