Jesse Lancaster, the colored man who was de-
tected week ago after having broken into the
cottage OF II. b. Moulton and afterward made
his escape, last night surrendered himself to
sheriff Fairan at Gaithersburg and was this
morning brought here by that officer and
lodged in jail II is said that Lancaster has
confessed to being guilty of entering number
OF cottages at Washington Grove and taking
articles therefrom. Since his detection in the
crime he has been wandering about and sleep
ing in the woods. but the cold weather finally
induced hi IN to surrender and take the conse-
queuces. II Is likely that he will remain in
jail until the March term Of the circuit court.

engaged the attention of the people of the

practical advantage. The great difficulty ap-

proving the roads. but few in favor of in

could be devised by which good highways could
be secured without additional outlay it would
be immensely popular, not only in this county

Julia Hall,s Return Homa.

While the devoted parents Of the missing
Julia Hall were in consultation with q score Of
sympathizing friends in the parlor of the Hall
homestead at New Canaan, Conn, about II
O'Clock last night devising means and measures
for the prosecution of the search for the miss
ing daughter the young woman suddenly ap-
peared before them. Her appearance created
almost as much CONSERVATION for the moment
as her disappearance. Miss Hall was decidedly
taciturn, even to her fathers inquiries, and she
paid not the slightest heed. and neither by
word or gesture vouchsafed reply. At length
when all effort 8 to get any information from,
her had been abandoned, she opened her
mouth. She then simply said: 81 was exceed
ingly miserable when I left home. and went
away because wished to be alone. That Is ALL +"
After giving this statement she relapsed into
a condition of absolute silence.
1t has just leaked out that Miss Hall A.
tempted to take her own life for the first time
about three weeks before Thanksgiving by
jump into well upon her fathers premises.
She was gotten out in safety and the general
impression at the time was that she had simply
fallen into the well. Another interesting fact
that likewise came out is that Miss Hall told
her father that during her absence of two weeks
ago she took an overdose Of laudsnum and was
for thirty-six hours under its influence. Here
tofore the girls parents had been reticent as to
the girls mental condition, but the facts given
out seem to indicate that she is hopelessly in
sane. and doubtless measures will be taken to
prevent another disappearance Of this char
acter.

Held for the Grand jury,

John H. Henderson, a colored man from Mis-.
sissippi, who is clerk in the pension and rec
ord division Of the War Department, was
prisoner in the Police Court Saturday. False
pretenses was the charge against him and $50
was the amount Of money involved. Lawyer
w. H. H. Hart was tine prosecuting witness and
he charged that the preteuse under which the
money was obtained was that his Henderson, g.
mother-in-law ives dying. During the hearing
Of the case it came out that instead of his
mother-in-law it was his grandmother -in-law
and she subsequently died.
A letter written by the defendant was offered
n proof and Lawyer Kicks, who appeared for
c defendant, walked over to the desk to ex-
DIT the letter to his client and he showed il
10 the wrong prisoner, but that made no differ
ence, for the other man said the signature was
his own. The mistake created laugh among
those in court. The prisoner charged said il
was his signature. After hearing the evidence
OF several witnesses the court held Henderson
in $500 real estate security to await the action
Of the grand jury.
