A rural correspondent who

ask: isn't thero any way could
make poetry without having the
rhyme at the end Of the hnes?
Wouldn't it excity by its novelty
Of the rhymiug words we're put
next to the last word or tie be-
ginning Of the lines?'
Simon you have run up
against an old snae. Your dose
OF divine atiiatus has curdled your

you, but from surface Indications
We infer you propose something
like this;

But she found him very -inexperi-
Though he loved the maiden-desper-

He was over laiden-qulto with his

Or perhaps this is the idea:

THE OUTRAGE ON MISS ALDRIDGE.
William N. Price Placed Under Arrest and
Held on Bond for Hearing.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
NATION, ILL.,, Feb. 27.-Detective William
Baldwin, of Macoupin county, this evening ar
rested William N. Price, at Windsor. on the
charge of having committed the outrage of at
tempted rape and hanging Miss AL
bridge. on the 18th of February.
Price has been suspected from the first but
none of the local officers cared to make the
arrest on the evidence they had. Baldwin says
he feels confident that he has sufficient evil
dence to prove his man guilty, but
he will not make it public till preliminary ex-
animation can be had, on Monday Price was
placed under two-thousand dollar bond, which
it is thought his friends will sign. aud let him be
released till Monday. The detective had Price
copy the letter found in the room where Miss
Aldridge had been left during that evening, and
the similarity Of the hand writing is said to be
striking. The old feeling of indignation and ex-
element which was aroused by the outrage was
awakened again by the arrest, this evening,
and great majority Of the citizens
believe they have the right man. though all seem
disposed to act coolly and await the preliminary
examination. which will probably occupy two
days or more. Price is cool and stolid,
as he has been from the first,
and denies everything He presents logged
appearance, and seems to look with suspicion
upon all who come in contact with him.
Miss Georgia Aldridge is not yet able to walk
without assistance, and complains of injury to
the lower part of the spine, where she pos
sibly fell upon the pile of bricks when
the moose with which the villain had
hanged her body up broke and let her fall. The
top of her head is yet sore from stunning blow
she received on the night of the outrage.
Her father is almost frantic with
indignation, and believes Price guilty.
1t is difficult to tell what might be done should
sufficient facts be developed TO prove the case
conclusively, but this will not be attempted till
the preliminary examination is concluded.
