MURDERER KILLED.

We learned last evening from Mr.. Henry
! Loop, driver OF the Minden stage, OF the
killing of young man by the name of VIII
| liams in Webster parish. 1t seems that
several days ago the sheriff of Webster. Mr.
Collins, received a dispatch from the author.
ties al Delhi, La, giving Il description of an
old man about sixty years Of age and his son,
named Williams. charged with committing
murder in that vicinity, and also description
of the horses fhey were riding and requested
| him to be on the lookout tor them. On sun
day Williams and his SON came through
MInden and were recognized by the telegraph
repaircr by the description of their horses,
who notified the Sheriff. That officer inn
meiary summoned posse and started in
pursuit Of them, and after riding about six
miles west of Minden they came up on the
TWO horses tied near the roadside but could
discover no one, until they began to approach
close to where the animals were hitchcd,
when tie father and son. who had concealed
themselves behind s.lnc stumps, opened frc
on them.
80 sudden and unexpected was The attack
that some of the horses of the shcfills posse
became Interchangeable for a few seconds
However, the tire was returned and yonny
by this time the ammunition of the pursuing
party was well nigh exhausted, and after the
killing of his son old man Williams stepped
into the middle OF the road and opened fire
with six shoo.er and forced ms pursucrs To
fail back To a house about a half Il mile dis
'an,, where they went 10 repcnish their stock
Of ammunition. While they were .one the
father aIpsoached the dead body of his sou,
I'm l. ont ~
blood which was cbbing from hi, wounds,
crosse his hands over his breast, aud taxing
ms pistol. from oil him kissed him an a.Icc
iionate adieu All this occurred in about hals
an hour. A posse Of sixty men were nj once
summoned aud started in pursuit of old man
Williams but up tn midnight Sunday they
had not heard of him.-ShICrsp0u Times.
The above account is incorrect in several
particulars. The old man spoken of was
Geo. Ellison, " no killed John T. Young some
time since at Delhi, instead of Williams and
the young man was his yeungcs, SON in Justice
to whose memory, as well as surviving
relatives, we deem it our duty to state that
he was not murderer, nor was he accused
of any other crime that we have heard Of
unless it were a crime for him to be engaged
in assisting his father to escape the officers OF
the law. The char;ably disposed will not
consider it in this light but will give the
young man the credit of being actuated by
the strongest ties of flial affection
We have seen the account given by the
Mnden Democrat and converseu with citizens
of Webster parish, and their statements cor
roborate the remainder Of the Times state
mcnt in the main.

Il GANG OF HORSE THIECES.


Illinois oiiicsis have recently discovered
one of the mos, extensive and formidable
bands of horse thieves ever organized in the
West, and several of the leaders have already
been arrested. 1t had long been known that
such gang existed, but nothing definite coud
be asceriained until last Saturday, when
William Twedall was arrested By vigilance
committee at Kirksvllc, Mo- on suspicion Of
beng one ui the thieves. Iwedall made IA
confession showing that the operations OF the
gan. extended through Illinois and Missouri,
and that several persons heretofore of excel
lent reputation were implicated. Among
them ere Two men named Richmond amt
Lowe, who are respectable citizen, Of Havana,
Ill. Lowe Is a preacher, ami recently got
zap a revival meeting which his COnfederates
la crime attended 10 steal horses. Both Lowe
and Richmond have been arrested and are in
Jail at Havana
The oiiciaIs are IN possession of the names
less he arrested AZ once II they do not succeed
in escaping from the country. The leaders If
the gang were located IN Kansas City, Kinks
vile, Havana, Quincy, amt rher towns
through Illinois and Missouri, and between
the varou, places there were operators whose
business was to transfer horses rapidly from
one point to another
Il, sides hor>ethievcry, there are crimes of
robbery and forgery against the gang, whose
operations, II appears, have hardly been cx-
cclled since the days OF Murreil.

TITO OF FER ACCIDENTS.
The Result Of Earthquakes a. Sea on Ships

The earthquake theory promises to be a
great a convenience to navgatOTS as TO nov
elists Of the California school. The officers OF
the Pacific Mail steamship City of San
Francisco contend that AT the time of the
earthquake that destroyed lquivue on the
Peruvian coast there was an upheaval of the
submarine reef on which the vessel struck.
The naval oticnrs at Acapulco entertain the
same theory, and the entire, on the log-book
of the United States steamship Lackawanna
in the same harbor are cited in proof of the
assertion that there were a great many big
tidal waves with ;rouyhs behind them about
the time the steamship was wrecked.
This view is confirmed indirectly by an
account which the Spectator publishes of the
wreck of the steamship Knight Tcmpar
under similar conditions in the Gulf of Tuni,
The ship did not strike tie rock; nay, the
rock struck the ship; and il must have been
a rock from submarine volcano, for the YES
sci wa, alta distance Of ten miles from the
nearest known group of rocks. The shock
was accompanied by a rumbing noise AMI by
a seethng of the sea into white foam all round
the ship, and though the ship was not stopped
in her course, she soon began to till, and had
To be steered TO the island of Galita, where
the captain ran her on shore in shallow
place.-N Y. Tribune.

RICHES AND REASON.

The experience Of the late Mr.. john DAILY,
of this city, who got riches but lost his reason
and committed suicide, points moral for our
TIE. The case of DIR. Aver, the well known
millionaire who is in an asylum for the insane,
furnishes commentary on the failure which
some men are making by their appetite for
money. There are scores of similar cases
of insanity caused by a too intense applca-
ton to business. Brains are of more account
than bank notes, even In this world, trulhfuly
says the Christian AT Work. and it is never
wise to risk ones head 10 accumulate a
property for other people to quarrel over
Scieatifc american.
