THE PLOTTERS WERE Apperhended Through the C onfesstons of One of the Gang. A remarkable story was told a few days ago by a young man named Krise, which led to the arrest and incarcera- tion of himself and three other young men of Clearfield township. The in- former and two others were of the ‘same name and the fourth is a young man named Coogan. The story told was that the four had conspired and agreed to burn three farm barns, and did destroy one; belonging to Mr. Lamadue, of Clearfield township, about a year ago, which the people living in the vicinity of Patton, will remember. Ths others to be burned belong to Frank Nagle and T. M. Sheehan, both well known and respected. citizéns. of the northern end of the county. The quartet had laid their plans deliberate- ly, but up to the present had generated sufficient nerve to burn but one. ~The “confessor” did not explain what object they had in view. They will spend the ramainder of the winter in juil, where they were taken Monday, and perhaps many months more, and’ the farmers in the township will feel easier with the knowledge that such dangerous characters are behind the baru. The exposure was due to a dispute , which arose among the boys. ELECTION NOTICE. The Borough School Board Authorizes » Vota ou the Issue of Bonds, ANNUAL ELECTION OF BANK OFFICERS.
