Hon. II. NJ. Prince, of Williamson,
has left at our Office samples of his Golden
and White Dent Corn, which are very
fine. Mr.. Prince made over one hundred
bushels of this corn last year, and says
he is convinced that it is the best corn our

men tried to catch the animal, but being
unwilling to get in reach of its heels, al

element it ran against buggy with u
horse in it, knocking the buggy over and
throwing gentleman ont. Several per-

There has been considerable complaint
made by the citizens of the lower section
of the County about the tardiness of the
County Commissioners in replacing EN-
merson's Bridge, which was washed away
some time ago. We have inquired into
the matter, and find that the fault is not
with the Commissioners. They gave the
order for the lumber more than q month
ago, but never received it until few days
ago. The bridge Is now being built, and
will be ready for the public in few days,
possibly by Saturday. The new struct-
ure will be very substantial bridge.
The Commissioners say thoy regret the
delay very much.

THE ANARCHISTS.
John A. Henry, KidGloved Agitator, Placed
Behind the Bars Of a Station House.

CHICAGO. May 19-John A. Henry, who is en-
ployed on a morning paper as a compositor. and
whose incendary utterances since the arrest Of
Spies and other Anarchists have given him an
unenviable reputation, was arrested TO- day while
engaged in distributing call for a demonstra-
ton which it was intended should take place on
the lake front on Sunday afternoon next The
call declares private capital deprivation of the
people, and concludes with the assertion: "An-
archy is not violence; it Is only the promise of
peace Henry was somewhat extensively at
tired in dark suit and silk hat, and his hands
were encased in dressed-kid gloves When
taken to the Central station he was very dem
onstrative, and endeavored to convince Lieut.
Shea that the Haymarket attack on the police
was justiiable.
There will be more bombs thrown" he coolly
exclaimed; ''this thing is not ended by any
means. The present laws are damnable."
An examination of Henry disclosed the fact
that he not only believes in anarchy, but also
advocates free love in its most repulsive and I'M
natural forms. He was confined to cell, and the
proposed demonstration, if attempted, will be
promptly suppressed.

CAUGHT AT LAST.
AL Kerr Arrested for Murder Committed IN
Robbing Street-Car in October, 1884.

The old saying that murder will out" oftou
meets with al verifcation. One OF the myste.
rious murders of this city was that of All Muhle
man. on the night Of Oct l, 1884. whils
returning from call at the house of SQUIRE
Glass, near the stockyards. He was killed
without warning, while standing in the front of
the car, talking to the driver, Thomas Pavey.
His murderer was a slender. beardless youna
man, who had beckoned the car at the Nordyks
g. Marmon works. All efforts TO detect the
murderer, have been, up to LAST
night seemingly fruitless. A burglar
named Charles Diggs was arrested few
days after the murder and some street-car tick
cts Were found on his person, but the car-drivers
Pavey, failed to positively identify him as ths
murderer
At IL o'clock last night Patrolman Schwab ar
rested Al Kerr for the murder of Muhle
man and took him to the sta
ton house where he was locked up.
1t now turns out that a convict named Lock
horn alias Charles Havens, who was sentenced
to fourteen years in the peniAntiary, in Febru-
airy, 1886, for attempting to rob
car and shooting car-driver, meas
Schmidts brewery, made confession
soon after going to Michigan City. in which he
said that he and AL Kerr had planned
to rob the car on the evening mentioned
Muhlemann. He further stated that the shoot
ing Was done by Kerr. Soon after Lockhorn's
arrest, and before he made the confession. Kerr
left the city, and has been gone since. until
Monday last, when, as he says, he returned.
and has been staying at his fathers
house. No. CD Gregg street He says he has
been in Cleveland, New York. Chicago and
other places. The police have been trying to
track him since Lockhorn's confession. Last year
a man was arrested in Chicago, in answer to o
description of Kerr and a request for his arrest,
but proved to be the wrong man. Until last
night the police had no knowledge that he was
in the city. Patrolman Schwab however, while
standing at the corner of Illinois and
Washington streets, recognized him
while passing and placed him under arrest
Kerr showed some alarm at first. but said he
knew the police had nothing against him. or he
would not have come back. AT the police
station he gave his age as twenty-one
years. and put a very bold front. His
confidence, however, seemed to be largely as
sumed. He asked that word be sent to his
father, an old and respected, and at one time.
wealthy citizen. Kerr is well-known in police
circles. having frequently been before
the courts here 1t is thought
that during his absence from the
city he has served term in the Ohio Penitenti-
airy. The means of identifying him are still at
hand, as Thomas Pavey, the driver of the car on
which Muhleman was killed, and who distinctly
saw the murderer, is still in the city and in the
employ OF the company.

ST. LOUIS, May 19.-The furniture manufact-

resolved, in order to avoid a strike among their

solved to return to work on the plan Of ten

company renewed operations.
