Just a Pointer.

There are five men now living in
this county who have been convicted
of murder in the first degree by a
sworn Jury. Four of them are at large,
and the fifth is in Jail waiting for a
new hearing. The iuries who tried
these men were firmly convinced OF
their guilt. The Supreme court found
some technical error and through
this kind of justice (?) four of them
have been given their freedom. This
failure to punish crime begets mob
law.

a New SNfndle.

The police have discovered a new
swinlle that shows great ingenuity
among the criminals practicing it, and
is entirely novel. 1t is another evidence
OF the deep cunning of thieves. which
has been rendered keen and daring by
the intense competition among the class
who live on the confidence of others.
The new swindle takes in the cunning
pawnbrokers and the astute police detect
ives and is u marvel of artistic crime.
The scheme is as follows: A man who
bears @ good reputation, but whose mo-
rality is below the average, buys a fine
gold watch, which is distinctly marked,
so that it can be easily identified. He is
in league with q swindler, who takes the
watch and pawns it, then skips out with
the money. The owner of the watch
goes to the police, tells a plausible tale
of how he WIGS robbed and leaves q de-
scription Of his property. 1t is soon
found i'll The pawnshop and recovered,
If not practiced too often it is a very
good swindle. Confidence men without
local habitation travel around the coun-
try practicins this swindle. 1t is per-
fectly safe.
Ono represents himself as a travelling
man, a railroad man Or some other bird
of passage, and the otheris the unknown
thief. 1t is believed that this swindle has
been practiced successfully for some
time, but the police are now "watch-
ing" for suspicious 'scases."-St. Louis
Republic.

Lively BASS in Greenwood Lake.

Joseph R. Buchanan, of the American
Press Association, is spending the SUM
mer at Greenwood lake, and he goes out
fishing almost every evening. Wednes-
day night a boy was waiting for him
with his tackle when the up train reached
the lake.
Mr.. Buchanan began casting frogs on
the way to his boarding house, and failed
to get a single strike. AS he was nearing
his boarding house, in passing up West
Milford creek, which empties into the
lake, a bass broke water near the blade
of one Of his oars, and at the same in
slant the boy, who was sitting on the
stern seat, shouted, ga bass! a bass!"
Something was Tapping in the boat,
and upon lighting q match-for it was
dark-Mr. Buchanan found that he had
secured a large mouth bass weighing one
and a half pounds. The boy said that
the fish struck him on the breast. Mr.
Buchanan thinks the fish jumped at least
five feet out Of the water, and would
have gone completely over the boat had
it not hit the boy.-Cor. New York Sun.

A Great Combine.

This is a great age for 'trusts.'--
sugar trust, cordage trust, and numer-
GUS other s%yndicates, to which has
been given the slang name of "com-
bines." Some people think these are
all wrong, oppressors, monopolists,
and extortioners; others think them
beneficial by lowering prices. Then
there is the supposed "wheat COM
bine," which troubles the Alliance.
There is n great combine" howev-
er, which is in the highest degree
beneficial to the public, and here it is.

UNTIL the re-submission of the
prohibition act of this state to a
vote of the people, apart from any
other issue, we shall not be sur
prised at the ineffcctivcncss OF
the law which can be noted in
many parts of the state. A great
many people seem to have an
idea that prohibition would not
carry again in this state, or that
it would not have carried in the
first place had it been made a
separate issue. Perhaps it would
carry again and perhaps it would
not. But this doubt, and it is a
big one, is a positive impeachment
in the enforcement of the present
law, and the only way of getting
rid of this obstacle is by making
a special issue and taking a vote
of the people. If a majority like
the law they will vote to retain
it, and all good citizens will res
pcct it whether they believe it to
be the right OF wrong measure for
controlling the liquor traffic; on
the other hand if a majority dis
like the present law it will be SO
demonstrated and steps will be
taken to rid our statute books of a
measure which cannot help but be
an incentive to litigation and
strife under the feeling which eN-
lists among the people at the
present day.
