LUCKY Delay.
A Defaulting BOarder Walks Into the
Laws Clutches.

Samuel Ostriok, a peddler Of speotacles
left town few days ago, leaving at the
Ferguson House an unpaid board bill
amounting to seven dollars, an empty
satchel and a number of empty spectacle
cases.
This morning County Detective Amour
was instructed to trace Ostrick and bring
him back to town. The man was supposed
to be at Mt. Carmel or Shamokin. Amour
was at the Lehigh Valley depot this morn.
ing awaiting the arrival of the belated
train TO take him to Shamokin when a
small boy walked up to him and said,
There's a man down the railroad that
wants his baggage. Here's the check" The
boy had mistaken Amour for the baggage
master The circumstances struck the
detective rs singular and after question
ing the boy the officer started down the
railroad. As Amour approached Cherry
street he saw man run. Amour fol
lowed. The chase was out Cherry street
to Jardin and down the latter street, over
"the rocks" to the Pennsylvania railroad
station, where the fugitive was overtaken
and identified as Ostrick, the missing spec
| tacle peddler. Oatrick had left Shamokin
! early this morning. He left the train at
the junction near the "Pennsy" depot and
walked to the depot, where he purchased
a ticket for Washington, d. G. He then
sent boy TO the Lehigh Valley depot for
the satchel that had been left on the train
He avoided the Lehigh Valley depot,
as he expected q watch was being kept
for him. Had the west bound train
been on time Amour would have had a
fruitless trip to Shamokin and the ped
dler would have made his trip to Wash
ington unmOlested.
Ostrick was taken before Justice VIII.
Jams and pleaded guilty, but said he had
no money. The agent at the "Pennsy"
depot redeemed the Washington ticket
and with the proceeds the prisoner paid
the board bill and costs, whereupon he
was discharged.
Ostrick sported himself with different
girls,during his first visit to town He
says that one of them robbed him of his
pocketbooB and that was the reason why
he left the board bill unpaid

DEAR SIR In answer to your In
quiry about what effect the machine
had which I bough from you, will say,
my wife was down with rheumatism
most of the time last winter and part Of
last spring, spent a good deal of
money for medicines and doctor bills.
She only received temporary relief. In
July L bought from you one of your in
struments and ones Atle of oil Since
that time l have bous 1t another bottle
of the oil. As to the result L will say
it has done more good for my wife
than al other remedies put together
which we have used. My wife now is
well. Ii she feels any pain at all she
always ends it with one application
from your instrument and the rubbing
on OF the oil. We have used it on our
children for sore throat and other
pain. 1t has never failed in giving
relief. would be more than willing
to aid you in helping others if L could
do so Yours very truly,
SVEN O. N1ELsON.
