Some days ago the store Of Shook
Brothers, Coalton, was burglarized,
and quite an amount of property in
the way Of watches, jewelry, &C., tax
en-. Shortly after this two young
men, Warren Champlin and - Kel-
sey, lit out, and Detective Sol. Ship
ley, of Macarthur Junction, was tele-
graphed by the Shriff to arrest them.
They were arrested by other parties
at Vinton, Gallia County, on a charge
of carrying concealed weapons, and
fined. A charge of being tramps was
afterward filed against them, and they
were taken to Gallipolis and placed in
Jail. This was on Friday evening,
April 5th. They remand in Jail at
Gallipolis until Saturday noon, when
they were released on a writ Of ha-
beas corpus. Shortly after their dis
charge, Detective Shipley arrived in
Gallipolis, in search Of them, but they
had crossed the river. In company
with Marshel Schenck, Shipley start
ed down the river and crossed. They
pursued the young men to West
Columbia, where it was found that
they had gotten off Of the boat at
Cheshire. Shipley headed them off
at Pomeroy, and caught them in the
road between Pemeroy and Gallipolis.
He placed them in Jail at Gallipolis,
and afterward brought them to Jack
son.
Champlin has seen the inside of a
Jail before, he having been confined
here some months ago as one Of the
parties who shot Richards, near Coal
ton.
Champlin and his companion were
discharged there being no evidence
upon which to hold them as the gull
ty parties.

How Watch Gases are Made.

The many great improvements intro
duced in the manufacture of the Jas. Boss
Gold Watch Case, have led to similar i'm
provements in the making of silver cases.
Under the old methods, each part of a
silver case was made of several pieces of
metal soldered together, requiring great
amount of cutting and soldering, which
softened the metal and gave it the pliability
of lead rather than the elasticity of silver.
Under the improved methods, each part
of the Keystone Silver Watch Case is made
of one solid piece of metal hammered into
shape. The advantages are readily appar-
ent, for every one knows that hammering
hardens the metal while soldering softensit.
To test the superiority of the Keystone
Silver Watch Case, take one of 8 OF. weight,
press it squarely in the center when closed,
and it will not give while case of same
weight of any other make will give enough
to break the crystal. The Keystone Silver
Watch Case is made only with silver cap
and gold joints.

Beating The Coroner.

A few, days ago there was a row at
dance at the residence Of Van Cas-
sells, at Berlin. In our rush of bust
ness last week, we neglected to mention
this matter. At first it was only a
rumor, and as the Coroner was not
notified, nobody seemed to pay much
attention to it. But it panned out
more seriously than at first supposed.
In the fuss, Cassells shot Philip
Hunter twice, inflicting wounds from
which Hunter died next day. Cas-
sells Immediately fled, presumably to
West Virginia. Hunter was buried
on Sunday, without any notice having
been sent to the Coroner. Grant
Watkins, a participant in the fuss,
was wounded, and arrested, and is
now in Jail. This wound, it is claim
ed was accidental. Watkins is we be-
lieve, the young man who recently
returned from the Penitentiary,
whittier he was sent for burglarizing
Milton Furnace Store.
This is an indication of depravity
which we very much dislike to see.
AS long as white Kentucky Demo-
Gratis kill one another, as in the Fra
ley case, one can stand it. But if the
colored men go to numbering one an
other, it will be sad indeed. A mar
was heard to remark in town. on the
night of the election, that he could
get Cassells, but he was possibly ro-
mancing.
Grant Watkins was taken to Berlin
for preliminary trial on last Wednes-
day, was bound over to Court and re-
turned TO Jail.

BLOODY FIGHT I
How Charley Watson Avenged His Faith
Gr'S Wrongs!

On Friday morning a bloody fight
took place in the alley, near Smiths
stable, between two young colored
men named Charles Watson and Will
liam johnson. 1t seems that the
young men have been watching each
other for some days. Johnson, a few
days ago, struck William Watson,
father of Charles, and bruised his
head somewhat. For this he was ex-
pecting Charles to attack him, and
on Friday they .'got at it.
johnson claimed that he was stand
ing in the door of the stable when
Watson commenced on him, and he
walked into the stable Watson Sc
cured a mattock and pursued him, but
he aimed to get out of the way.
Finally they got into fight, when
Watson threw johnson but could not
keep him down. Then he struck
Johnson with rock, cutting an ugly
cash upon the top of his head.
johnson drew a jack-knife, and
while opening it, Watson kicked at
him, knocking the knife against John
sons hand and cutting it. When
Johnson got the knife open he struck
Watson in the breast bone, making a
cut that would have been dangerous
had it been a little to the right or the
left. Watson took to his heels, John
son pursuing him. He caught Wat
son and stabbed him twice in the
back, making severe but not neces-
sarily dangerous cuts.
DIR. Kitchen dressed Watson's
wounds, and DR.. Jacobs performed a
like service for johnson, who was af-
terward arrested by Sheriff Cheering
ton, and placed in Jail.
The worst looking feature for
johnson is that he pursued Watson,
after the latter ran.
johnson was brought before Mayor
James, on Saturday, and bound over
in the sum of 5000.

To the Editors of the Standard:
Enclosed find $1.00, for which send
me the Standard another year, as we
can not do without it, as it gives us
the home news, and is an interesting
paper in every respect.
l saw in your last weeks paper
about teams coming into Jackson
doubled up-that is, four horses to a
wagon, and also two horses hitched to
the tongue and front wheels. l have
seen something like that myself there,
and it is terrible I will just say to
the citizens of Jackson county who
are opposed to turnpikes, if they would
have been here in this county during
that wet weather, they would have
seen and realized the benefit of a
turnpike. This county has pixies run
ming nearly all through it. There
are but very few mud roads in it, and
they are being piked every year. The
pixies here have been in tolerably good
condition all winter and spring. There
has not been any time that ordinary
loads could not be drawn any where
with two horses, and they are all free
pixies. [ think if large amount of
money that is spent unnecessarily in
convicting murderers and criminals,
and great many other unnecessary
things, was used in building good
roads, it would be much better for the
citizens Of Jackson County.

"JUDGE LYNCT

nv AOAAN AAOAA WV AAASS ~ ~ANo
Standard for April, 1854, shows that
they used to have mobs in Jackson:
JUDGE LYNCH.
"This we'll known and severe jurist
had occasion to visit this place on
Saturday night last, to deal out dou-
BILE punishment upon one of the col
ored chaps Of this neighborhood. 1t
appears that he was caught purloin-
ing pies and cakes from the Isham
House, for which he was ducked in
the creek, and afterward tied to tree,
and lashed severely with horse
whip"
But the mobs Of those days only
applied to colored men. While the
colored man was mobbed for stealing
a pie, white thieves might run long
time without danger Of bodily harm.
"Mobbing Niger" used to be one
of the institutions of Jackson. The
grand march Of the Republican party
has changed all that, and placed the
colored man on an equality with his
white neighbor.

The Democratic State Convention
Of Pennsylvania met at Allentown on
last Wednesday. In the platform
adopted is this plank:
"Third-We believe that the cleo
toral frauds of 1867, by which S. J.
Tilden and Thos. A. Hendricks were
cheated out of the offices of President
and Vice President, to which they
were fairly elected, was the most dead
ly blow ever aimed at our system of
representative government"
Perhaps it will be fair to suggest
that the kicking out Of that Demo-
cratic fraud, Tilden, was not so deadly
blow aimed at our system Of govern
ment, as was the aim Of the Southern
shot-guns that gave Mr.. Tilden's
claims a coloring. Mr.. Tilden and
his party sought to gain control Of
the Government through murder, and
failed. That is all there is of that
1876 business.
