Jo3eph Mundalwlcz, a Polish resident
of town, was taken to the county jail
yesterday, to await trial on a charge o
assault with Intent to kill, preferred by a
countryman. He was unable to get bail.
While the case was in progress before
Justice Hynkawlcz a man in the office
created a sensation by declaring that he
recognized in the accused a man who was
charged with murder at Buffalo, N. Y.,
and who escaped before he could be tried.
The man was to positive in his identifica
tion that the justice at once telegraphed
to a Polish priest at Buffalo requesting
Information as to the alleged murder and
full description of the man charged
with the deed. He received a reply that
letter giving all Information required
would be forwarded at once.
When seen by a reporter last night
Justice Hynkawlcz said he knew nothing
more about the case than what has been
stated here. As the suspected man was
unable to get bail in the other case no
aggressive steps were taken in connection
with the other case, He says that should
the man be the suspected murderer he
can be readily taken into custody, as he
cannot secure bail and will be obliged to
remain in custody at Pottsvllle until he
be tried on the charge of assault.
The case has caused a sensation among
the Polish residents of the town andthey
are awaiting the news from Buffalo with
much impatience. The accused denies
that he ever was in the city named.

A Curious Engine.
The locomotive used on O. E. Titman's
Oregon & Texas Railroad is in the shops
at Fall Brook for repairs. The O. & T.,
by the way, does not oxtend from the
state of Oregon to the state of Texas, but
is a log railroad terminating at Cammal,
Pa., on the Fall Brook. The engine is a
hill climber" and a curiosity in its way,
It works by means of cog wheels along a
horizontal shaft, these wheels connecting
at a -15 degree angle with larger ones on
the engine and tans axles. There are
three vertical cylinders from which
power is applied to the horizontal shaft
ing mentioned. All this machinery is on
one side only of the locomotive. The
truck wheels are of the ordinary type and
apparently the same as any other stand'
ard gauge engine. In company with a
number of our citizens we made sev
eral trips to the lumber camp behind;f
this wonderful engine and wore aniazec
at the speed and safety with which i,
hauled the train up the steep incline.

Late this afternoon a mexsage was re-
calved from Allentown stating that the
Easton people were not disposed to take
the Shenandoah State League base ball
franchise. The news had a very depress
ing effect upon the players here. They
are without any funds and have
been depending upon going to Easton.
This afternoon the players made arrange
ments to play a game at the Trotting
park with a picked nine next Sunday
afternoon. An admission of 15 cents will
be charged and the proceeds will be given
to the stranded men. The players are
Mattern, King, McCoach, Carey, Mc-
Garvey, Ford and Nevlns and they will
be assisted in the game by Hefron, Toole
and Reilly. A strong team will be
picked so as to give a game fully worth
the price ot admission.
Easton sports have not been so success
ful in securing enough money to en
courage them in taking the franchise of
the Shenandoah club in the State League.
Shenandoah can, and may yet, keep the
franchise. It remains with Superintend
ent Phillips, of the Lakeside Electric
Railway, to insure this. A number of
gentlemen ot town are ready to go into
tho scheme to take hold, provided Mr
Phillips will give them sufficient en
couragement to make it safe for them to
do so.
It is possible that, after the repeated
failures, Shenandoah will be represented
in tho League. There is a better feeling
prevailing for base ball since the last
collapse. Business men, hotel and saloon
keepers see nothing but a dull season
ahead In their respective lines of business
without this exciting national sport In
town.
Whatever is to be done must be done
quickly. The franchise will find a taker
sooner or later.
Nevlns, King, Mattern, Carey and Mo
Garrey will play with the Eastonsif that
town puts a team in the State League.
Alex. Donahoe will captain the team and
play center field.
The Pottsvllle management claims that
it has $o,000 in cash at its back. The
team will have new uniforms.
Efforts to organize a coal region league
are being revived.
Several of the stranded Shenandoah
players are still here. Tho majority of
them are awaiting orders from President
Hanlon to report at Easton.
'Tim" Nevlns says that the only
stranded player who took up a hat col
lection for railway fare home was Severs,
He has gone back to Portsmouth, O.
Clark, the short stop, has started for
Circleville, Ohio, via the truck line.
Hundreds of people regret that the
State League club went under, but
regrets can no more bring the club back
than wind could run it.

POLITICAL POINTS.
The newspaper onslaughts upon the
present board of Poor Directors has
frightened off many would-be candidates
for the office.
Chief Justice Fuller Is now the most
available person the Democrats could
select for their standard bearer iu the
next Presidential contest.
If the Democrats are wise this year they
will do justice to one of their most con
scientious men in their ranks by nominat
ing Dr. S. C. Spalding, ot townjfcKi
Coroner. 1
Admiral Meade would make a popular
candidate for the Presidency on the
Republican ticket. He is a thoroughbred
American and one who would be feared
by all foreign nations.
A. L. Shay, Esq., of Pottsvllle, will
probably carry off the District Attorney
ship in the Republican convention this
ear. His friends throughout the county
are working hard for him.
Unless the Legislature reconsiders Its
action of Tuesday, the Congressional,
Senatorial, Representative and Judicial
districts will remain as they are until a
new Legislature is elected.
