The Davenport Herald has the follow
ing il regard to the arrest of two of our
toughs; Wesley Reddig and Bill Bur
ton, two well known Rock Island peniten-
tiary birds, were arrested in that city last
night for little Job they did on this side
OF the river on Tuesday night. They
broke into a smoke house in East D,ven-
port on the night mentioned and stole
two or three hams which they carried
across the river in sacks. Chief Kessler
went over to Rock Island this forenoon
to see il the chaps would come over to
this side of the river for trial 1t is
thought that the twain may know where
Mr.. L. G. Dcssaints harness and lap robes
are, Stealing harness is Burton's favorite
business, and he served term in the
penitentiary for it.

Last weeks wonderful Sun
set PaBOra in;lS.

The fiery appearance of the west
ern sky after sandown. which ex
cited much attention and wonder
ment in all quarters of the world
last year, has recently again become
conspicuous phenomenon.
Thursday evening in particular
the skies giowed with sp endid
shades Of red and crimson, and so
brilliant was the display that some
persons thought that a great fire
was raging. Long after the sun
had disappeared a lurid red light
hung over the horizon. while the
d:rkening heavens overhead re
fected a faint tinge of pink. Sim
liar displays have been witnessed at
intervals ever since last winter, and
they are due to the same cause
which produced the astonishing red
skies a year ago is rendered proba
bic by persistence of another phe-
nomenon which made its appearance
at the same time with the original
red glows. This is the halo that
can be seen surrounding the sun on
a clear day, and which has not lost
any Of ltss intensity during the
twelve months that have elapsed
since it was first noticed.
1t is a singular proof of the lack
Of atten ton paid to some of the
appearances of nature, even by

of mental anxiety. He is defended by Judge
Claypool and B. F. Watts, while the State is
represented by Prosecutor Brown and Assistant
Prosecutor Robbins. The evidence against the
prisoner is almost altogether circumstantial but
is regarded as convincing. No intimation was
made yesterday of the character of the defense.
Comparatively little trouble was experienced in
getting jury. special venire of forty had
been ordered, but was not nearly exhausted, as
ten of the regular panel were retained. The
following gentlemen compose the jury: Alex
ander s. Stanton, James Nj Apple Henry G.
Gibson james Albeit Oliver johnson, James
D. Hartman, Elijah W. McYey, Samuel McFar-
land, Eenry K. McVey James Bloomer, jr., A.
J. Snyder, William G. Hartman. Almost all the
afternoon session of the court was spent in ex-
amining Sheriff Hess and Superintendent Lang,
who arrested Korner and collected the evidence
against him. The case will probably be con-
cluded on Thursday.
