THE JURY GETS
DeLUCCA CASE.
Gallucci Had Applied to the
Superior Court For
First Papers.

In the United States court yesrer-
day afternoon Gallucci was called in
rebuttal and asked him if he had not
made application for first papers in
the Superior Court of this county on
October IL, 1900. which was but a
few days before he took out final
papers in the United States court in
this city.
Gallucci testified that he made his
application for first papers on Oc-
tober Is, 1900, and that he was in
company with thirty or forty others
in charge Of DeLucca. Later in
the court DeLucca told the witness
he had no need of first papers, he
was entitled to full papers.
Former Prothonotary Victor B.
Woolley was called and identified
Gallucci's application for first pa
pers.
The defence called John A. Coma
han, deputy prothonotary of this
county, who testified that in 10 90
the Superior Court was not in $685.
sion on october %, when Gallucci re-
ceived his papers in the United
States Court.
Both sides then rested and Judge
Bradford suggested that argument
on law be first made, but there was
no contention over the law. The
defence presented it's prayers, asking
that verdict Of not guilty be given;
that false and reckless swearing does
not constitute false swearing; that
mistaken testimony is not false
swearing. and that the defendant is
not compelled to prove himself in
nocent, but the burden Of proof is
on the government to show him
guilty before verdict of guilty can
be given.
District Attorney Byrne opened
for the government. The question
to be decided, he said, was whether
Alberto Gallucci came here under
the age of IS years, and whether
DeLucca had proper knowledge of
Gallucci's real age.
Mr. Byrnc reviewed the evidence
ana the court and Jury was not here
to encourage careless and reckless
swearing Tor the purpose of making
citizens of the United States.
During the progres of Mr.. Byrne's
address he alluded to the danger Of
illes ally made citizens casting bal
lots, and MIR Whiteman OBJ jected on
the ground that there was nothing
in the testimon. concerning the cleo
tion.
Judge Bradford decided that the
district attorney was within bounds
and Mr.. Byrue proceeded on the
same line.
Former Judge Ball made the open
ing Ior the defence. He said the de.
fence wonId attempt no flights OF ora
tory as had the district attorney.

had shown bv its own witness and

ADJUSTMENTS.
GRAND OPERA HOUSE.
UNDER SOUTHERN SKIES,

Lottie Blair Parker's "Under
Southern Skies proved to be gem
uine success and for three months
attracted very large audiences to the
Theatre Republic in New York.
Oscar Hammerstein's comforta bic
house was crowded to the doors
nightly. The reason for this un-
questionably was to be found in
popular endorsement Of the news
paper commentator which follow
ed the opening, since the most en-
thusiastic criticisms unsupported
could not be responsible for bust
ness 50 extraordinary.
The production represents pict-
ure of Louisiana life in 1875, brim-
full of mirth and melody and mo-
ton.
Leila Croiton, is in love with
Burleiyh Mavor, who, in turn, Is
enamored of her. She is convinced
by an unprncipled sultor, Steve
Daubeney, that she must espouse
him III order to save tho reputation
of the family.
She finally consents to the marri-
age, but, at the last moment, in a
scene that has been bringing eight
cen and twenty curtain calls every
evening she renounces him and re-
turns to the man Of her choice. This
pathetic, ten,lerly sympathetic and
frequently stirring plot, being con-
trasted with the elements of the
humorous and the picturesque,
proves tense and vertile. "Undel
Southern Skies has the additional
merit of containing no unpleasant
line or suggestive situation. 1t is
as clean, as wholesome and as hui

settings are surprisingly beautiful,

TRAIN R0BBER
ON FAST TRAIN.
BaggaSemaSter OYerpoWered by
Robber, But a Search Fails
to Get Any Boodls

Williamsport, Sept. 22.-For the
first time in the history of the Phila
delphia & Erie division of the Penn.
sylvania Railroad an attempt was
made this morning to rob a train
The would-be robber performed
his work with a boldness that
stamped him as professional train
robber and that he did not make
a big haul was doubtless due to a
mistake that resulted in him getting
aboard the wrong train.
The attempted robbery occurred
on the eastbound Buffalo night flyer
while it was running between En-
porium and Remove When the
train stopped at Emporium a man
about 80 years of age, six feet tall
and wearing a dark suit and slouch
hat entered the front coach, which
is divided into smoking and bag
gage apartments. He quietly occu-
pied seat in the smoking apart
ment until the train was passing
Huntley, about four miles west of
Driftwood, shortly after midnight
when, unobserved by the other pas
sengers, most OF whom were asleep,
he tip-toed into the baggage car.
Baggagemaster Whitehouse, of
Renovo who was in charge of the
car was in a STOPPING position, doing
some work. He heard some one en-
ter, but thinking it was one of the
train crew did not look up until he
felt the cold muzzle of a revolver
thrust into his face.
If there are any valuables or
money on this train l want them
and want them quick" said the
desperate. "Holdup your hands OF
l will bore you full of holes. l mean
business and my time is limited.n.
The surprised bagggemaster had
no alternative but to obey the order
to hold up his hands, and he then
told the intruder to help himself
knowing there was little of value in
the car.
Keeping Whitehouse covered with
the revolver the desperate made
hurried but thorough search Of the
car, including the pigeon-holes used
for sorting the mails. After con
vinclng himself that there was no
booty to be secured the man backed
out of the door.
Whitehouse at once teleg1slphed
to Renova and a posse of special
officers were on hand and surround
ed the train when it arrived. The
desperate, however, had either
jumped from the rapidly moving
train before it reached Remove or
escaped unobserved through the
posse.

FIREBUGS IN ESSINGTON.
FRAME HOUSE SATURATED
WITH COAL OIL.

Chester, Pa, Sept. 22.-Essington
people are again excited over an at
tempt to destroy by fire the home
of Mr. and Mrs. George Kleemann,
who conduct a boarding house.
Early yesterday morning one OF the
boarders was awakened by smoke,
which poured into his bedroom win
dow, and an Investigation showed
that the house had been set on fire
from the outside. A bucket brigade
was forme land the flames were ex-
tinguished before much damage was
done.
One. side of the frame house had
been sprinkled with oil and pile Of
newspapers ignited, causing the
flames to spread rapidly. A few
weeks ago a similar attempt was
made to destroy the home of Harry
McCay, but the fire was discovered
in time to frustrate the the plan Of
the tirebug. County Detective Berry
is working on the case.
The readers OF this paper will ba
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science haa
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh cure
is the only positive cure now known
to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease, re.

THE Democrats votes against the
antitrust bills before Congress two
years ago have come up in this
campaign to confound them. When
the Republicans just before the be-
ginning of the campaign of 1909,
proposed an antitrust amendment
to the constitution, the Democrats
opposed it by q virtually solid vote
The House of Representatives on
June l, 1900, by a vote Of l54 to
1872, passed a joint resolution for
the submission of an antitrust con-
stitutional amendment to the peo-
pie, but this was not the needed
two-thirds, and theresolution failed.
Every Republican, except two voted
for the resolution. Every Demo
crat except one voted against the
resolution.
Here was a direct exhibition Of
the position of the Republicans and
the Democrats on the question Of
the regulation of the trusts. The
Republicans were in favor Of regu-
lation. TheDemocrats were against
it. They were warned that this
record would come up i'll the future
to bother them. 1t is botherlng
them very seriously today. When
even Democrat prates about his
hostility to the trusts, he is con-
fronted with the vote of his party
in the summer of 1860 against u
measure designed to effectively curb
the trusts.
This was not the only case IN
which the Democrats in recent
times opposed legislation intended
to bring the trusts under govern
mental control. The Republicans
tried to accomplish this by act Of
Congress, but here, too, they were
hampered by the Democrats. Every
Republican President since the trusts
have come into existence has taken
ground in favor Of their regulation.
President Roosevelt di this III his
message last December to Congress
and in many addresses since then.
The only act ever placed on the
national statute book against the
trusts, was passed by 4 Republican
Congress in 1890 and signed by a
Republican President, Gen. llarri-
son. The Democrats record in op-
position to trust legislation will turn
hundreds of thousands Of votes
against their party i'll coming Presl-
Dental election.
