Rascally Attempt to Murder a Family at
Richmond, Iud.--A House Partially De-
molished.
RICHMOND, IND, April 15.-The dyna-
mite fiend came near getting in his work
early this morning, by attempting to
blow up frame house in which were Mrs.
Jesse Craig, Mrs. Hewitt and the latter's
four children. Mrs. Craig is separated
from her hus band and lives with the
Hewitt woman, who is also q grass
widow. Enoch Craig attempted to see his
wife, but failed, and left muttcring ven
geance. Mrs. Hewitt was seated on COM
mon wooden chair near table, Mrs. Craig
was by the stove and three children In
bed, whom q sudden loud report shook the
building and the floor under Mrs. Hewitt
surged upward. 30 great was the jar
that the window-panos crashed, the stove
fell, and Mrs. Craig was pitched forward
to the floor in semi-con scious condition.
Tho chair on which Mrs. Hewitt sat was
split as II by a blow from an axe, and she
was knocked senseless. Tho bed on which
the children sleep is in an adjoining
room, twenty feet from whero the explo-
sion took place, yet it was broken and
racked, though the children escaped
unhurt. Mrs. Hewitt was hurt about
the side and arms and Mrs. Craig slightly
bruised. Police investigation showed that
O dynamite cartridge had been placed in
the cellar, and touched of from o fuse
leading to the door, ten feet away. A big
hole was burrowed in the earthern floor
and considerable debris scattered about.
Several persons are suspected Of doing the
work, among them Enoch Craig, and ar
rests will probably be madc in the morn.

PRIDGEON's COFFIN.
The Evangelist's Wife Objects to
it's Being Taken Home,
hut the Eccentric Old Preacher Carries
His Point.

ATLANTA, GA, April 11.-Dr. Pridgeon,
the man who preached his own funeral
sermon near Athens last Sunday, has had
trouble with his family. After the ser.
mon was all over he desired to carry the
coffin home with him and put 1t away un-
til such time as its services should be re-
quired. His wife, who had quietly borne
all Of his foolish whims up to this time
asserted her authority and declared that
the coffin should not enter her house
until there was some cause for it's
presence. She was so firm that he per-
mitted her to have her own way, and IL
was carried to neighbor's house, where
permission to leave 1t was obtained after
considerable persuasion. That night the
preacher studied over the matter until he
could not rest. He got up. dressed him
self and waited for day, and with the first
rays Of dawn he went after the coffin, and,
bringing it to his home, has kept it there
over all opposition. His wife says she will
not live in the house with the coffin, and
things point to q divorce between the
evangelist and his spouse. DIR. Pridgeon's
first wife was Miss Willoughby, and her
parents had their collins made long before
their death and kept them in the house,
their children using them to keep their
hats in. He said If his coffin was shaped a
little differently it would answer tho place
of a wardrobe, and his wife would not OBJ
ject to its presence until he needed It.

CONFIDENCE GAMES.
An Old Trick Played on Wealthy
Farmer.


CANTON, o., April 18.---John Brothers, .
rich old farmer living six miles south Of
here, was robbed Of $4,000 by two sharp
ers who worked q slick confidence game
on the innocent granger. One pretended
to be book agent, establishing agencies,
and the other acted as the prospective
purchaser Of Brothers farm, at 500
an acre. Between them they
induced the farmer to come to Canton
and draw $4,000 from the bank as guar
antee to the book agent that he was re-
sponsible man to intrust with an agency.
After drawing the money Brothers loft
town, and when few miles out was In
duced to exhibit his roll, when the
sharpers snatched It from him, threw
him out Of the buggy and drove Of. They
haven't been seen since. O. L. Clanser, q
shoe dealer, was swindled out Of three
hundred and fourteen dollars by gypsy
woman, who secured the the money to as.
sist her in the working Of charm for the
removal Of . large wart from Clanser's
face. She put the money in small bag,
or pretended to do so, telling Clanser to
place 1t in his Bible. After the woman
left, the shoe dealer examined the sack
and found in place Of his money some
pieces Of brown paper. The police were
notified, but the gypsy had flown, in COM
pany with number OF her kind that have
been encamped here several days.

A Girl Appeals for Ciemcncy for Her
Brothers Murderer, and swoons when IL
IL Denied.
ALBANY, N. Y, April 12--"Happy Bob"
Van Brunt, q member of the Salvation
Army, will be hanged at Warsaw, N. T.,
tomorrow for the murder Of Frank Roy.
Bob was courting Eva Roy, Franks sister.
Frank objected, and in quarrel which re-
suited Bob shot and killed his sweet
hearts brother. An unusual scene was
enacted In the Governors room today In
connection with this case. Miss Roy ar.
rived here last evening, and this morn
ing made an impassioned appeal to Gov
ernor Hill to commute Van Brunts sen.
tence to imprisonment for life. The Gov.
ernor received her kindly, listened to her
appeal, went over the points In the case
and tried to show her how, as he saw 1t,
there was no ground on which Executive
clemency could be extended, and con.
cluded by saying that the law must take
It's course. Miss Roy grew deathly pale at
these words, and her head dropped and
she fell In faint. A physician was sum-
moned and restoratives applied. II was
half an hour before she recovered. Look
ing about her in dazed sort OF way, she
cried, ''Poor Bob, poor Bob" and
sank back upon the sofa in another
swoon. At last, finding that she recovered
consciousness only to relapse into uncon-
sciousness, it was decided to send her to
the hospital, which was done. Her eyes
were CLASSY, her face hot and feverish,
and she seemed oblivious to every thing
going on around her. The girl Is COM
pletely broken down, and there is no end
of pity for her. The belief is general that
she is still in love with Van Brunt, though
she denies it and declares she hates him.

thorities at Pontiac warning him to look
out for A. w. j. Brown, who was roaming
around seeking whom he might marry
He did not appear, however, until
March "a, by which time the warn
ing had been forgotten, and a
license was issued permitting Will
bur j. Brown to wed Anna Winter. The
couple were duly married, and left the city
for Monroe. Detectives have been at work
on the case for several days, and as re-
suit Of their investigations it is said that

monial ventures have been discovered,
among them one at Pontiac, one at Kala-
mazoo, one at Grand Rapids, two at De-
troit and ono at Niagara Falls. The police
are very reticent concerning the affair.
