fell, taking the other down with it.

Judge Archbfild turned his attention,

mended hlin to the mercy of the court;
but Judge Archbald told Hemdey that
he was not entitled to any mercy. The

costs of prosecution, and a period of
fourteen months In the Eastern peni
tentiary. Th highest punishment for
bigamy Is two years' Improsomneril.

RillSKY IS A FREE MAN
He Was Acquitted oF the Murder of
Old Mun August Gnus.
JURY DELIBERATED P1VE HOURS
Verdict Was Rendered in Court ut 7.50
Snturday l.vcnlii-No Other Charges
Against Prisoner Trlul of lohn
Kosttfiky Will Proceed ToJuy.
Five hours after the trial had ended
on Saturday the Jury in tho case of
Joseph llumlnlsky, churged with the
murder of August Gnus nt Archbald
last September, returned with a verdict
oi' acnuittnl.
Judge Archbald finished Ills charge a
few minutes after 2.30 In Hie afternoon,
nnd the Jury retired to deliberate. At
7.20 the foreman of the Jury, Wllllum
K. P.onnott, untitled Tipstaff F.vans
that a verdict hail been arrived ul, and
word was Immediately sent to Judue
Archbuld. A telephone message was
sent to the county Jail and the prisoner
was brought down. When It wits known
that the Jury hail ugreed the court
house bell wits tolled und crowds were
attracted to hear the result. At ten
minutest to eight District Attorney John
R. Jones arrived, and Judge Archbald
ordered the Jury to be brought Into
court. In the ubsence of Deputy Clerk
of the Courts Thomas P. Daniels the
verdlot was taken by Attorney M. W.
Lowry.
Judge Archbald lead the verdict and
recorded It on the docket; It was then
read aloud to the Jury by Attorney
Lowry. Judge Archbuld thanked the
Jurymen for their patient consideration
of the case and discharged them from
further attendance at tho term. Court
then asked District Attorney Jones If be
had any other charge against the pris
oner, und Mr. Jones said he hail not.
Rumluisky was, therefore, discharged
und he walked out of the court room
with an elastic step and buoyant air.
Close of the ( use.
No witnesses were heard on Satur
day and Attorney McGlnley opened his
argument for the defense at 9.15, oc
cupying the time until 11 o'clock. The
address was an able one und presented
In a clear light to the Jury the proofs
adduced of the defendant's Innocence.
District Attorney Jones began his ar
gument for the commonwealth and cov
ered all the evidence fully, but did not
elaborate. He concluded u few minutes
before noon.
Judge Archbald charged the Jury In
the afternoon. He explained the law
us It deals with murder and reviewed
the evidence of the case. He expressly
stated that if the Jury had a reason
able doubt as to the defendant's guilt,
he should receive the benefit of that
doubt and be ucqultted; he should also
be entitled to the benefit of any reas
onable doubt In regard to the degree
of guilt. The verdiot is a brilliant vic
tory for Attorney McGlnley, who
fought single handed for Rumlnlsky
and was rewarded with success.
One fact was very forcibly Illustrated
in the Rumluisky trial, which was that
Johnny Gaus is the one who should
have been on trial for his life, It is
reported that n thorough search
throughout this region lias failed to ills
cover aught of his whereabouts; but
the officers of the law should not relax
their vigilance until the unnatural
youth shall have been brought to Jus
tice. Itostosky Murder Case.
Another murder case will be tried
beginning with today. Judge Albright,
of Allentown. will sit on the bench nnd
John RoHtosky will be called to answer
for the death of Joseph flute, at the
Ridge, near Archbald, on Sundey morn
ing, Sept. ;fi. The commonwealth will
contend for a verdict of murder in the
first degree, and the defense will urge
self-defense as Justification for the act.
On Saturday afternoon the jurors for
last week were detained and n Jury
was selected to try Itostoslcy. Out of
the jurors attending court eleven were
accepted, and Judge Archbuld ordered
Sheriff ('lemons to draw six talesmen
and the following were returned: Will
iam J. Scott, H. A. Depuy, John P.
N'olan, William Krels. Samuel Si horner
and William Toy. Mr. Schorner was
the second one examined and he was
selected. The names of the Jurymen

tion by Attorney John M. Corbett.
In discharging the jurors of lust
week, except, of course, those held in
the Rostosky murder trial, Judge Arch
bald stated from the bench that In
consequence of the many important
cases before Hie court, It was necessary
to continue the courts of nyer nnd ter
miner for nnother week nnd cull In tho
Servian of a strange Judge to preside.

NEWS OF TIIK SOITH SIDE.
Residents of the f lats Are Afraid of a
rreshct When the Snow Begins to .Melt.
I(u nu way on 1'ittston Avenue.
Apprehension Is rife among the resi
dents of the lower flats that a thaw Is
about to occur, und as this has been
the most remarkable winter In twenty
five years with regard to the ciuuntlty
of snow that has fallen, these people
have very substantial reasons for an
ticipating with terror the breaking up
of the weather, for It means to each
ona of them a loss of hundreds of dol
lars In stock ai)d damage to property.
Tho high temperature of the past two
days has melted so much snow that
the Lackawanna river and the creeks
tributary thereto have risen quite rup
idly. With the amount of snow now on the
gruund a rain storm would mean sim
ply a devastating freshet. Along Pitts
ton nvenue. and. In fact, all the streets
of the South Side the snow blocks the
culverts.. Strett Commissioner Kirst,
fearful of a thuw, started a large force
of men to work on Pittston avenue
Saturday clearing flip ditches. On Wil
low and Hickory streets the property
owners have cleared away the snow
und erected wooden barricades to turn
off the wa.ter from their cellars. On
South Wyoming avenue the residents
have done nothing, but hope that the
thaw will come gradually und not in one
Bweep.
County Commissioner lietn tub's lllrthdiiy
Thursday will the fortieth anniver
sary of County Commissioner John De
muth's birthday, and the occasion will
be made pleasant for his friends by the

the fact that Mr. Demuth is to be the
host, the invited ones can rest assured
of an evening of enjoyment of high
degree. His reputation for genuine hos
pitality is nut surpassed by that of

COMING SPRING INSPECTION
Dates for the Thirteenth Kcglmcnt Will

An order was published from head
quarters at Hurrlsburg for spring In

The Inspectors will be under direction
of Colonel Kdwurd Morrell, Inspector
general, und the time will be designat

The order provides transportation for

New Armory Opened.
On Feb. the Thirteenth regiment,
National Guard, Htute or New York,
located ut ISrooklyn, L. I., had their
opening reception In celebration of the
opening of their new armory. Why
could our new armory not have been
a reality before this? They have done
well who went so far us to secure plans
and the ground for It. Wonder If our
friends think We are in the ranks for
the fun of It. If so, it would be of in
terest to them to take a peek into the
urmory or cumn now and then.
The state legislature might do worse
than appoint a committee to accompa
ny the Inspector in his rounds this
spring.
Judging from reports, we would con
clude tbut New York State troops fared
poorly well at the hands of their quar
termasters and commissaries during
Ilrooklyn's late Blege. Their biennial
encampments at Pcekskill don't, It
seems to us, teach them what the men
should know very much of that of pre
paring food for themselves while in
the field. A correspondent for the Army
and Navy Journal tells what he found
upon making a visit of a few days with
the boys soon nfter they got Into the
Held. He tells of three companies of
the Twenty-third regiment that as
sembled In the armory on the night of
Jan. IS. who went out early next morn
ing und got nothing to eat until noon.
! Not so bad this, but the pour fellows
had no blunkets for three days. They
did have two knives and forks to eigh
ty men. and two Kpoons. Then, too,
they had the hardihood to complain
that canned beef was Issued without
can openers.
The Difference in Men.
Pennsylvania soldiers would have
ripped the thing open with a bayonet if
that was all there was to bother. After
many days of suffering someone, 1 be
lieve they say it was the inspector gen
eral, gave out the information that
a full supply of blankets, camp-kettles,
mess pans, tin plates and even can
openers were stored in the arsenal in
New York city. So most of the trouble
appears to have been that some of the
general stuff officers were incompetent.
New York guardsmen like to be com
pared with Pennsylvania guardsmen,
and our competent, but one-uniformed
militiamen nre often subject to much
ridicule at the hands of "Ye knlcker
bocker brethren," but when we go into
tho field the boys will put up with cof
fee and hard-tack for days, and be de
lighted with a plum pudding made of
hard-tack nnd dried prunes, boiled in
an old stocking, such as Chief Simp
son tells of.
An Interesting article relative to the
"National Guard's Signal corps" was
published In yesterday's Philadelphia
Press. The Signal corps Is a new ad
junct to 'the National guard and wns
originated at Homestead. During the
encampment nt Gettysburg last sum
mer the Signal corps might have been
seen ut drill every day. They are uni
formed In dark brown waterproof duck,
brown leggings nnd dark ciinipnlgn hat,
which was planned by the leading spirit
In the organ inn t Ion of this signal conjis.

Mnkc t'p of the Corps.
The maximum allowance of men Is
foi'ty-llve, 'though but twenty arc en
listed for the service at present. They
Incluile engineers, electricians, practical
telegraph operators, a locomotive engi
neer, machinists, clerks, etc. There arc
now about INO applicants on file for
membership from all parts of the state.
It Is proposed to recruit the corps up
to forty-live, twenty to be mounted as
cavalry, six on bicycles and the remain
ing nineteen ns footmen or on trains
with the flying telegraph.
It Is expected that every man shall
attend drill from now on to Inspection
and no excuscn will he given by llje
captains unless tin reason be urgent.
