DON'T WANT OGEE LYNCHFD.
Up to 10 O'Clock tonight Allie Ogee had
not been captured; at least. 1t is ot known
that he has been. The pursuing party is
still out. and, it is believed, they are still on
the bandits trail Ogee had such q short
start that it is not believed be will be able
to escape. He. however, is we'll acquainted
with the Wind country, south of here. in the
Indian Territory. where the bandits have
their headquarters. 1t may be that he can
thus elude his pursuers. The capture of
Ogee is particularly desirable, because he
being the only surviving member of the
gang, ia believed to be the only person who
knows the hiding-place OF the great treas
nre which they have accumulated during
tho years of their outlawry. They could
not have spent all their ill-g0tten money
even if they had lived among the luxuries
of civilization. AS it was. they were
hiding the greater part of their criminal
career. and have had no opportunity TO
spend money. The location of the treasure
Is therefore matter of great interest and
IL is believed Ogee can be made TO reveal lt
if he Is caught. This phase of the case has
only Just now presented itself to the peo-
pie, and it doubtless has not occurred to
Ogees pursuers at all. 1t is feared that in
the excitement and indignation they will
take summary vengeance upon him before
ascertaining from him where the treasure
is hidden.
1t was sscertained late tonight that
Emmett Dalton is not dead. He is slowly
dying in n room at the hotel here. and his
death is expected at any moment. The IN.
dignation against the robbers became 80

A New Bible,

We are to have new translation of
the books of the Bible, both the Old and
New Testaments. It is to be called in
photography the American Bible. A
distinguished band of professors and
scholars, the most noted in Europe and
America, will prepare the translation,
each taking charge of one of the books.
Professor G. A. Briggs, who goes in 80
powerfully for what is called among
Biblical scholars the "higher CRITICISM"
and who has been disciplined in the Pres
byterian church therefor. will translate
the Book of Ruth. President W. R.
Harper, of the Chicago university, will
translate Zachariah, and assist In edit
ing the whole work. The editor in chief
is the well known Hebraic scholar Of
Johns Hopkins university, Professor
Paul Haupt. Professor W. H. Ward,
editor of the New York Independent,
undertakes the book Of Habakkuk. The
Apochrypha and the rejected scriptures
will have their place in the new trans
lation.
The learned gentlemen having charge
of this vast work will bring to bear
upon it all the light of modern criticism
and research. Especially will they en-

A new kind of street ear motor has
been invented by an engineer in New
port, KY, that may be an improvement
on all present ones, If it will work. The
motor is constructed on the clutch
or watch spring principle. At every
click, instead of unwinding slightly
watch or clock spring, it simply
unwinds spring that forces forward
the wheels of street car. The
springs are loaded upon the car
itself, which consequently requires no
grip, cable or electricity. The springs
will run the car for seven miles, it is
saidt after which they are again wound
up by machinery at a power house. The
wheels of the gearing machinery are
made of high aluminium alloy, making
them of light weight. The motor ap-
paratus consists of a series of thirty
steel springs, one after the other un-
winding. The springs are made of No.
12 wire and each is of one horse power.
The springs are geared to a clutch on
the axles,

PRICE THREE CENTS.
HOW Il EeClS to BE Shni.

Captain George l.. Kilmer, who was
himself hit by musket ball in front of
Fredericksburg heights, writes q paper
in The Popular Science Monthly on the
first thoughts and actions of wounded
men. 1t seems that these are very con-
Trajectory, Ordinarily when a soldier
receives hurt there is trembling of
the body, attended with faintness, nau-
Sea, pallor and face full of anxiety and
distress. But in times of intense excite
ment this is reversed. Under slight
wound the symptoms named may occur.
But when the whole soul is wrought up
with battle ardor the soldier may receive
a mortal hurt and it affect him no more
than a pin prick. He may not even
know of it at all.
A terrible instance of this kind is
quoted by Captain Kilmer, from King
lakes story of the charge of the Light
Brigade at Balaklava. Captain Nolan,
aid to the division general, knew of the
valley of death" the Six Hundred were
entering, and sought to draw them off
toward the line of fianking redoubts,
which was the real point of attack for
them. He waved his sword frantically
in the air, riding recklessly around the
head of the advancing column, shout
ing; This wayl For heavens sake, not
that wayr' That instant fragment of
shell struck him in the breast, tearing it
open. He must have been a dead man
on the instant, yet his fiery soul domi-
mated his corpse for a moment still.
The sword dropped, yet his sword arm
remained in the air, his body sat erect
in the saddle. His horse turned and
galloped back. At that moment there
burst from Nolans lips most awful
and unearthly cry. Yet the rider must
have been unconscious already. King
lake says, ''The shrek men heard rend-
ing the air was scarce other than the
shrek of corpse
A marvellous instance of the power of
mind to dominate body is given in the
brief account of the death of A. Sidney
Johnston at Shiloh:
General A. s. Johnston at Shiloh was en-
gagged in a campaign for the recovery Of terri
tory valuable to the Confederacy. He had
been transferred from the east to supersede
other generals. His fame was at stake. He
had engaged upon one Of the most daring and
delicate enterprises known in warfare-a sur
prise Of bis enemy, to end in wholesale
slaughter or capture of the routed hosts on the
banks Of bridgeless river. The movement
carried well up to point. There q Union di-
vision showed what Johnston pronounced stub
bornness- His men hesitated, and he went
personally with one brigade in charge. The
charge succeeded, and he drew back to bring
up another brigade when a musket ball sew
cred an artery in his leg. He made no sign,
but kept on giving orders and watching events
until spectators saw that he was pale He was

The Kansas Cyclone.

Wellington, Kansas was visited
last Friday night by terrific cyclone
and some eight or ten persons were
killed and twice as many injured.
The following press dispatch gives a
vivid description of the disaster:
The destruction of life and havoc
to property wrought by Friday nights S
cyclone is terrible. The light of day
a distinct and awful realization Of its
scope. The loss of life is appalling,
and the ruin to property great.
The storm came from the south
west and approached the city with a
rotary motion, appearing to be some
distance over the town. When it
reached here it descended upon the
center of the city with appalling
force, suddenly lifted, sucking every
thing in it's grasp and as suddenly
dropping it. Trees were torn from
their roots, houses turned around and
stoves actually lifted until they land
ed on the upper floors of the ruins.
Freight cars which stood on the track
on the Rock Island railroad were
picked up and carried a distance of
200 feet. In one instance, a horse
was actually taken from the ground
and carried to the top of Il two story
building. A little child was taken
out of it's cradle, carried distance of
two blocks and deposited upon the
ground without being injured.
The loss of property in this city
will be S500,000, as mostly all of the
large stocks of goods were destroyed
BY the cloudburst which followed the
tornado after it had taken all the
roofs away. Reports from the coun-
try to the west are very discouraging
and while there is no detailed news
from the country in the immediate
vicinity of the city, the indications
are that the damage is serious. 1t is
safe to say that 100 buildings are
complete wrecks, while $50 more are
partly wrecked.

street or elsewhere, always accompa-

acquainted with the people up this
way than he was. One informant,
a wide-awake, intelligent gentleman,
gives this scene that he saw played
several timmes over, on the corner of
Bank block:
Henchman to Fuller, "Here comes
a man you want to see, Mr.. - of

got along Fuller would step out, make

the most cordial manner, "why, how

What Others Say.
st. Johnsbury Republican:


What ought we to demand of q
candidate for Governor ?
He should be man of more than
common ability, which Col. Fuller is
not. He should be a popular man,
who would bring out full vote,
which Col. Fuller is not. He should
be man who is at least the equal of
the Democratic candidate, Col. b.
b. Smalley, in brains and strength,
which Col. Fuller is not-in popular
patlance "Brad" Smalley forgets
more every night than Col. Fuller
ever knew and do we want candi-
date whom we would be ashamed to
compare with the Democratic nomi-
nee -? Col. Fuller
is rich man and wants to be Gov
ernor. That is all there is of it.
Rutland Herald:
Col. Fuller would never have been
thought of for governor if he had not
pushed himself, he is man of small
mental stature and could do absolute
ly nothing as a candidate apart from
his money. Nobody does or can dis
pute that simple statement, and sure
ly it ought to end the question.
Hardwick Gazette:
Why is the democratic press of
Vermont enthusiastically in favor of
the nomination of l.. X. Fuller for
governor by the republicans Why
is the democratic press of Vermont
always heartily in favor of the noml-
nation by the republicans of their
very weakest man Why are the
democrats solid for Fuller !? The
fact that they are is one of the most
important and conclusive facts yet
noted. Fuller organettes, please ex-
plain.
