PreIler's Murderer i'm Custody.

The steamer City of Sydney, from
| Australia, arrived at San Francisco last
Monday morning with Sydney advices
under date of May 81, and Auckland,
New Zealand, May 26. The Auckland
papers contain an account of the arrest,
on May 25, of Walter H. Lennox-Max-
well, alias Theodore Cecil Daugueir,
charged with having murdered Arthur
Preller in st. Louis April 5. The ar
rest was made by the United States
Consul, Gamble, who received a tele-
gram from the Chief of Police of St.
Louis with Instructions to that effect
Two days later Consul Gamble receiv-
ed telegram from the United States
Secretary of State authorizing him to
make the arrest. Two detectives board
ed the steamer at Tirjtiri. The purser,
in reply to their questions. stated that
there was a man among the steerage
passengers bearing MaXwell's descrip-
ton. He was summoned on deck. The
first question asked him was whether
he was a physician. He promptly de-
MED this, saying that he was a native
of France and an officer of the French
army. The detectives informed him
they had a warrant for his arrest and
would have to take him into custody.
Maxwell appeared to be disconnected,
but recovered his composure while the
officers were Handwriting him, coolly
remarking that the whole matter was
mistake, which would be quickly ex-
planned away.
On May 9th he was taken into the
police court and the charges against
him read. The Crown solicitor an
peared for the prosecution and Messrs.
Napier and Burton for the defense
The latter claimed that the court had
no jurisdiction, and, after some argu-
ment, the case was remanded to the
7th, after which it was again remand
ed to the 18th. On that day the case
was brought up. Consul Gamble was
the first witness called. He testified
on behalf of the prosecution as to the
various articles found in Maxwells
trunk which, among other things,
contained two embroidered handker-
chiefs marked &C. A. P" and shirt
with two large spots OF blood on it.
In reply to question as to how the
articles, not bearing the initials of his
name, had come in his possession,
Maxwell said they had been given to
him in San Francisco by man named
Robinson.
Detective Twohey, one of the two
who arrested him on the steamer tes-
titled to finding the following articles
in Maxwell's grip-sack: Thirty-four
cuffs, two handkerchiefs marked &c.
A. Pr memorandum book marked
Danger; pocket medical dictionary
in which was written w. II. Lennox
Maxwell, NJ. A. D., F. A. r. G. S., and
a dressing-case marked w. HI. Lennox
Maxwell. All of these articles Max
well said he bought from the same
man, Robinson, in San Francisco.
Counsel for the defense, at this point
of the proceedings, again commended
that the court had no jurisdiction in
the matter and asked for dismissal.
The case was then remanded to May
Is. On that day it was remanded to
the 23d, and again on that day to the
3Oth. Judge Smith who is hearing the
case. stated that he would remand the
cese eight days at time until the Of
ficers from st. Louis arrived.

Pennington Times: LAST Tuesday
morning Sheriff Rage aud Deputy
Sheriff Bean of Cape Girardeau county
arrived here with negro brute who
richly deserves death, and lodged him
in our Jail to escape lynching at the
hands of an excited people in that coun-
ty. The negro, whose name is Jack
Johnson with two or three aliases, on
the I'd inst. made half dozen or more
attempts to outrage several women
and one or two girls in Cape county, in
several instances leaving the marks of
his brutal fingers on their threats. He
was pursued by an enraged party of
determined men, but managed to elude
them and escape to Illinois. Sheriff
Rage, however, succeeded in having
him arrested and delivered on this side
of the river. The people were prepar-
ing to give the beast warm reception
at or on the way to Jackson, but the
sheriff outgeneraled them and spirited
him off to this county for safe keeping
and legal trial. A big strapping ne
gro who is in Jail serving out a sentence
on the rock pile, being told of the of
tense of the new occupant, and that
mob from Cape county might attempt
to take him out and lynch him, said:
Look here, boss, don't let 'em make
mistake and take dis niggah.'"

would like to ask the good citizens of
Manchester, more particularly I appeal to
all virtuous wives, how long will virtue be at

women living in open shame with married
men who have families-yes, innocent little
girls whom they forsake to riot with those

ter here now than it was the 1st of Ap ril
last year. The land in Benjamin is in
fine condition. For a week past some
of the farmers have been busy blowing
and sowing grain. There are some signs
of grasshoppers. Cattle and horses gen
orally look well. l have not heard of
any losses, except one OF two very old
horses.
L am glad to hear that General Bris-
bin, Yice-president of the National
Stock Growers Association, is expected
to be at Salt Lake City at our conven-
ton in April next. By report of the
executive committee of the Cattle and
HorsesGrowers Association at ST. Louis,
at their meeting, the 18th of February
last, Secretary Atwater was to start
west the last of February to attend the
stock meeting. I think we may look
for him to attend our stock meeting on
the I'd Of April next. 1 think there
will be a great many attend the conyen-
ton. There is more interest taken by
the people generally since the organiza-
ton of the Cattle and Horse Growers
association at st. Louis, than ever
before. l would like to know if the
stockmen as well as the farmers are in
favor of a Territorial fair, to be held
some p~laeein Utah next fall. S.

His Success

Financially and socially, are largely due
to his excellent health. If his system
were clogged and feverish, no doubt he
would fail as so many others do. But
why not enjoy good health when one
can please the palate at the same time?
Syrup of Figs is not only pleasant to
the taste, it also cleanses the system
thoroughly, yet p~ainlessly: it is harm
less in its nature, and strengthens the
organs on which it acts so that regular
habits may be formed, and the sufferer
permanently restored to health and
happiness. Sample bottles free and large
