Caldwell enthusiasts went there last
Sunday, and got it in the neck" in the
most approved style, the score standing
10 to 4 in favor of the Web-footers.
The Caldwell boys claim they were
ratified and played a very "bum" game,
and invited Baker City to play at Cald-
we'll tomorrow and give them another
trial. The proposition was accepted
and the Caldwell team expect to have
their revenge.
LATER.-A dispatch from Baker
City yesterday morning announces that
four men which played with them last
Sunday have left, and so weakened
their nine that they are afraid to come.
Hence no game tomorrow.

AN INNOCENT MAN HANGED.
Evidence that Patsy Devine Suffer
ed Death for Another's Crime.

Interest at Alton, ILL., has been revived
in the case OF Patsy Devine, an Alton
boy who was hanged at Clinton, De-
Witt County, Ill.,, some years ago for
the MURDER OF Aaron Goodfellow oil
Bloomington. All through the trial
Devine protested his innocence OF the
crime and on the scafrold reiterated
the statement that he was guiltless of
the deed for which he was about to
suffer death. Sometime ago Mrs. De.
vine, mother of Patsy, received II
communication from priest at Still
water, Mimi, who heard the confes
sion of dying convict. The dying
man, among other things, told that
Patsy Devine of Alton, had been
hanged for a crime which he never
committed, and he requested the priest
to write to Mrs. Devinc and inform her
OF that fact. An effort was made TO
have the priest give the convict's
name, but this was refused on the
ground that he had told as much as
tho rule of the confessional would al
low. and that 1t was enough for Mrs
Devine to know that her son was in
nocent of the killing of Aaron Good
fellow" The last chapter comes from
Springfield. At the trial Mrs. Brown
and her daughter Nellie were the
main witnesses for the prosecution.
Since then Nellie Brown has become
nearly maniac from opium and
whisky. She was for few days locked
up in the Springfield Jail. In her
rawlings she constantly referred to the
Devine case and declares she was told
to swear as she did.

ed on warrant charging him with
obtaining money under false pretences
in having had cashed a check for
about $l7 which was returned by
Cashier Donald OF the Hanover
National bank after the passage of the
silver law with a refusal to honor it.
When the silver pool investigating
committee met Owenby's attorney
withdrew the objection to inquiry as
to whether his client had not been at
one time arrested and acquitted.
Owenby was then released by the
committee,
David Il. Little was recalled. He
did not remember ever having stated
to Owenby that any senators and rep
resentatives were interested in silver,
and did not believe he ever did, for
it had not been true, except as to Sena-
tor Cameron.
Charles S. Bradley, cashier of the
National Bank OF the Republic OF
Washington, presented checks on the
Hanover bank aggregating 1915,
which had been paid by him to Owen.

Gambling Scrape.

Gambling Scrape.
The London Star says that the
Prince OF Wales will shortly appear as
u witness In Il court OF law. During
the st. Ledger race week the prince
stayed at Arthur Wilson's house mt
Doncaster. During his stay the prince
seems to have played at baccarat with
n wealthy baronet and others. During
a certain evening the baronet referred
to was accused OF cheating. He fatty
denied the charges. The Prince of
Wales, dreading unpleasant notoriety
and disagreeable radical press com.
ment, interposed and settlement was
affected. One of tho stipulations was
that the accvsed baronet should give
u written undertaking not to play
cards for money in the future. On the
other hand the baronets accuser
agreed not to mention the unpleasant
occasion. But it seemed baronet
found that the charges were soon pub
licly discussed and commented apou
in arts ocratic London clubs. The bar
onet has served the members of the
committee, who watched his actions
while playing, with writs in an action
for libel. The baronet has retained
Mr.. Gill. and the committee Sir
Charles Russell In the meanwhile
the military baronets fellow officers
have IN the kindest manner advised
him TO retire from the service, pend
ing the result OF the trial. This he
has done.
