knpll's Case.

The arrest of Mr. Ed Kneli, of Car
thuge, Mo, for violating the internal rev
rnue laws, was a surprise to bis many
friends in Moline and Rock Island, as it
could hardly be believed that he had in
tentionally committed fraud To ascer
tain the true status of the case, his broth
er, Mr.. c. G.. Kncll of this city, tclc>
eraphcd to Carthage. In reply he re-
ceivcd II letter yesterday morning, which
threw an entirely different light upon the
affair 1t seems that about last August
Ed kuell was offered SEQ worth Ct cigars
for one of his hunting dogs by II New
York man, and he accepted it, lie then
turned over the cigars to II local dealer
taking other goods in return. Some sneak
then complained on him, and he was arccs :
ted as stated United States Attorney Benz
ton took him before ,Iugde kregCl of Kan
sasCity, where statement of the trInsac-
ton was made, and the court advised Mr..
kncll to plead not guilty and stand trial
when the case would come up at the May
term next. Mr.. Kncll, however, preferred
to plead guilty in order to avoid the in %
convenience and expense Of going TO
Kansas City again in May, and the court
had no other alternative but to find him
guilty, which it did to the extent or So
and costs. Ed Knell represents c. G
Knell interest in the large furniture estab-
lishment of kuell e. Howenstein, at Car
thagc, and is a gentleman who would not
violate the law knowingly.

A New Gauger,

Mr. Arthur Burial has received notiti>
cation of his appointment as gauger in
the place of Col. II. B. Burgh, resigned,
The appointment came through Collector
Kelly from Secretary OF the Treasury
Manning, and today Mr.. Burial forward
ed his bond to Washington for approval,
with Messrs. Porter Skinner and L. W.
Hurst as surcties. He will probably enter
upon his new duties the first of the year.
Mr.. Burial is one of the prominent dem-
ocrats OF the city and county, chairman OF
the Jefferson club, and has severed three
terms, and is at present holding the office
of assistant supervisor. Very few changes
are being made in the treasury depart
ment, and it is no, likely that an appoint,
mcnt would have been made here had not
Col. Burgh resigned.

cold weather having set in early this morn
in e with intense severity and sending the
mercury down to six below, up town. and

A Strange Sound.

From Messrs. HALEY, living near Unity
church, We learn that ON FRIDAY morning,
about 3 o'clock, while the SUI was shining
bright Y in cloudless sky, the people
were startled by hearing two explosions $50
c!oe together that perhsps to many they
seemed as one), followed by a loud and
continuous roaring that lasted for fully one
minute. 1t was heard at Coats Prairie,
Readville and Montgomery City. The
noise sounded like the roaring of thunder.
The people concluded that some great dis
aster had occurred. So far as We know the
sound was not heard in Fulton, and we
cannot account for ii. They seemed TO
b. gin in the southwest and travel 10 an
easterly direction. The general impression
seemed to be that great meteor was pass
ing and that il was invisible on account Of
the glare of the sun. Judge Dyson, of
Nine Mile, tells us that he also heard the
strange Cdlldudy Gdzette.

Poisoned Baking Powder.

Cole Camp, Mo, August 19.-[Special. J.
Peter Rock, a well-to do farmer living
on what is known as Balkey's prairie,
bought of q neighboring store what he sup
posed to be can of baking powder. The
can wss plainly so lab led. His wife last
Saturday used some of 1t in making some
cookies, and while yet warm, broke one 10
two pieces and gave one to a boy four years
old, the other to girl of two years. The
boy ate all of his, the girl about one-third
of her piece. Both soon sickened and
vomited repeatedly. The boy lived four
hours. Yesterday at four o'clock the girl
was alive but hopelessly sick, the slightest
movement exciting commissions.
Some of the neighbors very naturally
suspicioning poison gave half cookie to
dog and it killed him in half an hour :;
the ether half he crunbled up and fed to
flock of chickens. twenty of which died
from the effects of l..
The poison was no doubt put in the
baking powder can for some purpose and
accidently sold for the genuine article
These facts sre not developed. No foul
play is suspicioned. Only carelessuess can
be assigned as the cause of the sad affair.

DRIVEN TO DEATH.
The Latest Charge Against
Rev. Jardine.
He is Accused of an Attempt
at Suicide.

Kansas City. August 19-[Special -
Great excitement prevailed on the Mis-
souri, Pacific train from st. Louis last night
when il became known that X v. II ID.
Jsrdine had either tried to commit suicide
on the train or had accidentally taken an
overdose of some kind of ana.thetic. The
episode occurred about twenty five miles
this side of st. Louis and it was some
hours before the gentleman was restored to
consciousness.
The passengers were thrown into a stale
CT wild excitement when they b.held a
clerical gentleman in an unconscious s. ate
and it became noised shout that he had
taken a deadly poison. The conductor
struggled for long time, with the aid OF
some passengers, to bring Father Jardine
back TO consciousness. AS nearly as csn
be ascertained the gentleman had become
very much incensed and DISCUS ed at the
conduct of the psssee gers. who eyed
him closely and lau. he'd about him. The
Post Dispatch, which wss read by a number
of people on the train, contained an inter-
view with Jardine entitled, "An Apostle
o the Spankistry." There was an audible
demonstration among a number OF COM
mercisl men when they read il, and some
uncomplimentsry remarks relative to Jar
dine were made. 1t is supposed th,t q
suicid i manis over ook him, or that if he
uses chloroform as a stimulsnt he took an
overdose 1t seems that he mana ed, when
be Was unnotioed, to inhsle half of an
ounce bottle of Squibbs chioroform He
soon became unconscious add put his fell
low passenger into state of the greatest
excitement 1t took almost half an hour
before Two gentlemen and the conductor,
with all possible efforts, could restore him
to consciousness. Searching In bis clothes
Conductor Merryman found the vial, W hich
was just half emptied. The label bore the
following inscriplion:

asked what inducg d him to take this d. ably
potion, Jardine answered that be was suf.
fering from insomnia and he was in the
habit OF using such au@sthetics. The pas
sengers, as well as the conductor and por-
ter, kept watchful eye on him, and were
glad TO get rid Of such troublesome pas
senger.
A reporter met Jardine soon after his
arrival. To his question if Jardine had
any unpleasant occurrence while in ST.
Louis, he answered that he was on a visit
TO friend, and had become accustomed TO
abuses.
"What induced YOU to partake OF ehloro-
form last evening ?" asked the reporter.
81 have no answer to give" replied the
clerical gentleman, smiling ironically.
