HIT AN INNOCENT DUMMY 1 A Pole Who Was Loaded With Beer Knocked the Wooden Figure Through a Show Window. Anthony Willakawlcz staggered down East Centre street under a heavy load of beer. A clothing dummy standing in front of Max Supowltz's store attracted his attention, and he stopped. Whether Willakawlcz imagined that the dummy was a human being and was staring at him insolently is not known, but, at all events, he exclaimed, "This Jew must die!" and dealt the dummy a blow on its im passive face that sent the thing bodily through the show window. Mr. Supowltz and his son protested and Willakawlcz attacked them, after which he ran away. Constable Glblln chased and caught him and Justice Shoemaker put him under J300 ball for trial at court. John P. Boehm, the North Main street saloonkeeper, was prosecutor before Justice Shoemaker last night in a case against two young men named George Beresford and John Prosser, Jr., in which he charged them with stealing a keg of be r. It was taken from the porch In front of the saloon. The accused made good the loss, paid the costs and were discharged. A large pane of glass in the front door of Hooks & Brown's store, on North Main street; was smashed Saturday night by some young men who were skylarking about the-place. The firm is out about four dollars for repairs and there Is no clue to the mischief-makers. They ran away after the glass was broken and the police did not put in an appearance uutil some time after. The affair occuixKI at about seven o'clock: in the evening. Slippery Larkln.

Yesterday morning Councilman Melus- key, who is a member of the firm robbed, was notified that the warehouse door was open and showed marks of violence.

Chief of Police O'Hara was notified and upon descriptions furnished by residents In the vicinity he arrested Samuel Starr, of East Apple alley, and Edward Walters, of West Oak street. The men at first denied their guilt, but subsequently confessed to stealing two 100-pound bags of flour. They claimed that the lock was broken when thpxr f visited the place. They were committed to'the Pottsvllle jail this morning by Justice Cardin. Three 50-pound bags of flour- were found in a closet of the garret In Wal ters' house, thus disproving the story of the men that they only stole two bags. xuey also claimed mat they bad no ac complice, but residents of the neighbor hood say that one man stood guard out side the warehouse while two men were at work inside No alarm was given be cause is was thought at the time that the men were employes of the Meluskey'B.
