at the November term of the
Hooking County Common Pleas
Court for an indecent crime with
his daughter, and who has been
eluding the efforts of the police to
arrest him for about IS months,
was captured last Saturday night
at the residenceof his wife in this
town, by Deputy Sheriff Robert
Davey assisted by Ed Gengnagle
and Flave Davey. AS soon as he
saw that he was in the hands of
the officers he seized a pair Of
scissors and stabbed himself in the
neck, making cut two inches or
more in depth. The stab missed
the jugular vein or artery, and he
was prevented by the officers from
doing himself any further violence
at the time and was locked up in
Jail, where the next day he at
tempted to bleed himself to death
by cutting the artery of his arm
with a piece of glass, but was
again foiled in his attempt by the
vigilance Of the officers. He has
been receiving medical and surgi-
cal attendance, and q watch has
been kept over him ever since to
keep him from doing himself harm.
