Kellar, Burglar and Jail Breaker, Caught.
A feeling of satisfaction accompanies the
news that Grant Kellar, the burglar, cap
tured at Wenonah by Officer Drummer
while entering the home of Mrs Magill,
and who escaped from Jail by cutting the
iron grating, is again in the tolls. He was
captured Monday night at the home OF
John Carr, the colored man who was i'm
plicated in the same buTglaries, but who
was released by the authorities for reasons
that seemed sufficient to them. Carr is
said to have promised to make every effort
to capture Kellar, and learning he was up
in Pennsylvania, telegraphed him to come
down to Philadelphia He came, and was
arrested at CaTr's house. Carr telegraphed
Sheriff Jones Tuesday morning, who, ac-
eompanied by Deputy Platt, went at once
to Philadelphia to arrange for his transfer
here.
From Sheriff Jones we get the facts Of
Kellar's reeapture. Last week Carr came
to Sheriff Jones and said he had located
Kellar at Shingletown, hamlet in Penn
sylvania, near the York State line, and If
he had some money he could get him to
come to Philadelphia. The Sheriff adj
vanced him SIS. Tuesday morning the
Sheriff received phone call from Carr to
come to his house on Schell street at cnce,
and the Sheriff promised to go up on the
1119 train. With Deputy Platt he
reached Carts house at II. Is, and found it
surrounded by great crowd. There was
an officer inside, but Carr was not at home.
The Sheriff suggested to search the house,
and the detective led the way upstairs. In
a second floor room they found a negro;
going to the third floor the detective
looked in a room but it appeared empty.
The Sheriff went in, and around the corner
of an L stood Kellar 1t was the work of a
moment to clap handouts on him, and lead
him to a police station, then to the City
Hall, where he was given a hearing and
committed to await requisition papers.
This will probably require several days as
they must pass between the Governors of
this state and Pennsylvania.
Kellar arrived in Philadelphia Monday
morning and in "a hours was prisoner
again.
Carr's interest in Kellar's re-capture
probably extended to the $500 reward
which he will claim.

obituary,

MAY EcRETT, aged SO years, died at
the residence Of her father, James Ecrett,
in Mnllica Hill, on Wednesday morning,
July 18th.
The following are lines written on the
death Of
"oUR DEAR May"
Dearest May, you have left us,
Gone to live with God above,
And together with the Angels,
Singing sweetly, God is Love
Oh! how sad we feel to have you
Leave us, Oh! SO suddenly,
And our loss, Oh, who can measure
The deep pangs Of losing thee.
And the pain our dear one suffered,
And the anguish and the tears,
OF the dear ones round the death bed,
OF our May, so young in years.
Darling May, you have left us,
Never to see your face again,
Till at last we're gathered with thee,
Free from sorrow, tears and pain.

and after robbing, attacked Mr.. Davis
daughter He was arrested the following
day, indicted, tried, convicted, sentenced to
nineteen years in State Prison, and taken

cations shall be met. 1t will be seen, by a
reading of the laws quoted above, that the
Board has no right or power to spend more
than the one hundred thousand dollars,
excepting in special instances as above,
without becoming amendable to the law Of
1898.
am, therefore, of the opinion that such
part of this $6SsO, not required to make up
the 100000 appropriated, and not pro-
vided for by law to meet the extraordinary
expenses above named, should remain as a
balance in the hands of the County Collec-
tor, at the close Of the present fiscal year Of
the Board.

Again the heavens wept and the wind
howled on Saturday afternoon, and even
North Woodbury. with their web-footed
tendency refused to waddle in the oozy
mire. The day passed but the crowd stood
still, some in the Wilson rendezvous on
Cooper street. and the Northenders in the
Marcus establishment on North Broad
street, listening to the prophets prophesy
and the wranglers wrangle over the prob
able and improbable outcome, if the sun
would come out, of the scheduled contests.
Such is the way Of the world
Erie will play Good Will the coming
Saturday.
Westville next Saturday. Say, boys,
handle them carefully, remember last year.
The Mantua team, which plays at We
nonah, but is composed of college players
from Phila., think they could make Wood
bury hustle for the victory of game.
