s'Gath'' Of the Cincinnati En-
quirer, gives the following pen-pic-
ture of Guiteau, the 'sstalwart of
the stalwarts - sssHe looks to one
like a low Frenchman-like one
who would steal or eat dressed
meat, or espy the police in both di-
rections whenever he came out of
his house. The eye has in it the
confession of a spirit with serious
intentions, yet no province of work
OR application. His nose is short
and broad. His forehead is rather
low, but broad, and his ears stand
out stubby and belligerent. He is
such a looking man as you might
expect to find some night fumbling
in your bureau drawer for valua-
bles, who would first stop to ex-
plain that it was a mistake about
his being there and would next try
to thrust an knife into you If ne
found you had him in a corner" :"
From which we infer that Guiteau
is very sunpretty'' man.

Case says little Ches. was tucked IN

of the future President were just
too happy for anything. The place
Of Arthur's birth is Fairfield, VT,
so says Mr.. Case, and we Suggest
now that the next man who ex-
presses any doubts as to his natit-
ity be slapped in the mouth, and
that Mr.. Case be appointed to the
consulship that Guiteau didn't get.
It's plain Case that Case wants
something.

The assassin, Guiteau, hes
published in the New York Her
aid a biographical sketch Of him
self in which he says:
My only object was to remove
Mr.. Garfield, in his official ca
pacity as President of the United
States, to unite the Republican
party, and save the republic from
going into the control of the reb.
els and Democrats. This was
che sole idea that induced me to
remove the President. / appre-
ciate all the religion and senti-
ment and honor connected with
the removal. No one can sur
pass me in this. But ! put
away all sentiment and did my
duty to God and the American
people.
There is q base partisan
method in such madness as this.
70 Guiteau the murder of even
such a man as Garfield was moth
ing compared with such q calam-
ity as permitting the control OF
the government to pass into the
hand of ''rebels and Democrats. .
In committing his great crime he
declares he did his "duty to God
and the American people" Yet
there are people who pretend
that he is insane.-[N. O. City

TELL THE STORY OF THE CRIME FOR
WHICH THEY ARE NOW IN THE

of train robbers, Cox, Delany ant

good spirits, and take their sen
tence coolly. All of them appear
like the average country boys
Cox and Monroe are printers, hay.
ing worked in a printing office al
San Augustine, Texas, prior to the
robbery. Delaney, in an interview,
relates the story of the robbery in
substance thus : ''We are all poor
boys, and live at San Augustine.
We have good relations there, and
hope they may never hear Of our
disgrace. All of us were in love,
and the girls loved us. We had no
money, and did not see how we
could support them if we married.
We were determined to get mar
ried, and so laid our plans to get
money. We read about the James
boys in papers and books, and saw
how easy it was to rob a train and
get away, and decided to rob a
train. We left home three weeks
ago. yesterday, coming direct to
Arkansas. After robbing the train
we did not think that we would be
pursued. and we were going back
home with our money and there
marry our girls and settle down.
We had no accomplices, and we
planned the whole thing ourselves.
We got only eight or nine thousand
dollars in cash from the express
company, the balance being in
bank checks. Monroe and I kept
the bulk of this, and all of it, with
The exception of few dollars, was
o l. = - - -->-s~,f, rod us
and I hope they will be sent to
keep US company. / am sorry we
failed to get away, but we acted
like parcel of fools after we got
the money, and SO we have no one
to blame but ourselves"
C. c. Moore, one of the men
who captured Monroe, ana Delany,
says the report of the captors rob-
bing the robbers is untrue. He
further says the money was divided
for safety, each person agreeing to
take a like proportionate sum, and
that they have already turned over
to the express company $7,250 of
the money they took from the rob-
bers.
