Much Trouble for IA Small sum.

Daniel Ryan, an inmate for several
years of the Schuylkill county aims
house, died three years ago and was
given a pauper's burial. Ryan had al
ways professed to be in destitute circum-
stances, and the poor directors were
surprised recently to find among the be-
longings of another inmate bank book
bearing Ryan's name and containing
credits amounting to $l20. Investiga-
tion showed that Ryan on his death bed
handed over the book, which was on
the Safe Deposit Bank of Pottsville, to
fellow inmate. The latter had made
several attempts to secnre the money
on deposit, but had failed.
When questioned about the book he
admitted all the facts and offered to
give it up for S75. The poor directors
refused any compromise and rightly con-
sidering that the county had a bill
against the deceased for his keep, they
instituted proceedings in the orphans
court. The county will have very
small sum left out of Ryan's bank ac-
count to pay his board after the court
and other costs in the proceedings are
settled,

"The Burglar" Next Week.

a play somewhat different from the
usual order of dramatic offerings will be
seen at the opera house on Thursday

of the kind has the potency in drawing
from all classes and conditions of peo-
pie that is experienced by "The Bur

less favored with the worlds goods, are
equally absorbed with the story. In a
home Of wealth and refinement are all
the scenes enacted, even where the bur
glary is attempted, though frustrated by
the artless endeavors of bright child of
