Tho brief announcement of tho death of
Miss Minnie S. Wertman, which appeared
in the last Issuo of tho Arqui, cast u deep
gloom over our town. In company with
her aunt, Mrs. S. L. Finney, she went to
Dorrs, Columbia county, to atrend tho
funeral of hor father who died verj sud
denly two weeks ago, Tuesday. As her
brother was HI at Hie time, she decided to
remain a few days with him, and Mrs
Finney returned home, leaving Minnie at
ihe residence of her aunt, Mrs. Clinton
Lewis. She had complained several times
of pains lu tho sldo and brrast, but up to
the day of her death nothing of a serious
nature developed Itself, lu tho evening
sho had beon lying down, and about the
usual time lor retiring, sho remarkod to
her aunt that sho would uet up and go up
to her room. Sho arose from the couch,
but had barely rested her weight upon the
Iloor until she fell over and expired almost
Instantly. A physic! in was summoned
who pronounced it as his opinion that tho
causo of her dcatli was an abscess of tho

About a year ago stens wore Ukcn to en-
force tho tramp law In this town. Con
stable Woodward arrested a number of
them, tho ovldcnco against them bclne all
that was required by the law to convict
them. Notwithstanding this tho grand
Jury Ignored tho bill apd put tho costs on
the officer, but tbo court would not permit
this to bo done, ou tho ground that costs
could not bo Imposed on a pcaco officer In
tho lawful dlschargo of bis duties. This
action of the grand jury has slnco deterred
the officers from arresting tramps for fear
that that body, sworn to enforce the laws,
would again refuse to do Its plain duty. It
Is probablu that tho grand jury was actuat
ed by a desire to provent the costs that
might bo put on tho county by tho whole
sale arrest of tramps, but this would not
ho tho result. When It became noised
abroad that tramps were arrested In
uioomsuurg tuo nuisanre was abated for a
long time, but It is again becoming as bad
as over. These fellows arc Insolent and.
lazy, and would rather go without a meal
than to work for It, and so are entltl.d to
no sympathy. Burglaries aro becoming
frequent all over tho country, and there Is
no doubt that many of them are committed
uy tramps, liio law defines a tramp as
ono who goes about from placo to place
begging, asking or subsisting upon charity,
aud for the purpose of acquiring monoy or
a living, nnd having no fixed placo of rest
denco or lawful occupation In tho county
wnere ho is arrested, and on conviction ho
may bo Imprisoned not more than a year,
Tht act excepts females, minors under six
teen, and blind, deaf or dumb persons.
Any ono has power to arrest a tramp with
out a warrant, on view of tho offense.
Tho conviction of one or two would scare
tho others away, and the costs would bo
light. Wo would suggest to tho town
authorities that boards bo placed In every
street leading Into the town, with a notice
painted thereon, to tho effect that the
tramp law Is enforced here, and that all
such persons found begging aro liable to
imprisonment for one year in tho county
jail. This might keep them away so that
tliero would bo no necessity for arrests.
The uulsanco Is growing, nnd somo steps
ought to bo taken at onte to protect our
homes. There ore many ladles in this
town who are afraid to go to the door to
answer the bell after dark, if aloue in tho
house, for fear of tramps- There should
bo no occasion for this, and it can bo pre
vented, If grand juries will permit the laws
made for the protection of society to bo
enforced.
Attempt nt nurxlary.
About ono o'clock, on tho morning of
Saturday, November 27, 18S0, an attempt
was made to enter tho residence of S. N.
Walker, No. 40 Hock street, Bloomsburg,
by two men, one of whom was seen to pass
hurriedly down the alley between tho Mc-
Ivelvy and Cbrlstman lots, while the other
was heard going down the walk on the op
posite sldo of the house; the two met on
Hock street In front of the house, and went
towards tho residence of Mr. Tustin and
down the allpy between Tustin and Fora
wnld. The man who went down the alley
woro a cap and dark clothes. An investi
gation in the morning disclosed tho fact
that they had tracked close to tho back
kitchen window, and had thrown down

tumbled down a pile of shingles in tho j
shed, removed a pl-cu of tin spouting from
a bench to .a wheelbarrow, standing near,
and tried to liht a match upon It, wasting j
three in the trial there and three more at ,
the back door ot the house. Just before
the town clock struck one, the Inmates of

discovering uotblug out of the way, went
back to bed; not satisfied that all was right,
they soon rose, and mado a second and
moro t orough examination, when the
thieves, fortunately for them, took flight
just in time to save themselves. This at
tempt, following so closely on the opening
of Hawlings' safe, leads to the suspicion
that a gang of burglars is operating In Co
lumbia county, and it behcoves everybody
to beware.
Railroad News.
There is very little to report in railroad
news. It's pretty well settled tuat 1110 ter
minus of the Wllkes-Barro & Western will
bo Shlckshlnny. It will not go to Hunlock's
Creek, the resolutions of the Cambra meet
ing to tbo contrary notwithstanding. The
liberal offer of the Hunlock's Creek party
is all a myth and tho $300,000 extra cost to
take it there Is a matter of somo Import
ance. Tho road will come to Shlcksuinny
nnd the route chosen will depend largely
upon the success of the committee named
at (ho Cambra meeting. Tho committco Is
a strong one and, considering tho matter at
stake, should leave nothing undone to raise
tho required capital. The Marshall Hollow
route will bo a more profitable one to
the company, although It Is a fow miles
longer. Kcho.
A syndicate, including New York, Lon
don and Philadelphia capitalists, has been
meeting at the office of Barker Bros. & Co.
Lehigh Valley has extensive soft coal In
terests in the Snow Shoe district. All its
p-oduct has gono over the Pennsylvania
Railroad. Tho Schuylkill Valley line has
alarmed the Lehigh Valley.
In consequence a new trunk line will bo
built. Two routes have been surveyed
one west from Mauch Chunk, tho other
from ABhland. The charter will bo that ot
tho old New York, Bloomsburg and West
ern.
In addition to the Chicago llncs.brancbcs
to Pittsburgh, Wheeling and Cincinnati will
bo built.
The syndicate Is said to have $20,000,000
capital. The cost from Mauch Chunk to
tho Ohio State line will be about 15,00,
000. Lehigh Valley will also build into Jersey
City. It is denied that Lehigh Valley, as a
