A number os prominent papers
made the statement that General

a candidate for Congress in the 2Sth
district consisting of Clarion, Forest,
Elk, Clearfeld and Centre Counties.

Charles Hane, the man who is
serving a six months sentence in the
County Jail for larceny, is mechan-
ical genius. He is employing his
spare time very proitably in making
bracket work. The walls of his cell
are literally covered with bracket
work, while in the center of the room
stands piece of mechanism repre-
senting three-story house with all
the rooms supplied with furniture.
The exterior of the house is very
handsomely decorated and the entire
product is an evidence of dexterity
! and skill.
