The last Elmira Trlryrum gives a picture of Chief of Police BURNS, of this place with the following biographical sketch: In a pleasant valley at the foot of Elk mountain, in Susquehanna county, Pennsyl vania. the subject >f this sketch first, saw the light, September 16. 1839. His mother came of good old Puritan stock, and was.a woman of strong and noble eharae er. His father was of Scotch-Irian descent. With the mus cles of an athlete he hail the courage of the pioneer. Until twenty-one years of age. Burns lived and worked on a farm. To his active out-door life he owes iu a measure, the splendid phy-'que and iron constitution that i ave so we I 11 ed him to p rform tie trving duties of h : * af'cr years. In D • ceuiher. 1872. Mr. Bums, who was living on u farm in Smithfield, was solicited by the Burgess to come to Towanda and perform police duties for four months. At the expi ration of that time he was offered the position of Chief of Police, which he accepted. For nearlv nine years he has proved himself a faithful and efficient officer. There were dif ficulties attending a discharge of the duties of the office, at that time, that have wholly disappeared. Fires and robberies have grealv diminished in frequency. It is a significant fact that three tlmea aa many arrests were made in 1872 as in 1880. Towanda is now as orderly a town as any of its size in the State. Officer Burns' courage, perseverance ami success in following and bringing criminals to justice, have become almost proverbial. He has been instrumental in hunting up and returning about fifty stolen horses, and near ly aIWHNs succeeded in bringing the thieves to trial. In 1872. Officer Burns arrested the notorious "butter thief," named Roeers.aL'as Caswell, who had committed a series of dar ing deprsdations in Southern New York and Northern Pennsylvania Rogers went liter ally "armed to the teeth" Rnd grew so bold as to defv arrest. One horse snd buggy stolen bv Ruggers, was traced to Bradford county. Pa., and fouud in possession of "Josh," the Oipsev King. The latter who passed through Tow unda oacasionallv, has since cherished a wholesome respect for Officer Burns'a ilitv to detect the receiver of stolen property. The "butter thief" was confined to the Au burn penitentiary for twelve years. On the 4tli of July, 1877, while quelling a riot in the streets of Towanda, thief Burns was assaul ted by : drunken and infuriated mob. In self-defence, and in protecting the lives and property of law-abiding citizens, he futally shot one of his assailants ami slightly woun. ded another. The rogues who had hereto fore "run the town" on circus davs. were taught a valuable lesson No such disgrace ful riot lias been attempted since that time. In April, 1876, Offie r Burns was commis sioned by Governor llartranft, as Railroad Police, on the Northern division of the Le high Valley railway, lie has been verv suc cessful in guarding the interests of the company and is deserving the confidence or railway officials. In Novomlcr. 1878, Chief Burns was appointed Deputy United States Marshal for the Northern District of Penn syvania. Ilis skill in detecting counterfeiters and "pulling" illicit distilleries has demon strated his superior sagacity as a detective and his fearless daring as aa officer. The News Condensed.
