would state thst he had no connection
whatever with it.........The private
Indebtedness Of Mr.. HickOx. President
Of the suspended First National Bank,
is variously estimated at from one to
two hundred thousand doIIars. We
can scarcely belive it will reach either
of these amounts, but We have
no means Of learning the correct
statement. He has certainly succeed
ed in barrowing great deal on bis
private paper, and from present in
dieations it will not pay ten cents
on the dollar. Many poor people

.........Marshal Lemon arrested three
runaways on Saturday, from Johns
town, Pa, named VIM. Stouffer,
Ruth Gore and Lizzie Wakefield.
What William wanted with two
women We do not profess to know,
but the father of Miss Wakefield, who
is a minister, evidently did not ap-
prove of the business, and telegraph
ed to our marshal to overhaul them.
The party was captured on an Allan
tic and Great Western train, and con- |
fined at the Barnard House until the |
arrival Of pdter fdmilids. Stouffer |
was the youngest one of the runaway |
party, being but about eighteen years
old and had no doubt been led of by
the girls, who it is said, We're after
some members Of the Helen DeEste
troupe, which recently performed in
this city. Their failure to reach the
troupe before their arrest has prOba-
bly, saved them from ruin and life
Of shame. The father took the whole
party home with him on Sunday
