On Friday last James Gallagher, Wilbert Kaup and Roy Bracken, three good looking and well dressed young fellows, whose aged range from IS to 22 years, plfcad guilty to two charges of robbery made against them for assault ing and robbing two Slavs on the night ot April 21. The defendants told how they had gone to Lyndora to get liquor because Bracken, the youngest and largest, could not get liquor over the bars in Butler, how they were return ing through the Car Works field near Fairground Ave., Bracken walking in front, and the others about a rod be hind, when they met their two victims, knocked them down and took their money The Slavs appear to have been knocked down by Gallagher and Kanp first, and then Bracken came running back and knocked one of them down again. From one $75 was taken and from the other sls and a watch and chain Gallagher and Kanp claimed, when examined, that Bracken, who had confessed to the police after arrest, had taken the pocket book with the $75 in it and divided the spoils with them: but Bracken claimed Gallagher had gotten the pocketbook. Bracken admitted that ne had knocked one of the men down and had received $25 of the money. Gallagher had been before the Court twice belore, one of his offences being the taking of a dress off a dummy in tront of Troutman's store and parading it around, for which he served several months in the workhouse.

Both sentences were on the charge of stealing the $75, sen tence on the other charge being sus pended. Then the Court told Bracken that he was not satisfied as to the truth of his story, knew him and his friends, was sorry he was marking out the life for himself that he seemed to be, and stated that he wanted to make further inquiry before sentencing him, there fore sentence wa« suspended until June.

That new locks are needed in our jail was again demonstrated last Tuesday night, when another prisoner.a foreigner in iail on charges of assault and burg laTy, quietly unlocked everything and walked out. Duplicates of all the keys of the jail !tnd jail building seem to be in exist ence, and when a prisoner secures a set all he has to do is bide his time, and then walk ont. This man selected show night for going; and after he had been I )cked up for the night. unlocked him self through the Sheriff's apartments,in to the street, taking his keys with him, excepting one that stuck in the lock. The matter was kept quiet, but no trace of him has been discovered. His name is Adam Rossner, he ie a Crotian, about 5 feet 10, weighs abont 100, is dark complexioned, has dark hair and eyes, usually wears his face smooth, and is a very good looking fellow. John Mininger, yet at liberty, may liave been at the bottom of the trouble. Doings of Council, At the meeting of Council, Tuesday evening, the borough Auditor's report ivas received and held over for discus sion, as the auditors suT-charge several streets with the amounts received from the street car company for the paving uetween the tracks and which amounts :he auditors say should go into the borough treasury. It cost about £50.000 to run the town last year and will cost several thonsaud more this year. The millage for this year was tixed at 8 mills. Ordinances for the paving of [the fol lowing streets were adopted and bids Cor the improvements will be received at the next meeting: Walker Ave., Cliff St. between Cun ningham and Jefferson Sts., East Penn St. between Franklin Sts., East Pearl !?♦■ bpf-wppn OnV nnd Elm Sts. A petition for the paving of East Jef ferson St. between Monroe St. and the East line of the J. W. McKeelot, which is at a point near the quarry, was re ceived and an ordinance was ordered drawn- Mr. McGeary asked if council had not the authority to pwe the square between North McKean and North Main Sts. on East Penn. This petition Joes not cover this part of the street which will leave a big gap between two important thorotares. The chair suggested council had the power, but he believed it would be* better to wait until the street had been [>ave<l up to McKean and then council would be in a better position to go ihead and pave the gap. The small section of street at the foot jf West Cunningham street which runs ilong the creek and which seems to be without a name, will be paved this itimmer. It was supposed the street was a part of Race street, but when that street tvas paved it was fouud it did not run to Cunningham and hence ;he gap. lILTLKit M/VRKKTS.
