A Mysterious Cave Discovered BY A
Party of Hunters.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Feb. ia genuine
sensation was created in this State by the
discovery in Carroll county of the supposed
cave of John A. Murrell, the celebrated rob-
Der, murderer, forger, eounterfeiter and
bandit who was the terror of the western
country fifty years ago. The caveis situated
on the farm of w. G. Blair and was discov
cred by a party of hunters. When the hunt
ers first entered the cave large
number of bats and owls flew out,
many falling to the ground when the
air struck them. Lanterns were procured
and on examining the room it was found to
be ceiled with rough boards and in one cor
ner the hunters were Mortified to find the
skeleton of a man chained to the floor, sew
eral chairs, large wooden table on which
lay deck of playing cards and
beneath the table the skeleton of a woman
also chained to the floor. On the floor was
written yet plain enough to be read
"John A. Murrell, 1928" Severa. pairs of
handouts, two large knives and two dried up
frames of large bloodhounds were also dis
covered. Numbers of people have visited
the cave, but few have had the courage to
enter it.

Found out After HIS Death.

CONCORD, Mass, Feb. 13.-William Fl.
Hampton of the Union Hat company, West
vale, who died suddenly two weeks ago, is
discovered to have been a bigamist. His
first wife belonged in Yonkers, New York.
Hampton was in business in New York or
New Jersey and his accunulations were in
vested in his wifes name. He became in
volved and was unable to settle with his
creditors in full because his wife refused to
surrender any part of the property. He
was obliged to fail and he then deserted his
family In 1881 he married Miss Flora
Kimban in Montreal, representing that he
had obtained divorce from his first wife.
The presence at the funeral of his son by his
first wife led to the detection of the crime.
The second wife has abandoned all claim to
Hampton's property.

blematic costume of America gave a novel
and pleasing exhibition last night at the
Dwight strest skating rink They marched
to the center of the rink in double file,
keeping step to music by the rink band
Each young lady carried fan. Their march
ing end wheeling with fans in various posi-
tions was excellent and caused a gentleman
formerly in the regular army who was pres
ent to remark that he had often seen his
soldiers puzzled while performing the same
wheel. The young ladies circled about and
marched down the rink, company front,
without break. Their excellent vancouver
ing caused the large audience to applaud
loudly. Great praise is due Mr.. Stack for
his efforts in training the young ladies. The
drill will be repeated this afternoon and ev-

CAUGHT IN A sNOWDRIFT.
The Rough Experience of a Trai
Load of Passenpers

Hne hough Experience of Train
Load of Passengers.
ST. LOUIS, Feb. 13.-The passenger train
which left Chicago on the Wabash road last
Sunday night arrived here this morning with
as weary and disgruntled a lot of passengers
as have ever arrived at the Union depot.
Their experiences constitute a strange recital
Of suffering and adventure in view Of the
country they came through. The train was
about two hours out of Chicago when it ran
into heavy snowdrift in which the engine
was powerless. The snow was soon piled as
high as the cars both ahead of the train and
behind it and for three days and nearly four
nights the passengers were virtually prison
ers. Everything that was eatable aboard the
train was soon consumed and relief parties
of passengers and brakemen were sent out to
the farm houses which dot the prairie at long
intervals there to gather supplies. Prices for
provisions went up to a remarkable figure
and the days were long and dreary. Nobody
starved and nobody was frozen, but every
body was fairly worn out by the imprison-
ment. On Wednesday night another train
from Chicago reached the sufferers and the
two engines managed to break the drift af-
ter another day and a half of hard work

Bank Cracksmen Captured.

OscEoLA, Pa, Feb. 13.-Morgan Seely's
bank at this place entered by burglars
early this morning and the safe robbed of
81, 500. The burglars blew the safe open and
rifled it of its contents. They then drove off
in a sleigh over the line to Elmira, N. Y,
Immediately on the discovery of the robbery
the police were notified and they telephoned
to Elmira to look out for the guilty party.
The Elmira police succeeded in getting on
the track of the robbers and arrested two of
them, but not until one of the officers was
shot. It is said that there were five men in
the band. The other three are still at large.
ELM1EA, N. Y, Feb. 13.-All of the five
men who blew open the vault of Seely's
bank in Osceola, Pennsylvania, this morning
and stole $15, 900 are now in custody at this
place. Two were captured after desperate
resistance this morning, two more this after
noon and the last has just been brought in
after having been shot through the wrist by
the officer who arrested him. Two of them
give New York as their residence and two
from Philadelphia. The other looks like an
Englishman, but refuses any information.
All give fictitious names. They are rough
looking fellows. The whole country round
about was up in arms hunting them down
and there was much excitement.

A WEALTHY WIDOWS SPITE.
She Raises the Wind for a Rink Man.

ager.
LAFAYETTE, Ind. Feb. 13.-Much excite
ment has been caused within the past few
days by the sending to about twenty of our
leading society ladies of notes purporting to
be signed by T. B. Caldwell, proprietor of
the largest roller rink in town, requesting
them to absent themselves from his rink
hereafter as he wished.to maintain it's re-
spectability." Caldwell, who is the owner
of the opera house and street railroad, has
been at loss to explain the reason for the
murderous looks which have greeted his
hitherto popular person. Yesterday the
mystery was solved by the wife of leading
merchant who met the offending tinker on
the street and proceeded to upbraid him.
This was the first intimation Mr.. Caldwell
had received that such notes had been writ
ten. Investigation has developed the fact
that the notes were written by a wealthy
young widow here for the qualification of
personal spite. The best talent has been
employed by Mr.. Caldwell, who intends to
prosecute the forger to the extent of the
law. Owing to the high standing of all par
ties the interest in the matter is intense.

a ROLLER sKATER,s LUCK.
He MarrIes Wealthy Girl And
rs Arrested BY order Of Her Guard


COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 13.-Something like a
sensation was created at the Neil House here
about O'Clock this morning when guest
who registered as S. T. Wilson, of Clean, N.
Y, was arrested and taken to prison on a
charge of obtaining money under false pre-
fences. The arrest proves to be a sequel to
the marriage of Wilson, the strolling fancy
roller skater Whose right name is Sylvester
j. OSBORN, to Miss Rebecca A. HERSHEY, the
wealthiest girl in Bucyrus, O., over which
that town is in ferment. The arrest was
made at the instance of Colonel Sterling, the
girls guardian, who gave Osborn money to
find friends and collect proof of the state
ments he had made concerning himself. Col
Sterling alleges that Osborn has been spend
ing the money for other purposes and that
from information that he has received since
the marriage he is led to believe that Osborn
is bigamist, having married woman in
Coldwatsr, Mich, a year ago. The best
legal advisers here say that the charge can
not be sustained and that Osborn has still the
best of his Bucyrus adventure.

ST. PAUL, Feb. 13-The dynamite scare
is the sensation of the hour to-day. Vague
rumors have been afoat for some time that
a movement was on foot to accomplish some
stupendous schemes by means of dynamite.
It was said that the whole matter emanated
from Chicago. Monday reporter learned
that the operations, whatever the nature, ex-
tended to Minneapolis and that threat had
been made that the Pillsbury mill was to
be blown up. The rumor was hooted and
laughed at, but the reporter secured positive
evidence that there was basis for it. Letters
of warning have been sent to some of the
mill employees, among them David Roads
and Messrs. Snyder and Hoyt, all boss mil
lers. The letters were in effect as follows:
IF you wish to save your life and the necks of
others in your mill you had better quit work the
mill is going to be blown up vita dynamite before
Saturday morning.
In consequence of this number of men
quit work on Wednesday. The owners of
