NOT GUILTY
VERDICT WAS DIRECTED BY
JUDGE AROHBALD.
Commonwealth Was Unable to Make
Clood Its Contention That Fanny
Brockway Was the Person Named
as Prosecutor nnd That She Had
Been Dead Several Months When
the Warrant' Was Issued Other
Cases Tried Bofore the Threo
Judges Yesterday.
lly direction of Judge It. VV. Areh
huld a verdict of not KUllty was taken
yesterday In the case of Alderman John
lmtes, of tho Hlevcnth ward, who was
chui-fred with Illegally drawing fees
from the county treasury.
The missing transcripts did not mi
tetlallze nnd as tho commonwealth was
not nble to show that tho prosecutrix
was Fanny Htockwny, not Fanny
IJrookwny its contended by tho defense,
Its case fell. Tho countv will pay tho
costs. There ate two other cases pend
ing against Lentcs.
tJ. Daniels, the county commls
sloneis' clerk, who was summoned to
this city by telcgiaph, went on the
stund after tho ease wiw taken tip yes
terday morning. He said he had not
been subpoenaed In the ensu und had
niT knowledge thnt lie would be wanted
when he left tho eltv to attend tho
funeral of a relative In Schuylkill
county, lie produced a receipt for 150
ti.inseilpts taken from the ofllce by C.
M. Dol.ontr. These had all been re
turned. Tlie one In tho llrockwny case
had not been Included In that list.
T. I J. Heynolds, who worked up tho
eases against the magistrates for the
eoninilsslonei.s, said he had the miss
ing tianseilnl In his posesslon at one
time, but leturued It to tho commis
sioner' oillee.
Foi the defense Clint Ich Mortz testi
fied that he served the warrant In the
ease. Fanny Urookway appeared at
the healing and charged Jennie Itob
b'lis, wltb whom she had boarded on
Miillieri" Ftreet for a time, with lar
eeny and leeelvlng. The charge was
mil iiride out and Ihe ease was dls
el,.iu"d Fanny Hioekwny was a
young woman about twenty yeais of
age. and belonged to the fast set.

h. no foi her. but has been unable to
find her. The Ilobblns womnn has left
the'e parts. Alderman Lentes was
i-ilbil and told of the Issuing of the
w.i tains end the heating.
Ap.ei hi le'tlmoiiy wns heard. Judge
Auhh.iM s.iid he did not see the use
nf going on Ith the case. Tho theory
of tii- commonwealth was that Fanny
I'.tniho.'ay. the alleged piost'CUtrix, had
bein dead tin several months before
the ai rant was Issued. The defense
tiMlilbdied that n Fanny Urookway
was the pmsecutil:: and that she ap
peiuid at the bearing. This disposed
of the eoniinoiiwenlth's contention, and
ho dlreited a veidlct of not guilty and
. la. ed t!i ts on the county.

Mis. Co.stollo denied having sold tho
agents of tho lengue anything stronger
than mot beer. Tho case was given to
the Jui M ,ri o'clock. It agreed fifteen

IN TUB AIR.
The Gorins of Lft Orlppo Are Con
veyed Through tho Atmosphere,
No ono enn escape the La Grippe
germ, because when nn epidemic of
tho disease Is prevailing tho air Is
laden with It.
Tho reason evetyono docs not have
tho d I sense at the samo time Is be
causo the persons who aro enjoying
perfect health are able to successfully
resist and throw off tho Infection,
w-hlle those, who for any reason are
not In the best of health, fall leady
victims.
Tho first symptoms nio those of
acute catarrh, resembling a hard cold,
and If prompt treatment Is applied at
this time It can easily be broken up;
one of the best remedies at this stage
Is Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, sold by
druggists everywhere nnd If taken
freely, say ono tnblet every hour ot
two for two or three days, tho danger
of pneumonia nnd serious complica
tions will bo averted.
Tho Ilev. L. i;. Palmer, Haptlst
clergyman of Ccresco, Mich., makes a
statement of Interest to all catarrh
and grip sufferers. He says: "Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets have certainly been a
blessing to me. I have used them
freely this fall and winter, nnd havo
found them u safoguatd against La
Grippe and catarrhal troubles, from
which I had suffered for years. I feel
that I can freely and conscientiously
recommend them."
Persons who suffer from catarih of
tho head and throat are very suscept
ible to La Grippe, and such will And
a pleasant, convenient and safe rem
edy In this new catarrh cuie.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets aro com
posed entirely of hatmlcss antiseptics
nnd may be used ns freely ns neces
sary, as they contain no cocaine, opl
nte or poisonous drug or any kind.
MASS MEETING MONDAY
MOTHER JONES TO ADDRESS
SILK MILL STRIKERS.
Speech Will Be Delivered in St.
Thomas College Hall Meeting
Will Be Open to the Public.
Arrangements are being mode for
the big mass meeting; which Is to bo
held Monday night, when "Mother
Mary" Jones, the well-known female
organizer of the Mine Workers, will
address the local striking silk milt
girls. The mectlnsr will bo a public
one, held at St. Thomas College hall,
but still by tho time that the strikers
have secured places for themselves
there will not bo n great deal of room
for any others, when the fact is con
sidered that there aro over three thou
sand striking girls In this Immediate
vicinity, who would try to see nnd
hear the famous female labor leader.
The strike situation remains the
samo. Dally meetings of the strikers
are held, but nothing in particular Is ,
done nt tlicm, and since Superintend
ent Davis polled the Sauquolt girls on
pny day, doings have been at a stand
still. A committee of the girls who
visited the Simpson mill -owneis weio
gieeted with tho promise that what
ever concessions were gi anted at tho
Sauquott would be duplicated at the
Mlnooka mill.
Today will bo pay day at the Simp
son, and employes In various of the
Harvey mill's departments will also
be paid. No offeis will bo made the
girls when they lepoit at the mills
for their pay, and no means will be
used to win or coerce them back to
work.
The Sauquolt haul nllk wctl.cis met
yesterday, as did also tho executive
committee. The case was mentioned
at both meetings of one of the Sau
quolt mill strikers who had gone back
to work. Kho Is a member of the
"picking" department, nnd woikcd nit

A WEST POINT MAN
Lieutenant Uowell Is n West Point
graduate of '00, and in the ootirso of
a convocation yesterday with n Trib
une man he cvpiessed some pietty
sound views about the subject ot
hnzlng. Among other things, ,ln. ex
ploded tho romance of Captain Se'ioef
fel, tho bmylng cadet who wns said
to hjivo gone through West Point
without being once hazed, and who In
his plebe year soundly tin ashed thir
ty other classmen who attempted to
amuse themselves with him. Lieuten
ant Howell Incidentally mentioned the
matter ns follows: "I suppose ytni
read In all the papers," he said, "about
Captain iSchoeffel, now out In tho
Philippines, wio took a com.3 in
prize fighting and then came on to
West Point from Rochester. You've
read about him, of course, and how
ho tht ashed live tipper class men. In
one day. Now, I was at West Point
from 'SO to '00, and I happen to know
tbe facts in tlie ensp.
"Captain Hchoeffel came to the acad
emy In 'S7, and dtnlng his couise the-e
l only know of one fight In which lu
wns engaged, nnd then be was snui'dly
and deservedly thiashed by jn Hilly
Hutts. Pchoeffel committed nn of
fense against all academy tiadltlons
one night In nnswetlng the sentiy
making the rounds, of the floor on
which he slept. In nnswetlng for his
loom, whether Its occupants weio safe
In bed, he replied to tho sentry's chal
lenge with 'all right.' tho customary
icaponse minim the 'sir. which it is
an unwritten law nt West Point thit
plebes should use In speaking to upper
classmen. The sentry, whoyo name
was Llnaid. said to him, 'Whv don't
you say 'All tight, sir?' and Schoef
ferl made a profane answer, tel
Ing hhn to go to a warmer locality.
HUTTS VOLUNTEERED
"Tho matter was not reported anv
further, but our class held a meet
ing, and legardlng tho matter as n di
rect Insult to every member, decided
that Schoeft'el ought to be piopetly
thrashed for It. A fellow named Hilly
Hutts volunteered to attend to tho
castlgatlnn. This Hutts was several
Inches shorter that Scho-ffe, and
about fotty pounds lighter, but ihe
result of this battle was far dlffetent
to wdiat has been generally reported
by the press,
"Hutts came out of It with only a
few bruises on his breast, but Schoef
fel had to be carried to the hospital.
The mill went seventeen i minds, and
was one of the hardest fought that
ever occurred ut th" iicndemy. Thebu
reports about Captain Schoeft'el have
been tenlhly tx.iirijeiutcd. 1 ii Is now
doing his dutv out In the Philippines,
like every gallant man, rml I doubt
If he would want these fiil&f Illinois
lo Rut about.
"Hozinir.however, has, 1 think, urowi
entirely out of bounds Hlnoe I left
"West Point, when there w.iy compani
tlvely llttlo tlont'. I think In n way
lis Kiowth may be attributed to tho
fact that so many younir men, slicntly
after imiduatlii!?. come b.u-U to thj
academy as Instructors. Thov :i'
