A Problem for the Collector.

EDITOR SENTINEL: Will you please inform me if there is not some way to compel your Tax Collector to return the receipted tax bills after they have been paid. I have already written a number of times in regard to it, but he pays no attention whatever to it. There seems to

be a general complaint in regard to the careless manner in which this official transacts his business.

A TAX PAYER.

Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 27, '93.

BRICK! BRICK!! BRICK!!!--Orders for brick left at Thorn's hardware and furniture store or at Glenn Cottage, 8th St. and Haven Ave., will receive prompt attention; or with Abel D. Scull, contractor and builder, Thistle Cottage, Central avenue, above Seventh St. 5-11 I am prepared to furnish a first-class red brick guaranteed to withstand the frost or climatic changes, which has no superior in the market at the present time for use in paving. Not only are they a superior article, but the cost is much less than those of other brands now in use in our town. YOUNGS CORSON.

HOUNDED BY DETECTIVES.

Walter Lee's Brave Battle to Lead a Better Life Frustrated by Detectives. Among the prisoners now awaiting trial by the court of Atlantic county are two young men from Philadelphia--Walter Lee and Harry Murray--who were arrested by Detectives Tate and Ulrich of that city, charged with stealing a diamond pin from Robert Vollrath at Egg Harbor on September 18th. Lee, who was released on furnishing $1000 bail, tells an interesting story of his career during a period of over two years past, which he described as a constant effort to live honestly while hounded and pointed out as a crook. It was on July 5, 1891, Lee says, that he was released from Cherry Hill after

serving a term for burglary. He had learned the trade of shoemaking during

his imprisonment, and determined to lead an honest life, telling several of the Philadelphia detectives of this decision and receiving words of encouragement from them when his time expired. Through the kindness of some friends Lee secured a letter of introduction to Dr. Chase, of the Norristown State Insane Asylum, of Pennsylvania, and after waiting a few weeks was employed as an attendant. After working two weeks in the hospital under his own name his face was recognized by a patient, who spread the report that Lee was a professional burglar. This rumor

reached the steward's ears and Lee's discharge followed, much to his dis-

couragement. Returning home, he answered an advertisement asking for shoemakers to work in a Lebanon, Pa., factory, together with another ex-crook named John Blake. Lee says the two went to Lebanon on a Thursday night in March of last year, taking board at the Exchange Hotel, and beginning work next day in the factory. On the next evening, Friday, there occurred a robbery in the Brill car works, West Philadelphia, where the watchman was bound and gagged and the safe blown. A few days later, while the two men were at work, Lee says that Detectives Bond, Murray and Tate appeared at their hotel and began questioning Proprietor Tobias and others concerning the movements of the pair, informing him that a robbery had been committed and that they thought they were after the right party. After learning that the two men were in Lebanon on the night of the burglary, the detectives left without making an arrest. The result of their accusation, however, was that Lee and his comrade found themselves again ostracised as ex-convicts by all their associates and fellow-workmen, and were compelled to give up their positions. Blake, as a result, went back to old associations and is now serving a term for robbery. Lee says he had meantime married, and despite repeated prosecutions was unwilling to return to his old pursuits. Fearing the scorn that followed him in any industrial occupation, he went to Gloucester, where he worked for a bookmaker fourteen months, handling as

high as $800 in one day. When the country fair season opened he began business with various games of chance, traveling from one show to another with the purpose of making enough money in this way to open a cigar store. Of the robbery of the pin near the Egg Harbor Fair Lee claims to be innocent, and says that Murray, who is still

in prison at May's Landing in default of bail, can prove an alibi by twenty reputable witnesses in Philadelphia.

Lee says that Tate and Ulrich arrested him only on suspicion, knowing that he had been in Egg Harbor on the day that Vollrath says the pin was snatched from him by one of a crowd of young men on the rear platform of a train about to start for Philadelphia. Lee says he was not picked out from among other prisoners by his accuser but identified separately with some hesitation.

At the time of his arrest he says he reproached the detectives for the man-

ner in which he had been hounded, declaring there was no protection for a man who had once gone astray, and declared he would give publicity to his treatment. Lee declares that the officers replied: "If you put anything in the papers we won't let you live in Philadelphia. We'll pick you up whenever we see you." Lee declares he will have no difficulty in proving that he did not board the returning train from Egg Harbor until the last minute, and then was prevented by the brakeman from getting on the rear platform.

Victimized Liverymen.

Early Friday morning a young man, name unknown, hired a horse and buggy of Liveryman Albert Dows, of Clayton.

The young man drove to Glassboro, where he sold the harness and stabled

the animal. Later he hired another team from the stable of Samuel Hig-

gins, of Glassboro, and drove to Williamstown. Laving the horse in a stable he again hired a team from the livery of George T. Caruthers. About two hours after he had left Williamstown Liveryman Higgins, of Glassboro, called at the stable of Caruthers and

asked if he had a horse and buggy bearing certain descriptions. A search proved that he had. Relating the story of the young man's doings, Caruthers'

suspicions were at once aroused and he started in hot pursuit after the young man. He was tracked to May's Land-

ing, where all trail was lost.

Let the Borough Marshal Look After Your Property During the Winter Months. As there is no officer on duty during the winter months it would be well for those who have property to have it looked after. Houses have been forcibly entered, window panes broken and more or less damage has been done to property by mischievous persons. This may be avoided by placing your property in care of HARRY L. CONVER, Borough Marshal. P. O. Box 81.
