the third or t uvth time lie has gotten
ready to start the whirr of honest industry
at Harper's Ferry, but something always
occurs 10 burst uU Tie hum about the time
he gets thirgs ready to start. First he had
a man cut in Texas who wanted to start q
cartridge belt factory there, but he got
tired OF waiting on the Government and
went nti and started q shoemaker shop.
Then the PcsS Sewing Machine Company

one for the reason Congress ouSh: not 10
direct the solicitor specially in this case
than in any other where he is called upon
to dispose OF idle and useless property be-
longing to the Government, bat wilson
saws the solicitor seems 70 be overly timed
in this particular matter, and that the
propertv has already lain too long as
burden on the town and an eye'Sore to the
neigh bOrhood.
The facts in the case seem to be that the
site does not amount to much for manutlC-
turing purposes. The water power on the
Shenandoah side has been pretty cIiectuai'
ly destroyed by freShets and that on tue
Po,oma, is in bad state OF decry. Steam
has so largely supplanted water power in
large manufactures that the greater feiia-
biity OF the former is pretty well esta6-
lisled, and the lEar?er's Ferry property is
not yery conveniently selected with refer
puce TO coal or markets. The sooner the
Government gels q correct idea o. its value
and let's it 20 to parties who will utilize it
for any purpose, at whatever it will bring
the better for all parties. AS it is only

calamity like the ore in Illinois recently

the doors OF the convent were broken open
and the place invaded by firemeu aud pro.
fesscrs Of the college adjoining. Many of
the students in the college rushed forward
and gallsntly offered their services. They
were al Iieus 20 get inside the convent and
dirt with the nuns. The Lady Superior
met the young men at the entrance, how
ever, auj closed the doors in their faces
There are qUIte enough men in here al

DFs MONIES, IOWA, PEOPLE EXCITED
Over the Finding Of Young Mans BODY
in the Dissectng Room of Medi-
cal CoIIege-Qhio Parents
Shocking Cruelty.

SYCAMORE, Ill, January l0.-There is
great excitement here over the develop.
ments in the grave robbcries which have
recently been brought to light. w. J.
Shinkle and man named Waterman were
arrested yesterday for completely in the
robbery Of Mrs. Hoyt's grave Her body
was removed to Chicago medical college,
where it was found by the detectives.
Shinkle and Waterman were given hear.
ing before Justice Rogers. The waived ex-
animation and were committed in $500 bail
to await the action OF the Grand Jury.
Although abundantly able to secure bail
they considered it safer to go TO Jail.
Another shocking case of grave robbery
has been discovered at Rochelle, and the
belief is that it was committed by the par.
ties under arrest. Sheriff Wood, while
looking for Mrs. Hoyt in the Chicago col
lege, found the body of young woman
which he believed was stolen fron this vi
cinity. He sent a man to Rochelle TO make
investigation. The first grave examined
was that of Mrs. Craft, an old school mate
and friend of Shinkle. The grave was
found TO be empty. Hall and Coifey, the
other men under arrest for the HOyt grave
robbery, were discharged by the States at.
torney, as they only acted as teamsters in
driving the body from the depot TO the coll
ltge. They have given evidence, however,
which will lead to the conviction OF Shin
kle and Waterman. 1t is thought that
many other graves in the vicinity have
been deseCrLted, and thorough Investiga-
tion will be made

has been here for several days past he re-
ferred 10 the West Virginia law governing
The Challenging Of jurors in criminal cases
as being altogether iusU iiicient to properly
protect TIE interests o. the State. AS il
stands the only psreUDtory challepg's IS
allowed are gwen to the prisoner, he bein :
allowed eight, while TIE State is only al
lowed to challenge for cause. The result is
that any friend of the prisoner who
will swear that he is not related to
the de.eEdant and has moi mace up an
opinion in the case is allowed to sit if he
can mansge to be placed on the panel, and
where special jur'es are ordered the latter
is by no means difficult of accomplishment.
Mr.. Hutchinson thought that with these
and other advantages under existing Jury
laws, ana with the privilege Of testifying
IN his own behalf and having the benetit OF
his wite's testimony in many cases, there
was agrowing probability that convictions
IN capital cases would ultimately become
impossible. As it is hanging as a punish
ment for crime seems to be pretty efTectu
ally played out in the State. In the case
referred to Robinson, the defendant, shot
and killed the town marshal of Maiden,
a little village in the upper end OF
hahawha county, in pursuance OF delber-
ate threats to that end. His business, which
consisted mainly of selling whskey with
out license, hau been broken up by the
Mayor and Marshal of the town, and he
openly announced his intention OF killing
both. He waited his opportunity, met his
victims on the street, aud, with the remark
I'll take you first shot the Marshal,
killing him instantly, and followed up this |
exploit by firing at the Mayor and intlict. |
~ z dangerous, but not fatal would. The |
first jury which tried the case sentenced |
the prisoner to be hung but new trial |
was secured on technical grounds, the jury |
being more carefully chosen in defendants |
interest bring in verdict Of murder in the |
second degree, and it is openly asserted |
that but for the excited state of pubic |
feeling over the case verdict of acquittal |
,ould nave been secured.
