The drills at the Staunton well struck Trenton rock on Tuesday, and work was suspended until the stockholders could be notified, after which it was decided to resume drilling. The hole is dry at a depth of 1,460 feet, and the fact that rock has been struck at 200 feet lees than in either the Diall or Phoenix wells, is, in the opinion of those interested, a good indication of the presence of gas.
George D. Harris, for many years in the employ of the late Will Gilbert, the confectioner, and for the past year traveling salesman for Dr. R. M. Hollingsworth, met with a painful accident on Monday while driving along a country road five miles out of Lafayette. A dog jumped over fence a and by snapping and barking at the heads of the horses caused them to rear and run away. Mr. Harris guided them into the fence and in so doing the wagon overturned into a ditch. Mr. Harris fell beneath the waggon, and but for the timely aid of two passing farmers would, in a few minutes, have died. He was brought to this city on Thnrsday by Dr. Hollingsworth and taken to the residence of Mrs. Gilbert, on north Fifth street. His injuries are internal and the chances are eqtlal for his recovery.
On Wednesday morning the freight brakemen on the E. & T. H. and E.
H. yaids here struck, asking for $2.10 and $2.35, the latter for tbe foreman of the crews, which, is the price paid by the VandaMa. They had been gelling $2 and $2.25. Their demands was acceded io and work was resumed, but at 11 o'clock they again struck, demanding $2.25 aad $2.50. Work was not resumed until Thu. sday when their demand was acceded to, and the blokcade lifted on Friday morning. Tbe strike on the M&ckey roads terminated at the same time, as did that of our local switchmen, both sides making concessions. The strike was looked upon with great significance here and the authorities are to be commonded for their prompt and satisfac tory settlement of the difficulty.
There was an unsual scene in the circuit court room at 3 o'clock on Thursday afternoon when the jury, after being out six hours, returned a verdict of "not guilty" in the case of old Andy Hale, who was charged with stealing $156 from the safe in Watson's implement store. Andy's face, if possible, was more colorless than usual during thejfew minutes that elapsed before the reading of the verdict, but when the announcement that he could go free was made he jumped to his feet, face radiant with delight, his black eyes dancing, and, strange to say, his left hand showing no tendency tOi approach his heart, which organ had theretofore caused him so much suffering. He told the jurymen that he was much obliged to them, shook hands wiU) bystanders, and in the exuberance of his joy threw his arms about his at-' torney, S. C. Stimpson, and attempted to implant a kiss upon his cheek, but to this expression of gratitude and possibly of attorney fees, Mr. Stimson objected. Judge Mack, in speaking of Andy's criminal prosecutions, said they dated much further back than The Mail bad estimated. The judge himself appeared in a case wherethe.old veteran was on trial about thirty years ago. Sinoe then trial has followed trial, imprisonment succeeded imprisonment, until now it is possiole Andy has forgotten the num ber or occasions. The old here, if hero he is, has furnished substance for more ridiculous stories, has enjoyed the acquaintance of more prominent men in private as well as legal transactions, and probably worn clothes of a larger number of citizens than any other .one man in the community, and when he disappears, finally, from tbe arena many will feel that a part of daily life has been takon from them. ^4
