cial Balances,
Our readers will no doubt remember
the account of an atiack Harry
Gensberg by highway robbers, in Cen-
tre counvy, which published in
this paper. The outrage was commit-
on
was
ted on November 13, 1897, the robbers
pulling Geunsberg from his wagon and
beating him terribly; no doubt they
would have killed him, had not a Mr.
tunkle of Middleburg appeared

Circumstances pointed to the guilt
of a certain party in this county sand
on the 28th of February he was arrest-
ed and afier a hearing before Justice
Reinhart, of Haives township, Centre
county, he was committed to Belle-
fonte jail. Later another party
was arrested and also confined in jail.
At the April term of court the case was
tried,
There was plenty of circumstantial
evidence against one of the prisoners,
whilst the other established an alibi.
The jury declared both the prisoners
not guilty and placed the costs on
Gensberg,
Having been at considerable ex pense
in arresting the prisoners and getting
them to jail, paying attorney fees, ete. ,
Gensberg was obliged to borrow mon-
ey. His note matured and, being un-
able to pay, his furniture and goods
were sold by the sheriff of this county
last week,
Tuesday of this week Sheriff Cronis-
ter, of Centre county, came down, ar-
rested and took Geuosburg to jail until
he pays the costs. As we understand
it the Judge refused Gensburg a new
trial. We heard Sheriff Cronister,
who heard the evidence in the first tri-
al, say that there was no doubt in his
mind as to the guilt of the one man.
If the Sheriff has that opinion, why
did not the Judge give Gensberg
another chance.—Mifflinburg Times.

| OLD GLORY AT PLEASANT GAP.
Interesting Event. A Monster Flag Fut
High in the Alr,
Our neighbors at Pleasant Gap had |
a grand raisin x of the Btars and
Stripes, last Thursday afternoon, by |
stretching a wire cable from two peaks |
in the gap where the old toll-gate used |
to be, and on this, immediately above |
the pike, now proudly floats the Amer- |
lean flag, 75x40, some 400 feet above |
terra firma making it look likea 10x6 |
emblem,
The day was all that could have been |
desired and a larze crowd hal gather-
ed from the surrounding townships to
witness the affair.
The flag was made to slide from the |
cable on the west towards the centre
by rings fastened to thetop. A light |
wire, drawn by ten young ladies, sped
the great banner, weighing 100 lbs, |
on its way, at short ts they |
ascended the side. |

Wilnot Stand the Weather
The flags hung within the last two
weeks at Coburn and Pleasaat Gap, do
not stand high winds which roar
through the gaps in the mountains
over which they are hung. The flag
at Coburn has been {orn almost to
shreds, and the large one at Pleasant
Gap has two or three rents in it al-
ready. The heavy rope at the botiom
has been torn loose, but the Pleasant
Gap ladies will repair»! the damage
done. The flags have too largean area
to stand the wind pressure,

Look Oat for It
A new and dangerous counterfeit
ball-dollar bas made its appearance,
says an exchange paper from a neigh-
boring county. It is made of lead,
with a little glass in its composition to
give It the necessary ring, but it is soft
and light in weight. The color is good
and the workmanship exceedingly
fine, making it hard to detect when
