Another migrate,

The HERALD a few days ago told the
story of the ungrateful manner in which a
young Polish man of town was treated by
countryman he had befrienied. The
latter, after being fed, clothed and given
employment, robbed his benefactor's trunk
of Sl00. A second case of the kind has
now come to light. About month ago
a stranger who gave the name of Louis
Longate called at boarding house on
"the rocks" kept by one John Stamster
and told pitiful tale of woe. STAN tr
took the man in and after giving h m
clothing, meals and good bed, secured
employment for him in the Gilberton
colliery. On Wednesday Longate dis
appeared after he had received his
pay from the colliery and robbing his
beuefactor and every boarder in the house.
He stole sums varying from S. to S35 from
trunks in the house and secured about
$3.50 in all. Longate worked on farm
in the Catawissa Valley all summer and
in his travels dresses as a laborer. He
was last seen in VIM. Penn.

The gubernatorial election in Ala

dispatches indicate that it will be a
close contest. Hon. W. .. Oates is
the democratic candidate, and he i.
opposed by K. +. Kolb. who ran
against Gov. Jones in 1892. Now as
then. kolb is claiming n victory. and
is STOPPING to desperate measures to

nations, and are of course support

colleagues in the hope of wrenching
the state from the hands Of the dem
ocrats. Notwithstanding the boast.
full claims of the opposition. it is
highly probable that Mr.. Oates will

as he certainly should be.
