0V that tho heavy win

borough authorities
should begin tho good
work of enforcing tho

Last night a Polish woman walking down

they broke tho force of tho fall, although tho

When tho Borough Council meets to-mor
row night Instructions should bo given to all
tho borough authorities to sco that an ob
Bervance of the ordinances are strictly en
forced this winter and that tho pavements
shall be kept as clear from ice and snow as
possible.
It is also hoped that tho authorities will do
all in their power to break up tho practice of

THEY MUST GO
The l'ollne Determined to Drive Out
Winter Shanties.
The police have been devoting considerable
tirao for several nights to tho location of
winter shanties and bavo determined to wipe
them out of existence. Tho officers have
found that several depredations recently
committed wero duo to plans concocted in
theso places. Boys and young men cou
gregate in theso huts and drink, smoke, play
cards and read sensational stories, a courso
which is not calculated to result in well
trained graduates. It is while half stuplfled
by drinking and smoking tthat the frequent
ers of these places plan the petty robbcrira
that becomo more annoying than the work of
professional thieves. It is hoped the police
will push the warfare against tho winter
shanties with vigor and let tho people know
who ircqucnt tho places so that they may bo
on their guard. Unfortunately some of the
frequenters belong to very respectablo
families, but it is hoped they will take
warning and seek other and inoro respectable
resorts. Sucli young men cannot resort to
the oxcuso they must seek slicltor from tho
sovero weather. This they can secure at
their homes, or in tho night schools.

IDE MAKING.
Probable Organization of n Company to
,Miinulncturo Artlllclal lco.
Already dismal forebodings and anticipa
tions of an unprofitable season in natural ico
are being heard from tho natural ice men in
many quarters, and if things eventuate in tho
way these gentlemen would seem to expect,
verily a golden opportunity would present It
self to the manufacturers of artificial ice, and
consequently also to tho makers of ico and
refrigerating machines.
A number of our most prominent citizens
are thinking seriously of going into tho man
ufacture of artificial ico and wo may expect
to hear almost any day of tho formation of a
stock company to further the project.
That it will pay In this town and vicinity
thero is not tho least doubt.
Dealers will always bo sure of a supply
and consumers will get a good, clear article
not frozen snow.
No large ice houses will bo necessary; no
big freight bills to pay and little or no wasto
while in transit.
Capital for tho new project can easily bo
raised. It only requires some ono to start the
ball and the rest will bo easy.
Who will tako tho initiative?
A prominent New York ico man says :
" It appears pretty safe to say that tho
coming winter will bo ono of tho worst for
our business that has been seen in many
years, and it is very doubtful if any quantity
of ico will bo ablo to bo stored along tho
Hudson river. I havo never in my recollec
tion seen so few of the signs of good, stiff
winter as during this fall. For somo time
before and for weeks aftor tho sun crossed
tho line tho weather was milder than during
early September. Theso and other Bigus that
havo como under my notico seem to portend
an open, unhealthy winter, and as there is no
old ico left over thjs fall, It will probably be
scarcer and dearer next summer than ever
before."
Now this, perhaps, requires to bo taken
cum grano sal'u, as it is not an altogether
unusual practico for tho ico men to proclaim
tho advent of a poor crop of natural ico so as
to preraro the consumer for an increaso in
prico in tho winter. It must, however, be
remembered that theio is i. good deal of truth
in tho old adago that there is no suioko with
out fire, and it is cortainiy true that thero will
bo littlo or no natural ico left over from last
winter's crop. This in itself would bo
likely to causo nn advance In prices, and it
certainly seems fair to look forward to
highly prosperous season for dealers in tho
artificial crystals. Apart from this, people
aro becoming educated to prefer the absoluto
purity of tho manufactured cubes to tho not
infrequent Impurity and unhealthlness of
tho natural product.
Artifice sometimes overcomes nature. It
doubtless has done so in tho matter of ice.

A VERY CDTEGIElOllfi
WHOLESALE RAID UPON THE
TRUNKS OP BOARDERS.
SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS GONE
Tho Robber Was a Youni? and
Very Agreeable Follow But
is Very Likely an Old
Offender No Cluo.
JjaSSpSlIERE hasbecn a whole
" salo raid upon tho
trunks of tho Hun
garians and Poles who
rcsido in tho houses on
the rocks" between
ASgpfc-iStr' Jardin and West streets
and fronting on tho Lehigh Valley railroad.
The houses aro occupied by boarders and
each of the rooms give shelter to from four
to seven and eight men and boys. Each
boarder has his own trunk or box and keeps
it under his bed. About ten days ago a Hun
garian greenhorn, who said he had just ar
rived in this country, becamo a boarder in one
of the houses. He was a young fellow about
18 years of ago of very soclnblo and agrco-
ablo ways and at onco becamo quite a favorite
with the other boarders. He cultivated the
acquaintance of all tho people in tho row
and was allowed to pass in and out of tho
houses at will.
The young follow said his name was Alex
Pultinawicz and, although he displayed some
money and said ho had enough to keep the
wolf from the door for soveral months, ho
expressed a desiro to secure somo kind of
work iu tho mines, but whenever ho was told
whero ho could secure work ho either waited
until some other fellow secured tho jub, or
feigned iiluess. Sunday morning Pultina
wicz disappeared. Saturday being pay day
tho boarders in tho row had surplus cash
which they deposited in their trunks. Tho
young man was especially sociable and
liberal on Saturday and it is now remarked
that tho drunks were quito numerous in the
houses In which ho spent his time. Ycster
day at least twenty boarders reported that
they had been robbed.
Pultinawicz, in somo unexplained manner
secured a key for almost every trunk in tho
houses he frequented, but it is believed that
he made keys to fit while he was loafing about
tho houses when the boarders were at work
iu tho mines. As far as can be learned tho
young rascal got away with between three
and four hundred dollars. Tho victims

During- II 1a
On Monday the IIkrald referred to the
arrest of a woman named Mary Elliott "who
was taken from town to the Pottsville Jail on
a charge of attempting to defraud a hotel
keeper of $15 duo for board. But littlo im
portance was attached to the case until after
the woman was placed under lock and key at
Pottsville, when she made sensational
charges against several men here and said to
tho ofllcer who left her there, "You tell those
fellows when you get back that they are re
sponsible for that board bill and if they do
not 'pony up' and get me out of hero I will
make things warm for them before long,"
As a consequence of this threat there aro
several young men here on pins and needles.
Tho Thomas Magulre case tried at Potts
ville this week and lesulting in the acquittal
of tho defendants, although the costs wero
put on the county, seemed to havo stirred up
tho county seat people considerably. The
newspapers of that placo are particularly
worked up and refer to the caso as a method
by which "the taxpayers are robbed by
petty cases." Tho facts of the caso were that
Mrs. Mary Breslin and Mrs. Eliza Patusky
carried away somo pieces from a heap of
lumber aud shingles that formerly made up
the dancing platform and fences of Columbia
Park. The defendants claimed that when
tho material was being hauled a load of it
toppled over at a common dump. The women
took somo pieces which they said wero only
good for fire wood. Thomas Magulre, of
Brownsville, the owner of tho wood, prose
cuted the women for larceny. Sol. Foster,
Esq., appeared for the defendants and suc
ceeded in getting them acquitted aud tho
costs amounting to $40, wero put on tho
county. M. M. Burke, Esq., who reprepro-
sented Mr. McGuiro in the caso was quite in
dignant when he read tho comments of tho
county papers on tho caso. The defendants
admitted they took the wood, but tho point
upon which tho decision hinged was that the
women did not know that anybody owned
tho pieces and thereby they got around the
felonious part of tho charge. Mr. Burko does
not think the papers should abuse his client
as had ho been ablo to prove that the women
knew tho wood belonged to Mr. McGuire tho
charge would havo been sustained.
I had a brief talk with a member of the
local Salvation Army corps the other evening
and found him in a most enthusiastic state.
Wasn't that a glorious Congress we held iu
Now York?" ho asked. "Bless tho Lord, our
Army is marching on aud doing noble work
We aro not many in numbers In Shenandoah
and have a hard time getting along, tho devil
has-this placo as his stronghold, but we
manage to hold our own and will soon hold
more than that. Bless tho Lord. Just see
tho work that has been accomplished iu New
York City I Thero tho Army believes iu

ly understanding it. When they are ready

I ventured.
I Quick as a flash the Salvationist answered,
"The salaries paid to ollicers aro amazingly
small, and abundantly prove that those men
are not in tho Army for financial profit.
Thero aro 1,019 salaried ollicers iu the Salva
tion Army in the United States. The aver
age salary, as shown by the latest balance
sheet, is $125.81 per year 1 In addition to tho
salary, oflicers receive their house rent. But

"whose expenses aro heavier than those of

not draw their full salary. Why, the salary
