A Preacher and a W0ll a n
Wrestle.

Near Strongtown, Indiana county,
resides a married lady who is cham
tion in the wrestling line. The other
Sunday, after church services, the
minister accompanied the family
home, and when the dinner dishes
were put away the conversion turned
on the ladys ability to throw any
person she had ever seen. The
preacher is quite powerful gentle
man, and he proposed to wrestle with
her. In ten seconds he was stretch

bones in the wrist was fractured by
the heavy fall which she gave him

him into the chief oratory, desired him
to pray for them, and then withdrew.
After this, Mahomet went out OF the

History Of an Infamous Crime.


WILKEsBARRE, Pa, May 8.-The
high sheriff of Luserue coooty, Will
ham P. Kirkendsll, has just received
the death warrant Of Andrew Lenabsn,
who is 10 be executed on Thursday,
June 81, between the hours of ten
O'Clock in the morning sud .Wo O'Clock
in the afternoon. The murder of which
the prisoner was found guilty is one of
the most horrible in The record of crime
of this State. 1t occurred on the after
noon of September Is, 1874, wren
benahan invited Captain John neiley, a
well known Democratic politician, VITO
was on bis way home from the Luzerns
county Democratic convention, to q seat
in his buggy.
Captain Reiley accepted Lenahan's
invitstio and took sea. ic the vehicle.
While :bey were riding along towards
Ashley, just below that city, Lsnaban
drew large revolver and fred three
shots at his companion, killing him III
stsntly. Lenahan's horse became
frightened BY the reports of the revoI-
yer and started off upon run, the jar
causlng Reiley's body to fall forward,
the legs hanging out over the side of
the carriage body. As soon as Lena
ban could obtain control Of the animal
be drove off at furious rate, but while
going over canal bridge be collided
with heavy wagon. His buggy was
upset and Lenaban and Reily's body
were thrown out into the road Lena
han picked himself up and ian away
Three bullet marks were found upon
Reiley's body. one over the left eye
one in tse right side Of the breast, JUS
over the nipple, and the third and last
ball passed through the left arm. The
murdered man was very highly respect
ed, aud bis brutal murder caused the
greatest excitement throughout this Sec
ton. The most strenuous efforts made
for Lenahan's arrest met wit. no sue
cess until the latter part Of October of
the following year, when he was arrest
ed at La Sale, Ill where be was work
ing in the coal mines uuder the name of
bis murdered victim, Kelley.
He was committed to The county jail
at this place on November s, 1875 He
was indicted aud tried at the next term
of the Oyer and Termiper. and found
guilty of murder in the FIRST degree on
December 27. At the last session of
the Supreme Court Of this State his
case went up on a writ Of error, but
that body confirmed the judgment of
the lower court. Lenahan was a noto-
riously hard character, and has ira yeled
under several aliases. He will be
hanged in the rear of the Jail yard.
