Antonia Medina and Andrew Crunzo,
two of the Italians suspected of having
committed the quintuplet murder
which a few weeks ago occurred at
Windber, were captured in Cambria
county, last week, and are now in the
Somerset jail awaiting their trial on
the charge of having had a part in the
murder of five men. The question is,
will they be in jail when they are want-
ed for the trial? The present jail man-
agement seems to be very loose, and if
these criminals don’t make their es-
cape it will be somewhat remarkable.
Frank Napoloon, the otlier suspect, and
who is supposed to have been the chief
actor in the Windber tragedy, is still

[. Marsden, it was learned that he was
suffering from catarrhal appendici
and he was advised by that physician
io enter a hospital. He left over the
B. & O. for Philadelphia, where he en-
ered St. Joseph’s hospital. An opera-
tion for the removal of the appendix
was performed upon the young man,
Monday afternoon, by one of the well
known surgeons of Philadelphia. The
surgical ration, which lasted one
hour and twenty-five minutes, was en-
tirely successful. A message to the
family, here, yesterday, stated that Mer.
Harrison was getting along as well as
could be expectey, and that it was
thought he would be able to return
home in about one month.—Somerset
Standard.
Died. Saturday, May 5th, 1900, Miss
Emma llay, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
C. T. Hay. The deceased was aged
nearly 15 years, and for a long time
suffered with dropsy of the heart and
other complications. Etima was a
most estimable little girl, and all who
knew her were her friends. Although
she sufferefl long and severely, she
nevertheless bore her afllictions brave-
ly and complained bat little. It is in-
deed a hard blow to the family to part
with one so near and dear to them, but
what is their loss is little Emma’s gain,
for she is now at rest, and no longer
needs to suffer the tortures of disease
in this sorrowful world. She has left
this sinful world, pure and spotless,and
the world beyond has gained one more
innocent and precious soul. The be-
reaved parents, brothers and sisters
have the sympathy of all, and may a
kind providence join them again to-
gether in a better and fairer world
