Time, But Started Too Soon
Will Spend the Week in Sheriff
KimbIe's Hotel.

Mrs. Bessie Rollison, who was
called before the justice of the peace
a few days ago for drunkenness and
disorderly conduct in the borough of
Prompton, was again arraigned be-
fore Justice r. A. Smith Monday af-
ternoon for a like offense in the
borough of Honesdale on Saturday
night of last week. Bessie had been
to a celebration in Bunnelltown and
had taken too freely in some of the
refreshments She has a strong
voice, which several of the people
residing on Cliff street and in the
borough will vouch for. When she
reached the borough line Chief J. j.
Canivan gently tapped her upon the
shoulder and took her into the tolls
of the law. When she appeared be-
fore Justice Smith Bessie told the
venerable Squire that she did not
remember anything from the time
she left Bunnelltown until she awoke
in the Jail Monday morning. JUS
tice Smith sent her to Hotel De Kim
bic for ten days as a punishment.

THIS BIRO A SINGER I"
Singery, Alias singering, Alias Sim
ger Missing From Erie Depot
Money Too--Was Here a Week
Robbed Safe Saturday Night.

The Erie depot at East Honesdale
was burglarized Saturday night or
early Sunday morning and consider
able money taken. Suspicion Is
pointed toward Iceland Singery,
telegraph operator and clerk, who is
missing and who had been in the
employ of the road since August IS,
a week ago.
The money drawer was found in an
empty freight car near the station.
There were several checks in the
drawer, but they were not disturb
ed. The key to the station was
found Monday morning lying along
the tracks several hundred feet be-
low and near Borden's new milk
shipping station.
The discovery was made when
Singery did not appear at the depot
Sunday morning to sell tickets for
the east bound passenger train,
which leaves East Honesdale at 9:43.
! Singery, who posed under three diff
| ferent names during his short stay in
Honesdale, was last seen Saturday
evening at o'clock, when he left his
| boarding house at East Honesdale.
| Mrs. John Markey, with whom Sim
! gerry, alias Singering, alias Singer,
! SldyeuJ Shlppeu his DOdIu lOI Iuc
week.
! Singery had evidently closely
watched Joseph Breun, clerk at the
station, whenever the latter went to
the safe. The combination was so ar
ranged that when Mr. Breun desir-
ed to open the safe he could do so
by turning the dial part way to a
given point. Singery undoubtedly
availed himself of the opportunity
and watched how the safe was lock-
ed and unlocked.
He was sent to Honesdale by the
Dunmore dispatcher. Singery hail
ed from Mexico, where the company
now wish he had remained.
Singery, whose occupation is that
of telegrapher, was sent to Homes
dale during Daniel Maloney's alb
sence, the latter having gone to
jamestown, n. Y, where he attend
ed a convention of the station agents
of the Erie railroad.
Guy Ralph, Erie lieutenant of po-
lice, is in Honesdale working on the
case. Mr.. Ralph has notified all sta
tions on the Erie line between New
York City and Chicago to be on the
alert for a man answering the fol-
lowing description:

Menner VS.. Honesdale Borough.

The case of Joseph Menner against
the Borough of Honesdale was
argued on the rule granted by Judge
Charles B. Staples, of Stroudsburg,
Monroe county a few days after the
trial to enter Judgment in favor of
the defendant upon all the evidence
in the case. This is in accordance
with the Act of 1906 which pro-
vides that upon hearing had by the
trial judge judgment may be en-
tered in favor of the defendant
against the verdict of the jury if
in the opinion of the judge the evil
dence in the case would not sustain
the verdict. Argument was made by
Homer Greene for Mr.. Menner and
by G.. A. McCarty and Searle e Sal
mon for the Borough of Honesdale.
Judge Staples said he would read all
the evidence again and write his
opinion as soon as convenient. He
intimated that the points at issue
were very close. Mr.. Menner OBJ
tanned verdict against the Borough
of Honesdale in the amount of ST.
sos at the April term of court for
damages which he sustained by be-
ing thrown from his wagon at the
intersection of Fifteenth and West
streets more than a year ago. Mr.
Menner alleged in his suit that the
injury was caused by the defective
construction of a ditch along West
street which was SO deep that the
street became dangerous for public
travel. His suit was originally
brought for $4,000.
