Crowd GOT Idea That He Was a
Thief and He Ran Until Con-
stable Caught Him.
IUNKMAN was COMPLAINANT

The police had wild goose chase
Saturday night after youths from
Elizabethport and this city who were
supposed to have held up Louis Lof-
kowitz, q driver for Junkman Finger
ote, at the dump in Second street.
Mr.. Fingerote reported to the po-
lice shortly before 6 o'clock that
youths had held up his man and de-
manded money. The youths, he said
got five cents from the driver and
took two bags of rags from the wag-
on.
The police started to search for the
offenders, one of whom was said to
have a soldiers suit on. Detective
Long captured Joseph Kennedy, six
teen years old of Third street, Eliza
bethport at o'clock, while several
of the patrolmen and Roundsman
Morris were searching for the others.
The youth with the soldier suit
somehow reached North Amboy and
when the news spread that he was
wanted, a crowd which grew until 1t
exceeded a thousand, chased him. The
soldier led them a merry chase and
ran down Washington street with the
mob close behind He gave them the
SAAP 0h0 AAA 0OWA LILO AdAIAOdu
tracks at Washington street and New
Brunswick avenue, but Constable
James H. Moran was waiting in the
darkness. and, when the fellow came
along, placed him under arrest.
Stories were in circulation to the
effect that he was deserter, that he
had picked someone's pocket, and
the like, and, when Moran took him
down Smith street, large crowd fol-
lowed. He was locked up for the
night, for although he proved that
he was not a deserter, he was
thought to be one of the gang who
robbed the Junkman.
The youth gave his name as
George Walck, of 18th street, Eliza
bethport, and said he was a bugler
in the United States Marines and that
his furlough did not end until today.
He proved his statements by showing
his furlough
Acting Recorder Colyer discharged
the two prisoners yesterday morn
ing as the junkman said that he had
given them the five cents and that
the rags had been placed back on his
wagon again, The youths denied
that they were the guilty ones, but
Lofkowitz declared that they were.

BIRTHDAY AND MARRIAGE CELEBRATED
Calvin Kesler Honored by Friends and His
Daughter Mafries John A. KOon.

The I'd day of January, 1908,
at the home Of Calvin Kesler was
a merry day. Mr.. Kesler is So
years old; was born on the day
the railroad trains first came to
Salisbury. The writer was in
town and we'll remembers the
great excitement, the scare and
sympathy of some women over the
tired thing, the balloon ascension,
etc.
Mrs. Kesler, the family and
friends. concluded to take this oc-
casion to celebrate his SD ami
versary in a way not known to
him. Mr.. Kesler was out at his
work when his friends began to
come in. He was expecting a
wedding, bnt did notslook for visi-
tors SO soon. AS friends contin-
ued to come in they prevailed on
him to dress HIMSELF. in a short
time a good crowd was present,
al jolly and full of fun but Mr..
Kesler could not see through the
strange maneuverings. At length
Rev. R. L. Brown drove up in
great haste, as if some other ex-
citemeut was on hand. A cordial
greeting was given and soon din
ner was ready. All surrounded
the table, and after an explana-
ton, a short address and an ap-
proprlate divine service. Mr.,
Kesler was invited to partake of
the bountiful dinner set for him,
with the understanding that he
should have the assistance of
those present, provided he was
not able to consume all himself.
He at once surrendered and said to
the crowd: Come on!" All &C
cepted the invitation, joined in
heartily and did their best, and
still there was much left, much
untouched and much for another
meal. At this time Mr.. Kesler
seemed to feel somewhat easy and
We imagine that he thought the
storm was over, but it was not
long until he was invited to take
his seat by the side of the preach
er. Then the presents began to
come in from almost every direc-
ton to be presented to him
through Rev. R. L, Brown. And
here they came! Coat, vest, pants,
shirt, tie. cuff buttons, hat, to-
bacco, and so on. The suit was
good enough for a man of ''cloth''
and he had on a grin and smile so
mixed that it was hard to tell
which. Up to this time he has
been recognized as Cal. Kesler,
but now it is Mr.. Calvin Kesler.
After this storm had subsidized,
and everybody's nerves. became
somewhat quiet, John A. Koon
and Miss Mollie Kesler de-
string matrimonial affinity, took
their places for that purpose and
the ceremony was performed by
Rev. R. L. Brown in the presence
Of a large crowd. The couple
then gracefully retired and was
abundantly congratulated. They
have the best wishes of all for a
long, happy and prosperous life.
Mr.. Kesler has lost che of his
pretty daughters, but has been en-
riched otherwise. We feel sure
that this day will be long remem-
bered by all present. Xxx

GUILTY OF MURDER
IN SECOND DEGREE.
Jury Finds Clarence Poppas Guilty
of the Murder of Theodore
Karonis.

The jury in the case of Clarence
Poppas, an Aberdeen Greek, charged
with the murder of fellow country
man, Theodore Karonis, last April,
returned verdict of guilty of muir
der in the second degree Saturday
morning, after having been out all
night. The jury added recommen-
datiOn for mercy, which will proba-
bly, result in the minimum sentence
of ten years in the penitentiary.
The defense of Poppas made a
strong effort to make out a case of
self-defense, but failed. Poppas, on
the witness stand, testified that he
and KarOnis has quarreled over $40,
which Poppas was trying to collect
from Karonis; that at the fatal
quarrel Karonis had attacked him
with a club and razor, and that he
shot only in self defense, firing the
first shot into the ground, only shoot
ing to kill when Karonis was adj
vancing on him with a razor.
This theory was upset by the state,
which showed that Karonis never
owned a razor, and that neither razor
or club had been found near the scene
of the murder, although the Aberdeen
police made diligent search of the
vicinity of the murder, beginning i'm
mediately after the commission of the
crime and continuing until daylight
the next morning.
The trial of Poppas brought out
some revolving information concern
ing the Greek colony in East Aber-
deem, that will probably result in the
strict police surveillance of those
concerned, and it is possible that
those to whom the testimony pointed
direct will be ordered to leave the
city. The character of the crimes
committed prevent their publication
in family newspaper, but it is such
that every parent whose children
come in contact with this bunch of
degenerates should be advised. 1t is
up to the city authorities to act in
the matter.
Attorney Wilson Buttner, of the
defense, has written the Greek con-
sui at Tacoma of those revelations.
and that official is expected to arrive
in Aberdeen this evening, for the
purpose of investigation, that the
guilty parties may be deported

BIG REALTY DEAL.
Union Pacific Railway Makes Large
Purchase in South Aberdeen
Sale of Hill Property.

The Aberdeen real estate marl,at
received a couple of big boosts last
week through couple of large deals
showing faith of outside money in
the future of this city, the certainty
OF the building of the Union Pacific
hallway to Grays Harbor, and the
proba Bile building of an interurban
trolley system from Puget Sound by
the Stone & Webster syndicate. It
is said to be the intention of this
concern to connect Vancouver, b. c..
with Grays Harbor and Portland bv
electric railways.
A big realty sale was consummat-
ed Friday, when Willis and George
Hopkins sold their interest in the 40
acres known as the Benn & Hopkins
Addition, to ames Campbell and An
drew Peterson, two well known can
italists of Seattle, for consideration
of over 100000. 1t is believed the
new owners of this desirable tract
by building streets and sidewalks and
installing sewers before placing the
lots on the market, in the effort to
make the section the finest residence
portion of the city.
On the south side, e. c. Finch has
purchased 406 acres of A. p. Stock
we'll for $4,000. For whom this
purchase was made, Mr.. Finch is not
at liberty to say, but the fact that
the Union Pacific has has secured an
option on 40 acres from A. D. Devon
shire, of MontesanO; and 100 acres
from A. p. Stockwell, in the same
vicinity, leads to the belief that this
company is preparing in advance for
the enormous commerce that is bound
to come to Grays Harbor as the safety
of the bar and depth of water be-
comes known.
