An Intoxicated Man With a Revolver
Makes Trouble.
An Intoxicated man boarded an elec
tric car on Monday evening and disre
garding the rules of the company con
tinued to smoke his cigar. Conductor
K. J. Thomas remonstrated with him
and urged attention to the rules. But
when the passenger in an Insolvent
manner defied the conductor, Mr.
Thomas immediately seized the cigar
and threw it into the street. Then the
Intoxicated man jumping up struck the
conductor and when efforts were made
to eject him from the car drew a re
volver. The passengers becoming somewhat
frightened, at once made efforts to
leave. However, Constable Gllby and
C. S. Alexander disarmed the drunken
man who was taken to the station
house. Yesterday morning he was held
by Alderman Jones in $500 bail for his
appearance at court. The man gave
his name as Hiram Powers, and claimed
to be a resident of Jermyn.
CRANE'S NARROW ESCAPE.
A Portion of the Roadbed tinder Ills
Team Gives Way.
Monday evening Michael Crane, a
driver for the Carbondale brewery, had
a very thrilling experience near the
Delaware and Hudson fan house.
As he was driving along the street a
portion of the road bed gave away. As
the weight of the horses was put on it,
it began to sink slowly and as the
horses stepped on firm ground the earth
fell down about fifty feet to the bottom
of the shaft. The hind wheel was still
in the hole when Mr. Crane unhitched
the team and went to the brewery for
help. Of late there have been a number
of cave-ins on this street, which is a
new one built quite recently by the
Delaware and Hudson company.

Pure blood, strong nerves and mus

from Wholesome food well digested.
"Blood purifiers" and "nerve tonics" do
not reach the cause of the mischief.
The stomach is the point to be looked
after. The safest and surest way to
cure any form of indigestion Is to take
after each meal some harmless prepara

There is an excellent preparation of
this kind composed of vegetable es
sences, pure pepsin, Golden Seal and
fruit salts, sold by druggists under
name of Stuart's Dyspepsiav Tablets
and these tablets taken after meals
assist digestion wonderfully because
they will digest the food promptly before
it has time to ferment and sour and the
weak stomach relieved and assisted
in this way soon becomes strong and
vigorous, again.

WILKES-BARRE.
CLARENCE GUNTON HELD UP.
He lias a Narrow Escape frost Death
on Pettibone Flats.
Sunday night between $.30 and 10
o'clock, while on his way home from
Willkes-Barre, Clarence Gunton nar
rowly escaped death at the bands of an
unknown person. The circumstances
surrounding the assault are substanti
ally these: Mr. Gunton Is employed
and boards at Geo. E. Fancourt's green
houses on the fiats near the Pettebone
shaft. He came over to this ctty and
as there was no conveyance to take him
near his boarding place, he decided to
walk. He went over the North street
bridge, thence following the road which
the hucksters and miners take and
which goes through a stretch of woods
on the upper side of the road. He had
reached the spot where the Wilkes
Barre and Eastern trestle spans the
road, when suddenly from behind one of
the upright pillars which support the
trestle, a man appeared. He said not a
word, but pointed a revolver and fired,
the bullet striking Gunton in the fleshy
part of the leg near the thigh.
Gunton then drew his revolver and
when his assailant saw It he disap
peared in the woods. Gunton fired a
few shots at the retreating form, but
whether they took effect or not is not
known. Gunton managed to get to his
boarding place, and as soon as possible
a party was formed headed by Consta
ble Davis, who found three suspicious
looking characters lying In a neighbor
ing cornfield. One of them carried a
revolver, but It was impossible to tell
whether or not he is the person wanted.
They were all put under arrest and are
in Jail pending an examination.
Arabians Arrested.
At 5 o'clock Monday morning the po
lice at Hazleton arrested two Arabians
nt the Valley hotel, who were sus
pected of being connected with the rob
bery of a clothing store in this city
some weeks ntto. Om of them early
Sunday evening offered to sell Officer
Davis a watch, and this aroused sus
picion. One of them Is a resident of
Freeland and the other of this city,
and each was armed with a handsome
Ivory-handled revolver. They were
given a hearing before Acting Mayor
Heidenrelch and fined J10.50 each for
carrying concealed weapons.
