POTTSVIM.lt, Nov. IS.
RIMINAL court at
this place yesterday
disposed of motions to
quash and other pre
liminary business and
fottled down to trials.
Tho first and most
important caso on tho
calendar is tbo ono
of tho Commonwealth
against Harry Manfred,
tho young Italian charged with the murder
of George Ochs at St. Clair. On Monday a
motion to quash the Indictment was made,
but as tho court denied It the case was taken
up for trial yesterday and ' a jury wag em
pamiolod. Mrs. Ochs, tho widow of the murderod
man, Is now a resident of Shenandoah, mak
ing her home with relatives who reside on
Chestnut street. She was called to tho
witness stand and told tho story of thocrimo,
which slio witnessed, in a low tono of voice.
The woman testified that on tho night of
August 15th, last, Manfred called at her
house in St. Clair and asked for something
to oat. Mrs. Oeh's husband and father wero
in thu house at tho timo. Tbo Italian only
nibbled at tho broad given him aud wltcu
told to leave so tho house could bo closed up
for the night ho took a pitcher and went for
beer. Mrs. Ochs endeavored to show that
tho beer was drugged and said her father was
made sick by drinking It. Manfred said ho
could not go to his own homo because his
wifo and mothor-In-law had turned him out,
but ho finally left aud Mrs. Ochs looked the
doors.
Sometimo during the night Mrs. Ochs was
awakened and discovered Maufred in her
bodroom. She cried out and her husband
awoko. Ho sprung from tho bed and mado
for tho Italian, who drew a pistol and fired.
Manfred ran to tho upper part of tho house
and jumpod through tho window by which
he had enteral. Ochs followed and fell dead
aoross tho window sill. Mrs. Oohs admitted,
on cross examination, that alio has a husband
living in Minursville and that neither had
been divorced. Sho said sho married again
because her husband married first, aud she
liellevod sho had as much right to do so as he
had. Tho witness stoutly refuted all imputa
tions against her character on cross examina
tion. The case is still on trial.
Tho most important case beside the Och.i
(rial before tho court yesterday was that of
Johu llriggs for complicity in the Gilbertou
riot last August. Hon. C. N. Brutnoi, counsel
for Briggs, mado a motion on Monday to
postpono tho case until tho noxt term of
court, and In support of that motion Dr. G.
M. Hamilton, of Shenandoah; was put on
tho witness stand yesterday to testify as to
tho physioal condition of County Detectivo
Amour, who is ono of tho most important
witnesses. Tho doctor sworo that in his
opinion It would endanger Amour's llfo to
have him appear at court and put on tho
witness stand this term. Amour, ho said, is
still very weak from tho ell'ects of tho in
juries ho received In tho riot, and while he
has appeared on tbo streets recontly ho has
been obliged to walk vory slow and the
distances have been very short. The doctor
thought that while Amour might have entire
control of his nervous temperment while on
the stand aud appear to undergo an exami
nation without much uneasiness, yet the
forced talking might be followed by a re
lapse which would porhajB place his life in
great danger. Dr. Hamilton said ho believed
Amour would he sufficiently strong to appear
at the next term. This ended tho matter for
tho day and the case was postponed until
next Saturday, when the oourt will decide
whether or not Briggs' trial will be postponed
until the next term.

POLITICAL POINTS.
How Thing Aro Hhiiplujr In tho Demo
critlo UhhIih.
The pott olllce fight is absorbing all po
litical discussions in the ranks of the De
mocracy In tills vicinity. George Folmer Is
the latest applicant for tha position, accord
ing lo street rumor.
The absence of 'Squire "Jack" Monaghan
soenw to be much rogrottod by his followcis.
Muofc as they liked to see him rewarded,
thoy do not think it was a rnfo move to give
him a position which takes him away trom
his old stamping ground.
By tho way, 'Sqnlro Jack was ono of tho
most aggressivo politicians a Democrat of tho
David B. Hill stripo. Tlioso of his party in
thu First ward who wore not of tho "select"
were much relloved when the 'Squiro took
hlmtell away to the Quaker City, and are
encouraged to look for somo of tho crumbs
dealed out in that ward.
Tho former dispenser of justlco in tho First
ward may also be called lucky. Several
months ago ho got a post ofllro bee in his
bonnet; then his cyos turned towards tho
Democratic nomination for Frothouotary.
Fortunately for hlmsolf ho was coaxed out of
the field by tho Philadelphia appointment
before his party could nominate him.
The report that "Jack" Toolo, the defeatod
candidate for Clork of tho Courts, contem
plates taking up a residence in Shenandoah
again has revived tho hopes of his followers.
Just what he will accomplish none will pro
tend to say at present, but tho Republicans
will be wise if they keop an eyo on him. It
is also said that "Jack" has hlsoyo on either
tho Shonandoah or Pottsvllle post olllce.
There is no law to prevent him claiming
cither, or tho earth, for that matter.
It is statod with much earnestness that
Senator Monaghan will not sock a ro election
noxt year. Somo of his near friends mako
tho statement, but tho Senator himself has
not mado auy such assertion. It seems to
havo been understood that F. P. Spleso, of
Taniaqua, was to bo (bo next Democratic
caudidato for Sonator, and, in fact, a bargain
to that effect seems to havo been mado. As
a part of this alleged bargain it is said that
our townsman, J. J. Franoy, the Wanamaker
of Schuylkill couuty, is to he the nominee
for Congress. Sinco tho election, however, it
lias been whispered that Mr. Franey does not
desiro thonomination. Therois no question but
that ho can have tho nominaton if ho wants
it, and If any Democrat can bo elected ho
ou. Ho is a dyed-in-tho-wool Democrat and
has acquired an oxtenslvo acquaintance in
national, state and couuty political circles.
Besides this ho has the prestige whicii usually
attends a successful business man and his
wealth runs close .to if not into tho six
figures.
Tho Impression prevails that whether or
not tho present is his last term in tho Senate,
Mr. Monaghan will not renounce politics
very soon. Ho is a young man, but has
mado his mark aud although a mluorlty
Senator has becooin much respected and
sought after by tho Republican members.
He also stands well with the Governbr. He
and Senator Giant Herring, another Shen
andoah "boy," were among tho leaders ia
the last session and secured more favors limn
the veterans in their party.

recent olection by Controller elect Severn, Is

Meritorious Production.
A genuinely meritorious production of
modorn minstrels was given at the Grand

dancing and music, and a number of special

are always quite amiss; nevor In the history
of tho world has a small boy been worst! In
an encounter with green apples. It isalways
luonppio mat sutlers, not the hoy. A curioui
phase of the matter is that the in.llvhliil
boy gets no real enjoyment from tho act of
eatiug an unnpo bit of fruit; it is a shallow
mistake to suppose that just because hois
young and care fiee sour is sweet in his
mourn, no, it you catch him whero he
doesn't see you, you will find his face a.nncknr
sometimes, just as yours would be under like
circumstances. It is tradition, a rasmnt for
juvenile good form, which leads him to tam
per mus with the lawsof God and man. He
is shrewdly aware that old folks wait nntil
the fall tarnishes forth ripe fruit; and alao
aware that it is a mark of the great boy tribe
to anticipate the season, a tribal distinction
aud peculiarity, something testifying to tho
fact that one boy is another and superior
being to tho man. Immemorial custom lies
behind the early forage for apples, whloh are
the irritation of orchard owners and the
terror of parents. Argument, blologloal or
moral, are of little avail. You must destroy
the elannlshness of the act before result may
be looked for: until then, the riubtlv
stituted boy will look upon the apple when
it is green and it will, for him, take on th
hues which may he imputed to the tree of
Eden's garden. OBK.
