THRILLING EXPERIENCE
OF an Ohio Sheriff and Aids in Search of
an Escaped Prisoner.


DAYTON, April 23.-Sheriff Snyder, OF
this county and Chas. Ewing, his aid, have
been in Jackson county in search for the
escaped prisoner the notorious Patsey
OLeary. A thrilling report has been re-
ceived of their experiences. 1t seems that
the Sheriff received dispatch that o. iLeary
was hiding in the mining regions of Jackson
county. 1t is fact that the Sheriff and
Ewing hastily left here to look for O'Leary.
both being in disguise, and they were absent
five days. They proceeded to Jackson
county, o., and in working up clews excited
the suspicion OF the miners of that vicinity.
The miners finally determined that, from
the mysterious movements of Snyder and
Ewing, they must be Pinkerton detectives.
They waylaid and captured the two stran-
gers, and tied and carried them into an
abandoned mine. One hundred miners
gathered in this wierd place underground,
and upon committee of yigilantes present.
ing their suspicious Sheriff Snyder and his
friend Ewing were bucked and gagged for
seven hours, all the time under strong
guard. At O'Clock on the morning April
ID the two were united, but were kept un-
der guard of forty miners for three days
longer, then were escorted to the depot, and
then came home. The Sheriff and his
friend say it was terrible experience, and
they would not go through such an expe-
r;ence again for all the money in the world.

nial magistrate, united five couples inside
of an hour. The most notable of these
were Samuel NJ Williams and Matte Nc

ried at a late hour.
Williams was but a few days ago

five years OF age, and a short time ago was
imprisoned in the county Jail for a mis-
demeanor. 1t was then that he became
acquainted with Matte. He went TO the
Jail last night and saw Sheriff HAY and
told him that if he would release Matte,
who was serving term for drunkenness,
he would get license and marry her and
take her out West with him. The Sheriff
told him TO get the papers, which he did.
he then took her to dressmaker, bought
her an entire outfit, and going to Justice
keigwin they were at once married. They
will leave to-day for Missouri, where they
expect to live permanently
blue Wing is the woman who became
infatuated while ia the Penitentiary with
Macy Warner. the murderer recently
hanged in Jeffersonville. She made sew
eral almost successful attempts to help him
to escape.
The other elopers were couples from

one couple from Jacksonville who, inme-
diately after the ceremony, took train for
Chicago.

which he saw In Beaver street, near

footed boy was tying together some
heavy strips of refuse wood. Alter he
had fastened them as securely as his

undertook to shoulder them, but was
dismayed to find that the law of GFav-

success. He was looking at his fallea

''Over in Washington street, near

"Well," said the driver, ''you sit

The boy obeyed and munched some

often seen less kindly face than the

Ostentatious vehicle.
