The Sewers.

Editor Of Wdtchmdn:-I think the vote
passed az the last village meeting, directing
the bailiffs to extend all sewer-pipes to the
bed of the river, a little hasty, as there are
many of the pipes that are two or three feet
above the water Now how are they to be
got to the water if tile is used? The cur
rent will break any connections made, and
if iron pipe is used it will stand till winter,
and then the ice will break the joints. If
any one has good suggestion to make, and
get the bailiffs out of hard job, they will
receive it with much pleasure. And now |
wish to ask question, and have all answer:
Would it not be a good plan to put dam
across the North branch, opposite the resi-
dence of Mr.. LoOmis, high enough TO Hood
back to the Lane Manufacturing Company
dam, and another just above State street,
raising the water to the foot of the first dam,
thereby covering all sewer-pipes, and pro-
vide big flood gate, so that at any time the
pond could be empted? 1t would improve
the looks of North branch as much as it
would cost If big sewer is necessary,
could we not put a three-foot iron pipe
down the North branch and connect all
sewer pipes with it, running it well out into
the Winooski, thereby getting rid of all
trouble with the river? This pipe could be
connected with the Lane Manufacturing
Company's pond, from which it could be
flushed in good shape at any time. This
could be done at less expense than TO
make two sewers to the Winooski. Now
that the people will think over these two
ways of getting GU Of the difficulty, and see
if one of them is not feasible, and help the
bailiffs out of bad job, is the hope of one of
them. II. c. WEBSTER.

Obituary.

RY.-Died, in Montpelier, May 26,
Edna Bell daughter of f, III. and Edna A.
Perry, aged ten years. Dear little Bell was
ever quiet, lovable child, fond of home and
her loved ones, thoughtful and womanly
beyond her years. Life was desirable to
her in every sense, and no words can ex-
mother and grandma feel, as they realize
they can see her no more. Beautiful in
form and feature, cherished with tenderest
care, yet she said goodbye to go at the
Savior's call and lie in her lowly bed under
the roses and violets, with which loving
hands, with tears, cover her grave in memory
of her favorite flowers. "Of such is the
kingdom of heaven" and we do hear her
say,
why mourn ye sof am not dead,
Though my body lies there sleeping,
My spirit bright in a home of light
Dwe1s free from all pain and weeping"

FOUR PERSONS SHOT.
Desperate Encounter With a Crazy
Drunken Man at Chicago.

The most sensational shooting sffray
which has occurred in Chicago for a
long time took place on the night of
the 9TH, Patrick Grove being the prin-
cipal. He succeeded in wounding a
woman slightly and two police officers
and citizen badly. One of the Off
GERS will probably die. Grove came
there from Omaha a short time ago
and had been working in packing
house. That night he wound up
protractcd spree in disreputable
house on Clark street. That afternoon
he demanded at the point of a revolver
from Annie Hall, in whose company
he was, jewels valued at 81 800, which
she had. The woman screamed and
Grove fired, the bullet lodging in the
fleshy part of her arm. Grove seized
the Jewelry and rushed toward the
street. AT the door he was met by
colored woman, whom he knocked
senseless with the butt OF the revolver.
He got away for the time being, and
later IN the afternoon pawned dia-
mond. Officer Linville, who had been
watching for him, met him at the door
of the pawushop and attempted to ar
rest him, but was instantly shot down,
the bullet passing through his face
and cutting his tongue in two. Grove
ran down the street followed by hun
dred citizens. Officer Brisco, located
several blocks down, attempted, with
drawn revolver, to stop the flying
man, but Grove promptly planted a
bullet in Brisco's breast and kept on.
Soon after he turned and discharged
the last cartridge at his pursuers, the
bullet striking G. 4. Cole in the arm.
At last Grove was cornered in blind
alley, but kept the crowd at bay with
the empty revolver until two detec-
tives stole march on him, knocked
him down and handcuffed him. Fully
a thousand people followed the trio to
the station, yelling Lynch him. but
the detectives landed him safely be-
hind the bars. Grove is supposed to
have been crazy from drink. He was
packing house employe in Omaha,
and according to his own statements is
of a respectable family and connections.
Grove is native of Davenport, Iowa,
where his wiio is at present. His
mother resides at West Side. Iowa,
and Magistrate King, of Omaha, is his
brother in-law.

LYNCHERS ON TRIAL;
Five Members of a Mob Charged
With Murder.

The unusual spectacle OF FIVE partic-
ipants in lynchipg being arraignel
for trial on the charge Of murder was
presented in the circuit court at White
hall, Wis. Judge Newman occupied
the bench. The accused are Bertha
Olson, Ole j. Hanson, Ole Sletto, Eb-
ner Oleson and Charles johnson. The
victim was Hans Jacob Olson, husband
OF the female prisoner. He was nc'er
do well, having served term in prison
for attempting to murder n family in
Blair. He had managed. however, to
accumulate II littleproperty, but which
in his opinion, had been mismanaged
by his wife during his enforced absence.
Accordingly when he returned from tue
state penitentiary he made things SO
unpleasant for his wife and children
that he was arrested, bound over TO
keep the peace and in default sentenc-
ed to six months in the county Jail.
On his release the prominent les;-
dents" Of the region concluded that no
might as well be put ont Of the way.
Accordingly on November Goth last,
some thirty of them went to his house
after Sabbath services had concluded,
dragged him out aud strung him up to
tree. His wife and children witness.
ed the awful sight. while his oldest
son, Elmer, actually assisted in pulling
the rope. Two days afterwards thir-
ty-onc OF the prominent residents, the
majority being people of considerable
means for this part of the country,
were arrested for participation in the
tragedy. twenty-five were held to
bail for riot and those who were an
raigned rs above for wilful murder.
II is claimed that the wife of the MUIR
dered man instigated the deed. Charles
johnson, leader of the lynchers, vir
tually gave up his life by pleading
guilty. Ole j. Hanson and Bertha
Olson, son and wife of the man who
was lynched, answered mot guilty."
Ole StettO presented a written state
ment when questioned, but finally re-
sponded mot guilty. 4. +. Frawley,
attorney for johnson, protested against
his clients plea of guilty OF murder
The prisoners were Immediately re-
manded, and johnson will receive a
life sentence for murder in the first
degree. The case of Ole Stetto, Ole j.
Hanson and Bertha Olson will proba-
bly, come up fortrial soon. The charge
of murder against Elmer Olson was
Withdrawn and that of riot substituted.
1t is understood that thirty-three of
the lynchers arrested on charge of riot
will plead guilty.

TOOK THE BANKS FUNDS.
a Missing Louisville Teller Causes a
Sensation

William III. Pope, teller in the Lou
isville City National bank, trusted
employee and frequenter OF the best So
cial circles of that city, is gonea HIS
absence from the bank at first excited
no comments, as it was supposed he was
at his sick sisters bedside, or in the
country detained by the food. When
no word was received from him for
some time. the officers of the bank be-
came suspicious and opened the vault.
A hasty examination showed that be-
tween $4,000 and 100000 IN large
bills were missing, the gold and silver
coin being left intact. A careful ex-
animation will be required to get at
the entire amount Pope took with him.
Ii was learned that Pope left on the
train for Chicago, where ii is supposed
he stopped with his brother Samuel,
leaving there for Canada. Pope was
3S'years old and had been with the
bank since 1881. He had been leading
DIR. Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde life for
many years, as many OF his compan-
ions are aware. 1t was learned later
that Pope did not go to Chicago, as it
was thought, but left for Cincinnati,
where it is believed he took train for
Detroit. 1t is rumored that the car
riage that took Pope from his room,
contained n woman. The Fidelity &c
Casualty Trust Co. of New York, was
Pope's surety for $4,000. The COM
pany will spend twice the amount of
Pope's bond to secure his arrest, the
agent states. The bank officials state
the amount OF ENLIGHTENMENT in round
numbers is 100000 and they think
Pope carried that amount with him.

A MINISTER IN TROUBLE.
Charged With Embezzlement of
Church Funds.

The elders OF the Methodist con-
ference of the st, Joseph. Mo-, district
are in a state of excitement owing to
the course of the Rev. j. I. Dobbs,
until recently pastor of st. Paul's mis-
sion in st. Joseph. The Rev. Dobbs
has been active in church work for the
past ten years, and has built, by his
efforts, two churches in st. Joseph.
The minister is charged with embez-
element of funds belonging to the
church, false representations concern
ing the financial affairs of the church,
and conduct unbecoming christian.
A month ago the Rev. Dobbs announc-
ed that he had renowned the Metho-
dist creed and seeded to the Congre-
gationat fold, and was recently in
stalled as pastor of a small congrega-
tion OF that faith at Cameron. 1t now
transpires that his withdrawal from
the Methodist conference followed a
compulsory resignation from his Meth
odist charge. The accused was inter-
viewed, but refused to make any state
ment beyond claim that money used
by HIM was due him from the church,
and he appropriated the missionary
fund TO his own use. 40

A CANADIAN MYSTERY.
sensational Disappearance or A
Young English Farmer.


New and sensational developments
are cropping up in connection with the
Benwell tragedy at Woodstock, Ont,
ana the question now is whether there
have not been at least two victims.
Two or three years ago u young En-
glishman, Neville Ii. Pickthall, came
there and purchased farm, and about
four months ago married the daughter
OF minister. On February 10 Pick
thall raised 81 900 on q mortgage on
his farm and left saying TO his wife,
II am going to double this money be
fore | come back He was seen at
Niagara Falls that night and said he
was going 10 New York TO meet sis
ter. The testimony in Burchelrs en-
animation showed he reached New
York and there met the Burchells,
Since then no trace of him has been
found and no word received from him.
The theory now is that he was enticcd
to Now York by Burchell with the ex-
pectation OF making large sum OF
money and was put out OF the way for
the money he carried with him. Mr..
and Mrs. BurChell are charged with the
murder of 7. &. Bcnwell at Princeton,
on February IL Burchell induced
Benwell and Douglas Peelcy, young
Englishmen, to come to Ontario AMI
take hand in the management of II
large stock farm which Burchcll said
he owned there. The stock farm was,
of course, imaginary. BurchelI, who
was resident Of London, found Peeley
and Benwell by means of advertise
ments in the newspapers. On arriving
in Canada from England, i'll The middle
of February, Burchell and his party ut
once went to Buffalo. Then Burchell
and Benwell went on ahead to the
"stock farm" TO prepare things for the
coming of Mrs. Burchell and Peeley.
Burchell came back and said that Ben
well was disgustel with the farm and
had gone on further west. A few days
later Peeley saw in a newspaper the
account of the finding of the body Of II
man near Princeton, Ont, who had
evidently been murdered. Near the
body was found II cigar case with
Benwell's full name on 1t. Peeley
insisted that Burchell go and sco If
the body was Benwell. Burchell very
reluctantly identified the body as that
of the young Englishman. Burchell
was arrested and the keys to Benwell's
trunks Were found in his possession.
The evidence against Burchell is very
strong. but wholly circumstantial. 1t
has been proved that,the story about
his property by means of which he in
duced tho young Englishman to come
are absolutely untrue; that his state
mcnts and conduct since coming TO
this country with Benwell and Peeley
have been one unbroken series OF lies
and receptions, and that almost every
statement he made since his arrest has
been a lie.
