James Walsh, son of Chief
Walsh, who has been ill of typhoid
fever for the past three moaths,
was on the streets yesterday for
~ | the first time since he was taken
il. He is now recovering rapidly,
“| Fall is now struggling for the
underhold. Last night it was
decidedly cool and this moming
of murder in the
first The decision refusing
Johason another chance for his life
was handed down immediately
Lilley & Wilson, attorneys for the
condemned man, it is said, will ap-
the decision of Judge
Fanning and take the casé to the
supreme court. Aa appeal to the
supreme court of course will act as
a stay of execution.
Immediately after the opinion of
the court was handed down Dis
the prisoner be sentenced, Johnson
was brought into court a few min-
utes later, The long confisement
in jail has bleached his complexion,
and he does not look much as he
did when first arraigned on the|!
charge of murdering Maggie Joha-
son and little Annie Benjamin. |"
Recently he has undergone consid-
erable change. Persons visiting
the jail do not now get an oppor-
tunity to look him in the face. Oa
the approach of visitors he tums
his head and appears deeply en-
grossed in a newspaper or book
until the unwelcome guest departs.
In court yesterday Johnson kept
his eyes continually on the judge,
and when asked whether he had
anything to say why sentence of
death should not be pronounced he
declared in a loud, clear voice, “I
am innocent of this crime.”
Johanson has been tried twice for
the part he played in the mur-
der, and there are many who think
that no further effort should be
made to reverse a judgment which
is believed to be just. According
to his own confession, he is the
man who did the actual killing, and
just why there is any doubt as to
his guilt is difficult to understand.
The taxpayers have paid the ex~
pense of two trials and they should
not be burdened with a third. A
third trial would result the same
as the other two, as a jury could
not be found in Bradford county
that “would bring ina verdict of
acquittal, or lessen the degree of
punishment,
The governor will fix the time
for the execution of the sentence
pronounced by Judge Fanning.
PUBLIC PAY-OFF
Black Diamond Legion N. P. L

COXTON YARDS RUSHED
The Coxtoa yards of the Lehigh
Valley are experiencing a freight
rush such as they have not known
for months. Every employe of the
yard is worked every available
minute to keep up with the volume
of business that is being handled
by the company. For several days
past the officials have been barely
able to keep up with the rush. All
the regular freight crews are al-
lowed Smiy sight hour hours layoff,

* BICYCLES IN CUSTOIY
Officer Lewis has in his posses
sion two bicycles which have
apparently been abandoned by their
owners. One of the wheels was
being ridden by a man, when Offi.
cer Lewis approached. The man
suddenly dismouated, left the
wheel, and has not been seen since,
Mr. Lewis thinks that the man
would rather abandon the whee!
than to pay a fine for riding on the
sidewalks. The owners of the
wheels can have them by galling at
police headquarters.
UNDERTAKERS SHILE
Football, the Tough; treacherous
game, associated with late fall and
carly winter, comfortable wraps
and overcoats, is again being pracs
ticed. In nearly every town rival
teams have resumed practice and
will be prepared to “furnish the
real article before the snow flies.
The game will supplant basebdl,
and as a boom for sprains and jolts
itis a great success. Incidentally
the undertaker always puts on his
glad smile when the football season
approaches, ”

MOVING PICTURES
April 23, 1906, was a day long
awaited by at [east one nation—the
Greek—and eagerly - looked for
ward to by many others, It was
the opening day of the Olympic
games at Athens. The theatre of
action was the vast and imposing
staium, built entirely of marble,
oc third of a mile ia circumterence
and with 24 miles of marble seats,
This imposing spectacle will be re
produced by Lyman H. Howe in
the ' oomis opera house, Saturday,
Septc oer 13, afternoon and even-
ing. The scenes open by showing
members of the royal family bow-
ing to the right and left in recog-
nition of the cheering hosts. All
Athens seems in a frenzy, Never
before in the history of athletics
has there been such a sight. 70,000
people were in the stadium, 6Go,000
more were on the hills overlooking
it, and 170,000 lined the route of
the great Marathon race. It is es
timated there were fully 300,000
Grecian spectators to it, and it is
safe to predict that over a million
spectators will see it throughout
by Lyman H. Howe.
