How did Strousc, tho leading Jeweler of Shenandoah, succeed in getting tho contracts to furnish tho Shenandoah, Girardvillc and Mt. Carmel High schools with commence ment rings? That is an easy question to answer. Simply by ottering tho best goods, tho latest novelties, at prices that most jewelers outsido tho largo citios ask for in ferior articles. Strouse, the Jeweler, not only adopts this plan to win purchasers of rings, but extends it to sales of watches, chains, lockets, gold and silverware of all kinds for all purposes, and never makes a sale on exaggerated representations.

Eisen hower agreed to this, hut upon arrlvhsg home comtneucod to light with his wife. Schwindt interforoil nnd in tho strugglo that followed Elsenhower sustained a fractured rib. The Diitrict Attorney then touched upon suits beforo Justices against Elsenhower ou com plaint of tho wlfo for assault nnd battery and gradually brought up a roviow of tho circumstances of tho shooting. At this feint Mrs. John Schwindt, tho widow of the mur dered man, her two little girls and Mrs. William Schwindt bocamo so much airected that thoy wept audibly and they were induced to loavo tho court room tem porarily, uuder escort of ox-Chief Burgoss James Smith, who is looking after details of the trial in connection with tho District At torney's ollico. Mr. Bechtol, in outlining tho law, told tho jury that if in his intent to shoot William Schwindt Eisenhower killed John Schwindt ho was just as guilty of murder iu tho first degree as if ho intended to poison William Schwindt nnd gavo tho potion to John. Mr. Bechtcl also stated that the Commonwealth proposed insisting upon a verdict of murder in tho first degree, upon the grounds of intent and malice and leavo tho decision to tho jury upon tho evidence Mr. Bechtol spoke fifteen minutes. Tho first witness called for tho prosecution was Mrs. Itachel Schwindt, widow of tho murdered man. John F. Wlialcn, Esq., con ducted tho direct examination, which opened with interrogatories concerning tho name, etc., of herself and tho deceased nnd the circumstances under which ho was brought homo ou that fatal day. Mrs. Schwindt said sho had two daughters present in court. The witness wept whilo on tho stand, but suc ceeded in sulllciently controlling her emotions to answer tho questions with distinctness. Mrs. Schwindt said sho had been married ten years. William and John Schwindt wcro twin brothors, thero was a closo rescmblanco to each other aud both worked at the Turkey Run colliery. Her husband lived from tho 17th to tho 2Gtli of February. Ho was un conscious from Wednesday morning, 22nd., until ho died. Congressman Brumm conducted tho cross- examination of tho witness, but made it very oriel and only put threo questions as to tho condition of her husband when ho reached home. Dr. J. G. Church was tho second witness. Ho said ho was a graduato of tho University of Pennsylvania, resided at Shenandoah, and practiced as a physician almost continu ally during tho past niuo years. Ho was called in to attend tho victim after tho shoot ing. Ho described tho condition of tho victim and tho naturo of tho wound. Schwindt did not suffer particularly from loss of blood. The bullet entered the back and almost entirely severed tho spinal cord, causing paralysis of tho lower limbs. Tho cause of death was duo to tho severing of tho spinal cord. Dr. J. C. Biddlo extracted tho bullet on February 18th. Dr. J. S. Callen was present, Tho witness produced bullet. Schwindt was conscious when Drv Church was first called and remained so almost up to latter part of tho last day. Ho had in flammation of tho brain and that caused him to bo delirious on tho last day. Tho sever ing of the spinal cord by tho bullet was tho causo of tho inflammation. Tho bullet wound was necessarily fatal. Cross-examined by Mr. Brumm, Dr. Church told how ho found John Schwindt aud pro ceeded to mako an examination of tho wound, tho timo involved aud who wero present, among them being Drs. J. Pierco Hoberts, J. S. Callen and D. W. Straub. AH failed to successfully probe for tho bullet and Dr. Church concluded to scud for Dr. Biddlo aud an operation was performed tho next morning. Mr. Brumm put Dr. Church through a rigid examination as to tho treat ment lie gavo tho patient pending tho opera tion, tho steps attending the operation. Tho doctor was taken closo to tho jury box and, prompted by Mr. Brumm, described with pencil and paper tho location of the wound and tho incisions that wero made for tho operation. So much timo was spent by Mr. Brumm in this lino of examination many formed tho opinion that tho defeuso may assert that tho bullet wound was not neces sarily fatal. Tho patient had not recovered from tho opiates two hours after tho opera tion, Dr. Church tostifled, but his condition was good. His pulso was as near normal as could beexpectcdand hisbreathlng as natural as it could bo under tho Influcuco of drugs. His heart was acting nicely and not as if under tho influence of drugs. Tho patient's condition was also very favorablo in tho evening at 0 o'clock, but ho was still un der tho effects of tho opiatos. Tho doctor succeeded in getting him awako for n few minutos to nsk him how ho felt. Dr. Church was closely examined as to all his visits to tho patient and tho treatment. Mr. Brumm : "If tho wound was neces sarily fatal, why all this operation aud treat ment ?" Dr. Church : "To do all wo could for him. To allay guttering. Tho effect of tho injury was known, but not tho extent." Dr. Church said that in his professional opinion thero was no risk In pushing tho operation to extract tho bullet after' tho operation had gono so far as to disclose that spinal cord had been affected, neither was there any good to bo obtained. Dr. Church was cross-oxamiuod for about one hour and twenty-fivo minutos, and left tho stand at 11:30. Dr. J. Piorco Itoberts, of Shenandoah, was called but only oceupibd tho stand about flvo minutes. No cross examination. Dr J. C. Kiddle, of the Miners hospital at Fountain Springs, was called nnd subjected to an examination for about 33 minutes. The doctor described an examination of tho wound and an operation performed upon Schwindt after tho shooting. Ho said tho only chance tho patient had was to remove the pressuro ou tho spinal cord. Tho oporatiou was per formed by making au incision in tho back, Ho found tho bullet imbedded about 10 inches iu tho vertebra, and severed tho spinal cord about half. Asido from tho wound tho deceased was a healthy nnd strong man. I u llama t ion of tho spinal cord caused by tho bullet was tho causo of death. The Injury meant perpetual paralysis, whether tho bullet was removed or not, Tho spinal cord can not bo mended; tho spinal column may bo repaired, but never the com. The Commonwealth introduced two photo graphs of tho locality where tho shooting occurred. They woro admitted without objection. Elmer F. Bechtol, of Pottsvillc, mining engineer for tho Glrard Estate, identified rnaps of tho locality of the shooting. Tho morning session then closed. AITEKNOON KLK3ION. The afternoon session was opened at 2:00 o'clock, when Surveyor Itechtsl was called to the staud again aud described maps ho had iiiiulo. Harry W. Smith, of Shenandoah, son of ex-Chief Burgess James Smith, was the next witness. Ho told tho same story ns that which ho testified to at tho hearing beforo JustlcoT.T. Williams. Smith Is a painter by tmdo and was lettering a window at tho Cliarmcy saloon, at tho lower end of Main street. Ho saw two miners coming up tho railroad through tho cut. When thoy wero n short distanco from tho boardwalk crossing tho track Elsenhower walked out and shot John Schwindt in tho back. Tho witness nnd Georgo Boyor chased tho prisoner over tho rocks nnd finally captured him nt tho lower end of Main street. On tho way to Justice Williams' otllco Eisenhower said ho had shot William Schwindt. In tho Justlco office tho prisoner said William Schwindt had broken up his homo and ho had shot him. Smith was still on tho staud at 3,30 aud had not yet been cross-examined, HOOD'S PIIjTjS cure Liver Ills, Biliousness, Indigestion, Ilcndnche. A pleasant laxative. All Druggists. Killed tho Hog.

Tho hogs belonged to a resident of Turkey Bun, and ono of them was n lino porker weighing 230 rounds. Tho dog nttacked tho hog In tho water, and after a sovero clubbing by soveral men, and tho water in tho dam nt tho Cnmbridgo colliery had been turned on, tho dog finally released his hold only to nttack tho other hog. Ho was finally knocked insenslhlo nnd returnod to tho slaughter house. Ono of tho hogs has since died, and it is probahlo tho other will not succumb tho nttack. Fancy goods suitable for gifts.
