STUBBORN FACTS.
The Hnrrisburg Telegraph Bays:
"There must be some amusement in
the cry of tho free trader that tin
plate ennnot be made In this country,
or ho wouldn't keep it up. Day lu
and day out, like the Bowery Parrot's
cry of 'The Tarifl's a Tax,' the free
trader shouts, 'You can't make
American tin.' And he must enjoy
It, or he wouldn't keep It up. There
are tin plate factories In Missouri, Ohio
Maryland aud Pennsylvania, and
what Is more they give employment
In tho new Industry to a large number
of American worklngmen aud get a
good price for their wares."
A few days ago a charier was Issued
at the Btato Department InHarrlaburg
to tho Blalrsvllle rolling mill and tin
plate company, of Blalrsvllle, Indiana
county, with a capital of $73,000, the
directors In which are all gentlemen
of Blalrsvllle. They know that they
can make American tin and they ate
going to do it.
Tho Middletowu, (Dauphin county;
Journal, a day or two ago printed the
following paragraph concerning a
great event In tho history of the busy
borough :
"Artist W. H. Walboru is painting
a sign bearing, the following : 'This
building is covered with genuine
American tin by A. B. Croll.' Tho
sign Is to be placed on the large barn
of .Col. Young's Keystone farm on
wlilch Mr. Croll placed 5,000 rquare
feet of this material."
Wo can add to this the fuct that V.
S. Hammond, the window spring man
ufacturer of Lewlsberry, this county,
has had tho roof of hie house covered
with this same quality of tin of Amer
ican make. The tin used Is N. & G.
Taylor's old style and Mr. Croll was at
the works In Philadelphia and
saw American tin made there. He re
gards this tin as the best made any'

As a rulo most people aro Intensely ex
asperated when, after wading through somo
exciting story in the newspaper which they
havo dovo'urod with breathless interest, to
find at tbo finish it is only a trap to adver
tise somo wonderful soap or patent medi
cine Of courso it is disappointing, but just
consider how clevorly its dono, and, by the
way, what a wonderful industry has been
developed In this mode of advertising,
Somo of the great medlclno firms pay their
advertising agont as high as ten thousand
dollars a year, and a cortain manufacturer
of soap pays his advertiser twenty-five
thousand. Just think of it, and while you
are thinking just remember that "Sho

HonesdaLe, Pa., Nov. 27. E. B. IIol-
lister of Ilollistorvlllo, this county, noar
the Lnckuwannh. County lino, Who has
been for more than a quarter ot n cen
tury a Justice of the Peaco lu tha t
county, although during that time- he
baa boon Indicted for conspiracy, bur
glary, arson, and assault with nttompt
to kill, and was convicted onco on a
charge of burglary and sentenced to
four years In the ponitontlary, but es
caped through a legal technicality, has
just beon Indicted for burglary, this
tlmo by tho graud jury of Lackawanna
County, and will be tried at tho noxt
term ot court.
Ilolllster Is 70 yoars old and belongs
to ono of tbo most prominent families In
Wayne Couuty. Lieutenant-Governor
W atrcs Is a nephow of his, and he has
for 80 years been conspicuous In the af
fairs of his section ot tbo county. Dur
ing tho war thoro woro many mall and
express robberies and masked burglar
ies in that locality, and it was openly
charged that bqulro Hollister was the
organizer aud lender of a gang that
committed those crimes.
In 18G7 a burglary committed In tho
village of Waymart, ten mllos from IIol
listervlllo, wns traced homo to blm, and
ho was arrested and convicted. Tho
caso was carried to the Supreme Court,
where tho Judgment of tho Wayne
county court was reversed.
In 187U Squire Ilolllster, his brothor-
ln-law, Georgo Burns, who hadroturued
to lioiusiurviuo, v. iL. diuyurs, ami a
young girl named Faunlo Vuu Gordor,
woro arrestod charged with conspiracy,
arson, burglary and attomptod murder.
Tho chargos against these parties woro
made by Theodore II. Baker, i mer
chant ot Ilollistorvlllo. Squire Ilollls
ter owed Baker $3,000, for which tho
lattor hold a, mortgage on tho former's
property. Holllstor InHlsted on paying
It, and tho day tho monoy was paid Ba
ker sent It to a Scrnnton bank. Thac
night a lire broko out In u barn near
Bakor's, and Uakor ran to it, leaving
his wife aud child at homo. While ha
was gone a maskod man entered the
houso, and olded by Faunio Vun Gorder,
boat Mrs. Uakor into unconsclousnos3
and took tbo wallet which had contained
tho $3,000 paid that day to Bakor. Mrs.
Baker said that alio had recognlzod tho
masked robbur as Georgo Burns.
Baker, following allegod clues, was
satisfied that Squiro Ilolllster had con
spired with Burns, Will Meyor, Fanny
Van Gordor, who was Moyor's sweot
hoart, to flro tbo barn, i The four prison
ers were tried at Ilonesdalo, and to the
amazement ot every ono Miss Van
Gorder aud her lover woro convicted,
and Ilolllster and his brothor-ln-law,
Burns, were acquitted.
A fow weeks ago a daring burglary
was committed In Dunuioro, a suburb
of Scrnnton. Ofllcers wore put to work
on tha caso, and tho clews they found
led them to Ilollistorvlllo, nud fluully to
tho arrest of Squire Holllstor, bis
brother Henchel, Charles Engel, nnd
William Snow. Besides bolng a Justice
of the Peace aud tho political boss of
his township, Squire Holllstor is a witty
newspaper writer. Ills brother, Dr. II.
II. Ilolllster, of Scranton, wrote the
"History of tho Lackawanna Valley,"
His sister, Mrs. Watros, was a poet of
more than ordinary merit, hor produc
tions during the war, over tbo signature
of "Stolla Lackawanna," being well
