STEELEvILLB, Mo-, October Ever
since 2. F. Wallace was brought here
under arrest for the murder OF the Lo-

would dispose Of his case. At the

masked men marched to the Jail

manded an entrance of the Sheriff.
The Sheriff refused to admit them and
appalled, to them to oisperss and lei

they rushed st The Jail gate, which
gave way under the strain. A guard
w0s placed at the entrance, and a few
select men proceeded to Wallaee's cell
and dragged him forth, when they

The Mothers School.

Abilene is moving in the right direct
ion in assisting to establish Schools and
Colleges within her limits. The neces-
sary arrangements have been made to
secure the Mothers school, which is a
fortunate thing for our city. The
members of the Catholic church who
have brought to successful termina-
ton their labors in procuring the
grounds and the necessary assistance,
have done their work quietly and in a
manner that is to be commended. The
citizens of our city have given a liberal
support to the school. Two hundred
and forty acres of land has been pur-
chased, on Buckeye Ave-, 2 miles north
of the Court House, part of which will
be plated, making desirable lots for
dwellings. The establishment of the
school here will bring with it many
families who will reside here to give
their children the advantages of the
school, class of people who will be a
valuable acquisition TO our city.
