All night long three undet\ Iters with fifteen assistants labored wltli the charred pile of disfigured bod'fs. By daylight each body, together with what clothing had not been burned had been laid on separate planks, placed across the tops of the school house desks. The word that the terrible exhibit was ready, In a brief space of time, apread over the city, and at nine O'clock the greater proportion of the population of the little town was lined ilp before the school doors. Promptly at nine o'clock the doors ppened, and the waiting crowd was permitted to enter single file. More than one hundred bodies lay side by side on 'ihe planks, and every rew moments a stifled sob or a cry of the wildest anguish which arose from among the spectators, announced that a body had been identified. As fast as a body was identified, volunteers bore the victims to the homo where It belonged. Many of. the unfortunates who $vero looking for their loved ones cpllapsed completely upon finding the corpse, and the three physicians who were present, were kept busy administering restoratives. Burgess Kohler this morning Issued a proclamation announcing that .'1 bodies must be buried within three lays. This action is taken to pre'ent any disease that might possibly pread from the keeping of" the bodes too long. When the exploration of the ruitis Fas resumed this morning one l\un- Ired and sixty-eight bodies had been 'ecovered. It is not believed that nore than six or eight additional bodes will be found. Ail saloons In the town have been losed and the State Police, which rere called for, control the situation, ctlng under the orders of Burgess kohler, who is proving himself the lan of the hour.

DO TNITH IN REPORT Special to The Spirit. BROOKVILLE, Jan. 15.—Sheriff R. F. Sabate, of St. Johns County, Florida, who hail been in Brookvllle since the morning of January 1st, awaiting action of the Jefferson County Court upon, th* reqeust for the extradition of one Qabriella Colosimo, arrested at Fuller, this county, on December 26, by Policemen Barr and O'Donnell, of Brookvllle, and for whose extradition the Governor of Pennsylvania is-sucd his warrant on Tuesday of last week, left for St. Johns on Tuesday. At a hearing upon the application of the attorneys of Colialmo for a writ of habeus corpus, held before Judge John W. Reed on Monday night, considerable testimony was taken, Colosimo at that time attempting to disprove the Identification of Sheriff Sabate by setting up an alibi. To this end a number of witnesses were subpoenaed, among 'these being numerous residents of Brookvllle who testified that they are and have been for many years past, acquainted with Colosimo, and that to their personal knowledge tt would have been lmpos- 1 slble for the man to have been In Vt. Augustine at the time the alleged crime of murder was committed. Against this testimony the Commonwealth offered the testimony of Sheriff Sabate to the effect tha't he was personally acquainted with Col of the murder, and tha/t he absolutely and unqualifiedly Identified him as osimo at the time of the commission the man who committed the crime and for whom the authorities of St. Johns Coumty have held a warrant for fifteen years. Sheriff Sabate was corroborated by two young men of Fuller who testified that Colosimo at one time boasted to them of tthe fact that he had at one time shot a man in Florida, and  facts, taken in connection with the exact dovetailing: of the story of the murder as relaited to 'Squire Albert Baur of this place by an informant, . and the description of the murderer, with the facts in the case and with Colosimo's personal make-up, influenced the court to believe ithat the ends of Justice would be best subserved by the extradition of the prisoner and his trial in the courts of St. Johns Coumty. | W. L, McCracken, Esq., and E. A. Carmalt, Esq., were associated in the defense, and District Attorney Murray represented Sheriff Sabate, who appeared In the action as the agent of the State of Florida. The j»rder to Sheriff Scheafnocker was granted Tuesday morning and | the prisoner immediately turned over to Sheriff Sabate, who left on the 12:24 'train, accompanied by Policeman O'Donnell and a representative of the State Police, who accompanied the Sheriff and his prisoner as far as Driftwood. Colosimo will be brought to .trial at the April session of the court in St. Johns County. The crime for which the accused will be called to answer was the killing of Joseph L. Li!ambias, a promi- nent politician of St. Johns County, the felony being committed prior to January, 1892. Colosimo Museo, the informant in the case, is under the eye of the local authorities and if needed as "a witness can be secured by the State of Florida. and mother when she learned that Colosimo has a wife and grown son and the lamentation of the wife the effort to free the prisoner had failed and that he must accompany the officer to Florida, was pathetic. l'annops and Minors Trust Ooiupwijr Now lloa«ly for IIunIiiohh— J. II. Malzo, Tpoasurer. The Erie Times is responsible for he cleverest bit of satire of the year. Here it Is: "It is an outrage that Baumelster should bo held for the debts Incurred by the wobbly Interstate League, since It is dur to his effort alone that the organization was built up and attained its onetime prosperity. And if he is obliged to submit to this treatment for the I settlment of the present tangled situation, he will h-xve a general sympathy in his dilemma Eaumclster has always been the guiding hand behind the Interstate, He has been the father of the orgnnlzatioi. and the nttitude of the ouicr teams in tinassociation is ungrateful and unsportsmanlike, to say the least." N'ow, that is what we call cruel kid- ling. Poor Beau, to have even his home papers rubbing it in.—Bradford Star. The Star dope artist should be more specific. If Mr. Baumeister has always been the guiding hand of the Association which Is now "wobbly," who Is the wobblelte? Who wlbbled the wobble? The wibble, or Mr. Baumeister, who by ugroelng to transact the entire business of the Interstate for *400 per year. Including a statemeni of the club standings and batting averages every two weeks, had hitnsU* elected president-secretary-treasurer of the league? Did he have too much power or not enough? Who wlbbled the wobble In the Interstate? has elements of unlntelli and lncomprehensibleness Ir. ibout the same proportions as "Who struck Billy Patterson?", unless it Is laid at the door of a presldent-secretary-treasurer.Referring to the efforts being made <y the Erie magnates get out of the Interstate the Krie Dispatch <ays: j "A meeting- of the Interstate League will be held tomorrow at the Hotel lronton, In Oil City.

If Oil City and Franklin, to say nothing of Punxsutawney and DuHols, do not get berths In the proposed Interstate League these towns may be considered by the West Penn, as It Is figured that »vith, Fairmont, Cumberland, Clarksburg and Connellsvllle, Somerset or Scott - dale In the south, and Butler, Franklin, Oil City and one other city In the north, one of the greatest minor leagues ever organized In this part I of the country would be the result." Cortelyou Has Not Intimated Ills Alleg-ed Intention of Iteslgn- Ing From Cabinet. Building OwikhI and Occupied by Henry B. Temple and Sous Destroyed Today. By United Press. WASHINGTON. D. C.. Jan. 15. — Secretary Loeb announced this morning that there is no truth In the report that Secretary of the Treasury George B. Cortelyou had resigned. Loeb said that Cortelyou had not even given the slightest intimation that he contemplated such a course. The return of this play Is looked forward to with a great deal of pleasure by all theatergoers and the ©vent will prove a movt Interesting one. The biggest success of last season's theatrical offerings will be seen at the Jefferson Theater Friday evening in Henry B. Harris' fine production of the great American play, "The Lion and the Mouse," and the mere announcement of Its return should be sufficient to crowd the house, as oui theatergoers know the drama dealwith the widely discussed subject of the hour in American politics. Charles Klein in "The Lion and the Mouse" has utilized a phu.«o of national life which has never before been used for stage treatment f»nd which proves of intense interest as a result. He has taken one of ihe money kings of the country, a type of the financiers who manipulate the destinies of the'nation and made him one of the central figures of the plot.

Special to The Spirit, BROOKVILLE, Jan. 15.—The regular January sessions of criminal court has been making but slow progress, the time of the court being taken up with the trial of the case of the Commonwealth versus Lairil Blose, charged with assault and with Intent to ravish, the charge growing out of a return of J. M. Means, constable. A large number of witnesses were heard on either side and the case grew exceedingly tiresome to the spectators. Charles Corbet, Esq., appeared for the defendant and the latter h father, Q. A. Hlose, Esq., whs associated with him. William Falrman, Esq., conducted the prosecution for the District Attorney. The jury In the case of the Commonwealth vs. Harry Williams, charged with larceny, which case was tried Monday afternon, reported Tuesday morning with a verdict of "not gull'ty." This case grew out of the alleged finding of a pocketbook, beonglng to Thomaa Jonea, by the defendant, and his refusal to give over the property on request, the trouble occurring In a West End, Punxsutawney, pool room. Cameron Wlthero, of Rose Township. has been appointed a permanent Ipstave, having charge of the court room, and is acting In that capacity this week. The service rendered to he court at past sessions has not been >f the best, through lack of knowledge of the court's needs by newly lppointed tipstaves, and Mr. WltheroV appointment is expected 'to obviate this difficulty.

Al- ■o. sic semper tyrannis! At last the patient and enthusiastic hunters of Jefferson, Indiana and Clearfield counties, who have been following with bated breath the efforts of their literary and scientific brethren to solve, through the columns of this paper, the problems, "Who killed the last pantner in these parts? What was the color or its hair, I and the length of its whiskers? as well Js to settle various and diverse oth- I er knotty and beclouded points in local hunting lore, ars to have their [ dearest wishes gratified. And who among the living nlmrods of this neck o' the woods Is so well qualified to "put the cleaner" on wild beast stories as our esteemed Big Run correspondent, 'Squire Q. •S. Reams, author of the following letter. "In regard to J. C. Clark, of,Sagamore, awarding the honor tor killing the last panther to J. McCune. year 1 887, would say that he Is entitled to that honor, but he did not quote me correctly. I said: " 'I believe that since tho Hugh Kelly adventure, panthers have been here, but none killed.' 1 now add that I believe there are some In this >art of the State yet. By 'this part of the State' 1 mean Central Pennsylvania.James E. Brewer, the eminent J ustodlan of the Punxsutawney | amp in Clearfield County, tells mo hat about four or five years ago he neard what he verily believes was a panther and about the same season a. number of Punxsutawney campers heard an unmistakable panther howl or scream, north of camp, one night The same fall a panther and two cub vere seen by reliable parties in th< vicinity of the old Nieper watering 'rough on the pike in Boon Township, Clearfield County. Only last fall Ezra C. Gourley, of Frostburg, kvhile hunting- up in Potter County, railed a panther that had killed several sheep belonging to farmers of hat section. Now as to the color and whiskers <f the panther Kelly killed, I can ay that the late W. S. Smyers, of his place, had one of the whiskers vhich, I suppose, is still in the amily. it was shaped like a darling needle, hut was as long as a nitting needle. Tin- panther's hair as a tawny kaki color, light along he belly, hut no spots or rings." Hunters and recoun'eurs are canioned that we are from Missouri, nd that panther stories will not be ccepted unless length, weight, color nd length of parts are given, because n the case of a panther story these re as necessary aa to state the ength and number of prongs on the 10ms of a buck deer that is shot. Jack Long's panther that Dr. Mcknight tells about was ten feet and on inches long. As to wild cats there was a grea do In Paradise about a £ear ago the report got out that a bo; iad killed one In that section. H nought the pelt to me to be proba ed, but I soon discovered that it wn >nly a large "wild tame" cat an. herefore paid no bounty on it. There is a general misunderstand :ng In regard to the name of certaii places that have figured In th hunting stories recently appearing U print and, having beet personally acquainted with many of the early set tiers and hunters of Clearfield Coun ty, I may be doing a service by im parting some of the data 1 got fron them, at first hand. From the Shaffers, of DuBois, J he Ogdens, Carsons, Martin Luther and Frederick Zeigler, all now deceased.
