Judge White Censured.

The supreme court on Monday handed
down an opinion dismissing a mandamus
on Judge Harry White, of Indiana county.
Fleming Park, cashier of the West Phila-
delphia bank, had a suit pending against
Judge White, and asked him to certify it
to the Cambria county court for trial at
Ebensburg. This he promised to do, but
did not, and finally, it is stated, refused to
grant the request.
After the mandamus proceedings had
been Instituted the transfer to Cambria
county was made, and because of this the
supreme court dismissed the rule, but put
the costs on the plaintiff. The opinion
says:
ut was the duty of the respondent to
certify this to Judge A. V. Barker. This
duty was mandatory, and required no ex-
ercse of deliberation. There was nothing
to excuse the delay"
The case which has got Judge White be-
fore the supreme court is an interesting
one. Several years ago Thomas White,
his son, went into business in Chicago
with u Young man named Camp, also of
Indiana county. The judge indorsed for
them to the amount o: 5000. The paper
was negotiated through the West Phila-
delphia bank, which several months ago
asked the judge to settle. He refused.

Detective at Work.

a Philadelphia firm sent detective TO
Indiana last week to investigate some ir-
regularities of a certain travelling agent
engaged by them. 1t seems that dress
goods etc. were continually missing and
suspicion pointed toward the smart COM
mercial agent who had girl in Indiana,
to whom he was paying some attention.
The young lady lives across the Two Lick
but before leaving town for her home she
took the dress goods TO down town dress
maker and ordered a dress made When
an elderly man, with straw hat, appear
ed and asked for the dress, the dressmaker
replied it was not finished, "Well, the old
man said, / want to get another like it just
give me piece of the goods" and when
the goods was handed him he replied
that's the stuffy,," and authorized the
lady to hold that dress until further or
derS. OF course no blame is attached to
the young lady who supposed the goods
were honestly secured but the young man
will likely get another job, cheat some
other firm and fool some other girl

Grabhed The Dallara.

One of the most daring robberies ever
heard of in this locality was committed on
the Point, Saturday, in the presence of
over 600 people. But it was only owing
to the presence of so many people that the
culprit got away.
Shortly after O'Clock a young man ap-
parentIy about "a years of age and wear
ing a dark suit and black hat with light
moustache edged his way through the
large crowd and took position beside the
stand on which the ticket seller for the
side show was at work. Dollars galore
lay on the stand in front of the crowd,
while halves, quarters, dimes and nickles
were stacked up alongside.
Quick as flash the Young man raised
both hands and before anyone could stop
him he had grabbed double handful of
the dollars and was off in the crowd.
Everythidg was done so quickly that the
crowd was almost struck dumb with
amaZement.
In few minutes a search was being in
stitnted for the thief but he evidently did
not run far and probably stopped in the
centre of the crowd after being lost to
view.
1t is thought that the Young man Sc
cured about $50. The ticket seller suffers
the Ioss-Johnstol0n Democrat.

Harrisburg October 13.-This afternoon
Judge Simonton handed down an opinion
declaring invalid the certificates OF EomI-
nation of Josiah ID. Hicks and Francis j.
Kooser. who objected to each others GER
tifcate in the Twentieth congressional
district. 1t will be recalled that Hicks
was nominated by the participation of
State Treasurer Haywood as an additional
conferee.
The court decides that Kooser was nomi-
mated by a minority of the conference and
therefore his certificate is invalid. and that
in the case of Hicks the confereeS had no
authority to delegate their powers as con-
fereeS to an additional couferee. Both
have filed nomination papers.
There is no principle of law nor any
rule or custom in the Republican party
nomination il any view which could be
taken of the facts in this case could be
made by minority of the legal con-
ferees.''
The court holds that the introduction OF
of Benjamin Haywood into the conference
as a member, with the power to cast four
votes, was illegal and in violation ot the
rules and customs of the Republican
party in the congressional district. The
court says: By the rules and usages of
the party. when there is a candidate nomi-
mated at a county primary for any district
office, he has the right to select the con-
ferees from that county and the number is
fixed at three for each county. There is
no rule or accepted custom which provides
for the appointment of conferees in any
other way for increasing the number OF
conferees, either by a vote of the confer
ence or otherwise"
This decision will make free for all
fight among the Republicans with no can
didate for congress in the Republican COL
umn. MeSsrs. Hicks, of Blair; Thropp, oi
Bedford, and koosier of Somerset, have
each fled nomination papers, and their
respective names will be on the ballot. but
neither of them in the Republican column.
1t looks very much as if the next congress-
man from this district might be Demo
crat, and his name X. c. Mcnamara, from
Bedford.
