CHARGING MR.. ALLEN.
Arrested at Pottsville Yesterday But II,
l. Not Alarmed.

Arrested at Pottsville Yesterday But He
Is Not Alarmed.
The movement against County Commits
sioner elect Allen assumed very aggressive
shape yesterday by his arrest on warrant
issued by Justice Fister of Pottsville ,on oath
of Major Sam Losch, secretary of the Repub-
iican County Committee. The move was not
a surprise to Mr.. Allen. He had been warned
that it would be made and took the exocu-
tion of the warrant as huge joke
On making his appearance before the
Justice Mr.. Allen was informed that the
charge against him was violation Of the
election laws. The complaint was read to
him as follows:
Whereas, complaint hath been made unto
j. H. Fister Esq, one of our Justices of the
Peace for said County of Schuylkill on affir.
nation Of Samuel A, Losch of the County OF
Schuylkill, that in September, October and
November, 1893, at the county aforesaid, that
Charles F. Allen did in the months Of Sep.
tember October and November, as the prose-
cutor is informed and believes, while being a
candidate for office Of County Commissioner
for Schuylkill county, did violate the election
laws of this Commonwealth in that he did
promise to pay money and give office to
divers persons who are voters in Schuylkill
county, in consideration of their voting and
using their influence for his election to the
said office, contrary to the Act of Assembly
in such case made and provided"
The prosecution was represented by D. c.
Henning, c. F. Snyder and W. D. Seltzer
Esqs.
Mr.. Allen pleaded mot guilty" to the
charge and under instruction of his counsel
J. o. Ulrich, Esq, of Tamaqua waived a
hearing, The Justice required bail in the
sum of $4,000 for Mr.. Aliens appearance at
the January term of court and Mr.. Benjamin
Miller was offered as the bondsman, but upon
objection by the prosecuting attorneys, the
Justice refused to accept the bail. Mr..
Ulrich then presented M. Rohrheimer, the
Pottsville clothier, as bondsman, and he was
accepted.
In response to dispatch from the HERALD
today Mr. Allen said that he was open to an
interview, but he did not see that anything
could be added to the statements already
made by the newspapers He had no fear OF
the result of the suit brought against him,
as he had made no ante election promises;
hence he was entirely innocent Of the charge
In response to an inquiry as to the truth OF
the report that the Allen people intended to
take turn at prosecutions and haul up Ger
tain officers elect for making ante election
promises, Mr.. Allen said it was true such
reports had been made but the steps would
depend upon future developments
Mr. Allen spent today at Pottsville at work
on the county audit, and his demeanor was
by no means like that of a man who feared
he would go to jail He said the Board OF
Commissioners would be organized next
Tuesday, and the appointments to take
effect on the first of the year will then be
made public. The appointments to 90 into
effect in April will not be made public until
that month. Meanwhile Mr.. Allen will hold
himself in readiness for his trial

its corridors are so intcrminablc that
it is a vcritablc labyrinth. because of

When you come to Washington and

the children did to-day you should
go to the east front and climb the
central main staircase and then Won
will enter the rotunda. directly under
the dome. Any other entrance will
confuse you, and when You get inside
you will spend more time trying to find
out where You are, than in enjoying
the beauties of your surroundings. From
this central point you can go to the
senate and explore that wing of the
great cditicc. Then you can easily
find your way back to the rOtuntln,
and from that starting point yon can
go to the house of representatives

they were not permitted to do So
They are too young to undertake such

IS no elevator to the dome 1t is a
great conical iron roof covering the ro-

enable those who are strong and am

the dome and stand outside near the
goddess of Liberty. From that loca-
ton one can SEQ the Blue Ridge noun
tains many miles away, and the con
tignous scenery is indcscribahly beau

great one, and the descent is not de-
void of danger, because the stairs are
so steep. The children looked longing
~ at the door leading to the dome and
reluctantly gave up their desire to
climb. 1t is often very difficult for
young people To yield to the Judgment
