FINE COIN COLLECTION
Many Pieces That Are Rarely Seen,
and of Censiderable Value.
Waverly—E. I. Neaves, the druggist
bas a collection of gold coins that
probably cannot be surpassed in this
locality. He has a five dollar gold
piece of the year 1838. This is one
of the earliest coins of the gold ya-
riety to be coloed by the United States.
He has two $250 gold pieces dated In
1851 and 1853 respectively. These
coins are also very rare. A otg dol-
lar gold plece of 1849 Is In the col-
lection. A one dollar gold piece of the
Year 1361 Is perhaps the most valuable
as only 13 of them were coined In
that year, and is of a shape differ-
eit from other doliar pleces
A Gc gold plece ‘dated 1869 bears
the inscription “Cal. Gold™ on its face
A sliver half dollar has “Fifty Cents
or Half Dollar” engraved on the edge
The collectioh also contains a number
of other coins composed of the prec-
lous metal

Sayre, aud despile the activity of the
Lehigh Valley officials and detectives
ithe guilty parties have not been lo-
cated. yet it would not sarprise those
in authority if arrests were made dur
ing the next! few days
The local authorities are satisfied
that the looting Is being done on the
Sayre division, but just where i= a
tonandrum. for despite the number
of watchmen employed very [re
quently seals are broken and the cars
entered and goods taken Not much
from any one is taken. bul it is evi-
dent that four or five cars from cer-
fain trains are robbed
It is judged from the acts of per-
petrators that a system is being em-
ployed. [it appears that the thieves
lay In hiding for a train and just as
& stop Is made they break open the
seals and take the articles that are
the easiest to carry Several limes
the special officers were of the opin<
ion that they had a clue, but after
running it down they were mistaken.
Not (0 be daunted, however, a force
of detectives, some of the best In the
country, is now endeavoring to locate
the looters, and It is very evident that
it they attempt to play the game in
the future the robbers will find a safe
place behind the bars
This condition of affairs leaked
out yesterday when a special officer
followed one of the accused to Wilkes-
Barre, and while he did not arrest
him, yet felt satisfied that he is one
of the gulity parties and he will be
held under surveillance for the nest
few days This detective feels satis-
fied that the gang of car looters will
be arrested. He feels that the majori-
ly are foreigners, who are organized
to steal from the railroad companies
He sayshihat the Lehigh Valley is
uot the only one that suffers, for the
other companies, who operated trains
in the neighborhood of Sayre. It was
first supposed that the thefts occurred
near Coxton, but the - investigation
proves this to Le erroneous

Have Been Abandoned.
For several months the town coun-
cll has been holding” the regular
monthly and specials meetings in the
Packer hose rooms, but It appears
that there are those who have not yel
learned that the old yuarters on Pack-
er avenue have been abandoned. On
Monday evening It was expected there
would be something doing. At least
It had been uolsed around that the
session of the council would be worth
listening to, and therefore quite a
large crowd of eager and expectant
citizens gathered In front of the old
town hall, The hour of eight arrived
and the building was stil dark. At
5:30 darkness still prevatled on the
inside of the old chamber, but the
crowd Instead of growing Impatient
retired to a nearby clgar store and
awalted the arrival of the councilmen
At nine o'clock someone who was wise
informed those present that the coun-
cll held the meetings in the Packer
hose rooms. Then there wis a scam-
pering for the front seats Sayre wyl-

Husband Has Falled to Provide
for Her.
resident. who was charged with de-
sertion and non-support by his wife,
couclusion of a bearing held by Jus-
tice Carey last night
Mrs. Hart was represented by At-
torney Paul E Maynard, while C. C.
Yocum. Esq, looked after the inter-
ests of the defense. Mrs Hart was
the only witness for the common-
wealth, and her story was to the ef-
fect that on or®about the first of
November last she left her husband's
home In South Waverly because he
falled to provide the necssities of
life. Under cross examination, how-
ever, she admitted that she went
away from home without her hus-
band’s knowledge and that when she
left the cellar was filled with pota-
toes, turnips beets, cabbage, etc. Par-
ticular complaint was that he had
failed to provide sufficient clothing,
and that when she asked him to buy
her a pair of shoes last fall he re-
fused. The story told by Mrs. Hart
Is too long for the public prints. She
and her husband were married 21
years ago. Mrs Hart was a widow
previous to her marriage with Hart,
and she declares that within a few
short days after their marriage
her husband quietly told her that he
could not support her and pay his bills
at the same time According to the
testimony produced at the hearing
the married life of the couple has
been one of continual domestic In-
felicity, she having left him four
times, because, as she alleges, he had
failed to provide properly for her sup-
port. Duriug the past 3 years they have
been living on the D. LL F Clark place
at South Waverly It developed that
they kept a cow, from which they
had half the milk Mrs. Hart had
the avails of the milk which she sold,
aud also received the income from a
flock of chickens. She did hot com-
plain but that she had enough to eat,
but insisted that her husband would
not provide proper clothing. She de-
clared that he had only given her two
dollars in money during the past two
years, and when Hart was placed on
the stand he verified the assertion
He claimed, however, that he was
willing to provide for his wife, if she
would come to his home, but as Mrs
Hart refused to do this the defend-
ant was discharged
A large mumber of witnesses. includ-
ing ex-Burgess Storms of South Wav-
erly borough, Justice of Peace
George Edmister, were sworn and tes-
tified that Mr. Hart was a law abid-
ing citizen, sober and Indystrious, and
