murderers of Patrick Burns, a resectable
young Irishman, who was killed ou April
15, 1870, at a small milling town named
Tuscarora. This was not in tho truo eenso
of tho wonl n ".Molly" outrage, as tho primo
mover in the nlluir wns not a member of
that organization, although some of the men
who participated in tho crime under his
directions were "Mollies." Bums was clerk
for the (inn of Sooarrez & Co., coal operators,
and in tho course of time discovered that tho
insido boss, named John Kane, was defraud
ing ills employers. Possessing himself of
the true inivanlness ofthe fraud Burns gavo
the lurtieulnrs to his employers, who, how
ever, had not tho rouruge to suport their
mm in inu iiiicrgeucy ou account oi mar
fear of Kane, who Was known as adesiwrato
l,rn..n 1... l. - :.. ...... , .
Character, ho having in lb7 munlercd in '
i-oiu uioou uis own on niicr. i or this crimo
ho was convicted of murder in tlio second
degree, but was pardoned, after undergoing
two years' imprisonment, by Governor Geary
at tlio solicitation of Sooarrez and others.
Kane continued to make false returns of
his work, but actuated by a spirit of revenge
determined to murder liurns, although tlio
latter had failed to get him discharged.
Meeting tho unfortunate man as ho was
walking iu tho direction nf his offico at an
early hour iu tho morning. Kauo's jarty
halted him, and ono of thou!, Michael Ber
gnn, shot 1 ii tit dead. Nothing was ever
iloiio in the case, until of late, when it was
placed in the hands of Pinkertou's detec
tives, who on Saturday night caused tho
arrest of Michael B.-rgan, of Girardvillo,aud
John Kune, of Tuscarora.
Kano was arrested at Pottsvillc, having
served as a juror iu our courts during the
just week. Ho of courso protested ins in
nocence, but weakened visibley when charg
ed with the murder. Bergau also denied
his guilt and said :
"Sure if I wanted to skip I could have
done so Ions ago, as when'Tli'o Hairy Man
was arreetecj his wife-tent mo wont that I
-wuuiu swing oo mo same treo as ne aid,"
Jomea McPonnrll is Implloated in this
murder, lut is already confined in Mauch
Chunk jail on a charge of killing Gcorgo K,
Smith at Audcnricd (u 1803, Ono other
was to havo been arrested. but when wanted
ha wasn't to bo found, though strong hopes
are entertained of catching him.
Tho arrest of theso men is very Important
in ono respect, i ucy aro cnargcu wun mo
murder ot on Irishman, and tho efi'ort3 mado
to effect their capture should satisfy that
nationality mat tney stand on an oven loot,

Attempt tn IlrtnU Jail.
A dispatoh dated Bloomsburg,ra. Jan. 23,lo
tho N. . Herald, gives tho following parti
culars of tho attempt, of tho condemned
Mollie, Peter McIIugh, to break jail at that
placo on the previous night i
A desrwralo oflbrt to break iail was mada
hero last night by Peter McIIugh, ono of
intco men under ttentcnro ot tieatn lor tho
murder of Alexander Ilea, n respected mino
superintendent, who was murdered for his
money iu 1808. Hrste.r, Tully and McIIugh
wcro convicted of tho murder in February
last, nud ono week ago their conviction was
affirmed by tho Supremo. Court. When the
decision ol the latter court was made known
to tho ntithoiities) tho prisoners were placed
in separate cells and at night shackled,
McIIugh, who is considered tno most dan
gerous man of tho three, was placed in tho
strongest cell of ono of tho poorest ajiologics
for a jail that exists in tho country ; in fact
its unfitness for tho purpose is so well known
thai a guard of four coal and iron officers
havo mado it their home during tho past
year.
i lie prisoners wcro closely watched, but
no sujpicion that any of them contemplated
making an attempt to escape was entertain
ed. At ten o'clock last niulit. however, an
officer, on listening nt McIItigh's roll door,
heard a scratching no's. IIu cave tho in
formation to the captain of tho guard, who
concluded to remain quietly nt his post until
miiiiiitiH. At mat nour mo cell was en
tered. Upon McIIugh's bed, which was
unoccupied, lay his shackles, but the priso
ner was nowhere to bo seen. Upon remov
intr tho bedstead a hole, nieasnrinrr twclvn
by eighteen inches, was found in the floor,
and through it could bo seen an excavation
four feet in depth. Just ns this discovery
was made n revolver in tho hand of ono of
the officers exploded, whereupon a smother
ed voico from beneath tho lloor exclaimed,
'Don't shoot, I'll come up." In a moment
tho missing man mado his appearance.
Ho intended to dig his way Under tho
wall and thence up through the surface. If
ho had attacked the wall ho could havo es-
caped iu two hours. How ho unlocked his
shacklos cannot be explained, and McIIugh
refuses information ujion tho point. This
morning lie savs :
" Why didn't you shoot mo last night?"
Tho officer replied. " There is nnother
death in sloro for vou."
Well." remarked McIIufrh. " I am re;dv
to die nt any moment."
Ho is now confined with Tully.and chain
ed to the floor. His death warrant and thnso
of his two companions will arrive in tho
courso of a few days.
An Agreenble Visit.
Among tho pleasant thintr3 of life, and
ono that will cheer up the drooping spirit of
him that is trying to fill tho offieo of a
Christian Minister, is to havo hi friends call
and spent nn evening in social conversation.
Sueli n visit was paid mo the other evening.
There wa agendo knock nt tho door, ami
when wo opened it, therostood a few friends.
Wo welcomed them gladly, Two hours
were spent pleasantly In social lalh. Wo
could hardly realize that it was time for them
to depart, when one said " It's time wo wcro
thinking of going home." After theyde
parie I wo felt very much refreshed. I wish
they Would come often.

When the telegraph announced the dis
covery by Prof. Hall that our neighboring
planet had two ratcllitcs, and the dispatch
was read tho next morning at ten thousand
American breakfast tables, what think you
was tho effect upon tho hearers? Somo rol
loquy similar to tho fnlllowing was sure to
occur : "Mars has two moons, hey ? Pass
mo the milk, Kitty. Strange, isn't it, that
astronomers never saw them before. An
other chop, please. I wonder what they'll
discover next'.' These com rakes are excel
lent. What's the latest froiu Eurojio 7" Wo
have become so accustomed to startling dis
coveries and announcements, that wo tako
mem ns a matter ot course. Even truth
must apjicar iu flaming colors to make her
self seen. Tho virtuesof Dr. Pierce's Golden
Mrdiral Discovery and Pleasant Purgative,
FelleU havo been tested iu ten thousand
households, whoo Inmates will tell you that
they ronsulrr the discovery and introduction
of these remedies! of far greater importance
to tho world than tho moons of Mars.
