A GOOD HAUL OF FIRE BUGS.
They Did Just Whut They Were Hired
to Frevent.
Praixrierp, N. J., Aug. 20.—A gang of
night watchmen, paid by private persons
to protect property, have been trying to
burn up this town for a year and a half,
simply to emphasize the necessity for thelr
existence. Yesterday morning seven of
the villains were arrested und several
more residents are implicated. During the
past year the incendiary fires in this
city have averaged two a week. Bome
nights the fire deparlment has been called
out for action two and three times, That
the police pould do nothing in the matter
at discovering the guilty parties was long
ago shown. Rewards offered by private
parties and insurance companies proved
unavailing and the common council decided
upon a uew and secret way of catehing the
rascals.
As there was no apparent reason for the
dastardly acts, this task was rendered all
the more difficult. Beveral lovel heads
worked on the scheme, however, and a trap
was iad Into which, after much nibbling
by the gullty ones and changing of base by
the lovers of law and order, tho desired
end was brought about. A man fromdown
east, Edward Murphy, was obtained as a
cat'sspaw. He came here disguised as a
workman and accepted a position in Pot-
ter's printing-press works. While work-
ing there he quickly made the scquain-
tance of all tha boys about town, and as he
acted the part of a hall fellow well met
and one free with his money and was always
ready to “set ’em up" on drinks, he at once
fell into the good graces of his game, After
staying at Potter's press works for some
time, o was expelled for good and suflio-
tent reasons and applied for work at Scott's
press works At factory worked
the same game and with as good results,
During the whole time was in corros-
pondence with Councilman Tunis J. Carey,
and by the latter was furnished with nec-
essary tools to carry on his scheme,
Satur tay evening Mr. Carey, who keeps
a store on West Front street, had a call for
some cotton waste and Kerosene oll. He

however, the cry “Hands up!” arresied
his attention and he was fairly and square-

His Hearing Restored by Prayer. -
Brue BrriNes, Neb, Aug. 25. ~The Free
Methodists have been holding a camp meet-
ing here for some time, and fifteen per-
sons have professed conversion. Among
them is J. J. Bentley, who since 1368 had
been deaf in one ear, and for the past
three years and up to the time of the
meeting totally deaf in both ears. Night
before last, during ag experience meeting,
he spoke of this as a thorn in his flesh, and
asked to be prayed tor. All present knelt,
and fervent prayers were offsoed that he
might be healed. Suddenly, during the
devotions, he sprang to his feet, shouting,
“Glory to God! My hearing is restored"
and since that time he has been able to
hear porfgotly.
