SAYS HOLLISTER
KEPT The MONEY
Justice of the Peace and Leading
Citizen Of Hollisterville Held
Under Bail for Hearing.

Justice of the Peace 1Irastus B. Hol-
lister, of Holisterville, Wayne county,
was arrested yesterday on the charge
Of embezzling $500, while serving as the
executor of the estate of the late Cath
crime Hochren. of this county
The information for his arrest was
sworn out before Alderman Kasson by
Caspar Hochrein, of 23l Lafayette
street. 1t sets forth that he is one of
the heirs of the late Catherine Hoch-
death her will was drawn up by Mr..
Tollster and that he was named as
her executor.
1t further sets forth that on March
/, 1898, while acting as executor of the
estate, Mr.. Hollister was paid a large
sum of money by William Fitzsim-
mons. $500 Of which was to be used in
paying certain debts, the balance to re-
vert to the heirs. The information al
leges that the $500 was retained and
embezzled by Mr.. Hollister and that he
used it for his own purposes.
Mr.. Hollster is one of the leading
citizens Of Hollistervile, and has been
a justice of the peace there for a num-
Der of years. The town is named after
his family.
He was walking along Washington
avenue, when Constable Ira Mitchell
stepped up to him and placed him
under arrest. The old man was very
much surprised, but came willingly up
to the alderman's Office and demanded
an immediate hearing.
The prosecutor, who was represented
by Attorney George NJ. Watson, was
not prepared for an immediate hear
ing, inasmuch as all the witnesses re-
side in Wayne county. The alderman
therefore held the accused in $500 bail
for a hearing at II p m. next Wednes-
day.

WORK PRISONERS
HAVE DONE SO FAR
Address by A. B. Dunning Before
the Engineers Club OH the Utili-
zation of Prison Labor.

AT last nights meeting of the Enri-
neers' club in the Board of Trade
building. Supervising Engineer OF the
Prison Board n. Il. Dunning gave all
interesting address on the subject Of
THE Utilization of Prison Labor" He
gave Il summary OF the workings of
prison labor in a number of states of
the Union and quoted the opinions
of prominent authorities on prison
work.
He cited the law on the question,
telling of the act which passed the
legislature April 20. 1899, authorizing
the employment of male prisoners at
iails and work houses and penalizing
I'LL attempts at ESCAPE.
In Lackawanna county prison labor
was first utilized on the public roads
May l. 1900, and has continued up to
the present time. Mr.. Dunning then
gave the following figures of the work
done in the county: In May, June
and July, 1850 feet of tcford macada-
mized road, twenty feet in width. was
laid on the Newton turnpike; 800 feet
of dirt road was built on Jackson
street and for two miles of the New
ton turnpike stones We're picked up,
Taking it altogether the work of tn,
toford road was 4S cents per square
yard.
During August, September October
and November roads Were repaired in
North Scranton and Dunmore. One
and three hundredths miles of an aver
age width of thirty feet We're repaired
at cost of about 6la cents per square
yard. This road contained bitches
from TWO to four feet deep and was
entirely unsafe for traffic. Portion of
the work done was on electric avenue,
leading to Forest Hill cemetery.
At the conclusion of the address the
following resolutions We're adopted by
the club:
Resolved, That we congratulate the prison
board OF l.achawanna county upon the success
that has been attained by the employment ot
prisoners upon the roads and express our wishes
10 encourage them in the further extension ~
the system, both ior the good of prisoners and
the communities in which such prisoners arc
held.

Laughab1e Runaway.

Two ladies driving up Wooster
street yesterday afternoon had quite a
lively experience and one that was
very laughable after the fright was ov-
er and it was discovered that no one
was hurt.
Just before reaching Second street
they met man riding a wheel and
carrying two large paint cans in one
hand. Having only one hand free with
which to manipulate the handle bars
the man could not avoid the accident
which befell him and threw his wheel
against the buggy. He was thrown
from the bicycle and alighted in the
buggy with the ladies, losing one
paint can in transit. The rattle OF
the can on the bricks, frightened the
horse, which started UP Wooster on
the run, taking buggy, ladies, man ant
paint can. all at merry rate of speed
The man fortunately was possessed oi
presence of mind enough to grab the
reins and stopped the horse on the hill
between Third and Fourth streets.
After seeing that no one was hurI
and no injury had been done to buggy
or horse, the man went back to the
place of beginning to find his wheeI
and the other paint can.

The Politician.

Washington, June 22-Hundreds
OF delegates to the Philadelphia con-
yenton are returning to their homes
by way of Washington, in order that
they may personally congratulate
President Mckinley on his ranomina-
ton, and assure him of the enthuslas-
tic support presaged by the harmony
OF the convention and the splendid
ticket and platform of the party. They
are all bubbling over with enthusiasm
and confidence that the success OF the
party will be greater this year than it
was four years ago. Mckinley and
Roosevelt make yote-getting ticket
Enthusiasm aside, and view strictly
from a business and patriotic point,
the Republican National platform is
one of the greatest, if not the greatest,
ever adopted by any political party.
The patriotic achievements of the Nc
Kinley administration, not surpassed
by those of any administration in our
history, would alone have made a
grand platform. But the Republican
party never contents itself with
plaudits for its past achievements. 1t
is party OF constructive action, there
by differing radically from its oppon-
ents, and in the platform points out
important question now before the
public. There is no straddling, no
evasion. 1t is a flat-footed declaration
OF all the principles for which the Re-
publican party stands, and II patriot
ism controlled all votes it would re-
eeive the support of nine-tenths Of the
voters of the country in November;
but, OF course, it will not appeal to
those who vote the Democratic ticket
because their fathers and grandfath-
ers did. Nothing can change that class
of voters; they would vote for yell
low dog II it were on their partys
ticket.
President Mckinley has ample au-
thority to use so much OF the army
and navy Of the United States as may
be necessary to protect the interests OF
America and Americans in China
without calling an extra session OF
Congress, and he is now doing 1t.
Therewill be no extra session OF Con-
gress reports to the contrary notwith-
standing The United States will fur
nish It's quota Of men and war ships

other great civilized nations in punish
