Poul and Horrible Crime,
At the April term of thn Elk county
court, Fred Rockwell, of that county,
who Is now in tho Forest county jail
with three other prisoners for robbery,
one of whom Is a pretty woman, Mrs.
Lewis Haines, will be tried for the foul
and horrible murder of Lewis Haines.
The crime was committed to get Haines'
wife, as Rockwell was In love with her
nd she with him. She told Rockwell
If Haines was out of the way she would
marry him. About the first of this
year the charred hody ot a man a as
found In a blacksmith shop at an old
log camp In Jones township, Elk county.
An Inquest was held and the jury ren-
red a verdict that "an unknown man
had met death in an unknown manner."
The District Attorney and County IV-
tective were not satisfied and the detec-
ve wiih put to work on the case. He
got on 1 ho right track, followed It up
ml the testimony given by the four
prisoners in the I' orest, county jail Inst
Wednesday tolls a horrible story of
lllelt love, man's perfldlty and woman's
worse thi'n weakness. I ho evidence
liken gives the following as facts In the
ase, Haines and Rockwell had Is 'en
ugaged in robbing stores in Kik and
djoinlng counties. Tho latter part of
leocmbor they started out on a robbing
xvo(llt!on. Ah they were passing the
serted camp Rockwell said his feet
were cold and suggested that they enter
the blacksmith shop and build a fire, as
it was a cold day. Haines was kneeling,
whittling kindling for the fire when
Rockwell picked up a heavy bar of Iron
and struck him over the hack of his
head, killing him instantly. He then
covered the body with brush and hoards
nnd set fire to It ami waited outside
until tho roof fell In. Ho then went to
Haines' house and when asked by tho
family what had become of Haines, told
how he had finished hltn. He had on
Haines' rulilsT hoots and cap when ho
returned without Haines. Mrs. Haines
acknowledged, on the wltnessstand, that
tho morning after the alleged murder
Rockwell camo home about five o'clock
and crawled in the window and got in
bed with her. She said she never cried
about her husband's death.
The evidence taken shows that
Haines and Rockwell had followed a
peddler to Marienville, Forest county,
to murder him for his money, but he
got on a train and escaped from them.

Attempted Fraud.
Some person made a clever attempt
to keen the names of the Prohibition
candidates of Washington township
from aDoearinsr on the township ticket,
and the fraud was not discovered until
Monday, when some one interested got
hold of a sample ballot. The t'ronioi-
tionists of Washing-ton township nomi
nated a ticket and tiled the certificates
of nomination with the commissioners
at the proper time, but some time after
this had been done, some person In the
township wrote to the oomreisslonerR,
and also telephoned to them, asking
that the list of names be returned to
Falls Creek. Whether the name-signed
to the letter or given over the tele
phone was a forged one or not, th com
missioners have not vet revealed. The
commissioners took the matter in good
faith and when the time for printing
the ballots was up and the Washington
township Prohibition candidates' names
bad not been returned, they naturally
enough had the ballots for that town
ship printed without tho Prohibition
list.
Yesterday morning the ballots, with
the Prohibition ticket thereon, were at
the proper polling places In the town
ship before seven o'clock. Two Prohi
bitionists from the township went to
Brookville on the afternoon train Moo
day to know why the Prohibition ticket
was omitted and learueu me iucis as
above stated. The commissioners were
not to blame, as they had been deceived,
but they were thrown liable to a line of
$2,000 apiece and one year Imprison
ment. Arrangements were quickly
made to have the ballots for Washing
township reprinted, the work to be
finished by one o'olock yesterday morn
ing, and a team was hired to be ready
at that time to deliver the ballots into
Washington township.
It Is probable that the commissioners
will make It interesting for the person
who attempted such a fraud, unless the
guilty person forged the uame of some
Prohibitionist and It cannot be disco v-
ered who did It. '
