our children would eat pleces of lump
sugar.

Lyman Heeman, Sr., and Lyman
Charged With
Stealing Copper and Iron from

Lyman Heemar, Sr, and Ly-
man Heeman, Jr, father and son,
were arreated just afternoon today
by Chief Walsh on a charge pre~
ferred by T. B Shaffer, special cffi-
cer for the Lehigh Valley. Shaffer
alleges in his complaint that on
the 3rd of November a large quan.
tity of iron and copper were taken
from the company's property near
Milltown and that the Heemans
are suspected of being the guilty
parties. Warrants were issued by
Justice Carey shortly after the
theft was committed, but as the
Heemans lived in Waverly it was
impossible to get service until to~
day when they came to Sayre and
were immediately spotted by
Chief Walsh. They were remand-
ed to the lockup and will be given
a hearing late this afternoon.
