Detter man mey uo outerF. H. Kay.ProUnblc BlacKimiillng Scheme-A profound sensation was created on the streets this morning by the arrest of Mr.John Kosebraugh, the popular young druggist, on a charge of bastardy, preferred by one Etta Swick. The warrant was served j by Constable Sam Bell, and Mr. Kosebraugh immediately went before ’Squire Bane and had his preliminary hearing which resulted in his being required to give bond in the sum of 300 for his appearance before the Common Pleas Court. The case | ! bears every appearance of being a blackmailing scheme of the worst character. The girl, Etta Swick, bears a very bad reputation, and on the witness stand this morning she acknowledged having been intimate with several other young men, both immediately before and after the time she claims she was debauched by Mr. Kosebraugh. Mr. Kosebraugh is a young man who has always been prominent for his integrity and strict business habits, and when he denied ever having been intimate with the woman, everv one who knows him believed that he spoke the truth. Hon. Waldo Tajlor is conducting the case for Mr. Rosebrough, and the Swick woman is represented by Mr. T. G. Thornton, in whose family she has been a domestic. This girl is the same one who is reported to have recently forced a young man to resign his position and “skip” because he refused | Tnbu to pay her money, to “settle” this same case. We hope and believe that Mr. Kosebraugh will be able to fully exhonor-ate himself at the proper time from the charge which has been brought against hi in.We are informed that the Swick woman is little better than a common prostitute, and that it can be proven that her action in bringing this suit is but a scheme to extort money.
