A Baltimore County Mans Singular
Prank.-The Belair 1Egis of last week SAYS: "On
Tuesday of last week, as Mr.. Harry Jarrett, of
Jarrettsville, was driving in a buggy near Black
Horse, man dashed up behind him on horseback,
leading another horse, and planting himself in the
road, barred Mr.. Jarrett's progress. Mr.. Jarrett
asked the stranger to move out of the way, when
he replied Il won't until you give me $780, Mr..
jarrett thought the man was jesting or was drunk,
and finding that he still refused to get out of the
way, he alighted from his buggy, and was about
to take hold of the strangers bride rein for the
purpose of leading his horse to one side. The
man thereupon placed his hand behind him as
though about to draw pistol, saying, as he did
So IF you put your hand on that bride will
shoot you His threatening attitude and words
frightened Miss Laura Nelson, who was riding in
Nj. Jarrett's buggy, and she sprang from the
buggy and screamed. Her screams brought sew
sersi persons to the scene from Black Horse AS
they approached the man rode off. It was ascer-
tanned, afterwards, that the man lived near Here
ford, Baltimore county. 1t is supposed that he
was either drunk or crazy"
On the same subject the Belair Democrat says:
"Tuesday of last week as Mr.. Henry Jarrett and
his cousin, Miss Laura Nelson, were returning
from Black Horse to Jarrettsville, they were over
taken and passed by Howard Vance, a horse dealer
from Hereford, Baltimore county. Vance refused
to let Jarrett and Miss Nelson pass and demanded
$50. This they declined to pay, when Vance re-
duced his demands to $3.50. Hall Hildt came
along about this time, when Vance, finding he
could not enforce his demands, moved out of the
way. Messrs. Jarrett and Hildt were before the
Grand Jury Tuesday last and laid the information
before that body"

Two grangers from the Ridge took sleigh ride

a loud red wrap or robe in the sleigh, and made
a grand "charge, sir knight" completely demol-
ishing the basket body of the sleigh. Their host
loaned them sleigh, which broke down when
they were about halfway home, compelling them
to finish their trip on horseback.
The Ridgers are preparing for an oyster supper

brought to Towsontown, was carried back to Wa
verify and placed in an upper room of the station
house until arrangements could be made to bury
him. But such good opportunity to turn an
honest penny could not be resisted, and some time
during the night his body was taken out and car
ried to some medical college, where it sold for
something like $500. well known county Of
fetal of the village was rendered share of the
proceeds derived from the saIe but he respectfully
declined. An investigation of the matter will most
likely be made at an early day, when the guilty
parties will be asked to explain their connection
with this high handed piece of business. Abraham

AFFECTS VAST INTERESTS.

The Proposition to Relocate the
Bells COmpany's Sorting Works.
Special to the Globe.
EAU CLAIRE, Sept. 9.-The proposition
made by workingmens' and business mems
committee to the directors of the Dells I'M
provement company, for relocation of the
company's sorting works, is gaining friends.
The committee will submit the argument
that, by placing the works far enough up the
the river so that they will be above all the
mills which raft lumber, there will be no
opposition from up-river mill-owners, be-
cause there can thus be no detention of
RATS from above, and it will remove the
ground for complaint which has caused an
up-river company to threaten a suit for
delay of RATS. The opposition which
would be expected from down river
would be obviated because, at the
point proposed, the logs could,
with two forty-foot gaps and swifter water,
be sorted three times as fast as at present
and there could be no delay of logs destined
for the Mississippi river. No proposition
of greater import to the lumber industry of
this region has ever been made. and it af-
fectS a vast array of interests on the Missis-
sippi. 1t is believed that new era in the
industrial development of Eau Claire will
be at hand when the impartial and prompt
distribution of flags to all the mills and the
transfer of the Dells water-power to the city
shall have been accomplished. 1t is claimed
that the magnificent mill of the Pioneer
Lumber company, now in the hands of an
assignee, and that of the Sherman Lumber
company, which has been swallowed by the
Chippewa Logging company and not oper-
ated at all this season, would both now be
running and giving employment to thou
sand men. if the mills named could have
had the logs to which they were entitled.

occupants of the granary were armed to
the teeth, aud it was unsafe for any one to
approach them. Yesterday morning. how
ever. the sheriff and his officers made an
other attempt to enter the granary, where
upop George Hillock discharged load of
buckshot into the crowd, wounding the
sheriff and one of his deputies. The Off
GERS returned the fire from a number of
revolvers, one ball striking George Hillock,
penetrating the head above the left
ear. 1t is supposed to be lodged in the
brain. Two doctors were Immediately
summoned to the scene, but we have not as

HiIlock became unconscious shortly after
being shot, and his recovery is hopeless.
The others in the building surrendered at
once when they saw one of their number
fall. The sheriff and deputies were only
slightly wounded.
