AN ABDUCTION CASE.
The Gay and Festive Major Carman
I'm Trouble.

tEEl '''" o..
We clip the following from the Steu'
benville Herald d Nsws Of Wednesday
evening, which, from it's sequel, will
have local application:
Lower Market street seems to be the
seat of the sensation OF the season.
The last two or three items OF a lively
interest have been to chronicle from
that locality, and this morning witness
ed still another. 1t appears that re-
Gently nan who registered himself a.
W. Hawkins. and perhaps forty years
of age, came to this city with young
and beautiful girl Of about sixteen sum-
mers, from Wheeling, W. Va, and has
since been living With her at the Union
Hotel registered W. Hawkins and
daught The girls brothers
have been hunting her for
some days in Pittsburgh, thinking
that the parties had gone to that city,
but failing in their errand come here
to-day and discovered the parties at the
hotel mentioned. Hawkins proper
nameis VIM. C. Carmau, who was horn
in this city, aud who formerly served as
Major Of the First Virginia cavalry
during the war, and was brave, ener'
getic soldier; was wounded once or
twice in the cam paign. The girrs name
is Miss Emma Spidel. and claims that
she lett home on account Of abuse re-
ceived there. Major Carmao claims
now TO be acting in the capacity OF a
private detective, and that as this girl
claimed his protection, and could be OF
use to him in certain case he was
working up, lie bad taken charge OF
her.
"Wheu the brothers first arrived at
the hotel the accomplished and hand
some Major Carmsn eluded them and
escaped by the back way from the
, building at rate Of speed that Weston
| might have euvied. The girl hastily
started out up Market street, but one OF
her brothers caught her, and she re :
ssting he finally drew . revolver and
threatened to shoot, but bystanders
here interfered. The parties returned
to Wheeling this morning on the
steamer Forest City. except Major Car
man, who remains in the city"
Yesterday afternoon the gay and les
tive Major mounted on a Handsome
charger was riding up Market street
and ne rides well, he was stopped by
officer Bob Junkins who informed him
that he was wanted at Squire Giles
pies office, as Nicholas Speidel OF the
Sth ward had sworn out a warrantfcl
his arrest, on the charge of abducting
his daughter. The Major dismounted
from mis- fiery eteed and in .
very polite aud courteous manner
said he was ready to meet any such &C.
, cusatiop. He was taken before the
Justice after supper, but owing TO the
absence OF important witnesses on be-
hal of the prosecutor, the hearing oil
the case was postponed until this after
noon at four o'clock. The Justice held
Csrman in the sum OF $1,000 for bis
appesrance at that time, but as be
could not procure bondsman, he wa'
committed to Jail, where be will have
time until this afternoon TO think over

AN INGENIOUS AND USEFUL INvRN-
r1oN.-Our attention has been called
to very useful and ingenious milking
pail, with straiper attached, manulac-
tured by Mr.. Conrad Schambra, timer
No. 1893, Market Square, for which
ne has taken out letters patent. Ii
consists of four pieces, viz: Cap or
cover, straiuer, funnel and pail. The
i'm portant part and in which the inven-
ton consists, is the straiuer, which is
placed at the bottom Of = conlcal shap-
ed top, whose upper circumference just
fits inside OF the pail, when il issdes!red
to strain the milk when milking. II
rot, the strsiner 10 removed and the
pail used as any ordinary bucket Al
ter one is throug b milking the strain
er with it's top Is inverted AMI placed
on the pail. The cap, which resem-
bles the cover of tea canister, is then
placed on top OF it and the pail is then
perfectly close. On arriving in the
kitchen or at the dairy, the strainel
can be removed and placed on what
ever vessel it is required to straln the
milk into. Fit is desired to store the
huid in vessels with small aperture the
funnel is used to advantage.
To be thoroughly understood and ap
preciated, it must be seen aud all its
workings examined. We feel condden
that no one who has COW will b'
long without the model milking pail.
Mr.. Schambra deserves great credit
for inventng and perfeciing so valua-
BILE an adjunct to the dairy, and it IL
but reasonable to presume as 1t be-
comes known, that he will reap a rich
harvest for his time and labor.

which has been goiag the rounds OF the

it played out. 1t seems singular that
such Aimsy affair could take in and
do for anybody; but it has, and Of
course the men most unlikely to be
chsrgeable with an offensive act in any
way were generally selected as the VIC
tins. They bit like CARS after a rain,
somewhat after this fashion:
Smith met Jones. Says Smith to
Jones, Have you seen Tom Collins ?"
mo. Why? Who is Tom Collins :"
"Well, l don't know much about
him, but he has been saying some very
barsh things about you" and so on,

the same stories, and really Jones

the oitener they were repeated, without
denial from Jones, the more people

A Small Beg Shot and Instantly

A Small Boy Shot and Instantly
Killed.
LAST evening, about quarter to
seven o'clock, one of those accidents
which are constantly being chronicled
by newspapers all over the country, &C.
CURED in the Sixth wsrd-the result OF
carelesspess In the use OF firearms.
The circumstances are as follows:
At the above stated time a young
man named William Maxwell, a con OF
Daniel Maxwell, who lives few miles
up Caldwell's run, was returning from
q hunting expedition, and while
going down Chspline street, and when
near Hamilton's old foundry, be met
q lot Of little boys playing in the vicin-
ity. Just az Maxwell passed with his
gun on his shoulder the boys COM
menced hallooing after him and saying
that they would give Maxwell "leave
to shoot" at them. Maxwell turned
around, took his gun from his shout
der, cooking it at the same time, and
was in the act Of putting i: in position to
point at the boys. when to his horror
it went off. The shot was a deadly
one, a boy named George Schatzinger,
being tn. victim. The bullet entered
his body just below the
neck passing entirely through
his body and coming out at his
back. A half dozen persons saw the
shooting, some Of whom ran and pick
ed the little fellow up and carried him
to his fathers house, who lives nearly
opposite the foundry, but he had
breathed his last before they got into
the house, dying almost instantly.
The affair created great deal OF ex.
citeme ut in the neighborhood, the cir
sumstances OF the shooting not being
known. The father OF the boy was in
a frenzy with excitement ana sorrow,
and thinking his boy was murdered
went before Squire Forbes and swore
out q warrant Tor the arrest OF Max
we'll. After the arrest jury was en-
pauelled to hold an inquest, which re-"
sulted in the discharge Of Maxwell. In
the testimony Maxwell eaid he was not
aware that the gun was loaded, he being
under the impression that he had dis
charged the load before leaving the
woods. The jury returned the follow
ing
VERDICT.
At the inquest held at the house OF
John Schatznger, in the county OF
Ohio, on the llth day of June, 1874,
before Geo. Forbes, Justice OF the Peace
of Webster district, in the said county
OF Ohio, upon the view OF the body OF
George Schatzinger there lying dead,
the Jurors there sworn to inquire when,
who, and by What means the said Geo
Schatziuger came to his death, do say
the said George Schaizinger came to
his death by the accidental discharge
OF a gun in the hands Of VIM. Maxwell.
In testimony thereof the said Justice
and jurors hereto set their hands.
George Forbes, Justice OF the Peace !;

Marsh, Loreny Walther, L. W. Steph-
ems, John Strobel, III. A, Albright,

Young Maxwell was naturally very
much affected by the cad occurrence,
and during the time he WAS in the
Squirrels office sobbed and cried as II
his b cart would break, Nobody doubts
that the shooting was accidental.
