"Illil Ned" ltelley Kiplren at Justice Shoe
milker' Ofllco.
F.dward Rciley, an old and eccentric char
acter of town who was known to almost
ovcry ndtillnnd child in tho borough, ou ac
count of his odd appearance, peculiar, shamb
ling unit and eccentric habits, died suddenly
at Justice Shoemaker's ottlce tills morning.
"Old Ned," as lie was generally known, was
in tho habit of making two or three visits
dally to tho ollico wbllo on his tour of tho
business places in iiuest of alms. His visits
to the Justice wcro to cither ask when Ids
nojt pension money would fall due, havo his
vouchers prepared to collect tho Installment,
or get "a few clntsfor soino tobacky," inoro
fn ijucnlly for tho latter purpose,
At about lt:10 this morning "Old Ned"
shambled Into the Justice's oll'ico. Ho stood
for a moment or two near the desk nt which
Justice Shoemaker was writing, hut said
nothing. It was noticed that "Nod" stag
gered n step or two, but no particular atton
tcntlon was paid to it, as tho old man fre
quently tottered in tho peculiar walk ho
had. Tho Justice was so much absorbed In
his writing that he paid no attention to tho
visitor. "Old Nod" turned around and
made his way slowly out of tho ofllco to tho
hallway leading to the ttairs. Ho mado but
few slops In the hall when ho stopped ami
slowly sank to tho floor. W. Shoemaker,
Esq , was ibout to leave tho ollico loss tban
two minutes after "Ned" left and saw tho
unfoitunato man in a sitting position, with
Ills head reding against tho wall. His pipo
was still In bis mouth. "Horo's 'Old Ned' on
tho floor," said tho lawyer to his brother,
Sauford, who was in tho ollico. Tho latter
remarked that something must havo gone
wrong. The two men went into tho hall
way. They tuund lieiley motionless anil
not a boat in the pulse. Tho old man wis
carried back luto tho ntllce and stretched out
upon a settee. Dr. J. O. Church was hur
rledly called, hut tho victim was dead beforo
ho arrived. It is supppused dcatli was caused
by heart failure. Undertaker I-nuioy re.
moved tho remains to tho homo of tho de-
deascd, on West Lloyd street.
Iteiley was about bo years of ago and leaves
a wifo and two adult daughters. He was
veteran of the civil war and drew a pension
of $13 per mouth. Ho enlisted in the three
yoar servico and was a privato in Co. I), 107th
Rcgt., Pa. Vol. Inf. Ho enlisted on Feb. 12,
1802. On Aug. 9th of the samo year ho was
wounded iu tho right hand at tho battle of
Cedar Mountain, Virginia. Tho shot ciippled
his hand and ho was mustered out of sorvico
Mar. 20, 1SU3, on a surgeon's certificate.
An iiiHUcst is to be held In tho caso. It is
alleged that a week ago last Friday night
ttio old man was assaulted and three of ids
ribs fractuicd. Tho inquest will determine
tho truth of the report and tho bearing tho
injuries may havo had upon his death.

he Was Evidently Not respon
sible Tor the Affair.
Some excitement was occasioned on West
Ccntro street at about six o'clock last even
lug by an accident through which a child
was sorlously injured and an attack by the
father of tho victim upon the young man
whom lie charged witli being responsible for
Ii is child's injuries.
A driver in tho employ of Swift & Co
named Fred. Kobcrts was on his way along
the street named with a load of meat
whon ouo of his horses knocked down
and stepped upon liornadatta, tho three year
old daughter of Oeorgo Uraitis, ouo of the
borough pollco. As tho child fell Hoborts
swerved his horses so that tho wheels of tho
wagon cleared tho victim. Roberts then
stopped his team, alighted from tho wagon
and wont back to ascortaln tho result of the
accident. A woman named Parrish residing
in the neighborhood had already picked the
child up and carried it to its homo nearby.
Roberts went back to Ins wagon and drove to
the store where ho was to mako his delivery.
While ho was there Policomau Uraitis run up
to the placo greatly excited and grabbed
Roberts by tlio throat. Bystanders interfered
and the policeman was finally induced to
leave.
When tho child was taken to its homo It
was found to be seriously injured. l)rs. C. S.
IMiillins and S. M. Fetzer wcro called and
thov found that the victim had sustained a
fracture of the right tniifU. ino iracuiru
was reduced.
Last night tlio father of tho olnld prose
cuted Roberts beforo Justice Shoemaker, al
leging that ho "atrociously and maliciously
drove ovor the street crossing at a greater
sDcod than was lawful and prudent in regaid
to tho richts of pedestrians, and thus
knocked down and drove over deponent's
child." The accused waived a hearing and
entered $300 bail for trial at court.
Roberts donies tho charge made against
him and gives his version of the atlair. lie
says it was an accident ovor which he had no
control ; that his horses wero ou a walk.
There were some cows passlug aloug the
street and the child, who had started across,
took fright at tho approach of tho cows and
siiddculv dashed in front of the horse. Ho
says ho has a number of witnesses, including
tho woman who tucked un tbo child, to prove
the circumstances as ho states them.

THE MAN
WITH THE HAlYiriERl
The man who wields the hammer
witli (lie most flourish and nukes the
most noise isn't always the one who
drives the most nails. His nails
may be bent, his hammer poor, and
when the day's work is done he'll be
behind. We drive bargains, not
nails, but our stock is up in quality.
The blows of our hammer are
accurate and regular. We are mak
ing a winning record every day in
our GROCERY line.
