An Audacious Fellow Meets

HERE is one tramp in
Pennsylvania who will
reuieuiher his visit to
Shenandoah for some
time and who will take
great care to see that
lie is beyond the reach
of vengeance before he
attempts to Intimidate
women again. This
paiticular trsmp watt observed loitering in
front of Mr. C. E. Titnian's residence Ills
actions were of a very suspicious character
and Sir. Tltman decided to keep him nnder
surveillance.
After scrutinizing the residence and ap
parently noting all tho moans of entrances
tho tramp crowod to tho opposlto sido of tho
street and spoko to a woman who was stand
iug in the doorway of her residence. Tho
conversation was a very brief ono and tho
tramp thou walked away.
Mr. Tltman ooncludod there was something
wrong and he wont acrom tho street and
aekod the woman what tho tramp had said.
Tho woman replied that he bad asked if tho
houso ou tho opposite side of tho street was
Mr. Titmsu's residence. Tint was sufficient.
Mr. Titmau returned to his houso and told
Mrs. Tltman that if a tramp should apply at
tho doar during tho day to treat him kindly
and hold him in conversation until ho could
bo caught. It was suspected that tho tramn
was seeking an opportunity to got into tho
houso and make a haul.
An hour or so lator Mrs. Titmau responded
to a ring of the front door bell and met his
trampshlp. Fortunately, Mr. Titiuan was in
tho house, and ho got within hearing distance,
unobserved.
I he tramp had a ferocious Boowl upon his
f.ico and iu a blood-chilling voice told Mrs,
Titman that ho wanted something to eat and
some money. "And bo quick about It," he
addod with a threatening gesture At that
instant Mr. Titmau appeared upon tho scene
and grabbed tho tramp before ho could make
an effort to escape. Tho thrashing adminls
tcrcd was as warm as it was deserved. Tho
tramp pleaded for mercy, but Mr. Titman
continued tho punishment until ho thought
the rascal's cup of misery was full ; then ho
let him go.

03K3 OBSERVATIONS.
following soene lie apologised to the audleuee
for not going by wyliig, "Oh, why didn't I
leavo this plaoe before, but this time I'll go
sure I" Then the vlllalu stpel in and shot
him, and Leflingwell didn't go away after
all. Whon tho curtain foil several peoplo In
the audience honted "Kate!" and as the c
companlst was gathering up tho music to
restore It to tho company after tho play I
noticed that tho words "Itatst Rats! Itntsl"
wcro written on ono of tho sheets. Un
doubtedly eomo heartless musician in some
othor town had hurled tho venomous
dart and the manager failed to
observe it, or his conscience would not allow
him to use an eraser. Thoro was oonsident
bio dolny In raising tho curtain hoisting tho
rsg, as the boys say on tho first act, hut tho
cause was not made public until yesterday,
when ono of tho "hamfatters" coufidentally
informed a friend of mine that the stage
manager fell asleep iu a strange room of the
hotel ami it took a long search to find him.
It is also said several members of the com
pny imbibed freely ou Thanksgiving Day.
Probably tho unfortunate people who mado
up the audience recollect that the saw mill
soene iiientluued on the program did not
materialise. It was not the fault of the
company, but, as I am Informed, of some
heartless creditor who resides somewhere
between this town and Wilkes-llarre. If tho
creditor had bagged the company and sent
on tho scenery Mr. Ferguson's patrons would
have had much to bo thankful for, and would
prob.ihly still be offering thanks. Hut actors
will get through even if they have to sprint
over railroad ties to do It. Ilowovor tho
company had some mouoy Thursday night,
good hard earned Shenandoah money.
Yesterday tho company held a business meet
ing which resulted in a resolution to
scramble from "Among tho Pines" and seek
the streets of Now York. Tho manager did
not intimate what his future plans were, but
It is hoped that if lie ever oomes through
tills section again with "Among tho Pines"
he will bring a company of players that can
act a little bit. Hut iierhaps It would bo
hotter for him to conio In disguise, if at all.

The dog that bit Fred. Hooks, one of tho
eirculatiou nitoots of tho Heicai.p, is dead
and will not tick his tcoth into human ilosh
any more. Imt the dog died game. lie was
a big, black, savage animal and no stranger
dared enter tho yard which ho protocted. A
constable and two men gave him his death,
hut not without eomo trouble. Although it
was muzzled the constablo and his assistants
wcro unable to tako the animal out of tho
yard and tho shootlug was ilouo on tho
grounds.
HE Jury in the case of
the Common weal t h
agahul Frank and Rob
ert Shoup handed a
sealed verdict to the
court at Pottsville. It
found tho defendants
guilty of assault and
battery and aggravated
assault and battery.
Tho jury went out
early last night and did not agree upon a
verdict until nearly midnight.
The vordlot was a surprise to tho friends of
the accused, who aro brothers and residents
of this town. The Shoups told a story which
seemed to bear heavily against tho man who
occuaed them, Anthony Kerlavage, a Pole
residing at Gilberton, but the evidence pro
duced by . ho other sido most have been quite
convincing In another light. Tho Shoups do
not bear a reputation for being the desperate
characters tho verdicts mako them.
Kerlavage, the complainant, swore that odd
night in September last he and some friends
were on thoir way from town to their homes
in Oilbertou and had reached a point near
Turkey Hun on the mountain south of town
when tho Shoups made an attack upon them.
tho tight Kerlavage received a frightful
knife wound in the back which confined him
to tho Miners' Hospital for several weeks.
Tho Shoupi story was that they had been
to Gilberton to collect thoir pay at a colliery
and between 8 and 0 o'clock at night started
for their homes in town. Ou thoir way over
the mountain they woro attacked by four or
five men, one of whom was Kerlavage. The
attack, tho Shoups said, was mado for the
purpose of robbery.
Kerlavage produced several of his country
men as wituossos who swore they were in tho
light and that it had boen provoked by the
Shoutf, who taunted tho Polos who were
singing as they walked along the road.
It is said tho convicted men will appeal tho

ready appeared in alarming forco in Europe,
while iu town quito a number of casos have
been reported. I advise everybody to make
noto of tho fact, and upon tho slightest in
dication of an attack to got medical advico.
In no other disease is the ancient proverb
that "a stitch in tlmo saves nine," more
lirectly applicable.
.
Nowspapor men aro not infalllblo. Their
memories aro liko those of other men. Thoy
frequently omit the mention of Uiings they
promise to mako note of, and when it occurs
no amount of explanation can remove from
tho minds of some the impression that tho
omissiotis was purposoly mado. Ono of the
pleasant things In tho lifo of a reporter is to
be assailed fur a slip of tho memory. It's too
bad, but it can't bo helped. Tho scribe
reaches heaven as quickly, however, and
that's ono consolation.
The roast "Among the Pines" at Ferguson's
theatre on Thanksgiving night provoked
much indignation, but the people who woro
duped are avenged. The company, to be ex
pressive, is "busted." There wore some
peoplo who expressed regret that Myron
Xeillngwell aud Adelaide Alexander had
cast their lots with such bad company and
will be glad to hear thoy have escaped from
it. Tho company was well billed and those
who weut to tho theatre expeoted a treat
for their Thanksgiving, but when the curtain
wont up they saw disappointment staring
them iu the face. Tho fellow who played
the part of a rich ship owner looked like a
well known man who does not live a thousand
miles from tho Herald office and deals in
tags, bones and powder kegs. The fellow
who was supposed to be an Irish comedian
was very much like Itanium's fat woman
playing Eva in "Unole Tom's Oabin." He
made the part a heavy oue and hi wit went
up Into the "tiles" t least it didn't gat over
the footlights. He thought he made a big
hit in oue of the acta and it was not until after
he had responded to three ouoottw that he re
alised the gallery iiods were guying his singing,
