because of his steady refusal to an
swer the questions put to him in court
concerning the expenditure of money in
the elections of 1897, School Controller
John Gibbons, of Scranton, has been
sentenced to jail by Judge Archibald, to
stay until he shall make reply. He is
held to be in contempt of court. He
was remanded to the sheriff's custody.
but later released on bail until Judge
Smith, of the superior court, will decide
an application for writ of habeas cor
pus, the case having gone to that court
on certiication as soon as Judge Arch
bald had sentenced Mr.. Gibbons.
Gibbons is prominent in Lackawanna
Democratic politics, and was formerly
city treasurer. He is superintendent of
Congressman Connell's mines, and
through him it is hoped to ascertain the
part taken by the congressman in the
defeat of William Langstatf, the only
Republican who was defeated in the
county that year. The contest proceed
ngs have been in progress over a year,
and the bill OF costs to the county thus
far is over $25, 900.

Masked Men Rob u Peddler.

Three masked men bound and gagged
Frank Polechla, German peddler, and
his wife, at their home in Maltby early
Monday morning and made off with Sl27.
The robbery followed Il resolution pas
Sed by the German society to which
Polechla belongs, that he should with
draw the society .money from the bank
in order to make some purchases. For
tunately, he did not get the money on
Saturday and only lost his own small
savings.
He was awakened by unusual noises
in the barn about . o'clock in the morn
ing, and went out to investigate. AS he
stepped outside he was seized by two
men, while third thrust pistol in his
face. They told him he could save his
life by telling them where his money
was hidden, but he would not. Then
they bound and gagged him and entered
the house.
His wife, aroused by the noise they
made, has just descended the stairs when
the men seized her and threatened to
cut her throat if she did not tell them
where the money was. With knife
pricking her neck she showed them her
husbands savings in false bottom of
"a trunk. After getting the money they
bound and choloformed her.
Two hours later her mother, awaken
ed by the cries of her grandchild, went
down stairs and found the child sobbing
some time before the woman regained
her senses, and her first thought was for
her husband. He was found lying help
less in the snow near the barn, nearly
dead from cold.

On Monday afternoon Miss Mary

was murdered, was brought to the
county seat in charge of County Detec-

ed to identify, if possible, man suspect
ed of completely in the deed and who is
now in custody. The woman did posi-
lively identify the suspect as one of the
men who murdered CorcUan. The au-
thorities will not disclose his name for
the present on the plea that it would
interfere with the successful prosecu-
tion of the case and the arrest of others
Miss Monahan has since denied that
she identified the man and says she
could not identify any of Corcoran's as

Making Children Happy.

This is a merry week for the little
ones who reside in the Cross Creek Coal
Company's towns. Christmas week to
them has the usual joy that it has for
other children, with the additional
pleasure Of being remembered substan-
italy by Mrs. E. b. Coke. The custom
OF distributing useful Christmas gifts
among the children of this company'S
towns was begun many years ago, and,
instead Of interest becoming lessened,
it increases as each Christmas time
comes around, and never was the antici-
patton OF pleasure greater among these
children than it is in 1898.
During the present week "Coxe's
Christmas tree" has held the unrivaled
attention of the children. By tomorrow
evening all the towns where employees
of the Coke companies live will have
been visited, and thousands of little ones
will be happier than it is possible for
their parents to make them. The gifts
comprise useful toys, articles of wearing
apparel, etc, and bag of candy for
every child.
Eckley B. Coke, Jr.. has also taken
an interest this year in the Christmas
trees and has furnished a suitable enter
tainment to the children of every town.
The exhibitions were indeed treats to
hundreds of the tots.
In 1897 over 1000 children were sup
piled with gifts from the Coke ladies.
This year, it is expected, the number
will be larger, as the populations of the
mining towns are greater now than a

Peculiar Verdict in IL Court Case.

A peculiar verdict was rendered in
Lnzerne court on Tuesday in the case
of Lenardo Minero against andre Gala
brino, both OF Hazleton. The charge
was larceny and the testimony was that
Minero lost roll of money which Gala
brino said he found and which he would
not give up. The verdict was: "We
find the defendant not guilty, but at the
same time we believe he has the prosecu-
tors money" Judge Lynch accepted the
verdict, stating at the time that it was
the only one which could be rendered
owing to the peculiar circumstances
surrounding the case. There was no
evidence to show that Calabrino intend
ed keeping the money.

Millionaire Edward Balm, whose death
was announced the other day, was ia
miliarly known as "the man who never
slept" and it is doubtful if another case
like his exists. 1t is virtually fact
that for the last sixteen years he did
not sleep an hour in his bed. Constant
devotion to business was the original
cause of his sleeplessness, he having
been known to remain in his factory up
to sixteen years ago as late as 4 and 5
o'clock in the morning, and when he
would seek rest he found it impossible to
sleep.
For the greater part of the past ten
years it was his custom to take daily
trips to Chicago from his home in Wis
consin to pass the time away, in street
car riding and driving during the day.
and at night he was always to be found
either at IA theatre or billiard hall, which
were the only places he was able to get
a short nap, the music at the theatres
and the clicking of billiard balls alone
atfording him short spells Of repose.
The maps gave him sufficient rest, as he
always appeared bright and fresh, and
was in his seventy-iifth year when
apoplexy killed him.

The Mackeysburg school house in
Cass township, located a few miles from
Pottsvlle, in the Hecschersvile valley,
was blown up by dynamite on Sunday
night last. Several sticks of the eX-
plosive were discharged beneath the
building. The force of the shock by the
explosive was terrific, SCATTERING por-
tions of the building into splinters.
Three young men, residents of the vcin-
ity, Patrick Wade, Edward Murphy and
Michael Daley, who were seated in the
school building, were tossed with terrible
force among the furniture. Wade is seri-
ously injured and will be permanen tly
disfgured by being struck with pieces OF
the slate bo ard, which were blown to
every portion of the room. Some pieces
were lodged in the opposite WALL thirty
feet away. Framing timbers were cut
in twain, as if they wore mere laths.
Daley and Murphy were also injured by
the flying missiles.
The school building was erected about
ten years ago. 1t is of frame, and but
one-story high, and it is now total ruin.
A reward has been offered for the arrest
of the guilty parties.

The Freeland correspondent of the
Hazleton Sentinel writes to his paper as
follows: 1.-The ID. s. & S. Railroad Com
pany, we understand, are about to re-
move the third brakeman from every
train running to Perth Amboy. This
will be unpleasant news for the men and
it will affect at least eight to ten. 1t is
not known as yet what the railroad
magnates intend doing towards the
proper and safe conveyance of their
trains down the Weatherly hill, which
is very steep grade and requires the
conductor and flagman on hand brakes
and oftentimes the engineer to use his
air brake in order to insure safety. AL
though the trains are very small, only
tfty-five cars, two men ought to be able
to handle them on heavy grades, and
every car holding from % to 90 tons of
coal. AT any rate one brakeman will
have to go from every crew"
