There were two buried, said the old
man.

There is no use saying there was no
bedroom in the houee, said Hoohan.
i WAS in the back room,' said the old
man.
you couldn't see into the peach orch
ard from the back ROOM
But / seen them in the grave next
day. the old man said.
How could you zee them; they were
covered up. Did you take the dirt of?'
the herder asked,
They were only six inches under the
ground, the old man said.
That's lie; you can't see six inches
under the ground, exclaimed a Mr.. Shed
who was listening to the conversation.
The old man then confessed he help.
ed to bury them, and burst out crying,
and exclaimed. I don't care =; let
them hang me and be damned
On being told he would have to 60 to
Kansas, he swore he would not 90. He
said he would go anywhere else, and
would kill himself before he would go
there.
Hoof IN then went and saw the wo-
man. She began laughing when she
saw him. When asked if she knew
hi Il she answered, yes; l do know him.
How do you do, Mr. HutfanP' (the name
she was wont to use. l never expected
to see you any more. [ don't want to

She was asked where the other child
was buried, as only one of the two chill
dren was found. She asked Hoohan if
he remembered where they dug up DR..
York's body, and which way from him
the child was found. He told her, yes
She said the other child was buried in
the southeast corner of the garden. She
said they had come back from the In.
dian country and were going over to
Missouri. Kate and young John Ben.
der were with the teams taking another
road They were to meet in Iowa, and
then some one of the party would go to
Kansas and dig up 500 they had buried
there on the old Bender place.
There would seem to be no farther
room for doubt as to the identity of the
prisoners, and that they are members OF
the original Bender family. No legal
investigation has yet been had, and this
must be awaited before the world will
be satisfied, that the monGter butchers
of the age are at last in custody. The wo-
man claims she is not Bender's wife;
that the latter was lefr when they went
through the Choctaw nation in 1873, be-
cause she could go no further when the
team was abandoned. She thinks the
old woman died in 1876 HooAan's de.
sCription of the old Bender place agrees
perfectly with that Of other persons that
have been there.

indications are that Hancock has ma

tween Perkins and Richard for Assess
sor. The vote polled in this precinct
fell far below the registered vote, and

Then seek not to climb. Another's pain

To tempt my hasty hand to do wrong
Unto fellow-man. This life hath woe
Sufficient, wrought by mans satanic foe;
And who, that hath a heart, would dare prolong

That seeks some healing balm to make It

Or on his fellow lays his superstitious ban.

An incident which took place on
the Central Road on the evening of
Monday week should be made gene
rally known, as a warning to thought
less young men who amuse them
selves with firearms. Mr.. Francis,
estates engineer recently arrived
from Antigua, was driving past the
Diamond School when he heard a
pistol shot close behind him. On
looking back he saw some young
men in a cart, and observed the
smoke produced by the discharge;
but did not know, till after his arrival
at Carlton, what a serious danger he
had escaped. It was then found that
the shot from the pistol had penetrat-
ed the back of the phaeton, passed
through one of the cushions, and
lodged in n Of the ribs supporting
the hood. On enquiry on the fol-
lowing day it was found that the
offender was a saddler named Heyli-
ger, living in West End, who was
returning to his home, and fired the
shot, as he said, as a salute to the
teacher at Diamond School. We
suppose the teacher feels highly hon
CURED, md the saddler must feel
thoroughly ashamed Of his folly and
of his subsequent appearance in the
Police Court. Playing with firearms
may be followed by more serious
consequences than those which pro
verbally wait on playing with edged
tools, and we hope this case may
help to stop such rashness.
