STILL A POLICE SUBJECT.
The Great Henry Q. and His Little Bogus
Check.

OutCk.
Pairolmen Meskel and Miller made an
important capture yesterday in the arrest
Of Henry G. Still, who is wanted on a
charge OF obtaining money under false pre-
lenses.
About o'clock Saturday afternoon Still
purchased OF Friedel, Reder & Co. lumber
to theamount OF 1881, in payment Of which
he rendered a check on the State National
Bank. The check was signed az. w.
Hill, and was for $500. He received in
return $40 in currency. His instructions
to the firm were to ship his purchase TO
Lake Providence, La, where he said he
was engaged in business. Messrs. Friedel,
Redcr 4 Co., suspecting the check TO be
worthless, presented Il to the bank for GER
titication. The cashier informed them
that there was no money to the credit Of
l.. w. Hill, and the individual himself, il
such a person existed, was unknown TO
him. Capt. O'liaver was informed Of the
occurrence and he instructed the police ut
all the depots TO watch the outgoing trains,
and II the swinder was aboard TO arrest
him.
Yesterday Just before the $50 o'clock p.
m. train Of the Chesapeake q Ohio pulled
out from the depot, Patrolmen Meskel
and Miller noticed man who CORE
sporhled with the description gwen them,
cycling them closely. They at once put
him down M the man wanted, and started
10 arrest him. When within few feet OF
the man he broke aud ran, going down
the track toward Wolf river. The officers
gave chase. but finding they could not
oyertake him pulled their pistols and fired
three shots in the air hoping by this means
to frighten him into a halt. The shots
produced the desired effect and the iuH-
live surrendered and was taken 20 the POI
lice station, where upon being searched, a
paper was found in his pocket
that left no doubt as TO his
identity. Among other things taken from
him was ticket 10 Chicago, 50 in money
and bill for goods bought OF Floyd & Co.
The bill was reccipted and the officers be-
lieye that lac passed a bogus check on
them. Stills career has been one Of crime
for number Of years About fifteen
years ago he killed man in this city but
escaped punishment ON the plea OF self
defense. He next turned up in Missouri,
where In March, 1883, lac was sentenced ~
three years In the penitentiary for the
same oiiensc lac is now under arrest for In
this city. still being In bad health the
Governor Of that state pardoned him on
the l4lh Of February OF the present year.
After his release from prison he returned
10 Memphis, and there Is every prospect
Of him again wearing stripes.

usual amount OF rain isreported. Through
out Dakota and Northern Minnesota the
snowfall has been 80 per cent. greater than
usual, while in Texas almost double the
usual amount Of, rain is reported. There
Is deficiency Of moisture in the wheat
region OF the Central valleys. This deli
cheney is very slight in Missouri and Kan
sas, where the rainfall for the season gen.
orally exceeds 90 per cent OF the usual
amount, while in, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois,
Kentucky, Northern Tennessee and South
ern Michigan about 60 per cent oil the
normal rainfall is reported.
General Remarks-The weather condi-
tons for the week and season have been
favorable throughout the central valleys
and the Southern States. The season Is
well advanced, and farm work is in prog
ress from Texas to Minnesota and Dakota.
Notwithstanding the deficiency OF moist
nre in the winter wheat region the reports
indicate that the weather in the section
has Affected this crop favorably. In the
spring wheat section the ground isreported
In fine condition, and sowing IS in progress
IN Dakota and Nebraska. Reports from
Tennessee, Arkansas and the Gulf States
show that the weather has been favorable
for farm work, which is well advanced,
and crops are in good condition. The sea-
son is few days later than usual in the
South Atlantic States, where the weather
has been cool and the ground moist. The
ground il covered with snow over the
greater portion OF New England and New
York, while the crops have been exposed
in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, but re-
ports indicate that wheat in these States
has not been materially injured.
