Beolky, Prop. WAS AN IMP0STER. A Shamokln Young Man in the Meshes of the Law. About two weeks ago a well dressed youiig man registered at the Ferguson House as Harry E. Miller. He represented himself as a resident of Erie, Pa., and a government Inspector of boilers, nnd pro duced documents to prove his identity, On Tuesday last he left the hotel, leaving an unpaid board bill of til. 79. Mr. Hutchison, the proprietor, asked for his money in the morning of that day. "Miller" said he was going to the depot to meet his wife, who would bring him money. He did not appear again. When "Miller" became a guest of the hotel he had no baggage. He said his tools were at the Indian Ridge colliery office. This statement was learned to be fale after the young man disappeared. A search of his room disclosed an over coat and fome papers purporting to con' tain data gleaned by "Miller" during his work as a boiler inspector. They con tained addresses of boiler manufacturers In different parts of the ountry, the names of several collieries in this region, including some in Shenandoah, a supposed fictitious report of the condition of some colliery boilers and a draft of a love letter signed "Harry E. Miller" and addressed to a young lady of Shamokln. All this data was written on letter heads belonging to the Edison Electric Illumi nating Company of Shamokin. The papers were turned over to County De tective Amour who left for Shamokln yesterday morning. He called upon the Edison station people and was in formed that the only person who had access to the letter heads sho.vn was one Calvin E. Shull, a Shamokln man who had worked for the company about flye days as a wire man. Amour hunted up nnd found Shull, who was very indignant when plnued- under arrest. Ho said his name was not Harry E. Miller. Amour retorted, "I know that, but you are the man I want. You are Calvin E. Shull." The young man wilted then and accom panied Amour to this town last evening. He was given a hearing before Justice Williams nnd committed to the Potts vllle jail in default of $200 bail. It is said the data about boilers disclosed by the papers found in Shull's room was entirely flctitious,and based upon general iuforuia tion concerning the method of inspecting boilers from the engineer of the Shnmo km electric light house.

HELPING THE P00R0F TOWN Charitable Steps Being Taken in Many Quarters. A CONCERT TO BE GIVEN Prominent Citizens Form a Committee to Help the Project Along Good Work of the Five Cent Club. Active steps for the relief of thedeserv- ing poor are being takenin many quarters of the town. Among the latest is a movement to hold n grand concert In Fer guson's theatre on Thursday, March 14th. It has been started upon the suggestion ot Prof. F. ifeltz, and a committee of prominent and responsible citizens have been placed In charge. They are John J. Bradigan, Thomas Balrd, William M. Brewer, P. J. Ferguson, J. S. Cnllen, M. D.. Charles Radzewlcz, Daniel' Lauderman, C. M. Bordner, D. D. S., D. W. Straub, M. D., A T. Jones, Philip Biermann, P. J. Gaughan, Charles E. Titman, W. N. Stein, M. D., and H. A. Swalm. The officers of the committee are P. J. Fergu son, president; J. Spencer Callers, vice president; C. M. Bordner, secretary; William M. Brewer, treasurer. Prof. F. Zeitz, Philip Bierman, John J. Bradigan and Charles Radziewlcz have been ap pointed a committee on music. The price of admission to the concert will be placed at tho low price of 25 cents and reserved seats will be sold at 10 cents extra. The chart will he opened at Klrlln's drug store. , The movement of the Five Cent Club, Instituted by the "Ys," has met with most gratifying success and Miss PrU- cilia Smith, who has charge of the work, finds trouble in keeping up with it. The Five Cent Club solicits weekly contribu tions of 5 cents a week for the relief of the pojor. It has been in active operation about ten days. During that time twelve dollars have been collected, although but four of the twelve collectors have thus far reported. The result has exceeded the most sanguine expectations of the pro jectors.; ' During the past ten days sixteen fnmi lies have been reported in distress to Miss Smith and she has made seventeen visits. In some instances there have been mis takes in giving addresses nnd the visitor has not been able to locate the reported families, and three or four cases have been found in which nid wag not deserving. Miss Smith says that while many of the families were In need of food, the most of them suffer most from want of clothing. Anyone wishing to make con tributions can send them to Miss Smith, in care of Mrs. S. G. M. Hollopeter, 24 South White street. Two families were found in great distress. One consisted of n woman aud eight children and another of a widow of two months and two children. The Five Cent Club exercises every pre caution before disposing of its funds to applicants and none are relieved until their cases are investigated. This rule is made imperative by past experience. Not long ago & resident ot East Oak street gayjawoman who applied for relief a barrel of flour and a quantity of clothing for herself and husband. A few days after the woman was seen drunk on the streets. In distributing relief the club takes tho greatest pains to avoid being imposed upon by such people. Adrich Burled. Felix Adrich,. one of the victims of the explosion at the Wm. Penn colliery, was burled to day. The funeral was attended by the Guards of Warsaw and Citizens Polaskl Society and was a very large one. The Wm. Penn band furnished the marching music for the societies.

Senntor Landis' American llaif bill ie the proper thing. There won't re so many rebel brigadiers in the next Congress. Governor Hastings shows a disposition to wield a ready veto pen. Hon. Seth Orme, of St. Clair, cuts quite a figure in Harriaburg. Lawyer Lyon, ot Mahanoy City, would have made a good Oiphaus' Court Judge. It is said Major Lo-on smiled loudly when he heard of the fate of the Orphan n Court bill. County Chairman Burd Payne is going into the newspaper business. We wlsli him luck ; there's millions in it. Representative Wyntt cannot be blamed that his company store bill was given a quietus. He says he will resurrect it. Governor Hastings seems to know where he is at. Lobbyists are not making much headway at Harrisburg this year. Tom Reed is looming up again as the coming Czar. He will not need to bent about the bush to count a quorum in the next House. The Democrats would like to see an extra session of Congress called in order that the Republicans might help shoulder the hard times. It does not look as if Loach, White house, Gressang, et al., had been retired to oblivion. They seem to be at the top of the heap just now. The Democrats expect that the trouble between Lawyers Seltzer and Brumtn will furnish them plenty ot campaign thunder for the next election. Look for a great revival In business after the adjournment ot the present Congreas. Manufacturers will breathe more freely and have confidence for the future. The Republican party is their safeguard. The Crawford county system of making nominations wis very successful in Shen andoah and Mahanoy City, and some of the other towns in the county are anxious to try it. The county organization should also adopt the plan. A Happy Man Is he who uses Red Flag Oil for Rheuma tism, Neuralgia, Toothache and chronic pains. It's a remedy which cures every time.
