Too Poor to Marry.

BIDDEFoRD, April 8. "A man named
Greenway, of Portland, came to Saco last
week and filed his intention of marriage to
Emma Haines, pauper at the city farm.
But the overseers of the poor would not let
her go unless this Greenway would marry
her. So Greenway went to Portland and
filed his intentions in there. But the city
clerk notified Mr.. Baker, one of the Portland
overseers of the poor, who at once wrote to
Saeo telling the overseers there that the city
of Portland had helped Portland within a
month, and not to let him marry the Haines
girl. Greenway was last heard of in Port

of Troy for the murder of his little sister
was held at Grange Hall, Wednesday, before
Trial Justice Frank Green Of Belfast.
County Attorney Runnels appeared flor the

for the defense.
The first witness called was Cora Z. Bag
ley. who was slightly wounded by the boy
at the time the sister was killed. She de-
tailed the circumstances Of the shooting.
Levi Bagley, father of Lester, testified /:
Some two months ago drew the charge
from the gun, cleaned it up and set it In the
bedroom leading out of the kitchen. Lester
was present and saw me do Ii. He did not
know the gun was loaded. Some time ago l
had occasion to load the gun to shoot a
weasel was out OF sight set the gun back
and forgot all about it. Lester thought ev-
erything of his sister and never took the gun
in his hand before in his life."
Mrs. Bagley, mother of Lester, said: "We
went out to the post office the evening. the
accident happened. Had been gone only a
few minutes when Cora came for us. She
did not tell us what the trouble was. My
husband got home first. found Lester in
the parlor crying. He said he did not know
the gun was loaded. He was not in the
touch Il The sgs gum IN his s Leser se is saw twel1e @
years old his sister who was killed was ten
years. They always thought a great deal
Of each other, and he was very atfectionate
to her."
Lester Bagley testified: "My sister Abby
and Cora Bagley were in the sitting-room
and remained ten or twenty minutes after
father and mother went out. was lying on
the lounge; had the headache. The girls
were playing and making some noise. told
them to keep still. Soon after they went up
stairs. spoke 70 them once after they went

after they went up stairs. l went up stairs
and stood in the door of their room. Do not
know that pointed the gun at my sister.
Do not know as | said anything after the
gun went off. i did not go to my sister and
putmy arms around her neck and say to her
that was sorry and did not know the gun
was loaded. Do not know why / took the
gun upstairs with me-"
The testimony being all in, Mr.. Thompson
briefly addressed the court, showing that by
the evidence there was no intent on the part
of Lester to injure his sister that he did not
think the gun might be loaded and that the
shooting was accidental The county at
torney replied briefly for the state, and SUBJ
mitted it to the court, who not finding any
evidence of guilt or intentional wrong doing,
acquitted the boy, and ordered him to be dis

THE BENDER FAMILY.
A Series Of Disappearances Which
Recall Their Many Crimes.

KANSAS CRY, Mo-, April 3.-About four
Of Rawlins county, Kan, is what is known
as the 'old Horn farm" On this farm is
an old WELL In 1879 the farm was occupied
by man named Swift Swift was arrested
and convicted of grievous crime. When
he was lying in Jail party of men. pretend
ing to be his friends, took him off ostensibly
to release him, but he was never heard of
since, and 1t is supposed that his pretended
friends murdered him and threw his body
into the old well and robbed him of $780,
On an adjoining farm lived a man with his
family named Chlebeard. One day. Mrs.
Chlebeard died very suddenly, and although
1t was thought that she had been poisoned
by her husband, there was no proof. and the
authorities never took action in the matter.
Shortly after the man mysteriously disap-
peared, and the eldest son gave 1t out that he
had gone temporarily to Germany, but as he
never returned 1t is thought his body also
lies at the bottom of the old Horn well.
Soon after, brother going to school dis
appeared, and the eldest brother said he had
gone to Nebraska. He, too, is supposed to
be resting at the bottom of the well.
Last December, the third brother came
home from school in the best of health and
was given an apple by the elder brother. In
fifteen minutes he was in convulsions, and
In three hours was dead. Shortly after the
boy was taken with the convulsions his
brother threw the body over his shoulder
and started toward the "old Horn farm" !"
Meeting a man, he told him he was taking
his brother to a Deighbor's while he went
after doctor. The boy died.
There was no farm within four miles in
the direction in which the man was going
with the boy, while there was one within a
half mile in another direction. An investi-
CATION followed, and there was found
large quantity Of strychnine in the boys
stomach.
Chlebeard and his wife are now Ia Jail Oh
the charge Of murder and the well will be
examined, and it is expected that sensation
will be revealed, which will rival the crimes
of the Bender family.

Lectures on Romanism

Evangelist Leyden delivered his second
lecture on ROmanism, last evening. at Re
ception Hall, before an audience that filled
every seat and the doorways.
Mr.. Leyden had for his subject. "Why the
Roman Catholic Church condemns the
American Public Schools" He said that he
all the rights that belonged to him under the
Constitution of the United States, no more
and no less. He referred to the Roman
Catholic region as the composition of the
brainiest men OF the past 1900 years; the
work of the grea e;t minds for many centu-
ries; every detail carefully arranged to suit
each question. Its keystone is the infallibil:-
ity of the Pope. and by him its power is
vested in its bishops and priests. 1t has
dominated nations and made temporal power
subservient to its spiritual power. 1t has
had finger in every movement of the conti-
mental powers, the Imperialism of the Pope
being backed up by all the power Of Jesuit
ism.
Roman Catholicism is oppnsed to republi-
canism because republicanism guarantees
liberty of conscience. 1t is therefore direct.
ly opposed to the Constitution Of the United
States, which expressly guarantees this lib
erty to its citizens. The last syllabus Of
Leo XIII. distinctly reafirms the position
taken by Plus TX that "liberty Of conscience
pernicious error" The great bulwark
of the American Constitution, and conse-
quently of American liberty, is the public
school. But the Catholic religion does not
believe in the public school Itbelieves that
priest, and laymen should learn only that
which the church wishes them to learn. How
then are their ends to be attainedP Only by
crippling the public school system. Ii That
attempt proves successful. the Catholic re-
llgion in this country will wax stronger and
stronger in power, until eventually it may
become strong enough to strangle liberty It
self. Bishop Healy is the head OF the Ro-
man Catholic religion among us. He is a
gentleman, personally. said the speaker. who
has my respect, but he is subordinate to a
will greater than his own Thank God, said
Mr.. Leyden. l, who was $50 bound to this
despotlc power, am now free. have liberty
of conscience and the right to speak and
struggle for that constitution which guaran-
tees me life. liberty and the pursit Of happi.

MARYLANo's MisFoRTUNEs.
A Dishonest Treasurer and an ln-
competent Governor.

BALTIMORE, April 3.-The Hartford Coun-
ty Democrat, published by Street, one of
the bondsmen of State Treasurer Archer
will say tomorrow
The constitution requires the Governor to ex-
anime, under oath, the treasurer's books twice a
year. The code requires the Governor and comp.
iroller to count the Secures in the sinking fund
four times year and cancel state securities. 1t
Is currently beyed that none OF these things have
been done. Six hundred and twenty thousand
dollars of the treasury relief distracted were
state securities required by law to be cancelled
Had this been done, these securities could not
have been sold and the treasurer's deficit would
have been only half its present dimensions.
This article is accepted as a public notice
that the bondsmen will claim exemption
from liability for the misdeeds of Archer,
because of.the failure of the Governor and
state comptroller to perform this constitu-
tional duty. The American learns that
ArcheI's life insurance does not exceed
$1,000.
Attorney General WLyte renders an opin-
ion that the Governor will not be justified in
accepting the resignation of State Treasurer
Archer, pending the inquiry now in progress
by the legislative counsel.

HORACE GREELEYS OLD HOME BURNED.
Mementos of the Great Editor Saved
From the Blaze.
Years of Work In New York's Tunnel
Spoiled by Fire.
Children Locked In House Perish
In Smoke and Flame.

CHAPPAoUA. N. Y, April 3.-The old
Greeley homestead, built by Horace Greeley
in 1851, burned this morning. 1t was owned
by Miss Gabrielle Greeley. his only surviving
child. The house was in charge of Miss
Cleveland, a cousin to Miss Greeley. About
10 o'clock Miss Cleveland found the cellar in
flames The fire made such rapid progress
that Miss Cleveland and the servants could
save but little property. Some neighbors
managed to rescue most of the library, the
marble bust of Horace Greeley. and the only
picture of Mrs. Greeley in existence. The
property destroyed included much valuable
furniture. The secretary and other articles
which had been used by Horace Greeley
were saved. About $4,000 worth of jewelry
was in the house. A portion of it was iound
after the fire was extinguished. 1t is be-
lieved $4,000 will cover the loss.

Cumberland Gap has always been remark
ed upon by mineralogists and geologists as
the repository OF vast quantities Of ores, and
previous to the war furnace was In opera
tion here. The blight Of strife killed its
flames, and for twenty odd years nothing was
done TO develop the resources Of the district.
About three years ago number of the in
telligent and patriotic citizens of nearby
towns, headed by Mr.. Alexander A. Arthur,
Of Knoxville, Tenn, interested them selves
In the matter, collected the reports OF State
ge0loglsts and other reliable desert olive da-
ia, and on this basis succeeded In interesting
a number of prominent mine owners OF En-
gland in the property. Experts were sent
out to make more minute surveys. and as
their reports were most satisfactory, COM
pany, known as the American Association,
was formed, with paid In capital OF e400,-
OO0 and about 60.0O0 acres OF the iron, coal
and timber-bearing property In and about
the Gap were purchased: The properties lie
In the three States which join at the Gap,
viz. Kentucky. Tennessee and Virginia.
In the course OF the survey for iron a num-
Der Of deposits were discovered IN the noun
tains, all above the level Of the strsa ans,
easily workable and transportable cheaply
to the furnaces at the bases Of the mills.
There is also abundance OF coking coal and
timber, and OF limestone for fiuxing pur-
poses. The quantity Of ore at the Gap
alone Is estimated at 100000 tons. Fossil
ore Is found In Tennessee, Of which there
are In sight about 100000 tons. and proba-
ply ten times as much more accessible.
Brown hematites are reported, by experts
employed, to double the fossil ores in quanti-
W. vi red hematites about twenty million
tons are in sight, and underlying these are
carbonate deposits, fron which iron equal to
the best Scotch pig iron can be made. The
cost OF producing iron from these ores VIII
vary from Sc to IS per ton.
The oriskany ores in this section are rich
in quality and quantity. They have recent
ly been tested and found TO be even more
valuable than was at first imagined.
The American Association offers liberal
inducements for the establishment OF tur,
on a basis of ROYALTIES, particulars OF which
