A FINE TINE
Given Those who Attended the -. T..
L.. society.

Last evening a full house greeted the
b. f. j. Society's entertainment given in
the parlors of the Congregational church,
and the programme met with the APP
probation Of each one present, as was
manifested by the hearty applause.
The Duet by Misses Stanly and Mar
tin was rendered in a pleasing and skillful
manner. doing themselves credit as mu-
%sic;ans.
The vocal solos were finely executed by
Miss Kingsley, Mrs. Pratt and Miss
Perry. Miss Kingsley delighted the au-
dienee with a splendid selection in her
cultivated style and fine soprano voice,
while Mrs. Pratt sustained her well
earned reputation as singer. and Miss
Perry sang a pleasing peace and responded
TO an encore.
The reading by Mr.. Mason was one Of
ths gems of the evening.
The Rotations by Misses Frost and
Quinby were indeed good, and received
with applause.
The instrumental solos were rendered
by two of Cheyennes talented musicians,
Miss Dubtidge excited the admiration of
all with a spirited selection, while Miss
Parker gave evidence of her ability in a
difficult but pleasing piece.
The closing piece, the broom drill,
capped the climax, and those taking part
did their work to perfection. Miss Helen
McCrum as captain was in the right
place, while Misses Baker, Taylor, San
ders, Stanley. Gillian, Duffy, Martin and
Bullock as soldiers did their part in grand
style, being in perfect drill. They re-
sponded to encore, and then, but for
fatigue, the audience would gladly have
had them gone through the drill a third
time.
The members of the society return
thanks to all who assisted, as well as to
those who attended.

The Benders Recalled.

Mrs. Willis Williford, widowed lady
OF Athens, lost her youngest brother at
the hands of the Benders, who figured
so prominently in the annals of crime
few years ago. This young man liv-
ed in Kansas, about forty-eight miles
from the Benders, and taking with him
several hundred dollars in money, he
started for the frontiers with the in
tention of specializing in land. He
travelled in a two-horse wagon, and it
seems that on the second day he reach
ed the cabin where the Benders ran a
hotel and sort of saloon. He was alb
sent so long that his family grew I'M
easy, and instituted search for him,
but the missing man could not be
traced beyond his second days travel
" hile the Benders were looked upon
as bad characters, nothing criminal
was known against them, and hence
no suspicion of foul play at their hands
was entertained. 1t was year and a
half after his disappearance that sever
al travellers stopped at the Bender
house, among them a lady, who was
put to sleep in an upper room with a
small window overlooking an orchard.
During the night she was aroused by
some noise outdoors, and looking out
saw several persons burying an object
The moon gave pale light, and to her
horror she discovered that the parties
were interring human body. She
was near enough to hear what they
said, and discovered from their CONVEX
sation that they had just murdered one
of their guests, and intended to attend
TO the lady next She was thoroughly
frightened, but managed somehow to
escape into the woods, and make her
way to the nearest settlement, where
she told her story. A posse was at
once organized, and started for the
scene of the murder, but the Benders
had evidently gotten word of their dis
covery and only a vacant house was
found upon the arrival of the officers.
The romantic escape of these criminals
Is too well known to be related by us.
They have never been captured, and
doubtless escaped for good, although
numerous reports OF their capture and
death have been published. In search
ing the house trap-door was found
near the bar counter, which was sprung
when stranger stepped upon it, throw
ing him into a dark cellar. Here he
was knocked in the head by the father,
while his daughter would cut the vic
tim 5 throat with a knife. The BODY
was then buried in the orchard, and the
spot plowed over so as to obliterate all
signs of grave. In this orchard was
found the bodies of ten grown persons
and one child, all with their skulls
crushed and throats cut. Mrs, Wilt
ford's brothers body was recognized
by the color of the hair and garment
buttons, although it had been eighteen
months since he was buried. Athens
