One of the Four Companies of State Police Located at Punxs'y. On Monday it was officially announced that one of the four companies of state police authorized by the last legislature would be "located In Punxsutawney. The announcement was made by Capt. John C. Groome, superintendent of the Department of State Police, of Harris burg, who was here and accepted the terms and conditions offered by the Board of Trade and prominent citizens for the location of the barracks at this place. For many years there had been a de mand from the country districts throughout the state for better police service. Robberies were being commit ted on every hand, safes were being cracked and lawless men roaming about at will. The local officers were with out sufficient authority or means to leave their bailiwicks to pursue these outlaws and the consequence was that most of these malefactors escaped. In fractions of the game and fish laws and the statutes relating tooforests and fires are constantly being violated and the establishment of this new department Is designed to give country districts a ser vice much the same as that vouchsafed by the police force of a city. As a beginning the law provides for four companies, to be composed of a captain, a lieutenant, five sergeants and fifty privates each, a total of 57 men. The other companies will be loca'od at GroonBburg, Reading and Wllkosbarro, respectively. The organization at this place will bo known as Troop C. Captian J. F. Robinson, formerly city editor of the Bradford Star, and an officer In the Sixteenth Regiment, N. G. P., will have charge of the Punxsu tawney station. The men have all been selected and about 50 of them have been ordered to report In Punxsutawney Fri day and Saturday. While here Monday Captain Groom and Captain Robinson had plans drawn up for repairing and remodeling the main building In the fair grounds which will be used for temporary quarters. Work was begun on the building at once and until It Is ready the mon will be provided for In town. PunvButawnoy Spirit B. R. & P. Ry. Clerical Orders.
