The Ninth Penn'a Volunteers reached home at 10 o'clock Monday night after five months 1 campaigning and were wel comed in Wilkes bar re by 30,000 people from all over the county. The night was lit with the glare of red lire, and loud with the boom of cannon, the shriek of whistles, the blare of firegongs and the ringing of bells, and this con tinned froin the time the train entered the city limits until the regiment reach ed the armory. The streets through which the regi ment marched were brilliant with light and gay with the color of bunting and colored lanterns. The parade was headed by Alexander's band, the police and the firemen of the city in dress uniform: then came the regiment and behind them the members of the reception committee; the city officials and the members of the city council In carriages. The inarch was a short one, the men going almost directly to the armony. There long tallies were spread, and were well-laden with substantial eatables. The soldiers were waited upon by a committee of one hundred ladies. The regiment looked in fairly good shape, although of its 1,320 men loss than 000 wore in lino. Twenty-four gave up their lives, twenty-five are sick In the hospital at Lexington, Ky., a dozen at Harrisburg. half a dozen at Philadelphia, and the remainder are home on sick leave, several being in tho Wllkeabarre hospitals. Those who aro strong enough to walk marched with their companies and dined at the armory. The twelve companies of the rcgimont went direct to Wilkesbarre, and after tho big reception tho soldiers were given a month's furlough, at the expiration of which they will be mustered out, unless the peace negotiations fail. Next day the companies from other towns left for their homos, and every place repeated the big reception of Mon day night.

Mr. Oberrender testi fied, as did also two of the employes of the company, that on Friday afternoon, September 9, between 4 and 5 o'clock, Kotcski appeared at Drlfton and inquir ed for tho mine boss. When told he was still in tho mines ho wended his way to the office.

The accused denied the chargo, and claimed that he worked in No. 4 Jeddo on the day in question, and could provo an alibi. Ho is a Pole and seems about half-witted. Alderman Laubauch held him in the sum of 81,000 bail, in default of which ho was committed. Dcafiieos Cannot be Cured by local applications, HA they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear.
