Last night girl, apparently about fifteen
years of age occupied one of the circle seats
in Fergusons theatre. She was neatly and
comfortably attred in red dress, black
coat aud dark trimmed light felt hat. She
had rather pleasing face, Her skirts were
short, indicating that at least her parents do
not consider her out of her teens. After the
show the girl was seen in the company Of
several young men, with different ones at
various times. This morning she loitered
about the Lehigh Valley depot for several
hours and when at last the members of "The
Wicklow Postman" company arrived to take
the train for Ashland it was discovered that
the girl had been following the troupe. She
was stage struck aud wanted Mr. O'Rourke TO
take her in his company. The girl said she
was from Mahanoy City. She accostcd Mr.
O'Rourkeat the depot and he gave her a sharp
lecture. After the company departed the
foolish girl complained to Station Agent Quinn
that she was without funds. Mr.. Quinn
kindly made arrangements for her return to
Mahauoy City.

out of him.
Doyle survived the ordeal, although he
was badly squeezed and the result may prove
fatal in his case 1t was necessary to remove

The storm of last night was in many re

The snow was not heaped as high, but the
severity Of the cold and the ferceness OF the
winds were up to the record. As one of the re-

country surrounding thi, town was cut oil. At

Shortly after o'clock last evening, and
during one of the most bitter periods Of the
storm, sn alarm of fire was sounded from the
corner Of Main and Centre streets Such an
alarm on such night always brings to the
minds of the people Of Shenandoah vivid
recollections of the great conhagration of
1888. and quite naturally the miner, the
business man, the professional man, and the
man of no particular business or profession,
all joined in grand rush to respond to the
alarm, The fire companies were on the scene
promptly but their services were not needed.
There really was no fire. chimney of one

some hasty people yelled fire" These people
pressed the button and the electric alarm
system did the rest.
About half an hour before this occurrence
a stove exploded in the house ON West Lloyd
street., ut it did no damage to the surround
ings and no alarm was sounded.
This morning. at about 4 ou.ocll the fire
bell received two taps and caused another
spasm of excitement which soon died out
when other taps failed to follow. These taps
were caused by other wires falling upon those

Trees that ornament the pavemeuts and
grounds surrounding residences in many
parts of the town suffered to considerable
extent Where the ferceness of the winds

havoc with the branches In some places
the trees themselves were bent over the
payements.
The electric railway also suffered consider.
bly, from the storm. The cars ran until a late
hour last night, but were unable to start this
morning. The trolley wire was mayed in
several places and the cars did not run at all
to day.

THE FEELEY STAND.

A case which aroused considerable interest
was that Of John Feeley, Of shenandoah
who held wholesale license in the Third
ward. Feeley's application was resisted by
his brother-in-law, Daniel Brennan, who had
an applicant for the place in the person Of
ex. Councilman Edward Devers, Of the Fifth
ward. Mr.. Deyers was represented by John
Whalen and Mr.. Feeley by Ksercher Bros,
W. d. Seltzer and ~ NJ Burke. Deyers
obtained a lease to the premises in dispute,
which are located at the corner Of West and
Laurel streets, from the owner, John Hughes
but the evidence showed that John Feeley
did not.have legal notice to quit and, there
fore, Feeley still has the right to the premises
for another year. This will, it is believed
give Feeey the license, az the courts have
generally granted licenses to the parties in
possession.
A good deal of ill.feeling has been worked
up between Brennan and Feeley, as Brennan
claims that he originally obtained the license
for the place as agent for a brewing company
and established Feeley in business under
him, and says Feeley took advantage of his
generosity by firmly establishing himself in
and securing control of the business.

The Williams killing.

An inquest was held on Sunday. over the remains of Conductor Joseph, who was killed on Saturday night by his wife, at Williams. the coroner's jury returning a verdict eXonerating the woman. There is no doubt but the woman was at least temporarily insane by the worse than cruel act of her husband, as 1t IS stated that while at Ash Fork he not only stood and listened to .he vile abuse of his wife, by the colored prostitute, without any pro test but that he slapped his wlfe's face, and that the colored woman followed Joseph and his wife to the car and there again used the most obscene and abusive language to- wards Mrs Joseph until a brakeman interfered. It was disclosed at the inquest that Mrs. Joseph intended to commit suicide, after killing her husband, but was prevented from doing so by a Mexican. I She had written letter to her father before committing the deed, giving her reasons for her act.
 Mir. and Mrs. Joseph were married in Prescott only a few months ago. Although Railroad men say that Joseph was going under an assumed name, his real name is Stewart. When he visited the colored woman at Ash Fork he took his little eleven year old son, by a former wife along with him.
 The Williams News, in its recital of the deed states that''the circum- stances surrounding the killing are such that would arouse the demon m most women and prompt them to act equally grave in extent and for which they would receive the sym pathy of the public. Although the coroner's inquest has not been completed, the evidence already submitted discloses facts one can hardly believe a person calling him sell man could be guilty of.
 Mrs. Joseph has letters in her possession from this negro prosti- tute and another woman ofiil repute to her husband. asking for money or aid from him, which proves be- yond doubt that her husband was living anything but moral life.

A Fire Last Night.

Just before eight o'clock last night an alarm of fire was sounded for blaze in the building occupied by Mir. and Mrs. Frank Harmon south of Capitol block. Owing to the out of the way location of the building it was difficult for the de- partment to get at it, and before they did the fire had made such headway that the building and its entire contents were destroyed.
 Mir. Harmon went away on Satur- day and did not return until last ever ing, during which time his wife was stopping at her parents, Mir. and Mrs. James Fl. Miles, and it is stated that during that time there was no fire in the house, so that the origin of the fire is a mystery, unless the work of an incendiary.
 A woman living in the neighbor hood, states that just prior to the fire, she saw man, wearing a cap, go away from the house.
 The building was owned by Mrs. Mary G. Mills and was insured for $500. The furniture owned by NIT. and Mrs. Harmon was insured for S5OO. Both are a complete loss. The building was the old Moeller residence, which was partially de- stroyed by fire few years ago, and moved to this lot about year ago. When the fire was first discovered. every room in the house seemed to be ablaze.
