Mild Mansin Henry County

The wild man, who has been ter
rorizing somesections Of this county
for the last week, says a Paris spe-
ciaE of August II, has again been
heard from, this time in the sixth
district in the West Sandy River
bottom, s miles from this city. He
was seen and talked to by some
boys in that section late yesterday
evening. He appears at times to
be docile and afraid Of strangers,
and at others dangerous andthreat-
ening. He held up an old man by
the name Of Mossman at She Cha
lybeate, springs and gave him no
tice to leave, which he did without
standing on the order of his going.
Since then he has been seen to run
from achild. He told the boys who
saw him yesterday that he always
avoided railway stations. When
seen he is always in a bottom, and
by this means keeps out Of the way
of Sheriff Blakemore and Marshal
Nelson, who were after him yester-
day No further reports OF rob-
berries traceable to him have been
reported, though he might have
committed some depredations last
night. He is evidently, crazy, and
if not captured it is feared he will
hurt some one. He is very neatly
dressed, about twenty-five years old
and has blue eyes and light hair.
Who he is, what manner of man he
is, CT where he came from, is a mys.

that Karnes knocked him down to
his knees with the stick and while
IN that position be opened the large
blade of his knife, the blade Of
which is about 3 inches long.
The place where the difficulty
first began and where Karnes re-
ceiyed his last two wounds are
about 100 yards apart. Kornes
was cut in four different places,
one an inch below the left nipple,
another directly under that one,
Just below the ribs, one that a hand
could have been insertedin little
below the shoulder-blade to the
rear Either one of the three first
would have been fatal.
The trial took place before Mag
istrate CD. Wimberly, at 12o'clock
yesterday, and Estis was held I'M
der a $4,000 bond, in default of
which he is at present in jail. He
slept. soundly in the bottom Of the
wagon bed while being brought to
to town last NIGHT.
Karnes was Of good family, said
to be well off, and single man.
Estis is the son Of a widow, well
respected, but poor. Both men
were stout, able-bodied men, and
we'll liked where they were at work.

CONGRESSMAN STEWARD.
Some PeouIiarities Of the Member
From Illinois.


From Illinois.
Detroit Free Press.l
The story which is told Of Con-
gressman-elect Steward, of Illinois,
to the effect that every year he
takes all the children Of his village
(Plano) to the circus which comes
nearest that village is a true story,
but there are others equally true
which show the character of the
man fully as well. In 1880 or 1882
the Greenbackers of Illinois nomi-
mated Steward for governor and
the Democrats thought it would be
a good idea to endorse the nomina-
ton. Accordingly the chairman of
the State central committee took a
run down to Plano to see the eccen-
trio Lew. At the house the chair
man was told that he would find
Steward down in the grove. This
grove, by the.way, is embraced in a
considerable estate owned by Stew
ard, and is kept exclusively for pic
mic parties and camp-meetings, the
owner making no charge for the use
of the beautiful grounds. Whenthe
chairman reached a small stream
that runs thrSugh the grove he.saw
Steward on the other side chopping
down a dead tree. He called to
Steward and told him who he was.
"Come over" said Steward.
How'll | get across" asked the
chairman.
Cant you swim?''
"No."
"Well, I can; wait a minute"
In about that time Steward strip
ped and plunged into the water
with nothing but an old straw hal
for clothing. And for an hour he,
in that style of dress, sat on a log
with the chairman of the State CEN
trail committee and planned the cam
paign.
1t is also related of him that after
he was nominated for Congress the
chairman Of the Congressional dis
trict committee came to him to get
some money for campaign purposes.
"Notadollar," said Steward. II
understand that if | take a seat in
Congress I've got to swear that l
have spent no money for my cleo
ton, and I'm not going to Congress
to swear to lie"
The chairman explained that the
money was wanted for Legitimate
election purposes, such as theprint-
ing Of tickets, etc.
Hang the tickets, ;" said Stew
ard. eff my neighbors don't want
me to goto Congress badenough tc
write my name on their tickets ]
don't want to CO."
And nary red did this election
cost him.

Der, Estis being an employee Of
Kames. Both slept together and
were the best of friends. Karnes
