HxNhetA Lies the Land ?b

s.Where lies the land to which yon ship
MUST gos" asks Wordsworth, in one of his
better known sonnets. Something like this
was question which Master Hovey, of the
old Phillips school, used to ask his pupils.
The good man had way of his own in
teaching geography. His text book was the
morning newspaper, out of which he read the
list of incoming vessels, together with the
names of the ports from which they had
sailed. Then the pupils We're expected to tell
him what were the probable cargoes
At other times the boys were hidden to
visit the wharves, and find out what Graf
were in port, and what cargo they had
brought or were taking away.
One morning boy reported that he had
found vessel rerdy to sail with a load of
grain and gun carriages. The combination
was peculiar, and quite discussion arose as
to what the ships destination could be.
One member of the class mentioned slight
disturbance then in progress in northern AT
RIGA, but the suggestion was not favorably
received. Algeria itself was great cereal
country, and would hardly be importing
grain.
A small war somewhere upon the shores Of
the Adriatic was mentioned. This seemed a
more likely clew. Master and pupils finally
agreed that this was probably the ships des-
tination, and the boy who had reported the
case was appealed to for confirmation.

Caught in the West.

FARGO. N. D., Sept. S.-Oswell Riddle
Miles, alias Leonard Morris, Earl Of Dur

Fargo this morning, by Inspector Mitchell.
of Scotland Yard, for forgery of $500 on
WoOdall e. Co., brokers in London. The
act was committed about the middle of
July. and Inspector Mitchell left London
month behind the forger, who was clerk
in banking-house. He first got track of
him in New York, next in Chicago, where,
1T Is said, he committed another forgery,
then In Minneapolis whence he came to
Fargo. On his arrival he registered as
Robert Morris, of London, but soon avowed
his noble origin, stating that, owing to
family troubles. he was taking tour of the
world. HIS income he stated to be $50, 900
ayear. and he spent money lavishly. He
first appeared at Mayville. and exhibited

spent not less than that amount in this
country.

BRAVE FIGHT AGAINST TRAMPS.
Brakeman Shuts Them in an Ice Chest and
Sits on the Lid During the Trip.

BLOOMINGTON, H., Sept. s.-Trainmen on
the Chicago g. Alton railroad have
been troubled a great deal of late by
tramps. Last night three of that nomadio
species boarded q freight train at Joliet.
Edward Brennan, q brakeman, put them off,
whereupon they fired several shots at him.
The three tramps then got aboard another
freight train which was following the one
Brennan was ON. James Roberts, brake
man on this train, had heard of the trouble
brennan had had and lured the tramps into
the ice chest on an empty refrigerator car
and attempted to lock them in, but found
the fastening to the trap-door on
the top of the car broken.
In order TO hold the tramps
Roberts was obliged to throw his weight
on the door. When the tramps learned they
were in the tolls, they endeavored to get
out, and Roberts was obliged to fight them
all the way to the city, dis
tance of about seventy miles. The
tramps would partly raise the
door on which Roberts sat and point q re-
volver through the opening. They fired
several shots, but Robertskept outof range
of the bullets. In order to prevent the
tramps escaping she was obliged to hammer
them back with coupling pin. This smorn-
ing he landed them in this city, and they
were taken in charge by the police.

REMARKABLE MURDER PLOT.
Prominent Man Removed" and His Hired As
sassin Lynched to Keep the Secret.

Special to the indianapolis Journal
WHEELING, w. Va, Sept. s.-Investiga-
tions by the grand jury of Fayette county,
this city. have brought to light
tiendish plot. About month ago
white man named Charles
West was waylaid and butchered
by Bill Turner, worthless negro who had
been criminal all his life. West was q
prominent citizen, and committee of reg
ulators lynched Turner. Curiosity about
and rumors of a statement that Turner
had made just before he was strung up
became so numerous that the grand jury,
then in session, took cognizance of them,
and began an Investigation. One OF the
lynchers, John West, q cousin of the MUIR
dered man, was summoned, and during
his examination broke down, and
made the following remarkable
confessions: Charles West was po-
litically obnoxious to number of per
mined to have him removed. He was too
prominent a man to be killed without ex-
citing searching examination. which
might prove unpleasant for his muir
a quarrel in which he might be shot in
! self-defense.. The plotters were in di-
lenima, and held several conferences. At
last they hit upon the plan of hiring Turner
to do the deed, and then lynching him be-
fore he had chance to implicate them,
thus destroying all trace of their guilt
West was killed and Turner was lynched,
but before they could strangle their hired
bravo he let fall q few words that gave
a clew to the officers of the law.
but those concerned in the plot are known
and will be indicted at once. Three of
them have become alarmed and have left
the vicinity, abandoning their property.

PRINCE OF WALES TO RULE.

Question OF Importance to He Decided as
the Meeting In Italy.
LONDON, Sept. S.-There is considerable
speculation as to the meaning of the pro-
posed meeting of royalties in Italy next
month The Empress Frederick will make
her residence at the villa occupied by her
mother last year at Florence, where she
will be visited by her son. the
Emperor of Germany, and his wife.
although the objective point of this lat
ter pair will ostensi5ly be Rome. Although
great pains have been taken TO keep the
fact from the public. the Queen of England
will join her daughter aud her imperial
grandson at Florence, where a matter of
the highest Importance; not only to Great
Britain, but to the world. will be decided.
This is nothing less than the proposal that
Queen Victoria should abdicate in favor of
the Prince of Wales. The Prince has been
pleased to announce that his health has
been much improved by quaffing the Ger
man waters, thus still further ingratiating
himself with the Germans and their ruler,
which it is his role to do now for the most
powerful reasons.
Their outward reconciliation at least is
now complete, and the Prince has privately
given it out that he intends henceforth TO
abandon all frivolous habits of life, discard
all loose acquaintances. however entertain.
ing, and conduct himself as becomes the
ucif 10 tnTOno unuouoJeuly tne Inost en-
viable Of any in existence. Daughter and
grandson are expected to impress this edi-
flying resolution upon Queen Victoria at
the meeting of the trio in Italy, and an
other attack will be made upon her to re-
hnquish the cares of state. 1t is well under
stood that the reason that a former as
sault failed was the old lady's vigorously
expressed objection to seeing. putting il as
delicately as possible, q person leading such
life as the Prince had led assume the
regency over people accustomed at least
to a virtuous court.
Now that he has determined to foreswear
ballet girls and professional beauties, alb
stain from baccarat and similar seductive
games and accept only the society of the
grave and learned. it is hoped that the last
objections of the Queen to retiring to pri-
vate life will be overcome and that she can
conscientiously crafty her secret desire
pleases in the companionship of her Wild
owed daughter
