GOLD. IN INDIANA.
Iicitenent Over a Recent Discovery in Scott County. A n Old Prospector's Long Search at Length Successful An Indiaa Tradition of a Bich Silver Min Revived. Lexington, Ind., Special. Considerable excitement was created here yesterday by the announcement that Isaac Nice, a prospector, bad found a gold mine, or at least rich evidences of one, on the farm of 'William Ilastel. Trofosor Towers, the well-known geologist, examined the specimens of precious metals taken out, and pro nounced them to be very pure, and worth about $20.67 per ounce. Mace, the discoverer, offers to work the mine himself, and give the owner of the land one-eighth of the product therefrom. It ii generally believed that Mace's assertions are true, and that he has found the mine. The State Geologist says theie is a strong tprinkling of precious raetals all over the district, and local geologists have found a peculiar kind of clay, such as is found in California mines, which is thoroughly impregnated with silver. About one hundred pounds of this clay placed in a quicksilver testing mort at Jetlersonville recently, yielded twenty-five dollars worth of silver in a very pure form. Mare created some excitement a few months ao by finding a gold nugget worth $11. At another time he went down to a foint on Wood's Creak and found a sieve nil of a peculiarly colored tand containing a large quantity of gold dust. He has been looking lor L'e mine he now claims to have discovered for eleven years. The story of the existence of such a mine fee says was confided to him by an old farmer named Hastings, who said he heard of it from the Indians. Mace is now fifty-eight years of age. When a young man he and Jus brother went to Iook for the mine and prospect for oil. Both were in love with the same younp lady, and during the hunt her nie was brought up. They quarreled, and Isaac drew a revolver, shooting his brother through the head, killing him instantly. lie was arrested and acquitted, the jury finding him insane. After about a year's stay in the asylum he was pronounced cured and discharged. He again began his hunt for the nine. About ayiar ago he went home greatly agitated, and said he had found the jaine. During the night, in his dreams, he raved about it, and in glowing words described its fabulous wealth. Tbe next morning he was raving mad. He was again sent to the asylum, and agJin returned as cured. He also again commenced tbe hunt. Last week he discovered an oil well, which everybody visited. It is located on what is known as Gold Hill. 'J be oil. in considerable quantities, was feand at a depth of thre feet. The well, for such the evidences certainly points that it is, will be worked immediately by capitalists. In conversation lit night, Mace said: "I am certain that there is more silver in Clark County than in any other in the district. It will te found there in paying quantities some time. Scott County contains the gold depc.iH. Gold is alwaya located in or Haar a creek, river or streamlet; at least I have found it so. There is an Indiin triditien that there id a silver mine near the mou:h of Bull Creek, whic h was worked as late as 101 by the Indians. So the story joes: A farmer who had settled there, and had been good to the Indian?, was taken, after being blindfclded, into the mine and allowed to carry away all becculd in his pockets. He was then takea out as secretly as he had entered. The Indians afterward went West and never retained. The farmer spent his whole life looking for the mine, but was never able to ad it again. This is the story, and I believe it to be true, because I have found indication of silver in the neighborhood." "What do you mean by the indications?" asked the reporter. "Well, the Magnetic needle points that way. A magnetic needle, so-called among pree pec tors, is not really a needle, and bears ae resemblance to one. It consists of a 1iece of witch-hazel, hollowed out ike a bottle. Inside is placed a gold dollar, a silver dime, and a small portion of quicksilver aad smlphate of zinc. The hole is plugged up, and the whele suspended from a silken cord. It is held perfectly still in the baad, and the witch-hazel needle will vibrate in the direction of either raid or silver; no other metals will attract it. Taat i the way I located my receat gold discovery." "Mr. Mace, what do you think about the supposed Spanish pirate treasure which tradition rays is buried on the falls opposite Louisville?" "There may be something in it. I have Seen hundreds of holes dug down there by treaaure-seekers, and I believe one man did lind firj.OX) in a crock. He was a Louisville Jew. Dut as to the Spanish pirate story. I take no stock in it. It is true the magaetic needle will vibrate over certain fields near the falls Delow Jeffersonville. but ray theory about it is this: The ground ia that section is sprinkled with silver ore in Urge quantities, and the peculiar clay, wkich is similar to the California- mining clay, contains the silver which attracts the needle. I am an old man, have made mineralogy a life study, and I tell you it is my candid opinion that there is just as much ;rold in Indiana, and particularly the Third District, as there is in California. If this mine I have found produces any great quantity of the precious ore, I have no doubt but what millions of dollars will be put into wining operations here. We have found coal, iron, natural gas, silver and petroleum ' here, and one can readily see that the mining interests of Indiana, if sufficiently dedeveloped, would be expensive." . Mace anl his brother together ire worth $1,000 which tbey will invest in developing the mine. PATRICK EGAN Congratulate the Irish Leagne on the Pro. gress of the Cause. LiFCOc, Neb., June 20. The following important circular has been sent out by the Executive of tbe Irish National League of America: Liscoi.x, Neb., June 19, 1V. 2M the Officers and Members of Branches : We are glad io be able to congratulate you on the splendid progress our cause has made since we last addressed you. In a Parliament elected on very different Issues. the bill granting Home Rule to Ireland was only defeated by the narrow majority of tklrtv vote. After the general election now about to take place we believe that Mr. Gladstone will be in a position to undo, by an overwhelmlag majority, the so-called union which that great statesman himself, in bis recent address to Jrfi-liottlAu, no truly described as a paper naion, obtained by force and fraud, and never sanctioned or accepted by the Irish nation. The measure of home rule proposed by Mr. Gladstone will, we believe, be productive of peimanent peace and good will between Ireland and i-nglac'. while the twenty-year coercion alternative oi Lord Salisbury and the Marquis of JIartington rould result only in a more deadly feud than ar,ythat has ever before existed between the two countries, accompanied by conse-juencei which every lover of liberty, every friend cf humanity should deeply deplore. The provincial committee scheme of Mr. Chamberlain is unworthy of consideration. In the face of the desperate and alssrraceful attempts of Balisbury, Churchill and Chamberlain to foment religions strife throughout Ireland, our people hare acted nobly, and, with the exception of a handiul of mij(ruitd loyalists in Itellast, they have shown the world that the days of stupid religious bigotry and intolerance among Irishmen has forever paed away. The iwn of Home Knie for Ireland is now fairly before tbe Fn;li.n people, and we feel confident that the great mars of fair-minded, intelligent Englishmen will support Mr. Gladstone by sending him back to Parliament with a large majority, and enable bim to solve, beneficially for England W TT, 4 H ? g?;i,$t aitf BW ill-
gerous problem the BHtuh Empire has had to deal with during this century. In pursuance of fie powers conferred upon us by tbe National Executive Committee of the League, we hereby summon the third regular coavention of the Irish National League of America to be held In; Central Music Hall on August H and 19. 16, and we trust that every branch ot the League will De fully represented thereat. All branches aud societies aitiliated with the League that have subscribed regular dues for the current year, or have contributed to the Parliamentary fund a sum equal to the amount of dues, hall le entitled to representation, and the basis of representation sbafl be as follows: One delepate lor every fifty members in good standing; provided, however, that in countr) districts where the number of fifty memlers cau not le ensilv reached, anv number from twenty-five to fifty iball be entitled to one delegate. We look for the attendance of an important delegation from the Home League and larliamentary. All arrangements tor tbe convention shall be ander the sole charge ef the Committee of Arrangements at Chicago already organized, of which exPiesident Alexander Sullivan and the officers of the League for the city of Chicago and the State of Illinois are members. Every branch of the League should set to work promptly to prepare for the coming crisis, and should remit all funds on hand immediately to the National Treasurer at Detroit, so that the money may e forwarded by him to Irelaud. and be made available, if necessary, for the approaching campaign. All true friends of Ireland should be active and earnest in organization, and endeavor to make our approaching convention worthy of the cause in which we are engagedthe cause of Irish liberty. We remain jours, very faithfully. .. . Patrick Eg a m, President. Ciiaklkm O Kaii.i.Y. Treasurer. Jons P. Sutto, Secretary.
NEWSPAPER MANAGER KILLED. Without Warning, Colonel strong of St. Joseph, Bio., la Shot Dead. St. Joseph. Mo , June is. At 11 o'clock this morning, as Colonel J. W. Strong, manager of the Herald, was sitting in the counting room with his back to the door, Dr. S. A. Richmond entered and drawing a revolver, fired one shot which struck his victim in the left side of the neck. Colonel Strong jumped up and staggered towards the back oflice. Richmond fired two more shots and Strong fell. Richmond then turned outside, and going some twenty feet from the door, placed the revolver to his temple and fired and dropped instantly to the sidewalk. At the time of the shooting Colonel Strong was engaged in conversation with some unknown man and was totally unconscious of the approach of an enemy until he was struck by the bullet. Richmond drove up to the front of the oflice in his carriage. He is said to have alighted coolly and walked to the Herald Oflice door without exhibiting any signs of excitement. When he came back, ' after shooting Colonel Strong, he found the carriage had been driven away, and it was then that he shot himself. Colonel Strong fell, struck by two bullet, one of which, as stated, struck him in the neck, ranging upward into the brain. The other struck in his back atd is believed to have penetrated his heart. He died live minutes after the first shot was fired. Richmond's bullet took e fleet in the left temple, but it is impossible to tell whether it will prove fatal or not. It is believed, however, that he will not recover. The trouble which has resulted so fatally, is solely of Richmond's own making. He has long been known to the newspaper fraternity as the discoverer and manufacturer of Samaritan Nerrine and has been an extensive advertiser and has had an enormous business in his nostrum. Some live months ago he disappeared from this community and left a lot of papers evidently the work of either a knave or hopeless lunatic. He charged Colonel Strong" and other prominent attorneys of this city with having ruined him, and indicated that he had ended his career in the river. At that time opin ions differed as to his condition, some regarding him insane and others believing him simply working a ruse to obtain $s.",lX insurance on his life. Since then he has been hopelessly insane, the deed of today proving his lunacv beyond a doubt. Colonel Strong leaves a large family, consisting of a wife, three sons, the eldest of whom is John r. Streng, editor-in chief of the Herald. The Colonel was sixty-one years old, a lawyer by profession and a man who has been very prominent in the Republicaa party of Northwest Missouri for nearly thirty years, ills nome was originally Jacksonville, 111., where he has a large number of friends and relatives. A HEARTLESS BRUTE. A Fair-Haired Young German Lady, Mar ried, Ilobbed and Deserted. I'aiLADKi.rni a, June 2U. On Sunday last Ursula Lena Heer, a protege of Faul Weber, the celebrated landscape painter of Munich, Bavaria, a fair-haired young German lady who had arrived from Munich the Monday previous, was led to the altar in New York a happy bride of Louis Haversmith, who crossed the Atlantic on the same steamer, and during the seventeen days' passage was unremitting in his devotion. Yesterday Lena's honeymoon had an abrupt termination, and she sat a broken-hearted woman in her room at the Continental Hotel, in this city, where she had been deserted las night by the man to whom she had been married less than a week. The courtship of Louis aad Lena was romantic and brief. The young girl's father was at one time well off in Munich, but met with rever-es before his death, and Lena became a member of the family of Paul Weber, the distinguised landscape artist, and father of Paul C. Weber, the artist of '2M North Thirteenth street, this city, her mother having married and come to America. A few weeks ago she decided to join her mother, who lives in Chicago, and was placed in charge of a Mr. Knox, a St- Paul lawyer, whose wife is a pupil of Mr. Weber, for the losg journey acros. the ocean and to the metropolis of the West. Before leaving, a large trunk, a chest and a satchel were packed with her clothing, a stock of linens and other goods such as well-to-do foreigners brinz to this country. In the trunk were also her jewelry and valuable presents, inciuuing une paioiings en l dt .Mr. weoer to his brother, sister and son, of this city. On board the steamer she met Haversmith for the first time, he having made her acquaint ance through Mr. Knox. Haversmith must be an accomplished scoundrel to have enlisted the friendship of Mr. Knox, who Is a lawyer of high standing in St. Paul, and quoted as a good judge of men. They have no doubt that he was aa badly deceived as Lena. From the description the deserted wife gives of Haversmith, be is a tall, broad shouldered, well-propor-tioDed man, has black hair, whiskers and mustache, and wears glasses; a fluent conversationalist, speaking both English and German with the polish of extended travel and access to society. It was not surprising that after intrenching hlmaelt securely in the friendship of Mr. Knox, be was enabled to win the heart of his artless and confiding protege. On the steamer and in New York, Haversmith claimed to be a wealthy wine and liquor merchant of Red Bluff, CaL Death of Mrs. Bloffitt. RtsHviLLE, June 20. Mrs. Rebecca A. Moffitt, President of the high-school branch of the State Teachers' Association, died at her home in this place about 9 o'clock this morning. She has been actively connected with school work in this State for many ypars, and has been principal of the RushvRle High-school since the organization of our graded schools, thirteen or fourteen years ago. Her death is deeply deplored by this community. The funeral will take place on Wednesday.

Superintendent of Ordnance Davis, of the Navy Yard, to He Iteplaced. Special to tbe Sentinel. Washihgtoh, June 20. -It seems to be a wellestablished fact that Mr. Davis, Superintendent of the Ordnance Department of the Navy Yard in this city, who has made himself generally disliked by the few Democrats employed there, op account of some arbitrary orders, is soon to be replaced, and will be relieved by Lawrence Cosgrovc, of Baltimore. On last Wednesday Mr. Cosgrove was at the yards, taking in the situation of affairs, and while there talked for a few minutes with two Democratic employes, Burton and Beaumont, and for thi3 offense the two gentlemen yesterday were suspended by Superintendent Davis on the charge of having conversed with visitors. Up to yesterday there was no rule of this kind in force, and none of the employes ever before heard of it. Davis and Captain McCormick, who is also a Republican, have been making it so disagreeable for Democrats, that a change is regarded as necessary by Secretary Whitney. It is alleged that Davis has said that all those employed in the yards who are not Democrats and are not members of his church can expect no favors from him. THE FIRE TRAGEDY. A Coroner's Jury liceommend the Tlolding of Charles Keilly as the Instigator. Chicago, June 17 The Coroner's Jury, which has been investigating the Canal street tenement house fire of June 7, in which eight persons were suffocated, and a littla child so injured that it baa since died, finished itn labors this afternoon and held Charles Reilly to the Grand Jury. It will be remembered that an effort was made to fasten the crime on Tnomi3 Darkin, husband of one and father of another of the victims. A letter addi essed to Mr. Raleigh, the occupant of the first floor, signed Thomas Durkin, was received. It purported to be a confession of the commission of the deed. Mr. Durkin proved a complete alibi, and an expert testified that Charles Keilly wrote the letter. The verdict was that the victims of the fire came to their death by suffocation ; that the fire was the result of a conspiracy; that while the jury found it impossible to tell how many were in the conspiracy, they recommended that Charles Reilly be held to await the action of the Grand Jury. THROUGH THE TRESTLE. An Entire Freight Train Goes Dowa Three . Lives T-ost. Pittsburg, June 17. A special from Foxburg, Pa., says: Taint Creek trestle, on the Pittsburgh and Western Railroad, near here, was the scene of a terrible accident last night, by which three persons lost their lives and another so badly injure. that recovery is doubtful. The axel or. a middle car of a long freight train broke just as the train waa on the center of the trestle, and the entire train of twenty cars was thrown into the creek forty feet below. A large portion of the trestle work was carried with the falling train. Four of the crew were burled in the debris, the fifth. Conductor Kinue, escaping serious injury by jumping. When the wreck was cleared it was found that Engineer George Setting and Brakemen PtefJey and Kase had been killed. Fireman Geoughler was still living, but his injuries are believed to be fatal.

ANARCHISTS IN COURT.

The reading of the list of jurymen anaounced to attend in court occurred immediately after the court was opened. The Judge remarked: "If there are any who have excuses to offer as to why they should not Berve, come forward and be sworn." Alaaost every man is en his feet the aext moment. They range themselves in fronted the Judge. Their health is bad. That is the excuse in almoät every case. The Judge is an experienced magistrate. He knows what human nature is, but with delicate courtesy leaves it to themselves. "I have to leave it to your conscience, gentlemen," he says. The general conscience is equal to the task. Right hands go up before . the Magistrate, and as the oath is administered, the court sighs and exclaims: "Well, your chance of staying here is very remote anvhow, very remote." The name of those on the supplemental panel are then read. About half summoned are absent. The court does not like this, and says: ''Lt attachments be issued. for the absent jurors," then, turniag to the State's attorney, he says: 'What is the first tbiag to kedjne, Mr. Grinnell?" The answer is: "The State is ready in 1,195, and the Judge announces: Let the prisoners be brought in." A half dozen bailiffj leave to execute the order. Spies is the first to eater. Following him comes Michael Schwab, Samuel Fielden, Adolph Fischer, George Engle and Louis Lingg. Oscar Neebe was sitting in the enclosure amoag a dozen or two newspaper reporters. "Where is Neebe?" demanded State Attoraey Grinnell. "Here I am," and tne anarchist comes forward and takes his seat next to Engel. The seven anarchists sit fronting the attorneys and with their heads turned from the court. Fischer is the tallest man, and the top of bis blonde hair is elevated a couple of inches above the judicial desk. August Spies and Oscar Neebe are nervous. Spies sits at the extreme end of the row and is constantly changing his attitude. His hands go up to his face nervously; he toys at his long blonde mustache, then turns to whisper to Schwab. Tbe latter is pale, worn and distressed. He is a consumptive looking man. with apparently no vitality, and his long stay in jail during the hot weather tells on him. Engle is stolid, and apparently is unable to keep his eyes oil Captain Schaak, who sits next to Sta.es Attorney Grinnfli. When the Court had concluded hearing the pleas of j urors to bo excused from serving in the panel Captain Black, as counsel for the accused, asked leave to itbdraw the plea of "not guilty," and at once entered a motion to quash the indictments, which was argued at some length. The Court at once overruled the motion. The defense then made a mot'on for a separate trial of each of the accused tor reasons cited in a petition heretofore telegraphed. The Court expressed the view that the interests of none of the defendants would be jeopardized. He overruled the motion and directed the trial to proceed. The defense then renewed the plea of not guilty, and the work of obtaining a jury was at once proceeded with. rarsons Walks Into Court. Chicago, June 21. Shortly before :$ this afternoon Anarchist rarsons, who has been üsslng since the Haym&rket riot, walked into the Criminal Court-room, accompanied by his attoraey. His appearance was a surprise to the court and police officers. lie is supposed to have remained in hiding in this city siace the night of May 3. He drove up to the Criminal Court building in a hansom cab, and at once hurried to the court room. Captain Black asked that he be tried with the other prisoners. It appears that last Saturday Captain Black ha J a consultation with Urs. Parsons. He urged her, if she knew where her husband was, to communicate with him at once, and get him to come to Chicago for trial. The woman refused at first, but finally became convinced it was the best thing to do. He was so thoroughly disguised that his own mother would not have known him. HOME RULE FOR IRELAND. Bishop MeOuaide Opens the Subscription With a Check anda Letter. Rochester, N. Y., June 20. Bishop McQunide has opened subscriptions to the Irish Parliamentary fund in this city with a check for $100. The contribution is accompanied by the following letter: Rochester, N. Y., June 19. To Mr. Patrick Cox, Treasurer Irish Parliamentary fund: I enclose aiy check for $100 for the fund of which you are Treasurer. Tbe most promising hour Ireland has known since her Parliament was fraudently taken from her is at hand. Long years of patient suffering but persistent refusal to accept theradation are about to end. Tbe people of Ireland, omitting a small minority, demand the rights to enact for themselves such legislation as tbe interests of the country require. The thought ful and serious people of Ireland make this demand. Tbe Euglisb people contos tbat a great wrong bas been perpetuated and that reparation, quick and ample, should be made. The American people, with a unanimity tbat is cheering, claim for tbe wronged of Ireland, a measure of self-government which they know is of the essence of honest self-respect and the sole guarantee of hapniness based on material prosperity. The Irikh people have no right to be contented, or to cease from legitimate discussion, agitation and obstruction until their just demands are conceded, while in making these demands thep keep within tbe bounds of justice and law, they will have with tbem in sympathy and substantial aid, the liberty -loving and right-minded of every free country in the world. TLe election now at band in Great Britain may not settle this momentous question of home rule for Ireland, but its successor will end, and for good, centuries of cruel wrong inflicted on an oppressed people. My conviction la founded on the justice of the Irish cause, primarily, and, secondarily on the fact that by tbe extension of the ballot power is passing from the few to the many. M? trust in the people is, and always has been, firmer aud more confident than in kings or the sacred few. My present contribution is for the impending battle on the electioneering field. I shall be happy apraia and again to help it the Irish people use the favorable opportunity now giveu them to demonstrate to the world that they possess the chief characteristic of liberty-loving eople ability to snffer momentary defeat without losing courage or yielding to despair. A steady agitation of a whole people has never yet failed 7 nccess. Verv respectfully. J B. J. McQUAIDK, Bishop of Kochester. An Address and Parse for Cardinal Tasche ream Quebec, June 21.
