RESCUED FROM JAIL.

MURDERER RELEASED AT sHAwNEETowN
BY SUPPOSED FRIENDS.
The Evansville Herald contains the fol-
lowing: Last Friday q party of masked
men entered the Jail at Shawneetown, about
halt past O'Clock, and forcibly took there
from John Winters, the man who killed
Enoch Musgroves with knife, at New Ha-
ven, last September, under circumst ances
that would have secured his conviction of
murder. It appears that on Friday several
strangers were observed in town, who made
inquiries IncerniDg Winters, rus no suspi-
ciOn was excited. About Q O'Clock 2 man
appeared at the jail, and asked it man by
the name OF Winters was confined there.
James Parks, the jailer, was absent. Mrs.
Parks told him there was. He left, but
came back again in the afternoon and asked
10 see him, but Mrs. Parks informed him
that he could not see him, as
her husband was not at home.
When he started to 90. he remark ed
that the next time he came over he would
see him. AT p. NJ. another man came and
said he wanted to stay all night. He was
informed that he could not stay. He had
not been absent longer than ten minutes
till other parties, masked, appeared at the
back door and came into the hall. At the
time it was very dark and raining. They
demanded the keys to the Jail, and said that
they only wanted Winters, and did not in
tend to hurt any one. Mrs. Parks refused
TO give upthe keys at first, when one pre-
scented
A PISTOL AT HER HEAD,
and in threatening manner, again de-
manded the keys. A little daughter of Mrs.
Parks, who was badly frightened, begged
her mother to give up the keys, which she
did. They then produced light, and while
one guarded the door OF the room in which
Mrs. Parks was then locked IL, others went
up stairs and took The prisoner from his CELL
Only one went into the hall where the cells
are, and it is thought only three were in the
Jail, others remaining outside. They
threatened to shoot her if she raised
an alarm or made any noise, and told her
that if her husband came home inside of
three hor 8 and showed himself outside of
the Jail, or made any noise, he would be
roughly used; that they intended to keep
watch. Parks returned in about half an
hour, when his wife Informed him of the
facts. He says he saw some one at the els
tern as he went in the house. No alarm was
raised until Saturday morning. His wife
and children, he says, were greatly alarmed
Winters fsther-in-iaW lives near New
Haven, and he had friends and
relatives in Petersburg, Ky, and it is
also said, near Carmi. Some think that the
party were from Kentucky, while Others
bDGY were rom near CarEnl. Inc
general opinion is that he was released by
his friends. Upon hearing of the facts in the
case, Sheriff Yost promptly took measures
tor the recapture Of the prisoner. but as yet
no clue has BEEN obtained as TO who The
parties were or the whereabouts ofthe pris-
oner. The whole thing remains in mystery.
AT the time there was hut one other prisoner
in the Jail, an old man, who was left undis-
turbed. A reward OF $3.50 is offered by the
sheriff for the apprehension and return of
Winters,

ELIZABETH AND EUNICE.

THEIR APPEARANCE IN COURT CONrRAsTBD.
The New York special of the Chicsgs Tri-
bune thus sketches Mrs. Elizabeth Tilton
and Mrs. Eunice Beecher upon their first
appearance in court, on the occasion of the
trial of the suit that shall, in a measure, set
tie the Islander in which they, with their
husbands, are involved: Dir. Tilton cast a
quick, nervous glance toward the door, and
saw two ladies and Edward j. Ovington
crossing the Threshold. One of these
ladies was Elizabeth r. Tilton; the other
was her friend, Anna NJ. Hicks. Mrs. Til
ton was attired in black silk dress ans dark
velvet cloak with black velvet
hat ornamented by an ostrich feather.
she removed her veil and glanced for mo-
msnt at her husband. Mr.. Tilton returned
the look, and then whispered softly TO
Messrs. Beach and Fullerton. The lawyers
SIMPLY SMILED
and made no answer. Mrs. TiltoD for a
time was the central figure of attraction.
She was very pale, and her mannes was that
OF timid, shy woman, who felt Ill at ease
under hundreds of staring eyes. The crowd
instinctivsly instituted comparison be-
tween her and Mrs. Beecher, and the result
was not favorable TO Mrs. Triton. III
was apparent that they were
opposite in character. On one
side was a weak, timid, sentimental
woman; on the otssr positive, determined
and, even in her old age, handsome
woman. Mrs. Beecher was cool and self
possessed throughout the proceedings. not
outstanding the bitter attacks upon bel
husbands honor. Mrs. Iilton was evi
dentlv nervous and embarrassed. Mrs
Beacher has classical face. full OF force snc
ex preston. Mrs. Tilton's face is of com
mUnplace type.

THE ANGLER.
BURRlG. HosMER.
From Goethe.l

The water rushed, the water rose.
A fisher sat anear;
he quietly his tackle throws,
His heart is COO and clear:
The while he tarries, watching there
Upward the flood divides;
Forth from the troubled waves a fair
Moist woman gently glides.
She sang to him, she spake to him:
Why Unrest thou my brood
BY human wit and human within
Hitler TO nothing good?
All, knewest thou how fishes live
so costly below,
Gladly for this than all wouldst give
Then sound and happy grow.
Does not the sun delight to lave
In ocean? Does the moon
Not re-arIse from the bilIowy grave
In heightened beauty soon?
Does the deep sky not beckon thee
The moist-irradiate blue?
Canst tnou unmoved thy own face see
Limned in eternal dew?
The water rushed, the water rose,
MOlstened his naked feet,
His heart was filled with warnings throeg
AS when true lovers meet;
She witched him on with speech and song,
lie gave the struggle Ger;
Half was he won, half sank headlong,
AND never was seen more.

RAILROADS.

GRANTED THE RIGHT OF WAY THROUGH
PUBLIC LANDS BY BILL WHICH RAS JUST
PASSED THE HOUSE IN CONGRESS.
The Washington special of the Chicago
Times OF the 18th inst. says that the House
has just passed general bill granting to
railroads the right of way through the
public lands Of the United States. The
first section governs the taking of land
for tracks and stations and materials
for the construction of the road. The
territorial legislatures are to prescribe the
methods of taking private lands. The sec
ond section provides that any railroad COM
peny whose right of way passes through any
canyon, pass, or defile, shall not prevent any
other railroad company from the use and oe-
cuPancy Of the said canyon, pass, or defile,
for the purposes of it's road, in common
with the road first located, or the crossing of
other railroads at grade; and the location OF
such rights of way through any. canyon, ETC.,
shall not cause the disuse of any wagon road
or other public highway now located therein,
nor prevent the location through the same
of any such wagon road or highway, where
such road or highway may be necessary for
the

PUBLIC ACCOMMODATION,

and where any change in the location OF
such wagon road is necessary to permit the
passage of such railroad through any can
yon, etc, The railroad company shall, before
entering upon the ground occupied by such
wagon road, cause the same to be recon-
structed at its own expense in the most
favorable location, and in as per-
feet manner as the original road;
provided that such expenses shall
be equitably divided between any number
of railroad companies occupying and using
the same canyon, pass, or defile. The fourth
section provides for the presumption Of a
right OF way by filing location, which pre-
eunption expires at the end of five years.
An important amendment offered by Mr..
Holman, OF Indiana, was adopted, giving to
future states the right to regulate transpor-
tation rates over roads so constructed. The
act doesnot apply to Indian reservations.

have pIaced nearly s25o,ooo. The figures 10 our
weekly statement show larger proportion OF
setual loans than has been apparent Tor some
time. These are mostly for building purposes
and are such as not only give employment to
idle funds, but also promise plenty OF work to
idle hands. Applicants of this class are stu
numerous. and tho greater number receive
favorable consideration. Much encouragement
has been impaired to agents, the 1ndi-
cations OF increased demand being ap-
parent enough, as those gentlemen may
generally be found stepped in bnainess'
al signs point to promising outlook the COM
iuc fall. The rate OF interest is unchanged,
per cent being tho usual figure; ranging from 8
for choice names and property, to 10 for less de-
sirab1e securities. The low rate OF interest, the
low price OF labor and material, are all IN favor
