A TROUBLESOME CHECK.
II Bobbed Up After IA Disappearance OF
over Five Years

William Kimmel is defendant in a civil
suit brought at Pottsville in which the
Edison General Electric Company is plaintiff.
The trial will involve tho attendance of
several prominent residents Of town as wit.
nesses, among them p. J. Gaughan p. J.
Ferguson, f. B. Hunter T. J. Higgins and
others. S. G. NJ. Hollopeter represents the
plaintiff and NJ. NJ. Burke the defendant.
The facts Of the case are apparently very
much complicated. 1t appears that several
years ago, when the construction of electric
railways in town was first projected, Mr..
kimmel became interested with John +.
Finney and several other residents of town
in promoting the undertaking. Certificates
of stock were issued and negotiations were
opened with the Edison Company On these
negotiations Mr.. Kimmel was induced to
give the company his check as an evidence Of
good faith. Subsequently the late Judge
Sadler Of Carlisle, become interested in the
project but would not take hold of it until
the certificates of stock already issued were
recalled. Mr. Kimmel was not oppos ed to
this, but wanted to know who would take
care of the check he had given the Edison
Company. He could not get it back and
under the new project, with the certificates
OF stock recalled and the money refunded
he would have no funds but his own Oh hand
with which to pay the check. Mr. Kimmel
says Mr.. Finney assured him that the check
would be cared for in such manner that
there would be no personal responsibility Oh
the formers shoulders, and Mr. Kimmel
proceeded to recall the certificates
of stock and refund the money the people
had paid on them. Nothing more was
thought of the check. In fact, Mr.. Kimmel
gave it no more attention after the change
was made than he would have done had he
personally torn up the check and cast the
pieces to the winds Bot to his great surprise
over five years later the Edison company
produced the check and made demand for
payment Of it upon Mr.. Kimmel He was as
much astOundod as the Spanish Admiral at
Manila was when he viewed his fleet after
Dewey got through with it. Mr. Kimmel,
of course, declined to meet the check and the
suit followed. A jury is now to say whether
or not the check shall be paid. The case was
called this morning, but owing to the absence
Of Mr.. Finney, went over until the next
term of court.

How He LOST HIS CHARM.-"l 10: t
a valuable Knights of Pythias charm in
such curious manner recently" said
a travelling man of this city, THAT tbs

waiting for my train, when decent
looking chap approached and asked mt
whether l would remove cindsr from
his eye. He seemed to be in great
pain, and 1 stepped with him 10 light
and made an examination. / could find
nothing and he thanked me for trying
and walked of. was on the outgoing

had disappeared and from the looks OF
the link would say it had been cut oil

Job was done when both my hands and
all my attention was occupied in look
ing for the cinder, and the only thing
that surprises me is that the fellow
didn't take my watch, too, The charm

stranger who tries to work that little
game on me will get something larger
than cinder in his eve, right away. y
