MESSICK'S MISERY.

HU DlTorcad Wife Flees From the Court Boom With Her Offspring A Sensational Scene. About three months ago Samuel W. Messick was dizorced from Sarah E. Messick, and their child, a three-year-old girl, placed in the custody of Mra. Lucinda Ilockett, mother of Mrs. Messick. The next day after the divorce was granted Messick applied for a marriage license. but was compelled to wait one week on account of the decree freeing himself from bis first wife not having been . certified, ills marriage was followed shortly by that of his divorced wife, who became Mrs. Sarah E Sutton. A tew days ago Messick nled proceedingj to obtain possession of his child, setting forth that Mrs. Hockett was not the proper person to have the care of It. Judge Adams heard the evidence and took the matter under advisement until yesterday, when all of the parties appeared in Court. Before an nonncine his decision he intimated htwould give the child toits father, which seemed to act as a- sigDal to Mrs. Sutton, who grabbed the little girl and fled from the - Court room. Messick gave chase, with his former mother-in-law, Mrs. Hockett, close at his heels... At the foot of the stairway the -mother stopped with the child, and stood defiantly, until Mrs. Hockett came up and the latter ordered her to go on, at the same time saying to Messick: "We will pat her where you'll never see her again." A meiee took p.ace, which was repeated on the treet, Mrs. Sutton's friends aiding her in escaping. Messick finally went back into Court, a sad and dejected man, not in the best of humor over the way he had Deen cneatea out oi ine child's possession. The order of the Court was placed in the Sheriff's hands, with instructions to serve the same on Mrs. Sutton and obtain the child. Neither could be found, and the conclusion was reached late last night that the mother had tied from the city with her offspring. NEW DEPARTURE. "Women for tlie Hoard or School Commissioners. As the last Legislature passed an act making it lawful for women to be elected to the board of School Commissioners, and as elections will occur iu June in the first and eleventh districts, a movement is now on foot to make two of our most prominent ladies, members of that body. The ladies who are being brought forward by prominent citizens are Mrs. A. C. Harris and Mrs. llenay Uoburn; both are eminently qualified for the positions, biüg highly educated, cultured and having a practical knowledge of the wants of the schools. Rev. A. N. Hyde, pres ent member from the first district positively declines reelection, and it is not positively known whether Mr. Browning, member for the eleventh district will be a candidate or not; though it is understood that a number of his friends will urge his reelection. C. F. Darnell has also been spoken of as a candidate. We shall, however, have more to say on the subject hereafter. Political .TotM. The coming campaign promises to be one of warmth and very interesting. It is the general opinion among Republicans that the county convention should and will be held in July. The candidates who desire to make the race for sheriff, on the Republican ticket, are George Branham, J. W. Hess and Oliver Voorhis. This is a free country and the race for nominations and election is a free for all race, and by reference to our editorial col umns it will be seen that the columns of this paper are open for the political announcements of any candidate, regardless of his political affiliations, who desires to place himself before the people. The Republican County Central Committee met last Saturday, and decided to reorganize the committee by electing one committeeman from each voting precinct, on the second Saturday in June. This will greatly enlarge the committee, but perhaps there is wisdom in the move. The meeting was well attended, and considerable interest in the coming contest was manifest. The Democratic County Central Committee neia a session last Saturday, ana ap proved the call for a district convention to be held at Shelby ville, May 8, to nominate a candidate for Congress. Primaries for the election of delegates will be held in this city this evening. Lach ward is entitled to two delegates. W. E. English and W. F. A Bernhamer seem to be the two most prominent candidates. tn 0nPeray at home. Samples worth 55 0w IU yU free. Address Stinson A Co., Port land, Maine.

Robert Jenerson, one of our oldest and most respected colored citizens died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Lucy Robinson, at Oberlin, Ohio, last Tuesday,) aiier a lingering niness oi several months. He was threatened with an attack of typhoid fever while at his home in this city, and at the urgent request of his daughter and by the advice of his physicians and friends, he went to Oberlin, O., where it was hoped that he might again regain his heath; but he was soon confined to his bed after reaching Oberlin, and continued to grow weaker till the day of his death. Mr. Jefferson was born in Charleston, Jefferson county, Virginia, and at the time of his death was in his eightieth year. His life was quite remarkable under the circumstances, lie was born a slave and spent the best days of his life laboring for others, but his life's work shows what an industrious man with a strong will can accomplish. In his boyhood he was placed as an apprentice to a carpenter, and soon became a skillful workman at the trade. Soon after he had reached the age of 21, he was sold to parties in Mississippi, and was taken to that State, I He was not there long before he becran to negotiate with his master for the "purchase of his time." Finally this wasgraated him, and by working at his trade it was but a few years before he was able to purchase his freedom, for which he paid $2,674, and $1,500 for his wife. Mr. Jefferson sent his family north in 1851, for the purpose of educating his children, but he remained in the South until 1854, working at his trade. He accumulated considerable wealth while there, and came to this city in '54, where he has resided ever since. He acquired good property here, and continued to prosper, and his estate is valued at $25,000. Although Mr. Jefferson could neither read nor write, he had acquired a rich store of general information, and could converse intelligently on most any subject. There are good reasons for the belief that Mr. Jefferson was the son of Thomas Jefferson, third President of the United States, ana he himself fully shared in this belief. Below is published a paragraph of an interview with him by a journal reporter, April 1, 1879, in which the reasons for his - belief are detailed. Mr. Jefferson leaves two children, Mrs.

Lucy Robinson, wife of the late John Robinon, formerly a wealthy resident of St. Louis and Mrs. Patrick Smith, of Pana, Illinois, both of whom are well educated and highly respected ladies. His remains were brought to this city Thursday, and the funeral ceremonies were held Friday, ot 2 o'clock at the Vermont street A. M. E. church, the church of his choice. Rev. Maurice Lewis conducted the ex

ercises the remains were intered in'Crjwn Hill Cemetery, where his wife and sevearl other relations are buried. "Yes. sir. I believe I am the son of Thomas Jefferson; have every reason to think he was mv father, and no reason to lninK otnerwise. My mother was a slave girl, a anana nanasome woman, belonging to Mr. Christian, of (Jharlestown. Va. Thomas Jefferson and my mother's master were warm personal inenas, and f reauentlv exchanged visits, Mr, jenerson passing a good deal of his time at Charlestown and at Mr. Christian's house. My mother was a housemaid, and had charge of th e apartments Mr. Jefferson usually occupied. Her name was Millie Reddtford, and she was said to be a very pretty woman in her younger aays, aunougn a dark mulatto. I was born In March, 1830, at the house of my mother's master. I can remember the homestead well, and have myself seen Thomas Jefferson. My mother and all Der peuine aiwayn mill uiv u ao mjr xaiui, and I have no reason to doubt their word. My mother was unmarried when I was born, and my master has often told me who my father was, and it was he who named me Robert Jefferson. These are the reasons for inj- belief, and of which I suppose I am really the offspring of Thomas Jefferson." The following residents of this city acted as pan bearers: Wm. franklin, james Lucas, ElishaKelley, James Riley, Richard liartlett and llham Kersey. Wnrner'H 8afe Kidney mill Liver Cure. THREE OF A KIND. John K. Bittenhouse. Harry T. Foxwell and Julius Coleman Escape From Prison. Some months since, after a long trial in in tne United States Court, John K. Rittenhouse was convicted of counterfeiting and sent to the Southern Prison ior a long term ( of years. On Wednesday morning he, In company with two other criminals, made their escape from prison. The following account is taken from the Louisville CourierJournal : Three noted convicts, Harry T. FoxwelL Juliua Coleman and John K. Klttenhouse. escaped' from the Indiana State Prison south, near Jefferson ville. at an early hour yesterday morning. These convicts were all in the hospital nnder treatment, ana toox advantage ox men positions to form a lan of escape, which proved entirely successful. ox well probably planned the escaoe. as he Is known to be a very shrewd rascal. At a Quarter to 2 o'clock yesterday moraine Fox well awakened a fellow-convict in the hospital and told him to watch the sick for him, aa he (Fexwell had to wait upon Dr. Sherrod, the Prison surgeon, who was 111 in another room. The convict arose as directed and acted as nurse in. Foxwell's place. At 5 o'clock three suits of con vlcur clothing were found In the hall way leading out of the hospital, and the iron door leading from this hallway was unlocked A key had been made to unlock this door, and the convicts having arranared with some body for cast-off clotniog, dropped their stripes and donand citizens' garb. When once In the Prison yard their escape was easy. The guard only makes his round every half-hour. They knew when he would pass a given point, and going directly to the wooden wall, climbed on top, and dropping down, were free. The officers were on their trlle eaily yesterday morning, and Warden Howard ofTered a reward for their return. Harry T. FoxWvllls thirty-two years of age, and was sent up from Rush County in March, 1878, for murder, to serve during bis natural life. His crime was committed in Rushville. where Foxwell kept a saloon, lie murdered a traveler for his money. He was a gambler and "street fakir" before going into business at Rushville. His home Is la Baltimore He Is a very shrewd party, and is a dangerous man to be at large. Jsmes K. Rlttenhouse la a United States convict, aged about sixty years, and was sent up for counterfeiting silver coin. He is a desperate old man, and has been engaged in villainy all his life He belonged to leveral gangs of counterfeiters. Johns Coleman is a lawyer, and was sent from Evansvllie. He only had about fifteen months to serve. Coleman's career has formerly been written op in this paper how he attempted to swindle an Insurance company by making affidavit that a policy-holder had been drowned and his conviction for the crime, etc. Coleman was a man of ability and standing in Evansvllle previous to his recent trouble. Mnoa nis confinement ne has been regarded as not quite sound in mind, and his bear ing, under the circumstances, would indicate that he was not quite right in the upper story.

The Brown Divorce Vase. 'I see," said Mrs. Smyth, looking over the evening paper, "that the Brown divorce case ha3 gotten into the Courts." "It has, ehr' said Vir. Smyth. "And now I suppose the papers will be filled with the disgusting details of the trial. These divorce cases ought to be heard by the Courts with closed doors. It is disgraceful that the pub lic journals should be permitted to cater to the depraved appetites of the people. What does the report say, Ellen T' "Mrs. Brown, it says, bought the suit, and Mr. Brown is the defendant" "I know; but what does it say about the proceedings? Go on and read it" " 'Mrs. Brown came into the Court room, heavily veiled, with her counsel, and sat right in front of the Jury box.' It is a very short report" "That's queer. The Evening 8unbeam usually has such things in full. Well, go on." "'Mr. Brown sat with his counsel, and after the Jury was selected the counsel for Mrs. Brown rose to present his case. He spoke for half an hour, going over all the charges, which were of a revolting character, and' "Doesn't it give what the man said?" "Apparently not Too bad, isn't it?" "That's the poorest newspaper I ever saw. I'll buy the Argus after this. However, the Gimlet will have a verbatim report in the morning. Read what is there anyway." " 'After the . case had been thüs opened, the counsel said that he had twenty-three witnesses present each of whom would unfold under oath a portion of this most painful story.'" "Ah! now we are coming to it!" "Here seems to be the testimony of the first witness In full. Perhaps, Henry, I'd better not read it. It is probably very shocking." . "Oh, well, of course such things ought not to be printed, but if the newspapers will insert them and thrust them into decent families, we might as well look over them. What did he swear to?" "The paragraph is full of asterisks, as if some of the most unpleasant revelations have been omitted." "Mutilated, hey? Fahaw! How annoying! When I want a thing I want it I don't want a few eoraps of it. Read it anyhow." " 'The witness said but no, I was mistaken. 'Just as the witness began to testify the counsel for the defense rose to interrupt him.'" "U hat on earth was he meddling with it for?' " 'The counsel urged upon the Court the desirability of preventing so much .scandal, and he offered to consent that Mrs. Brown should have a simple decree of divorce upon the ground of desertion.' " "Xot accepted, of course? These lawyers are a nuisance." " 'This was agreed to by the counsel for the plaintiff, and the decree being promptly granted by the Court the witnesses and the Jury were dismissed.' " "And the whole thing dropped?" "So the report says." "Not a line of testimony?" "No." "It's outrageous. And a case that excited so much public interest, too." "Shameful!" said Mrs. Smyth. "But I'll get it in spite of the Court," said Mr. Smyth. "I know Simpson, one of the witnesses, and I'll call to-morrow and ask him to give me all the facts. Then we can pass them around." Then Mrs. Smyth threaded her needle and Mr. Smyth stretched himself on the lounge for a nap. Max Adilir. The young women of Nevada City, Cal., s m use the town while amusing themselves.

A New Jersey woman who has been divorced from three husbands, says she feels so discouraged that she doesn't think she'll try marriage more than four times more. It is an old motto, "Be natural." That depends. It is just what most people ought not to be, and if the saving doctrine of total depravity be true it is very bad advise indeed.
