needed.
A resolution was passed that on all

51 list Pay Dearly for Ills Learning.
From the Wilkcsburro Newsdealer.
An interesting case involving the
rights of tenants and landlords was
heard by Alderman Donahue Monday.
John Lancashire is a tenant living in a
bouse of Louis Smullyan. this city. On
Tanuary 2 last Lancashire moved into
tho house and by the provisions of the
lease he was to pay $0 a month. He
paid his rent February 1 and March
I, after which thorn was no rent due
until April 2. On March 20, however,
the landlord sent Constable Evans with
i distrained warrant to collect the
amount of rent for the month of March.
The constable compelled Lancashire to
pay tho money, together with tho costs,
amounting in ail to $7.
Lancashire consulted his attorney,
John T. Lenahan, and tho result was
tiiat lie brought suit against Smullyan
for SIOO damages. At tho hearing the
landlord stated, byway of defense, thai
be was ignorant of tho law and was
if raid that if his tenant moved April 1
he could not collect Ids rent. Squire
Donohuo told Mr. Smullyan lie had
made a mistake; that a landlord in
Pennsylvania lias such extraordinary
powers with tenants that they must be
very careful how they proceed to collect
rent. If they make a mistake, said the
squire, as in this case, they must pay
for it. He therefore entered judgment
in plaintiff's favor for the amount claim
ed, SIOO.

Ex-Bunker F. V. Rockafeliow was
again placed on trial this week for em
bezzlement, the prosecutrix being Mrs.
Annie Meier, one of the last-day de
positors. It was this case which was
taken before the supreme court on the
contention by tho defense that, having
been convicted on one count of tho in
dictment there being some prosecutors.
Rockafeliow could not be tried on the
remaining counts, tho trial of one being
the trial of all. Tho defense was sus
tained by the lower court, lint the deci
sion was reversed by tho supreme court.
Tho trial was accordingly called on
Monday, and, as all tho Luzerne county
judges are depositors in the bank, or
otherwise, personally interested in this
ease, Judge Searle. of Montrose, was re
quested to preside.

I dictuient, on the ground that it did not
show that the witnesses before the

was not completed until Tuesday morn
ing.
