Wilkesbarre. Pa.-When an oppor-

walked into a blacksmith shop and
carried away several pairs of rubber
pads. The police got on his trail and
he was arrested. Thereupon he con-
fessed.
When arraigned before Police
Magistrate Walsh the man said:
Tell you what I'll do, Judge. I'll
work for this blacksmith until 1 pay
back in labor the value of the goods
and to show him that I am sorry I'll
throw in a couple of extra days"
The idea appealed to the court and
the blacksmith when both showed a
willingness to accept an agreement
was drawn by which Graham will re-
ceive $3.50 a day. The first dollar
he earns is to be equally divided be-
tween the city and his wife, the mon

IuNIrnD PRESS LEASED VINE. !

Altoona, Pa, Feb. 15.-Latest re-
ports this afternoon from Warrior
Ridge, Pa, the scene Of the wreck Of
the eastbound Pennsylvania limited
variously estimate the number OF
dead at from five to 15 Owing to the
crippled condition Of the wires the
exact figures cannot be obtained.
All wires connecting Warrior Ridge
with outside points we're partly demol-
ished in the wreck. A relief train
bearing physicians and nurses and a
wrecikng crew left here this after
noon for the scene OF the disaster.
The limited was running 60 miles an
hour when the accident occurred. II
is believed that the wreck was caused
by a broken truck either on the rear
Of the locomotive or on the first car
which caused the derailment Of prac-
tically the entire train.

the coming election.

the coming election.
The fight revolved about the ex-
emption law proposed by the tax COM
mittee, and an amendment passed by
the Legislature. The exemption law II
was stated did not limit the exemp-
tions on furniture. and this was OBJ
jected to by many. The amendment
is was said, would pave the way for
legislation diverting the taxes now re-
ceived by counties for their school
fund from public service corporations
in the Golfers of the state, and this
was the main question discussed.
Tax Commissioner Galloway took
the floor and defended the measures,
asserting the trainers of them had not
intended them to bring about such leg
islation, and that the amendments did
not contemplate 1t.
The resolution was finally forced to
vote, carrying by the above vote.
The legislative amendments en-
dorsed were an amendment abollshing
the poll tax; an amendment declaring
that the power of the legislature and
people to make tax laws should not be
surrendered; and an amendment pro-
viding that the people or Legislature
may pass laws providing for collec-
tlon of state, county and municipal
taxes, and the apportlonment Of state
taxes
The tax committee measures en-
'dorsed were the income amendment
the measure exempting mortgages and
notes, the householder exemption law
and the inheritance law.
