jamcs MeGlna Meets Death While Bold!
Driven tojnu.
a nvwir vpsterday moraine,
while Jamil McGinn "was: bring
driven to the county Jul!, he laid batk
In the wacun. and a moment later,
when Otllcer Baldts went to arouse
him, he found he was dead.
The deceased was arrested at Z
oVlock yesterday morning at the corner
of Lincoln and iMarKf I streets ior ui.t
orderly conduct, die was, at the time
he was arrested, suffering from a mild
attack of delirium tremens, but was
not violent. After being locked uu
he seemed to grow quietand made no
disturbance during the remainder of
the night. In the morning when the ceil
door was opened McvSinn was found
with clothing tifr. yet eemingiy ra
t''na! of mind. The policemen dressed
him. and noticing his wean conuuion,
dlsrntehed a messeiicer for Dr Long.
who came at once, gave him some
brandy, und told ..Mayor Nichols to lane
the man somewhere for treatment.
iMi'iVr.n was suffering from alcoholism,
and his heart was beating rather lr
reirulnrlv. bnt otherwise his condi
tio:! was not alarming. By order of
the mayor he was taken to the Jail to
be treated by the prison physician.
The urlsoner walked strongly and en-
tered the patrol wugon wlthont assis
tance. He talked to the officers on the
way to the Jail, and neither of them
suspected that the man was near death.
At the prison yard while waiting for the
door to be opened, otneer names sug
gested that he lay down and rest. Mc
Uinn did so and a few mlnutei after
ward when tho officers went to arouse
him, they found that he was dead.
The remains were at once taken to
his home on Whiskey Hill, and the
house was neat and comfortable
throughout. He was a hard worker
and had been employed as blacksmitn
at the Empire mine for twenty years
past, and although frequently dis
charged for drinking, was Immediate
ly re-employed when he sobered up.
He was the best blacksmith In the
employ of the Lackawanna and Wilkes
Tiarre Coal company and had the repu
tation of being the most competent
shoer In the valley.
McGinn's one weakness was drink
lie would frequently stay sober for six
months, and then go on a spree of a
week. The last one, which terminated
fatally, was begun last Saturday, when
he left home and had not been seen by
his family until his body was taken
home. Jle was 43 years old. was born
in Ireland and had been In Wilkes
dtarre for twenty-four years. He leaves
a wife and three children, all adults.
THE TIME EXTENDED.
Owing to tho Delay In the Tax Duplicates
More Time Is Given.
Yesterday was the last day for ob
taining the 5 per cent, rebate on taxes,
but owing to the efforts. of Tax Re
ceiver Chase, It was extended until
Aug. 24. He called the attention of the
city council, the poor board, the school
board and the county commissioners to
t'lie fact that there had been an unusual
delay In getting the duplicates Into the
hands of the proper persons, which nat
urally reduced the time for the pay
ment of taxes. vAt Tuesday's meeting
of council a resolution was passed pro
viding for the extension, but It was
contingent on the concurrence of the
school board. Director Smythe was in
Pottsvllle and could not be communi
cated with In time. But after some
hustling the following document was
secured:
Wilkes-Bar. Pa., Aug. 14, 1895.
E. "H. Chase, receiver of taxes:
Dear Sir As members of the school
board of this city, we authorize you to
extend the time during which the 5 per
cent, abatement of taxes may be al
lowed to Aug. 14. inclusive.
This action will be ratified at the next
meeting of the board.
O. W. Outhrle. W. O. Weaver, E. J.
Butler and Ed. Mackln.
The omission of Mr. Ilouser's name Is
explained by the fact that he could not
be found.
The poor board met yesterday morn
ing, as did the county commissioners,
and both bodies were unanimous in
a -eelng to the extension.
Yesterday's Accidents.
Thomas Burns, a driver boy in No.

pany, had his thumb cut off and the
rest of his hand badly lacerated yes
terday by a car. The boy was taken
