FIGHTING THE WARDENS.
a Test Case of Their Power to Be Mad

A Test Case OF Their Power to Be Made
in the Courts.
j. 1vancovicb, owner of several dilapi-
dated rookeries on the corner of Davis and
Washington streets, is making test case
against the Fire Wardens. Recently he re-
ceived notice to remove the buildings, hut
paid no attention to the matter, and was ar
rested on charge of misdemeanor. His at
torney, Reuben FL. Lloyd, interposed de-
murrer to the complaint filed by the Fire
Wardens in the Police Court. claiming that
a precedent had been established in such
cases by Judge Sawyer of the Circuit Court,
to the effect that the Wardens' action was
Illegal, and that they had no power nor right
to condemn buildings without hearing in
the courts from the owner.
Judge Xix differed in his opinion, and
overruled the demurrer. The case was set
for October Sd.

Enterprise in Advertising.

For several days past much attention
has been attracted to an elegant team
and carriage upon the streets, the
horses being handsomely caparisoned
with orangecOlOred silk blankets bear
ing the legend, 'Krause's Headache
Capsules" Mr.. Norman Lichty, of Des
Moines, Iowa, has adopted this novel
method, among other unique forms of
advertising, of calling the attention of
druggists and the public at large to the
merits OF his Capsules as specific cure
for all forms of headache. His agent is
making the rounds of the druggists
with the view of placing these valuable
medicines upon the market here. The
Capsules have attained national repu-
tation for doing what is claimed of
them, as Mr.. Lichty has in his clever
and novel ways of advertising. We
only wonder that he has not sooner
sought to give the Twin Cities the ben
eft OF his most excellent remedy for one
Of humanity's greatest banes. The vir-
tues of Krause's Headache Capsules are
and will be in the future duly pro-
claimed in our advertising columns,
and if they fail of general use here, it
will not be because the public are not
fully posted as to their merits.

SUITS THE SILVER MEN.
The Jones Bill, Slightly Amended,
to Be Reported FavOrabIy.

The Jones Bill, Slightly Amended,
to Be Reported FavOrably.
WASHINGTON, D. c., May 5.-An
effort was made by the senate Republi-
can silver committee to-day to agree
upon silver bill to be reported to the
caucus. Three of the thirteen members
were absent. The ten present, together
with Senator Stewart. who was invited
: TO take part in the proceedings, after a
discussion lasting nearly three hours,
decided TO report to caucus to be held
some day this week, the bill reported
by Senator Jones from the finance COM
mittee some weeks ago, with amend
ments. One of the amendments pro-
posed strikes out the provision in
issued for the purchase of
bullion, when redeemed, shall be can
celled, and inStructS the secretary of
the treasury to reissue them, with the
proviSO that the amount outstanding
shall not at any time be in excess OF
the amount paid out for the bullion des
posted. Another amendment is the
addition of the sixth section OF the bill
adopted by the house caucus, which
provides for the covering into the treas
ury of about seventy millions of lawful
money now held for the redemption OF
national bank notes. The Jones bill,
it will be remembered, directs the sec
rotary of the treasury to purchase
monthly silver bullion to the value of
S4,500,000. the notes in payment thereof
to be redeemable in lawful money. Two
of the members of the committee felt
to-day that they could not unqualifi eddy
give their support to the measure. al
though they were willing to have
the matter go to the caucus for
its decision. One of them, it is
said, will support it in case it is ap-
proved by the other Republican sena-
tors, but the other was not ready to go
even so far. He desires time to con-
slider the situation. Senator Mitchell,
of Oregon, stated, in referring to the
proposed compromise, that while per-
SOnally he was in favor of the free coin
age of silver, he believed the measure
(the bullion redemption clause having
been omitted,l to be free from any
vicious principle, and one that, if
adopted, would ultimately lead to free
coinage. In this Senator Teller agreed.
The order of business for the rest of
the week was also briefly discussed, but
nothing was definitely decided upon.
The general opinion was that the Idaho
and Wyoming admission bills should be
taken up at 2 o'clock tomorrow as I'M
finished business, and in the morning
hour between IL and p. n.y. the Ding
ley Worsted bill should be considered.
The belief was expressed that the lat
ter could be passed without extended
deba te.

This morning the family had breakfast
together and the mother went to her

to school and shortly afterwards the
boy went fishing, but the father stayed
at home. Soon after the son left the
father went to the school house to get
the girl excused so she might go
home. She was seen to go into
the house by neighbor. After that
neither she nor her father, as far as is
learned. was seen alive. The son re-
turned from his fishing trip about $50
p. m.. and, upon entering the house,
noticed blood spots upon the floor.
These he tracked to the front room,

arose and made an apology for the
strong language he used OH the evening
before in denouncing the ISLANDERS
against the people of Conway county.
His apology was made to the committee.
Before adjournment this afternoon
the chairman, Mr.. Lacey, an
nounced that it was the inten-
ton of the committee to conclude
its labors to-day. The most important
witness called to day was Oliver L.
Bentley, the man whom Clayton sus-
poets of having killed his brother. Bent
ley is the deputy sheriff of Conway
county, and claims to have been in Nor
rilltOn on the night that Clayton was
killed at Plummerville. To-day he
handed the committee papers in the di-
vorce case of Luther VS.. Luther, which
he served on Lydia Luther and others
Tuesday afternoon. Jan. 20. 1888, across
the river from Morrillton. He returned
the afternoon. About dark that night
he served a notice on John Hinkle, the
attorney, to take deposition in the case
Feb. s. Hinkle appeared before the
committee and corroborated the testi-
m0ny given on this point by Bentley.
Witness is prepared to prove that after
he left Hinkle he went to supper and
from there attended dance. After
witness had given this testimony he
was asked if he had any objection to
giving the committee specimen of his
handwriting, to which he made answer
i'll the negative. Chairman Lacey then
dictated to the witness to write the fol-
lowing letter, which he did very rap
idly:
State of New Hampshire, June, 1885,
Town Marshal. Morrilton, Ark: You may
soon prepare your coffin and bid adieu to
your family, as you shall soon take the road
that Col Clayton took. ] am little sorry of
killing Col. Clayton, as we thought it was
old Powell Clayton. He is the one we shall
kill before many suns does set over his head.
and you, yourself Cd d-n your sould to
the depths of hell, you too, shall soon bite
the dust You passed great insult to me on
the streets of Morrilton once. and have not
forgot it, nor never shall, till / shoot your
d-n brains out. This is no fooling, You
rascal; and you needn't doubt it l shall
kill you in spite of hell and damnatiOn. You.
you, seen me while ago. and you did not
know it. You will soon see me, but it will be
too late for you to live Respectfully,
JACK THE RIPPER, No. l. .
AS soon as Bently concluded writing
the above CORY article, he handed the
sheet of paper to Maj. Lacey, who CON-
pared the writing with that of the orig
inal. There was no similarity whatever
in the chirography of Jack the Ripper,
