Constable Ober came to Johnstown and learning of the whereabouts of the I prisoner, drove to Armagh, where Haines was hauled, out of bed, handcuffed and taken to Johnstown. He occupied a cell at the police station for several hours before being taken to Somerset county. Haines worked for a family named Heinmeyer, in Shade township, Somerset county, near the town of Hooversville. where, five weeks ag he most brutally assaulted the seven-vear-old daughter of Mr.

and Mrs. Heinmeyer, after which he left for parts unknown. The charge was made against Haines before tbe Justice of the Peace in Hooversville soon after he left, and Constable Ober has been out on several chases for him since then. Three weeks ago Haines began work as a farm hand for a man named Hoi-sopple, near Armagh.

It is Thought No Hifficidty Will JBe Experienced in Securing Bight of Way Through Town. On last Saturday was consummated in this place a deal which means more for the development of Indiana county than anything which has happened for montns. it was the merging of tbe In diana street Kaiiway Company and the Indiana Blairsville Intersection Street Railway com pan v. In April of 1902 a charter for the former company was taken out by John a. scott, u.

Tomb. M. u. Watson. J.

Wood Clark, Griffith Ellis, Henry Man, Walter Arms, James N.Stewart, D. L. Moorhead and Walter H. Jack son. At the same time they filed papers for a number of extensions to their original or charter line which extended from Ernest to a point on South Sixth street in Indiania.

Shortly thereafter Messrs J. N. Langham, W. F. Elkin, A.

F. Cooper, W. F. Wettling and D. E.

Thompson were granted a charter fur the Indiana Blairsville Intersection Street Railway Company. Their chartered line from Blairsville to Indiana covered much of tbe same route which was covered by the extensions of the other company. This latter company acquired some valuable concessiors about Blairsville, while tbe Indiana company had tbe cream of the streets of Indiana. There was a chance for some expensive litigation about the rights of the two companies over that portion of the routes which each claimed, and there was a difficulty over securing from town conacil franchises over the streets of Indiana, because the city fathers were averse to granting the franchise to either company until tbe matters in dispute between them were adjusted. This merger will wipe out all th'e trouble on this score and it is thought there will be no difficulty in securing from councils tbe franchise over tbe streets of town.

There is a very healthy public sentiment in this place in favor of granting the street railway people the franchise asked, because it is recognized by all, especially the business interests, that much valuable trade which ought to be coming to Indiana from Ernest and CreeKside on the north and some towns to the south is being deflected elsewhere because of the lack of transportation facilities, such as the street railway will afford. iTbere has as yet been no formal reorganization of the merged compan-jesimt it is said that the construction of the road will "be undertaken as soon as it can be arranged. Last summer a survey of the route between Blairsville and Indiana was made under the anspices of the Indiana Blairsville Intersection Street Railway company. It is thought the name to be adopted by the merged interests will be "Indiana Street Railway Company." Ticions Horse Spoils a Face.

IRS. BRENDLINGER KILLS A RIVAL Her Husband Also Wounded, But Not Seriously The Wife Charges Him With Unfaithfulness. West Wheat field township is considerably stirred up over a tragedy which occurred at Wilmerding last Saturday night, because two of the principals in the unsavory affair were raised in that community and have many relatives there. Jealous of another woman with whom she believed her husband to be on terms of too great intimacy, Mrs. Minnie Brendiinger on Saturday night shot and wounded her husband.

Hugh Brendiinger, and then killed Mrs. Laura Be bright. The Bhooting was the result of jealousy Mrs. Brendlioger having met her hnsband and Mrs. Rubright walking together on the street.

The BrendlingerB and Rubrights are neighbors. The families have been acquainted for a number of years, bat not intimately. Mrs. Brendiinger, who did the shooting, is the wife of Hugh Brendiinger, a car inspector at the Pennsylvania railroad shops at Pitcairn, where he has been employed for about nine years. The dead woman was the wife of Frank Rubright, a car builder in the Pennsylvania railroad shops in the same town.

Jim. Brendtinirer's Crime. The shooting occurred about o'clock Pedestrians on the avenue saw a man and woman walking rapidly toward the viaduct and saw a woman hurrying after them. Before they could understand the situation tbe woman following said something to the man and fired twice. The first woman was Mrs.

Rubright, and with her was Brendiinger. The woman following was Brendlinger's wife. The first sbot struck Brendiinger inthe left leg. Tbe second entered Mrs. Rub-right's head, back of the left ear, passing through the base of the brain and coming out in her mouth.

She sank to the ground and died almost in--stantly. The shooting created considerable excitement, as the street contained a Saturday night crowd of shoppers. Chiet of Police Davenport placed Mrs. Brendiinger under arrest. 5 tie lost complete control of herself and was hysterical.

Brendiinger was also arrested, and both were takpa to the Wilmerding lockup, where fiey received medical attention. The Brendlingers went to Pitcairn from near Garfield, this county, about nine years ago They have been married 17 years, and have two boys. Mrs. Brendlingar, whose maiden name was Liohteufels, comes of a prominent family. Three of her brothers are employes of the Pennsylvania railroad at Pitcairn.

They are Joseph rate clerk, a member of the school board and formerly a school teacher; Philip assistant foreman in the freight shops, and a membei of the borough council, and John F. Lichtenfels, a car inspector. The three Lichtenfels were seen at the home of their sister, Mrs. Brendiinger Sunday night. They talked freely of the shooting.

Their story is substantially as follows For about three years Mrs. Brendiinger has suspected her husband of paying attention to otber women. She first became suspicious when she found a letter torn in fragments. This letter she put together and ascertained that her husband had written it to a young woman in Gettysburg. Later she accused him of paying attention to other women, but he stoutly denied it.

Some weeks ago she was told that her husband often visited the home of Mrs. Rubright during the day, and she engaged Detective Roger O'Mara to follow him, with a view of confronting him with the truth if he were in the wrong, and then telling him if he did not mend his ways she would institute divorce proceedings. Detective O'Mara was working on the case when the shooting occurred. Worried Herself Joseph 3. Lichtenfels said his sister had worried herself sick over the alleged conduct of her husband, and that she would not go to bed in the evenings until he returned home, often at 1 and 2 o'clock in the morning.

He said his sister was taken sick two weeks ago from nervousness, and that a physician had attended her since Juhn F. Lichtenfels, who lives on the serend Soot of the Brendiinger house, said that on Saturday evening Thnrman, the eldest son of the Brendlingers, came home and informed his mother that be had seen his, father and Mrs. Rubright get on a 'train a short time before. The mother left the house saing that she intended to follow her husband, and see if hf really was in company with Mrs. Rubright.

She went to Wilmerding on a steet car. Mrs. Brendiinger obtained a revolver -from her brother's room 'on the second floor of her home. To Chief of Police Davenport, Brendiinger said he had met the woman by chance, and knowing her, accompanied her along Airbrake avenue. Mr.

Rabright told the chief that he and his wife had always lived happily, and that he cannot explain the situation. He said he was positive i to Wilbur P. Graff who acted for tbe owners of the plant. It is said the new company has been capitalized at half a million dollars, and will be known as the McGuire Opalite Tile Brick Company. A large sum of money will be expended in fitting up the plant, and, it is said, 300 men will be given employment.

David Pugh, formerly foreman for the Hamilton glass works at Blairsville, will be employed in a similar capacity in the new concern. It is also reported that the Blairsville brick works has been sold to a new company who will operate on a large scale. RECENT DEATHS. Peter Leasare. Mr.
