day Chas Jones was arrested in Web

Princeton. Jones was indicted at the

sault on woman, and Hewitt How
ton, the man killed, was the principal
witness for the Commonwealth. He
is held on the charge in the indict.
ment and is also suspected of having
been implicated in the murder Of

A Small Morning Blaze.

Saturday morning the cabin OF
Mary Dulin, COL, situated on Liberty
street, caught on fire and was soon re-
duced to ashes. The fire department
was promptly on hand, but could not
save the house as it was in flames
when they arrived. The fire was
caused by pouring coal oil over the
wood in the CRATE and touching a
match to same, this causing a fash,
which caught the ceiling. The loss
is small.
