Herald, who is em ployed at the Lappin Brake Shoe Works, in that place, on Monday morn ing killed a thief that had robbed him in the factory. Mr. Benoit Friday night returned to the shop, where he had some work to do. and, taking off L his waistcoat, laid It on his bench. Af- A ter finishing his work he put on his vest and left the shop. As he passed out he placed his hand in his pocket and discovered that two-one-dollar bills were missing. Thinking they had dropped out. he went back to the works and hunted without success. The affair had an uncanny look and Mr. Benoit, leaving the place once more, talked over the mystery with his friends. He returned to the works on Monday morning and placed his vest again on the bench. In the pocket was a piece of green paper. He heard a scratching noise near and looking in that direction saw a mouse climb up on the bench, extract the pa per and run off with It. Mr. Benoit <■' watched the little animal and saw it creep through a hole at the base of the partition. He tore off the boards of the latter and there found his money lining the mouse's nest. The mouse he killed. Little Irene Myers.

The denizens of the staid old village of Upper Lehigh are worked up to a great pitch of excitement over tho phe nominal manifestation of some unknown force that turns things topsy turvey in a house on Spring street. A few deaths have occurrod in this house recently and since that time the residents of the block have been compelled to liee in the night and throw themselves upon tho generosity of their neighbors for shelter. Mrs. Samuel Herring, who lived in one end of the so-called haunted house, told tho writer of tho terrible racket and tho strange manifestation of some superna tural agency that made her life so un bearable that she was compelled to help her son from his sick bed and desert her homo and floe to a neighbors house where she would be free from tho un canny things that infested her home. Mrs. Herring is very sincere in the statement that some unknown forces have taken forcible possession of the building and her son, a young man of 20 years, corroborates his mother's state ment and says that iiis life was made so miserable that he was compelled to leave his bed whon sick with tho grip when it endangered his health to do so. No matter what may be the cause of strange phenomena it is safe to say that it will be easy to get a house to lease on Spring street, Upper Lehigh, for some time to come. Minldler* AoHlgned.

Jersey Central Grievance Cominillee MPPIM l'r**ident Maxwell Today-Par tial Victory for D. L, & W. Engineer*. ■Uglier Price* for Coal. Every employe of the Jersey Central between Sciantou and Jersey City on Tuesday anxiously awaited news from New York regarding the conference be tween grievance committees, made np of representatives of the various rail road brotherhoods, and officers of the company. The conference, however, was postponed until today. At a meet ing of the grievance committee, hold in Phillipsburg a few days ago, it was de termined to lay before President Max well, of the Central Railroad, difficulties which have agitated the men for nearly a year. Tuesday was tiie day lixed for a coming together of the officials and the committee at the company's offico in New York. President Maxwell could not make it convenient to meet the men, so the conference went over. It has been planned to re-enforce the general grlevanco committee with a representa tive from each of the live brotherhood organisations between Scranton and Jersey City. It is believed that the em ployes' demand will be agreed to. John W. Fitzgibbon, superintendent of motive power for the Dolaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad, lias resigned, lie Is succeeded by H. Mark house, of Chicago. Fitzgibbon did not state the causes which led up to his resignation, but it is known that the principal one was his difference with the Engineers' Brotherhood, the dis missal of Chief Troch, of the Scranton division of engineers, and other griev ances along all lines, which were surely fomenting a strike. The grievance committees refused longer to treat with Mr. Fritzglbbon, and the inability of the labor organizations and the superin tendent to agree is considered the direct cause of his resignation. The contracting season for 1000-01 Is now opening and proposals are being asked on good-sized tonnages of anthra cite and bituminous coal. A notable feature in this connection is the much higher asking llgures on all grades and on all kinds of coal than obtained a year ago. These new and higher prices are due to increased wages to miners, the advance in railroad rates and a little better margin of profit to the pro ducers. Tliis latter is the much desired stop in the right direction.— Chicago Black Diamond. Tho miners of the A. J. Davis colliery at Warrior Run have returned to work, all differences having been settled. Tho men complained of excessive dock age and wanted tho privilege of riding up the slope. Several conferences were held and at last a satisfactory conclu sion was readied.

William Wallace, of Sandy Run, has been appointed assistant mine foreman at No. 2 colliery, Highland. Vory poor time Is being made by D. S. it S.

Tho facts concerning one of the most peculiar tragedies which has occurred In tills part of tho state reached town on Monday. Alfred Stout and wife, aged abulia -in years, resided alone on a farm near tho little village of Hottlervillo, which Is situated across the Luzorno Hue In Columbia county. Along with other stock Stout owned a bull which was known to be vicious, but which ho had been able in tho past to manage. For several days the neighbors had not soen any signs of life about the Stout borne, and this at last led to an investi gation.
