nothing, but was very restless and
uneasy, When he heard that the
excitement had died down, he APP
peared to be more calm and collected,
but still refused to talk. Deputy
Bowman was found at Sheriff Smiths
Office and then went to the jail to Sc.
cure his prisoner. A few moments
later DIR. Holman arrived and pro-
ceeded to the cell where they found

boy. How old are your" Asked
Deputy Sheriff Bowman.
Seventeen" replied the boy.
The wristlets were locked and the
march made to the depot. A good

dalia before you go?" asked BAzoo

tor gave the signal 10 start.
Nothing" he answered. The

at the depot.
DIR. Holman, Coroner of Cooper

anticipated. Deputy Bowman also
said that if the rifles had come to

age now. The early years of his life

OUT ON BAIL.
A Mans Life Considered q Small
Thing in Liberty, Mo.
1 Murderer Who is DOubly
Guilty Now q Free Man.

Liberty, Mo-, Jan. 10.-James L. Sheetz ;.
the slayer of John LeWton, is now free
man so far as any restraint on his PERSONAL
liberty is concerned, he having been ad-
nitted to bail in the pitifully small
amount of 81 500 this afternoon.
The man charged by the coroner with
murder in the first degree was arraigned
before Justice of the Peace L. p. Gray
Yesterday afternoon and the attorneys
asked that bond be fixed for his release,
when the justice after only . short dehber-
stion announced that he would make the
bail 81, 500.
Had thunderboit from . clear sky
dropped down upon the prosecuting at
tCrney and the. other officers they could
hardly have been more surprised. and so
pected to Shee.z and his attorneys rsr' Hns1.
Attorney Dougherty at once sprang to his
feet and argued against the bond being 80
small, for he thought that to grant bail at
all was as much as could be expected. He
labored TO have it raised to at least S.. 600.
The justice considered $500 sufficient
and the papers were made out and steps
were at once taken to get citisens to sign
the bond, The defendant and w. 81. Bur
ris, one of his attorneys, and deputy sher-
il were soon On the street hunting bonds
men.
The required bond was secured with no
trouble and in an hour after his arrsign.
ment Sheetz was released.
The bondsmen are B. T. Gordon, Samuel
George Wymore and T. ].
Keller, all prominent citizens.

Together Again.

"a fire in room 49," was the order to the
porter at Sicber's last night about $50
O'Clock. Shortly after the brightly burn.
ing blaze was illuminating and warming
the apartment, the young couple of whom
so much has been said, Mr.. Will J. Math-
ews and wife, nee Miss Lillian Mayes, as
cended and took occupancy. That rec
oncilliation has been effected is a foregone
conclusion, but what their intentions are
for the future could not be learned.
The utmost quiet attended all the
movements of the newly married couple
and it was with difficulty any word could
be obtained that was relevant, but since
the above was written it was ascertained
authoritatively that they would leave for
Kansas City to-day. Mr.. Mathews gave it
out to BAzoo reporter yesterday that he
intended going to st. Louis tomorrow, but
there has been an evident change in the
programme since.

Concord township, Berrien county,
Michigan, during the years 1870 and
1871. She was then working to sup.
port six small children during this
time, being even compelled at times
to 60 into the field to pillow and husk
corn that she might find food for her
little ones. / will show by Mr.. and
Mrs. Seeley of the same county, and
by Mr.. and Mrs. Hogue of Niles,
Mich, that during the years 1872,
1873 and 1874 Mrs. Griffith, then
known as Mrs. Marks, resided with
three children in Carrollton, suburb
of South Saginaw. Mrs. Champion
of jackson, Mich, corroborstes Mrs.
Perry and Mrs. Graham as to Mrs.
Griffith's residence during the years
1870 and 1871. / have also certi6.
cate signed by the mayor and sixteen
other citizens of Miles, testifying to
the good character and upright bear
ing of Mrs. Griffith during her life in
"As to Mrs. Davis, who is thought
to be Kate Bender, Mr.. and Mrs.
Smell. OF Bay Port, Mich. swear to
her residence in that city during the
years of 1871 and 1872 with her hus-
band Hiram johnson. Mrs. Taylor
makes affidavit that Mrs. Davis, then
Mrs. johnson. spent the year OF 1873
upon farm adjoining her home and
but few miles from the town of Bay
Port. During this time Mrs. johnson
gave birth to her third child, which
child was buried there few months
later. This death left Mrs. johnson
with two living children, which fact
alone would preclude the possibility OF
her being Kate Bender, who was
known at that time to be a young and
unmarried woman. The physician,
DIR. Mervin, who attended Mrs. John
son, also certiies to the birth and
death of this child. This brings the
record of Mrs. Davis through the year
1873, and until the month of Septem-
Der after the Blenders had disappeared
in the previous April.
Il: would be difficult to imagine
stronger case of alibi than these Aft
iavits make. all of them from good
and reputable citizens, am satisfied
that when l present this proof to the
prosecuting attorney, he will agree
With me as to the impossibility of |
hese women being in any way con-
,ected with the Blenders, and will at |
nee favor their discharge.

SEDALIA THE CENTER.
Rich Beds of Minerals Believed
to be Located in this Yicini.
ty.

Prof. Jenney, of Smithsonian insti-
tute and chief of the q. s. Geological
department, is now in the southern
part of the state prosecuting researches
regarding the rich zinc and lead de-
posts that have latterly come to light.
From indications Sedalis is located
In what is near the center OF perhaps
the richest bed of these minerals on
the Western continent.
The lately opened NJ, K. & T.
mine in Morgan county has developed
remarkable richness and a complete
nlant nf msrhinarp IN. hiring. ont the
mineral is being put in and regular
work will be commenced early in the
spring.
This mine is 80 miles southeast of
Sedalia and 81 miles from the
railroad. The specimen ore
that they have shown is worth s27
per ton on the dump and the demand
is greater by tar than the supply.
One Of the owners of this mine, a
resident of Sedalia, said to the writer
that if their Morgan county mine
banned out as they expected it would,
ne intended to open a mine on .
tract immediately outside of Sedalia.
Ii 9 discovery of zinc and lead in this
vicinity would create a rare boom for
the city and men experienced in the
work say the evidences of its presence
are just as good here as at other
places.
