Ir is a curious fact that those who cry out loudest against the injustice of the Champion Beaper Works declining to employ any Knights of Labor, justify those Unions which insist that all non-union men must go. They see nothing tyrannous in this. Such a monstrous doctrine is, however, contrary to the principles of the Knights of Labor as laid down by Mr. Powderiy.

THE

noble army of boycotters in New

York who made such a pronounced failure of the attempt to injure the business of plucky Mrs. Gray,the baker,have since turned their attention, between drinks, to boycotting Mrs. Landgraf, a Bohemian baker, who refuses td allow the gang to run her business. The result of the boycott has been to divert public attention fcom Mrs. Gray to the new boycotted bakery rather in a manner to make Mrs. Gray wish that hers was the only boycotted bakery in the town, for the New York Evening Post, whioh !has stood up manfully and battled for ?the right, has just turned over to Mrs. Xandgraf the sum of $1,540 as the sum total of cash contributions received for .the plucky woman through the paper. After awhile any man who wants to increase his business will offer a premium to the boycotters to boycott him.

We cannot too strongly impress upon our readers the fact that most diseases are caused by irregular action of the kidneys and this is true even though you do not feel any pain in them, for* they are deficient in nerves of sensation and give forth pain only in the last stages of disease. It is an. undeniable fact that for all diseases of the kidneys caused by exgess of uric acid in the blood, Warner's «afe cure has no equal.

Mary Saunders, White, Shoots Her --•^Colored Paramour.'.

Shot in the Back While He Was Trying to Get Away From St*

Her.

She Pursues Him Into the Doctor's .. Office for the Purpose of Finishing the Job.

From Wednesday's daily.

Last night between seven and eight o'clock a probable murder occurred in the west end of the city near the gas works on the T. H. & S. E. track on Water street between Swan and Poplar. James Beard, a colored 'man, aged 24, who works as a brick molder in August Peetus brick yard at St Mary's, came to the city yesterday afternoon at 5:45 for bottle of gin whioh he used to brace himself up with during the day while working. He has been living in this city since last July, coming here from Indianapolis, where his parents now reside on Brookside avenue, and a month or so ago went to work in a brick yard at St. Mary's. In September when the cirous was here he got acquainted with Mary Saunders, a white woman, who says she was 24 years old on the 22nd of last month. They have been going together ever since, and the woman is soon to become a mother. The Saunders woman liv«w out on Second avenue near the Polyteohnic, but last night when Beard, met her she was down near the gas works visiting a family. A uarrel occurred before the shot was

Their stories conflict as to what happened. He says he resolved to quit her and told her he didn't want to have any thing more to do with her. She says he kept picking at her and that she ran in the Thomas house, picked up a revolver that was lying there with two loads in itand went out and shot him. The ball entered at the base of the left shoulder. When the ball hit him Beard dropped, but he quickly got

loBt

again and ran

north on the railroad track toward Main, the woman pursuing him. She sa?s the light at the jail corner blinded her and she

track of him. She

weefc up

the corner of First and Main and there heard some men talking about a colored man from St. Mary's being shot by a woman. She went in Sam Brown's saloon on Main between Second and Third thinking he might be there. She had the revolver cocked in her hand and kept her hand in her pocket.

Her victim was not at Brown's. As she was coming out of the saloon door she met Sergeant Dwyer going in in response to a call sent from the saloon to the police office about some suspicious characters. The officer noticed that the woman was apparently hiding something, but he paid little attention to her. The shooting was not

knowD

to the offi

cer at this time. A few moments afterwards, when Sergeant Dwyer heard a rumor on the stieets that a colored man had been shot by a white woman named Mary ''Saulters," he knew right away that the deed was committed by Mary Saunders, the woman he met coming out of Brown's a short time before.

From Brown's the Saunders woman went back to the corner of First and Main and was there told that the wounded man had been taken to Dr. John R. Crapo's office. She went at once to the doctor's office and there encountered her victim, who was sitting up surrounded by a few men waiting for the doctor to come. She said afterward it was her intention to finish the job right there in the offioe, but that he looked so pitiable and he seemed so weak that she gave up her intention. Very little was said between the two, for Officer John Goodpasture arrested her there and took her to jail. The revolver with the single load still in it was taken from her. Dr. Crapo probed for the ball, butfonnd that it had struck a bone and gone in and that its location could not be ascertained. As the bottle of gin was taken from his pocket Beard said he would not have come to town at all if ifc hadn't been to get it filled. He was removed to St.. Anthony's Hospital in the patrol wagon.

A visit to the jail ac hour after the shopting found the prisoner up in the big woman's cell along with Mary Myers and Maggie Fogelman, who were put in the other day. She asked if Beard was going to die and when told that l\e probably would not, she said she was sorry that she intended to kill him outright. She said she hoped the bullet would work its way and strike his heart, for she wanted him to suffer some of the trouble he had caused her. She would give no definite reason for the shooting. She said she had tried to live right sine* she got out of the penitentiary but "they" wouldn't let her and she did not care what happened to her now. She was sorry that she had to go over the road for such a thing as Beard and then she asked if they would likely hang her.

The Saunders woman was arrested in 1882 by Sergeant Dwyer for larceny and was sent to the penitentiary for one year, and eight or nine months ago she got out of the Joliet prison, where she served a year for bigamy. She was sent from Marshall, 111., on the latter charge. She married a colored man named Chas. Stewart when she didn't have a divorce from another colored man named David Daniels. On the trial she swore she had colored blood in her, but that is no doubt untrue. She is a pure white woman if appearances do not deceive. She is a hard character and it is said will fight on the drop of the hat. It will be remembered that the newspapers at the time she was in Joliet published an account of the Saundars woman staining her body and face in order to make the prison officials believe that 6he was a mulatto. Beard, her victim, has the appearance of a hard-working man. He is tall am1 muscular. Tne bullet was a No. 32. The theory accepted by the police is that the shooting was done through jealousy.

This morning the prisoner was taken up to police headquarters, where she

was questioned by the officials. She seemed to be somewhat sorry for shooting Beard. She said she loved him and she didn't care what anybody said. The wounded mao is at the hospital where he is receiving the best treatment possible. The bullet is still. in his body. The wound is a dangerous pne and may result fatally.

HOLLINGSWORTH BEHIND THE BARS-

the Embezzling Treasurer ot Knox County in the Sheriffs Custody. VINCENNES, Ind, April 26.—The Coun ty Treasurer was jailed tonight Several weeks ago treasurer Hollingsworth was arrested for embezzlement, and, af ter twenty-four hours of search, succeeded in giving bond in the sum of $2,500.

Postmaster Kackley became oge of his bondsmen. Today was the time set for trial, and when Judge Malott, of the Knox Circuit Court, called the case, Hollingsworth did not appear, much to everybody's surprise. For awhile it was thought that Hollingsworth had skipped* out. Late this afternoon Postmaster Kackley collared the Treasurer on the street, and at

5:30

o'clock

took him before the Judge and gave him up. The Sheriff took charge of Hollingsworth, and after dark hb made every effort to give bond, but failed, and at 9 o'clook he was placed behind the bars. The spectacle at the jail was a most sensational as w^ll as a sad one. The County Treasurer cried, and he could be heard a block away. Totally ruined, Hollingsworth will now SHffer the penalty. He is an embezzler of over eighty thousand dollars of the peoples money, and the feeling against him trad the boodle gang, in which he officiated, is intense. Today the official investigation commenced, the experts, Allen and Fleener, beginning their work of overhauling the county books for a period of six years back. Further developments are expected tomorrow.

Still in Jail.

VINCENNES,

Apr., 27—[GAZETTE spec

ial]—County Treasurer Hollingsworth, who was arrested last night, failing to appear at the trial on charge of embezzling county funds, at one o'clock today, has, after diligent attempts by the Sheriff, been unable to secure bail, and still remains behind the bars completely broken down. He sobs and bemoans his terrible fate in the most pitiable manner.

OBITUARY.

ONE MORE TAKEN FROM OUR MIDST. To the GAZETTE:—Thesudden and untimely death of MisslAlmedia, Liston was a.shock to her many friends and relatives. Miss Liston was twenty years of age, end enjoying the highest degree of health, when she was suddenly attacked by the cold hand of death, on Saturday last, and in two hours time was beyond all earthly suffering. Dr. Young, the attending physician gave the cause as cerebral hemorrhage. All medical aid was unavailing. The deceased was a native of Currie township, Sullivan county, Indiana. Her mother, Hannah Liston, has been a widow several years, and is now living in Vigo county. The deceased has for some time past been living with the family of John M. Siner, in Terre Haute, who has lately moved to 518 Osborne street There are many friends who sincerely mourn her untimely departure, and deeply sympathize with the bereaved family, and will all join, in consoling the heart-broken mother.

It seems, and really is cruel, that the hand of death should take one so young, so early in life and tear them from friends and relatives, it does not seem real it is as a dream

only wish it was a dream.

But when we remember the promises in the Book of Life, we rejoice that some time in the near future, we may bid farewell to earth forever and join our departed friends in that land where sorrow and parting never comes, and which lies beyond the stars: Oh! no, she ia not loat, tbe loved and cherished, y,^: xpl

Tho' slumbering deep beneath the church yard sod. Tis but the worthless casket that bas perished,

While she has gone before us unto God! She is not lost in youth's bright sonny morn-

She gave her heart with all its hopes to God, Then from the world and its allurements turning,

She meekly walked the path her Master trod. She is not lost for with a love nndying

She gently hovers o'er the friends lef there And toward the pearly gate is ever striving To draw the wandering feet of those so dear.
