——John Barnes, the milkman, has his
own troubles with runaways. Several
times within the past year his horse ran
away and last Friday morning the avimal
again took French leave while John was in
a house delivering milk. Starting out
pear the Lewistown pike the horse ran in
to Bishop street, up Bishop to Allegheny,
then north to the Diamond and down High
street. On the bridge over Spring oreek
the wagon collided with a truss tearing the
rim off a wheel. The horse continued to
Rhoads’ coal yard where the wagon was
upset and very badly demolished. The
horse was uninjured.
— At argument court on Monday argu-
ment was beard in the case of Bert Delige,
the colored man convicted at the January
term of court of murder in the second de-
gree for the killing of the Williams buy at
Scotia last October. E. R. Chambers Esq.,
made the argument in favor of a pew trial
for Delige, claiming that since the trial he
had come into possession of new evidence
which would be favorable to the prisoner,
one fact being that the gun which Delige
carried was known to be defective and went
off very easily, District Attorney Rankle
argued against the granting of a new trial
and denied the fact that theguo was in any
way defective. The court has the case un-
der consideration.

———Man is but human aud likely to err,
tience little mistakes will sometimes creep
into a newspaper uotwithstanding the
most watchful care of the editors but it is
seldom that the WATCHMAN makes a cor-
rection one week then has to come out the
next and apologize for doing so as we must
do this week in the case of the vote in
Gregg township on the cash va. work road
tax question. Two weeks ago we stated
2nd dnd 4h | that Gregg township had voted for a cash
: : : road tax but the returns printed on the
1 1 same page showed that the question was
lost. Our attention being called to this
fact we figured up the returns as printed
hin carefully and found that according to
them Gregg bad voted against the cash tax
by a majority of eighteen. This week,
however, Prothonotary A. B. Kimport gave
us the vote as compiled by the three judges
which shows that the cash tax question
carried by twelve of a majority and ona
full examination we find that our error was
caused by a mistake in the proof reading of
the western precines of the township, cur
figures as printed being 93 for, 87 against ;
whereas they should have read only 51
against ; a fact which places Gregg and
Rush townships as the only two in line for
a cash instead of a work road tax.

In the final summing ap it will be seen
that the total amount of money tuiued in

that it all canie from membership fees and
that it was the result of jost one month's

directions there would be little doubt
about the permanent success of the local
organization,

and means to this end an execative ocom-
mittee of ten men, five each from the
Orange and Red teams, has been appointed,

time would appreciate any suggestions or
offers of help made by the friends of the in-
stitution.
The association is under obligations to

cups and sancers. The supply is now ade-
quate to serve un supper to seventy-five

LICENSE Cour. Tuesday was license
court day when Judge Orvis heard the for-
ty-eight applicants for license in Centre
connty. In several cases remonstrances
were filed against the granting of a license
in a particular place, but in the majority
of cases the petition was merely presented
without much comment. The court held
all the applications over until Saturday,
March 17th, when be will likely an-
nounce bis decisions. A few new rules
were laid down among them being the an-
nouncement that all hotels should keep
their bars closed on such holidays as Me-

liguor ( whiskey) was to be sold in bottles

EpsoNx Furrz PARrDONED.—The board

recommended a pardon for Edson Fultz, of
Woodward, this county, who is servinga
two years sentence in the western peniten-
tiary for complicity in the robbery of the
Eby brothers about a year or more ago. I
will be remembered that Edson, his wile
and brother George and Harry Kessinger
were all arrested for the robbery. They
all plead guilty at the April term of court
last year except Mrs. Fultz who stood trial.
George Fultz and Harry Kessinger were
sent to the reformatory and Edson Fultz,
who appeared to be the leader of the gang,
was given a two years sentence in the
penitentiary.
