nected with it would have been very easy had concealment been desirable, but your actions in the whole matter was as open and as fair as the day. When the original enterprise failed I knew with what severity the pecuniary loss fell upon you and with what integrity and nerve you met it. Years having since elapsed it seems rather hard at this late day to be compelled to meet islander in a matter where your con- duct was in the highest degree honorable and straightforward. You may use this letter in any way that will be of service-to you.

Armed With n Winchester Rife He Makes Terror i'm a Town. WELLINGTON, Kan, Sept. 14.-This city was thrown into the widest excitement yes terday morning by the sudden appearance on the streets of Frank Jones, armed with a Winchester rifle and firing into the residences
 of various citizens. Among others he stop ped in front of the house of J. M. Mckee,
 through which he fired twelve shots, smash
 ing the furniture and wounding a small child of Mckee. An alarm was quickly raised, and in few minutes the citizens
 were up in arms. Jones was mounted on a
 pony, and while galloping up Washington avenue shot William Gaines, street commits
 sioner, infiicting dangerous wound. He next discharged several shots into the house of his brother, but the family had escaped to aneighbor's. Fleeing to the country he was pursued and captured a mile from town. About week ago Jones was brought before
 jury to have his sanity passed upon. Since
 then he has threatened the lives of all who testified against him, and yesterday he was en- deavoring to carry his threats into execution. Public opinion seems divided as to his insan- ity. He is now in jail and great fear is en- tertained that he will be lynehed.
