Pottsville criminal court yesterday to
answer a charge on oath of Matt. Strozin.
ski. Ali the parties reside in Shenandoah
He keeps saloon on East Lloyd street.
On the night of the 10Th of July, last,
barrel of porter was stolen from the
cellar of the place. On the morning of
July 18TH, Officer Walaitis found
an empty porter keg bearing
Strozinski's private m ark in the yard of
Mezalefsky's prop srty. From this clue
the arrest of all the defendants named
followed, it having been learned that all
of taem had been carousing on the night
of July 10th and morning Of the f7th. One
of the party also furnished clue by in
advertently remarking that it would
have been cheaper to buy a keg
of porter. The case was first re-
turned to the September term of court
and continued to the November and Jan
uary terms owing to the fact that Wis
zewsky jumped his bail and the other
defendants, from time to time, failed to
appear. 1t was finally forced to trial yes
terday, NJ. NJ Burke, Esq, appearing for
the Commonwealth and P. NJ. Dunn, ESQ,
for the defendants. Judge Bechtel re
fused an application to take the case
from the jury and the jury rendered
a verdict finding Joseph Sherzufsky and
Andrew Skrobel guilty of receiving
stolen goods. Skrobel was called to the
bar and sentenced to three months i'm
prisonment, S25 fine and the costs.
Sherzufsky could not be found and a
capias was issued for him. Wise wsky
did not show up at the trial at all and his
whereabouts are unknown. Mazelefsky
was acquitted on the ground that when
allowing the keg to be taken into his
house he did not know it was stolen. The
costs in the case amount to over $780,

ANNUAL REPORTS READY.

The Board of Health held regular
meeting last night and heard reports from
its officers and committees. The Horricks
case was again discussed and the board
concluded to drop the matter until such
time as the people residing in the vicinity
where the nuisance exists are prepared to
give the board some assistance by helpin &
to establish a public nuisance.
Secretary Scanlan reported that there
are three cases of diphtheria and one OF
scarlet fever in the town and during the
past two weeks there were eighteen
deaths.
The member of the board from the
Third ward has not been in attendance at
the meetings since last May Last night
the board declared the seat vacant and
directed the secretary to communicate
with the Borough Council and suggest
that the vacancy be filled.
President Spalding and Secretary Scan
Ian read their reports for the year ending
January 1st, 1895. They were lengthy and
exhaustive, but very interesting. The
Secretary's report gives statistics of cases
of disease with the number and causes OF
death and the number of each nationali y
affected. He devotes some space to the
question of sewerage and recommends
that the borough take it up.
The Presidents report is of particular
interest. 1t is practically an essay on the
sanitary condition of the town and the
most feasible means for Improving it. He
strongly condemn the rookeries and urges
the borough to give the purchase of q
garbage crematory serious consideration
Some space was devoted to condemnation
of the crowding of buildings on lots, and
the President declared that some places
inhabited by human beings are unfit fol
animals.
The reports are to be forwarded to the
State Board of Health, but will first b'
printed for distribution among the people
and will be read before the next meeting
OF the Borough Council.

More Suggestions.

DEAR HERALD AS the columns of
your valuable paper seem to be open for
suggestions relative to available candi-
dates to fill the vacancies that will occur
in the different borough offices this spring,
permit me to take advantage of the same
and name two men for election to the
Borough Council from the Second ward,
men of acknowledged business integrity
and honesty, who are eminently qualified
to fill any position in the gift of the people
of our town, and whose character as bust
ness men and citizens is above reproach
men who are owners of considerable rea
estate and have no relative, or friends, tC
reward. Allow me to place before the
voters of the Second ward the names of Mr.
f. E. Magargle, and Mr.. Frank Schmidt
men who can be elected, who have a hos
of friends and who are legion.

While Robert Painter, of Gilberton
was walking down the mountain side
from Turkey Run to town last evening he
met Polish man who was very much in.
toxicated and heavily laden with bundles.
The mans overcoat was in blaze and
almost half burned away, but he did not
seem to notice it. Mr.. Painter went to
the mans rescue and extinguished the
fire. The Pole sobered up somewhat after
realizing the situation and walked away
in an ugly mood, muttering something
about his pipe, which had evidently been
placed in pocket of the coat while
lighted. Mr. Painter received several
painful burns on his wrists and hands.

OAMDEN'S TRAMP PROBLEM.
Mr.. Thompson Wants the Migrants Boarded
at Four Dollars a Week.

The Camden county Freeholders
INDUCED in their annual discussion on
establishing workhouse for the ac-
commodation Of vagrants wko make
the County Jail their home during the
winter months. The discussion was
brought about by the presentation Of
a bill for $a,I47. so by Sheriff Barrett
for prisoners board during the past
month.
Mr.. Thompson, in discussing the
matter, proposed that the county place
the vagrants in private boarding houses
at 50 per week a man, as it would
save money. The Sheriff receives
$7.5o week board for each vagrant,
and the County Clerk, Justice of the
Peace and Constable all get fee for
each one committed.
The discussions concluded with the
Director being authorized to appoint
commission to dispose Of the ques,
ton.
