The Town Election.


The election of Mayor and Aldermen of
the town Of Union passed of with rcrfect
quiet last Tuesday.
A second ticket for Aldermen only, was
placed in the field, but ,he ticket nomintt-
ed by the people at the large public meeting
held for that purpose, the week before, was
overwhelmingly, elected, as the following
official return of the vote shows:

Mayor and three of the Aldermen elected
were Of the old Council. The fourth, Mr..
Harry; fills the place of MIR, 7, B, Butler,
who refused to be n candidate.
Now, gentlemen, let us see what improve
mcnt you are upon the dcfunct council.
That body let considerable work unfinished,
on the streets. We called the attention of
the old council to the rocks and other debris
they permitted to remain on the streets
much TO the annoyance of those riding in
vehicles, as they bump every 20 steps over
rocks chunks of wood, &c, and the very
s'oveuly appearance such unscemly Obstruc-
tions gave the town; out they paid no more
attention t. what we sad than if we had
asked them TO lend us dollar. The rocks
arc there, yet.
Now, gcntlcmcu, you must consider your
dependent poSit on, and "obcy Orlers.
You have been publicly told that you are our
servants. The old Council Ill int seem to
apI rcciatc their standing in the community,
but did as an Cd candidate in this county

After MiddleWeight HonorS.

San FRANCISCO, Jan. 17.-Jack Nc
Auliffe, the lightweight champion of
the world, has challenged Young Mitch
ell. the middleweight champion of the
Pacific coast, to box six rounds for any
amount Mitchell may name. Young
Mitchell and Jim Ryan boxed ten
rounds in Oakland about month ago
which was declared draw but the
general opinion was that Ryan had a
little the best of it. The decision in
favor of McAuliffe in his contest with
Ryan last night leads him to suppose
that he can easily defeat Mitchell,
while great many believe that Ryan
did not try to win. McAuliffe stoutly
denies that the fight was hippodrome,

An Empty Xardict.

SAN Francisco, Jan. 1.-THE civil
suit brought by the directors of the
Veterans Home association to recover
from Clark E. Royce, their ex-treas-
urer, money said to have been appro-
priated by him, was brought to con-
clusion today, the verdict of the jury
being in favor of the plaintiff for the
full amount of the alleged defalcation,
$4,000, with interest at per cent per
annum from April %, 1898. to date. As
Royce is now under sentence of seven
years at San Quentin for crime and as
he has no property so far as known, the
judgment is not of much value to the
directors OF the home.

A DESPERATE BATTLE
With Masked Robbers at Dan
Vile, Pa.
A Citizen Killed and an Exciting but
Fruitless Chase After
the MurdererS.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
DANvILLE, Pa, Jan. 17.-Five masked
outlaws made raid on the postoffice at
an early hour this morning. A police
man saw the masked men crouching in
doorway and he drew a revolver but
before he could fire a stranger slipped
around the corner. The policeman gave
an alarm and in few minutes was re-
inforced by two other officers. They ran
to the postofice in time to meet mys-
FERROUS stranger emerging from the door
followed by companion. They blew
whistles and then commenced firing
their revolver at the policemen
who lodged behind lamp posts
and returned the fire. The shots were
exchanged when the robbers were re-
inforced by three more men. Everyone
was we'll armed and continuous round
of firing commenced. Numerous citi-
zens appeared armed with weapons OF
every description and the firing became
90 warm that the robbers concluded to
retreat to the river bank. They dis
charged three volleys at the excited
IOWOSmen ana ran eaStWdrU eaCu eX-
changing Shots
Van Glider, who led the pursuers,
suddenly threw up his hands and fel!
shot through the lungs. About the
same time two of the robbers fell.
Their comrades grabbed them and dur
ing momantary halt of the pursuers
managed to reach the Susquehana
river. A rowboat was secured and the
outlaws, after laying their wounded
companions in the bottom of the boat,
commenced sculling in the direction OF
the northumberland side.
The pursuers, now force of 100
infuriated men, secured boats and and
an exciting chase commenced. Re-
volvers and rifles were cracking at every
turn but no one was hit. Owing to the
good start, the outlaws succeeded in
reaching the opposite shore before the
! foremost boat was hallway across,
and when the pursuers reached land
the robbers had reached the mountains
which are being secured on all sides by
a sheriff's posse. In the event of their
being surprised another desperate bat
tie will occur. The sheriff declares that
he will bring back the slayers of Van
Glider dead or alive.

DUMINO'S FINE RECORD.
The Greatest Two-Year-Old Of the
Present Season.
He Has Earned the Enormous Sum of
S176,73O for His Owners-Entered for
Every Big Event Possible
Next Year.

Domino, a two-year-old that was
never beaten, was formerly retired for
the season by his owners, James R.
and FoXhall P. Keene, the other day.
These sportsmen could well afford to
prepare the colt for an easy winter in
a fine barn, with covered way for his
daily gallops. Every great two-year-
old event in the east but one, the
Junior champion stakes, was won bv
this phenomenal performer. That this
race was not added to his list of VIC
tories was the fault of an exercise boy
who handled the valuable youngster so
carelessly in his preliminary trial that
Domino came in lame. Trainer Lake
land would not allow the colt to start
showing symptoms of lameness.
Neither would the Messrs Keene, for
they have gained an enviable reputa-
tion on the American turf because of
their ironclad determination never to
start horse unless he is fit to race
well.
Eight successive victories and an ex-
asperating dead heat race with Dob
bins, a colt that he should have beaten
as handily as he has the other two
year-olds of the first division, is the
grand record of Domino. His total
winnings, says the Chicago Post, reach
the enormous sum of SIG, $50, or sew
eral thousands more than any other
horse bred in America ever put to his
credit in one year. But for Ayrshire,
a colt owned by the duke of Portland,
the same might be said of Domino,

Preparing Him for Jail.

Judge O., who once presided over
a criminal court ''down east" was ia
nous as one of the most compassionate
men who ever sat upon bench. His
softness of heart, however, did not pre-
vent him doing his duty as judge. A
man who had been convicted of steal
ing a small amount was brought into
court for sentence. He looked very sad
and hopeless and the court was much
moved by his contrite appearance.
Have you ever been sentenced to i'm.
prisonment?" the judge asked
''Never! never!' exclaimed the pris.
oner, bursting into tears.
Don't cry, don't cry" said Judge
O., consolingly; you're going to be
now!"-Million.

A Russian Intrigue.

SHANGHAI, Jan. 17.-Reports are re-
ceived here of fresh Russian intrigue
to gain foothold in Cores. The Russian
representatives at the Corean court it
is said are badgering the king to allow
the establishment of an agricultural
colony of a hundred Russian families
at Keikefu, in the province of Kank-
yedo, some distance from river Tuimen,
which forms the Russo Corean bound
airy. The Chinese government regards
the place as of great strategic value and
as it is not fertile district it looks with
suspicion upon the Russian demand
which is being vigorously opposed by
the Chinese minister resident.
