Hostelry to Go Under
Sheriff's Hammer
Would you caw
that have weighed at one time or
other many of the pretty witnesses in
a rather notorious case in the Dauphin
county courts?
Or a multiphone?
Or some beer mugs?
Or a cuspidor or two?
The chance will be offered by Sheriff
H C. Wells on Friday morning, Feb
ruary 17. At 9 o'clock that morning
the furnishings of the Hotel Menger,
formerly the old United States, are to
go under the sheriff's hammer. The
piano and other furnishings and fix
tures helped make the "Rose Garden"
so attractive in a certain way as to
bring the hotel management within
the clutches of the law. And the ,
Dauphin County Court revoked the j
license of the proprietor, Angelo
Boschelll. Some highly edifying tes
timony of the doings of the patrons
of the Rose Garden were told on the
witness stand. Among other things
significantly dwelt upon by the district
attorney was the character of the rag
time selections pounded out by the
electric piano. Since Boschelli's place
was closed he has gone into the hands
of the sheriff.
City lias lots of Money.—Harris
burg isn't, or wasn't, so badly off

—ln order to clear the calendar as

the county by the Northern Central
Railway, the Summit Branch Mining
and Railroad Companies, will be held
by Sheriff H. C. Wells March 5. All
told there are twenty-two properties
to be sold.
llnril to Dig Out of Jail.—Just liow
unsatisfactory and laborious a job it
would be to tunnel one's way through
the walls of the Dauphin county jail
will be learned definitely when the
County Commissioners award the con
tract for the changing of the lower
tier prison windows. The plans as
submitted by the Prison Inspectors
have been approved by the commis
sioners and as soon as they are ap
proved by the State Board of Charities
and Corrections the contract will be
let. The masonry walls are more than
two feet thick.
