Under this head the Cumberland NfacS
of Monday relates the following thrill
ing incident:
Wonnie, the 10 year Old daughter Of J. +.
Robinson, of Paw Paw, performed an aston
isting act Of heroism the other day. She had
charge Of her little sister Josie aged two years,
who while Wonnc'S attention was called
away, wandered on to the railroad track inst
~ No. 6 was going east at its highest rate of
speed When the child was first seen by
Wonnie the engine was not - feet from the
little one. There were fifteen or twenty
standing there, but not one dared to run the
risk and save the child.
Wonnie did not hesitate Il moment, she
sprpng on the track, seized the child in her
arms and bounded back, the engine grazing
ler dress and the rush of air whiting her
around, escaping nevertheless unhurt. AS
she sprang on the track the bystanders wheel
ed around horritpd and unwilling to see the
two children crushed. The child afterwards
said to her father:
Pa saved Josie and she saved me, too,
for if she had not been III my arms and
weighed me down the engine would have
sucked Inc under.
Little Wonne is well-known in this city,
coming here several times week to take
music lessons.
Wonnie is the granddaughter Of
William Wonn. of Eckhart.
She is heroine for life.

are actually having to buy from their com

MoRRIsoN's CANDIDACY.

There are various indications which
seem to point out with unmistakable
cleafness that Hon. WILLIAM MoRRI-
son, of Illinois, is not content with his
very snug berth on the interstate COM
merce commission, but intends going up
higher-if he can. In fine, the rumor
has gone abroad that Hon. WILLIAM
wants to be the next vice president of
the United States, and thus far the
rumor remains uncontradicted by the
chief person concerned.
Mr.. MORRISON has an undeniable
right to aspire to the vice presidency,
OF to any other elective position. Every
American citizen has the same right.
But Mr.. MORRISON has even greater
reason for aspiring than can be adduced
by most public men. For twelve years
he has been consistent and persistent
advocate of reduction in the high tar
if which has proven SO burdenSome to
the people.
For the gallant uphill fight he has
made he is deserving of great deal of
gratitude and consideration at the hands

A Missouri SchoOIiflam Tells
What she Knows Of Gang of
Thieves.
COLUMBUS, Mo-. March 21.-The cor
oner's jury in the case of David Gordon
has completed its work with verdict
of willful murder by William and Jona-
than Blathlock. Constable Gordon was
assassinated by the accused Friday last.
The Gulf depot had been broken open
the house where the stolen goods were
supposed to be secreted. Next day
Miss Clara BlathIock, teacher
in one of the city schools, confessed to
the authorities that her two brothers
did the killing. They were arrested
and made full confession of their null
titudinous crimes. They have been
connected for years with a gang OF
horse thieves which extends from Kan
sas City to Arkansas. Texas and Colo
RADIO. Their crimes include robbing the
mails, blowing open safes, Sandbagging
and murder. Fifteen arrests have al
ready been made, and information has
been telegraphed that will lead to the
arrest of as many more. Miss Clara
graduated last year at the High school
and made successful teacher, yet she
was the secretary of an organized gang
of horse thieves, crooks and burglars.
A family of ten persons by the name of
Fry were the principal accessories here
and their cousins by the name of Ally
were also implicated. A search was
made and brought stolen goods and
bushels of criminal correspondence to
light, and promise of immunity for
Clara and her mother brought out the
confession.

LAND OFFICE APPOINTMENTS

President CLEVELAND is eQuipping
the land office with good material, and
there is now every reason to believe
that the president intends to persevere
in his honest endeavors to purify a de-
partment which, of all others, had fallen
into the most disgraceful condition
under successive Republican regimes.
When Gen. SPARKS retired from the
land office, there was an apprehension
manifested in many quarters that the
heretofore rigorous land policy of the adj
ministration would be relaxed. and that
the corporations would succeed in seeur-
ing a successor to SPARKS who would fol-
low the precedent set by Republican
land commissioners of looking more
carefully after the interests of the land
rings than the interests Of the govern
ment. But whatever fears may have
been entertained on this score have
been dispelled by the appointment
of Commissioner SToCKsLAGER and AS
sistant Commissioner ANDERSON. They
are both representatives of the best ell
ement of Western Democracy, and in
thorough sympathy with the masses in
their fight against the monopolies. Mr..
SToCKsIAGER's services in congress are
the guarantee of his qualifications. Col.
