Oct. 1L Last evening about 6 o'clock the postofflce and store belonging to John Crouse, at Castle, four miles northwest of this city, was "held up" and robbed by two masked desperadoes: 'The store was filled with farmers at the time. The store Is an assembling point at night for the neighboring farmers. Last night there were four or Ave men In the store, caving the Nation, a3 usual, when two men rode up on horses, tied thelranlmals and entered the store. Both wore long, flowing false beards, . which covered their faces, and the Inmates had hardly made a mental note of these facts when they were startled to see each of the Intruders produce a shining revolver and heard a gruff demand to cold up their hands. Juvery hand In the room went up without a moment's hesitation and remained so while one of the men went through their dothe3. Three watches, la money and a number of postage stamps were secured. The highwaymen then said they hoped the citizens had enJoyed the visit, mounted their steeds and disappeared, leaving the little group of farmers completely "dod-gasted," as ono put it. After they had recovered from their astonishment they sent a party to this city after the officers. During the past six months a number of robberies have been reported from this section, but none so bold as this. Houses have been robbed and peo"ple "held up" and robbed, all of which has been thought to be the work of tramps, but It Is now believed to have been the work of come one well acquainted In that section or tha county.

Ind., Oct. lb-Friends cf Charles W. Rlcketts have come forward frcn Paris and elsewhere to-day to secure his release and all testify to his good reputation. He moved in the best society la Paris and hs relatives In Charleston warrant foe SW, given to Rlcketts In payment for bchool supplies, was raised to ZZy). i also mixed in the affair to-day by tie disclosure that he had received a check from Rlcketts for S-TKwiieh was dishonored because Rlcketts had no money In the bank. Boatman says Rlcketts gave him the tT-0 for his services in delivering the supplies to the schoolhouses In his towntTlp. To-night it is learned that there probably will te other disclosures which will involve one or more persons not now raced. Ricketts was In tho act of selllr.T the raised warrant at $G0 discount rvhen arrested. Boatman refuses to flic information against hm. llnox County's Commercial Clnys. Vincennes Commercial. State Geologist Dlatchley Is now in tho city making an investigation of the commercial clays of Knox county. Professor L'latchky says: Klre clay and shale underlie all the eastern part of Knox county, and are of as good quality as any to be found in the otate. The vetn of Are clay txntath the vein of coal which is being mined nt Prospect hill Is of extraordinary thickness. Usually the fire clay is from three to six feet In thickness while this vein ! eighteen feet and of superior quality. The shale above the ccal is also of excellent quality and is fully twenty feet thick. Your supply of lire clay and shale seems to be inexhaustible. "Your facilities for transportation are of the best, having direct connection with Cincinnati, t. Louis, Chicago and all intervening cities, which will, in a few years, ba using millions of vitrlfl?d brick for ravin:? purposes. Experience has proven that this is the cheapest and most durable pavinT material known. . "I believe that the manufacturing of articles from clay will become one of the leading industries cf Indiana within the next ten years. Especially will this be true of the western and southwestern parts of the State, -where the coal measures exIzt, for the coal measures of the State are pre-eminently Its clay measures. Every ream of ccal Is normally underlaid with a ted of f.re clay and above the coal there are almost always beds of shale. These cczl shales, a few years ago, were thought to te worthless, but experiment has proved that they are excellently adapted to the rr.-.klnsr of paving brick and roollng tile, end when mixed with the lire clay they rr.al;e excellent sewer pipes In fact, the ccal shales furnish the basis of tho great paving brick Industry of Ohio, where forty-four factories turned out 2D2,C,CO) trick in 1831. Eighty per cent, cf these vere made of the coal shales, which, ten years ago, wero wholly unused. During the same year thirty-flve sewer pipe factories in OhI were using th shales and clavs In the manufacture of their product. In "Indiana there are, at the present time, ro far as I can learn, but three paving brlclt and two sewer pipe factories. These, probably, oj not furnish one-tenth of the supply of these articles used in the State. Capitalists who desire to manufacture lhee products in Indiana will tlnd no need in heUate on account of a supposed lack Cl raw material. The shales and ilro clays
of the coal measures In this State are Just as abundant, and In my opinion will prove of as good quality for producing paving trick and sewer pipe as those of Ohio." Struck a Slx-IIundred-Ilnrrel Oiler. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. HARTFORD CITY, Ind., Oct. 1L The oil well owned by Talt & McDonald, north of this city, on the George Musseter farm, has created no end of excitement here.

THE MCH COL. NORTH
AX EXCJI.ISII M1I.LIO.YAIRK TTHO DID SOT INHERIT HIS WEALTH. The Dally Life of the Nltrnte King, Ilia Recreations and Love of Sport His Ostentl Scheme. London Letter in New York Tribune. Colonel North, the nitrate king, Is an Knglish representative of what is a familiar typo in America the self-made millionaire. He was born in Leeds, the town where he recently contested the re-election of Mr. Herbert Gladstone to Parliament, and, without having the advantages of a thorough education, he received some training as surveyor and engineer. He sailed for South America in his early youth with a reserve capital of perhaps 20 in his pocket Landing in Valparaiso he speedily made use of his practical knowledge as an engineer and, subsequently, secured employment on the nitrate coast, where he surveyed some of the salt beds which had been recently discovered. The Peruvian government, by purchasing the nitrate lands and -works and establishing the business as a state monopoly, brought on the disastrous war with Chile. When the struggle ended in the negotiation of the treaty - of Ancun the Bolivian coast and the nitrate provinces of Peru were Chilian conquests. This was the young English engineer's1 opportunity. He had formed an accurate estimate of the mineral wealth of the coast deserts of Tarapaca and had sufficient influence to secure the adoption by " the Chilian government of a policy which promoted the immediate development of the industry. - - - Peru had begun by compelling the producers to sell their nitrates at a fixed price to the government, which could then export them without competition at its own figures. This arbitrary' policy did not prove to be remunerative, and the- purchase of all the nitrate deposits and works by the state was decreed, bonds being issued in payment for them. Victorious Chile was in a position to maintain this state monopoly, but. acting upon the advice of Colonel North, It wisely decided to open the industry to free competition and to content itself with receiving an export duty on the nitrates, without attempting either to regulate the price br to restrict production. The English engineer was on the ground, and he understood better than anybody else the resources of the conquered provinces. He bgan at once to purchase at depreciated rates the Peruvian bonds which had been issued to the nitrate companies, and he also secured control of some of the nitrate railways. The provinces had passed from Peruvian rule and were under Chilian military administration. They were ruined communities, In which landholders and residents wero anxious to sell their Interests and claims for what they could get for them and then to retire from the country. Colonel North succeeded in forming companies with English capital for working one nitrate bed after another and for operating and extending the railway system. GOVERNMENT ENCOURAGEMENT. -The Chilian government encourage him lo persevere in the development of an industry which would yield a great revenue in export duties, and made no attempt to interfere with th rights and operations of his companies. Largely through his enterprise Iquique was converted Into a commercial center and the resources and the revenues of the nitrate provinces were developed. Having established an' enormous business and -massed a great fortune, the nitrate king returned to England to double and quadruple his wealth by controlling from London the nitrate market and by entering Into many successful specula-tlve enterprises in Africa and elsewhere. Colonel North's diily life is an interesting social study. He is in th prime of manhood, somewhere betweeen forty and fifty, but without a gray hair or any sign of increasing age. He is a man of medium stature, with a plumn face and auburn whiskers and hair. From Monday morning until Friday evening he devotes nis undivided attention to his business interests. An early train carries him into London and he returns to a late dinner in his country house. , From 9:30 until 6 he is accessible to nnv one who has business relations wih Jblnh. It would seem Impossible for any ono t6 transact business In such a hurly-burly of loud talk, handshaking and merriment, but these are the conditions under which the shrewd, farsighted millionaire makes investments, directs a hundred great enterprises and sustains the market values of the stocks with which he is identified.. His memory for details is good, and he Is rapid in forming Judgments and reaching decisions. Men who go to his office for mercantile cues or speculative tips retire with their labor unrewarded. He has quick perceptions, and knows when his visitor is seeking to entrap him In business or to draw Information out of him from motives of self-interest. Against Intruders of this class he is always on his guard. . . ... THE MILLIONAIRE'S HOLIDAY. From Friday night until Monday morning he remains at his country house at Elthant, near ChL?elhuret, in Kent, about ten mites from London. He is as fully engrossed In business affairs five days In the week as any bank clerk, although he works in his own "way and carries the responsibilities of vast commercial enterprises with a light heart. . But at the end of the week he seeks to obtain real enjoyment from the possession of vast wealth, and on Sunday he opens his house to twenty-five or thirty guests and spends the day in taking them over bis princely estate. It Is on that day that he reveals himself as a Yorkshire workman, who has amassed a great fortune without becoming ashamed of his humlble origin. He has had a busy week and ho needs a day of recreation: and he wishes to share with his friends the enjoyment of seeing his house, pictures. 1 statuary, conservatories, horses, cattle, dogs, swine and pheasants. So he starts by inaklne the rounds cf the long. .rambling brick country house, with its magnificent floors, splendid tapestries, costly marbles and innumerable works of art. An entrance armor-hall leads into a wide statuary corridor, and further on there is an immense art gallery, with a colonnade of thirteen columns opening Into another statuary room. Above the colonnade is a balcony where the band Is stationed when these great halls are converted into ballrooms. The pictures are both old and .modem, with a few h'jge canvases of the Spanish school and many good English works. The whole house is stocked wtth curiosities from Peru, Egypt and Africa, with trophies of the owner's triumphs on the turf and in coursing, and with costly rugs, tarestrles. plate and potteries. The stables are almost as sumptuous as the house, ant have perhaps the most complete appointments which are to be seen in England. Colonel North is an enthusiastic turfman, but seldom sees his horses run at races. His business Is eo engrossing that he cannot allow himself the luxury of wltnesinsr a vlc-tory for his colors such as occurred on Saturday at Manchester: but he loves his horses, and nothing flelights him more than to make the rounds of the stalls wfth visitors and to have the blankets taken off Dunthorpe, Penzance and all his famou racing:, breeding and carriage horses. Ha loiters invariably in the paUock where the foals are scampering about and looks them over affectionately. Then he has his prize shorthorn cattle brought out one by one for inspection: and there is no better stock In England. Then the pack of greyhounds Is produced, -with Fullerton. the most famous courser in the United Kingdom, in the lead. That great dog, which has carried off the prizes in racing three years in succession, is now seven years old. and Is a marvel of intelligence and sped. Then follows a visit to the dairy stables and to the swine pens, where the best stock alone is kept; and the Colonel is at lasr re.idy to lead the way Into the woods, where the young pheasants are already coming on In large broods. London Is only ten miles away, but here ?s a wild thicket of grat expanse where the owner of the estate has his shooting whenever he wants it. THE GREAT OSTEND PROJECT. Almost as quickly as he had mounted the box and turned the horses Colonel North recently decided to enter into his Ostend project. That popular resort, the Brighton of the continent, has lacked adequate hotel accommodations and facilities for sport. Colonei North has agreed to invest $i.0X000 tn converting it Into the sporting capital of Europe. Back of the town there is now a race course, with a cemetery near by. and flanking both a long stretch of neglected sand dunes fronting upon the sea. For Jl.500.fl00. which Is to be paid by Colonel North, the Belgian Parliament lies granted a concession or charter, which will enable him to carry out this rcheme. and King Leopold has added to the bearh section a portion of h!s own estate. When the government has leveled the dunes and built up an embankment around the cemetery to conceal it from view, Colcwel North will expend

Steamship Alene Fired on by a Spanish Gunboat. HALIFAX. N. S., Oct 11. The mall steamer from Kingston, Jamaica, to-night, brings an account of an American citizen, who was a passenger on board the steamship Alene, of the Atlas line, from New York to Kingston, Jamaica. He says the Alene was fired on by a Spanish gunboat while passing tho eastern end of Cuba, Sept. 2t. The American says, in part: "The gunboat was a mile from the island when first seen, evidently lying in wait for vessels intending to land with ammunition for the revolutionists. The Alene kept on her regular course, passing abreast of the gunboat, two miles distant. When slightly south of Cape Maysl lighthouse, the report of a cannon was heard and a cloud of smoke was seen issuing from the port bow of the gunboat. Captain Seiders, thinking that It was nothing more than gun practice, kept his course. After an interval of ten minutes a second puff f smoke was seen, followed by another report of the gun. The captain then knew It could not be practice, and the Alene was at once put about and came to a full stop. Instantly on seeing the Alene heave to, the gunboat started at half speed, heading directly for the merchantman. As she advanced she liied a third shot This was at least ten minutes after the Alene had swung around and was, apparently, without the slightest reason, for Captain Seiders was prompt in observing the international regulations of the merchant marine, inquiring if the Spaniard wanted to communicate or come on board. Without replying or manifesting the slightest intention of recognizing the signals, the gunboat continued Fteaming slowly on until a little over a mile away, then, turning her bow to the starboard, he mado for the nearest headland, increasing to full speed, evidently disinclined to come nearer or give any explanation of her action."

D. beat Master Dennis, of Chicago; Miller's Rabble, of Oxford, Kan., beat Long Odds, of Hawarden, la.. In the final.

D., beat Donald, of Connecticut; Kirk Glen, of Oxford, Kan., ran a bye, Emln Pasha being withdrawn sick. In tho semi-finals, Sunol beat Dakota; Kirk Glen beat Ragnarock.. It was not necessary to run a final course for this stake, as Sunol and Raernarock belong to the. same owner, D. O. Milter, of Oxford, Kan. There was a good deal of betting, especially on the Waterloo cup coarse, and the Englishmen won a nice sum by backing Gilkirk. BRAVE CALIFORNIA WOMAN. Though AVonnded in tho Arm, She Fonght Oft Two "Would-lle Robbers. SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 11. A fine display of grit and tho liberal use of a pistol probably saved the life of Mrs. Leva Marshall, operator at the Baden, for the Southern Pacific. Iate last night C. I Herbert, the office manager, went away, leaving Mrs. Marshall in charge. About fifteen minutes later Mrs. Marshall was startled by some one kicking on the door. She w as somewhat alarmed at the violence displayed, and, putting a pistol In her pocket, went toward the door to open it. but before she reached it the door was kicked in and a tall, tiark complexicned man wearing a mask entered and demanded money, leaving a companion outside. Mrs. Marshall drew her revolver for use, but the maked man was too Quick for her and fired at her heart, missing- it by a few inches, the ball entering her left arm at the elbow. Mrs. Marshall then began to use her revolver, emptying it at the fleeing robbers. She waited for some time, thinking that the shots would be heard, but no assistance comivK, Mrs. Marshall telegraphed to Train Dispatcher Walters, In this city, who immediately sent a special car to bring her to San Francisco for treatment.

FORTUNES IN JEWELS
AMERICAN WOMEN TI1C GREATEST COLLECTORS IX THE WORLD. New York Society Leaders the Price . of Whose Gems Would Iluild Twenty Battleships. New York Exchange. "If the occasion ever arises for the new American ' women to show true public spirit, frcm the sale of their jewels alone they could build and equip twenty of the biggest battle ships that ever destroyed commerce on th high seas. Yon have heard how much a battle ship corta? Well, multiply that by twenty and you will reach the nearest estimate I can make of the value of the precious stones owned In our States." This from a member of a most prominent firm of New York jewelers, and "when the reporter stared and gasped, at the result of the sum In multiplication, he only laughed and said he had drawn it very mild, "for Americans are the most lavish purchasers of diamonds and pearls alone of any women in the world. The taste for diamonds grows with Indulgence; the more a woman has the more she wants, until it becomes as In the case of one of our customers, who will spend a morning over our counters, shopping for tiaras, as coolly as if she was matching ribbons. She has found, llko pretty Mrs. Yerkes, of Chicago, that the way to be famous for her jewels is to buy only of a certain kind. t "It was Mrs. Yerkes who first bought yellow diamonds, as Mrs. Astor had the best that could be done in a collection of white stones, and the Chicago lady's casket is reckoned as worth close onto $300.000. x Her necklace is long enough to bo worn as a band to outline the top of a decollette evening bodice, cut out over the shoulders court fashion, and sometimes she does away entirely with tho right sleeve of an evening waist, substituting an epaulette made all of diamonds, with strings of the gems hanging down to her elbow. Mrs. William Astor has really never cared for other Jewels than diamonds and only wears portions of her corbellle. on very stately occasions, even her hands at other times showing but her wedding ring and a little circlet, of not at all valuable pearls, given her long ago by her eldest son. He has added from time to time to his mother's collection that some day will go to his lovely wife. It now consists of twentytwo pieces made up of nearly, ten thousand almost flawless white diamonds, set variously in gold, silver and platinum, appraised at a round million. There are three diadems and a perfect crown, modeled from a circlet Josephine wore.' The five necklaces are all copies from antiques; one from a royal Russian ornament, showing twenty of its big stones pierced through the center, the most difficult feat for a lapidary to successfully accomplish. At balls. In her earlier days, Mrs. Astor often wore her dancing dress looped with sprays of these gems, and covered, as with a cuirass from throat to waist so huge were her' two stomachers, but as hostess she. wears only a few rings acd decorative brooches. THE BURMAH3 GEtM. The daughter-in-law of Mrs. Astor, sr., clasps her white neck with a throatlet of ruble?, and wears a wonderful little hair ornament of a sringl huge ruby in a circle of diamonds, the big red stone said to be the largest and finest ever taken from the Rurmah mints. The jeweler who at Intervals polishes its settings would,' he says, at any time give $25,000 for one half its size. Mrs. Jack Astor spends a great deal more money and enthusiasm on antique gold ornaments, collecting them for their, own beauty. Mrs. Twombly has a sincere American love for turquoise, her set rivaling that of Mrs. Arthur M. Dodge, whose watch, with all its complete works, is set into t.ivi hollow of a huge true blue, egg-shaped stone, mi mounded by pearls. Mrs. Langtry. years ago, made turquoise fashionable, when a certain royal person gave her a single necklace of them valued at 10,000. She afterwards broke up the ornament and sold It to defray the expenses of her first venture on the stage, and Mrs. Twombly bought It all but 7odr of the stones from a Bond-street jeweler, paying nearly the original price. Her American Jeweler then bought, at the sale of the royal French casket, a pair of bracelets, dating from the reign of Francis 1. took out the diamonds and topaz, with which they were spangled, and set in six great turjuoise. costing from $hX) to JS00. Mrs. Alva Vanderbilt has the best collection of pink pearls in tho States; in rings and necklaces. "They are as big as billiard balls, by Jove," quoted) one admiring young man, who saw Mrs. Vanderbilt wearing her great pearl necklace; the long strings looped up in a fringe about the front of her bodice, and her fine shoulders carrying, at the lowest estimate, $G0,000 worth of these products of the oyster. Her largest pearls, contrary to the fashion, she wears as ear screws; they are circled with a cord and true lovers knot of diamonds, each pearl alone worth four thousand round American' dollars. It is Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt who wears rings, as her hands are exceptionally pretty, and her necklaces are all big dog collars, one In alternating strings of pear:?, diamonds and opals six rows in a'U each worth the Income of three ordinarily prosperous business men. Mrs. Vanderbilt, wherever she goes, buys opals in the rough or polished and has them set In her fans, paper weights, smelling bottles, her purse and card cases until nearly a hatful have been disposed of. FAVORS STAR SAPPHIRES. Star sapphires are Mrs. Potter Palmer's favorite gems, along with aome of the largest blue sapphires known to dealers. Onr that she, wears as a pendant, oval-shaped and swinging in a diamond, circle, is the second in size to that adorning the state crown of England. Her jewel box would probably fetch several hundred thousand dollars, and Mrs. James Kernochan's emeralds alone would bring a much. l')Mv t l-Imprpfs of Rusia has a finer collection, for Mrs. Kernochan made her pick from the French crown jewt-ls. If you wish to gain seme idea of the passion our women have for jewels, let me tell you that at the great French sale one American linn alone bid in fifteen hundred thousand dollars' worth of ornaments. Within two days they had sold off every article, of course, at a rt ascable advance on the money invested. Numbers of the finest pieces went West, notably a necklace, said to have been the property of Marie de Medici. That was purcha J. for Miss Hannah Crocker, now Mrs. ,A!txandre. at the snug sum of $35,000. Mrs- lira Jley-Martln. who was there trying, ttival Mrs. Astor's collection, bought a f'd hundred thousand dollars' worth of ' jewel-. and later, into the l.(!d ct Mrs. George Gould, passed the ii'llia-i tfixcn pearl, set for her in a vicr.

"How did it happen?" echoed a half dozen voices the other day as a crowd of men gathered around a man who had been hidly hurt by a run away team. "No matter new how it happened," said a practical man, who had already begun to lift up the wourded man, "let us carry him into that drug store and call a physician. We can inquire about how it happened later on and prevent a like accident In future if possible" If the case -were not so serious it would b? laughable to listen to the thousand and one explanations about he "eult of the late city election, every one having a
theory, with this singular coincidence, the chlefest of sinners are the most Intent on Insisting that ths ether fellow dene' It. No matter now !.ow It nn ' pentd the paramount question of the boar I what we ure going 10 uo about it iu sufferer will recover with pro;rr treatment. Any city that can right up ro ued in two years after four years of Sullivanism cannot be permanently damaged by two years of Taggartism. Oar recuperative forces are wonderful. IVrhups the better way to get at it is to ouie-first wiiat v.e are not going to uo. in the first place, hereafter, when we irake a. fight along party lines we v ili put a Republican at the head of the ticket. A man who is a Republican ly s4x.is and in spots is not the man to had in a Republican campaign, lie may make a gcod controller cr a first-chus Mayor, but ho must get there on his personal merits a business man, on a business man's ticket, as all good "Mayors ought to. Mr. l) nny. though nominated as a Republlcm, n.aci his canvass as a business man and as cpposed to lawlessness. Not once was an apeal made to Republicans as uch. bene ie had a large democratic folio wmg rati was elected, and his administration was so far from being a partisan one that in less than a month party leaders were dissatisfied. Mr. Trusler, a model business man, ran as a Republican, and his unwtso friends everywhere magnined the importance of his election as beari- upon next year elections, thus driving" to a utu quite his equal as a busings man the thousand Denocrats who had voted tor Mr. Denny two years ago, while his Republican record drove from him a thousani Republicans who voted tho balance of the ticket, and about as many who either did. 1 not vote at all or voted the mtire Democratic ticket. It is safe, therefore, lo say' that we will not again head our ticket, with a man who Is not a Republican. tnd appeal to Republicans to rally to his nipport for the sake of the partv. Another thing we will not do: We will not t.tek on a mess of stuff about enforcing the law and. the like. That Is a cheap article and means' nothing. The Democrats can use :t as .well as we, as they did in the late campaign. The assurance of law enforcemnt unit tht HIta ia In th ivnnnnl rt
the ticket, not In the platform, and yet wo' relied more upon this plank In our platform than on any other, with not a iraa upon the ticket, from first to last, that ever had been conspicuous as an anti-saloon man. Not one of them, so far I know, had ever so .much as attended a singl meeting of the Good Citizens' League, n.uch less had taken any active part in its work. That card did not draw and never will; therefore In the future, if we are wise, we will never encumber, our State cr national or city platlorm with it, as th New York Republicans unwisely did a fewweeks ago. . Sensible good citizens do rot ask it. They not only do rot aek It, but they most emphatically protest ar.inst It. Their work Is independent' cf party and they will resent all attempts to make it subserve party ends. liven If the Democratic party shall make the repeal of th Nicholson law. for instance, a party Irue, as they certainly will, the Republican must not be stampeded Into tho folly of defending and sustaining that law. A class of weaklings who occasionally train with the league may clamor for it, but th wiser ones say: "No, hand off!" And the. Republicans roust say no, too. The personnel of the ticket, not tho words of th platform, will be looked to. While he is an insane politician who sneers at the Good CltLce-iaf League or effects to ignore It, we may atriy count on its being around at the next f lecttrn. The hundred thousand who so suddenly rprang up. nobody knew where from, it petitions to the late Legislature, are not dead nor dying, and we may as well trim our political sails accordingly, tut w must not put them or their crotchet into our Republican State, national or municipal platform. Hereafter ur '.tepubUram nominees must be ttepaollc-ins, tut they need not be men whose nabits and known views antagonize the Good Citizen movement. The woods are, full of men who are both good Republicans and who ar in sympathy with the central thought of this wonderful political force, and th Democrats will be wise enough m n.any counties to recognize its existence by their local nominations, no matter what th State platform may declare. Thi. then, is Mrhat the. Republicans are ro'i.x ;o do about It put only stalwart Repuolicans oa the ticket, both State and IocaL snd leavt . .the platform unincumbered by ride issu.-a of all sorts, leaving them to the Found discretion of the proper functionaries when they come to act, and most certainly w will not. In the future, mix local It tir.e;-9 with national politics and drive cit best business men to draw the party line In an election which can have no national significance whatever. I". L.

Th county authorities admitted to-day that they had discovered a plot to effect the escape of Harry Hayward, the condemned murderer of Catherine Ging. from the county Jail. Duplicate keys had been male in some way which fitted his coll door ani the outer door. Theio kys have been found by one of the sheriffs deputies, and when tried fitted the locks perfectly. The sheriff had kept the matter quiet and laid a plan to capture the conspirarors in the act. A bribe had been offered to one of his deputies, a fact whloh tho deputy promptly reported to Sheriff Holmberg. The publication of the facts will prevent the attempt, but arrests are likely to follow. MOTION FOR A NEW TRIAL In the II In .ha vr Case AVI II no 3Iadc at Danville To-Dny. The motion for a new. trial In the Illnshaw murder case at Danville will be made to-day. There was a consultation . of the attorneys interested in the case last nifht at the offic? of Duncan & Smith. Information received f rom Danvlllo says that It is not thought there that a new trial will be granted. The attorneys for the State say there Is little hope for a rehearing ct the case. The defense, in a motion, will probably take exceptions to some parts of Judge Hartley's instructions to the jury. There seems to be a belief that the de.'ense has other reasons for a new trial which will be prepsu-d. If a new trial l denied an appeal will be. taken to the Supreme Court. CITY NEWS NO " S.'
