But III just advertise
For wife who my idea meets
So he put an ad. under the head:

Hart Locked Up His wires shoes for Ten
Months His Idea OF Duty.

William Hart, a carpenter, living with his
wife and seven children on the top floor
of the house at 227 East ll3.h street, was
before Magistrate Cornell yesterday in the
Harlem police court accused of preventing
his wife from leaving the house for ten
months by locking up her shoes. Hart
believes that a wife should remain chronic
ally at home and Mrs. Hart has been forced
to agree with him during most Of their
eighteen years of married life.
Two years~ago she got out by jumping
from a window at AIS West 1891 street and
was laid up for some tine afterward in a
hospital. In July last the rumor req ched

months before hitting upon the scheme Of
smuggling a letter by one OF her children

Jail, to investigate.

HUNT MOrNTAIN HIGHWAYMAN.
Posse After Armed and Mounted Outlaw
Who Robbed Pennsylvania Farmer.

TAMAouA, Pa, April l1.-Between ! and 8
O'Clock this morning Jacob Koch, a farmer,
was held up on the mountain between
Lewistown and Tuscarora by a young man,
apparently rs years old. who wore a mask,
a belt filled with cartridges. two revolvers
in holsters and a pair of riding boots. He
levelled a big revolver at Koch and called
upon him to .disgorge.
Koch noticed that the ~highwayman had
a saddled horse tied in a thicket nearby,
and that a big yellow and white bulldog
was guarding it. He handed over the con-
tents of his wallet, $40, The highwayman
thanked him and told him to drive down the
mountain.
Farmer Koch. going to Tuscarora,
alarmed the little town. Ten minutes later,
while the robbery was being discussed at
the inn, a clatter Of hoofs was heard, and
when Elmer Gerber, the innkeeper, and
Henry Weiss rushed out they Jaw a big
horse carrying a mud despatched man
dashing past. ,
A posse was soon organized and followed
the bold rider to the mountains. This
while he vas leading his horse across a
swamp. They opened fire, but he stood
his ground and returned shot for shot,
until he was seen TO fall. He quickly got
upon his feet, however, and made for the
woods, leaving his horse behind.
When the posse arrived at the spot where
the highwayman had stood they found
that when he had fallen several papers and
a letter had dropped from his pocket.
The letter was addressed to Dear Martin. "
1t was dated Alburta, Pa, and was evidently
from the mans sweetheart, as it abounded
in endearing phrases. 1t was unsigned,
The papers contained memoranda, but
nothing that would give a clue to the mans
identity. The posse secured the mountain
all afternoon, but up to late this evening
had not captured their man.
