I crossed the bridge in June 1857 on my way from the Pennsylvania depot to Dr. Brown's residence to get a felon lanced on one of my thumbs and the bridge was there then. A saw mill stood a little to the west of it, said to be owned by A. L. Wheeler and operated by Henry Logan who claimed to have sawed the lumber for the bridge. Dr. Brown lived in the house afterwards owned by Hezekiah R. Pershing and where he ended his life. Brownlee lived just north of him and Wheeler a short distance south, where Gilmore now lives. A house stood on the bank of the river at the foot of what is now Dickson street where Charles Woodberry lived and farmed all the south part of town west of Michigan road except what I have mentioned. Joseph Westervelt lived in the north part of town. At that time Brownlee owned but little realty. His financial boom was later on. Frank Sundown. Advert! "ed Letters W. Henderson Vi.

The tears of MeManigal and the collarse cf his wife were the sequel of an uncorrected meetlne in the anteroom UnelTected so far as the principals were concerned, but carefully planned by the prosecution to thwart the scheme cf the defense to win over McManigpl through the pleas of his wife. MeManigal was taken to the anteroom without the knowledge of the defe?e and when Mr, MeManigal was called it was supposed she to go before the grind jury. Inste? she was taken into the anteroom.

The prosecution answers that its sole-pur-rbse was tc obtain admissions from .Mrs. Mc?.Tanigal that the story of her husband has related Is true. Apparently the progress made by -the defense toward getting MeManigal into a mood to repudiate his confession was offset, for.Jt Is asserted by the prosecution that te went to the anteroom where his wife met him affirming his statements were true and seekin? corroboration on her part of happenings within her knowledge. Mrs. MeManigal was before the jury prior to the scene in the anteroom, Jit admitted nothing. DIEGEL JUROR IS DROPPED Charge Made that He Hat Been Seen In Company of .Defendant, Columbus, O., June 22. Bitterness growing out of the trial of Rodney J. Diegel, senate sergeant-at-arms, charged with abetting bribery of legislators, came out when Diegel sought to have arrested Claude 'Caudell of Cleveland, a detective of the II. J. Eradbury service. Police were unable to find Cpudell when they went to a hotel in search cf him on a charge of perjury, based on his testimony in court that he had seen DIegel in com-1, pany w ith J. W.

WORK OF DREDGING RIVER AT A STANDSTILL

DREDGE BEING TAKEN APART AND PARTS WILL BE FLOATED THROUGH TOWN ON FLAT BOATS. TAKES SEVERAL WEEKS River for Four Miles Farther Will Be Cleaned Out---Work to be Finished in September. The work of dredging the river has now been stopped just north of the Reeve bridge. Preparations are being made for removing the dredge from its present position to one just below the last bridge. Of course the big dredge can not be floated stands the dredge is far too tall to boat now located just east of the dredge proper. It was in this manner that the different pieces of which the dredge is composed were first brought to the lace where the work was started several miles up the river. Probably two or three weeks will be used in transporting the dredge to the place where work is to be resumed. Then after that the cleaning out of the river will be continued for about four miles further down stream, which work it is expected will take until about the first of September at the least. The dredge will then have put in a good summer's work on the Yellow river, making many changes. During the months they have been working on the stream much has been done. A large dam has been removed and the entire river deepened and narrowed. The objects of this work are to prevent the many floods which formerly spread over the farms on the banks of the river and even the streets of the city. It is made evident by the number of people who have daily watched the work that the citizens are intensely interested in the matter, as of course, they should be. City Bills Allowed.

THREE SPIES ARRESTED Detectives Who ShadoweflFunk Now in Custody. Poyr Witnssres Appear Before Lorimer Investigators and Spring Sensaticns. Washington, June 2S. Four witnesses appeared before the Lorirrer investipratinn committee and were responsible for a succession of highly exciting incidents. The witnesses were Clarence S. Funk, general manager of the International Harvester company, who completed the testimony .vhich he beirar. or. .Monday; Virt H. Took cf DulutlC William O'Rrien of St. Paul and Shelley B. Jones of Marquette, Mich. Among the numerous developments of the r'ny were the following: Mr. Funk made good on his assertion that he would bring one of the detectives who had been trailing him before the committee.. He not only got his man. but con ailed two others. The three detectives were placed under a guard bj the sergeant-at-t.ims of the committee and will Le rdaced on the witness stand. Governor Dfreen's name was brought into the inquiry more definitely than at the Helm committee hearings. Mr. Ccok Insisted that the -governor's name was mentioned both by the telephci e operator and by Edward Hines as the person whom Mr. Eines told in a long distance telephone conversation that he would bring all the money necessary for the election of Senator Lorimer to Springfield. Mr. Cook repeated the statements he made at Springfield that Mr. Hire? had said over the telephone that he had talked with President Taft and former Senator Aldrieh and that both had said that Albert J. Hopkins should under no circumstances be returned to the senate. Edward Hines' part in the election of Senator Stephenson of Wisconsin, who soon may be subjected to an investigation by the senate, was referred to by Mr. Cook, who repeated a conversation with Hines in which the latter lamented the fact that after he had elected him the Wisconsin senator had voted fcr free lumber. TWO NEGROES LYNCHED fcailufe to Cell Out Troops Results In Illegal Deaths. Atlanta, Ca., June 29.- Pecause Governor Joseph Prown, Judro Charles H.

THE FLAWS FOR TAFTS COlliG MUCH INTEREST SHOWN OVER THE STATE IN THE PROSPECTIVE VISIT OF THE PRESIDENT. TICKETS IN DEMAND Big Republican Chief Will Mike Address to his Hocsier Friends at Indianapolis Banaiiet on Night of July 4. Idianap.di. June 27 There is much speculation as to the text from which President Tail, Lead of the I.Vpublican uarty, will speak whe.i he laces Kepul l'can party men in hiIndiana meetings, July :j and 4. From seine quarters it has been suggested that he would speak o.i m-ipro-i'v T!icr oi)erers have suggested cthei themes as possible.- TT is safe to announce that Mr. Taft will speak the aggressive, earnest and fearless gospel of IJepnblioanism. and it is predicted that his greeting and welcome in this state will be such as to leave no doubt eitl er as to the qua'itv and meaning of Tndiana Republicanism, or as to the high regard in which Mr. Taft is held among Indiana Republicans. It is a general feeling up and down the state that Hoos"er followers of the Republican cuise l ave an opportunity, in the visit of Taft to express themselves emphatically an 1 gracfully as the good friends of the President, and as the upholders of the cause he represents. With this in mind the Republicans are preparing to assist in every wav to make President Taft's vi -it t the slate a happy and auspicious one. and to impress on the party's big leader the fact that Tndiana is in line Avben it comes to mil'tant progress and fighting faith in the grand old party. The Republican banquet to be given on the night of July 4 at the Claypool iiotel, in this city, is expected to be a fine tribute to Mr. Taft, and a splendid demonstrat or of the ability of Tndiana Republicans for jrganization and cordial hospitality. The sp'rit of the occasion is expected to go far to inspire the campaign that lies ahead. It is amazing in this period of no politics to find Republicans so deep; ly interested, and so lively in theii activity in connection with the Taft visit,' said Charles S. Norton, who is in charge of the tickets for the Republican banquet to Taft. "We have been flooded with calls for plaees at the banquet . The calls ar still coming in steadily. The requests are numbered and are attend d to in their order. We have a lot of business cn hand, I can tell vou. The Republicans all over the sta'e are eagei to meet Mr. Taft, and to bear him Mr. Norton is at the Marion . club, this city, and his business is to at tend to the calls of Republicans who wish to have places at the big Re publican banquet the n'ght of July 4.

Brought From Ravenna Ohio by Keller of Bourbon and Sheriff Falconbury.

"Nick" Snyder the crook who pulled off the burglary of the Keller Meat Market and the Creamery at Bourbon a week ago last Sunday has been caught. He went to Fort Wayne first, as was thought and then to Ravenna, Ohio, where he had worked before going to Bourbon. From there he went to Kent where he obtained a position as telegraph operator on the Erie R. R. but worked last Sunday night only. Keller, the man who had been robbed, guessed the crook's plans and accordingly notified the Ravenna police to be on the watch for him. On Monday last he was arrested by the Ravenna officers and the local men on hearing of the affair sent Sheriff Falconbury after the man. Mr. Keller accompanied him. They stopped off at Fort Wayne and recovered the diamond ring valued at about $75 which however Snyder had sold for $10. The three arrived in Plymouth at 1:30 this afternoon and "Nick" Snyder is now in jail awaiting his trial. MADEBO ISSUES TAX MANIFESTO Says "Rich and Poor Must Bear Burden Equally.

Capitalist? of foreign nativity aie to receive absolute protection, but Madero hope? they will i;ot attempt as formerly to try to influence the governing authorities in any way tc secure special privileges, as he ays it will be useless He assures the people that justice will net - for the fortunate and privileged along with injustice fcr the ordinary citizen as heretofore, but that the poorest worker will have fhe same rights as the. rich employer. He promises to investigate the doings of the Diaz administration and that which !s being done not in accordance with law will be remedied and the guilty will be punished. He recommends to the revolutionary soldiers that they treat the defeated federals as brothers, as in the whole war the federals sympathized wiih the insurrection movement and believed that the triumph of the Diaz government would be calamity to the country. Naturally, says Madero, the federals had little interest in winning battles, and the federal army was not really defeated. Defeat came only to the dictator?, who were driving them How was it rossi.ble, he says, that the federals could win when they even preferred tc die that Mexican people might regain their liberty. He hopes that the press will co-operate with him frankly and sincerely, but says that as a simple citizen or president, or ?.s the occupant of any office into which he might come, he will consider as friends only that part of the press which criticises the faults that he commits and shows him his errors. He will look with suspicion upon newspapers -which approve his every act. The German government, through the iocal ambassador, has demanded that Mexico investigate carefully and fix the responsibility of the death of aGerman named Reitter. who was j killed by Maderistas in tne Etate ot 'Hidalgo. Aillaud. Madero's candidate, has been named provisional governor of the state of Vera Cruz. It is the first step in the settlement of the difficult ties which have troubled the state for 6ome weeks.
