A FitilhlcNS Ofllclnl.
A matter which for judicious reasons has
been keep from tho public as much a possi
bio for sovaral weeks, is tho fact that Samuel
Sterrett, a tax-collector of Lansford borough,
had suddenly absconded to parts unknown.
An examination of his accounts developed
tho staitling fact that ho was a defaulter to
the amount of about $200 to tho borough
and $300 to Herman Kobe, with whom he
hail been engaged as n business partner In
western produce speculation. When finally
it became evident that tho abscounding was
no myth, the facts wero laid beforo District
Attorney Siowcrs, who at onco began to
turn his attention to tho matter of what
point of tho compass tho faithltss official
had taken in his flight. Tho past experi
ence which tho District Attorney lias had in
bringing fugitives criminals from tho coal
regions to tho bar of justice, has placed in
Ins hand dctcctivo facilities from tho meshes
of which it is no easy matter for a fugitivo
to escape. Aud he was not long in divin
ing that Sterrett, probably remembering
tho lato Horace Grcely's advice to young
men, had concluded to "go west." On
Monday of last week, Herman liebo, who
is nu officer of tho Coal and Iron Police, be
ing arjjied with tho requisite warrants and
including a requisition from Gov. Hoyt on
tho Governor of Illinois, started in pursuit
of his man. He found him witout much
searching in a little town near tho city of
Galena, III., arrested him, and Saturday
afternoon reached Mauch Chunk. Ho was
arraigned beforo Justico Fiisbie, on a
charge of embezzlement and larceny, and
entered bail in tho sum of $1000 for his
nppear.tneo at Court. It is understood that
tho tax-defalcation has becu settled by his
bondsmen, and that ho will claim that ho
was a copartner and not an agent of Her
man Itebe. It now appears that his ab
sconding wa9 not so much to get away
with tho cash in his possession, as toescajio
a dilemma into which ho had been lead
by an indiscreet relation with a. young
woman. Ho has always been considered
a man of irreproachable character.
Another UlUiimiicr Cnso
A young gentleman from tho upper end
of the county pranced into tho Advocatk
offieo n few days ago witli an unreceipted
bill in his hand for overdue subscription.
Wo looked at him j ho gbneed nt us. At
last ho said : "When I wroto you over a
year ago, ordering your to send mo tho An
vocati:, and signed my name as plain as tho
nose on your f.ioc,and that is saying a good
leal, 'J a-s. Bighcad,' why have you con
tinued ever since to print it on my wrapper
'J-i-m instead? Now, I needn't pay you
that subscription ; I can file a pica in abate
ment on tho ground of misnomer. And,
besides, I don't like to bo called Jim, any
way." Wo said it very cautiously : "See
here, young man, is It your purpose to try
to crawfish out of paying mo a dollar for
a year's subscription If so and I give
you just one week to think of it tho next
timo you cross my path, I'll hiko you by tho
napo of tho neck and tho seat of your pants
and plunge you top-end foremost into tho
Lehigh river. Now, mind you, that mis
nomer dodgo won't pass for ono cent in Lc
highton." Ho vanished like a shadow,
Yesterday ho wroto a letter, enclosing $2,
and saying,aoiogcticalIy, that as bo did not
wish to bo baptized by immersion during
tho prcfcnt stato of tho thermometer, ho lias
concluded to square up, and reiicw his sub
scription for tho current year. Wo have
corrected the name, and tho case is settled.

J. B. Kent, registered as coming from

o'clock Sunday afternoon, having commit
ted suicide by shooting himself in tho head
above tho right ear. Ho arrived In town on
the Buffalo Express on tho Lehigh Valley
ltailroad at 10:30 Saturday evening. Short
y after arriving at tho hotel ho went to his
loom and must havo committed tho deed
about 1 1 o'clock, as some of tho boarders
heard a report similar to that of a pistol shot
about that time, but, owing to tho high
wind prevailing, they thought it was causod
by tho opeuing of somo of tho shutters.
When found ho waslying in a pool of blood
iu front of tho bed. A silver-mounted sov-cn-shooter
was found by his side, with two
empty barrels. Sickness is supjioscd to have
been tho causo of tho rash act. His body
was removed to the county Alms-houso
Sunday afternoon, where it was held for

Tlio celebrated physician, Dr. Paul Hem-
oyer, gives the following valuable sugges
tions to persons suffering from lung alloc
tions: "The patient must with scrupulous
conscientiousness insist upon brea thine fresh.
puro air, and must remember that tho air of
clofca rooms is always moro or less bad.
ao man, However uncleanly, would drink
muddy, dirtv water. A Party which occu
pies n room for hours, breathing tho same air,
might bo compared to a party of bathers
drinking tho water in which they bathe.
Tho patient must keep the window of his
bedroom open. Night air is fresh without
daylight. In close, crowded rooms, the
patient suffering from lung complaints
breathes consumptively;" Bv taking these
precautions and using Dr. I'ierco's Golden
Medical Discovery anil Tleasant Purgative
l'ellets, fully one-half of the cases of luni
complaints would be cured in six months.
For cough and irritation of tho lungs do not
always indicate tho presence of consumption
although it may result in that disease, and
if consumption has already becomo deeply
seated in tho system, this is the most efficient
courso of treatment that can bo pursued out
side of any institution that provides special
facilities lor tlio treatment of this disease.
Dr. I'ierco's celebrated Invalids' Hotel is
