There are en the Hat for trial 1W eae of which 174 were returned and filed In the office of the clerk efthe quarter sessions alnce the January term. There are 43 priaenera In Jail await leg trial. I C. Oberlln, West Hempfleld, waa ap pointed foreman of the grand jury. Judge Livingston Instructed the Jury aa te a proper discharge of their duties, after which tbey retired te their room te act upon the Indictments aenl te them by the district attorney. TO constables of the several districts in the county made tbetr usual quarterly re turns. There were only a few Tlolatlens of law returned by the constables. - THE CONSTABLES INSTRUCTED. The constables elected In 1890 were as as algned the seats usually occupied by the grand Jurers se that tbey could together receive the instructions of the court. ' Judge Livingston in beginning his talk said that owing te some error or mistake in the construction of the law of 1887, aa te constables, there were no elections held for constable In a number of the districts of tbe county." Our construction of the act Is that constables elected in 1889 were chosen for one year only. Wbere no elections were held In 1800 there are vacancies which will be filled en Saturday, and in filling tbe va cancies preferences will be given te the constables elected in 1889, If they are preper persons for the oftlce. Constables elected where there were no notices posted for the election of that officer will have te present their petitions en Saturday." Te these elected In 1890 the court said It was proper te say a few words as te their duties, and as they were elected for three years it was proper tbey should learn the duties of the office. " Thore are many thlnga that con stables de net understand, and in many instances tbey de net de their duly. "It Is necessary at all times for a censtable te be a sober man, geed tempered, peace ful and able te control bis temper at all times and under all circumstances. The peace, geed order and welfare of society, the safety of citizens, are Intrusted te your hands. All tbe laws rotating te your office aheuld be promptly executed without fear, favor or affection, and when constables de net de thelr duty, become recreaut te their trust, violate the! r oaths and are net worthy of the confidence Imposed en them." The laws of Pennsylvania make, it neces sary for constables te be present at all general elections. Their duties at elections werediscussed at length. The, court nest referred te tbe law In reference te wagera en elections and told the constables it was thelr duty te com mence proceedings against all persons who wager, se that the penalty prescribed, three times the amount wagered, can be recovered from tbe offending party. Tbe duties of constables as te returns for violations of thelaw astoreadsand bridges being in bad condition were explained at length. Gambling houses were next referred te, and the officers instructed te ascertain the keepers of the same, seize the apparatus used for gambling and report the same te tbe court. They were also instructed as te their (luties In dealing with bawdy, tippling and disorderly houses. The sections of tbe Brooks high licence law defining tbe duties of constables were read and cemmeuted upon. The court called attentien te tbe sovero penalties prescribed for failure of constables te per form the duties of this act, which are a sus pension from office, and upon conviction for negligent or fraudulently making a falae return, tbe penalty Is a fine of (1,000, or Imprisonment for two years. In commenting en the penalty prescribed the court said there waa a reason why tbe previsions should be enforced. Licensed landlords pay a high price for the privilege of engaging in tbe liquor business and they have a right te protection, and it is the duty of the conslable te protect the licensed land lord by reporting persons who violate tbe law and tbe court will expect the consta bles te de their duty. In conclusion the tramp law was referred te and the constables told what their duty waa aa te this class of vagabonds who are tramping evor the county living by beg ging and stealing and willing te de any thing but work. DISPOSED OF WITHOUT TRIAL. A verdict of net guilty was taken in tbe case of commonwealth vs. Win. L. Uardner. The defendant was charged with larceny en complaint of Jehn 1. Welse and tbe subject matter of tbe larceny was legs that floated te Weise's Island in tbe freshct of last June. Welse claimed the legs becauae he owned tbe property and Gardner be cause be was the tenant. The district at torney stated that the larceny case could net be made out, as tbe defendant took the legs under a claim of right and the above disposition was made of tbe case. A similar disposition was made of tbe conspiracy case against Addison Eby et. al. The defendants made restitution and the material witness for the commonwealth is In Kansaa and could net be gotten here. In tbe suit against Andrew Kane, viola tion of liquor law, a verdict of net guilty was entered. The guilty party was the wife and she is new serving a term for the offense.

Sketch or HI Ufa and Merrleee m Con Cen creeeaaaa. Ooveraer ad Director efthe Mint. James Pollock, ex-governor of Pennsyl vania, who died In Leck Uaven en Satur day, wm bera In the borough of Milten, iiunaimuHiuiu county, r-ennsyivania, September 11, 1810. His rather died when the future governor wee but eeven yaara old, leaving hie widow with four aena and three daughters. James was the youngest eon, and his early training waa frenfhis mother, who Uvea te see her eon famous. He paaeed his early youth at private schools, In which he waa fitted for college. He entered the Junier class at Piinoeten and graduated with the highest honors of his class In September, ML He Immedi ately entered upon the study of law In his native town, with Samuel Hepburn, and waa admitted te the bar of Northumber land county In November, 1833. In the following April he opened a law office In Milten, and entered upon a successful legal career. He waa appointed district attorney of Northumberland county for 1835. Twe years afterwards he married Sarah Ann. the daughter of hla law preceptor, and had apparently settled down te a permanent law practice. Hla real career, however, was te be a publle one, for which be In some measure prepared himself by an active participation in politics. A Whist, llvlmr In a Democratie county and congressional district, there did net seem te be much chance for hla po litical advancement, but se great waa hla personal popularity that when given the Whig nomination for Congress In 1814 In the Thirteenth congressional district he waa elected by a geed majority and twice re-elected, serving In the Twenty-eighth, Twenty-ninth and Thirtieth Congresses, He waa a member of the committee en claima during his first term and of the committee en territories durinir the second. Stephen A. Douglas being one of his col leagues. During hla last term he waa a member of the committee en waya and means, wbleh waa compelled te provide for tbe expenses of the Mexican war which had but Just closed. On June 21, 1848, Mr. Pollock offered a resolution for the appointment of a special committee te Inquire Inte the necessity and expedience nt constructing a railroad te the Pacific coast, tbe United States hav ing acquired California by the war. Aa chairman eftbe committee he made a re port favoring the building or such a read, tbe first official recommendation or a pro ject which was destined te be successfully completed within a period or a llttle mere than 20 years. Se thoroughly waa Mr. Pollock Imbued with the idea that the read could and would be built that in an address delivered at Lewlsburg that year he said: " At the risk of being considered Insane I will venture tbe prediction that in less than 23 years from thia evening a railroad will he completed and In operation be tween New Yerk and San Francisce, Cal., that a line of steamships will be established between San Francisce, Japan and China, and there are new in my audience ladies who will, before tbe expiration of tbe period named, drink tea brought from China and Japan by thia route te thelr own doers." Tbe read was finished in 1809, four years Inside the limit fixed by this prophetic ut terance, and Mr. Pollock passed ever It two years later and waa glven au ovation In San Francisce as tbe prophet eftbe Pacific railroad. Retiring from Congress of his own accord at the end of hla third term, he waa ap pointed president Judge of the Eighth Ju dicial district in 1850, serving until the adoption of the amendment te the consti tution making the Judges elective. In 1854 be waa nominated for governor by the Whigs and Native Americans, and was elected by a majority of 37,007 ever Gover Gover eor William Bigler, his Democratie com cem com Setiter. He was inaugurated governor anuary 19, 1855, hia term expiring Jan uary 10, 1858, Among the important mea sures of his administration were the sale of tbe canal system of the state, a reduction of tbe debt of tbe state or about 110,000,000, and tbe passage efa serie-t of acts that gave Pennsylvania a vigorous and efficient school system. In tbe fall of 1857 tbe finan cial crisis led te the calling of the Legisla ture in special session te legalize tbe sus pension of specie payments for a limited term, thus saving the banks of the state from a ruinous crash. Governer Pollock retired from the governorship with the re spect of tbe people regardless of partv. In bis message te the Legislature while governor, he advocated what afterwards ecame the platform of the Republican party, holding that, while slavery could net be constitutionally disturbed In tbe states where It then existed, It should net be ex tended te the territories. Upen tbe forma tion of tbe Republican party, therefere, it was but natural that Governer Pollock should ally himself with it. He was con servative, however, and was selected by the friends of peace and reconciliation te repre sent Pennsylvania In the peace conference which met In Washington during the winter or 1801 and adopted the Crittenden compromise, resolutions which Congress failed te accept, owing te tbe wide diver gence between tbe members from the two sections In May, 1801, he was appointed director of the mint by President Llncolen, holding tbe office until October 1, 1860, when he re signed. He waa the author er the national motto " In Ged We Trust, " which appears upon the Federal coins. On tbe accession of Grant te the presidency In 1809, he was again appointed director of tbe mint, re taining the position until the reorganization eftbe mint In 1873, and the appointment of Dr. Llnderman as director, when he was made superintendent of tbe mint in Phila delphia. He was appointed naval officer at Philadelphia In 1879, holding the position until 1883, when he was succeeded by E. II. Nevln. In 1880 he was appointed federal chief supervisor of elections, the last public office he ever held. ROSS POSTER'S ItACKET. lie Bombards a Heuse, Breaks tbe Fur niture aud Is Finally Arrested.

DIED VERY SUDDENLY. GIilQr. W. 1CFMA6LI, 1 WILL IKIWR CITIZEN, A TICTIM IF HUT 11SE1SI. He la Strlekea Sunday Moraine While Attending te Ilia Duties aa Baggage Master ta the Pennsylvania Depot. The many friends or Geerge W. Huff nagle, night baggage master at the Penn sylvania railroad passenger elation, were pained and shocked te learn of hia very sudden death which occurred la tbe station ahertly before three o'clock en Sunday morning. The man dropped ever and must have died almost Instantly. Ne one eaw him fall, as-the aummena came very quickly. Mr. Hnffnaglewaa In the best of spirits en Saturday night and Sunday morning. He did his usual work at the station snd Joked with the people around, aa waa hla custom. When the 230 train, which waa about ten mluutea late, came in Mr. Huff- nagle helped F. D. Stelnhauser, the assist ant baggage master, and Frank Lelbfried, a track walker, te lead the effecta of Dun can B. Harrison's " Paymaster ' company, which was going away. Tbe company carries quite a large let of baggage, scenery, 4c., and the men were about eight mtnutea leading it. Although Mr. Huffnagle assisted, he did net have any thing te de that would cause him te over ever oxert himself. Messrs. HuflTnagle and Stelnhauser have for aeveral years been carrying the mall between the Pennsylva nia railroad station and the posteffice. When the train pulled eat Mr. Stelnhauser sorted tbe mall and spoke te Mr. Haffnagle at tbe deer of tbe ladles' room, Inte which the latter went te aoe what time It waa. Stelnhauser placed the mall en a truck and started te the postefflco, after he had given Mr. Huffnagle a tie sack. Tbe latter went at once te the baggage room where he was seen a few mementa afterwards by Lelbfried, who went te the room for his lamp and speke te htm. Mr. Stelnhauser waa net geno much ever five minutes, and when he returned te the station he went at once te the baggage room. The deer of the partition waa open and when Stelnhauser entered it he waa aurprlsed te soe a man 1 ing en tbe fleer en his back In the rear eftbe room, and almost Immediately in front of the desk which the baggagemaster uses. He saw at once that it was Mr. HuCfnagle aa tbe loiters which he had Just taken from the train and his cap were lying beside bim en the fleer. Stoinbauser thought that the man had fainted but a closer examination showed him that some thing much mere serious 'was tbe trouble. He quickly unbuttened Mr. Huffnagle's cellar and rubbed hla face. He called in Railroad Officer Rey and also sent for Dr. Albright, who lives near by and was Mr. Huffnagle'a family physician. It was tee late, however, for any hepe, aa the man was already dead. When tbe doc tor arrived he pronounced tbe cause of his death heart disease. Fer a couple or wceka Huffnagle had been complaining of neural gia caused by two teeth tbat he had had pulled. The physician said that he waa subject te something like heart disease Corener llenaman was notified and he summoned a Jury consisting of Frank Wicgand, Edward Gasten, Edward Cald well, Frederick Fisher, Jehn Rey and Harry Yeung. They rendered a verdlet of death from heart disease and the body was then taken te tbe home or the doceasod, en West Walnut street, near Charlette. The deceased was 50 years or age and was born In tills city, wbere he has. a mether and several siBtcrs and brothers. Fer mere than 25 years he bus held the position that he bad at the time or his death, and it must be Bald that no better man could be secured for It. He was kind and obliging te every body and would ke te any amount et trouble te de a favor for any one. He knew almost everybody and was popular with all that caine In contact with him about tbe station. He was respected by all. During the war the deceased served In the gallant 70th regiment, which came from this city and county, und these who knew him well in tbe army say that he was one or tbe best soldiers that ever should ered a musket. He was a member or Pest 405, G. A. R., which he hoi pod te organize. He has frequently held office in the pest aud took a great deal of interest In it. He was also a member of Conestego Council Amerlcan'Mechanics, Ledge Ne. 88 Knights of Pytblas and Monterey Ledge or Odd Fellows. He was also a member or Penn sylvania Railroad Rellef association. He leaves a wife, who has been an Invalid for years, but no children. His mother, who is new ever 80 years or age, made her home with him. He was a first-class man in every respect, and will be missed as much as any man in the town that could have died. JOE EMMET'S TROUBLH. Ills Wire Applying; Fer a Dlvorce Frem the Aoter.
