How Demas Escaped From Lunatics Gun

Narrated by Another Contribution In a Series Reported by W. "I was in the newspaper business so long and, naturally, had so many experiences I can't for the life of me recall which was the most nerve-tingling," remarked Demas S. Coe, of the Coe Printing company, ex-county auditor and well known newspaper writer." " 'Bugs Bowers, famous newspaper tramp, used to hand me a thrill every time he came to Richmond, once nearly dying in the old Item office while sleeping under a leaking gas meter, but the time I actually had Ice water coursing through my veins was when the escaped lunatic who whipped the entire police forces of Muncie, Marion and Portland called on me and demanded an explanation of a story I had written about him." Hoisting himself upon a reporter's desk Mr. Coe wittily related his "run in" with the combatative lunatic. "This 'nut' who gave me the scare of my life had escaped from Easthaven," Coe began. . "He may still be at large so I won't tell his real name. I'll call him Smith. Well, after Smith escaped he created a reign of terror in the gas belt. He literally whipped, individually and collectively, the police departments of three towns, Muncie, Marion an I Portland, and the newspapers were filled with his warlike deed. "One noon I was working at my desk in the local room of the Item. All the rest of the staff and the printers had Social News Mr. and Mrs. Charles J.

He found a comfortable" seat upon my desk. We exchanged greetings, then he asked if the Item bad printed anything about the doings of one "Smith, late of the violent ward . at Easthaven. I told him we had. 'Do you think he is crazy V he asked. 'I don't know' I replied, 'but they say he is, out at Easthaven.' The fellow didnt say anything for a spell, then he causually remarked, 'Well, he ain't crazy. I know because I'm Smith.' He accumulated a bad look in his eyes. My hair arose and my tongue went on a strike. I remember of regretting that I had not gone to church oftener, but when he opened a grip at his side, to get a revolver to end my miserable career, as I thought, I Just naturally quit thinking. My brain went out of commission. But Smith only pulled a bunch of newspaper clippings refering to his escapades. I Indistinctly remember Smith remarking that these accounts of his escapades were enough to drive any man crazy you see I was Just easing myself through the composing room door at this time. When I came out of hiding Smith was gone. He scared me out of ten years of my life as it was, and I don't understand why he didn't terminate it during the interview."

The expenditures for the first month of 1915 were sixty-five per cent of the amount spent the last three months of 1914.

BLACK BOARD CHART USED TO DISPROVE CLAIM FOR GRAVEL Bond Asserts Herbert Green Received Pay for More Material Than He Hauled to Contractors.

A small blackboard was produced in circuit court today by City Attorney Bond and placed on the witness chair before the jury "which heard the suit of Herbert Green against SIsk, Sprin kle & Level for $1,950, which the plain tiff says is the balance due on gravel and sand furnished the contractors for the bricking of Eighth street. The city Attorney was making the argument for SIsk, Sprinkle & Level, and on the black board he worked out problems In cubic feet and yards for tne benefit of the jurymen. Bond said the plaintiff agreed to furnish the sand and gravel in wagons of a capacity of one and one-fourth yards, which equals 33.75 cubic feet, where as the capacity of the wagon beds was only, a little more than 29 cubic feet. He declared the contractor paid for one load out of every seven which they did not receive. City Engineer Charles took the stand . before the arguments started and said his most liberal estimate of the amount of sand and gravel needed for the improvement would be less than the amount Green has already received pay for. The jury received the case this afternoon. TWO CHINESE GUNMEN PAY DEATH PENALTY BY LEA8ED WIRE. OSSINING, N. Y., Feb. 5.
