He was then marched to the Fitzgibbon drug store and before a crowd of men and wom- en was made to kiss the American | flag and pledge his allegiance to this country. He was then turned loose without any severe punishment. The proGerman has been working between here and Hazelton for some time and while in Braddock said he “would not fight for this country” and that he “don’t want to go back to Germany until the war was over.” Another incident which occurred af- ter the parade was the burning of two pictures, one of the kaiser and the other of the two Bismarcks which were procured from a certain resi- dent here. ‘After the pictures were byrned the frame which contained the two Bismarcks was returned to the owner with a picture of Presi- dept Wilson in it.
