* Variety of Goods Prized by
Boys Taken From Logan
and Company's Store
Lcwlslonn, Pa., Doc. II. —During
Monday night the Logan and Com
vany store at Burnham was entered
and robbed. Entry was gained by
forcing a window that led to the
cellar of the store, and front there
x- the thieves made their way upstairs.
They stole shoes, raincoats, Knives,
jewelry, etc. The goods taken were
of the kind valued by boys. Only a j
few cents in money were taken, all
that was left in a cash drawer when
the store closed for the day.
Evidence that the robbers were
boys was brought to light when an
old pair of boy's shoes was found
near the store yesterday morning, j
The lad had most likely taken off his
old shoes to put on a pair of new
ones. Several pen knives also lay
near where the old shoes were found.
Four boys passing the jail yester
dav afternoon were seen by the wife
of' Sheriff Davis. Their actions
aroused suspicion and Mrs. Da\ is
sent two men after the boys and
they were lodged in jail.
Chal LeFever. aged 23 years, and
Ramon Hartzler. aged 20. of Me-;
Vevtown. have been placed in the i
Mifflin county jail charged with!
stealing brass from the Standard J
Steel Works at Burnham. where the!
men were employed. The arrest was,
made by Captain Hinkle. of thej
Standard Steel Works police, the
men being caught with the goods in
their possession. LcFever admitted
his guilt, declaring it was his custom
to fill his dinner bucket with brass
and carry it home in the evening.
In his statement he implicated a
man by the name of Soles. All three j
were given a hearing before Justice
of the Peace McWilliams. of Burn
ham. who sent them to jail for court. I
Boys in Shaw avenue yesterday
morning went along from house to
house and stole the money rut out
with mi'k jars for the milkman. The
approach of the dealer put the
youngsters to flight. The boys were
seen, but made good their escape.

IN RIVER COAL
i.> —.
, York Haven Firm Takes Out
Thousands of Tons of Fuel
!
From Susquehanna Beds
tork. Haven, Dec. 11. —That the
coal dredging industry is a paying
! enterprise is made significant through
: the successful operations during the
past summer and fall months by the
i firm of McGready and Krout, of York
, Haven. Tens of thousands of tons of
coal were taken from the bottom of
the Susquehanna river by this con
cern, which operates probably one of I
the largest coul fleets In this section
'of the state. Dredging for the win
ter has been discontinued and the
fieet of barges, derricks and flats is
now being removed to a place of
safety from the ice jam. The Mc-
Gready & Krout concern has disposed
of ail its coal to the York Haven
Water and Power Company and York
Haven #Paper Company, while soiue
of the supply was shipped to \ork.
The coal dredging firm of Brunner
& Kephart. a more recently organized
! concern, is continuing to dredge for
the fine coal. WYith the raising of
the river they will soon be obliged
to abandon the work. Their coal is
consumed by York and Harrisburg |
, purchasers. Notwithstanding the ex-!
' tensive operations during the past j
i year there continues to be a heavy
I deposit of coal on the river beds i
| it is said.
