TO REPLACE CON-

The chances for new Armory in
this city will be exceedingly bright
should the matter of State Armories
be taken up at the next meeting of the
Legislature. That a bill will be passed
providing for their erection seems be :
yond doubt. The guardsmen are do
ing all in their power to have the bill
passed and they are backed by the
press and many people of influence
everywhere. Captain J. Beaver Gear

up and Adjutant General Stewart out.

larger cities in which the Armories
are more adequate would not receive

Judge Savidge'S View.

Too much praise can not be given
Judge Savidge's view of the right way
to treat boy offenders who, though
bad, may not be incorrigible. He dis
played oommendable discrimination,
and probable corrective leniency, in the
treatment Of two Shamokin youths by
suspending sentence after their oonvic-
tion for theft. on condition that they
reimburse the party from whom they
had stolen. The usual way Of treating 8
such cases is to lock young offenders
up among hardened criminals wher D
they encounter the danger of beoomt |
ing as bad as their prison associates.
In the case Of the two boys mention-
ed, who have been given the chance to
make amends without being branded
as felonious convicts, IL there is any
good in them they will appreciate the
Judges lenienoy and try to live bet
ter lives. It is wise and charitable
course to give every young offender an
opportunity to redeem himself. II he
fails to take advantage of his oppor-
tunity then it will be time to send him
to jRil.

Messrs. Eulings and Twigley arrived
ct 5 100 yesterday morning. and after a
trip to Edgewood Park drove to Sun
bury over the proposed route with Mr..
Kulp.
There is soon to be built a trolley
line which with two short connections
already projected, will enable pas
senger to travel from Forest City to
Philadelphia by trolley and third rail,
a distance of more than 200 miles.
Application has been made for a
charter for trolley line by the Tam.
aqua Traction Company, to run be-
tween Tamaqua and Mahanoy City,
which will then complete a line be-
tween Shamokin and Philadelphia,
with the exception of short distance
between Slatington and Lehighton,
which, it is expected. will be built as
soon as the Tamaqua Mahanoy City
line is completed.
1t is then expected that the Lehigh
Traction Company will extend it's line
from McAdoo to Delano. thus complet-
ing the electric link between Forest
City and Philadelphia, via Mauch

To. Save Money for County.I

Prominent taxpayers Of Northumber
land county are discussing the ques-
tion Of requesting the judges of the
courts of that county to make an order
enforcing to tho letter. the law rela-
tive to discharging under the insolv
ENJOY aot.
This is one Of the most important
departures Of the court, as it means no
end Of hard work for the lawyers,
whose clients have been eaddled with
the costs. and it will practically bar
two.thirds Of the litigants who in the
past have taken advantage of the law
to escape paying.
The custom has been for attorneys,
as soon as the client has been sentenc.
ed to pay the costs. to go into court
and ask for rule to show cause why
he should not be discharged from ous-
tody under the insolvency act The
rule was granted. and the applicant
given his freedom pending its disposi-
tion. The attorney would straiRhtway
60 to tho nearest waste basket and de-
posit the papers and right there and
then the matter ended.
This proceeding has become so far.
oial to the taxpayers that the judges
will be asked to issue an order similar
to Luzerne county. To get a client
discharged this would mean endless
worry and almost as much red tape as
looking for governments pension. It
Is not too much to say that the maj.
ority Of the attorneys. rather than 80
all the rounds, would induce their
clients to borrow the money and pay
the costs, 81. It is by far the easier way
out Of the matter.
The applicant under the order first
made deed Of assignment to credit.
or or creditors in his or her possession
and In criminal cases the county will
be the creditor. Then applicants must
be appointed to appraise his or her
valuables, and they in turn will file a
schedule of the applicants assets and
liabilities. After all this has been
done. rule will be granted by the
court. In the papers filed must also
be an oath from the applicant that ev.
erything has been assigned to his cred
itors aud also a number OF other forms
that must be filled out.

Head Not Unidentified.

Although the missing head of the
body of the man murdered near lick
ory Ridge has been found it has not
been identified and the mystery and
horrible murder IS as far from being
solved as ever. All day Wednesday
hundreds of people viewed the head,
but not one could be found who re-
cognized who the man was. The head
is in good state Of preservation due
to its being wrapped in the man 8
clothing AMI it will be kept several
days before being buried in an effort
to learn who the man was who met
such terrible death.
Spurred on by the reward offered by
the Northumberland County Commits.
sioners and the finding of the head,
officers are searching the woods in the
looality where the head and body we're
found in order to find some clue which
will eventually lead to the arrest and
conviction Of the guilty party or part.
les. r
When the report was circulated that
the head was that Of an Italian many
Italians went to the undertaking est
ablishment and looked at the man e
head. but none were found who ooul Id
identify the murdered man. James
Ohristiano. the intelligent leader of
the Italians in Northum berland coun-
ty, after viewing the head stated that
in his opinion he was firm in the be-
lief that the man was not an Italian
and that he was not foreigner.
The report circulated and published
in the city papers that the man had
been identified and that a number of
arrests had been made is untrue in
every particular.
A story was circulated Wednesday
afternoon that the murdered man was
the victim of an Italian secret society
and that although recognized by sever
al of his fellow country men they did
not dare. under penalty of death, re-
veal his identity. This story ia not
generally believed and is denied in
strong terms by the members of the
Italian colony.

FRACTURED
his SKULL

Harry H. Exley, chief of detectives
with the John Robin sons ten big
shows. which frequently gives a per-
formance in Danville, is at present
staying in Sunbury recovering from
fractured skull which injury he receiv-
ed while with the circus at Bruns-
wick, Georgia, several weeks ago.
When the cirous train arrived at
Brunswick. Mr.. Exley was one of the
first persons to leave the train as was
his usual custom, and just as he step
ped from the car to the ground bur-
ly negro quickly picked up brick
and hurting it with all the strength at
his command struck Exley terrible
blow near the left temple rendering
him unconscious. Turning, the negro
started to run and made good his es-
cape. but the men under Mr.. Exley
who had witnessed thu assault jumped
from the train, drew their revolvers
and literally filed the negro full OF
bullets, killing him instantly.
The shooting caused great excite.
ment and in short time large crowd
assembled. Brunswick police officers
then identified the negro as very de.
sperate character and one who was
badly wanted to answer to several SER
ious charges. It was the general be.
lief that the negro thought that Exley
was an officer trying to- capture him
and in order to escape hurled the
brick.
It was at once seen that Exley was
in a very critical condition and he was
hurried to the hospital. After an ex'
animation by the hospital physicians
it was found that the injured man
had suffered severe fracture of the
skull and he was not expected to re-
cover. An operation was decided up
on In an effort to try and save his life
and q olot Of blood and fragments of
bone removed which we're pressing on
the brain and a silver plate was in
serted. Hovering between life and
death for some time Exley recovered
consciousness and his condition took 9
turn for the better. He was then re-.
moved TO his home at Pittsburg. but
physicians told him to leave the city
and seek some more quiet place for
rest. Taking fancy to Sunbury wher
with the oirous there he decided that
this was the place to come to complete
his recovery. The wound in his head
has not yet entirely healed and he will
alwaye carry an ugly scar.
While with the Robinson oirous las
season Exley captured three counter
feiters at Hazleton and a murderer al
Columbia. He is thinking Of opening
q detective agency in Sudbury.

Thirteen Snow Storms.

We are to have just thirteen snow
storms this winter according to an old
rule. The first fall of snow occurred
on the thirteenth of the month and
the date of the event is the total num-
ber Of storms that will come during
the winter. The old hoodoo number
13,is figuring prominently in this con-
nection as the second snow storm
which came Saturday. the 26th, was
just thirteen days later. Last year the
first snow storm came on the 30th of
November and there we're just thirty
snow storms during the winter. Ap-
parently there is something in the old
rule.
