FULL WEEKS COURT.
Sheriff Harris Found Guilty Of Negli-
gently Permitting Prisoners Escape.
Sentence Withheld TO January.
LOCKARD GOES TO PENITENTIARY.

The case of Sheriff JEFF erson
Harris, charged Q) with volun.
tarlly permitting Russell Sipes
to escape, and (2) negligently per.
hitting HIM to escape, was taken
up Tuesday afternoon at 4.30
O'Clock, and 1t occupied the time
of the Court from then until aft.
er ten the next day to agree upon
jury.
The defendant was represented
by Jno. p Sipes, S. W. Kirk, of
McConnellsburg, apd oy Charlie
Walters, of the Cham bersburg
bar. District Attorney Lynch
was assisted by special counsel,
o. G. Bowers, of Cham bersburg,
in behalf of the Commonwealth.
The trial was fercely contested,
and 1t was half past ten o'clock,
Friday morning when the Court
finished his charge and sent the
jury out to frd a verdict. After
several hours dehberatlon, they
returned a verdict of guilty on
the second count, namely, negli.
gence IN permitting the prisoner
to escape. The penalty for this
offence is a fine not exceeding five
hundred dollars, and imprison.
ment for a term not exceeding
one year. At three o'clock, Sat.
urday afternoon, the Court an.
nounced that sentence would be
withheld until January term.
The Court gave as his reason for
dong this, that the Sheriff would
be able to complete his term of
Office, and prevent the necessity
of having the Governor appoint a
successor for the short time he
would have to serve.
Perhaps never in the history
of the County has case attracted
so much attention locally; the
feeling of the citizens of McCon.
nellsburg were keyed to a high
tension, and the disposition made
of the case by the Court may
have been righteous but 1t was
anything but popular. The fact
that the Sheriff has since placed
the prisoner II jail, will alleviate
the feeling of the community
very much.
For the shooting of Constable
Foster, of Wells township, w. II.
LockaId was sentenced to the
Western penitentlary Cor a period
not exceeding three years, and
not less than nine months.

Arthur Harrison Cole.

Arthur Harrison Cole of HaVerhill,
Mass, the third speaker, had for his
subject '"rhe Nineteenth Century and
the short story" He said in part:
Life is monstrous, infinite, illogi-
cal abrupt, and poignant; work
of art. in comparison, is neat. finite.
self-containetl. rational, flowing. and
efnasculate" Thus Stevenson, in his
essay, A Humble Reconnaissance,
holds up for us that fearlessness in
which swe live and the handglass in
which we would mirror 1t. Such Il
contrast has inevitably risen in mems
minds as they gaze about them and
analyze their existence, Especially
during the Nineteenth Century. mark
ed as it was by progress and differ
entIation, have they been forced to
half close their eyes, To limit their
vision that they might not be over
whelmed in what Stevenson calls
the welter of impressions all forci-
Bile but all discreet
During the past century the wave
of realism reached it's height, the
wave of that realism which sought
to cope With the complexity OF life
and to reproduce it infinitely in art
At the opening of the century all art
was engulfed in it. The historical
realistic novel was In control and rose
