A SERIOUS CHARGE.
Andy cOsten Charged with Assault TO
RaDe on Miss Pauline Law. Both OF
Ardmoru-costen ia jail.

Last night the news OF an at
tempted criminal assault at
Berwyn upon Miss Pauline Law,
daughter of our esteemed towns
man, Rev. n. L. Law, by An
drew Costen. reached the city
and shocked our people, both
parties being we'll and favor
ably known here.
The young lady being Il uni
versal fayorite in Ardmore's
society.
Costen, who is now in Jail, is
a carpenter by trade. and is
also known to the majority of
our people as a young man of
sober, straightforward habits,
and was held in high esteem by
many friends here.
From what can be learned of
the assault it seems that Cos
ten had been enjoying the
scenes at the Berwyn picnic
Thursday, as also had Miss
Law, towards nightfall the two
went buggy riding, coming
about three miles on the Ard
more and Berwyn road. when
they turned back to Berwyn.
A short distance from the
latter place the road forks, the
driver took the wrong road, his
attention was called to the fact
by the young lady, when she
was informed that he knew it,
indecent proposals. were then
made to the young lady, coupled
with an exercise of force.
The young lady, fighting with
all power. jumped from the
buggy, screaming at the pitch
of her voice. fortunately her
cries were heard and assistance
reached her before violence
was done.
In the meantime Costen had
also jumped from his buggy
and was running after the now
thoroughly affrightened girl.
Mr.. Ben Arnold, we believe,
was the gentleman's name who
went to the rescue.
Such in substance is the
nature of the case told the
reporter by Posseman Buck
Garrett, who cleaned his in
formation from the young lady,
and who later made the arrest
of Costen and brought him
here to Jail.
We are informed that the
affair caused a great sensation
III Berwyn when the facts be-
came known, and it was fortu-
nate for Costen that the popu-
lace did not get their hands on
him.
Costen, it is said, had been
drinking n good deal yesterday.
Commissioner Walcott will
make an investigation of the
case Monday.
LATER-Mr. Costen was re-
leased this afternoon on bond
of 500 for his appearance when
case is called.

TWO DARING LEAPS.
Striking Indiana Coal Miner Per-
forms Foolhardy Feats

Clinton. Ind, Aug. Hugh White,
striking coal miner from Caseyville,
Parke county, has entered the ranks of
bridge jumpers by performing two fool
hardy featS this morning.
While talking with some friends in
this city the question of bridge jumping
came up. White, IN a bantering way,
said he could easily make the jump
from the railroad bridge to the water,
a distance of 100 feet. This brought
jeers from his companions, and Just
to show that he was game" White
walked out on the bridge and made the
leap. He did rot even remove his
heavy "hOb-nailed' bank shoes. He
landed safely and swan to the shore,
a distance of 80 yards.
Without stopping to remove his shoes
or clothing, dripping with water and
heavy as lead, he walked back on the
bridge, climbed to the extreme top, and
made another leap, head first, and suf-
fered no injury.
His success has emboldened him to
continue his exhibition for pay. His
first appearance as a professor will
be in this city on the 18th and goth of
August, he having been enga ged by the
committees of the soldiers reunion and
old settlers meeting for two leaps from
the bridge each day. He is to receive
good pay for his daring and will prob
ably not return to mining.

WHERE CAN THE MILLION
ATRE COP

The way of the millionaire seems des-
tined to prove a hard one to travel
Indications point to the approach or a
time when he will not have where to
Law his head undisturbed by the rapa-
cious tax collector.
For many years past it has been the
custom of the owners of a large portion
of the wealth of the country to reside
in the rural and suburban districts,
while doing business in New. York City,
the object being to escape municipal
taxation Tarrytown had become a fav-
orite place of residence for the heads of
great corporations, trusts and syndi-
Gates but it is so no longer.
Among this class is Mr.. VIM. Rookie
Teller, of standard oil notoriety- When
Mr.. Rockefeller first began his effort to
avoid bearing his just proportion of the
public burden he located at Greenwich,
Conn. This was eight years ago.
The assessors of Gree2fwich appeared
to have the faculty Of recognizing
good thing when they saw it and they
bounced down on the standard oil mag
nate with the result that he Sold ont and
removed to TarrytOwn. He purchased
property at a cost of SIPS, 900 and ex-
pended according to his own statement
$3.50, 900 in improvements.
The assessors of Tarrytown evidently
have an exalted idea of the value of the
surroundings, for two years ago they
put down the Rockefeller property at
81 100000 This sum was objected to,
but when last year the valuation was
raised to 81, 533. sos, Mr.. Rockefeller
concluded the time had arrived to move
again and accordingly he has author
ICED his agent to offer the property for
sale for $350,000
The citizens of Tarrytown laugh at
this and profess to believe that the
standard oil magnate is joking. Mean
while the assessors dor't come down
dollar.
The Rockefeller case is only a sample
and there is a number of other million
aires in the same boat, so many in fact
that the assessed valuation of Mount
Pleasant township has been increased
$40 00O, 900 in one year.
If it has come to this that there is no
where in this country that the Rookie
fellers, the Goulds, the Vanderbilts, and
others of their class can go to escape
the tax collector it will not be surpris-
ing if more of them follow the ex-
ample of Mr.. William Waldorf Astor
and flee to England or some other for
eign country.
Fortunately they cannot take their
houses nor their land with them.
