A Large Gathering at the Shenan-
dOah Republican League
Meeting Last Night.
THE CHARGES PRESENTED.
MANY OUTSIDERS IN ATTENDANCE BX-
PECTING A SENSATIONAL TIME, BUT
THEY WERE DISAPPOINTED.
The Councilman Was Not in Attendance.
To be Furnished With a Copy of
the Charges and Notice of Trial.
Final Action at Next Meeting.

The Shenandoah Republican League
held another public meeting last evening
and the rooms were we'll filled by people
other than members who were anxious to
hear and see the proceedings attending
the clubs action against Councilman
d. r. James. The latter was not in
attendance, having been called out of
town early in the evening, with his
brother, on important business.
Long before the club rooms were opened
people who were not mem bers gathered
about the entrance to the headquarters
and inquired if outsiders would be ad
mitted. Upon receiving a favorable
answer they hocked into the rooms by
scores, and when President Daniel Ogden
called the meeting to order every seat in
the quarters was filed and many were
obliged to stand.
Those who attended with the expecia
tion of witnessing a lively time were dis
appointed. The meeting was quiet in
contrast with the last one, and there was
quite falling off in the attendance Of
star spanged orators. 1t was evident
that muc of the excitement that first
attended the recent CouncilmSnic deal
had worn off, although when the case
was before the club last night many Of
the members seemed as determined as
ever to press the charges and bring the
matter to a trial.
The committee of five appointed at the
previous meeting to formulate charges
against Councilman James was called
upon for its report and Frank b Williams
responded in its behalf by reading brief
paper setting forth that MIR. James had
been guilty of conduct unbecomiug a
gentleman and that his conduct had en-.
dangered the welfare and character of
the club.
The report was not received very favor
ably, many thinking the charges were
not made with sufficient force, but it was
explained by the committee that they
were simply drafted in order to bring
the case formally before the club and
could be amended as the members might
see fit. The secretary stated that Mr..
James had been notified to be present and
his absence was taken by some mem.
bers as a spirit of Indifference to
the clubs action. One or two
members wanted an immediate expul
sion and motion to that effect was
made, but cooler minds prevailed and
upon a wit hdrawal of he motion it was
decided that Mr.. James be furnished with
a copy of the charges made against him
with one weeks notice to appear and
answer. A question was raised as tc
whether the Councilman was really 6
member of the league. This was answered
in the affirmative by an inspection of the
records.

TESTING AN ARREST
Levy Refused to Pay the Fine
Imposed Upon Him by
Justice Williams.
CHARGED WITH PEDDLING.
HE WAS FINED FIFTY DOLLARS UNDER
THE STATE LAW AND GAVE
BAIL ON AN APPEAL.
Says he is a Salaried Salesman and
That to Prohibit His Operations
is Violation of His COnSti-
tutiOnal Rights.

Morris Levy, representative of Rhodes
& Jacobs, of Chicago, Ill, was in town
selling, as a salaried agent of the com
pany, picture frames and other products
He was arrested By Detective Amour and
taken before Justice Z. 7. Williams, who
imposed the state fine of $50 and costs.
This Levy refused to ray. He was com
mitted to the lookup, but subsequently
released upon 5000 bail The case was
returned TO court by Justice Williams
and the grand jury found a true bill.
Levy was not fined under the borough
ordinance regulating peddling and,
therefore, no question as to the legality of
the borough ordinance will arise in the
determination of the case. The defend
ant, however, is held under the state law
and the question will be whether che law
is applicable to a case of this kind,
where a manufacturing company resid-
ent of another state disposes of its
goods within another state by
its representative, or agent, such as was
done in this case. Levy went from door
| to door, soliciting orders for the sale of
pictures and frames and disposing of
them upon lease, as sewing machines are
sold.
District Attorney Ryan represents the
Commonwealth in the case and M. NJ.
| Burke, represents the defendant. The
question will set at rest the controversy
in town among business men as TO whether
sales of this kind are legal, or not.
1t has been decided by the Supreme
Court of this state in cases that went to
that court from the soroughs of 1itusville,
| Warren, Sayre and Shamokin, that sales
of this character are not prohibited by the
Act of Assembly. In fact it was held by the
United States Supreme Court at Wash
ngton, D. c., in the Titusville case, that
the Pennsy lvania Act of Assembly was
unconstitutional in that respect, or that
/ it is III conflict with the ma
| tional constitution and the Interstate
Commerce Act, inasmuch as it in
iuriously affects commerce between the
different states. Whether Levy will be
defended upon this ground remains to be
seen, but it will be of interest to the peo
pie of this borough to know what is the
law is respect to hawking and peddling.

His CrOp of rive,

A man who was crazy drunk and APP
peared to be farmer or farm hand,
walked into West Centre street storeat
about nine o'clock last night and de-
manded a pair of pantaloons. The re-
quest was not complied with and the
visitor pulled off his coat with the de-
clsred intention of cleaning out the place
He was hustled out to the pavement and
taken in charge by Chief of Police Tosh
and Lieutenant Lee. They gave the man
chance to navigate homeward but he
insisted upon telling how mean the
Hebrew proprietor of the place was and
Lee eventually locked him up. The

Special 70 the HERALD
PoTTsvILLE, March 15-The trial OF
Lewis Pascuto, the Italian charged with
the murder of Dominick Asia, a country
man, at Honey brook, Kline township, last
January, came to a sudden termination
this morning.
The evidence accumulated and pre-.
sented to the jury against the accused
man was plentiful and convincing From
the opening of the case the prisoners
chances of escaping conviction dwindled
steadily. After the Commonwealth closed
its case shortly before noon today the
prisoners counsel sought conference
with the Commemorative counsel and
offered to enter plea of guilt to murder
in the second degree. The Commonwealth
accepted the plea and it was announced
in open court. Judge Savage remanded
the prisoner until two o'clock for sentence.
At the hour named Judge Savage re.
opened court and the accused man was
given the privilege of making a statement
in his own behalf When he concluded
witnesses were called to testify to the
prisoners good character. Sentence will
be passed before the court adjourns.

A FINE BEVERAGE.
TOwnSmen Praise the Product of the
Eagle Run Brewery.


Mr., Max Schmidt, the North Main
street dry goods dealer, who recently be-
came interested with Henry Thurman,
late manager of the Kaier Brewing Com
pauy, in the proprietorship of the Eagle
Run Brewery, at Shamokin, lately owned
by Markell, entertained a number of his
gentlemen friends at his residence last
evening. Mr.. Schmidt received keg of
beer from the Eagle Run Brewery yester
day and he invited his friends to sampled
They did so and are loud in their praises
of it. The beverage was pronounced as
entirely different from any other beer
heretofore brought to this town. 1t is
distinctly superior to many Of the much
advertised best brewings and enjoys the
distinction of being the only beer sold in
the region that is brewed strictly after
the method in vogue in Germany. 1t was
sampled last night by many towns
men who are looked upon as con.
noisseurs and they pronounced it ex-
cellent in every respect. 1t is a medium
cOlored beer with substantial body and
leaves no after taste, or other disagreeable
effects. All who took part in the samp-
ling last night say that in this respect the
beer is without an equal. 1t holds full
sway at Shamokin. The people of that
place will have no other and consume the
full output ofthe brewery, which amounts
to fifteen thousand barrels annually. The
demand for the beer amounts TO fully
double that quantity and the proprietors
of the brewery have made arrangements
to increase the capacity to meetit. Judg
ing from the result of the test made by
Mr.. Schmidt last night the beer should
meet with great sale here.
