Affi m - L) cislon of Jefferson County Court In Second Trial for Criminal Offense. At tho April term of Jefferson county court lt year, 1900, Genaro Mezzo notte and Domlnio Raumano, of Sykes vllle, were convicted of assault with Intent to kill, and wore sentenced to seven years In the penitentiary. Tholr victim, John Slezewlcz, who bad been shot and stabbed near his home at Sykesvllle In January, 190fi, died soon after tbe two men were con victed and taken to tbe penitentiary. Tony Loretto, wbo was Implicated In tho crime and escaped, was arrested at Dunkirk. N. Y., after Slegewioz's death, and brought to the Jefferson oounty jail and at the January term of court in 1907 was convicted of murder In tbe first degree. Mazzenotte and Raumano, by habeas corpus proceed ings Instituted by District Attornoy Jas. V. Murray, were taken out of the penitentiary and brought back to Brookville and tried at tbe April term of court In present year on charge of murder. Raumano was found guilty of murder In tbe first degree and Mezzenotte was found guilty of murder In Second degree, and in view of the fact tbat Loretto and Mezzenotte did the stabbing and Ranmano fired the fatal shot, tbe Commonwealth assented to have the verdict of first degree against Loretto lowered to second de gree, same verdict given Mezzenotte, leaving Raumano the only one of the tbree convicted of murder in first de gree. On tbe grounds that the habeas corpus proceedings, by virtue of which Raumano and Mezzenotte were taken from the penitentiary, we re "unlawful, and was a bar to a trial for murder. tho case was appealed to the Supreme Court, but tho Supreme Court last Friday affirmed the verdict of tbe Jefferson county court. Sheriff Scheafnocker will iikely have the unpleasant job of executing Rau mano before the expiration of bis term as sheriff. Mothers' Conference.

CAUGHT IN FLAMES Two Infant Daughters of William Morton Burned to Death. House Caughtt. Fire While the Children Were Alone in it and Perished While the Agonized Mother 'Stood Outside, Powerless to Aid Them. About two o'clock Thursday after-" noon, November 14, 1907, a sad, distres sing and heart-breaking calamity befell Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Morton, a young couple of Soldier, when their two little daughters were burned to death and their home and all their household goods were consumed by fire. Nothing has ever stirred the sympathy'of the citizens of Soldier and community be fore as has this great sorrow and loss that came to Mr. and Mrs Morton oa the 14th Inst. They were not only left childless, but al?o homeless and without any clothing save that which they were wearing the afternoon of the fire. Mr. Slortbn, wbo was working in the mines when bis children and borne were burned, bad only bis working- clothes and bad to borrow a euit to come to Reynoldsville to arrange for burial of his children. Thursday" afternoon Mrs. "Morton took her two daughters, Ethel, aged three years and a half, and Esther, aged two years and a hair, to a neighbor's and left them while she went on to an- ' other neighbor's house to see about a dress pattern. Shortly after the moth er bad gone the two little tots slipped off home and soon after the neighbors, d Iscovered M r. Morton's house was on fire. The mother rushed fran tically Into the kitchen to look for her darllngs.'but was driven back by fierce flames. Mrs. Morton thought she saw the face of one of the girls at the dining room window and she' and one of the men, who hsd hastened to assist In any way possible, broke in tte window, hop ing to rescue one or both of the child ren, but the fierce flames drove them buck. After the flameB had accom" pllehed the awful work of destroying ! and property, the charred body of uiiu 01 mo nine gins wbs lounrj near tbe dining room window, where the mother had gotten a glimpse of the child's face, and the other littlecharred body was found near the kitchen door, where the mother had first been driven back by tbe flames. Tbe origin of the fire will never be positively known, but Mr. Morton thinks it was started from a defective flue. Before Mrs. Morton left her borne tbat fatal afternoon, the stirred the fire In the heating stove and closed the stovo door and the supposition la that when the little girls entered the house the building was then on fire and tbat they were unable to e-icann anil thus met a horrible death. s Funeral service was held at the Sol dier Hotel, Mrs. Alrx. Watson beln a sister of Mrs. Morton, at 2 30 Friday arternoon, conducted by Dr. J. A. Par sons, pastor of tte ReynoldBville M. E. church, and tbe charred trunks of the two little girls were buried in one casket In Beulab cemetery. Mrs. Morton's maiden came was Ellen Carney. ". Publi- Sale.
