ARREST For RAPE.-On Tuesday afternoon
week, about oue-fourth Of mile from Benton S
Ferry, a young man named Newton Arnett
assaulted Mrs. George A Wiley-a lady who
lives not far from the city-with intent to COM
nit rape The woman's cries attracted the
attention Of Mr.. H. c. Morris, who happened
to be near, and upon his interference Arnett
fed-before he had accomplished his purpose,
though not until the woman had been serious
ly injured in his hands Arnett was arrested,
and upon a preliminary examination before
Esquire Jacob S. Hayden Of this place, he was
held to bail in the sum of $500, to appear be-
fore the next term Of the Circuit Court, for trial.
The required bail was furnished, and the priS-
oner was released. - PIirmont Vest Vrginian.

Still @ Mystery.

Independent Of the efforts that have been
made by the Mayor Of our city, and Mr.. Frank
Mantz the Superintendent of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad no clue whatever has been
found to the Identification of the unfortunate
man who died so suddenly last week at the
Frederick Junction. His remains were placed
in a vault in the old Lutheran graveyard on
Friday morning week. Itappears very strange
that nothing has been heard from any quarter
regarding the mystery The ring which he
wore at the time of his death should lead to his
Identification as we stated last week it had
upon the inside the inscription Uncle Joe y
1866. We think it would be an act of charity
to his friends and relatives if eur exchanges
would publish the following description Of the
deceased He was FIVE feet SIX inches in
height; Of fair complexion, sandy hair, very
light sandy mOustache, and slight imperial /;
was a little huuchbacked, aud was dressed in
full suit of black cloth had handkerchief
with the name Of C. NJ. Waldmau on it.

The Surrender of the Apaches.

SAN FRANcIsco April 2O.-DetaiIs of the
peace conference at Camp Verde, Arizona, on
the 9th of April, have been received tonight.
The conference resulted in unconditional SUBJ
mission and the surrender OF two of the worst
bands of Apaches Peace was brought about
through complete rout Of the bands of Apa-
ches who have defed the government for
twenty years past. Over two hundred OF
their warriors have been killed in the last
campaign in the Businesses Of the Apache
country. The council opened at $50 o'clock
A. NJ. "Crocky," Mojave Indian, was the
interpreter. The war chief of the Tonts Apa-
ches, with one hundred and fifty men, women
and children, joined the council and the war
riors gave ND their arms when the talk began.
The Apache chiefs were the first speakers
They all acknowledged their complete defeat
and expressed their desires General Crook
replied briefly, accepting their surrender. The
chiefs promised to send word to all the outside
Indians ia arms to come in and surrender
Gen. Crook promised to issue passes for the
protection Of the runners to be employed in
spreading the news Of the peace. When the
conference broke Up the vanquished Apache'
went up the river to the old military post
where feast was given them.
The general policy will be to treat the lndi'
ans humanely, place them on reservations
make them no promises that cannot be fulfilled
to maintain order among them and instruct
them in simple duties, thus proving to them
that peace is better than war.
Gen. Crook in his general orders commend:
by name long list Of officers and soldiers FOL
gallantry in the last campaign.
