era, but the disease Immediately dis
appeared. The remedy is very sim.

THE PEN AWAITS THEM.
But Rope Would Prove More Ell.
caciOus.

From appearances it would seem
that an organized band of horse
thieves are working in circuit COM
posed Of Jackson, Clay. Ray, Henry,
johnson and Bates counties. Last
week two men arrived in Warrens-
burg and tried to dispose of a couple
of horses they were riding at very
low prices. They were suspicioned
and placed under arrest, but as no
news was received within "a hours
regarding them, they were released.
They afterwards sold one of the
horses to /. W. Rogers for $50 and
left town. One of them was seen in
Holden the next day with another
different horse.
A few nights afterward, a man
came here from Carroll county and
took the horse that had been sold to
MIR. Rogers. 1t had been stolen
from him in Carroll county a week
before. It then became known that
the two men who had been under
arrest were horse thieves. Sheriff
Baker thought so all the time and
sent word to Ray county, asking
about them, they saying they lived
in Ray county, but he received an
answer from ex-sheritf Morris that
they were all right. Not having any
evidence against the men he was
compelled to release them. It after
wards turning out that they were
thieves places ex-sheriff Morris in q
bad light.
It has since been found out that
the men belong to an organized
gang. One of the men that was
here is an ex-convict and as he is
known will soon be captured. These
thieves have stolen some 25 or &c
horses within the last 6 months and
even went so far as to resteal some
that they had sold Sheriff Baker
received card from Richmond, Ray
county, Tuesday, stating that anoth
er horse had been stolen, probabl,
by the same gang.-Warrensbur9

Romance Of Crime.

Chicago, Aug. 19.-Frank Doni-
hue will soon be released from the
penitentiary after serving two years
sentence for larceny. 1t has been
learned that he was the innocent vic
tim of conspiracy, He had, while
going rounds as newspaper carrier,
become acquainted with the young
daughter of certain millionaire.
The father, learning of the intimacy
had him arrested on charge of lar
ceny and bribed his lawyer to advise
him to plead guilty The editor of
leading newspaper, learning of the
story, wrote it up and extorted ST.
900 from the millionaire for not pub
fishing it.
This $1,000 enabled the editor to
make up what was lacking of $10,-
900, which he had to raise to meet
note and save himself from going
to Jail for fraud. The rest was OBJ
tanned from people who wanted the
influence of the paper in political or
advertising purposes. The name of
the editor and the millionaire are not
given.

between Mrs. Campbell and her as
sailant, who vainly tried to accom-
plish his purpose, threw her down
and stamped upon her. In. the
meantime her terrific screams for as
sistance had brought neighbors to
| the scene of the conflict, at the sight
of whom the unknown ruffian fed
In the immediate confusion no sys
tematic pursuit was made, but afte
the rescuers had recoved their scat

off after him. At last accounts the,
were close to his heels and if caugh
he will undoubtedly be iynched

injured and the nervous shock cor
sequent upon the sudden assaul
has left her in Il very critical condi
