IS HE KNOWN HEREp
A Mysterious Affair in Which Shenan-
dOah Party is Mentioned.

A Mysterious Affair in Which Shenan-
dOah Party is Mentioned.
The Shamokin Dispatch, on Friday,
contained the following bit of news in
two acts:
Anthony Volock says that he came from
Shenandoah last night on the 9.20 Lehigh
train and it slowed up at Luke Fidler to
allow him to get off, as he desired to go
to Springfield, where he had friends.
After getting off the train the man was
accosted by two men who asked him for a
chew OF tobacco and after that for ten
cents, He shook his head no to both re.
quests.
Volock was then jumped on by the men,
who beat him and robbed him of all his
money, which was nine dollars, an over.
coat, under-cost, and shoes from his feet.
The attacking party then fed and their
victim, Volock, wandered to town in his
sad plight and found a policeman to
whom he told his story and asked for a
place of safety. He was taken to the
lookup for the night and this morning
was furnished with a pair of shoes, coat
and hat, after which he started to find his
friends. Thus en- led chapter 1st.
CHAPTER 2ND.
Between 70 and 1 O'Clock last night a
humping was heard at the side entrance
of DR.. E. S. Robins residence, corner
Orange and Sunbury streets. The noise
continued quite while and startled the
folks from their sleep, who thought some
one was trying to get in the house As
they were about to awaken E. S. Robins,
Jr., they happened to look down on Sun
bury street from the front window apd
saw a man in his shirt sleeves, running
at 240 gait up Orange street toward
Dewart street. Going down stairs they
found double breasted sack coat pair
of Congress shoes and soft brown felt
hat, all in good condition, except the
coat, which was very muddy.
! Before we conclude with this chapter
The Dispatch will state that represen,
tative called at the Lehigh station at
noon and ascertained that last nights
9:20 train did not slow up at Luke Fiji
Ter. 1t being a station all trains stop
when passengers desire to get off. There
was no stop made last night.

Give the trolley a Chance.

From Daily Ashland Local.
Its a mystery to us, how the trolley
roads in Schuylkill county are able 10
make ends meet, when you take into con.
sideration the great amount of capital
invested, the trivial and unbusiness like
manner in which they are so frequently
treated, by those who should consider it q
duty to assist, instead of throwing every
obstacle in their way. Give the trolley
companies fair chance in their earnest
efforts to give the travelling public first
class service,

The Wonderful Announcements Made
in the Art Since the Worlds Fair.

In the Engravers Art the ''great fair''
was promoter toward the successful
engraving of photographs on copper
plates known as "half tone" These,
when made in the highest grade of the
art, are as clear and distinct as the
photograph from which they are
made, although reduced in size to only
a few inches of space. Miles of
picturesque scenery or building of
immense proportions can be shown on
a sized cut suitable for the corner of
letter paper, or even the corner of an
envelope. The publishers of the forth
coming Blue Earth County Gazetteer
are using this latest improved method
OF making pictures throughout the
pictorial parts of their book. The
plates are to be returned to this COM
munity, and they will be valuable
aquisitiOn to be used in various ways
in the future. No county in this state
has such work as this will be, and
we can congratulate ourselves upon
the benefits to be derived from the
labors of the atlas publishers.

BICYCLES TAXED.
ASSESSORS MEET AND AGREE
UPON VALUATIONS.
The Rate on Horses is Lowered, and
on Cattle Raised--Pian0s Raised
and Organs OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
are Photographed.

The assessors of the county held
their annual meeting at the office of
the county auditor Friday and agreed
upon schedule of valuations and Sc
cured their supplies.
The following assessors were pre-
sent, being every one in the county:
Clark Keysor, Mankato; j G. Stree
bel, Medic: John Laurisch, Danville;
j. B. Hayes, Mcpherson; E. j. Rus
sell, LeRay; James Johnson, James
town:C. E. Jones, Mapleton; A. Little,
Beauford, J. w. Cooper, Decoria: Geo.
Hodapp, Mankato; Mic Brules, Lime;
Thos. Howieson, Sterling: Chas. Graf.
Lyra: julius Just, Rapidan: Lewis Il.
Evans, South Bend: Stephen IL.
Brush, Shelby; f. S. Hemingway,
Vernon; H. w. Bixby, Garden City;
w. II. Cole, Lake Crystal; R. ii.
Owens, Judson; August Sulfhen,
Pleasant Mound; Ferdinand Bloede,
Ceresco; Peter Strom, Lincoln: Rees
Evans, Butternut Valley; Stephen R.
Jones, Cambria; III. S. Stoner, Amboy.
The meeting was the best attended
and most enthusiastic ever held in the
county, all of the assessors having
come with their heads full of ideas
upon valuations. There were no eX-
tremists, and it was not difficult to
get together.
Clark Keysor was elected chairman,
and Auditor Gunders secretary.
A law passed by the legislature
this spring adds bicycles and sleighs
to subdivision of "Items of Proper
ty," so that this section now reads:
'The number of wagons, carriages,
bicycles, sleighs or other vehicles, of
whatever kind, and the value
thereof" 1t was decided to
make the average valuation
of each of these S18, and to leave it to
each assessor to use his judgment up
on the assessment of bicycles, as they
differ so much in value.
Some considerable changes were
made in the valuations, as the follow
ing schedule will show:

and that the front of the building
will have to be torn down and replac-
ed. Our informant says that the Odd
Fellows have agreed to stand half of
this expense and the contractors half {.
The expense will probably not be
great, but it illustrates the need of
care in erecting buildings. In this
city several of the old frame build
ings project more or less into the
street. The council some time ago
took steps to secure releases from the
owners of these buildings, but we do
not remember that any releases were
secured. 1t might be well for the
new council to look into the matter.

COULDN'T AGREE.
The Jury Comes in and the U. S.
Court AdjOurnS.

The United States Circuit court adj
journed Friday noon, and the officers
took the afternoon train for st. Pau |.
The jury in the suit OF Justin +
Jones VS.. the Citizens bank of Red
wood Falls went out Thursday after
noon, and remained out all night.
Friday noon it reported that it could
not reach an agreement, and was dis
charged. The case was tried once be-
fore and the jury disagreed, and once
the case was dismissed while in
process of trial, owing to some irregu-
larity. The case will be an expensive
one to all concerned by the time that
it is finished.
This afternoon before leaving the
city, Judge Nelson remarked upon the
growth of the city and the many large
Improvements being made or about
to be begun. He is well pleased with
Mankato and it's prospects for the
future.
