DELANEY DOWNED.
A High Toned Monroe County
Young Man Found Guilty of q
High Crime.

Hon. Sam. c. Major, of Fayette, arrived
in the city last evening, direct from Paris,
Monroe county, where he has been assisting
in prosecuting q young man Of that town
who WIS charged with, and found guilty
of, a crime which stamps him rs a man
only in name rot in character or manly
attribstes. Mr.. M. jor wss met by BAzOO
reporter at the Hotel Kaiser, and from him
the scribe learned the following facts of the
sensational charge and trial:
Living out q few miles from Paris, is
one Of the wealthiest farmers In the
county, by the name of Wilson. His pride
and pet was a beautiful daughter by the
name Of Gsorgie. She had just steppei
over the boundary line between girlhood
and womanhood, when she yielded her
heart to youpg man by the name OF Ed
ward Delaney.
Georgie Wilson was more than passing
fair. With form more on the order Of
Vssta than Juno, moulded by n ,tule's
perfect art, 1.-the and willlwy, swdying
with unconscious grace WHEN in mo-
ton, a step light and free, hair as
foe and soft IS thistle down, eyes blue as
June skies and beamipg innocence
and trust; che ks rounded and
ngsd, "e'en as the Catherine pear,
the side that's next TO the SUM-" lips Ike a
cleft res. bud, sweet, dewey, and inviting
sses; voice full OF music, and laugh
fresh from pure virgin heart, that haunt
ed ores ears As the echo haupts the beifry,
this fair daughter, believing that the
mar she loved was of all men the truest,
san into his embraces with the rapture Of
young love, unquestior lug, but only 20
awake at last TO look forward upon a life
hlesk and desOlate, her unborn babe the
pledge of q cowsrdly miscreant's dsvilish
wilss.
And then size must needs face a court
room full of the prurient, The curious, the
lovers of scandal, to tell the story of her
wrongs and shame, for her outraged father
appealed TO Cesar for redress, and the
hand oil the l.w was laid upon the miscre-
snt who destroyed his child's pure life
The trial was a most exciting one, and
during the closing hours hundreds OF peo-
pie gathered in the temple Of in tice TO
hear the result.
There was a rather dramatic irc;dent
during the closing appeal to The jury,
which was made by Joe Rhodes, the pros
ecuting attorney, Of Monroe county. He
had been speaking some thirty minutes,
when suddenly be ceased, gszed around
upon the crowd, and then sat down, as
though smitien with some unseen but pow
erful hand. He was utterly Frustrated as to
power of speech, and could not proceed
with his argument. He was dumb, and
the judge had to order the jury out. Mr.
Rhodes said he could not account for the
strange stroke.
The jury rendered a verdict Of guilty,
and fixed Delaney's sentence at four
months in the county Jail and fine Of
300 Eleven of the jurors were for send
ing the young man to the penisentiary, but
the twelfth man said be would never sgree
to such penalty.

VERY LITTLE" replied the reporter, "but
why this opposition to Cleveland among
Irishmen? Is it on secount OF his so called
protest ant proclivities"
"No sir, as the BAZ0o once before very
truthfully stated, there is no disaffection
among the Irir h. only that which exists In
the minds of few cranks. You will find
when the votes are counted the Irish have
vot,d as they usually dc In the interest OF
the reform and good government"
A wealthy lrishmsn, and one who ex-
ponds large amount of money for labor,
upon being asked BY the reporter what be

"A few cranks and fools may. Il is

TROUBLESOME THIEVES.
The Operations Of Busy Thieves
Burglars in the City Sat-
urday night.

Notwithstanding the. many precautions
{ ken by citizens OF late 10 gusrd against
the inroads Of the willy sneak thief, he con.
tinues to get his Sork in, for the MI st part,
however, with but slight success. Quite a
number of at empts to burglsrize resi-
deDces in riops parts of the city we're
made Saturday night and early Sunday
morning.
The officers are confident from the buns-
ling manner In which these robberies, what
may in maj gritty of cases be denominated
attempted bUrglsries, have been committed
BY local thieves. In view of this state oil
affairs, the mayor has very properly issued
an order to have the vagrant law strictly
enforc, d.
Following is the record of attempted
burglaries to date:
At CONDUCTOR NosHER's
Bold thieves visited, the residence oil
Conductor Mosher on East Fifth street be
tween 8 and 9 o'clock Saturday evening,
and effected an entrance by way of the
front windows. They distracted a two
dollsr Bo!e which wss contained in a little
box 10 the work basket on a small tab'e
near the window. Before they had time to
pursue their explorations further, the
thieves were frightened away by the
screams of young lady in the house, who
had heard their stealthy movements.
AT HENRY NAsoNHALLs.
The busy burglar put in his appearance
at the residen, e of Mr.. Henry Masonhall,
on Sixth street between Brown and Sum-
NIT, some time Saturday night, and was
frightened away while in the set of cutting
one of the window screens, Mr.. Masonhsll
being awakened by the noise.
AT t. t. CLIFFoRD's.
A thief with more than ordinary cheek
caIled al the residence of 7. T. Clifford, at
the northeast corner of Sixth and
Wash ngton avenue, Saturday after
noon, and entering the front
yard where the children were
at play, started boldly through
he hall, but fed precipitst"ly when one of
the little ones gave The alarm. Sunday
morning Mr.. Clifford discovered that one OF
the sls's of his front blinds had besn cut
out, but beyond this did not notice tn It any
attempt had been made to enter the house.
The probability is that the would be bur-
