Bride and Groom Killed.

CHICAGO, Oct. A dispatch from jam
boree, Pike county, KY, says: "The old
Hatfield Mccoy feud has broken out again
and at least three more lives have been
sacrificed in bloody vendetta which has
now lasted over seven years. The shoot
ing occurred at the farm house Of Peter
Mccoy. His daughter was to become the
wife of John Hand, relative of the Hat
field gang, and the members of both fac
tions had sworn to prevent the union.
Hand had never been connected with the
disputes OF the factions, and refused to
recognize the leaders. Tuesday night the
bridal party assembled in McCoy's house,
and just as young Hand and Miss Mccoy
stood before the minister volley was
poured through the window, which killed
both of them and fatally wounded the
clergyman. Reports say that the farmers
and mountaineers of tho locality are hunt
ing for the murdorers, but no trace of them
has been found.

Allan 0. Meyers in Jail.

COLUMBUS. O., Oct S.-Judge Pugh this
afternoon handed down his decision in the
case of Allen o. Meyers. ex-managing edi
tor of the Cincinnati Inquirer, and one OF
the principals in the famous tally sheet for
gery cases, who is charged with contempt
of court in publishing letter in the Inq""-
err. attacking the integrity of the court IN
the tally sheet trial. The decision was ex-
neeted this forenoon, and Mr.. Meyers kept
the attorneys and others in good humor
while waiting. But the court deferred the
decision until after dinner.
This afternoon there was good sized
crowd present. Judge Pugh's decision was
very brief. He simply said that the Su-
preme Court had remanded the case Tor
rehearing upon technical point, and as
the rehearing had produced no new facts
it was not necessary to go again over the
reasons for the sentence. In Difference to
the Supreme Courts opinion, that the for
mer sentence was severe, he fixed the pres
ent sentence at Is days Imprisonment and
$3.50 fine.
At the close of the decision, when the
Judge had pronounced sentence, Meyers,
who occupied seat at one of the tables,
looked up and said: "May it please the
Court. I wish the order of commitment
made at once. I'm ready to go to Jail. L
suppose" he added "that 1 get to go to
the new Jail.
Judge Pugh Immediately ordered the
Clerk to make out the requisite papers SO
that Movers could be introduced to the
countys hospitalities in the regular way.
While the papers were being made out
the defendendant put in the time writing
at one of the tables, keeping hisjaws work

The original sentence as, pronounced ov-
er year ago, was 80 days imprisonment
and $3.50 fine.
Before reaching the prison Meyers sent
for Mr.. Geo. B Okey and had brief con-
ference with him as to the proper course to
be pursued. Okey advised him to serve
out his sentence, which he proceeded to
do.
Philip Sauter, who is awaiting trial on
the charge of murder, by consent of the
Sheriff, gave Myers his cell, which is a
large one, and it was prepared for its new
occupant. 1t is understood that Myers
will do some writing for the press while in
Jail, and will bring suit for damage when

ChicaRo and The Eaic.-

The sentiment of the Nation seems to be
turning towards Chicago as the place for
holding the great Worlds Fair in 1892.
Although New York ought to be favored
by the East as the proper place to hold
the great exposition, it is apparent that
such is not the case. The niggardly poll
cy pursued by the New Workers ever since
the question of site was first discussed
has predjudiced most people against them.
They want the fair, of course, for the mon
ey that is in it, the sentiment and associa-
tions of the event being of no consequence.
If the country at large should put up the
necessary buildings and in addition pay
largely for looking at the exhibits New
York would gladly donate site of some
kind, providing Central Park is not desc
Grated.
What is known as Gotham represents
little sentiment of any kind, particularly
sentiment of historical character. The
incomplete statue of Greeley, the inchoate
Grant memorial, the dissolving centennial
arch, and the airs of AcAllister and his
Four Hundred are all recent reminders of
of the un- n-American tone of New York So
ciety.
Editor Pulitzer's offer of 100000, pro-
viding twenty-four Others contribute a
similar amount, may stir up New York to
proper appreciation of its duty finally,
but not until after Chicago is duly selected
as the place for holding the celebration.
The average New York millionaire and the
average New York citizen are too fond of
the mighty dollar to 20 much on sentiment.

Pastor Warmon'S Terrible
Death.

KoKoMo, IND, Oct. 9.-The citizens OF
Jerome, a small town IA miles east of this
city, arranged for gas well display Mon
day night, and took for the purpose the
Diamond Plate Glass WELL just drilled
there, and the strongest well in the State.
A 60 foot 4-inch pipe was laid from the
well and to this was attached 4-foot
elbow vertically. When the torch was
applied the end which projected upward
was pushed over ON the ground, and the
immense pressure hurled the 60 feet of
pipe among the spectators with terrible
force. Most of the younger people in the
crowd were able to escape from the roar
ing flames which burst from the pipe, but
several were caught. Among these was
Chusa Warmon, pastor of the Friends
Church. The flames struck him full in the
face, and he fell to the ground a corpse.
He was burned to crisp. Frank LaRue's
leg was broken. John Hague was fatally
burned, the flesh falling from his body. He
cannot live. Hiram 0verman's skull was
crushed in the flight for life. He was dead
when found.

The New Dog Law.

The new dog law, which applies to all
counties of the State, provides for the COL
lection of tax of so cents for every male
and female dog. The tax is to be paid to
the School Boards and used by them in re
imbursing persons who sustain loss or dam
age to sheep by dogs. The persons who
have sustained such loss or damage may
make complaint before any Justice of the
Peace, and the latter shall notify the own
er of the dog or dogs causing the loss, and
if the owner does not sppeal "as soon as
practicable" and pay the loss caused by his
dogs, the Justice shall notify the township
auditors to appraise the loss sustained by
the claimants; they have power to sum-
mon witnesses and investigate the matter
thoroughly, and shall determine and report
to the Justice the amount of the deposit if
any. All dogs in the State shall be made
personal property and subject to larceny.
Justices shall be allowed fee of so cents
in every case that comes before them.
Owners of dogs causing loss may volun-
tarily pay the damage, without awaiting
action. In case there is surplus in the
sheep fund in the hands of the treasurer at
the close ofthe year amounting to $100, the
same shall be transferred to the school
fund of the district for school purposes.
