INGRAM TAKEN AWAY.
An Officer from Martinsburg Comes
on to Claim His Mon.
U. S. AUTHORITIES Do NOT LIKE IT,
But their Objection Is too Into to be
Observation-Disclosures says he never
Committed u Forgery In his Life,
but did do Wrong ut Winchester
once.

Yesterday morning the chief OF police
OF Alartinsburg arrived here to claim
the old swindlcr, McGrann, wanted ut
that place for obtaining money on bo-
gus check. He went to the Jail and the
prisoner was turned over to him, Pros
ccuting Attorney Howard telling the
jail authorities that lie was in their Gus
toby by virtue OF the commitment by
Squire Ankle, and therefore u prisoner
Of the State and not OF the federal au-
thoritics. The officer did not wait TO
see what the United States officers
might think OF tho matter, but left on
the next train for MartinsburS, and
when along in the afternoon United
States Marshal White and Deputy De.
vine called at the Jail to see the man,
he was far on his way to Martinsburg
to answer for his misdceds there. ~
Marshal White was very much dis
pleased by the turn affairs had taken,
but it is not known whether he will put
in n claim for the man. Tho fact is that
McGrann was prisoner under formal
commitment by justice OF the peace
when Deputy Marshal Dcyinc arrested
him, and tho jailer had no right to let
him out OF his custody, but the fact
that he did SO does not affect the legal
status Of his Imprisonment.
Several more inquiries were received
concerning McGrann Saturday. An.
other case OF his passing bogus checks
turned up, this one being in Pennsyl-
vania. Before he was taken away the
old man said he had never been guilty
OF forgery in his life, and that they
could not convict him OF any crime at
either Martinsburg or Washington
City. lie admitted that at Winchester,
Va, he had obtained small sum OF
money by false pretcnscs, and said that
lie supposed they could send him 10 jail
Tor few days there, but he did not fear
any serious punishment. lie says he
was drunk when ut Winchester, or he
would not have done wrong. 1t is evil
dent that the old fellow is quite rs good
L liar as he has been represented TO be.
Marshal White returned to Parkcrs-
burg to consult Judge Jackson as to the
proper proceeding in the promises.

WORTH A SILVER SPOON.

A Swarm of Bees That Didn't Get Away
Very Farther Former Hive offered to
Their Captor-Italian Immigrants of a
Pauper Kind.
This is great country and Pittsburg is as
great In its way and as metropolitan in char
acter as the country itself. Not only are the
Italians swarming hither, as haven of
work and refuge, in large numbers, but even
the Italian bees have caught the idea, on the
wing, as it were, and are acting accordingly.
A swarm of Italian bees that settled in the
rocks, near the Union depot Monday, has
found that this is land flowing with milk
and honey.
1t was left for a DISPATCH reporter, who
doesn't pretend to be more than an amateur
in the wisdom of bees, to trace the wander
ings of that swarm and to clear up the mys-
terry of their sudden appearance from-no
one knows where.
Mr.. johnson, their captor, was right as to
their nationality. They came from we'll
known apiarist in Friendship, n. Y, and for
a month past had been on exhibition in the
lroof summer garden of Harry Davis
Museum. There, in an observation nlve,
they had been industriously working: Their
operations had been watched through
the glass sides of the hive by many
curious and interested spectators. They
had been privileged guests, anu
made welcome to go and come
as they pleased. In the ripeness of time they
decided to swarm the other day and to
"seek fresh fieldsand pastures new" 1t was
thus. through an open window and with no
obstacles in their way, that they h1ed away.
Manager Carlisle, however, says that not
only is Mr.. johnson entitled to his bees for
his pains (although it is not reported that he
received any stings), but that he can also
have the special hive designed for their use
bv applyinc for it, This prize is offered as
perhaps even more appropriate than a silver
spoon, which the old rhyme has 1t a swarm
in June is worth. The lines are doubtless
familiar to many:
swarm in MAY is worth a ton OF hay;
swarm in June is worth a silver spoon;
A in InlY ism L worth fly.
