ROBBERY AND MURDER.
Bold Attempt to Rob the tacchbtirs;
Bank A Courageous Citizen.
Shot through !he
Heart.
Tbe tno of Leechhurg, on the
West Penn. railroad, five miles above
Allegheny Junction, has been ia) a
turmoil of excitement during the
past week. On the eveuiug of elec
tion a bold attempt was made to rob
the Leechhurg Banking Co 's tank.
About 9 o'clock Charles Asbbaugh', a
printer on the Leechhurg Advance.
while in tbe rear part of the office,
happened to look out and saw three
men engaged in forcing an entrance
through tbe back window of the bank.
He at ooce ran to the Council cham
ber aud notified Constable Nicholas
Culler. The Utter at once started
for the scene accompanied by Win.
Shaefer. At the rear of the bank
ihev met three men who rushed out
of the door, at the same time opening
fire on iheir pursuer'. Several shots
were exchanged between the robbers
and the constable. Shaefer had no
revolver. A bullet from one of the
robbers' revolver struck Shaefer, pass
tug through his heart and killing
him almost instantly.
In tbe excitemeut over Shaffer's
death the robbers came near nuking
good their escape. Two of them
were caught, however, after a desper
ate chaso They were brought back
to Lech burg, and next day had a
hearing, aod were bustled off to Kit
tauuiug jail as quickly as possible to
save them from the fury of the peo
ple, who would hare made short
work of them had not the officers
used every ruse to get them away,
shaefer was a member uf tbe town
council, a highly respected citizeu,
aud leaves a wife aud four small
children. The wife is almost crazed
with grief.
The two meu who were caught
give their oames as Chares Sprague
and William Ryan. Atlhecuruuer'a
inquest many facta came to light
which implicated Dr. G S WyckoO,
a resideut of Iechburg, at whose
bouse it was shown that at least oue
of the robbers had stayed tbo uight
before tbe attempt was made, and it
is believed that all were harbored
there. The evideuco adduced was so
airong against Wytkoff that he was
n the following day arrested iu Al
legheny, whither he had goue, assuid,
to correct some misstatements iu the
Pittsburg Times connecting bis uame
with the affair. Tbe feeling over the
discovery of such strong evidence of
the Doctor's implication was so great
tbat tbe officers thought it unsafe to
bring him back to Leechburg, aud
therefore conveyed bim direct to Kit
tanning and lodged bim iu jail.
Great crowds bad gathered at tbe de
pot to give tbe Dr. a warm recptioti
oo his arrival aud one man hud se
cured a rope with noose and all ar
ranged, eveu to soapiug it, which ii
was intended to throw over bis head,
aud then cast tbe loose eud iuto the
criwd. This would have beeu
enough. But the officers of the law
averted tbis by their precaution iu
taking him direct to Kittauiiiug
Tbe third party seen coming out ol
the bank has trnt boen caught. Dr.
Wyckoff is said to be a card Bharp,
aud it seems has been running a sort
of poker joint at bis house for some
time. He is quite well kuowu. iu
Bradford aod other oil region towns
of Pennsylvania.
He explains his connection with
the other meu by saying tbat bo
knew Ryan as a poker plsyrr, and
that he hud introduced him into a
game at Lirchbuig. He disclaims
any connection with the robbery
On the other hand, it is alleged, thai
the doctor had a previous plau for
the robbery of the Leechhurg bank.
It is said that there is still anothet
party at large who is concerned io
the affair. Some think the story of
a fourth party was concocted by
Ryan and his pals to divide the re
sponsibility of firing the shot. Dr
Wyk"ff's reputation is not a good
one. He comes of a good family in
Buffalo, but wus cast off on account
of bad habits.
Ilenlli of Albert Kenlston.
Joseph Albert Kenistnn died at his
home, in Tlonesta, Feb. 24, 1893, a
11:00 o'clock p. in., of heart disease,
sged 48 years. Mr Ketiiston was
horu in Fre-'pot't, Armstrong county,
P i , and in 1801, when Imi t 16 years'
of age enlisted in Co. I, 78th Pa.
V.'ls., und was discharged Nov. 4.
18G4. He served nine months in An
deisotiviilu prison, and at the time of
bis death was a pensioner, br reason
of a hrokeu down constitution caused
by the hardships of war aud pris"U
life. He had been a resident nf Tin
uesta about four years, during which
time he followed the painting trade
mostly. About four mouths ago he
was taken sick, unil for tbe greater
part of tlinl period was a severe suf
ferer. Mr. Kenislou was married to
Nettie, a daughter of the late J. F.
Connelly, Esq , of Stewarts Run
She, with two 8n8 and two daughters,
survives him. These buve the sym
pathy of all our people in their sad
bereavement.
The fuueral took place from the
late homo of the deceased on Sahbath
last, conducted by Rev. J R. Rank
in, and was attended hy a largo del
egation of the old comrades of the
Grand Army Post of tbis place.

In a late opinion tlio Supremo Court
says that an engineer on a railroad engine
in approaching a point where it is his
duty to sound tho whistle, as required by
Iho statute, observes near by on a high
way, a man struggling with a team of
horses hitched to a wagon, and can see
from the surroundings, that sounding a
whistle will make the team unmanagea
ble and greatly endanger tho team and
man, it Is bis duty to desist until the
danger point is passed, or if necessary to
stop the train, and If ho does not but
needlessly sounds the wliistleand permits
steam to escape, causing the horses to
run awav, the company is liable for tho
injuries inflicted.

"There is another, bettor world
