After daylight the sheriff went to the
place where the horses Of the party had
been left, and found two or three hitch
ing-straps, halter and a bottle of whis-
key. These articles, with the captured
revolver, dark lantern, sledge-hammer
and O crowbar, are in the sheriff s
hands, and are said to have been identi-
fed.
Two attempts have previously been
made to lynch Cheek, both at Lawrence
burg--one soon after the murder Of his
father-in-law, and the other short time
subsequently.
Though convicted of murder in the
first degree, and sentenced to be hung,
new trial was granted to Cheek by the
Supreme Court of the State short time
ago, and it probably was a fear that the
criminal would ultimately escape justice
that led the misguided men who figured
in the attempted lynching on Sunday
morning to engage in an expedition
which resulted in such a complete dis
comfture. Whether "Snyder's" " inju-
ries were slight or fatal has not yet been
ascertained, but it is hoped they will lead
to his Identification and the arrest of all
engaged in this outrage upon the law.
The citizens of Brookville and vicin-
ity are highly excited over the lawless
act, and insist upon a full exposure and
swift punishment of the selfconstituted,
would be executioners of Mcdonald
Cheek.
The new trial of the murderer will
take place in Brookville, commencing
on the first of December.

The ST 9Louis Republican Of the 26th
contains the following:
Col. j. S. Hsymaker, prominent man
in the Southwest was found dead in his
bed at room No. 30 at Barnum's Hotel
yesterday morning. Colonel Haymaker
was originally from Wooster, Ohio, and
for some time past has been engaged in
heavy speculations in the vicinity of
Fort Smith, Ark, where his wife and
daughter now reside. His property is
estimated at about $50, 1000, and we un-
derstand he is president of the National
bank there. Mr.. Haymaker appears to
have gone to his room to rest and had
laid aside his over and undercoat and
vest and got into bed with his pants on.
When found he was lying on his right
side in comparatively an easy position,
as if death had come TO him quietly and
with but little pain. On searching the
body Coroner Dudley found some $275
in the pockets, and valuable papers re-
lating to land and land excavation etc.
1t is not certain that the deceased had
any suicidal intention, although death is
believed to have resulted from morphine.
A glass on the washstand had small
amount of this powerful narcotic evi-
IDENTIFY taken in water, and in valise
was found vial (one-eightn ounce)
about two-thirds full.

Mr.. Richmond, l believe 2"


In Pennsylvania, a few days ago, a
boy of fourteen years, living in Rockton,
Clearfeld county, made narrow escape
from panther. While on his way to
the tunnel, on an errand, in Union town
ship, he was startled by low and heavy
growl nearly overhead. Upon looking
up he saw panther perched on a tree,
about thirty feet from the ground, which
was wagging its tail, in anticipation Of
-springing upon its prey. No sooner did
the boys eyes meet the panther than it
gave a loud and very piercing yell, and
leaped to the ground. This sudden,
bold and noisy demonstration on the
part Of the panther frightened the colt
which the boy was riding. and it took to
fight at full speed-the panther keeping
close TO its side and about neck TO neck,
giving an occasional fierce yell, which
seemed to add speed to the colts feet.
After running in this manner for about
forty rois the panther gave up the chase.

New story About Dean Richmond.


Some one was telling me, the other
day, new story about the late Dean
Richmond, who was known far and
wide for his profanity and gruffness of
manner. Richmond was here at the
time, and my informant, who was then q
boy working in printing office, wished
to get passed over the Central railroad
With this purpose in view he entered
the Office where the magnate was, fear
ing that he should be rudely rebuifed
when he made his mission known. After
moments hesitation he said falter-
ingly; D.,, ..
Yes, what do you want of meY
II should like, sir, to get pass from
Albany to Buffalo, as | can go up on
the boat for nothing
"On what grounds do you ask for
pass2" This with a rising and very
gruff voice.
"0n the gtounds, sir, that | don't
want to pay my fare.
Richmond, without another word,
wrote out pass and handed it to the ap-
plicant.
The boy took it, saying; THANK
you, thank you, Mr.. Richmond"
You needn't thank me, youngster.
I'm d--d glad to accommodate you.
You are the first person I've ever
known, by Cd, to ask for pass on
the right grounds
