REIGN OF LAWLESSNESS.
lIurders and Robberies on the Mountain
Roads Near Hazleton.

murders and HObbertes on the Mountain
Roads Near HazletOn.
HAZLEToN, Pa, Nov. 20-John Osef-
sky, his wife and his brother Peter were
sent to Wilkesbarre Jail to await trial on
the charge Of having murdered John
Kokowski under the verdict found by the
ooroner's jury.
Last night the jury considered the
shooting Of John HOlodOok at Minesville
on Sunday night and brought in verdict
OF deliberate murder against John Bo-
back, who will be sent to jail today.
The reign of lawlessness along the
mountain roads continues in spite of this
action. Three more highway robberies
occurred yesterday, and one will probably
add to the murder list.
John Rouok, driver for local beef
company, was held up at Lattimer, and
at the point of a revolver he was compelled
to empty his pockets.
William Walton, while driving an un.
dertaker's wagon near Ebervale, was shot
at twice.
John Habela was waylald by masked
men near Cranberry and robbed of $50
He was kicked into insensibility, and the
doctors say he will die. The police have
maintained vigilant search, but only
one suspeot-Rrank Doney-has been ar
rested. He had revolver with two empty
chambers
The citizens are growing desperate and
there is talk Of organizing a vigilance
committee of 100 men to check the atrooi-
ties

Last Boat Of the Season.

The last loaded boat of the season,
says the Gazette, on the Delaware
and Hudson canal passed through
Port Jervis last week. Light boats
will continue running until those
now started have reached Honesdale.
Loaded boats will continue to Kings
ton, before the canal will close for
the season. This is an unusally
early date at which to discontinue
boating and many are of the opinion
that the tying up of the boats at
either end of the canal may mean
some change in the program for
next year.

Of interest to Liquor Dealers.

Next year all petitioners for license
in Northampton county will be
considered as new applicants.
An order was made by the Court at
Easton W. w. Schuyler, P. j., and
H. w. Scott, j., Nov. ~, 1895, which
directs that all petitioners for license
in 1896 will be treated as new ap-
plcations, and that every petitioner
must make out his case with the same
precision as if presented for the first
time. The Free Press is of the
opinion that this order means the
wedding out of a number of places
now licensed. Wedding out ;" is a
good word.

Why Not Sent Them as Missionaries to Tam.

The two bruisers, Corbett and
Fitzsimmons, after skirmishing
about the country, have finally
given up the proposed fight, as none
of the states will permit it. If these
two bullying loafers, says the Orange
County Farmer, could both be put
into a bag, heavily weighted, and
dropped into the middle of the At
lantic ocean, the world would be bet

in promoting the fight could be

SAVANNAH, Ga, Feb 27.-A mob of
5000 to 5000 surrounded Masonic tenn
pie for five hours, requiring all the mil

it was between lines Of soldies, and
Slattery was escorted to his hotel by a
guard, who remained on duty all night.
Priests Deplore It.
The priests are denouncing the rioters
as having brought disgrace on their
church and the combined influence may
keep them away from the Masonic hall.
It came out that one or two small pieces
of dynamite or some other high explo.
sive were among the things thrown al
the hall. One exploded and shattered
two or three frames of glass. The pc
lice have q long list of names of leader
of the rioters and they will be arrestei

ers insulted and defied the recorder II
