The Comity Alnn Mulcted. Qm cases of John Broe noski against John and James Hlgglns and Conatablo Thomas Bo land, of Skonandoah, wai disposed of at Fott8vil!o on Saturday. Tho jury acquitted tho defendants after delib erating six hours. Tho oaso was an import ant ono, inasmuch as (ho prosecutor and his friends mado it a test to decido tho question as to tho authority of tho tax collector to inako collections and summary arrests in cortain cases. Tho statomont of facts in tho caso scorned to bo as follows : John Broenoski boarded a train at tho Lehigh Valloy depot in this town and aftor ho had traveled half way to Yateevillo tho Messrs. lliggins and Con stablo Boland placed him under arrest for non-payment of taxes. Broouoakl resisted, but when taken from tho train and when brought hick to tho depot in town ho strug gled so fiercely that his wrists wero badly lacerated by tho handrails. He was finally placed in tho lock-up. Hero tho statement of facts by tho proso cutlon and defendants differed. Broenoski claimed that when he was placod in the lock-up tho Messrs. lliggins and Bolaud searched him and took ilvo dollars from his pocket. Tho defendants denied this and alleged that Broenoski tendered them tho fivo dollars in settlement of the mattor aud thoy accepted tho money. Tho suits were brought against tho defen dants on chargos of assault and battery, larceny and false imprisonment. Messrs. Whitehonse and Foster nppoarod for tho prosecutor in the proceedings, but upon some disagreement over the interpreter which should bo employed they withdrew from tho case and wore succeeded by District Attorney Ryan and his assfstant, Edgar Bocktcl. John Whalen and M. M. Burke, Esqs , represented tho defendants. Among tho witnesses for tho proseoution wore Charles Badziewioz, of town, who said he had employed counsel to push the case to liavo a test made, as the Polish, Lithuanian and other people, had become disgusted with tho tax collecting system. The dofeuco raised the point that tho prose cutor was advised to bring the suit, and if ha won tho Polish people would make it very unpleasant for tho tax collector thereafter. Tho jury retired at 12:15 o'clock on JSatur day afternoon nnd at 0:15 returned with a combination verdict worded substantially as follows: In the assault and battory caso the prosecutor must pay tho costs. Oho half tho costs on tho falso imprisonment charge was pat on tho prosecutor and tho other half, as well as the charges in tho larceny case, wero put on tho county, so that tho result of tho trials was a sweeping victory for the defen dants. Tho total amount of costs will bo about $200. FULL TIM3 AGAIN. The 1. & K. C. I. Go. IteJCliidff .Its Four-Day Order.

Two fakirs' with a huge torch light, a haudsomcly oapfirisonod equipage, and a largo stockof Colbrado'a "new metal jewolry" is tho disturbing tolcmout to their memory. On that evening a large crowd was cntor tallied and swindled by tho old, but to some, over new trick, of the brass ring-got-your-monoy-back-ordor. Tho fakirs cleared about two hundred dollars out of tho crowd and boforo tho victims could realize "where thoy woro nt" wero safely on their way to Potts ville. V "Talk about falling stars," said on old Philadelphia A Beading railroader, "tho other ovonlng beat everything I over ex perienced. I was on my train of 'empties' on tho level and was admiring tho heavens, when n motoor passed over my head, with that peculiar sound, only experienced when attending n display of fireworks. It crossed right ovor tho track and oxplodcd with n loud report, dividing into three parts, each of which was tnoro brilliant than nn aro light. Aftor it struck tho ground a sulphurous odor porvadod, aud although I hunted high and low for tho meteoric stono my efforts wero unsuccessful." "I'll toll you what it is," said an old resi dent of tho plaoe ho named, "Frackvlllo has turnod out somo peoplo that she can be proud of. Do you remember Ebenozor Thomas, tho young follow who learned chemistry and tolegraphy in Hillary's drug storo. Woll 'Ebo' Is now Edison's right hand man, and is considered ono of tho most ex pert chomists, and olectrlcians, tho Wizard of Menlo Park has associated with liim. then, too, you remember Jacob Olliauscn. Ho learned under Frank Keffer, and to-day 'Jakcy' is considered ono of tho ablest rail roader managers In tho country. It would be n good thing for tho stockholders of the Beading if tho present befuddled manage ment would tako a leaf out of his oxporionco and methods. Do you romcmbor Bob Wright? hardly an old rosidoutor of the county oan forget tho young fellow. Well, to-day Bob is tho Democratic State Chairman, and ono of tho host bank officials in the state. Will Fennoll, while in Allontown the other day, called on Bob, and found him in his office in ouo of tho banks. Well, you can just gamble that Bob was glad to soo Will and inquired about all tho old folks at Frack ville." After a pleasant stay in Frackville, whore I mado the above gleanings, I started for Shenandoah aud on my way stopped at Mahanoy Plane, whero I mot a railroader who delivered himself of tho following during the courso of conversation: "Woll, here I havo been twenty years railroading, in every department, and tho present methods of the Boading management simply turns topsy-turvcy overy principlo of good railroading I have been taught. Here they aro hammering at tho coal trade, at night, with double the expense; when labor is at least twenty percent, loss ofHcieut than in tho day time; throwing the whole trade at night on tho mountain grades, that are dangeious even in day tlmo; teariug every thing to pieces in tho dark, and endeavoring to move tho trado over the main line in tho day when the road is nearly blocked with passenger and freight trains. Phew! but these twenty thousand innovators from other roads aro costly experiments for tho Boading. Another Mahauoy Piano gentlemen volunteered tho information that it will pay tho landowners to erect a now breaker at tho Lawrence colliery. A large quautlty of coal lies under tho present breaker and if it is to bo mined tho present structure must bo torn down and a now ono erected. The valuo of tho coal under the old breaker would pay for ten new ones and as tho landowners are shrewd business men it Is qulto likoly that a new ouo will soon go up. be.
