ROBBED HIS PROSPECTIVE WIFE.
Fred Price Arrested tor a Crime Commit.
ed Year Ago.

Detective Bauer, Ct Wilkes Barre,
made an important arrest Saturday
afternoon in Berwick and landed his
prisoner in Jail at Wilkes Barre. The
fellow is Fred c. Price, a machinist,
formerly Of Lock Haven. He is a
good looking young fellow about "a
years old. Last year he worked in
Lock Haven and boarded with Elmer
Allen. His good looks and dashing
manner soon won the heart of 49,
year old Elizabeth Allen, the boarding
house-keeper's daughter. AS soon as
Price found the girl regarded him
favorably he pressed his suit and
about the middle of November asked
her to be his wife. She consented,
and her parents who thought we'll Of
young Price as an Industrious fellow.
consented to the match. The we'd
ding was arranged to take place early
in January.
On January the father, who is
quite well to do, gave his daughter
$500 to buy her wedding outfit, and
furniture for the house Price said he
would have ready for his bride. The
day following the young girl asked her
lover to go with her and purchase the
furniture, and they went down town
together. He suggested that he had
better carry the money as she might
lose it, so she gave him the $500
without hesitation. They entered a
furniture store and she began selecting
some articles, he making suggestions.
As she was buying parlor suit, he
said suddenly, ooh, there is a man
l want to see, I'll be back in a
moment" "Very well, DEAR" she
replied, "but hurry and help me de-
eide upon this parlor furniture" He
left the store and never returned.
The detectives have been looking for
him. ever since. Price confessed to
the detective and seemed very peni-
tent.

A False Rumor.

A rumor very prevalent through
town is to the effect that the Messrs.
Baer, the President of Reading Rail-
road Iron Company and the other
gentleman from Reading who accom-.
panied him to look over the Montour
l. &. S. Works were representatives of
a party who proposed to institute a
new company, provided the works
mentioned came up to their expecta-
tions. This is an erroneous idea al
together. The gentleman named came
here at the solicitation of the Receiv-
ers of the Phila. & Reading R. R.
company, to investigate the character
of the mills and furnaces and give
their views whether it would pay for
the present company under the aus
pices of the Railroad company to con-
tinue them further in operation. What
ever may be done with the rolling and
pudding mills it is not likely that the
furnaces will ever again be put in
operation They are SO dilapidated
and behind the age in improvement,
that no doubt it would be cheaper to
build new furnaces out and out on the
modern plan than to expend money
On the present ones to make them
efficient producers of pig iron-Dan-
oille hatelligencer.

MYSTERIOUS MURDERS.

Two mysterious murders have oc-
Cured in the borough of Dickson
City, Lackawanna county, botn being
of a peculiar nature. In each instance
an evident attempt was made to con-
ceal the crime by making it appear
that the murdered man was the victim
of a railroad accident. In the first
instance the man killed has not been
identified, but was evidently for
eigner. The body was found in a
culvert, and there were marks on the
throat, which caused the
Coroner's jury to return a verdict that
the man was murdered.
The second crime was committed
Saturday morning shortly after mid.
night. A street car motorman found
alongside the track man terribly
injured and beaten, but yet alive. He
died before medical attendance arriv-
ed. The man was Joseph Terfick, a
Hungarian, who lived with his wife
and four children at Marshwood, on
the Moosic Mountain. The dead
man lay flat upon his back about two
feet from the track with his head
towards the track. His mangled and
bloody left arm lay across his breast.
The right side of the head was bruised
and broken and the nose was crushed.
The dead mans hat lay wrinkled
and dirty about FIVE feet distant, and
five feet further away was mine
sprag, the end of which was stepped
in blood, and little distance away
was large stone spattered with blood.
The inference was that the man was
beaten to death with club and his
body flung by the track. Two hours
before the body was found Terrick
was seen in saloon with Andrew
Grisco and Anthony Butchez. Both
of these men are under surveillance.

TREASURER FOWLER EXPLAINS.

COUNTY TREASURER's OFFICE,
April II, 1895.
Editor COLUMBIAN,
Dear Sir AS the Sentinel has
made demand for the treasurer to
explain why he did not account in
his statement for the SIS, sent to
the commissioners for reporting judg-
ments and mortgages to the common
wealth, in reply have only to say
that it never came into the treasurer's
hands. The treasurer cannot account
for money he does not receive. Since
Mr.. Krickbaum is SO desirous for
other people to explain, will he kindly
explain to the tax payers why he, as
Commissioners Clerk, drew his salary
from nine to eleven months in advance,
when his own statement shows that
the sheep orders were not as good as
cash. Hoping this will fully explain,
l am Yours Respectfully,
J. r. FOWLER, Treasurer.
