church doors had been closed against him.
He was finally overcome, bound with ropes,
and sent to the Jail at Washington. He was
placed IN cell and left over night. When
the jailer went in to feed him, Monday
morning, he seemed to be peaceably dis
posed. The jailer ha closed the doors and
engaged in locking it on the inside, when
Collins seized board about two an one
half feet in length and struck him on the
back of the head, telling him to the floor,
after which he beat his head literally to
jelly. The jailer's wife, becoming uneasy
about her husbands long absence, went into
the Jail to see what had become of him.
Had she looked up to the top of the stair
way, she might have observed the bloody
figure of Collins awaiting her coming with a
peculiar expression of cunning in his face.
But she did not. She was engaged in lift
ing up her skirts SO they would not drag
upon the steps, and did not behold the CORY
monster until she raised her head only to be
knocked to the foot of the stairway. Collins
then ran back into his cell and locked him
self up with his dead victim. The tragedy
naturally caused a profound sensation in

A.Castle OF the "Dtspatch.
During the recent ''unpleasantness' between
Kiefer and Barney Armstrong, the Dispatch has
vehemently espoused the cause of Kiefer, very
unjustly styling Armstrong ''defaulter' and
applying other epithets and insinuations. This

exhibited his feelings by attempting an assault
| yesterday afternoon upon Capt. Castle, the
editor of the Disp4tch.
| 1t appears that Castle went to Dawsons bank
on some business, remaining there
some time in the business. portion of
the bank; Armstrong iii the meantime
being in the rear portion Of the room-ths prie
vate Office. After completing his business
Castle started to leave the bank. when Arm
strong called him and beckoned him back. Cas-
tie innocently walked back, Armstrong standing
on the floor of the private Office, which is raised
| two steps above the business floor OF the bank.
As Castle came up towards him, Armstrong,
without any words warning, let fly his foot
\ for vigorous kick. Luckily he was SO far
away that his foot only brushed Castles vest,
] without lnhlctlng the stomach-acher which lie
blow with his fist at Castle. but
again proved bad marksman and missed his
victim. Castle then seized his arms and a
scufhe of but moments duration ensued
j when Messrs. Albert Scheffar and Mr.. Hauser
interposed and pulled the belligerent Arm
strong away and the affair ended. The whole
matter transpired SO suddenly and without
warning that those present scarcely knew what
was going on until it was all over, and in fact
some of those in the bank thought Capt. Cas-
| ties intestinal arrangements had suffered Sc
verely by the kick This was mistake, as the
GLOBE reporter interviewed the Captain a few
minutes after the assault and found him en-
tirely unframed physically.
Mr.. Armstrong has been grossly abused by
the Dispatch, but this was no excuse for his
appeal to brittle force. The assault, and espec-
tally IN the covert manner adopted
will operate exactly the reverse from
aiding his cause. The argument OF
the rough convinces no one and while
it may physically damage an opponent or an
enemy, it damages the assailant, morally, very
much more. This was no exception, and Arm
strong will find he only injured himself ano
his standing in the community by his attempt
ed resort to violence. He had better restee
content with Judge Simon's vindication a
rendered yesterday. Now, he forfeits the sym
pathy which that might have produced.
