Our County Kitlr.
The second annual exhibition of Car
bon County Industrial Society com
menced on thelrgrounds In this borough,
on Tuesday last. On Wednesday mom
iug we took a glancu at the various de
partments of tho " show," and found
the display to be superior in quality to
anything before placed on exhibition In
this county. Am ing the most attrac
tive was the display of Mrs. E. H. Sny
der comprising a very hniidsoino silk
dress and satin undeiskirts, which at
tracted much attention from the Indies ;
on the next stand was a beautiful dls
play of fancy needlework by Mrs. J. V .
Haudcubush, nnd other ladies whoso
names, wo did not learn. F. P. Seminel
exhibits a case of splendid articles in
tho cutlery and silver-waio lino. T. D. j
Clans., the merchant tailor, exhibits a
very large and magnificent lot of cloths,
cassimers and vestiugs, together with
hats, caps, boots, shoes, gent's furnish
ing goods, Ac. This display Is very at
tractive. The exhibit of fruits Is very
fine and large, John Lopp, alone, hav
ing a display of 08 d.ffer"nt varieties of
apples. Tlio exhibit of agricultural Im
plements is fully equal to that of pro
ceeding years. The vegetable depart
inentcontainssoinevery fine specimens.
Tlio exhibit of horses Is full, and con
tains some fine and valuable stock. Tho
display of poultry is the largest and
finest wo ever saw In this county, while
the exhibits in cattlo, hogs and sheep
are perhaps not as largo as on other oc
casions, tho stock is superior Ju quality
to that of former years. Taken In all
the fair of the present year Is fully up
with, if not superior to auy, hitheitn
held in this county. Thursday was the
greatest day over known on the Lehigh
ton Fair Grounds. The throng in at
tendance was simply Immense.

Under the nhove caption, tho Enston
Expiess, of laet Snturday, gives tho
following particulars of the dcnlb of
Mary Yetter. A few of our citizens
have for some 1 1 mo wondered at tho sud
denness of the girl's death ; but tho
mystery, now seems to be thoroughly
explained, through the untiring exer
tions of Detective Johnson, of Enston,
nsslted by our Indefatigable constable,
Jos. S Webb, and two or three other
of our citizens :
Tho readers of the Fxpress will re
member an account published In this
paper of tho sudden death of a girl aged
nineteen years, named Mary Yolter,
which occurred nt the Cenlrnl Hotel,
Kaston, on, tho Olh of September last.
The girl arrived nt the hotel nbout 11
o'clock In ihu morning of the 01 li Irom
Lehlghton, Carrion County, accompani
ed by a Mrs. W. D. Labar, for whom
she had been woiklug ns n servant.
The girl had been sick for several ilnys,
stid as Mrs. I.almr Intended to visit some
lelatlves near A'tigm, this county, she
concluded to take charge of the sick
girl and lake her to the home of her pa
rents near Stioudstinrg, or nt least nc.
company her ns far us llntigor. Ar
riving at Kaston the girl's Illness seem
ed to Increase, and her companion
thought It ndvlsnblu to slop here, nml
accordingly took n room at the Cenlrnl
Hotel. During the trip Irom Lehlgh
ton to Fasten thu girl hnd several at
tacks or vomiting which so much lu
created in violence after her arrival at
Ihe hotel that physicians: were called In
lo nttend her, hut she grew rapidly
worse, nml died nt 5 o'clock that alter
noon. Her remains were taken lo Moil
loe County and Interred
The physicians, nlthoiigh expressing
the opinion that the sickness was chol
eia morbus, vicre inclined to the belief
that the vomiting was too violent forthat
disease, and this, taken Into considera
tion with the fact that considerable
blood was ejected, roused their suspi
cions that poison might have been nil
ministered, nnd they accordingly saved
somo of the matter ejected I mm thu
stomach of deceased lor nnalyzatlon.
The inmates of the hotel, notblng this
action of tlio physicians, an I from their
own observations while lu Ihe room he
lore Ihe girl's death, started the report
that there was some mystery connected
with her death. The newspaper repoit
ers of Easton, ever on tho wnleh for in
formation, gained possession of the
tacts, so far as known, befoio the re
moval of the body, and, ns there was
suspicion of foul play, refialned from
publishing the snmo nt tho request of
District Attorney Meirlll and the physi
cians, who feared that giving publicity
to the suspicions might possibly pie
vent the nriest of paities whom future
Investigation wjiuld implicate.
In the meaiillme Dr. Slue nnd Mr.
W. S. Sweeney, Assistant Chemist at
Lafayette College, each took a portion
of the matter ejected from the stomach
(saved by Dr. Slue), and aiiiialyzed the
same separately, Ihe result of which
showed the piescnee of arsenic In largo
qiianity. This discovery gave the Dis
trict Attorney so.ne grounds to work on,
nod the case was placed In Ihe hands of
Detective Johnson, who immediately
went to work to nscei'.aln who adiniti.s
tered the poi-oii. He iiia.io a number
of dips to Lehigliloii. ami liiqulied Into
the standing of Ihe Libnr family, with
whom Ihe girl lived ; also ns to the ac
tions of the decensid while In serileo
of tho ianilly nod the roinpniiy she
kept. All this he had to accomplish
without exciting the suspicions of any
one. On nirlvlug nt Lchlghtiiii, how
over, he found that nn opinion prevail'
ed thertt that the girl had died from
pol-on, and this rumor necessitated still
moie delicacy In Mr. Jonnsoirs invcsii
gallons. licpeatcd visits failed to elicit
anything that tended to Implicate any
person iu the affair, finding nil at-
teiupls to ptobe the matter through out
side Investigation fullle.DetejIlve Johir
son resolved to Inlervlew the Labar
family, and for this purposoan Expre.-s
repmter accompanied mm to .Lchigii
ton. Tho Interview took place yesterday
morning. 'Ihe present servant girl at
the Labar house, Miss . orueliu Shin -gler;
was accidentally met nt a neigh
boring house, and, to thu questions of
the reporter, answered thus : " I knew
the gli! Mary Yetter I look l er place
nt Mrs. Labar's house. 1 went there
two days before she left to go home. I
slept with her two nights. The nlulit
before she left wo stayed up veiy late,
getting tilings ready for breakfast, for
she was going to start for home early
In tho morning. Shu oilen, nnd said she
did not want to go home, because she
did not like Stroudsburg. Wo talked in
bed until about 2 o'clock In the morn
ing." It was somo time before. Miss
Shlugler would tell what the conversa
tion was that took place lu bed, but ou
being informed that It might havo somo
bearlugou thecause of Mary's death, she
replied : " Weil, she asked mo If I
knew what arsenlc wus,! told her It was
poison. She said ' Mrs. Labar had some
t-i kill ittU will it kill people.' I said
yes. Then she asked how much it took
to kill a person, and I said 1 thought a
very little. We did not sleep long. Shu
also asked what arsenic was while wo
vero psellng potatoes, before we went
to bed. Wo got up very early. Both
went In the yard for chips. I saw her
go down to the barn. A short timo af
ter we were up she said bhe was awful
sick. I saw her go to the out-house
three times. She came back crying each
time. I heard Mrs. Labar say, the rea
sou she nent Mary away was: because
she could not do the work, 1 heaid
Mary say sbo had the dropsy and I saw
her limbs swollen very much. Shs ulu
but a few potatoes for breakfast and
drank a little water ; bho drank no tea
or coffee. She appeared to b,e very
blck, and Mrs. Labar sild I guess you
better not go home to-day, and Mary
said " yes, 1 aln's sick, I will go." A
young man named Patterson, who Is
not altogether rlglit came to see Mary
twice, bat Mrs. Labar would ma let lum
come any more. I asked Mrs. Labar
what Mary died of, and she said chol-'
era morbus, I fouud a paper contain
ing sugir uf lead uuveral daysafter Mary
died, lu it button basket. I told Mm.
Labar ond she said It belonged to her,
Hint she bought It for her children.
Mary dl.l not want til go home, sho
cried when tho stnge come, and we had
to help her Into It. I don't think she
had any trouble with any one. Sho
told me that Mrs. Labar tcohled her,
but she liked the place mid did nut waul
to leave.
The Labar linuso was next visited,
It Is surrounded by a truck garden.
Mr. Labar U a gardner by timid. Ills
barn Is only about thlity ynrds Irom
the house. Mts. Labar met the report
er at tho door, nnd when he made
known his mission, sho cheerfully re
plied ns follows: "The day M.iry start
ed (or home sho had been living here
Just six mouths and six days. I know
there Is a reort that Mary died by poi
son. I bought poison to kill rats about
two months since. I used it hu some
cheese. 1 don't think Mary hnd sense
enough to know what arsenic was. She
was not a bright girl. 1 concluded lo
send her homo because she was Incap
able of doing the work, ns I was sick.
I heard the girls talking very late the
night before Mnry started for home. 1
noticed that she ate only n little pota
toes and ih nn It water at breakfast. She
wns shk and crying. I nindu her mint
lea, hut she did not touch It.. She ap
peared to be sick I told her we would
not go, when Mary said no, I ain't sick,
I must go anyhow. 1 went with her lo
take her home, she vnmlled nearly nil
the way to En-ton III the enrs, I heird
the doctor ask her If sho took anything,
ami she said no. A half-wilted fellow
come to see her n couple of times nn 1 I
drove him off. Her folks told me I
should allow no boys to visit her. Sho
dreaded going home; while shn wns
here she Joined the Methodist Church,
when she camo here she was a Luther
an, nnd bho was afraid her people
would nbue her for going to the Meth
odist Chu'ch.
While the conversation was going on
Mr. Labar camo lu from the barn nnd
he said that somo of the arsenic bought
two months ago was left; that hu wrap
ped it up and placed It on n beam in
tlio barn wheio It still remains, "I
don't know If Mary knew whether It
was theie. It don't look as If it had
been tampered wlih I recleved a tele
gram from Easton stating that Mary
was dead, nnd went down. When I
camo back 1 henid of the rumor nbout
Ihe poison, nnd went immediately to
the barn ami found the arsenic where 1
left It. It might havo been opened
though."
Mrs. Labar said sho was sure Mary
was not pregnant; that she never had
any money, because her folks oidercd
that her money should be kept.
Thus the matter Manila. Officer
Johnson has performed his part In In
vestigating the ense as economically
nnd thoroughly as possible. Although
he was pressed to have tbo Coroner dis
inter the body of deceased at the start,
he refused, Imping to prove his suspl
clons that the girl had committed sui
cide. There Is n strong suspicion en
tertained by some, however, that Mary
Yetter was pregnant, and Hint the poi
son wns given her to get her out of the
way. A post mortem examination
would piove the gill's condition, hut
the qiuvtlon arises, which county will
proceed to have it done, tho girl having
been taken sick In Carbon, died In
Northampton nnd is hurled In Monroe?
We give to day tho above particulars
of the case, as wo no longer deem it
necessary to keep them from tho public,
inn much as the facts, so far ns known,
have become the town talk, and injus
tice Is being done to certain paities
seemingly innocent. The Labar family
are well spoken of by their neighbors,
and it Is evident tliey knew nothing of
the cause of Miss Yetter's sickness. It
seems altogether probable that the girl,
who Is represented as "weak minded,"
secretly paitook of the poison for some
Imaginary or ret I cause, entirely with
out the knowledge or connivance of any
other person or persons.
