MRS. BURGESS CAPTURED.
After a Week She Is Found and
ReinCarcerated

AlUer u week she Is fOunu anu
ReinCarcerated.
Mrs. Burgess, the sneak thief and conf
dence woman who walked out of the central
station one night last week while the officers
were mapping, was recaptured last evening
by Officer 'Vanous. When the policeman
stepped out of the White Front saloon on
Farnam and Eleventh, his attention was
first called to her by her suspicious
actions. She darted into a heighboring cloth
Ing store and he followed. He soon saw
that she Tailed with the description of Mrs.
Burgess and she was arrested and taken to.
the central station, where, this time, she was
locked up in a cell. She has a broken arm,
which. she says. was caused by the brutal
manner in which she was flung into the pa
troll wagon at her former arrest. She
says her escape from the Jail was effected by
means of the stairway, but that she had help
from the outside or she could not have
planned this method of egress. She says
also that at the time she slipped out the
police were all asleep. She has been in the
city ever since her escape.

Much Excitement, Little Fire.

All Farnam street was thrown into a furore
of excitement yesterday afternoon about 5
o'clock by an alarm of fire, and as volumes of
smoke were seen to arise apparently from the
b.. & M. headquarters, an immense crowd
gathered in a remarkably short time. The
whole fire department turned out, but upon
arriving on the scene it was found that the
cause of all this commotion was a slight blaze
in a popcorn stand Just west of the B. & M.
headquarters. The cause of the fire was the
explosion of a gasoline lamp. The damage
will amount to about $l5.
The fire department was again called out
to Nineth and Pacific streets ABOUT 9 :45 last
evening. The blaze proved to be in an old
summer kitchen which had caught fire from
the stone pipe passing through it. The dam
age done was slight.

THE CHErOPA HASoIxo.--The Oheto-
pa tragedy, spoken of in these coll
umns last week, was not as serious as
hrst reported. as both officers are
alive and there is strong hopes Of
their recovery. John Risby, one Of
the negroes, had been drunk, riding
horseback down the sidewalks. into
stores aud wherever he pleased. A
warrant was issued for his arrest, and
placed in the hands OF Marshal Wm.
Bentley, who made an unsuccessful
attempt to take him, and n man nam
ed Ed. Martin was dePutiEed to assist
in the arrest. On the appearance OF
the two officers, Wiley Lee also color
cd, had joined Risby, and a battle en-
sued in which the officers were both
shot down. The negroes were taken
In charge oy citiEens and held until
the arrival Of the sheriff. At this
point a masked mob broke into the
room whore The negroes we're confined,
overpowered the guard, took the pris-
oners to tho rear end OF the States
man printing office and swung them
from the second story window where
they were found next morning.
Risby and Leo came down here on a
hand car and stayed several days TO
avoid being fined for disturbing the
peace. After they had started back
and gone q short distance the car was
wrecked and they walked back and
took the train. Among tho eolorOd
population Of this town both men
were we'll known.

ATTIcnINo A TRAIN.--At Prairie
City last Saturday Sheriff Henderson,
OF Delaware district, endeavored TO at
tach work train Of the Frisco railway.
Messrs. Audrain aud Fort had obtain
cd judgment, one upon stock claim,
the other upon ere damages, aggre-
eating something like $500. EKecu-
iions were issued and the officer,
lnding the train upon side track,
made known his intention. In q mo-
inent Conductor Fox gave a signal and
the engineer backed down onto the
main track. Tho idea was that the
train could not be molestod here with
out violating tho law regarding
the obstruction OF the U. b. mail.
Recognizing the soundness of this po-
sition, the sheriff declined to proceed
farther in the premises. The work
train was kept standing upon the
main track, the switches being open
aud the siding cleared for the use OF
the passenger and freight trains
The latter was run right through
without stopping. thus avoiding any
possibility Of being attached. II Il
reported that the U. y. court at Fort
Smith has been appealed to and has
ordered y stay Of proceedings. Fur
ther developments will be watched
with interest, as other cases ofa simi.
lar character are pending throughout
the nation.

A PECULIAR WELL. On the premises
Of W. W. Ross, at Tahlequah, there is
n well which Ia remarkable for the
coldness OF it's water, winter and sum-
mer. Ifa thermometer be placed in
this well in the hottest weather, the
mercury will fall from 80 degrees to As.
Another remarkable feature is con-
tinual rush OF cold air from the well,
which is very perceptible to person
standing near it's mouth. But the
strangest thing connected with this
we'll, which is 80 feet deep, is that the
water at depth OF 33 feet, froze six
inches thick last winter. A stone
weighing as much as Is pounds was
thrown down from the top without
any perceptible appearance Of the ice
yielding. There must be some connec-
tion with subterransan air chamber
which has an outlet in one Of the sur
rounding hills.

The Beer Question, and Insurance

For long time the assumption that
beer is almost if not quite harmless,
and really beneficial, was generally
accepted as true, but lately, proof has
been called for with astonishing results.
A couple of years ago the Toledo
(OhiO) Blade had eleven prominent
physicians in that city interviewed,
and the testimony of all was in sub.
stantial accord with that of DR.. S, H.
Bergen, who said: ITO compass my
idea in few words, l think it kills
quicker than any other liquor" Tole-
do is essentially a beer-drinking city.
The German population is very large,
there are five of the largest and most
extensive breweres'sin the country
here, and there probably more beer
drank in proportion to the population
than in any other city in the United
States. The practice of these physi-
clans is, therefore, largely among the
beer-drinkers, and they have had
abundant opportunities to know exact
ly its bearing upon health and disease.
Every one of them bears testimony to
the fact that no man can drink beer
safely; that it is an injury to any one
who uses it, in any quantity, and that
its effect upon the general health of the
country, has been even worse than that
of whisky.
Lise Insurance companies have no
sentiment; they are as cold blooded as
banks. They do business upon strictly
business principles. Their business is
one based purely upon experience from
whice certain memorable rules have
been established. A life insurance
company will not insure the life of a
confirmed beer-drinker. Why? Be-
cause it is a certain fact, as certain as a
thing can be, that the beer-drinker
cannot drink long enough to make in
surance profitable to them. These in
stitutiOns dread beer more than they
do whisky, for its effect upon the sys-
TEN is even worse. A non beer-drink-
er at fOry is considered a good risk-a
beer-drinker at that age can get no in
surance at all. As we said, there is no
sentiment in life insurance companies.
They act entirely upon facts which are
the result of experience. Their figures
never lie.
In addition to sowing the seeds of
disease and death in the physical sys-
TEN, beer in large quantities is said to
sodden the brain and paralyze or viii
ate the moral nature of its votaries.
Careful observers assert that it is more
brutalizing in its effects than either
spirituOus or vinOus liquors, in partial
proof of which they point to the dispro-
portionately large number of German
names among the perpetrators Of espe-
cially atrOcious crimes published in the
daily papers Chicago ReIigio- PhiIO-
sOphiraI Journal.
Smyrna times. [volume] (Smyrna, Del.) 1854-1987, 1888-01-04
Progress in Mexico.

The advance of any of our neighbors
on this continent in peace and prosper
lty is a matter Of interest to every
American. The report given by Gen
eral Foster, formerly Minister in Mex
leo, of the changes he noticed in re-
cent visit to that country will be read
with satisfaction. Mr. Foster, compar-
ing the present situation with that
seven years ago, remarks on the growth
of the free school system, on the gen.
eral increase in prosperity, on the re-
establishment of public credit, the
good order maintained throughout the
Republic, and the increase of railroads
and their effect on industry and com
merce.
Mexico has made these great advances
under the wise and firm rule of Presi-
dent Diaz, and it is greatly to the cred
it of the Mexican people that they
have so fully appreciated the benefits
of his administration and have given
him strong support in all the meas
ures he has introduced and recon-
mended, He will hold high rank
among the most enlightened and liber-
al rulers of his time.

Worlds Fairs.

Worlds fairs multiply so fast of late
years that it is an effort even for Gov
eminent authorities to keep seasonable
track of them, to say nothing of private
citizens. Secretary Bayard hurried
into Congress, before its adjournment,
notices of invitations to two of them,
to take place in 1888, one at Melbourne
and another at Barcelona, while there
is third, though of limited and spe-
cial character, to be held at Vienna.
The Secretary asked an appropriation
forthwith of $4,000 for a representa-
ton of the United States at the Aus
tralian fair, since the time for making
applications for space closes next Sat
urday; but Congress was willing to
run its chances of having the time ex-
tended or the space supplied, and there
will probably be no difficulty on that
score. If the many repetitions of these
international exhibitions of late wears
have destroyed the sense of wonder
with which they were at first regarded
their influence in promoting trade con-
tinues strong, and no country is likely
to profit more by representation at
them than ours.
